"I have to say that your spell is indeed commendable, but you misjudged their situation."
While the group was resting on their way back, Ritz looked at Kassadin's wife who could not wake up, and explained to Li Ke why he could not save this woman.
"Her soul and part of her body have been changed. Well, I don't know if you know, but no matter who it is, whether it's an animal, a human, or a Vastaya, their body and blood have ancient memories, as well as the knowledge of how the body should be and how it should operate. The void distorted this part and erased it. So even if you restore her body, her soul and the remnants of her body will forever be missing this part. "
Ritz withdrew his hand from the woman's forehead, and the light blue spot on the woman's forehead disappeared. After Li Ke sorted out a little, he understood what Ritz meant.
The woman's genes had mutated, and the matching port of her soul and body had also changed. It was like using an i9 processor to run XP, and then wanting it to run a triple-A masterpiece after 2020 perfectly and smoothly. Although the hardware allowed it, the software was no longer possible. But understanding was one thing, Ritz still did not say how to solve the problem. So, under Kassadin's excited gaze, Li Ke asked this question.
"So, how can I cure them?"
Ritz looked at Kassadin, then looked at Li Ke, and then spread his hands.
"The solution is very simple. Either wait until your Life Magic is further improved, and you can restore her bloodline and repair the distortion of her soul so that she can become a human again. Or let her regrow her body in a distorted way. In this way, not only can she wake up, but the problem of this man can also be solved. There is just one thing. From then on, their bodies will have certain characteristics of Void creatures, and they will be eroded by the power of the Void. They may become those Void monsters … So, if possible, it's best to maintain the status quo and wait for your magic to be perfected. "
The answer he gave made Kassadin lower his head. He originally came with the last hope, but now Ritz's words directly gave him the deepest despair. No matter how much he loved his wife, he understood that it was impossible for him to let Li Ke continue to extend his wife's life. So in other words, if he did not choose the second path, he would have to wait for Li Ke's magic to be perfected in this year. Or he could restrain the inconveniences in his body and display the ability that Li Ke could not give up, establishing boundless achievements for him.
"So, if I focus on magic now, how long will it take to reach that level?"
Li Ke also thought of this, so he asked with a little expectation.
"Ah, this? Come, do it with me … Alright, now imagine the surrounding energy surging into this ring and starting to burn. "
Ritz first pursed his lips, then taught Li Ke a hand gesture and some spells. But when Li Ke imitated his movements and tried to release a flame spell that Ritz easily released, he found that he had no talent in this area at all. Even Sivir, who was watching at the side, drew a circle in the air. Although she did not summon flames, it was not far from it. A spark flashed in her hand, but it did not condense into flames.
And himself?
There was nothing.
And regarding this ending, Ritz did not seem surprised. He just nodded and gave an answer that Li Ke did not know what to say.
"Very good. If you just keep practicing hard, then you'll probably need more than two hundred years. Just the basic course alone will take you about thirty years … But don't worry, a qualified mage will take about this long to complete the basic course. And because this kind of magic is considered your innate magic, this time can be reduced by about five years. "
Obviously, this answer still made the atmosphere more solemn. Kassadin had lost the last trace of color on his face. He did not expect Li Ke to extend his wife's life by two or three years, and this fifteen-year length was also a death sentence for his wife.
In other words, they only had one choice left.
"But I'll say the ugly words first. Void creatures are one of the biggest threats to this world, so you'd better not do anything that will make people worry … And don't forget that there are people watching you from the sky."
Kassadin's change in mentality naturally could not be hidden from Ritz, so after saying this, he left directly to check on the surrounding situation so that he could leave earlier when it was time to leave. As for what happened to Kassadin's family, although he pitied them, since it had nothing to do with his duty, it had nothing to do with him.
Unless they had become void creatures.
"… I'll stay here for a long time, Kassadin. And as long as there are enough small animals, this kind of thing won't be a burden to me. And although he said so, as the first country in history to resist the Void, there might still be a solution. "
Li Ke did not want Kassadin, the person who resisted the Void in history, to embrace the Void now because it was really too ironic. And Kassadin looked at him gratefully, then hugged his daughter, Kesha, who still did not want to speak, and nodded with difficulty.
"I … I understand … I'll make the right choice."
His vocal cords were still unable to be used normally, so his speech was always so hoarse, and he would not speak under normal circumstances. He would only speak when he was facing Li Ke or when he was telling his daughter a bedtime story.
"I'll find a way."
Kassadin touched his daughter's purple hair, and his eyes shone with hatred. Of course, he knew that Shurima was the first mortal country to face the Void, and he also knew some of the cruelty of the ancient war, so he was actually more aware than Li Ke of the fate of those who were infected by the power of the Void. They would gain great and magical power, but as a price, their consciousness would be constantly weakened under the corrosion of the Void. When they could no longer resist the whispers, they would turn into monsters or become the pawns of the Void.
And even if he wanted to find Shurima's knowledge about the Void in the ancient ruins, he had to sneak into the tombs and places that had long been corroded by the Void and obtain the treasures in those places that had been eroded by the Void.
In other words.
"I need power."
Kassadin made up his mind as he looked at his wife, who began to smile because of Li Ke's vitality, and his daughter, who had been silent because of the Void.
"Even if I'm the only one who will fall into hell."
