Twin Cities: I am the man of many myths

Chapter 206: Conversation with Lissandra, Ancient Secrets, Lissandra's Inquiries

"afraid?"

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Li Ke looked at Lissandra and said very calmly.

Lissandra has indeed made many mistakes, such as backstabbing her sisters Avarosa and Serilda as a younger sister, slaughtering the Freljord people, using the lives of Freljord creatures to seal the Void, and so on.

In this comparison, what Mordekaiser did is really nothing. At least the worst case scenario for Mordekaiser was that he almost destroyed Noxus, but what about Lissandra? She almost destroyed the entire Runeterra.

Because of her own selfish desires, Lissandra almost caused the "destruction" of Runeterra, but it was also because of Lissandra that the Void has been sealed under the Howling Abyss until now.

Ah, you might say, wasn’t the Void at the bottom of the Howling Abyss also summoned by Lissandra?

But the problem is that even without Lissandra, the Void is always eyeing Runeterra. Without Lissandra, there are still Ugly Sandra, Tall Sandra, and Short Sandra.

In short, Lissandra almost became the guide of Runeterra and a super traitor, but after she woke up, she was also the only person who fought against the Void in nearly ten thousand years.

Jax has been praised as a martial saint for his thousand-year battle against the Void, and netizens always praise him when they talk about him. But why are there so many negative voices when it comes to Lissandra?
You should know that before Setaka, Lissandra had already been dealing with the void. She was the first demigod on Runeterra to know about the void, and she was the demigod who had been fighting against the void.

Humans are extremely complex creatures.

To use Camille's famous saying - the world is not black or white, but a delicate gray.

The same is true for people. Take Silko, who is beside Li Ke, for example. If we really want to list the things Silko has done, it is completely correct to classify Silko as a bad guy. He can be beheaded directly. Silko also owes the lives of countless people.

However, Hilco has now become a member of the Twin Cities Congress, leading the Twin Cities towards a better future.

The same is true for Lissandra. The different things she has done at different times, her tendencies towards good and evil, and her motivations for her actions are extremely complex.

Why did she use the power of the void? It was because the humans of Freljord had been forced into a desperate situation. In ancient times, even with the help of the Ice Phoenix Anivia, the living environment of humans was extremely harsh.

In this situation, the legendary three ice sisters led mankind to find a way to survive. The eldest sister Avarosa fought against the twisted matter of Freljord, the second sister Serilda fought against the heavens, and the youngest sister Lissandra fought against the wild god of thunder.

The three sisters led the human race, and they were facing not one demigod, but a group of demigods. In the early days of Freljord, there were many demigods. If it weren't for Volibear killing a bunch of demigods, Anivia's mercy, and Ornn's gift, there would be almost no hope for human survival. In this situation, Lissandra, who had lost her eyes and whose magical talent far exceeded that of her two sisters, heard the voice of "the void".

Yes, Lissandra will use the power of the Void to defeat the war and find a way out for humanity.

But the void is "uncontrollable". After discovering this, Lissandra chose to betray her two sisters, sacrificed the lives of most creatures in Freljord, and sealed the void in the underground abyss of Freljord.

Lissandra is an extremely complex person, and Li Ke would not be so foolish as to label such a person as good or bad.

A wizard who has lived for ten thousand years, what she has done and the years she has lived are not something that Li Ke can evaluate and define.

But Li Ke knew one thing, that is, in the void, in the face of justice, Lissandra was really not Li Ke's enemy.

All Li Ke could say was that Lissandra's approach was wrong and that she chose the wrong method, but he would never say that what Lissandra did was wrong.

After all, if you really trace it back, all humans have to call Lissandra their ancestor.

"Of course it's true." Lissandra raised her hand and waved it, and two chairs made of ice crystals appeared, one behind Li Ke and one in front of Lissandra.

She walked to the chair and sat down, lifting her feet. The small feet exposed under her white skirt swayed, and she "looked" at Li Ke calmly.

"That means I'm really not afraid of you." Li Ke replied and sat on the chair.

Then, Li Ke moved his butt unnaturally. Damn, it was a little cold.

In the dream world, he could feel cold. Well, Li Ke now believed that the rumors were true, Lissandra could really kill people in dreams.

"What's the reason?" Lissandra asked Li Ke.

"Well, I don't know when you started paying attention to me, but what I can say is, Lissandra, my understanding of this world is worse than yours in terms of details, but in terms of some secrets, I know as much as you. I even think that I know more than you." Li Ke said calmly.

"You are not from this world." Lissandra said affirmatively. She looked at Li Ke with eyes without any emotion, like dead water, and said softly: "So, which world are you from? There are hundreds of spiritual worlds, but they are connected to Runeland, and the only ones that are involved are the underworld, the heavens, and the demons."

"You, Li Ke, what on earth are you?"

"." Li Ke looked at Lissandra speechlessly.

No, he had every reason to say that Lissandra was scolding him!
What do you mean, who am I, Li Ke?

"I am from Runeterra. My name is Li Ke, and I am from Zaun, a city-state in the south of Freljord." Li Ke replied.

Lissandra listened and shook her head.

Her white hair was tied into two buns on her head, with two strands of white hair falling naturally in front of her forehead, spreading softly over her cheeks. Her lifeless eyes were closed, and Lissandra said calmly, "You are not telling the truth."

"When you entered Freljord, I entered your dream last time, Li Ke. In your dream, I saw things that did not belong to this world."

"What is a car? What is an airplane?"

"!!!"

Li Ke's expression became unnatural.

Lissandra continued: "Computer, tall building"

"The world you are talking about is different from the Runeland where I am. I do live deep in the Frostguard Fortress, but there are no secrets in this world for me. You came from another planet and came to the Runeland from another world."

"What else do you know?" Li Ke took a deep breath and asked.

Lissandra said, "No, I only saw this in your dreams."

"Don't worry, I'm not curious about the world you once lived in. What I want to know is why you know so many things?"

"Okay." Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Lissandra said.

Fortunately, he didn't think of the game in his dream, and Li Ke rarely had dreams about his past life now. At most, he occasionally thought of putting some of his past life's inventions to use in the Twin Cities. If Lissandra saw that he appeared in the computer and was controlled by someone, Li Ke really didn't know how to explain it to Lissandra.

"It's very rude of you to do this." Li Ke said seriously.

"." Lissandra's expression became strange. She was surprised by Li Ke's words. There were subtle emotional changes on her small oval face, and she even fell silent.

But Lissandra immediately returned to normal. She said to Li Ke, "I won't do that again."

"After all, the fox behind you has discovered me." Lissandra said playfully.

She tilted her head, looked at Li Ke, and continued, "The fox warned me that if I break into your dreams again and spy on your secrets, she will come to find me. But I am curious, how will she find me?"

"She is in the spiritual realm. Without your help, she can't get out, right?"

"That's not necessarily true." Li Ke raised his voice. "Ahri can't come out just because she needs to maintain the stability of that world. But if she is really angry and wants to come out, the weak spiritual boundary can't stop her."

"I believe this." Lissandra nodded, but then smiled and said calmly: "But here comes the problem, Li Ke, that fox is not weak, she is very powerful, some beast spirits in Freljord cannot compare to her, but the problem is, she can't beat me."

"." This time it was Li Ke's turn to remain silent.

In Li Ke's original guess, Ahri would not be weaker than Lissandra, but now after hearing what Lissandra said, Li Ke found that he seemed to have forgotten one thing, that is, if you count the age, Lissandra is much older than Ahri.
Ahri is a creature born in Ionian legend, but Lissandra was born before humans appeared in Ionia.

Let's put it this way. LeBlanc, a woman who has lived for more than 1,400 years, is just a little girl in front of Lissandra.
Seeing that Li Ke was silent, Lissandra smiled, a very faint smile. She looked at Li Ke and continued calmly: "Let's talk about something else."

"How much do you know about the Void?" Lissandra put away her smile and her face became grim.

Li Ke's spirit tensed up. Here it came, the real reason why Lissandra came to find him.

"The void is a lifeless thing. In essence, it is just a ball of powerful energy." Li Ke said after thinking about it.

"Well, go on."

"My understanding of the Void is that the Void itself is a mass of unconscious energy, but the Observer will guide the Void to invade, or in other words, is it the Void's "instinct" that is acting?

The instinct to devour, annihilate, and destroy everything drives the void to turn everything into nothingness. It longs to devour all matter and living things in the real world. "

"That's right. How much do you know about the Watchers? Another question is, do you know how to completely destroy the Void?" Lissandra said hesitantly.

Before coming, she did have hope. After all, Lik was really mysterious. Lissandra had noticed Lik since the first time Lik summoned Ahri to appear in Zaun, but the distance was too far, and Lissandra had to guard the Hall of the Nine all the time, so she couldn't enter Lik's dream. But this time Lik himself appeared in Freljord, so of course Lissandra chose to enter Lik's dream first.

But after entering Li Ke's dream, Lissandra looked at the memory fragments in Li Ke's dream and found that Li Ke indeed knew a lot of things.

Li Ke even knows some secrets that even Lissandra doesn't know.

But even so, Lissandra couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, because Li Ke only had some understanding of Runeterra.

But now, after listening to Li Ke talk about the nature of the Void and the Watchers, a voice in Lissandra's heart inevitably arose, and hope was rekindled.

That is, does Li Ke have a way to deal with the void?

"Me, destroy the void?" After hearing Lissandra's words, Li Ke looked at her speechlessly.

No, what is Lissandra thinking?

I'm hitting the void?
No, what's the difference between this and me fighting Sukuna?
As for how to eliminate the void, how does Li Ke know how to eliminate the void!
In the story of Aurelion, the Dragon King, even a supreme being like the Dragon King has a little fear of the void. This shows that wanting to destroy the void is simply not something that Runeterra can do.

Don't even think about doing this, it's something that cannot be done in Runeland.

But what if we just eliminate the watchers?

"It is impossible to destroy the Void, Lissandra. Don't you know this better than I do?"

There was a hint of disappointment on Lissandra's face, but she nodded.

Yes, to destroy the void. Haha, she has suffered for eight thousand years. In eight thousand years, she has not found a way to deal with the monitor, let alone the void behind the monitor.

"Then, what about the Watcher?" Lissandra asked again.

"It's still possible that he's the monitor." Li Ke said after thinking for a while.

"After all, Shurima did this thousands of years ago. The void disaster that broke out in Icathia was no smaller in scale than the one in Freljord."

"." Lissandra moved her mouth and said helplessly: "The situation in Icathia will never happen again."

Of course, we know about the two photos of the Void incident in Icathia, but it is impossible to replicate it.

It took Shurima hundreds of Ascended Ones and hundreds of Demigods to exhaust the country’s might. Even the Queen died on the battlefield before they managed to resolve the Void. That’s hundreds of Demigods!

In Freljord, there are only more than a dozen demigods who have been hiding and captured, not to mention that these demigods are simply unable to help Lissandra.

They all have grudges against each other. Ornn and Volibear have a grudge, Lissandra and Volibear have a grudge, the wolf god has a grudge against the pig god, and the seal and the phoenix don't get along.
"That's not necessarily true." Li Ke said with a smile.

"These gods of Freljord won't do that." Lissandra shook her head and was about to reject Li Ke's proposal.

But Lik interrupted Lissandra and said, "I didn't say I wanted to rely on the gods of the Freljord."

"Lissandra, just because you are not popular doesn't mean I am not popular." Li Ke's smile became even more intense. He patted his chest and said:
"As for me, I know quite a few demigods."

"In Runeland, I can probably invite four demigods to help me right now, but in the future, I should be able to invite more than 20. And including those outside Runeland, I can now invite six."

"."

"Ah?" Lissandra opened her mouth wide.
