Me and countless me.

Chapter 390: Star Warriors Driven by Emotion

Xiuwu completely submitted to Li Ke, or rather, he recognized and admired the future that Li Ke saw.

Because he has realized that what he sees in this man's eyes is a feasible future, a future that should truly exist!

"I decided to stay and help you... No, I beg you to let me stay and help you, to help you achieve what you see in your eyes."

He covered his heart. His heart had never beaten so strongly, and he had never been so eager to see more scenery.

It was not because he destroyed his eyes for Kenshiro or the North Star he once saw, but because he saw a greater dream and a greater prospect!

"Of course, I am willing to accept anyone who is willing to recognize this dream."

Li Ke stretched out his hand towards Xiuwu. Although he rebelled against fate and the world, it did not mean that he thought Xiuwu in front of him was a bad person. That was why he used all his strength to launch a healing attack!

The best way to make such people accept punishment is to let them know that they are wrong, and because he is a good person, it is a pity to kill him!

The real truth is not afraid to be seen and understood by others! It is definitely not impossible to convince others!
This is his boxing philosophy!
"Thank you so much..."

Xiuwu shed tears again. This man finally saw the hope of saving the world.

What made him regretful was that, because he didn't know many things, Li Ke only arranged for him to do civil affairs, that is, to help organize the orphans' information and teach them.

This is not an easy task, because although many of the orphans in the wasteland are abandoned because their parents were killed, there is also no shortage of disabled or sick children.

In addition, Xiuwu was also responsible for leading patrols to rescue those who were abused and enslaved, as well as collecting some medicinal herbs and other things.

All in all, his joining, like Yulia's, helped Li Ke reduce a lot of pressure.

Yulia has a unique ability of prophecy and perception. She can easily sense whether a person is lying, a spy, or whether there is still hope. She is a very good person when it comes to selecting people to join the territory. Although Li Ke can do similar things, he has too many things to do, so with Yulia, he is indeed a lot more relaxed.

After Xiuwu came, the same effect was achieved. Many of the autistic orphans that Li Ke was troubled by, this gentle and righteous man could easily untie their knots with Yulia and make them become sunny and optimistic, which made Li Ke very happy.

only……

Some subtle things still happened.

"what is this?"

After an internal leadership meeting, Li Ke looked at the lunch box placed at the door of his office and smelled the fragrance. After he opened it, he found that it contained a very sumptuous meal, even a lot of meat.

Xiuwu, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

"It should be given to you by a girl who likes you. I can feel that it is full of love."

He had seen this lunch box in Mamiya's hands, and Mamiya had also asked Li Ke what he liked to eat, but...

"I have always eaten from the same pot with the workers. If anyone really likes me, they should know this."

Li Ke frowned. He didn't have time to find a wife now. Even if he did, he would most likely look for someone who had a good reputation among the common people and was recognized as gentle and kind, to do some work that men were not suitable for on his behalf.

Moreover, as a leader, he eats such good food. Those who know about it would think that someone is pursuing him, while those who don’t would think that he is being treated specially.

It's not conducive to unity.

So he stretched out his hand, sensed it a little, and after finding that there was no smell of poison that he was familiar with, he handed the meal to Xiuwu.

"It's too much for me to eat this. Share it with sick children, but don't do it openly, otherwise some rascals will make themselves sick just to eat a few more bites of meat. By the way, inform the whole district that if you really like me, don't cook for me. Study and work more, improve yourself and benefit mankind. Also, check whether this is given to me, because if she is not thrifty, then she is embezzling. But if it is not embezzlement, send my meal ticket to her, so that she won't starve herself to death."

He spoke sincerely, because he was now implementing a rationing system, so he was able to save so much meat. The woman who sent him this meal was either on a diet or embezzling, and she would be investigated in any case.

But when he said this, Xiuwu, who knew that the food was sent by Mamiya, spoke half helplessly and half as a reminder.

"Are you hurting her too much?"

Li Ke slammed the lunch box heavily in his hand and spoke speechlessly.

"Damn it, do I look like someone who has time for romance now? Don't you think that if you bring your people to join me, how could that bastard called the Emperor of Heaven let it go? Moreover, he wants to capture people to build the pyramid for him. According to what you said, when you leave, even the elderly and children will be captured to build the pyramid... What do we want to do if we don't overthrow such a force? How can I have time to care about love between men and women?"

Although Xiuwu's joining brought a lot of children and reliable young labor, it also brought a trouble to Li Ke, that is, the so-called Holy Emperor.

"That person is actually called Saint Emperor Saoser, and the Emperor of Heaven is someone else..."

Xiuwu gave a small reminder, because Li Ke was too busy. When he and Yulia were telling Li Ke about Nandou Beidou and even other styles of boxing, Li Ke was either directing the plastering or screwing, or driving piles and foundations.

Sometimes they were even beating up invading thugs, so Li Ke only heard intermittently. He only knew that the Saint Emperor's territory was very close to them and that he was a bastard, but he didn't even remember Saoser's name...

"Anyway, they are just bastards who will be overthrown and killed by me, so it doesn't matter what you call them."

Li Ke answered casually, and Yulia couldn't help laughing. She could now more or less follow some of Li Ke's jokes, and she was no longer disliked by Li Ke like she was at the beginning.

only……

Looking at the lunch box brought by Mamiya, Yulia quietly put the cookies she made back into her arms. She originally wanted to share them with Li Ke, but looking at Li Ke's look, if she took them out, Li Ke would probably give them to those children.

She decided to share the cookies with Li Ke when the new cement and asphalt plants and the new school were built.

It’s not that she didn’t want to share with the children, but what she gave to the children was completely different from what she gave to Li Ke, and she had prepared some for the children as well.

Li Ke didn't pay attention to Yulia's little actions.

"That's good, but Xiuwu, have you collected all the information about the supplies and usable machines in Saoser's territory? I think he will come to me soon, and if nothing unexpected happens, Rao will probably come to me after I get rid of the Holy Emperor."

"There are many steel mills in Saoser's territory, but because there are no ores, workers and energy, the crucibles and furnaces inside have been sealed by solidified molten steel. However, there are supporting places such as wire factories, but just like the steel mills, due to the lack of raw materials and subsequent destruction, I am afraid that only some mechanical shells can be used inside."

Xiuwu told Li Ke the information he had gathered and handed a stack of maps to him.

This is new paper made in Li Ke's territory. It is made from various waste papers. Although the quality is not very good, it is enough for writing documents and making teaching materials for children.

Li Ke looked through it and felt a bit of a headache, because from the information he knew that the parts of these machines were either dismantled by the thugs to make decorations on their bodies, or were taken away to make props of unknown meaning.

The gang of bandits he wiped out last time used high-quality chips and circuit boards to make arrows, which almost pissed him off. So it was a good thing that there were still some mechanical shells left in these factories. He could still piece together some machines if he found some parts.

As for the quality...

It's so funny. The most important thing now is whether there is a problem or not.

"Having a shell is a good thing...but the iron ore on the ground is basically used up."

Li Ke felt a headache when he looked at the land in the distance. Before the nuclear war, the surface resources that could be mined were almost consumed. Now the shallower mines are basically under a thousand meters. In the industrial era, it was quite difficult to use large machinery, let alone now.

If you go to the city to mine, the reinforced concrete "mine" is really silent. Especially for the buildings that can stand up to the present, the strength of the cement is too much.

However, at this time——

"You don't need to worry about the mines."

Yulia closed her eyes. She used her power to predict the future and understand people's hearts to notice Li Ke's distress, and then quickly found a solution. Then, she stretched out her finger and pointed at a sea behind the territory of Saint Emperor Saose on the map.

At least where the sea used to be.

"Two months later, there will be a small-scale volcanic eruption 200 kilometers away from here. The scale of this eruption will not be very large, and we will hardly feel it here, but the area that was originally an ocean but is now a desert will also expose a large amount of mineral materials due to the earthquake. Moreover, part of the underground sea will gush out due to the earthquake caused by this volcanic eruption. Although humans cannot directly consume it, some surviving blue algae, green algae, and krill can be seen from it."

The moment she finished speaking, Li Ke pressed the map.

"really?"

Yulia nodded. Although she was not proud of her power, her predictions and perceptions were never wrong!

"Really? That's something that fate and heaven and earth brought to Saint Emperor Saoser's rule. It's just that the location is quite remote and difficult to find, but..."

A look of sadness came over her face.

"But he won't use it, because there is no one else in his heart, only himself."

Saint Emperor Saose, although he has the word "holy" in his name, but in Yulia's eyes he is just a bastard and cannot be compared with Li Ke at all!

Li Ke, who was being targeted by heaven, earth and fate, asked carefully.

"Then I won't just disappear if I go there?"

Yulia was also a little worried about this, so she reached out and held Li Ke's hand.

She was able to see a clearer future with the help of other people's bodies, so after holding Li Ke's hand, the originally vague future instantly became clear, but after seeing the appearance in it, she couldn't help but laugh.

Because Li Ke will indeed be targeted after he goes there. Whenever he goes there to fish, the fish there will spit water on Li Ke's face, and will hang around Li Ke's fishhooks in broad daylight and do high jumps on Li Ke's fishing rod. But there will be nothing more. The resources there will not disappear, nor will they be suddenly cut off.

So she gave Li Ke a bright smile.

"I saw the children happily eating fish and salt, and the way you were spit on by the fish."

Li Ke immediately understood that Yulia saw the future in which he would appear there, which meant that the resources there would really appear!

Excited, Li Ke subconsciously hugged Yulia!
"That's great! Yulia! I really like you! Now we won't lack either salt or meat!"

He almost kissed her, completely losing his initial disdain for Yulia, and then decisively let go of Yulia and hugged Xiuwu and others on the side.

Because he is so happy!
Although there are all kinds of magical plants in the Dragon Ball world, his subjects don't have to worry about malnutrition, but there are still too few things like fish and shrimp! With seawater, algae, and krill, his subjects can eat more, and corn can also be used to make industrial alcohol.

Even seasonings like salt will not be lacking.

Yulia's cheeks blushed with shame. Even when she was taken away from Kenshiro, she had never been treated so intimately!

Although Sheen kidnapped her, he treated her like his mother, and at most he would touch her hand. Although Kenshiro would hug her, most of the time he would hug the other person.

However, seeing Li Ke so happy and those big shots in the eyes of others sincerely happy for allowing others to eat delicious food and more meat, Yulia subconsciously stroked her arm. When she looked at Li Ke's figure, she couldn't remember what Kenshiro looked like.

and……

"...Can Kenshiro do this?"

She looked out the window at the children and residents whose faces had healthy blushes and smiles again, and couldn't help but think about this matter in her heart.

The stars are shifting, and the power of fate is working rapidly, brewing the next counterattack and the strongest attack afterwards!

The illusion appeared again!
"That guy Xiuwu..."

Saose, named the Holy Emperor, angrily crushed the cup in his hand, looked in the direction of Li Ke's territory, and a cruel smile appeared on his face.

"That guy didn't pledge allegiance to me, but to an unknown 'savior'? Very good, very good..."

He stood up, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. He stood up suddenly and looked in the direction of Li Ke. The stars quickly shone in the sky!
"Then let me send this savior to the cross!"

And at the same time——

"Have the stars of the Big Dipper actually started to shine?"

The man named Tochi looked at the stars in the sky and was shocked to find that both his own star and Rao and Kenshiro's stars were getting brighter!

Power was continuously entering his body, and he felt that his two brothers were the same. He could feel that the radiation sickness in his body was being suppressed by this power, but if he lost this power, his radiation sickness would only become more severe, and he might even die on the spot!
He knew very well that this was all caused by the man named Li Ke, but Tochi had no intention of fighting with Li Ke. He just wanted to see if Li Ke was really as he said, not just wanting to rule mankind, but to lead mankind into the next era.

"The sea of ​​stars? What an exciting future."

He sighed. He knew very well that he didn't have much time left. Once fate knew that he would not fight with Li Ke, it would be time for him to die.

But before that, he has to settle the grudge with Beidou and stop Kenshiro from becoming hostile to Li Ke because of Yulia!

The destined savior and the autonomous savior should never be hostile to each other for such a reason!
Yes, at the moment when Li Ke hugged Yulia, the power of fate made him see this scene, and his heart twitched violently.

And he was very sure that not only himself, but probably everyone who loved Yulia had seen this scene!
The fact is indeed just as this man named Tochi thought. Everyone who loves Yulia saw this scene, not only the man who was respected as the boxing king Rao, but also Kenshiro who was regarded as the savior by all the star fighters, everyone saw this scene!
"Yuliya..."

Closing his eyes, tears flowed from the corners of Kenshiro's eyes, because in that illusion, he saw the sincere happiness on Yulia's face, that smile that Yulia had never shown since the nuclear war!
That happiness was very complicated. It included the happiness of having her own ideals and wishes realized, and the happiness of having her own abilities recognized. But no matter what, it was a happy smile that she had never shown in front of Kenshiro.

It seemed that Yulia had found her place beside that man, allowing her to use her abilities and strength perfectly!
He felt lost and painful because of this, because when he was around, Yulia would only smile when he did something good, not because of her own abilities and role!

"Yuliya..."

As his punch hit the wall, Kenshiro's mind was filled with doubts, with only one question left in his mind.

Will Yulia give up this happiness and live in seclusion in a place where they will not be disturbed, as they had promised with him?
He didn't know, but -

I already have the answer in my heart.
