Li Cheng shrugged when he saw Tiavanas’s expression. He smiled and said, “Since I’m the one who lured them here, I can handle it myself. Isn’t it just a few million Dark Elves?”
After saying that, Li Cheng winked at Lillian. Lillian nodded and a faint gray mist appeared around them in an instant.
At this moment, Luna said, “Lord, I’ll join the battle, too.”
Hearing this, Li Cheng hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. “Don’t force yourself.”
No matter what, Luna was still a Dark Elf, and she had a kind heart. If he asked her to slaughter her own kind, Li Cheng was afraid that her spirit would collapse.
Luna smiled and shook her head. “They should be from the Black Agate City. Many of my sisters died at the hands of these elves.”
Hearing Luna’s words, Li Cheng was stunned at first. Was there such a thing?
It seemed that had not cared enough about Luna. He thought to himself that he should try to get to know Luna more.
Since they were enemies, Li Cheng did not have to stop them. He said, “Well, let’s end this quickly.”
After receiving Li Cheng’s order, Luna smiled and followed Lillian out with her troops.
…
In less than five minutes, all sorts of killing notifications appeared in Li Cheng’s ears. Soon, the two heroines returned.
Lillian’s expression was very calm. Such a battle did not give her any pressure at all. “Lord, it’s settled.”
Hearing Lillian’s report, Tiavanas’s eyelids twitched again. It was all done just like that? Was this not a little too fast?
That was an army of several million soldiers. They had all been killed just like that?
Tiavanas had led an elite army before. However, it was impossible for her to kill an army of several million soldiers so quickly. Thus, she turned her questioning gaze toward Li Cheng.
Li Cheng was too lazy to explain much. He clapped his hands in satisfaction. Since the matters here had been resolved, there was no need for him to stay any longer. He waved his hand and said, “Let’s set off and return to the territory.”
…
Half an hour later, Li Cheng appeared in his territory once again. At this time, Sylvia had already returned. Following that, Li Cheng opened the Shadow Passage and entered the Shadow World.
After another hour, he reappeared in the armory. The first thing he saw when he entered was Ella’s petite figure.
At this moment, she was sitting on a chair in the control center. Her arms were wrapped around her slender knees, and her head was buried deep in it. From the looks of it, Ella seemed to be very depressed at the moment.
Li Cheng felt it was strange, so he went forward to ask, “Goddess Ella, you can’t still be sad, right?”
Ella looked up at Li Cheng and asked with a somewhat desolate expression, “Why did you come back?”
Li Cheng replied matter-of-factly, “To produce things. You have to remember that these things are mine.”
After saying that, Li Cheng handed all the things in his backpack to the AI and started a series of operations.
At the same time, the system’s voice rang in Li Cheng’s ears.
“Ding, dong, production line one is in operation. It’s currently producing the Laser Generator!
“Ding, dong, production line two is in operation. It’s currently producing the Mythical-grade Profound armor!
“Ding, dong, production line three is in operation. It’s currently producing…
“Ding, dong…”
The entire armory was instantly filled with a rumbling sound. A few production lines that had been out of operation for thousands of years were once again in operation.
Seeing Li Cheng’s series of operations, Ella raised her head to take a look. Then, she buried her little head deep into her knees again, not showing any interest.
Seeing this, Li Cheng frowned slightly. If it was the usual Ella, she would have flown into a rage when she saw his actions. He was afraid that she would jump up and hit her knees.
However, such a sorrowful Ella made Li Cheng feel a trace of heartache. Although they were not very close, they could still be considered friends.
Out of concern for his friend, Li Cheng asked seriously, “Ella, what happened?”
Ella bit her lip and said in pain, “My believers…died…”
Li Cheng quickly comforted her, “Isn’t this a very normal thing? Believers are just ordinary people. It’s not like all of them can become petitioners.”
When they were alive, pious and outstanding believers would be brought by the oracles to their respective divine kingdoms to be reborn and gain eternity in the divine kingdom. This was what petitioners were for. Of course, such people were only in the minority.
Ella did not answer Li Cheng. Instead, she said with even more pain, “One-third of them died.”
Hearing this, Li Cheng felt that something was wrong. This was not normal, so he frowned and asked, “Tell me, what exactly happened?”
Ella sighed lightly before she slowly said, “My believers… You, too, know that they’re mainly concentrated in the Kingdom of Kent, led by Princess Lina. Right now, a civil war’s happening in the Kingdom of Kent. My believers have become the first target for them to snatch…”
Hearing this, Li Cheng nodded in understanding. Not mentioning believers, even petitioners would choose to become petitioners of other Gods after the death of their own God. It was normal for them to rebel.
However, Ella was his friend after all. How could he watch his friend get into trouble and not do anything?
This was not Li Cheng’s style. He sighed and asked, “How long can you last?”
Ella thought for a moment and replied, “A month.”
Hearing Ella’s words, Li Cheng was also shocked. Was the situation already so critical?
In his previous life, Ella’s death was at least a few years away. Could it be that his arrival had caused a butterfly effect?
Thinking about this now was not useful. Li Cheng pondered for a moment and said, “I promised you that I’d help you solve the Kingdom of Kent’s matter. This promise is still valid.”
Hearing this, Ella did not seem to have any expectations. She only said in a low voice, “Thank you.”
Seeing this, Li Cheng just shook his head. She did not believe that he had any solutions, so she simply ignored him.
This goddess’s personality was really fickle. One moment, she was like a brainless fool, and in the next, she was like a severely depressed patient. She was terrifyingly quiet.
However, seeing that the situation was so critical and Ella was one of his few friends, Li Cheng’s eyes were flashing with a dangerous glint.
It seemed that he had to get involved with the Kingdom of Kent as soon as possible.. Otherwise, this joker Goddess would really fall. This was not what he wanted to see!
