Chapter 306 Reason
Malphite was just doing what it does every day.
After the destruction of the Monolith Fortress that gave birth to him, a fortress specifically designed to destroy void creatures, he slept in the desert for countless years as a split individual.
But in a tremor, he woke up, and began to search for the traces of void creatures, and crushed them on the earth and everywhere.
This time was no exception. He felt powerful void energy, just like what he had seen when he was still a complete Monolith Fortress - a floating city as big as a city, filled with twisted forces that should not exist in this world.
He could also feel void energy of that magnitude on the other side of the continent, so driven by his innate mission, he rushed here and knocked the void beast away.
So he rushed here and saved that strange human being at the last moment.
He originally planned to leave, but Li Ke's words made him confused, so he stopped.
His hundreds of meters tall body quickly collapsed, and the rocks and soil that made up his strong body quickly turned into the most friendly soil under an inexplicable force, returning to the bumpy earth in an orderly manner, wrapping up the limbs and flesh of the huge void creature, and then sinking into the ground.
It is clear that his body is not static, but changes according to his needs.
But even so, when his body returned to the familiar appearance of Li Ke, Li Ke still saw a giant more than ten meters tall. Even his own Gundam was shorter than this stone giant.
"You are very peculiar, little one. But I do not understand you, for, as you can see, I am only a common stone."
Murphy didn't quite understand what Li Ke said. He was a stone, how could he appear in Li Ke's family tree?
"Ordinary stones can't speak, and they can't turn into a giant hundreds of meters tall and hug such a huge void creature and throw it to the ground."
Li Ke stood up, panting. He still felt his head buzzing, but now that the problem was over, he could finally relax for a while.
"Well, because I was once part of a greater being. Unfortunately, now I am the only one left."
Moffitt seemed very depressed when he said this.
But he quickly recovered and looked at Li Ke.
"You are very special. Other villains generally cannot endure this level of void energy, but you can. You can even protect others."
His eyes were looking at Li Ke and Sarah. In his eyes, Li Ke and Sarah were singing a song of life with a strange melody. The rhythm of this song was very similar to that of the void, but it was also different. Li Ke's melody carried vigorous vitality and order, which was different from the void which was beautiful but very chaotic and wanted to devour everything.
This is a good man, just like those ascenders.
"This, um, has a special reason."
Li Ke coughed lightly, relieved that he felt that Void definitely knew his identity, but when facing other people, he was still used to hiding his identity as a time traveler.
"By the way, thank you for helping me. If it weren't for you, it would be hard for me to survive."
His gratitude was sincere. This time he had really walked through the gates of hell. If Moffitt hadn't come to the rescue, he would have been drowned in the human wave. Without the intervention of the gods in heaven, there was basically no possibility of survival.
"No need to thank me, this is what I should do. I still have to deal with the residue, so I'm leaving now."
This was not the first time that Malphite had been thanked. He simply waved his hand and prepared to deal with the remains of the void creatures.
These void creatures are very strange. Even if they are crushed into meat paste, void creatures can crawl out of their meat paste again before they completely lose the last bit of energy, so he must ensure that these things are completely destroyed.
This is a big project.
“Hmm, ah…”
Li Ke still wanted to keep it, but the soil and rocks around Moffitt began to surge, and then its tall figure disappeared among the soil and rocks - then the wind and sand came, burying the bare rocky land into sand dunes again.
Whether it is saving Li Ke or killing the Void Mothership, it seems not worth mentioning to Malphite. It is what he should do.
Instead, it made Li Ke, who wanted to repay him, feel a little embarrassed.
"There are so many strange things in this world. It would be great if I could take Malphite away."
Stroking his sword, Li Ke couldn't help but think of the tornado he had just chopped out, and couldn't help but recall it.
The tornado just now was the result of the right time, right place, and right people. It would be basically impossible for him to create one again now.
First came the hot wind from the desert, and then came the ice tornado that he condensed with the help of the frost from the sky, but the most crucial thing was the turbulence caused by Malphite's collision.
It was with the help of the power of this turbulence that Li Ke was able to successfully use the hot wind in the desert, and thus further utilize physics to create a tornado.
Thinking of this, Li Ke couldn't help but look at the simulated reward he had chosen.
It's rare, it's a talent.
Minor Elemental Manipulation: You can master the most basic elements, but to a limited extent.
"Honestly speaking, with your level, it's hard for me to believe that you are a mage."
——At ten o'clock in the evening, Sharan was giving you extra lessons in your room, panting.
Stretching out his hand, Li Ke tried to condense ice in the desert without the help of the frost.
But after trying for a long time, there was no steam in his hands.
So he tried to gather the wind again, but...
He couldn't tell whether it was the wind blowing from the desert or the wind he created himself, because it made no difference.
"I really am a mage material."
With the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, Li Ke decided not to dwell on this matter anymore. Anyway, with the help of his magical powers, it was enough for him to use some low-level magic.
After all, I am a swordsman who focuses on kendo!
Cold as ice, chilly as snow, a swordsman with nothing but his sword!
Thinking this, he walked towards Sarah on the side, but as soon as he took a step, his mind started buzzing again.
His consciousness instantly entered darkness, and when he opened his eyes, he only saw endless darkness with his own consciousness.
It was still the Void Mothership, but this time it looked much more miserable. Without its huge body, it was only the size of a puppy.
However, Li Ke could still feel the other party's resentment.
He rushed towards Li Ke from the boundless darkness, opened his big mouth, and wanted to tear Li Ke's consciousness apart and let Li Ke die at the soul level.
"I must... kill you... I absolutely cannot... allow you to continue to add new ones... that may... hinder me... I must, kill you..."
A simulation about Runeterra that would make the Void notice me?
Li Ke's mind raced, and she thought of this matter instantly. But thinking did not affect her actions. Facing the charging monster, a blood-colored axe appeared in her hand, and she aimed at the opponent's head and chopped it down directly, splitting the forehead of the charging void creature into a bloody crack.
"This axe is for my Gundam!"
Li Ke, fearless.
Chapter 5 of The Destiny Girl
Along with the sound came the sound of thousands of troops galloping.
Li Ke turned her head, but what she saw was not the strong cavalry that Liu Bei gave her after the Han Dynasty was stabilized, but the first group of people who followed her.
These people had neither swords nor armor, and they did not have the tall and strong bodies of the beggars in the future.
They were half-naked, holding hoes and sticks, even scissors, stones, and broken porcelain pieces. There were not even many young and strong people among them, and most of them were the elderly, children, women and children.
However, they are the strongest team led by Li Ke.
Seeing these people, Li Ke's charge even paused for a moment, and he thought of the poems in his own military camp, which were made up with a mixture of accents from all over the country and which were neither rhymed nor beautiful in later generations.
Or the song:
Begging for life, begging for life, there is no rain.
Begging for life, begging for life, there are locusts on the ground.
I beg for my life, but the officials still extort my fat.
I beg for my life, and the officials eat my fat.
Begging for life, begging for life, the country has wise ministers.
Begging for life, begging for life, the people have a holy emperor.
The granaries are full, but there is no food left for the mouths to eat.
If the world is at peace, I will hang my head on the beam.
If life is worse than death, why not die?
If you can’t beg for life, you can create God again.
In a trance, Li Ke returned to the time when Liu Bei first became rich. At that time, in his camp, the old, the weak, the women and the children who were taken in by him often sat around the fire and sang this song.
Sometimes, they would remove the words "qihuo" to make the song rhyme, but most of the time, there was still no rhythm.
And they made up this song simply because of what they said when they were opposed when they were trying to gather them.
"The people of the world, they just want to beg for their lives!"
Just as she was stunned, an old man holding a carrying pole started shouting.
"General, you think we are too old and weak to kill the enemy!"
This sentence once again brought back her memories.
During the Three Kingdoms period when she lived, Liu Bei worked very hard because he had her as his goddaughter. Although her life was not rich, it was not the life of an ordinary person either.
Coupled with some of her "inventions and creations", she lived a pretty good life and thought the Han Dynasty was pretty good.
Until she left the comfort zone that Liu Bei created for her.
Li Ke turned his head and did not respond to this sentence. He just raised his spear and pointed it at the army of hundreds of thousands of demons.
"Break the formation! Leave no one behind!"
Taking a deep breath, Li Ke once again took the lead and rushed towards the center of the demons. Behind her, the old, the weak, women and children also followed Li Ke's footsteps with roars.
They were not made of flesh and blood, so they were very fast. Some of them even caught up with Li Ke's galloping horse. They took the only things in their hands and rushed towards the fully armed demons.
A demon wearing full body armor looked at a woman rushing towards him with scissors in her hand. He subconsciously stabbed her with the spear in his hand, but it was useless.
The feeling of the spear piercing the woman's heart was so obvious, and the pain on her face was not fake, but the other party did not stop. Instead, she pushed his spear through her body and then stabbed her scissors into his eyes and into his brain.
"What is this!"
He had never seen such human beings before. The human armies in front of them were nothing more than a group of lambs to be slaughtered, and the civilians, driven by their superiors, were even worse than lambs.
but why……
As the scissors stirred, his consciousness disappeared, and the last thing he saw was the woman's figure turning into golden starlight and disappearing.
Golden starlight continued to appear on the battlefield, floating and converging towards Li Ke who was charging at the front. Every time a golden light spot floated to Li Ke, she would experience an emotion, and the feeling of being alive became more and more obvious, and the gun in her hand was swung faster and faster.
The city wall was just ahead, but the demons were still coming in force. Just when Li Ke was about to charge in alone, a hearty laugh came from the golden light that merged around her.
"General! Have you forgotten about us?"
Along with this hearty laughter, a group of soldiers wearing leather armor and holding weapons rushed out from the colorful clouds of golden light. Groups of soldiers rushed out, forming a battle formation in front of her to resist the demon soldiers.
Then, a figure whose appearance Li Ke had almost forgotten spoke to her in a familiar voice.
These people were the soldiers who had followed her to battle and died.
She is indeed unparalleled, but in the beginning, she also needed soldiers.
"That's right! General, just charge and kill! Leave the rest to us!"
Li Ke spurred her horse to charge again, but this time, every time she pierced a formation, a team of soldiers would roar and use their flesh and blood to prop up the wound, making the demon formation even more chaotic and widening the wound torn by Li Ke.
The demon formation began to be divided into small pieces.
The soldiers who kept appearing from the golden glow used their flesh and blood to resist the demons, just like a colony of ants, hunting enemies that were stronger and more numerous than themselves.
but……
Li Ke began to breathe slightly.
She felt that every time a soldier appeared and died, some of her physical strength would be consumed, but looking at these soldiers and the divided demons, she couldn't help but smile.
Because being able to see these deceased people, I can understand her concerns.
So, after passing through the demons' formation again, she stopped her horse, turned around in the rosy glow, looked at the battlefield where fighting was taking place, and raised her right hand.
"kill."
As soon as a simple word was uttered, countless black-armored knights suddenly rushed out from the sunset glow. Each of these knights was wearing full body armor and riding tall horses. Each of them was strong and wielded the best weapons in their hands.
However, there were still two big words on the flag behind them.
Begging for life!
The black-armored knights rushed into the battlefield separated by Li Ke like a torrent. Facing the charge of the heavy cavalry, the demons had no ability to resist. Li Ke just stood there, but they still felt that there was a white dragon raging around them, ready to swallow them up at any time.
As for those human soldiers who suddenly appeared, the heavenly soldiers and generals they had once fought against were no more powerful than them. Although there was only a thin layer of soldiers separating them, and their strength did not surpass those of ordinary humans, even so, these demons with stronger power still could not break through the blockade of these soldiers.
They were scattered, they fled, they were killed.
When the head of the last demon fell in front of Li Ke, most of Li Ke's physical strength had been consumed.
However, she now didn't know how to face these dead souls who obeyed her call and returned to the human world. But it was still the old man carrying the shoulder pole. He just bowed to Li Ke and asked loudly.
"General! Will the world be at peace after we die?"
This is the question that everyone wants to know. When they heard Li Ke’s summons, what they saw was a field of corpses and a large number of demons.
So they were very confused.
Li Ke, who already knew the history of this world, was silent for a moment, and then spoke with some guilt and regret.
"Well, the Han Dynasty enjoyed peace for another three hundred years, and then, chaos ensued again."
Ji Han was ultimately unable to escape the three hundred year curse. Li Ke closed her eyes. If she could have a normal lifespan, she could change many things.
But unfortunately, this is all she can do.
"Very good!"
The old man stood up happily, as if he had heard the happiest thing. He looked around and shouted loudly.
"Did you hear that?! We got three hundred years of peace !"
The people around were stunned for a moment, and then cheered together.
The cheers shook the heavens and the earth.
