"That's because everyone's situation is different."
After Li Ke finished speaking, he realized that he had nothing to say to Zhao Xin, who was relatively quiet. After all, the two of them had never met before, and there was even some friction between them.
And most importantly, the two of them had something in common that was a little awkward. Two gladiators who did not think that killing was an honor. How could they talk about how they were tortured by the Noxus people? Then you would say, "Ah, the Noxus people's whip is really cruel." Then I would say, "Indeed, but I think their water torture is even more powerful." This kind of conversation was very strange and would make other people think that these two people were crazy when they talked?
"Indeed."
And just as Li Ke expected, after Zhao Xin said this sentence, the two of them fell into silence again. They looked at each other's faces, and Li Ke felt even more awkward. Thus, after staring at Zhao Xin for a while longer, he couldn't help but tug at his collar, wanting to find a place to get some fresh air.
"I'm going over there to look at the scenery for a while … Well, sometimes what you see is not the truth."
However, just as he was about to leave, he couldn't help but mention the previous incident. Zhao Xin, on the other hand, was still as calm as ever. He didn't show any expression, nor did he say anything strange. It was as if he had believed Li Ke's words.
"Ugh … I'm glad you believe me."
Li Ke could only wave his hand at such a person. Under his constant gaze, he ran to the balcony at the end of the corridor, or rather, a watchtower. He began to look at the surrounding scenery, the residents below the fortress, and the busy but orderly civilians in the city below.
The buildings in Demacia were indeed in line with Li Ke's definition of a fairytale world. Most of the buildings here were white, with blue, gold, and gray embellishments. And most of the roads in the city were paved with white slabs. Around the roads, it was easy to see some sculptures with different expressions. And most importantly, the streets here were very clean. Unlike Freldrod, where one could accidentally step on something, the streets here were obviously cleaned by professionals.
The children here were unusually lively. It didn't take long for Li Ke's attention to some children playing by the river. And when he saw them playing hide-and-seek happily in the woods, sharing snacks from time to time, or buying something from the vendors, he couldn't help but think of the children in Freldrod.
Compared to these children who could play to their heart's content, the children in Freldrod were born to be heavier. They often had to help their parents with work, and even if the adults tried their best to leave food for them, they often couldn't eat enough food, let alone snacks. Most of the wishes of the children in Freldrod were 'to be able to eat forever'. '...
"Before next year, I have to return to Freldrod."
Recalling the five-year plan that he set for Aichy, Li Ke's heart was filled with a sense of urgency. But at this moment, he saw something happening to the children who were playing.
A child accidentally fell while skating on the river. This was originally a trivial matter, but it caused another terrible disaster. The place where the child fell happened to be the weak point of the ice, so when he stood up, many cracks appeared under his feet. He screamed in horror and wanted to run away immediately. But his action led to an even more disastrous situation. The ice under his feet cracked faster and faster, and when he ran away, it cracked completely!
The boy fell directly into the ice-cold river. Although he didn't sink directly, after his cotton-padded clothes were soaked with water, he couldn't climb up the ice anymore. Moreover, the ice around him was constantly cracking, almost causing the children who wanted to save him to fall into the ice-cold water. As a result, he lost his grip and could only struggle futilely in the ice-cold river water.
"Sh * t!"
Li Ke subconsciously wanted to jump down from the balcony to save the child. But his rationality stopped him. After all, this fortress and city were built on a mountain and surrounded by steep cliffs. Not to mention whether he would fall to his death after jumping down, even if he didn't fall to his death, there was no way he could be saved. After all, the distance between the two of them wasn't ordinary.
But when he turned around to inform Zhao Xin, he saw Kaos being rubbed against the ground by a much larger Drakonid next door. Kaos didn't dare to fight back. The Drakonid that Karina raised from a young age and addressed her as her mother and poop-picker.
"Kaos!"
He immediately called out. But, it was clear that Kaos didn't hear him. And most importantly, there was a sudden commotion among the children. The children who were standing by the river, trying to think of a way to save people, suddenly retreated in fear, leaving only a thin little girl standing by the river. Her hands were shining with white light. When Li Ke turned his head again, he saw that the child who fell into the river seemed to have been lifted up by something. He was lifted out of the river full of broken ice and landed steadily on the riverbank.
"He's fine now?"
Li Ke heaved a sigh of relief. But, what happened next made him pucker his brows. Not only did the child not thank the little girl, but he also screamed the moment he landed. Just as the girl was about to approach him, he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at her.
。 Of course, the stone didn't hit the little girl's head. Instead, it was controlled in midair by the little girl's magic. But, this scene made the boy even more terrified. He sat on the ground and crawled on all fours for a while. Then, he opened his mouth wide and yelled something as he ran away.
The little girl seemed to have suffered a huge blow. She subconsciously turned around to look at her friends. But, the instant she looked over, the children who were playing with her seemed to have seen something terrifying. They screamed and ran away one after another.
"Could it be …"
Li Ke instantly recalled the stone rule that he was warned about. Because of that, he had a bad premonition. And as if to prove that he wasn't wrong, the peaceful and prosperous city suddenly sounded an alarm.
