Evil will not deceive you

But this war with the demons is just the beginning. Everyone can see very clearly that the demons are endlessly advancing towards Azeroth and constantly trying to invade their world.

Almost all the people of the empire know this.

Therefore, they all respect the soldiers who protect them.

However, with the normalization of the war with the demons and the growth of the new generation, many things have changed.

The most obvious is the choice of the emperor's children after they grow up.

Li Ke took a wait-and-see attitude towards this, just constantly maintaining the advancement of the empire, and then constantly building his own isolation network.

But...

His enemies are also crawling forward in it.

The advantage of the demons is too great. If they are allowed to develop, many problems will arise, so they must take the initiative to attack.

But doing so will cause huge casualties, and in order to maintain the occupied areas, they also need to continuously invest manpower and material resources.

But if you don't fight this kind of blood-vomiting marathon with the Burning Legion, then the problem will be more serious.

If you pretend to be an ostrich, the problem will not disappear.

Whether it is the technology that will be constantly upgraded and the battlefield operations, or the problems in the development of the empire, Li Ke's enemies will emerge one by one, and then take advantage of the chaos to destroy everything he has built.

"But it doesn't matter..."

Looking at the slowly forming isolation network, Li Ke stroked his child's head and said this in his heart.

"I will respond to expectations and protect everything."

Shaking the distance, Sargeras wanted to drag down the empire and then let the empire betray him, Li Ke silently closed his eyes.

He saw the future, but he knew very well.

The future is created by people.

He accepted Sargeras' challenge.

"Let Varian and Jarod prepare to go on an expedition to Mardum and launch our expedition."

Li Ke issued his order.

Mardum is the transit station of the Burning Legion, which has the Sargerite Keystone. If this place can be captured, it will be easy to strike against the actions of the Burning Legion and paralyze the marching network of the Burning Legion.

At least it can buy them nearly ten years.

During these ten years, no matter how much Sargeras urged, the people of the Burning Legion could not quickly and massively go to Azeroth and Outland.

In other words, there is no need to worry about waking up and finding all kinds of demons surrounding Outland, and having to give up the resources of Outland.

The Empire needs the resources of Outland, so this battle must be fought.

And after ten years, his children will be able to grow up, and it is time for the Empire to launch a great expedition.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Grayson bent his waist and conveyed Li Ke's order to the front line.

So, the prepared war group was dispatched, and they kept gathering through the reopened Dark Portal, and Li Ke also grabbed his handrails, because of Sargeras's sudden action, he had to use more strength.

He couldn't be with his warriors, but he could ensure that Mardun could be protected by himself, and would not be captured by these demons just after being captured.

It's just that there, I'm afraid it will take a long time for a legion to be stationed there.

But——

He will solve all the problems in one go!

Varian, who had just cleaned up the battlefield and counted the losses, received the order.

"Has the second battle begun?"

Seeing Li Ke's task of asking them to stop clearing out the remaining demons, Varian nodded.

This battle has two purposes. The first purpose is to repel the demons of the Burning Legion here, and the second goal is to attack Mardon when the hub of the Burning Legion's transportation of troops, that is, the fel planet called Mardon, is fully operational.

Occupy this transit station that is crucial to the Burning Legion!

And what they have to do is to hold on.

The Burning Legion will inevitably continue to attack here, so their most important task is to hold on, but they are not alone.

Because Li Ke's power will be with them!

"Mysterious, but the counterattack actually let Jarod go, really, really don't give me face, Li Ke."

Varian laughed, looking at the dense fel energy channel that appeared again in front of him, he smiled.

"But as long as we can fight, it's fine!"

As his voice fell, the Dark Portal began to operate rapidly, and had read the coordinates of Mardum through the breath of the demons transmitted from Mardum. Li Ke, his body was shining with golden light, and this violent light instantly tore the sky apart, leaving a golden scar on the sky.

At the same time, the sky of the Outer Realm was suddenly torn apart by a golden beam of light, and a golden crystal fell in the center of the battlefield that became scorched again.

The golden power of Azerite swept in all directions! The majestic power enveloped the bodies of the fighting imperial soldiers, strengthening their strength while also letting these warriors understand one thing.

Their souls are with the Emperor!

As long as they are covered by this golden power, even if they die, their souls will be preserved and resurrected by Li Ke after the battle!

So——

"Charge! Kill all these bastards!"

Varian roared and launched his own charge, and the brave warriors, bathed in golden light, also launched their charge.

But Li Ke felt extremely distressed, because the fragments of the crystal were part of the isolation network, so they had such magical power.

But this is what must be done.

"Come, demons of the Burning Legion, come and see the curtain of your destruction that I have woven!!"

Indescribable power spurted out from Li Ke's throne, and the emperor's anger resounded throughout the universe. And above the Marton, which was constantly transferring demons, held the keystone called Sargeras. The demon couldn't help but look at the sky.

In the sky they saw, golden scars suddenly appeared on the planet called Marton, and the golden crystal pillars continued to move towards the planet that was once used as a prison. Falling from above!

"what is that?!"

She was horrified and wanted to use this artifact made by Sargeras to escape from here. Here was the Staff of Sargeras and a series of artifacts that Sargeras had built to allow him to enter Azeroth. As long as he could get away--

But it was useless. Almost all the demons sensed one thing, that is, the surrounding space was blocked by a terrible force!

This terrifying power even directly penetrated all Marton's protection, and diamond-shaped crystals the size of mountains continued to fall towards their heads!

"It's over..."

The demon holding countless artifacts in his hands knew that it was the revenge of the life on Azeroth, and that it was the revenge of the man called the Emperor.

It was the revenge of someone with the same power as his master.

So she calmly put down everything in her hands and accepted her death.

But other demons were not like this. In their wails, tens of thousands of mountain-sized Azerite crystals fell to the planet. The power of Azeroth caused the planet to withstand the torment from It has never withstood a powerful force since it was born.

The continental shelf began to shake, and countless demons were bombarded into debris all over the sky just by encountering the shock wave.

The entire planet was almost destroyed by the impact of these golden crystals, but those golden crystals stabilized the earth's core that was about to explode, quickly transformed the surrounding power, and harnessed Marton's twisted power for his own use.

The tremors on the earth quickly calmed down, but golden wounds were forever left in the sky above the planet, proving what a terrible force the planet had been hit by.

And this transit station that the Burning Legion had worked on for tens of thousands of years completely changed hands at this moment!

The Dark Portal quickly unfolded, and a series of evil energy portals also unfolded. Li Ke's warriors and the demons who wanted to take back this place began a new round of fighting.

But under the cover of the golden crystal pillar, Li Ke's warriors were able to exert more than ten times their strength!

The defeat of the Burning Legion on this planet is a foregone conclusion.

Just look at the cheering warriors.

Li Ke knew very well that the real challenge was yet to come.

Defeating an army of the Burning Legion is not truly the end.

The real test is——

People's hearts.

Ten years later.

"If you ask me, those civil servants still get too much."

Looking at the welfare benefits of those civil servants, a young elf looked at his brother and spoke dissatisfiedly.

"How come they can enjoy so many wonderful things without doing almost anything?"

He pointed to the welfare packages for civil servants displayed on his mobile phone. The most obvious one was that all scenic spots were free, wages were not taxed, and house purchases were free.

Yes, although Li Ke provides free housing, he has also opened up some real estate industries so that people can buy the houses of their choice and decorate and transform them according to their own ideas.

But most people still live in the free housing provided by the empire.

"Because they need to dedicate themselves to this empire and disclose everything they can, facing various risks."

His mother, an elf who looked even younger than him, came in with a plate full of his favorite candies, but she obviously heard her child's words, so she spoke.

"And I don't remember raising you to be so ungrateful. Have you forgotten when you were a child? At that time, you still had to buy sweets according to your needs, but what about now?"

His mother put a lot of candies in front of her son and looked at her son helplessly.

"Or do you think you can get food without any labor?"

She was really helpless about her child. Her child had never suffered any hardship since she was a child. When she was a child, she had to help the family while learning spells.

But what about her children? I have been in school since I was a child. When I grew up, I went directly to university. After I came out, I disliked my poor performance in assignments and wanted to take the civil service examination.

But the problem is, why are civil servants so easy to assess? My own children were rejected at the first level.

The reason for brushing it down is also very simple.

He did not have a heart that dedicated himself wholeheartedly to the empire. He took the imperial civil service exam simply for the welfare benefits.

Although no one would say anything, because most people were eliminated in the first round, she didn't understand why her child would say such slanderous and blasphemous words.

But her child spoke in dissatisfaction.

"Ha... I was just standing in front of that machine... The Emperor didn't see my determination at all! And!"

He remembered clearly that he just stood in front of that machine and answered a few meaningless questions, and then he was declared unqualified, but a night elf in the class that he hated got the qualification.

Doesn't this mean that his morality is unqualified? !

"That's the fact, child, you don't plan to devote your life to the empire, so why don't you prove your worth from other places? And, this is the first time I hear you slander the Emperor, if there is a second time..."

His mother looked at her child seriously and gave her own warning.

"I will sever ties with you together with your father. We don't have a child like you who is born in a blessed place but doesn't know how to be grateful!"

The elf boy was dumbfounded. He didn't understand why his mother was so loyal to an emperor who had never stepped down from the throne since ten years ago!

No one even knows if that person is still alive!

"Enough! You don't like me anyway! After all, I'm just one of your children, right?!"

The rebellious teenager roared and jumped out of the window, but he didn't commit suicide. Instead, he grabbed the vine in his hand the moment he jumped out of the window, and then launched his druid spell, letting the vine take him out of his neighborhood.

The boy's mother looked at her child's back and sighed helplessly.

My child is right, he is indeed just one of her children, but the love she gives is the same.

The reason why she said such heavy words was just to attract one person's attention.

"Emperor... Please save my child and guide his confused soul."

She put her hands together and called on her god. The next moment, the golden diamond crystal she placed on her chest shone with golden light.

She knew that her call was successful.

"Praise the Emperor..."

She looked at the mural of the Emperor in her room, slowly knelt on one knee, and praised her life devoutly.

Because she was once a legion soldier!

Sorry I haven't updated this one properly these days because I'm busy with my new book.

But I'll finish writing it in one go for the birthday party!

Don't worry!

But it will be finished this month...

Because there's really nothing else to write.
