Chapter 149 Five Years of Development
After Minette's explanation, Li Ke probably understood what had happened.
The story goes back to a few years ago.
At that time, a plague suddenly broke out in the Dark Elf Empire. When Queen Meya, who had just ascended the throne, was trying to find a way to deal with the matter, the empire took advantage of the opportunity and swooped in.
No one knew what had happened or if there had been a traitor, but the Dark Elf Empire was directly destroyed.
Even the dark elf queen Meya in the royal capital was not spared. She was captured and taken back to the Delos Empire. She is now imprisoned there and has become a tool for the empire to demonstrate its power.
It is said that although Queen Meya did not suffer any insults or other cruel treatment, she attempted suicide several times.
The surviving dark elves either migrated deeper underground or went to other places in Arad, while others struggled to survive in their ruined hometowns. However, because the empire's system was directly shattered by the Delos Empire, the dark elves did not have an easy time.
Lack of food and clothing is the norm, and precious medicines and daily necessities are directly cut off.
If it weren't for the fact that Belmar still maintained trade, and the Empire was still planning to let the prince marry Maya when he grew up and then directly annex the Dark Elf Empire, the Dark Elves would basically have been declared extinct.
However, Li Ke discovered a very sharp problem.
"You said that the old king is in power in the current Belmar Kingdom?"
Li Ke looked at Minette on the side and couldn't help but ask.
"That's right, but the current king doesn't have much ability. He became king because his son was engaged to Skadi, the daughter of the president of the Belmar Kingdom Chamber of Commerce. But their family is in very poor health. It is basically certain that his son will be in power in less than ten years. I heard that his son seems to be in good health and may be able to hold on for a long time."
Minette gave her evaluation, but Li Ke couldn't help but complain in his heart.
How long can she last? When the players came online, Queen Skadi, who had been married for less than two years, had already been in power for almost two years . Counting the series of shitty things that happened when Skadi inherited the throne, it is likely that this prince will die if he dares to get married.
However, Li Ke was really surprised that Skadi was able to sit firmly on the throne.
"So you came to me just to ask me to help you help the dark elves here?"
"That's right. I have a lot of work to do and I need the help of a master like you. And you happen to know the Dragon and Tiger Secret Technique, so you don't think you are a bad person, so I want to give it a try. In return, I can try my best to find someone to help you solve your problem."
Minette is indeed well versed in the art of making empty promises. She had previously said that she could help Li Ke solve his problems, and now she is just trying her best.
However, Li Ke did not intend to argue with the other party about this, but sneered.
"I'm afraid you can't solve it."
Minette blinked her blue eyes.
"Why do you say that? The dark elves' magic skills are the best in the world!"
"I was born with it."
"Oh, there's a chance. Please tell me how old ."
Li Ke slowly stretched out a finger.
"One hundred years old?!"
Minette couldn't help but exclaimed, although a hundred years old was just a five or six-year-old kid to them, it was an extremely old age for humans.
"One day. In fact, I was born today."
“…”
Li Ke dug through his clothes and pulled out a bunch of strange things. He looked at the small pink umbilical cord wrapped in muscle on his belly button and couldn't help but slap his forehead.
"Look, this is my amniotic fluid membrane. Damn it! I haven't even cut my umbilical cord yet."
Minette: “…”
Can humans give birth to such strange creatures?
Of course Minette didn't believe what Li Ke said, but Li Ke chose not to say anything, and she didn't intend to get to the bottom of it.
Although Li Ke does not need the magic of the dark elves, more friends mean more paths, so Li Ke is also willing to help them deal with some minor troubles.
However, he is not working for free, he also has needs.
"I want the Berserker training methods, as well as some of the methods assassins use to increase their speed ."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
So the two of them reached a deal, and Li Ke officially settled down in this forest. He established friendly relations with the monsters here and began his life of fighting monsters, leveling up and training. During this period, he also went to where GSD was and got some guidance from the other party.
Not only that, after several missions, he learned the Berserker training method from Minette, but Minette at that time thought that he didn't have the Ghost Hand and might not even be able to get started.
But Li Ke sneered.
Because from a plot perspective, the Berserker's secret technique is not something difficult to learn. Although the power of Kazan is the key to getting started, the power of blood is the core that allows the Berserkers to go further and further.
Li Ke has the ability to control life energy, so he is naturally on the true path of a berserker. He can directly study blood and energy, instead of waiting until his own blood and energy become complicated to a certain extent before trying desperately to learn to control the blood and energy in his body.
Then, he was stuck at the entry level for two or three years.
When Li Ke finally got the hang of it and continued to study, he finally understood why most Berserkers had poor brains and short lives.
It's not because of excessive consumption of vitality, but because...
"Hypertension, cerebral infarction, cardiovascular rupture...splenic rupture..."
Li Ke, who was already five years old, looked at the body of an unknown berserker who was being dissected under his hands. According to other people's description, this berserker suddenly went crazy during the battle, killed several of his companions, and died of blood all over his body. Before that, he had always been very stable.
But when Li Ke bought his body back for an autopsy, he found that the berserker's cause of death was not due to a runaway burst of power as those people said.
His death was quite realistic. He failed to pay attention to his cardiovascular system when controlling his blood and energy. He first suffered a cerebral infarction and was then bewitched by his own ghost hand to use even greater power.
And then nothing happened. Kazan's curse made him ignore the condition of his own body. His violent thoughts and severe cerebral infarction made him unable to distinguish between friend and foe, and he was naturally killed.
"That's why I despise those who rely on the Ghost Hand to get started and then use it to constantly control their blood and energy. The power of Kazan helps you shield your pain and the body's defense mechanism, but if you continue to squander this power and don't pay attention to your own body's safety, you will certainly die happily."
That’s right!
Berserkers are mostly not killed by humans.
But it's myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction!
