This was a very important question. Li Ke knew that even though he could steal power, it was only a part of the person's life force being taken away. It might be a terrifying injury to mortals, but to an existence like Furybear, it was just a matter of a few hundred times in a single breath. The power that Joshua took away was not the upper limit of Furybear's power, but more like an imitation and record. It had no effect on the upper limit of Furybear's power.
"Do you intend to forgive a mortal who took the power of a god? How could you ask such a question? It seems that mortals are mortals. Even if they gain power, they are still mortals! Humans do not deserve and should not have the power of nature! "
Furybear was extremely disdainful. Gods and mortals were absolute, and he would not forgive those who took the power of gods. Because if everyone did this, then where would the dignity of the gods be? There would be countless people who wanted to do so. It was fine if he was strong, but what about the weak ones who were weaker than humans? Their lives and creeds would be disrupted by those greedy human scum, and they would not be able to live normally.
Furybear was actually very disgusted with humans. Even though he admired those with strong wills, he did not like humans in general because they were too weak. They had to rely on civilization to survive in this world, and support each other to survive. But this way, this group of people would greatly destroy the original appearance of this world. The gods' thoughts and actions would be disrupted by the gathered humans, and some gods would even have to leave the place they had lived for tens of thousands of years to make way for the humans who gathered together to resist and destroy nature with civilization.
And these humans did not know how to be grateful, and used 'beasts' and 'devils' to slander his own kind. Did they not understand that only wildness could make a life truly strong and not weak? They used dams to bind the rivers of the land, preventing the flow of water from flowing smoothly. This made the rivers cry, and the land grieve. Then, they brought even greater disaster upon themselves. Furybear had seen more than once how humans used dams to bind the rivers, and how it caused even greater impact and more deaths hundreds of years later.
He had seen with his own eyes how much the human body's constitution, strength, and courage had declined after the invention of clothes and houses. Although there were still humans that he admired, they could not be compared to the delightful overlords of the wilderness in his memory. Most of them became foolish farmers who only knew how to take from the earth, and a small number of them became merchants who deceived and hid things from their own people. Even the position of leader would be given to the weak and muddle-headed people, allowing them to live thousands or tens of thousands of times better than people like them without doing anything. As for those who truly worked hard, they could only starve to death miserably.
Was this normal?
This was not normal.
Farmers were foolish, but they relied on their intelligence and hard work to obtain food from the land. While wheat and other plants were bound, Furybear could still tolerate it.
Merchants deceiving their own kind, Furybear did not care because it was their own race's business. But for some strange reasons, they allowed farmers to bind more nature and the land, wasting the gift of nature for some useless iron and ores. He could not tolerate it.
The muddleheadedness of the kings and nobles was also a matter of the humans themselves. Yet, they started wars, digging up mountains, cutting off rivers, and burning forests in order to reduce their own troubles. This restricted the lives of those who were equal and tenacious in this world, preventing them from showing their true selves.
Furybear could not accept it, and what he could not accept was the civilization that humans praised and the direction of their future development. Therefore, this god who came from nature, walked and lived in the wilderness, and represented nature itself, naturally loathed humans. Because in Furybear's eyes, humans cutting off the river was like cutting the throats of their own kind. Humans burning the forest was like burning one of their brothers alive. Humans digging through the mountains and filling up the ravines were like destroying their brothers' corpses without leaving any trace.
He didn't want to completely destroy humans, so he wanted to destroy their 'civilization'.
But it was a pity that no matter if it was his believers or his sentient brothers and sisters, none of them were mindful of this matter. There were also plenty of powerful beings among humans. The oldest and most powerful among them, Aoun, had no interest in protecting nature at all. All he knew was to forge iron all day long. Therefore, the reason why he tested Aoun time and time again was because he was angry at Aoun's incompetence.
But if Aoun really did what he wanted, Furybear knew that he wouldn't be on good terms with him because there could only be one overlord in this world and that overlord was Aoun, the one who controlled the wrath of the sky. Therefore, after discovering that Li Ke had stolen his power and could control lightning, Furybear swore to kill Li Ke. He set out with great fanfare to let everyone know the price that mortals had to pay for being tainted by the power of gods.
Then, he was stopped by Aoun and Avinia. All he could do was watch as Li Ke walked out of Freldrod and became an enemy that he couldn't resist in a short period of time. Therefore, when Li Ke asked that question, Furybear couldn't help but mock him because if it weren't for Aoun, Li Ke would have been dead. Yet, Furybear was still disrespectful to the gods and only wanted gods who were wholeheartedly for the good of humans and were even willing to sacrifice themselves for them.
Was that a god? That was only the manifestation of human desires.
"And you developed the so-called civilization of humans, stole my power, and trampled on the gods willfully … Ha! Only a coward like Aoun would think that a human like you is valuable. In my opinion, you're worthless! You're filled with mortal desires! You're the scourge of this world! One day, I will make all human civilization disappear from this world and return this world to its original state! "
Furybear vented his final anger. He didn't want to talk to Li Ke anymore. Compared to his partner Aichy, this human called Li Ke was worthless. Furybear's words successfully made Li Ke's awkwardness disappear. If Furybear was hostile to him because he stole Furybear's power, he wouldn't say anything. But if Furybear was hostile to the civilization of humans and he offended Furybear …
"Then, I, a mortal human, should let you, an arrogant bastard, experience the similarities between you and mortals!"
Li Ke didn't raise his fists anymore. Instead, his hands were brimming with his own magic.
He wanted to slay a god.
