He Comes From the Void

After they rowed a hundred meters in one breath, the two looked behind them again.

The storm stopped at the edge of the island, but the terrible presence at its center was also revealed. Some strange creatures appeared, they were not spirit bodies condensed by dark clouds, but real existences.

Some looked more normal, like savages, with blood-stained brown skin and hair clumped together with grime. Some were naked, others wore bearskins or rags.

Then there are the beasts, mostly bears, of various shapes and colors. Human souls trapped in the bodies of these beasts, all once spirit walkers, now trapped in the ruthless bear form, forgetting that they were once human.

Then there are all sorts of nightmarish monsters, like ghosts in the clouds above. Maybe they used to be human, but now they have been devoured by the ruthless bear spirit, without the appearance of normal animals. On the bearlike body was a decayed elk skull, surrounded by a mane of black feathers. Next to it stood a giant bear with a double chin, from which grew another mandible full of sharp teeth, between which filthy brown mucus was oozing.

These creatures stood in a messy row along the coastline, without making any sound, watching the boat away from the island, exuding an incomparably silent terror.

"What kind of monsters are these..." Kai'Sa swallowed nervously, the viscous saliva carried the sour taste of exhaustion.

"We broke into the territory of the bear people, and these are all bear people. They were all people once, and these are the three forms of their transformation from human to monster, but they are all driven by a common consciousness, which is Spirit Bear."

Kahn looked at these monsters across the sea with a serious expression. Even without his spiritual vision, he could feel the human souls trapped in these creatures, but the self-awareness of these souls was wiped out by the more powerful spirit bears. In the silence, they turned into walking corpses, reduced to bodies controlled by the bear spirit, fanatically following the war.

"What about Spirit Bear's main body..."

"Volibear, a giant bear who has received thousands of knives and guns. It is an existence older than the three ice sisters, and its anger is unmatched..."

Before Kahn could finish speaking, behind the bear man, Annie first saw the outline of the huge bear-shaped creature gradually solidify, revealing its true face.

It was a city of muscles, and every limb supporting it was thicker than a human body. On its back and shoulders rested dozens of battered weapons, all rusted with age and leaping with crackling arcs.

"Thunder roars, thunderstorm rolls, and it represents the fury of the Freljord itself. Warriors call it Volibear, and they need its unbridled power to win battles and worship, slay, and die for it. The herdsmen call it barren, and call it Valhal, because it will destroy all traces of civilization, return the land to a barbaric posture, and allow human beings to live wildly like wild beasts."

The giant bear looked down at the boat that was drifting away, and suddenly let out a growl. Its hair stood on end, and lightning raged through its flesh. Its scars were glowing, and its muscles, hair, and sinews and bones began to separate, only the endless lightning within it connected them. Thunderbolts poured out of its mouth, as if it was about to explode in the next moment.

Although the momentum was huge, it did not cause any actual harm to Kahn and the others. Only Annie was so frightened that she cried loudly with tears in her eyes.

"They can't wade through the water, we're safe." Kai'Sa comforted Annie, the bears didn't leave their territory, and just let them sail away from the island. The rain was gradually obscuring their vision as they made their way through the storm, away from the peaceful eye of the storm.

"Everyone is a bear, why can't these bears be as friendly as Tibbers?" Annie's childish words popped out of her mouth, she couldn't understand what she had experienced today.

"It's different." Kai'Sa smiled bitterly. Could it be the same?

The witch's maternal love is poured into Tibbers' body, and the giant bear and the bear people it leads are the fanatical incarnations of wildness and war, and they naturally need awe and blood sacrifice.

They passed through the storm, far away from the bear man's territory, and came to the calm sea. Annie fell asleep because of exhaustion. Kaisha opened her bitter throat and sighed softly: "Fortunately, I escaped. For the first time in my life, I felt this kind of silent anger."

From Kahn's mouth, she gradually understood what kind of existence Volibear was.

Legend has it that Volibear and his demigod brethren have competed across the land long before the mortal races came into the world. The Freljord originally had no ice, snow, or dark clouds, just a barren and cold land. It was the demigods who used their actions to shape the land into what it is today. Many mountains, rivers, ice and snow are all phenomena caused by their activities.

"Let's break into Volibear's territory, Frost Priests with bad intentions."

The first rays of sunlight hit his face at dawn, and Kahn couldn't help squinting his eyes, but his head is still awake.

As a Frost Priest, it is impossible to be unaware of the dangers of the bear man's territory, but he did not give them any warning before setting off, and his heart can be punished.

"If we die here, who will help Lissandra deal with the Watcher?" Kai'Sa asked.

"I don't know, go back and ask him carefully, don't blame me for turning my face if you can't answer."

After spending a day and night on the sea, the boat landed again at the dock of the Frosthorn Tribe.

There were many people around the pier, and they cheered as they watched the boats return with a full load. Kahn patrolled the noisy crowd for a week, but he didn't see the figure of the Frost Priest among them.

He was very dissatisfied, shouted the name of the Frost Priest, and threatened to kick all the meat into the sea without seeing anyone. A child saw it and hurried back to the station to call the Frost Priest, so Kahn confronted him on the spot across the pier.

"Why did you let us go to such a dangerous place without notifying us in advance? It caused us to be hunted down by bears, and we almost couldn't come back."

"Danger means opportunity. How can you bring back so much food if you're not in the bearman's territory?" the Frost Priest replied without haste.

"They're not cheering for the food." Kahn looked around. Although these people couldn't understand their conversation, it didn't prevent them from celebrating on their own.

"Yes, you killed a Gruffin, and they are cheering for the strong." The Frost Priest raised his hands, and the applause became louder and louder.

It's just that Kahn didn't appreciate it. He said coldly: "The Frost Horn Tribe is not as short of food as you said, you lied!"
