Under Li Ke's command, the huge pale-blue buildings continued to compress and deform where Furybear originally stood. They gradually shrank, condensing the power that Li Ke used to maintain their existence, forming a super-dense energy aggregate. If Furybear did not use its ability to withdraw from the real world in time, it would be forced to return to the mythical world under the attack of this energy ball.
Because even Li Ke was not confident in controlling this move, so after sensing that his enemy had disappeared, Li Ke immediately changed his target and punched at the sky. The energy ball flew into the sky and exploded in the sky in front of the shocked Noxus people. Not only did it make a deafening noise, but it also opened a hole in the thick dark clouds in the sky, allowing the clear sky to appear above their heads.
"This is … your current power?"
Looking at the tall figure who seemed to be covered in black armor, Delius couldn't believe that this guy was the gladiator in his memory who would get injured in a fight with him. Such power undoubtedly belonged to a god, not a human with no background. He now completely believed that Li Ke could settle everything without hurting Noxus because Noxus had no way to resist such power. Even if they mobilized all the forces in the country, it would be in vain.
This was not a power that a human should have.
"But what I bring will always be stronger than such power."
Li Ke slowly dispelled the armor on his body and reorganized it into his own flesh and blood. But even though he only used it for less than ten seconds, he found that his power in the form of an ascender had increased tremendously. If it was just a slow growth, Li Ke wouldn't be too worried because it would be too boring if his body couldn't evolve on its own after surpassing that of a human. But it was different now because the growth of his power was too fast. In just a few seconds, he felt that his power had increased by one-third. And the speed of improvement in his life level could not be said to be the same as running, but rather, it was like jumping through space.
The most ridiculous thing was that the speed of improvement in all aspects was also increasing rapidly. Ever since he absorbed the power in Yatox's body again, as long as he dared to release his ascender form, this speed would increase exponentially.
So he really didn't want to use the power of an ascender now. This growth speed was really too strange. It wasn't too surprising that ordinary people could grow at this speed. After all, it was easy to increase their strength. But when one's strength reached his level, it was hard to say if there was something wrong with him. Before he figured out what was going on, Li Ke didn't want to indulge in this strange state too much.
At least, he had to find Morgana or Ryz and ask the thousand-year-old demons.
"Maybe, but under normal circumstances, power is more shocking."
Delius took Li Ke's cloak from the dumbfounded Miss Tanuki and threw the gorgeous cloak into Li Ke's hands. After putting on his cloak that represented the Emperor, Li Ke smiled and asked again.
"The power of ideas and will is also power. Delius, isn't this what you have always believed in?"
Delius was silent because not only did he see a large-scale modern army in the city Li Ke showed him, but he also saw people with simple firearms and war weapons fighting enemies with seemingly countless planes and cannons. Even when the whole world was against them, Li Ke single-handedly broke the myth of invincibility and made his country truly stand tall among countless powerful countries.
Moreover, the people there lived and worked in peace. Everyone could go to school to learn the knowledge they liked. Most of the external factors were blocked by the powerful country, allowing them to choose their own lives and achieve their own goals.
"… Indeed, I did see a strong will, as well as an indomitable determination. The path that I never dared to try is actually possible … "
Even though he was also a warrior who had been rolling in piles of corpses all year round and had seen countless warriors with incomparable determination, he had never seen so many warriors with steel-like willpower. And yet, such warriors and citizens were born in a country that he felt was more or less' weak 'in its way of doing things. And the country that had always emphasized this kind of tenacious willpower didn't have many warriors with such willpower.
It wasn't as simple as tens of thousands, but it was a number that could make the entire Runic Continent tremble. It was a number that he didn't dare to imagine.
"Then follow me? Without enough help, I'm afraid I'll have to destroy Noxus. "
Delius didn't hesitate. After seeing a greater cause and path, he was no longer bound by his previous views. Even though he couldn't completely agree with the ideals that Li Ke had shown him with the city, he could accept most of them and was willing to pledge his loyalty. However, he was only working hard for his country, Noxus, under this goal. If Li Ke didn't have the identity of Noxus's emperor, he would definitely risk his life to attack Li Ke because Noxus would definitely fall in front of such a grand goal.
Therefore, he took a flagpole that represented Noxus. This flag with the fluttering Noxus' axe pattern emblem was given to him by Darkwill back when he was conferred the title of Noxus's Hand. It was draped over him. It was proof of his loyalty to Noxus and Darkwill, but he no longer cared about it. This was because under Li Ke's leadership, the old Noxus was bound to die. And he would also witness the rise of Noxus in this great revolution. Hence, under Li Ke's astonished gaze … Delius snapped the flag that represented the old Noxus on the spot before kneeling on one knee.
"Of course it's to pledge my loyalty to you."
Delius's loyalty had never been to the emperor, nor was it to the Noxus led by the nobles. Instead, it was to Noxus as a country. If this leader of his was truly seeking the welfare of the country's citizens and had a feasible path, what was wrong with offering his loyalty?
He was the Hand of Noxus, the protector and defender of this country. He was forever an arm that was driven by the country's will.
He was forever loyal.
No one wouldn't trust their own arm.
