Fine.
The Destroyer of the World was indeed the Destroyer of the World. Li Ke slowly buried the huge body into the ground, and along with his movements, the trees and flowers destroyed in the battle just now, as well as the land that was empty because of Fedetic, slowly regained the green color that represented life. But the price was also very obvious. The land that was originally mostly black now slowly turned yellow, and some cracks began to appear.
This was undoubtedly using the ability of the ecosystem in this area to restore the prosperity of this area. In the long run, it was indeed not worth it. But Li Ke knew that if the people of Demacia found out that this scarecrow could cause trees to wither and crops to fail, then it would be very troublesome. Their fear would begin to spread. After all, it was basically certain that Fedetic existed and would return again. Now that anything that could cause panic among the people at the grass-roots level had to be eliminated.
After all, no matter how many extraordinary powers there were in this world, the most common people in this world were still ordinary people, in other words, farmers.
"But you're not bad. After facing the most terrifying thing in the world, you're still able to do your own thing without batting an eyelid. If you were in my era, perhaps you could become an ascender apprentice candidate."
But Yatokus was now very excited, as if he had seen hope after touching the power of the past. He began to talk non-stop to Li Ke, and did not stop until Li Ke had restored all the trees here. And what he said was also very interesting, because Li Ke had never seen the process and appearance of Yatokus becoming an ascender. It seemed that even at this point, the ascension ceremony was still a very important memory to him, and he had protected it very well.
So he could not help but ask.
"And then?"
Yatokus' voice became sobbing.
"And then, then you might die, or you might succeed in becoming an ascender. No one knows, because the possibility of failure in the ascension ceremony is too high. Sometimes, out of tens of thousands of challengers, it is impossible for one to succeed. It is possible that for decades, or even centuries, no ascender has succeeded. "
Yatokus' voice carried a little melancholy, and Li Ke remembered something important. That was the royal family of Shurima. After all, from the background story of Yellow Chicken, he was 100% sure that he would succeed. If the consequences of failure were really so terrible, then no matter how low the probability was, he should not have carried out such a ceremony at the peak of his power.
"What about the royal family of Shurima? I heard that every emperor of theirs will be an ascender. "
In response to Li Ke's question, Yatokus was silent for a moment, which was rare.
"They are special. In fact, why do you think we are so willing to listen to their orders? until there is no one with enough talent to let the Empire fall apart? You must understand that every ascender can be said, even if they are lacking in some areas …. "
Yatokus's laughter could be heard.
"In my memory, you should have seen a lot of scenes of me reading books in the library."
Yatokus was right, because Li Ke did see the tall Yatokus reading books in the huge library of Shurima. The materials of these books slowly expanded from stone, wood, and clay tablets to silk, linen, straw paper, parchment, and even white and smooth paper. The knowledge in the books also changed from how to fish to all kinds of obscure things.
And because Yatokus' memory was too messy, Li Ke never saw a complete fragment, but he knew that Yatokus was very happy when he was reading. As for the knowledge in the books, he couldn't see it clearly, but he could roughly guess what it was.
The meaning of Yatokus' words was very clear. For those who had a near-infinite lifespan, they could continue to learn to make up for their shortcomings. Moreover, the royal family that could make people like them, who were known as the pride of their generation, serve them loyally was obviously stronger than their fists combined. Otherwise, how could the Empire have lasted for so long?
"But in the end, it was still destroyed."
Li Ke let out a long sigh. His biggest memory of Yatokus was, "Shurima, your Emperor has passed away." After all, when Yatokus was strong, he was playing as a support. When he was running amok, he was playing as the Goddess of Dawn, commonly known as the Sun Mother and the Sun Maiden. Therefore, he had no feelings for Yatokus. The one he had feelings for was the Wheel Mother, the only person who could save the Sun Maiden from her tragic movement speed.
She was also Yatokus' granddaughter, the direct heir of the Empire.
"The world can be destroyed, let alone an Empire … But if you have heard news about a guy called Zerath …."
Although there wasn't much nostalgia in Yatoku's voice, he couldn't suppress his killing intent when he mentioned Zerath's name.
"Tell me, and then we'll kill him!"
He didn't say anything else after that. Li Ke came to the side of the white poplar that was crushed by Suit's body because he wasn't there to protect it. He quietly looked at the broken tree that was still emitting a white light. Then, he placed his hand on the tree trunk. But before he could say anything, he heard the white poplar's high-pitched but obviously painful cry.
"Don't grieve for me, and don't let nature be damaged again to heal me! I fought, I worked hard, I fought to protect Demacia and the forest of Demacia, and I sacrificed myself for it. My heart is full of glory. The name of the Knight of Demacia, Poplar, Oak Heart, will always be passed down in the land of Demacia! "
Yatokus' will was very high. He even showed some of the damaged forest to Li Ke and transferred his vitality to Li Ke. He did not hurt the land anymore. But Li Ke couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth because he really didn't expect a tree to have such vitality and call itself the Knight of Demacia.
"Actually, if I lifted your tree trunk up and linked you to it, you would've been able to live, but since you refused …"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard someone holding back her tears and crying.
"No … Nothing! Don't worry about me! I don't regret it! "
Yatokus was still as stubborn as ever.
