Chapter 236 Overturning the Table
"Humans are always like this, constantly persecuting their own kind in order to have a better life."
Li Ke looked at Vander, who had an unhappy expression, and heard an elegant voice in his ears, the tone of which was full of disappointment with the human species.
As for the other party's words, Li Ke couldn't be sure whether he heard the voice of an affectionate middle-aged man or the sound of a rapid war drum. He could only know the meaning of the voice.
"However, there is still something in human beings that is worthy of God's favor, and that is courage. Human hymns all praise courage, the courage to sacrifice, the courage to fight, and the courage to resist. It seems that all virtues can be related to courage... Loving humans is really too tiring. God's favored one, I hope you can maintain this courage no matter what kind of adventure and darkness you face."
"Look, they are harboring the courage to resist you. Even though they don't know they are no match for you, they will have countless courage to fight against you because of love, interests, or more... Isn't this beautiful? It is truly admirable to have the courage to resist the one chosen by God."
This is roughly what Li Ke understood. After the other party said this, he seemed to be waiting for Li Ke's response, but Li Ke was not interested in paying attention to him.
To put it bluntly, this is just God's leisure, just like people can ask the ancients thousands of years ago why they didn't die or why they surrendered. It is completely correct to say that it is easy to talk without any pain in the waist.
Courage is indeed a virtue of human beings, but it would be too biased to say that courage is all that humans have.
It is better to keep a distance from God.
But Vander didn't know that Li Ke was talking to God. He only saw the scene of his men's death.
He was an alchemist baron in Zaun, a man who controlled the peace of an area. Even if Li Ke said that he was a human trafficker, something that was absolutely not allowed, but Li Ke walking towards him carrying the other person's body was a provocation to his authority.
If he did not respond, his position as the boss would be unstable. If his position as the boss was unstable, Zaun would never be stable.
"But you shouldn't have killed him!"
Vander looked at Li Ke angrily, his eyes turned to his iron boxing gloves, and his face became very gloomy.
"I know, but I don't care anymore."
Li Ke spread his hands, picked up the wine glass beside him and poured himself a glass.
In fact, he had figured it out when he took action.
There was no need for him to worry so much about the gods. Even if he was killed by the gods in Ionia, it would only be seven or eight years before he could integrate politics and religion and establish a new magical ascended empire.
There is also a buffer period of seven or eight years for development in Piltover.
If you want to do something, just do it. No one in Piltover can stop you.
As long as you don't put all your energy into building a country and make the place where you live a better, there will be no problem at all.
And seven or eight years later...
God may not be his opponent. At least he has the capital to negotiate.
"I should catch him, bring him to you, and tell you what he did, and how much suffering the people here have endured, and then help you do this and that, and then gain your approval, and everyone will be happy in the end."
Li Ke shook the wine in the glass, then grinned when all of Vander's men stood up.
"But isn't this cheap?"
After drinking all the wine in the glass, Li Ke pointed at Vander.
"Your ambitions are long gone. Let alone being a wolf, you are now just a dog that wants to protect your family. There's nothing wrong dogs are humans' best companions. But dogs can't be alpha wolves. If they do, they're just idiots, the kind that will kill their entire family and friends."
"You are questioning us Vandel? Who gave you the courage?!"
A woman who could only be described as very courageous stood up. She looked at Li Ke and seemed ready to make a move.
It's true that she was disappointed with Vander's current appearance, and she also felt that Vander had changed from a wolf to a family dog, but the boss is the boss, and she must maintain the boss's authority before he completely disappoints everyone.
"Because all of you combined are not as good as me. Even Piltover and Zaun combined are not as good as me."
Li Ke whistled.
Although Piltover and Zaun had nothing to do with him, it was absolutely impossible for someone who grew up in that country to remain indifferent and feel upset after seeing such a scene.
I didn’t have the ability in my previous life, but in this life.
He does.
"Who do you think you are?"
An angry fat man raised a chair and smashed it towards Li Ke's head. Li Ke didn't even look at him and kicked him out.
Holding the bottle of wine, he looked at the people who were rushing towards him angrily and shouted to the ceiling.
"Tell Lana I'm not coming home for dinner today!"
After shouting at Mei Mu who was hiding above, Li Ke punched Vander in the face who was rushing towards him, knocking him away, then lowered his head and swept his kick, knocking down the two strong men.
Then he turned sideways, dodged the pounce of another sturdy man, grabbed his ankle, and knocked the woman who pulled out a knife and wanted to stab him away.
Fuck Vandel, fuck Hilco, fuck the gods.
He, Li Ke, just wants to beat all these annoying things away!
Subdue the power of others!
With his right fist flashing with magical light, Li Ke smashed a man's mechanical arm with one punch, then held down his head and had a close contact with Vander who pounced on him.
Strong hands crack the skull!
"Li Ke! Stop! You're provoking Zuan by doing this!"
Sheriff Grayson looked at Vander . She wanted to stop Li Ke, but she didn't know how.
"Don't be silly. Go inform Camille of the Ferros family that I want to challenge Piltover in a duel. Tell her to prepare the prize for when I win!"
Li Ke kicked a man away. What about promoting beliefs and ideas? Those are things for the future. Although Zaun and Piltover are cities of progress, the more progressive they are, the more they should understand the horror of barbarism!
"you……"
Grayson didn't know why Li Ke knew about the Philos family, but since it involved the Gray Lady, she could only sigh helplessly and rushed out the door.
"Take care of yourself."
She didn't know what Li Ke wanted to do, but when she looked at Vander lying on the ground, she knew that the world in Zaun was about to change.
