Chapter 106: Retreat at the Peak
Light shines, shadows flow.
It sounds very easy to understand.
Illumination means illuminating the earth, and Shadow Stream means assisting in the shadows. If the Order of the Balance is added to mediate, it can handle things that Illumination and Shadow Stream cannot handle.
Then perfection will be achieved.
There is one thing, which is quite raw.
And it’s actually feasible.
Not low!
"I think it would be more appropriate for you to find someone else for this matter. I am really not suitable."
Li Ke waved his hands repeatedly. He really wanted to avoid this kind of thing if possible.
In an extraordinary world, pursuing the improvement of status and position rather than personal cultivation and happiness.
He was not cruel enough , nor was he ruthless enough. He was not willing to pretend to be crazy and stupid and pretend not to see it. He did not like his son calculating his position all day long. This kind of thing was really not suitable for him.
At most, he could become the leader of a rebel army, accept the amnesty and then retire from the army, leaving the right things to the right people.
This was the idea he had in mind when he threw the booklet on Ionia's Five-Year Plan to Shen and Jie.
These two people are more suitable to be the ruler of Ionia than he is, so he has no intention of doing so.
So he patted Shen's shoulder and spoke with a serious face.
"Forget it, you should just run the Illuminati. Shadow Stream and the like don't sound suitable for you. There is nothing unsuitable for a king. Even if a person does not seek the position, he still takes it as his responsibility to benefit the country. As long as he is popular, then no matter whether he is suitable or not, he can only take the responsibility and completely abandon his own selfishness to lead the country. How can he choose to escape because of future disasters and blessings?"
Li Ke paused for a moment, then continued speaking.
"Shen, I believe in your character and ability, and I also believe that your cooperation with Jie can make the world a better place. I believe you have also discovered that I am not suitable to be a leader. I can't give up my selfishness. If you let me become a leader, the final outcome will be that I will be arrested for corruption or killed for exercising the right of virginity. So, if you treat me as a friend, don't harm me!"
Li Ke is very serious. If he really gets that position, he will really enforce the right of first night! Even if he doesn't enforce this, he will also collect beauties on a large scale!
Only for this reason, he has absolute confidence in himself!
He couldn't even resist the beauty of Ahri, so how could he resist the poison of power?
Shen was a little too excited because of what he said. No one had ever said such things to him, and no one had ever thought that he could take on such a task.
After all, Jie always does better than him.
"But……"
Li Ke interrupted him directly.
"You've read the book, and you know what I think. With your abilities, do you still need anything from me?"
Li Ke patted him on the shoulder to show his trust.
His biggest wish in life is to have a lot of money, little work, stay close to home, have power and influence but not have to take any responsibility. It is a very real and simple desire.
But he just doesn't intend to be a corrupt official or a lazy person, so it is better to leave the task of saving the world to Shen and Jie, two aspiring young people.
He would not deal with the monsters of Ionia.
"No buts! You are the electricity! You are the light! You are the only myth! I am the one who doesn't have the courage to take that step! But you do! Shen, you are the savior of Ionia! You are the chosen one!"
“…”
Mr. Shen felt that Li Ke just felt it was troublesome and wanted to be lazy, because no matter how you looked at it, Li Ke would gain the most benefit from participating in it.
And most importantly, Shen felt that his action guidelines and concepts were all obtained from Li Ke. If Li Ke did not help, problems would inevitably arise during implementation.
But looking at Li Ke's determined look, he could only sigh.
Jie didn't say anything. He had always been wary of Li Ke because of his inexplicable affection for Li Ke, so he didn't intend to express any opinions. He just watched the interaction between Li Ke and Shen silently.
However, at this time, when Shen was about to persuade Li Ke again, Jie spoke.
"In that case, let's act quickly before Master releases the news... Judge , there are many people in the Order of the Balance who want to fight Noxus. I hope you can take them away, but at the same time, you can't use the magic of the Order of the Balance. There are about 200 of these people, so please pay attention."
Shen was stunned when he heard this, and then he reacted immediately.
"Oh? That's right... it was my father who suppressed it before..."
The invasion of Noxus has not been a one-day or two-day thing. Many disciples of the Order of the Balance want to fight against the Noxians or some ignorant rules.
Therefore, he is not fighting alone. Among the young people of the Order of Balance, there have always been voices that interfere with the real world, but they have been suppressed by rules and reality.
Li Ke curled his lips. This was also the reason why he didn't want to get involved. Because of Shen's reputation, once a rebellion broke out, people would all go to Shen for help. He was a nobody, with no money and no power. If he went, he would be sidelined.
Needless to say, what happened to the leader who was sidelined?
Reputation is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time, but improving Ionia's social problems according to the above methods can be achieved in a short period of time.
This is Ionia, a world with so many social problems that it should have been turned upside down long ago, but it is all suppressed by the "balance". As long as a person with fame and status dares to stand up, then the world can be easily changed.
No matter how you look at it, Shen is a very suitable person.
"So, are you ready?"
Jie didn't see that Li Ke had any intention of objecting, and he felt relieved, because he really couldn't understand Li Ke, this man was too mysterious.
And he secretly swore that since Shen was going to establish the Illuminati, he would secretly establish the Shadow Stream to continue this cycle. So after he finished speaking, he took a fighting stance.
Shen smiled slightly, nodded, and also assumed a fighting stance.
"Well, why so fast? But... of course!"
The two smiled at each other, and the next moment, the two figures collided quickly and continued to move towards the surrounding town.
Li Ke was a little confused by them, but he understood after thinking about it.
Neither Shen nor Jie can recruit people from the Order of the Balance with legitimate reasons, so naturally they have to put on a show by having a fight. This is the tacit understanding that the two of them have developed since they were young, and it is something that he simply does not have.
The reason why Jie suddenly brought up this matter was obviously to be on guard against him and not want him to get too involved. He even mentioned the number of people from the Sect of Balance deliberately.
I can only say that Jie is indeed a good brother who protects his brothers with his life.
But to others, he is really a "monster" who is too rational, making people wonder whether he still has feelings.
Although I regret that I can't be close friends with Jie in real life, I have to say...
"Just what I want."
Then, a sensational event occurred in Ionia.
Shen, the son of the previous Twilight Eye, wanted to let the members of the Order of the Kinkou fight against Noxus, so he rebelled against the Order of the Kinkou, changed his name to Shen, and called on all Ionia people with lofty ideals to set off a wind of change in Ionia.
Ku Shuo resigned, and his disciple Jie accepted the position and set about arresting and interrogating him, but unfortunately.
Jie was defeated by Shen in order to protect a thousand-year-old sacred object, and the brotherhood between the two men was completely broken.
As for Li Ke?
He is eating melon.
"You guys continue to act, I'm watching."
