Hey, Piltover, good evening, this is Li Ke from Zaun!

As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, Vander transformed into a streak of light and shot out.

With the blessing of the Deity's Soulstone, Vander doesn't need to worry about being devoured by the bestial nature within him when using his power.

Singed had worried about this before; he brought it up at the dinner table the night Vander returned, fearing that Vander's savage side would overpower his humanity in battle, causing him to attack indiscriminately and harm himself.

Li Ke almost burst out laughing when he heard that.

If you're not Singed, aren't you overestimating yourself a bit?

I, Li Ke, acknowledge that you, Singed, are a peerless genius, but to place yourself on the same level as Ahri? That's a bit too arrogant, isn't it?

Although the description of the Deity's Soulstone item states that it contains a trace of the Deity's power, even a trace of that power is Ahri's power. If Singed could suppress Ahri's power with the corpse of an unknown magical beast from Runeterra, what would become of Ahri?

Why bother Spirit of Salvation? Just become Little Fox that catches butterflies and sells them!

Therefore, Vander charged ahead, his massive body blocking an area on the bridge, becoming a mobile wolf-shaped shield. The spears could not pierce his monster body, only leaving a small opening or penetrating a few centimeters. But with a flick of Vander wrist, the spears fell to the ground, and his injuries were instantly healed.

When Li Ke and Vander were fighting, this guy had his arm ripped off by Li Ke, but within half a minute, a large claw grew back.

As long as the injury isn't directly fatal, Vander can regenerate indefinitely—this is definitely Singed's doing.

Li Ke followed, and although he didn't have the same physique and visual impact as Vander, the destruction he caused was greater than Vander's.

Li Ke is faster and more destructive.

The Noxians were indeed excellent fighters; even when facing monsters, they maintained their formation, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, protecting Ambessa. But sometimes, unity and excellence alone are not enough to secure victory.

Faced with absolute power, tactics and teamwork are nothing but empty talk.

"Everyone, charge!"

"It's our turn to fight the Piltover people!"

Ekko reacted quickly, gave a shout, and then the Lian Hua Gang members all rushed into the battlefield on their flying boards. They left the Noxians to Li Ke and Vander; they could just bully the Piltover people.

Of course, Ekko remembered Li Ke's words: the Piltover people are not mortal enemies, their fate depends on luck. This sounded like Li Ke didn't care about the lives of the Piltover people, but in reality, Ekko understood that his Boss meant to hold back as much as possible and not really kill all the Piltover people.

In the future, Piltover will have to support Zaun. If Piltover residents are wiped out, who will work for Zaun in the future?

It's you?

Silco's men arrived as well. Sevika led a group of people onto the bridge, and her lips twitched a few times as she looked at the one-sided situation.

She came here prepared to sacrifice herself, but what's going on here?

The one in front is the Boss, and then there's a bunch of Noxians in front of that.

Those people flitting about in that group, were they Vander and Li Ke?

Damn, how did that brat Li Ke manage to do that?!

Sevika gasped, but she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes. She raised her hand, her Alchemical Limb glowing in the night. The Shimmer light activated the Alchemical Limb, and she roared, "Attack!"

"Charge!"

A group of gang members, armed with weapons, rushed out from around Sevika.

Then she started running too. The bridge on the Zaun side was already almost full of people, no, it was completely full of people.

Another group of people climbed up, covered in sweat and with flushed faces; these were residents of the Zaun community.

They stared in disbelief at the scene on the Progress Bridge.

On the bridge, the areas previously seized by Piltover and Noxus had been reclaimed. Screams echoed from the front lines, and blood spurted from claws. Meanwhile, Noxians were being thrown off the bridge and plunged into the deep sea under the cover of night.

In the air, the Lian Hua Gang members, riding on flying boards, continuously tightened their formation, compressing the Piltover's space under Ekko's command and surrounding them.

"Is this Zaun?"

"We're actually that strong!"

The Zaunite came to help, prepared to die, were dumbfounded.

"But it seems like we're not needed anymore."

"Then, what should we do?"

"Just watch the show, what else can we do?"

"What are you all looking at! Go see if there's anyone left who can be saved. Hurry, we have to go help!" Auntie Marna exclaimed.

At her command, these Zaunite immediately found a way to help: aiding the injured.

The "medical skills" of the people of Zaun are quite abnormal. Don't even mention losing a leg or an arm; even if you're missing an internal organ, the Zaunite can fix it and bring you back to life.

Therefore, besides those Zaunite bodies were pierced and who were already dead, there were also many Zaunite missing limbs and in a coma waiting for their rescue.

"How could this not be magic, yet it accomplished something that even magic might not be able to do?" Fear flashed in Ambessa's eyes. Beside her, the bearded soldier also looked on in horror at the wolf and man approaching from the front, gripping his spear tightly, and stood in front of Ambessa.

Seeing his actions, Ambessa snapped out of her daze and cried out, "No, retreat! Sound the horn, retreat!"

"This is not a guy we can beat!"

Having fought for Noxus for so many years, Ambessa had seen monsters before. The wolf-like creature was still within Ambessa understanding, but what about that black-haired youth?

How did he do that?!

Despite his frail appearance, he had killed more Noxus soldiers than that wolf-like monster!

These were all Ambessa's retainers, soldiers who had "betrayed" the country for her sake. How could Ambessa possibly stand by and watch them die!

"Retreat! Retreat!"

She screamed.

Beside them, a slicked-back-haired, impeccably dressed man screamed, "No, we can't retreat! If you retreat, what will I do!"

"You promised me that after winning this victory, you would make me the most powerful senator, and you said you would give me control of these two cities. You can't go back on your word!"

"You idiot! Open your dog eyes and look around! Is this the time to be discussing this?!" Ambessa angrily grabbed Saro by the collar and slammed him to the ground. Saro slumped to the ground, utterly bewildered as to why Piltover had lost to Zaun.

And even with the addition of Noxus's forces, they still lost to Zaun?!

"Walk!"

Ambessa turned to look at the messenger on the platform who was blowing the horn, only to find him standing there blankly, head down, his body stiff as he faced Ambessa.

Ambessa's pupils contracted as she looked at the dark-haired man beside the messenger.

He put his hand on the messenger's shoulder, affectionately put his arm around the messenger, and looked at him with a smile. When he realized that the messenger had noticed him, the man raised his eyebrows, as if to say, "You finally noticed me."

"Go? Where are you going, Ambessa Medarda?"

"You"

Before Ambessa could finish speaking, the bearded soldier swiftly raised his gun and thrust it at Li Ke, his weapon aimed at Li Ke's throat.

"Miscellaneous fish."

Li Ke leaped lightly, stepping on the spear, tapped his toes, stretched out his left hand, pressed down on the guy's head, and then slammed it hard into the ground.

"Roll!"

"Puff--"

Like a watermelon exploding, the headless corpse lay on the ground, Ambessa's eyes instantly turned red upon seeing it.

Beside him, Saro's face was also smeared with a mixture of white and red, and he let out a pitiful scream.

Li Ke clapped his hands, somewhat disgusted by the mixture on his hands, but Li Ke didn't feel nauseous.

After all, he had died once in the world of Soul Blossom. Friends who die often know that it is a rare sight to see your headless corpse fall down. Therefore, Li Ke's adaptability was already at its peak.

Turning his head, Li Ke looked at the screaming Saro. Seeing his exquisite clothes and his thin, monkey-like appearance, Li Ke immediately laughed.

"Oh, are you Senator Saro from Piltover?"

"No, don't come any closer!" Saro crawled backward, screaming.

"Don't run away! I just happened to be talking to a congressman."

Li Ke stepped forward, grabbed Saro's foot, and then lifted Saro upside down.

"What are you thinking? I didn't attack you, but instead you attacked us?"

Li Ke lifted Saro up, looked down at his face, and continued in a deep voice, "Was this the councilors' idea?"

"No, no, it's all her, it's her!" Saro said, pointing at Ambessa.

Meanwhile, Ambessa launched an attack on Li Ke, her giant blade hurtling towards him.

Li Ke tilted his head back, easily dodging the giant blade that slashed across his head, then Nunu and smiled at Ambessa, "Don't worry, he's coming."

Ambessa was taken aback by his words. A howling wind swept around her, and the light dimmed. She turned to look to the side, and then...

"Roar!"

Vander stood before her, his tall frame blocking out the light. He raised his hand and with a powerful swipe, sent Ambessa flying.

"This person looks like... a member of parliament?" Vander also noticed Saro.

"Hmm, Senator Saro, a senator, what a rare sight! Vander, this is the first time I've ever seen a live senator. Come on, take a good look." Li Ke grabbed Saro and then threw him at Vander's feet.

Vander lowered his head, looking at Saro, a terrifying smile spreading across his monstrous face, "Zaun sends its greetings, Councilor Saro."

Saro looked at Vander with trembling hands, then crawled toward Li Ke.

Li Ke is terrifying. But this weirdo is even more terrifying!

He may not have great wisdom, but he is at least clever. Seeing that Li Ke did not kill him directly, he knew that Li Ke needed him to do something.

Seeing this, he crawled to Li Ke's feet, looked up at Li Ke, and stammered, "I, I, I..."

"Speak clearly!" Li Ke frowned, bent down, and slapped Saro across the face.

"This was all Ambessa's conspiracy. She instigated me. I didn't want to do this either. She... she bound us together with mutual benefits, which is why we attacked Zaun."

"Saro said quickly."

Upon hearing this, Li Ke ignored Saro and instead glanced at the battlefield.

Vander and his two inhuman monsters ravaged the battlefield, and the spirit of the Noxians crumbled the moment Ambessa shouted for retreat.

The most resilient force in Valoran is not the Noxus army, not even Valoran Noxus elite force of Trifarian. The most elite force on this continent is the Demacia Dauntless Vanguard.

But even they, as humans, experience fear and helplessness. So it's not surprising that Ambessa's army's morale collapsed. If they were all broken, then the Piltover Enforcers were even more likely to be.

This group of guys is all bark and no bite.

The Zaunite have completely overwhelmed Noxus and Piltover. Ekko even surrounded the law enforcement officers and beat them like dogs, constantly slapping the Piltover residents with sticks.

But some Piltover residents still resisted out of fear, and seeing this, Li Ke frowned.

He bent down, looked at Saro, and said in a deep voice, "Do you want to live?"

"Think!"

"Three things, and I'll let you live." Li Ke said with a gentle smile. If it weren't for the bloodstains on his face, Saro would have thought the smile was quite handsome.

But now, seeing Li Ke grinning at him with his face covered in blood, all he felt was fear.

Nodding vigorously, Saro wisely said, "Please speak!"

"The first thing is to make the law enforcement officer surrender."

"No problem!"

"The second thing is to take me to the Piltover Parliament Building."

Saro's face instantly turned ashen, and he looked at Li Ke with fear. "You've won. We've lost."

Saro instantly understood what Li Ke meant and became terrified.

Piltover has already lost. This wealthy city-state was protected by only a few hundred law enforcers, and now, those enforcers are all on the bridge, captured after surrendering. Piltover has lost its defensive capabilities. Now, the Zaunite have led a force into Piltover, even going to the Council Building. What kind of situation will Piltover, with its wealth but no power, face?

No. No!

Saro doesn't want collaborators!

"Stop talking nonsense. You think losing the war you started means the matter is settled?"

"When this war ends is not up to you, it's up to me, understand?" Li Ke patted Saro's face.

Vander looked to the side, his eyes filled with fear.

What did he see?

Why is Jinx firing a machine gun at the Piltover Enforcers?!

How many law enforcement officers has she killed so far?

No, is this really Jinx?!

Watching Boom, who was laughing heartily and Jinx a machine gun under Vi's protection, Vander's big face was filled with panic.

Then, he turned his head away and pretended not to have seen anything.

"That wasn't Jinx, I must have misread it."

"Wei has changed, she's become very rebellious, I can't control her, but Jinx can't change. How could my little darling be like this?"

Yes, that's right.

"Hilko!" Vander gritted his teeth and uttered each word of Silco's name.

Looking at Li Ke's ambiguous smile, Saro swallowed hard and nodded with difficulty.

"The third thing, Your Excellency, is that I'm desperately short of money, desperately short, do you understand what I mean?"

"."

"Understood." Saro nodded.

"Great, it's a pleasure to work with you. Come on, the ground is cold, let me help you up." Li Ke immediately and eagerly helped Saro up, while Saro gave a stiff smile.

The central area of Piltover in the early morning.

The cooperation with the Noxians is nothing special, and therefore, the Piltover people are unaware of the law enforcement's attack on Zaun tonight. They are either asleep or working late into the night, reading, or researching and designing things.

The quiet Piltover is peaceful and warm.

The clean streets are brightly lit, and many of the tall buildings are also brightly lit.

Until a soft cough broke the silence.

The sound from the loudspeaker echoed throughout Piltover, the volume turned up exceptionally high.

"Hello?"

Can you hear me?

"I can hear you!" a slightly hoarse, pleasant female voice rang out, calling out "Waaah!" from the side.

Then came that pleasant, gentle male voice.

"Good evening, everyone in Piltover,"

"Here it is"

"Zaun, Li Ke!"
