Twin Cities: I am the man of many myths

Chapter 261 Why do you look like a giant cockroach?

The strange phenomena atop Mount Targon subsided, the white, ethereal silk that had spread across the starry sky vanished, and the Stargate closed after Sinios' departure. Its closure, too, heralded...
"What are we waiting for! Kill them first!"

Li Ke snapped out of his daze and flew towards the nearest Celestial. Of the twelve Celestials, Lissandra killed one, Jax killed one, and Li Ke killed one. Apart from the five who escaped, four remained at the scene!
Although the situation seemed critical, Li Ke was not flustered at all because that Sinios had not entered Runeterra at all. He launched the attack from outside the stars. It seemed that he wanted to destroy Shurima with one blow, but in reality, Sinios's energy was only locked onto Li Ke.

In other words, all Li Ke needs to do is use Soul Lotus and dive inside, and Sinios will be unable to do anything to him.

Because of Li Ke's disappearance, the energy that Sinos had locked onto would lose its target, and the force would dissipate on its own.

But in the end, did it actually lure Soraka out?
This is interesting.
Lee's expression was slightly strange. His hatred for the Protoss had already reached 99% after all these events, and was about to reach 100% in a fight to the death. However, Soraka's appearance caused Lee's hatred to regress considerably.

Not all Protoss are enemies of Runeterra; there are some Protoss who can be cooperated with and negotiated with.

As for Soraka, well, her words are not as simple as negotiation and cooperation. To put it bluntly, the Zaunites should treat Soraka like royalty, because Zaun has received Soraka's help in the past.

Soraka is a true deity, not a spirit.

She is universally loving, kind, fair, and good; she embodies all good things.

Whether in the old version of the Soraka story or the updated version, this applies to both.

Soraka's character can be portrayed as a saint, especially in the new story, where she endures the pain of being burned and resolutely descends to the mortal realm to save those creatures she sees as lost, namely humans.

In Soraka's view, humanity is full of boundless energy. They grow wildly and savagely, deviating from the grand plan arranged for them by the Titans and ignoring the destiny woven by the stars. Worse still, the human mind is easily influenced by chaos, uncertainty, suffering, and other such things.

The other Protoss of the Titans treated this as a joke, like watching ants fend for themselves in a container. They didn't care at all about the nascent signs of human development. The wars and the desperate situations and despair that humanity faced due to going astray were nothing more than a game, a farce, in the eyes of those Protoss.

But Soraka was different; she couldn't stand by and watch any longer.

She was originally a wandering Celestial Spirit. Although she was a member of the Titans, she did not join any faction. While wandering around, she saw potential in humans, so she left the Titans, left the Celestials, and came to Runeterra.

Where did she go over these thousands of years?
Look through history books and listen to the songs of bards, and you will find the answer.

In some tribes of Freljord, there is a story of a wanderer from afar, who has beautiful long horns and soothes frostbite in the coldest winter.

Beneath the ditch of Zaun lies the story of a doctor with lilac-colored skin who treats the lungs of patients suffering from smog for free, never charging a fee, and even sharing her own food.

In Ionia, the oldest Vastaya Xari myth recounts a miracle: a prophet from another world could speak with the stars, summon starlight to heal the wounded, and enlighten the lost souls of the newly born land.

In Noxus.
In short, wherever there is suffering, there will be Soraka. She will always appear beside those who are bullied, in pain and despair, bringing them hope for life with her words and magic.

Therefore, once you learn about Soraka's story, you will surely admire her.

The same applies to Li Ke.

This is not the weak support character that everyone in the Rift hates and beats, but a truly powerful and virtuous god.

Speaking of which, in Riot Games' lore, aren't the backstories of support champions all incredibly impressive?

Thinking about it, Rick and Ramos had already joined forces to drive a Protoss into the ground.

On the other side, Lissandra also froze Cecilia. The powerful Star Spirit Sword and Shield left her hand and were slammed to the ground by the ice coffin. Lissandra glared at Cecilia with a ferocious expression.

Just as Lissandra was about to make her move, she suddenly frowned and looked into Cecilia's eyes.

Cecilia's eyes had two pupils of different colors; one was Cecilia's golden pupil, while the other was a pure and bright turquoise.

Those eyes were clean and innocent, looking at Lissandra with the same fear as a fawn.

In those eyes, Lissandra saw another soul. Upon seeing this, she immediately bent down and reached out to touch Cecilia's head.

"Get out! You don't need to do anything, I'll leave her body myself!" Cecilia shouted when she saw this.

"Don't look down on me, witch. I never intended to use her as a hostage! I am a high and mighty Protoss. As a god, if I can't even protect my followers, and in the end, I need my followers to sacrifice their lives and take the blame for me, what kind of god am I?!"

As she spoke, a phantom soul emerged from that golden pupil—a tall, graceful beauty with curly hair.

Then, the soul emerged from the eyes, and Lissandra took the opportunity to move the ice coffin away and suppress the soul instead.

The beautiful female knight's soul had just emerged when she let out a muffled groan and was then suppressed in the ice coffin.

The girl who had been staying with Cecilia got up, stumbled over to Cecilia, knelt on the ground, and cautiously said to Lissandra, "My lady, please, please don't."

"Get out of my way!" Cecilia said irritably from behind. With a look of certain death on her face, she declared loudly, "The victor is king, the loser is villain. Since I chose to descend to the mortal realm, I was prepared to bear the consequences."

Lissandra calmly looked at Cecilia, spread her fingers, and then pointed them at Cecilia.

She wasn't the type to change her mind based on a few words from others. If it weren't for the fact that she had a vested interest in Li Ke and that she genuinely saw hope in him, Lissandra wouldn't have allowed Li Ke to grow so much and would have willingly been driven by him.

She's a witch, the Ice Witch. Throughout history, a third of Freljord's population has perished at her hands. How could she possibly be a soft-hearted person?
Meanwhile, Ramos, the tortoise, pressed down hard on the Protoss's arm with its two little claws, lowered its head and nudged the Protoss with its head, suppressing the Protoss and preventing it from moving.

Lee, meanwhile, stood with his legs spread apart on the Protoss, gripping Aatrox with both hands and about to thrust downwards forcefully.

But just as Lissandra and Rick were about to make their move at the same time, a dazzling starlight flashed and appeared on their wrists.

Lissandra opened her pale pupils and looked at her wrist. She saw that the starlight on her wrist had been frozen into ice. It was not real starlight, but energy magic.

Then, Lissandra flicked her wrist and turned to look at a certain spot.

Li Ke was different. He wasn't as strong as Lissandra. He was restrained by the starlight, and his hands were completely powerless.

Seeing this, he simply took a step back, and with that step, the strange force clinging to his wrist vanished instantly.

Looking in the same direction, a woman with long horns on her head, purplish skin, and a beautiful face appeared. She wore a long, form-fitting dress that revealed her beautiful figure, but what emerged from under the dress were a pair of hooves.

Are those sheep hooves?
The hooves were long and delicate, with a golden ring on the left hoof.

Above that are her calves, which are no different from human legs. As she walks, her skirt parted, revealing glimpses of her full, smooth, purple thighs.

Well, given Kindred's situation before, Li Ke wasn't surprised to see these hooves. But the difference was that Kindred's legs were straight and slender, while Soraka's were different. They were plump and well-proportioned, with full thighs, slender calves, and even a gold ring around the hoof.

What the hell is this? Shouldn't people be like this?
"I'm sorry for stopping you, but could you please listen to my suggestion first?" Soraka appeared apologetically and looked at Rick seriously.

"You want to save them?" Rick looked at Soraka and said calmly.

Soraka nodded, looking at the four Celestials who had been suppressed. Lissandra had suppressed two of them by herself, Rick and Rammus had taken down one, and the other was being controlled by Nasus.

Four Protoss beings—that's four demigods.

“The Protoss have already paid the price for forcibly descending to the mortal realm. Besides, I have a better way than to kill them,” Soraka said to Rick.

Li Ke looked at Lissandra, wanting to see what she thought.

When Lissandra saw Li Ke looking at her, she simply turned her head away, put her hands on her chest, and said softly, "That's enough, I'm going back."

“Do it however you like,” Lissandra said.

Soraka is really strong! Lissandra estimated that she was somewhat inferior to her, and this was in Runeterra, where she was constantly suffering from the pain of the rules burning her body. If they were outside the stars, the gap would be even greater.

Didn't you see that when Sinios saw Soraka, he immediately chose to give up?
If Rick knew what Lissandra was thinking, he would say, "She's the Child of the Stars!"
Soraka's backstory is that of a street urchin, someone who probably roams around in places like "Celestial Realm." Could she possibly be weak? Plus, with this official title, the name "Child of the Stars" is incredibly prestigious.

Although she didn't know what kind of being Soraka was in the Celestial Realm, Lissandra couldn't be bothered to care. Anyway, she had already gotten into the habit of leaving troublesome matters to Li Ke.

When Li Ke needs me, I can just step in, right?

So Lissandra left without a word, disappearing from the spot.

After she left, the snow in Shurima stopped, and moisture began to appear on the frozen ground, which would soon melt due to the high temperature.

Seeing Lissandra leave, Soraka seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, patted her full breasts, and looked at Rick with a gentle smile, saying, "Please hear me out, Rick."

"Killing them won't do you much good. The Giant God Clan is no longer what it used to be, and there is no longer any unity within the clan. They are nothing more than other people's guns and swords, blindly following the strong. But since they can follow other strong people, why can't they follow others?"

After a moment of contemplation, Li Ke said, "I am not a Protoss."

“They certainly won’t follow you,” Soraka said, somewhat speechless, pointing to her face with a smile. “I’m talking about myself.”

“I’ve been keeping an eye on you, Lee, or rather, I’ve been keeping an eye on everyone on Runeterra. And you know so much, so I think you understand me to some extent.”

Soraka looked at Rick with her golden eyes and said seriously, "So, I think you will believe me."

"."

"Alright, consider this a thank you for helping me earlier." Rick carried Aatrox on his back, ignoring Aatrox's impotent rage.

Seeing that he could no longer kill the Protoss, Aatrox was naturally dissatisfied. However, he was now affected by the power of Li Ke's Soul Lotus rule and was no longer affected by the blood energy and the void. As for why he was still shouting, that could only be attributed to Aatrox's personality.

"Thank you," Soraka said with a smile.

Then, she clapped her hands lightly and turned to look at Cecilia.

“Cecilia, would you like to follow me?” Soraka asked.

"Following a traitor like you?" Cecilia rolled her eyes dismissively. The female knight, Star Soul, sat upright on the ground with her arms crossed and said, "Kill me if you want, or let me go!"

Just kidding, after being deceived along with Black Moon, Cecilia has been living alone ever since, and she will never join any faction now!

Even if she were the Child of the Stars, the Central Region Star Lord who was given the title of Uncrowned Lord, Cecilia would not do that.

Seeing this, Soraka chuckled and shook her head: "Alright, but what if I told you that as long as you follow me, I can revive your Black Moon?"

Cecilia, who had previously appeared resigned to her fate with an air of righteous indignation, instantly changed her attitude. She stared at Soraka with wide eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "Are you serious?"

“I know who has inherited the Black Moon’s legacy. Her representative lives in the vicinity of Mount Targon. Since she has a representative, she must still be alive.”

"I agree! I'll go with you!"

Cecilia made a decision instantly.

As for the other three Protoss, who would want to die?

Besides, by following Soraka, they weren't exactly traitors. Although it's unclear whether Soraka or Sinos was stronger, Soraka's strength was already at the level of a Star Lord, given her title of "Uncrowned Lord."

Following her is a good thing!

Li Ke watched calmly from the side. He knew that Soraka had a lot to say to him after she finished dealing with these matters.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

At the same time, after learning that the matter was over, Jinx immediately boarded the Janna plane and flew from the port of Shurima to where Rick was.

Along the way, Jinx lazily gazed at the ground, but when she passed a depression in the wet sand, her eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Wait a minute!" Jinx slapped the large, fat bird beneath her hard.

"Hmm?" The goddess was still half asleep.

"Back up a bit, there are still some survivors. There was something moving in the sand just now!" Jinx said. She has a sharp eye. You know, she's a scientist, but she's also the second place winner of the Twin Cities Gunfighting Tournament!

The first place goes to Caitlin.

But when it comes to speed, Caitlyn is no match for her! Therefore, Jinx's eyesight in the Twin Cities, excluding the superhumans, is arguably the best in both cities, possessing unparalleled dynamic vision!
"call"

Rapid, panting sounds echoed beneath the sands of Shurima. The sounds were somewhat sensual, with a mature, womanly tone and a hint of hoarseness that comes with a dry mouth.

After catching his breath a few more times, one hand suddenly emerged from the sand and struggled to grab onto the sand next to him. Then, another hand reached out.

These two hands possess a strange beauty; the fingers are long and slender, yet covered with sharp spikes, and the entire arm is encased in a hard carapace.

Then, by exerting force with both hands, a furry head appeared in the sunlight.

Her beautiful black hair was covered in sand. She spat out the sand from her mouth and squinted. She hadn't seen the sun for a long time and was naturally not used to it, but there was a protective membrane on her pupils, like that of an insect.

The ground appeared in her eyes, and although it was still blurry, it brought her joy.

"I... I'm finally out."

She shouted out, and after the initial joy, her face hardened, as if she had made a firm decision.

Then, she tried to pull herself out of the ground, but as soon as she put her hands to work, she turned her head and looked behind her.

His eyesight was still limited, but he could still make out what was facing him.

It was a very beautiful hand, so white it seemed to glow in the sunlight, with round, pink fingernails, and blue nail polish on the index and ring fingers. It was holding a small wooden stick.
The small wooden stick had a strange texture, like a mixture of metal and plastic, with a dark hole in the very center. But looking at that hole, the strange woman had a bad feeling.

It's a feeling of palpitations when facing danger!

Then she heard a mischievous voice.

"Hey, what the hell are you?"

"I thought I was going to run into Rex!"

The pleasant, mischievous voice, tinged with a hint of displeasure, continued:
"Hey, why do you look like a giant cockroach?"

"Have cockroaches become sentient?"

Kasha gradually adjusted to the sunlight, and then she saw a girl with beautiful blue hair wearing a straw hat.
