Some of Zu An's children and commoners also saw the famous and kind madam struggling desperately on the street lamp. As expected, they, who had just been unsealed by Li Ke, cried out in alarm. Some of the children even wanted to rush to the street lamp to save the madam who was still struggling and dripping with liquid. But as expected, these children were pulled back by the adults around them. Even if these children weren't their children, no adults would watch children get killed in front of them.
This had nothing to do with sentiment or morality, but was an instinct engraved in their genes. It was an important guarantee for the continuation of mankind to this day. But it was a pity that some humans abandoned their instincts and the simple universal values. They yelled at the children and adults, trying to get them to release them so that they could escape from Li Ke. As for these people, Li Ke completely ignored them.
But he didn't make things difficult for the children and adults who totaled up to a thousand people. He surrounded them with plants and allowed them to easily see the densely packed big shots around them.
He casually produced some fruits that grew in this world and tasted like bananas, but tasted like grapes. He raised his hand and gestured for the frightened children and civilians to eat them. He slowly peeled off the skin of a 'banana' and gnawed on it. Then, he looked around and asked the big shots that he had captured.
"Let me ask you this. Do you make the workers work from morning to night and don't care about their lives and don't pay them enough?"
But this time, he was still met with curses and sneers, as well as personal attacks. He turned to the secretary who remained silent after Madam Phelps was hung up. He chuckled and was about to snap his fingers again. Sure enough, Mr. Secretary, who had witnessed two big shots die in front of him, rubbed his face and looked at Li Ke with a dejected expression.
"Sir, you're asking me to sell the rope used to hang me."
Even though he didn't understand why Li Ke was doing this and wanted to gain something from it, he knew that this method of doing things was similar to the crude and impolite Noxus people. If he continued, he would want the people who originally ruled this city to die. He would pour a lot of dirty water on their corpses and crush them to death with the so-called evidence of their crimes, so that they would never see the hope of the sun rising again.
However, he couldn't see the slightest possibility of stopping Li Ke's actions.
"He wants to completely wipe out Pi City, completely wipe out evolution, completely wipe out this world's greatest, brightest, and most open and civilized civilization!"
He let out a deep sigh. His intelligent mind and abundant knowledge allowed him to think of many things.
In this way, the kind-hearted people would suffer unwarranted accusations, and the dutiful people would be slandered as executioners and accomplices. The elegant and considerate ones would be called vases and hypocrites. As for those romantic and intoxicating things, they would be regarded as sins that would lead people to depravity.
Their history would be completely trampled and changed! Their glorious civilization would wither away at a rapid speed.
Therefore, if he continued to be stubborn, he would not be able to obtain anything but the destruction of a civilization!
He laughed bitterly and carefully observed Li Ke's face. Li Ke's face was similar to the Ionians but exuded an austere aura. There was also that chilling killing intent and that disdainful smile when he looked at them. This action of allowing the lower class to trample on the higher class reminded him of a country he was most familiar with.
Noxus.
The country that trampled on the nobles of other countries. The country that was filled with knowledge and ideals, as well as grand ambitions and sentiments. Only the people of that country would care about the dignity of the slaves and lowly commoners, and whether or not they received the so-called fairness.
What a joke. They trampled on this concept and used this creed that they didn't even believe in to destroy the civilization of others.
As expected, civilization couldn't communicate with barbarism.
The secretary's heart was filled with sorrow. After confirming Li Ke's identity, he no longer feared anything. Therefore, after Li Ke asked the question, his expression was still as calm as ever.
"Then, are you selling?"
The secretary smiled.
"Yes."
It was just a rope to hang him. As long as he wasn't killed now, he would have the chance to bring his wealth and family to Demacia or a small country in Valoran to continue his beautiful life. After all, as long as he was useful and could provide a large amount of information regarding the so-called criminal evidence, he would be able to survive. In that case, why would he give up his life?
Moreover, if he acted appropriately, he might be able to continue working under this lord. With a powerful and magical leader, their interests would be guaranteed and their business would be able to grow even bigger!
Therefore, it was just a mere rope. Even if it was wrapped around his neck, it would still require some time to hang him to death. And this time would be the chance for him to survive or obtain a higher position! As for those who died, the original rulers? They were merely a staircase to the future. He would remember their contributions, just like how Leather City would forever remember the screws that made it and the people that built it. He would also remember them.
"Very good. I admire such a smart person like you."
Li Ke chuckled. This was the effect he wanted. Since he didn't have any subordinates, he would let these people bite him. As long as he had sufficient strength, these smart people who only had benefits in their eyes wouldn't jump out of his trap and crazily bite each other on his stage. In order to ensure their own benefits, they would not hesitate to sell out everything they could and give up everything they could.
This was capital. This was the greatest and most fatal weakness of this world's greatest monster!
Capital didn't exist in compromise and unity! Moreover, it would only turn people into demons and monsters, turning them into inhumane monsters.
"Then, are there any other smart people like me? If there are, say it and I won't kill your entire family. "
Therefore, he only needed to raise his arm and call for the audience to take their seats.
Then, a tide of responses came.
