Evil will not deceive you

Tearing open the space, Li Ke quickly entered Ulduar.

However, the atmosphere in Ulduar can be said to be quite strange.

Because in front of Hela, who was emitting golden light, countless guardians knelt on the ground, imprisoned by Hela's magic.

Li Ke knew that Hela had not reached an agreement with just one glance, so he directly used violent methods to make these guardians admit that he was the boss here.

However, given that this is the prison where Yogg-Saron is imprisoned, Hela can also be called the prison chief.

But Li Ke has no interest in paying attention to what Hela has done. Now that Uldum is wrapped in his own power, no clues can escape his perception, so it doesn't matter what goes wrong here.

Li Ke went directly to the topic.

"Where is the ceremony I need to prepare for?"

Hela knew what Li Ke was going to do the moment he arrived, so while bowing down, she also used her authority as a guardian to quickly open a passage in the room in front of Li Ke.

"It has been prepared for a long time, Master."

She didn't call Li Ke "Your Majesty" but "Master" to show her loyalty.

Li Ke nodded, walked into the transmission channel, and entered this room that was obviously underground.

Without Hela's introduction, Li Ke contacted this magic circle and after a little research, he understood the principle.

The principle is very simple, it can even be said to be too crude.

It is to use a powerful enough earth element gem, preferably a place close to the center of the earth like Deep Rock Continent, to use the resonance of the earth element to rush into the core of Azeroth, so that your will can contact Azeroth in the center of the earth. The soul of Lars.

It's very simple, but also very difficult, because the soul of Azeroth is protected by her backup file, the Emerald Dream, so if you want to bypass the Emerald Dream, you need a special signal.

And this magic circle is used to allow you to bypass this signal.

After understanding the principle, Li Ke no longer planned to use the magic circle here, but nodded to Hela.

"well done."

Hela quickly smiled, and the next moment, she saw Li Ke stretch out his hand, tear open the space, and then go to a place where she didn't even know where it was.

She looked at the magic circle on the ground and then at the healing space cracks, feeling a little silent.

Hela: "…………"

So, what’s the point of asking me to do this?

What is the difference between you and Odin?

You are exactly the same as my original bastard boss, you know?

I, Hela, am not toilet paper! !

Hela felt that she was being bullied in the workplace again.

However, Li Ke had no time to care about Hela's inner thoughts as before. He just looked at the intact World Pillar in Deep Rock Continent calmly, and thought a little about his good father-in-law, Deathwing.

"I don't know where this guy has gone, but I have never seen you in any ancient god's territory. My good father-in-law."

Li Ke couldn't help but miss his only surviving father-in-law.

After all, Li Ke's father-in-law is already playing mahjong in the Shadow Realm. It might not be good to have one less Deathwing.

It’s quite lonely when I think about it.

So as a filial son-in-law, Li Ke is looking forward to Deathwing appearing in front of him.

Still, business matters.

Li Ke opened his arms. The next moment, the earth elements in Deep Rock Continent felt that a huge force was taking away control of their bodies. The first reaction of the angry earth elements was to riot.

However, when the earth elements found out that it was Li Ke, they all silently chose to accept it.

It’s okay not to accept it. This person can really kill them at will.

soon. Li Ke found what he needed. The next moment, his figure disappeared. When he appeared again, he was already in front of the original earth element lord.

In other words, it was Therazane, the Stone Mother, who was told such heartbreaking words by him.

The body of Stone Mother Thraseon has been almost divided by other earth elements. At this time, only a lot of empty shells are left, but even so, it is the best earth element material for the ceremony.

But Li Ke used her body solely to make her connection with Azeroth stronger.

This seems contradictory to his decision to be careful about contacting the will of Azeroth, but it is not.

Stretching out his hand, he touched the body of Stone Mother Therasain. The huge body quickly began to collapse and turned into an earth-yellow crystal ten meters long and wide. After doing all this, Li Ke He opened his 'teleport' again and came to another place.

And his figure does not exist in Azeroth this time, but in Draenor in this world.

However, some of the places where he appeared were not very wonderful.

The earth beneath his feet kept floating in the direction of the stars, but was pulled back by gravity from time to time. And underneath this piece of land, there is a majestic torrent of energy, releasing the energy of this dead planet.

Yes, the continent under his feet was a fragment of the continent that was destroyed by Draenor and blasted into the sky by Draenor's energy torrent, but could not escape.

But in another world, this is Yrel's home.

"Hmm...but I'm sure the coordinates are correct."

Li Ke didn't know what this strange relationship was, but he didn't get tangled up, and instead teleported the earth element crystal back to life.

The moment the ten-meter-long and wide earth element crystal appeared on this continent, the continental plate began to slowly descend.

Li Ke knew that this was due to the attraction between the earth elements and the magical power of the gem.

But what Li Ke had to do was very simple.

Placing his palm on the earth element gem, Li Ke quickly performed the ritual, but the target of the ritual was not the shattered planet under his feet, but Azeroth, an Azeroth that was thousands of light years away.

The strong Azeroth power in the earth element gem quickly resonated with Azeroth, and with Li Ke's deliberate guidance, the next moment, the ritual link was successful, and Li Ke sensed the looming, Azeroth earth power.

Following the power of the earth, Li Ke's consciousness and thoughts continued to move towards the depths of Azeroth, constantly trying to connect with the will of Azeroth.

But as his will progressed, the power of the earth element was rapidly fading, and at a certain point, there was no earth element in the earth, but something that Li Ke was very familiar with.

Azerite, the blood of Azeroth.

Realizing that he had touched the core of Azeroth, Li Ke began to try to call Azeroth's name, and gradually sensed the incredibly huge soul.

The soul of Azeroth was very large, and Li Ke couldn't even compare it with his own, because the part of Azeroth's soul he observed was as big as the sun of the entire Azeroth!

Li Ke was more certain of the specialness of Azeroth.

At this time, Azeroth finally responded.

Li Ke didn't know how he lost control of the power of the ritual. He first heard a dreamlike murmur, and the next moment-

He stood on an empty water surface, and in front of him.

It was Maria.

It was Jenny.

It was his bakery owner.

"………………"

This look reminded Li Ke of Metis, the bad past, and the disgusting fact that he was pushed to the present.

So he didn't speak, but frowned and looked at the figure in front of him.

And 'Jenny' in front of him was a little strange, because she felt Li Ke's strong disgust for her, but this was completely inconsistent with Li Ke's original intention and idea of ​​coming here. She thought Li Ke would like it.

So, she asked curiously.

"Don't you like this? But I clearly..."

Li Ke interrupted Azeroth directly, because he had figured out where he was.

In the soul of Azeroth, or in the inner world of Azeroth.

His preparation was still the same as no preparation in front of Azeroth.

"You look like this, it only makes me feel sick. Let's talk business quickly, Azeroth, I want to know what you think about the six forces trying to turn you into their appearance."

Li Ke's tone was a little impatient, but he had to confirm this matter, confirm Azeroth's attitude, so that he could make sure whether he would leave here decisively or continue to spend his life here for a while.

"I... don't know."

Azeroth was a little confused, but she still expressed her thoughts.

"Don't know?"

"Yes, the struggle of the six forces made me. The Azerite you absorbed is actually the power of the six forces... Although Medivh deceived you in many things, he did not deceive you in this regard. You want to get Azerite, which is actually the power after the fusion of the six forces... The power to create this world."

Azeroth stretched out her hand, and the next moment, her hand showed a colorful light.

The power of Azerite quickly filled Li Ke's soul, and the lingering sleepiness and fatigue were quickly swept away.

The injury of his soul was repaired.

It was completed in just a moment. The power of Azeroth is so irreversible.

"Azerite is both holy light and not holy light, both shadow and not shadow. It contains the possibility of all power and is the origin of all power... It can become everything, and everything can become it, but what you absorbed before is actually just a part of my power."

"You mean to say that my guess is correct, all energy is actually just energy, just the same form, this so-called Azerite is actually the form of basic energy?"

"Yes, that's right, but not entirely, because it also has the characteristics of the six forces, which is a further power."

Li Ke was silent for a while, and then asked his question again.

"So, what do you think of the will of the six forces?"

"I don't have too many ideas. Although they appeared after the birth of the world, they are also the life of this world. I don't know what kind of feelings I should have for them."

Azeroth is actually very confused, because she knows very well the result of the six forces.

Holy light will bring shadow, bring shadow, and shadow will bring holy light.

The evil energy will burn the current universe, bringing about the rebirth and new order of the next world.

The ultimate of life is death, and after all death, new life will be born.

The Six Forces are a thing in themselves, something that proves and claims the existence of the universe.

So for her, even if she becomes a member of any of the six forces, the final result will not change.

She will eventually realize the fact that the six forces are one.

Only this time, she used Li Ke's power to advance the process by an unknown number of years.

"I can't do anything you can see yet."

Li Ke told the truth, even if he knew that the six original powers themselves were not different, he could still feel the difference in the six original powers when using them.

"But I think it is necessary for us to give those lives a chance to stay away from the battle of the will of the six forces."

Azeroth was silent.

She didn't understand why Li Ke insisted on doing so much for the people of Azeroth. Obviously, as the mother of the people of Azeroth, she didn't want all the people of Azeroth to gain such understanding and understanding.

"Why?"

"what why?"

"Why did you do this? I can feel that you are in pain..."

Azeroth asks a question that many people want to ask.

After Li Ke was silent for a while, he looked at Azeroth's doubtful eyes and spoke firmly.

"Because I can."

His answer was quite firm.

“Because other people didn’t have the vision that I had, I tried to give them the same vision as I did, to try to let go for a short while, but then I was told that they couldn’t, that none of them could do the same thing as me, so I had to I did it. Because I have the ability, because I don’t want to see fools messing up the world, I don’t want to see fools questioning my decisions, and I don’t want to see people in the war. Die for funny reasons!

Azeroth, you are born holy, but I... am the person who stood in front of you from the dirt, not as holy as you! I know exactly what it feels like to have your face pressed into the dirt! So I don’t want to see anyone have a similar experience to me, because it will remind me of how painful it was!

And since you have to do it, you must do your best! Even the best among my knowledge! "

Li Ke actually knew very well that he had been looking at the empire from the perspective of an ordinary person, not from the perspective of the empire's owner.

Because he never wanted to be this bullshit emperor from the beginning. His ideal life is to be a chef in a bakery and live happily with his wife and children. What he worries about every day is what he will eat tomorrow, where to play, and what will happen next door. The bread developed by the street bakery has its own taste.

He wanted to go home, and he had thought about it for a long, long time. Everything in Azeroth made him feel out of place, even now!

Because these Azerothians are as childish as monkeys compared to the people on Earth!

They don't even have the same world view!

But his attempt failed. The people of Azeroth now were unworthy of holding these powers. His last struggle failed miserably, and his last illusion was shattered.

He had to do that cruel thing. He could no longer have the slightest hope that the people of Azeroth could get on the right track.

He must admit that after defeating Sargeras once, he had the illusion of being extremely weak because of the feeling of peace of mind.

But now, with his illusion shattered, he must fight on.

"I am an empire, a loving father, and a cold winter, and I want to open up a truly correct path for my people, even if they are unwilling, even if you are standing in front of me, Azeroth. And all of this The reason is simple, because——"

Li Ke's face was filled with a ferocious smile.

"I am the empire!"
