Chapter 468 The Emperor's Test
The golden flames continued to dance in the sky, and when this golden meteor drew a long, brilliant track in the sky, lightning continued to converge from the sky into this meteor.
That’s right, the person who was constantly being struck by meteors was Li Ke who was flying rapidly in the sky.
The wind whistled in his ears and the clouds dissipated in front of him, but he did not dare to fly upwards, nor did he dare to slow down directly.
If I were to ask why...
"Voliber's lightning-attracting ability is really excessive..."
Looking at the lightning entangled around him, even Li Ke felt a palpitation. If he was blind and rushed into a large cumulonimbus cloud with the power of Volibear, he would go in whole and come out burnt.
He was able to absorb electric current, and could even briefly withstand a thunderstorm that was not that strong, but being in a cumulonimbus cloud holding the seal of a god of thunder and lightning who hated him, and constantly drawing lightning towards him, were two completely different concepts.
Although Volibear could not defeat Li Ke, Li Ke was also unable to absorb the power of lightning while fighting with Volibear. There was no explanation at all except that he was seeking death.
"Humans who wish to master the power of thunder and lightning! Feel the power of nature!"
The arrogant voice of Kugimiya came to Li Ke's ears, but Li Ke didn't even bother to listen, because just when the other party roared out these words, countless lightning bolts struck Li Ke at the speed of light, almost breaking the shield of his open apostle power.
Fortunately, a bolt of lightning was weakened and entered the range of Li Ke's shield. It was absorbed by Li Ke's body. Li Ke trembled all over and was almost knocked down from the sky and fell to the ground in one breath.
But his body just tilted slightly, and then he rushed away at a high speed.
To be honest, directly absorbing the power of lightning is very inefficient, because most of the absorbed power is used to repair the body damaged by lightning. But it is obvious that this method allows Li Ke to gain the ability to continue flying. When he was flying at high speed in the air, not only did he not reduce the energy reserves in his body, but he actually increased a lot.
“It just really hurts.”
Anything that comes into contact with lightning will be directly charred. Although the resistance to lightning will increase every time it is charged and repaired with lightning, the increase in resistance is still very slow. After all, Volibear wants to kill Li Ke directly.
The reason why he accepted the constant lightning-inducing behavior was because if he wasn't careful with this kind of operation, he would end up getting himself half killed.
Even if Li Ke flew a little higher, he was unlucky and encountered a large-scale cumulonimbus cloud.
That means you are really going to die.
With lightning wrapped around his body and flying at several times the speed of sound, Li Ke only took half an hour to see the land of Shurima. When he saw the yellow sand floating in front of him, Li Ke felt something different.
The Noxian ship was gone, and the scattered Shurimans seen last time had completely disappeared. What appeared now was a group of soldiers wearing golden armor, standing very solemnly and straight.
Not only that, Li Ke also saw that beside the coastline, countless Shurima warships were guarding countless Piltover ships and unloading cargo from them.
Those people who were obviously dressed like Piltover people watched helplessly as the wheat-skinned Shurima people continued to unload the goods.
"The money has come to my house!"
Not only that, Li Ke also saw a familiar figure.
Nasus, whose body height has recovered to five meters and whose figure is no longer hunched, is standing on a high platform. He has a golden crown on his head and is looking at the port below with a smile and happiness. Li Ke has lost the intention to reminisce with the other party and rushes directly towards this ungrateful bald dog!
"What!"
Nasus looked in the direction where Li Ke was attacking. He only had time to raise his arms and release a dozen magic circles before Li Ke came in front of him.
Li Ke could feel that an invisible force appeared beside him, slowing down his speed and even delaying and distorting the space and time around him.
However, it was useless in the face of his powerful sprint!
The golden apostle power directly collided with the shield held up by Nasus. The next moment, more than a dozen shields and barriers were broken by Li Ke.
Then, Li Ke stepped on Nasus' chest. Before Nasus could do anything, he was stepped on by Li Ke and flew out of the city and directly hit the mountain.
It was not until countless smoke, dust and rocks exploded from the distant mountains that the port city began to experience the aftermath brought by Li Ke.
The violent air blew away the approaching soldiers, and a long gully appeared on the sea, which caused wind and waves at the port and caused the ships at the dock to collide violently with each other.
The exploding sound of the air directly stunned a large group of people, and the platform where Nasus was standing before collapsed directly, almost hitting someone.
However, these are all minor problems. The most destructive one still lies with Li Ke.
The moment Li Ke landed, a deep pit of nearly ten meters was created in the valley where he fell. A hilltop collapsed directly, and the armor on Nasus' body was also dented. He almost vomited blood and fell dejectedly into the pit, with the scepter falling to the side from his hand.
“You were the one who hijacked my ship? Nasus?”
Li Ke looked at Nasus coldly. Those who hijacked Piltover all had Nasus's emblem on them. There was no way this matter had nothing to do with Nasus.
"Ahem...it was indeed me who did it."
Nasus covered his chest and tore open the armor that he had spent several months to make - armor made of stardust, refined gold and secret silver, and countless magic and spells, and threw it aside like waste.
This set of armor did not get destroyed when facing his brother and Xerath, and it played its role, but in front of Li Ke, it was scrapped with just one hit.
"So, here's my explanation."
Li Ke flexed his fists and feet. He did not bring a sword this time, so he kept most of his strength in the sword. Once he had solved the problems here, he would be able to teleport directly to Freljord through the world runes that he was not yet proficient in.
"I'm sorry, but His Majesty wants to test your strength. I know how terrible your strength is and how much you hate God, so..."
Countless yellow sands gathered around Nasus, making his body grow taller and taller, and no one knew when the scepter returned to his hand.
"…I must come in person to let His Majesty the Emperor know how powerful you are."
