Ten minutes later.
"I know that everything has a life of its own. So, tell me where he is or if he is by my side. Or, tell me how to find him. No … after hearing you, I am no longer interested. "
Li Ke was very familiar with this kind of operation. Every charlatan he met was like this. They all wanted to be recognized by something, as if this was the only way to achieve something.
It was the same when he was in Freldrod, Demacia, Shurima, Pietown and Ionia. Why must he be acknowledged by something? Even the gods who had transcended the world, and the legendary dragon who had forged the stars, had told him the same thing.
He needed the acknowledgment of others. He had to prove himself in order to obtain something. It was as though only by doing so could he realize the value of his life and become what they liked. But why did he have to become someone else? Why wasn't he the one to acknowledge others?
He was far inferior to those people in terms of life experience, experience, determination, and talent. He had always been cautious and advanced according to the rules of this world because of these. No matter how deviant he was in their eyes, it was only because he respected the law of the jungle and the law of the jungle. Only the one with the biggest fist was the truth.
"I don't really need the acknowledgment of this Ionia Spirit. If he can only rely on my strength to revive, then what's the use of his strength? She can't even strive for self-improvement. She can't even engrave the indomitable spirit of the souls on this land into her bones. Instead, she blindly creates countless miraculous lives. She even has her own benevolence to squander them. What a pitiful land, what a pitiful mother. "
Li Ke gave a thumbs up in disdain before collapsing.
"Isn't this pampering the source of everything that Ionia is facing? A nation without heroes is pitiful. A nation that craves heroes is a coward. Verus, I know you want to let Ionia remain as the most fertile land in the world out of guilt. But let me tell you, it's useless. "
Li Ke did not need to guess to know what Verus was thinking. People who made mistakes would want to make up for their mistakes as much as possible. This was also the reason why he did not eliminate Verus immediately. This was a victory for humanitarianism. However, this did not mean that Li Ke would listen to his nonsense. His wish was useless, and his will was worthless.
Of course, it was not that those who had done wrong could not be redeemed, but if those who had sunk into the world of revenge wanted to turn back, Li Ke would only sneer and kick them back into the darkness.
Where was the retribution?
As long as he saw it, it would be with him.
"Fertile land will attract hungry wolves. People who don't know how to fight back are worthless. Fertile land will only increase sorrow. A nation that didn't even want to protect its own homeland and relied on heroes to protect it had no value at all. Your wish to preserve Ionia as it was in life is true, but I despise such a wish. If Ionia wanted to go further, she didn't need fertile land. Instead, she needed blood. I won't make the same mistake again. You should know what I'm talking about. "
The smile on Verus' face vanished. Even though he tried his best to smile, he couldn't. All he could do was put on an expression that was no better than crying.
Li Ke didn't want him to die without any redemption. He even mocked him mercilessly. This made him feel a great sense of loss. He had always thought that Li Ke would be able to understand them. Li Ke, who had the memories of two or even more brothers, should be able to understand their friendship and understand their despair and pain.
However, Li Ke didn't. There was no pity or sympathy in his eyes. He only told Verus coldly that if he wasn't still useful, he would be dead by now.
His heart was filled with sorrow, but he accepted it calmly. This was indeed the retribution he deserved. Or rather, he felt relieved after he thought it through. This was because his hope of redemption had completely disappeared. He no longer had to worry about whether he could do it or whether he would fall into depravity again.
The only thing he could do now was wait for judgment and Li Ke's butcher's knife.
"… You really are like Yatox."
He sat on a tree stump and shook his head with a sigh.
"He's always been like this. When we were lost, he continued to do his own things without hurting anyone. When he returned to Shurima to rebuild the Empire, he was the first to say that he didn't change back. He was still a Dark Spawn. He was still the one who wanted to take revenge on this world. He rejected redemption and admitted his sins. "
However, Li Ke directly denied it.
"No, I'm not a decisive person. You must die in my heart because I saw it. I saw your sins in your brothers' memories. That's why I must kill you. If I didn't know about your sins, I wouldn't have done anything to you. "
Lefran was like that. Li Ke knew that she must have killed someone, but he didn't see it with his own eyes. There were no tears from the victims, and there was no conclusive evidence, so she didn't die. As for Vladimir … Li Ke didn't know that he wasn't a real vampire, so he was unlucky enough to be casually tossed aside by Li Ke because of his inherent impression of him.
It could only be said that he was really unlucky. After all, Li Ke had been very careful to avoid this kind of thing from happening.
"Do you only care about what you see and hear?"
"That's right. I don't mean to worry about what I don't know. Just the number of hands that I can see asking me for help is more than enough to last me a lifetime. If those I don't know want to be saved, they must at least know how to speak. If Ionians don't know how to speak and walk, there's no need for Ionian traditions to exist. "
"What a domineering and merciless answer. Are all Gods like this?"
"No, this is my understanding of my own abilities. Besides, even Gods have hands that they can't hold. However, I chose to make everyone stop reaching out their hands and instead bend down to build a ladder for everyone to be saved. This is a path that will allow everyone to be saved. So don't call me God. God is just an ideal human. I'm still far from the God in my heart. "
The more Li Ke increased his strength, the more his mind could understand the knowledge he had learned before. Especially after witnessing the death of the stars and the faint light of the stars, he felt that he was getting closer to his current consciousness structure and moving in a certain direction.
The words that he couldn't understand before were now clearly visible. Because of this, his lack of confidence in his powerful strength slowly disappeared. After all, as long as he still had the tools to search for the truth, his understanding of his own abilities, and his goodwill to the entire world, so what if he was powerful and incredible?
It was only power.
"Are you really not going to help Ionia?"
Verus lowered his head. He was very sad. He was an Ionian.
"I've given them many chances. As long as one person asks me for help, I'll stay. But all I hear is condemnation and complaints. It's as if someone like me should go against the wishes of the people under my name for no reason so that they can live the good life they once had. After all the things I've done, they still don't understand what's causing them pain. "
Noxus' invasion caused irreparable damage to Ionia. But after Sven's' death 'and Vivian's killing of the Noxus Emperor, Ionia no longer faced the problem of war. Most of the Noxus people who stayed behind had lost the will to fight. The nobles wanted to fight, but the soldiers who were the main force didn't.
Would they disobey the Emperor's orders and continue to work for their superiors who could be replaced by military merits? Or would they obey the orders of the highest authority and stop fighting? This was a strict system of promotion that was forged with the blood of countless people, so this wasn't a difficult decision for the Noxus people. That was why as long as the Ionians could unite as one, the Noxas remnants without reinforcements would not be a problem at all.
But they chose to engage in civil war.
Indeed, this was the scourge left behind by Noxus. But they didn't think about why they chose to engage in civil war instead of standing up. They still blamed Noxus for the law of the jungle and yearned for peace without bloodshed. The elders and village elders still wanted to live a 'peaceful' and 'stable' life, and they prayed for peace to maintain the so-called balance.
Disgusting.
Actually, there was one thing that Li Ke didn't mention, which was that he recalled the fragments of the dragon-slaying technique on this continent. But in the end …
Hehe.
He had reached out to help, but there wasn't even a spark. Just like in the past, the people who were imprisoned by certain thoughts for thousands of years were still a pile of wet wood. Only when the blood inside was drained dry could they be lit up.
"But this is too cruel."
Verus let out a long sigh. At this moment, a Vastaya woman carefully walked over. She had beautiful feathers on her head and she was holding the hand of a mixed-blood Vastaya boy who didn't look like a Vastaya. Li Ke smelled something interesting on the boy.
It was the smell of the Noxus people. It was obvious that this mixed-blood boy was a mix of Noxus people and Ionian Vastaya.
This was inconceivable for the people here. As a native race, the Vastaya people were discriminated against in Ionia, and the Noxus people were even more so. A Vastaya woman was bringing along a Vastaya boy mixed with Noxus people to survive in Ionia?
Li Ke felt that their lives in Demacia would be much better. Even if Demacia didn't welcome the Vastaya people, at least they wouldn't bully orphans and widows.
"Sorry, I heard that they would give some free fish here … so I thought …"
The woman was a little weak.
