Twin Cities: I am the man of many myths

Chapter 258 Star Spirits Enter the Realm, Li Ke is furious, you're causing trouble, then I'll fucking take you down first!
"The Star Gate has been opened!"

"The Sun Spirits atop Mount Targon will gather the pilgrims. Now, the various spirits will select their followers to enter the realm!"

The star spirit at the southwest corner of the six-pointed star spoke loudly.

From the north, a Star Spirit, its body crackling with lightning and unleashing a massive pillar of lightning that formed star lines, immediately spoke up: "The Star Gate, if forcibly maintained, can only support a maximum of twelve Star Spirits entering the realm, and time is limited, so everyone, please do not hesitate any longer!"

"This operation is bound to be fraught with danger. Li Ke has united many demigods from Runeterra, but with the twelve Protoss beings instantly mobilizing their domains, he hasn't had time to gather the other demigods. This victory will surely belong to us!"

"Note: Avoid unnecessary entanglement. We need to finish this quickly, stop Lissandra, and repel Rick and Sejax. As long as we don't try to kill Rick, we'll retreat after Bervis leaves, and then we'll all be safe!"

Forcibly occupying a believer's body in the lower realm is also an extremely dangerous thing for the Protoss. First, Runeterra has developed its own consciousness, and it will reject the Protoss who are in the starry sky and constantly harass those who try to capture it. Second, by opening a stargate and forcibly descending to the lower realm, the Protoss will annihilate the believer's soul and allow their own soul to occupy the believer's body.

In other words, if they die in Runeterra, then they are truly dead.

With Runeterra rejecting them and Rick uniting the gods, going down to the mortal realm is indeed a very dangerous thing.

The Protoss, whose bodies were surrounded by energy and whose faces were not visible, remained silent until a man who revealed his true face stepped forward. He was shirtless, had a resolute face, wore a golden armor skirt, and had knee pads on his legs.

"Since everyone's been dragging their feet, I'll go first and set an example, okay?"

After Pantheon finished speaking loudly, he raised the spear in his hand. A point of light appeared behind his tall body, at the position of his head, and then more and more points of light appeared.

Those points of light converged and linked together, eventually forming a huge constellation.

The light reflected off Pantheon made him shine brilliantly, and his entire body was filled with divinity and a chilling aura.

He is Pantheon, the Protoss of War!
By igniting his own constellation and gathering the power of the planet to strengthen himself, Pantheon's body disappeared into the starry sky in the next moment, having already entered the stargate.

"Panzer, sigh, he's still as impatient as ever."

“Pantheon is powerful, but he has difficulty finding a suitable body. He often doesn’t even want a body that suits his followers. To be honest, he’s probably the only one among us who hasn’t released his star power yet.” One of the Protoss said, igniting his own constellation. In the depths of the starry sky, the planet lit up, and he stepped into the stargate.

Then, another voice rang out, filled with disdain for Pantheon. Judging from the voice, this Celestial was female. A Celestial, wielding a sword in her left hand and a knife in her right, stepped forward. She was slender and muttered, "Nutritious, arrogant, ha, he'll pay for it one day!"

After saying that, the female Protoss entered the Stargate.

The other Protoss looked at each other in bewilderment. Some Protoss chuckled softly, while others shook their heads in resignation, and still others responded with cold indifference.

This celestial being is named Cecilia. She was born hundreds of centuries ago, at the same time as Pantheon. In fact, Cecilia and Pantheon had a good relationship when they were young. However, with the occurrence of another event, she and another celestial being who controlled the power of the Black Moon turned against Pantheon and the Sun.

Black Moon was defeated in that war and disappeared, while she spent countless hours recovering from her severe injuries.

To this day, she has a hostile relationship with Pantheon and the Sun Spirit Corcia, and they are mortal enemies.

The Titans outwardly claim to be united, but many secretly operate independently. Cecilia's situation stems from her defeat in the struggle, and she won't say anything about it.

As for why she doesn't get along with Pantheon, it's not just because of their friendship, but also because of Cecilia herself.

Because Cecilia's celestial name is—Battle Celestial.

Yes, combat and war—these two words are so similar.

As a result, even now, the followers of the Titans only know the name of war, but not the name of battle. Of course, this is also because Cecilia was defeated in that battle and was forced to recuperate and hide for a long time.

In a real fight, Cecilia is no less formidable than Pantheon, which is why she, alone, was able to withstand attacks from both Pantheon and Korcia, two Protoss beings, and still survive unscathed.

"Let's go. The situation is urgent. The star gate has been opened, and we can't afford to waste any more time."

One after another, the Star Spirits entered the Stargate. Their souls wandered above Mount Targon, watching the scene on Mount Targon through an invisible barrier. They saw that the Sun had already selected a group of believers from the Solari.

A group of people dressed in cloth, their faces filled with piety, were kneeling in the snow.

Pantheon was the first to choose his "body". He took a liking to a young man with a beard and a strong body. Without any warning, Pantheon directly entered the other man's body.

The next moment, the chosen man's eyes lit up with joy, and he was about to say something.

"Great Protoss, my name is Atreus."

"Shut your mouth, human! You have no right to speak to me!" Pantheon heard the other's voice in the man's mind and rebuked him in a deep voice.

His expression changed completely; his previous appreciation for the male body vanished, replaced by endless contempt and disgust.

Damn!

He looks incredibly strong, but he's just an ordinary Rakol man?

He has fought and lost repeatedly, yet he has never tasted the fruits of victory. For such a guy to use his own body is an insult to his name!

Pantheon felt angry. He felt deceived, deceived by the appearance of this body. Such a powerful body, yet this person could not use it at all.

Therefore, in the next moment, Pantheon directly used his divine sense to shatter the other party's consciousness, obliterate his existence, and forcibly take over the body.

After taking over this body, Pantheon summoned the War Constellation, and the power of the stars transformed into a spear and a shield. Wielding the spear and shield, Pantheon rose from the ground and soared into the sky, all the way to the east of Mount Targon, in the middle of Shurima.

A few star spirits in the starry sky saw this and a hint of reluctance flashed in their eyes, but then they also chose their own physical bodies.

Cecilia did the same. After much deliberation, she chose a Rakor girl who caught her eye to possess, but unlike Pantheon, Cecilia did not intend to eliminate the girl's soul.

Because if it were Black Moon, she wouldn't do this, so Cecilia, as her best friend, wouldn't do it either.

"Zun, a respected and great star."

"Alright, stop with the nonsense. You don't even know my name. Even if I told you, you still wouldn't know who I am." Cecilia interrupted the girl, speechless, as she listened to her excited, stammering voice.

The girl possessed by her was stunned for a moment, then immediately knelt down, clasped her hands together, bowed her head, and trembled before Cecilia. She didn't know what she had done to anger the Celestials, but the beliefs and teachings of the Rakor tribe taught her one thing: when the Celestials were angry, all they needed to do was admit their mistake and kneel.

Because the Protoss can't be the one who's wrong.

"Why are you kneeling? It's because of you that Black Moon is like this!" Cecilia was a little angry when she saw this, but then she sighed.

Sigh, what's the point of saying all this to this girl?
She has lived in this place since birth, and this is the kind of education she received from childhood. Even if someone is willing to lead them to rebel, become independent, and stand up, they will still think that it is wrong.

Black Moon failed precisely because she blindly trusted humanity.

"Alright, stand up. You don't need to treat me like this. We're not as good as you think. Besides, I need your help to operate in Runeterra. You've all been brainwashed too much." In the girl's mind, Cecilia, dressed in silver armor, waved her hand and said softly.

The girl stared at her blankly, her eyes wide. The freckles under her eyes, which were not noticeable before because of her wheat-colored skin, were now very prominent as her face turned red with nervousness.

"You don't understand, do you? It's okay if you don't."

“Do as I say.” Cecilia said, raising her golden short sword, bending down and drawing a circle on the ground, then beckoning to the girl: “Come here, stay here.”

"Without my order, you are not allowed to come out at any time, or you will die, understand?"

The girl walked up, nodded to Cecilia, and then was "shoved" into the circle by Cecilia, who was two heads taller than her. She squatted down and looked up at Cecilia.

But Cecilia ignored her and instead released her divine sense to embrace the body.

A moment later, on Mount Targon, the frail girl stood up. When she opened her eyes, her pupils were filled with golden light. She raised her left hand high, and the power of the starry sky transformed into a golden short sword. With a clench of her right hand, a cross-shaped heavy shield appeared in her hand.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding Rakol people were overjoyed and all knelt down on the ground.

God!

In the past century, Rakol has produced one Protoss representative: Leona, the current Holy Maiden of the Solari and the representative of the Sun Protoss.

And now, the Lakor race will have another group of Protoss representatives!
How could they not be excited?!

But just as the Rakor people were rejoicing, in the Rakor sanctuary, a young girl wearing a golden crown looked angrily at the flames that trapped her inside. The golden flames formed a wall of fire, trapping her within.

"let me out!"

"Quiet down, Leona, this is their mission." "Mission? Since you've brought up mission, do you still remember the oath I swore?"

“I swore to the sun that I am the sun’s choice, the sun’s incarnation. I will uphold the rule of the Sun Cult, become the guiding light for the people, and lead them onto the right path. I have been striving to move in that direction, but now, what are you doing now?”

"That's not the blessing of star power, it's not becoming a vessel for the star spirits, it's forcibly taking over their bodies! They can't withstand this power, and they will die after the star spirits leave!"

The voice that answered Leona was still ethereal and deep: "I said, Leona, this is their mission."

"Serving the Protoss is their destiny."

"Leona, know yourself. You are just my representative. You have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of the Protoss."

"This is not fair!" Leona cried out. Everyone had been teaching her to be just, to use the light of the sun to judge the injustices of the world, but now that injustice had occurred, those who taught her to be just were telling her to ignore it.

Is this right?
This is not right!
The Sun Spirit, however, was no longer willing to continue the conversation with Leona. He increased his power and ignored Leona's voice.

This kind of Sun Spirit felt unfamiliar to Leona.

"This is wrong! This is absolutely wrong!"

The Sun Spirits have left, but Leona is still complaining.

Sitting on the ground, lost and dejected, Leona vaguely felt those memories she had sealed away being awakened once again.

"Leona, don't stop me. The Sun Spirit is not necessarily right. The current Sun Spirits are not the true Sun Spirits at all."

"I'm leaving, Leona. I'm sorry I lied to you, but please believe me, everything will be alright."

Goodbye, Leona.

The image of her childhood sweetheart flashed before her eyes, and Diana's resolute departure and her words of condemnation of the sun left Leona feeling lost.

"Which side is correct?"

------

If we're talking about the one in Runeterra who can best control Bervis, then Lissandra is undoubtedly the one.

Bervis is an anomaly born from the Void's split. She is second only to the Watchers in power and is an outcast separated from the Void, but in essence, she is still a part of the Void.

Li Ke used cancer to describe her, which is very apt.

Lissandra, as someone truly remembered by the Void, who awakened the Void and then betrayed it, is naturally a painful blow to the Void, and the same is true for Bervis.

Coupled with her powerful and mysterious ability to enter dreams, Belvis's purple ocean was truly like a toy in front of Lissandra.

It's probably impossible for Volibear to actually kill Bervis at this stage, because if Bervis wants to run, Volibear can't stop him, and neither can Ornn. The old goat can kill Bervis with one hammer blow, but he can't shatter this purple sea with one blow.

But Lissandra is different; she can penetrate it and forcibly enter the Purple Sea using dream energy, which is why Rick and Jax are watching from the outside.

And at this very moment, the purple ocean was completely frozen, Lissandra froze 30,000 miles of yellow sand, and heavy snow covered the entire Shurima. This power was far more exaggerated than when Lissandra fought Volibear.

Could it be that Lissandra has become stronger during this time?
Ha, Fart has gotten stronger.
Looking at Lissandra's retreating figure, Li Ke wanted to hurl a torrent of criticism.

To put it bluntly, Lissandra was just conceding defeat! She wasn't using her full strength at all. She was just spouting off a bunch of promises and vows, but Lissandra, that old codger...
Just as Lissandra was about to cover Bervis with an ice coffin, sealing her in the dark ice as if sealing Bervis's ancestor, a cold light pierced through the snowy sky.

As the falling snowflakes melted, a flash of yellow light pierced Lissandra's body.

Li Ke and Jax immediately stepped forward to stop him, but the yellow light flashed and suddenly disappeared, reappearing as it flew towards Lissandra from another direction.

Seeing this, Lissandra shifted the ice coffin to block the yellow light.

Anger flashed across her face. Lissandra and Jax didn't know what was going on, but Lissandra did.

Isn't she hiding her power just to deal with these guys?
The coffin of pure ice blocked the yellow light. As the light dissipated, a meteorite spear stood on the coffin. The spear was not frozen; instead, it seemed to be alive, struggling to escape the witch's power.

Upon seeing this, Li Ke instantly recognized what it was.

“Panzer?!” he blurted out instinctively.

As the voice faded, a roar followed Li Ke's voice, and the spear on the ice coffin vibrated. A beam of light shot through the air and into the sky. In the yellow light, stood a burly man wearing tattered armor.

"Witch, stop." He appeared and spoke.

Li Ke looked at him, took a deep breath, and felt a surge of anger.

How could he not be angry?
Li Ke knew that the Protoss would be his enemies in the future, but he never expected that the Protoss would cause trouble after he killed Bervis!
Because Li Ke couldn't understand!

Don't the Protoss know how dangerous the Void is?

impossible!

They definitely knew!

Because after the Riot Games universe was redesigned, the Celestials of the Titan race are no longer a race weaker than Aurelion Sol, but rather cosmic beings like Aurelion Sol. There must be some among them who have seen the Void like Aurelion Sol. Moreover, even if they have not discovered the Void in space, shouldn't the war between Icathia and Shurima three thousand years ago have given them some insights?
Suppressing her anger, she watched as Belvis seized the opportunity to escape. Due to Pantheon's sudden attack, Belvis broke free from Lissandra's control, flapping his two large wings as he tried to burrow into the yellow sand.

Seeing this, Lissandra gently waved her hand, immediately trying to stop Bernadette from escaping.

With one hand she froze the spear Pantheon threw, and with the other she reached out to grab Bervis.

But suddenly a bolt of lightning struck Lissandra's head. The lightning was incredibly thick and long. Seeing this, Lissandra had no choice but to raise her hand towards Bervis again and shake it. Instantly, a block of ice hundreds of meters long and wide condensed in the sky, blocking the lightning.

Another Protoss has appeared.

"Is this how the Protoss treat the Void?" Rick asked Pantheon coldly.

Pan Sen's eyes flashed with disdain as he said in a deep voice, "She's just an insect. What good is it if she's alive?"

"well."

As Li Ke laughed angrily, one Protoss after another appeared, and in an instant, five Protoss appeared in the air.

Five Protoss stood in the air, calmly watching Rick.

The five of them alone were enough to stop Lissandra, not to mention the seven Protoss who hadn't arrived yet.

And what about Li Ke?

Looking at the appearing Protoss and the strange phenomena on Mount Targon, he said in a deep voice, "I understand. I originally thought that dealing with the Void was far more important than dealing with you, because you are capable of communication, and there are some among you who are inclined towards humanity."

"But now I realize I was wrong."

"In that case."

Pan Sen narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Ke with a cold smile.

Lissandra seemed to realize something, and stopped paying attention to Bervis, instead appearing beside Rick.

"You guys like to cause trouble, don't you?"

Li Ke raised Aatrox, the Aatrox in his hand equally furious. It was just a hair's breadth away from finishing off a powerful Void creature!
But in the end, it's the Protoss again!

These bastard Protoss, claiming to be the guardians of Runeterra, are actually doing utterly inhuman things!

"Kill them! Kill them all! Li Ke, kill them all!"

Li Ke also spoke up:

"Then, I'll fucking fucking fuck you guys first!"
