"Well, my head hurts."
Mai Zhuo covered her forehead and cried out in pain. She had just had a very long dream. In the dream, she was no longer the powerful Eight Elites, but a guardian who constantly maintained the balance of the earth. Fight for the good of the whole world.
However, the specific responsibilities are similar to those of the Eight Heroes Collection. They all make decisions when a certain creature seriously affects other lives. But unlike the big snake that directly regards humans as a threat, when you judge whether intelligent creatures should survive in the dream, you usually judge whether the other party has touching friendship, contribution to the world, and influence on your own behavior. in reflection and action.
Races that threaten the security of the world can also survive. As long as they are willing to reflect, pay the price for their actions, and give their own strength and lives for their world, then they have the value of survival, rather than no meaning of survival. This This is what she experienced in her dream.
In her dream, she personally judged many races and creatures. Some of them were nobler than humans, some were lower than humans, and some were similar to humans, but the only thing they had in common was...
She had never seen it before.
She had never seen those guys with long ears and lifespans of thousands of years. Rather, they were very similar to the elves in animated movies that she had seen recently.
This is very interesting. She discovered some very interesting secrets, but she was not sure whether what she thought was correct, because she was no longer the Eight Elites who could ignore death unscrupulously, but was in the hands of the other party. A chess piece, a dragonborn.
Yes, she got the news from her body almost instinctively. Her body is now filled with the power of the dragon. If she was a subordinate of the big snake before, then she is a subordinate of a dragon now.
The dragon power in her body was extremely powerful. She felt that her power was much stronger than when she was a member of the Eight Masters, and she also gained the power of the earth that was previously held by the Seven Flails Society, which was only the four heavenly kings.
She could feel that as long as her limbs were in contact with the earth, her physical strength and injuries would recover at a very fast speed.
Moreover, based on the previous strength, his physical strength is at least three times stronger. If he were to fight his former self now, it would not take many moves to defeat his past self.
Not only that, she should feel that there is a kind of power hidden in her body. As long as she can discover that power, she can show the true form of this power!
Or the true form of the dragonborn who gained the power of the dragon!
What a powerful and holy force this is!
However, just when she was sober and lamenting the power of Li Ke, a woman's laughter came to her ears. She turned her head in confusion and found a scene that made her freeze in place. .
Li Ke was holding two typical American girls making out there. The blond-haired woman was stuffed with green banknotes. It was obvious that Li Ke was quite generous.
And beside the three of them, there were several beautiful women sitting or lying down. Among them, there were obviously Eastern European women and Russian women, and judging from their age, they were about eighteen years old at most.
This is not a very unexpected thing in this era. The collapse of a certain empire and the miraculous operation of a certain Uzbek country directly brought the European entertainment industry to a peak. Although it is obvious that the peak was built on a lot of blood and tears, But people who can enjoy these will not care about this.
Mai Zhuo knew what was going on, because her former boss made a lot of money from this, and many international groups are now sucking the blood of the collapsed alliance. How could she not know about these girls? of origin.
But when she thought of the sacred mission passed to her in the other person's dream, and the dragons who sacrificed themselves for this mission, she felt helpless for a while.
Mai Zhuo poured himself a glass of whiskey from the drinks on the table. Mai Zhuo used it to quench his thirst, and then looked at Li Ke who turned around because he had woken up.
"You really taught me a good lesson. The power you gave me is so holy and extraordinary, but your own behavior is so wanton... uninhibited."
Are none of these big snakes normal?
This is what she wants to say most.
"Ah, well, because of my personal reasons, in my daily life I have to face a girl with a plump figure who just can't eat, so I've been under a lot of pressure recently."
Li Ke wasn't embarrassed, and he didn't really do anything. He just invited some cute ladies to watch a movie with him and enjoy the fun.
If you really want to do something, you won't involve Mai Zhuo. The relationship between the other party and him is more complicated now. Although he is already his own color, the other party who is soaked by his own power will no longer be the subordinate of Orochi, but from the strength of In terms of relationships, it's a bit more subtle.
Mai Zhuo has no problem calling himself dad now.
He let go of his hand and signaled the beauties who had been being yo-yoed by him to leave his side and go play with the luxury goods he bought. Mai Zhuo also naturally came to him with a wine glass, sat there very calmly, and crossed his legs.
After seeing those girls leave, Mai Zhuo took another sip of wine before speaking under Li Ke's gaze.
"Then, my master, for what purpose did you take me from my last master?"
"Get to know the enemy, and you look capable."
Mai Zhuo chuckled lightly and pulled her collar, exposing some of her vagina. She wanted to know what kind of attitude Li Ke had towards her.
"What kind of ability?"
After smiling, seeing that Li Ke didn't move, he put the wine back on the table, and then spoke seriously.
"Although I am yours, I won't say too much. After all, although the snake is very good at calling people, she is really good to me, and I will not betray my companions."
Li Ke shook his head. He didn't care whether Mai Zhuo said there were people on Orochi's side, he knew them all anyway. It was the same whether Mai Zhuo said it or not. If it could make his employees feel better, he didn't mind if they didn't tell him.
Anyway, there are only a few people in the Eight Elites, and the strongest Goenitz was defeated by him. Orochi can't come out. If he comes out, there are three artifact families waiting for him. He doesn't know how to lose.
What he cares more about is other things. If all the members of Dead or Alive who were just Mai Shiranui's guest appearances appear in this world, and the bosses that Hayabusa should fight are all mixed with Geese, then what is the world like? What doesn't he know?
Those secrets were naturally things that he, a person who had only been in the world for a few years, would not know, but to the Eight Masters, these things were no secret.
"Then tell me carefully about other things in this world."
Mai Zhuo was stunned for a moment. She really didn't expect Li Ke to be so easy to talk to, so it took her a long time to speak again.
"What do you want to know?"
"Everything, such as other forces in this world, major events that happened, etc."
Li Ke spread his hands and motioned to Mai Zhuo to be more casual.
"All right……"
Mai Zhuo was also happy and relaxed. She thought for a moment and then spoke.
The other party is worthy of being a member of the Eight Elites who have lived for thousands of years. Every time he speaks, he can tell what happened thousands of years ago. Many things are unheard of by Li Ke. For example, there was Princess Athena who had magical powers in the ancient world, as well as the Greek gods who were far away from this world, and some distant place beyond.
Li Ke could listen to the other party's words calmly at first, but the more he listened, the weirder his face became. Until he heard that there were signs of alien invasion in a war-torn country recently, and there was also a Metal Slug plan, and then After the evil plan was foiled by a team called 'Wu', his face became even weirder.
"This world is really chaotic..."
After Mai Zhuo's description, Li Ke finally had a clear understanding of the world, including an understanding from someone who had never played The King of Fighters.
There are several big snakes.
The Orochi we are most familiar with, who was defeated by the Three Artifact Team, is the strongest one, but he is not the only 'Orochi'. There are many existences like him in this world, in the far west, that is, in Europe. There is a "far beyond" second only to him, but the two sides don't have much communication, so Mai Zhuo doesn't know much about them.
But not only that, gods once existed on this earth. The myths and legends are not false, but those gods either left this world or were killed and sealed by some beings. In short, they basically do not appear in the human world anymore.
Li Ke was not very surprised at this, because the Tengu he captured was like this, with a world that belonged to their Tengu alone. Li Ke had also imagined whether it was Gensokyo or something like that.
But other news is very exciting, because Mai Zhuo personally admitted that there have been visitors to this world, and the will of the earth is still collectively inconsistent with the will of Mars, because people from Mars often come to the earth to cause trouble and want to conquer the earth. .
"Those guys who look like octopuses will cause a lot of trouble every time. In the era when humans were not able to solve these troubles, we basically had to solve them. But fortunately, humans can now solve this problem by themselves. ”
Mai Zhuo moistened her throat with wine again. In her opinion, these things were normal things. People in this world can understand things as long as they pay a little attention.
"So Asamiya Athena is really Athena...and there are really Martians in this world..."
Li Ke covered his face, feeling that things were really serious. Fortunately, my mission is not to deal with those guys, but to simply complete the plot of Mai Shiranui.
No, wait, there are still a lot of pitfalls, right?
Li Ke thought carefully about Ji Jisi being possessed by a demon, and couldn't help but ask. The more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. This world may not just be the disappearance of the three Terry brothers. There may be many key figures in this world. Disappeared.
"So do you have a list of famous fighters in this world? I am somewhat interested in them."
Whether something is right depends on the person. For example, the disappearance of the Terry brothers will cause such a thing. Then if there will be other abnormalities in this world, just look at whether other people in this world have disappeared!
Li Ke thought so, and Mai Zhuo had no objection to this matter. She was the kind of person who obeyed and did things as she was told, and this was pretty much the job she had done before.
After all, whether it is Lukar, who is used to making bronze statues of fighters, or Orochi, who hates humans very much and wants to be resurrected, they are all the type of strong men who care about humans very much, so for the list of these people, she has already discussed them with My colleague Weiss has been listed more than once.
But when she thought about this, she still felt a little melancholy. After all, colleagues who had been colleagues for thousands of years suddenly became enemies. To be honest, she was helpless.
But the energy in her body and the instinct to obey Li Ke prevented her from returning to her original camp. Li Ke's power was so overbearing that she basically couldn't leave him.
"I will become an enemy of Weiss from now on."
With a slight sigh, Mai Zhuo walked out of the room and was about to call Lukar. Since Li Ke would choose to save her life, it was probably for Lukar's line, so she had to maintain this line. existence, otherwise it will be regarded as useless.
She didn't want to end up trying to become useless, so she gained a lot of motivation.
It’s a joke to say that you no longer want to live after living for a long time. Human beings are creatures that want to live more and more as they live.
But when she went out to make a phone call, she noticed a figure that concerned her. The stench of monsters and witches were mixed together, and a woman who looked like she was a fighter walked menacingly in front of her. But after she took a closer look, she discovered that it was her current master's nominal fiancée, the woman named Mai Shiranui.
But the other party obviously didn't know that Li Ke was in the tavern, because the woman was leading the two women there towards another room and looked very angry.
"Things are getting interesting."
Subconsciously licking his lips, Mai Zhuo did not remind himself that his new boss meant that no matter what, he was a subordinate who was subdued by cruel means. It was just a matter of being able to do things. It was impossible to expect her to act for Li Ke sincerely.
Soon, Lukar also received a call from Mai Zhuo. After the two parties made some transactions, Mai Zhuo successfully got what Li Ke wanted, but accordingly, Lukar also got Li Ke and Jisi. information, as well as further news about the power of the serpent that he coveted.
"...Is this so? So you betrayed your master? And found yourself a new master?"
Lukar held the wine glass with a happy expression on his face. He hated these two women who were obviously sent by Konitz to target him. The reason why he did not use the blood given by Konitz rashly was to let the research institute study the blood given by the other party. It was also because of this, and it was precisely because of certain results, that he recently used the blood containing the power of the serpent.
"Don't say it so harshly. If I have a choice, I don't want to find a pervert to be my master."
Mai Zhuo's face turned ugly. Although Li Ke's dissolute behavior could not be called wrong, considering his identity as a 'big snake', it was really worth a loss.
However, she had already determined that there was something wrong with Orochi's brain, so it was enough to satisfy her that Orochi only liked beauty and did not want to change the world.
"Then do you want me to say hello to Weiss on your behalf?"
The pleasure on Lucal's face grew as he flexed his muscles and asked before Metro could respond.
"Is that person named Shiranui Ke strong?"
Mai Zhuo immediately shut her mouth. She really didn't know what to say to this person who longed to defeat the strong from the bottom of her heart. Should she praise the other person's arrogance or praise the other person's stupidity?
"For the sake of the past, I would like to remind you that Goenitz was killed by him, and it only took a few moves to defeat you."
Lukar narrowed his one eye. He didn't want to mention the fact that he was defeated by Goenitz. It was precisely because of this that he was crazy about chasing power, so he took out a cigar.
"so?"
"If you don't want to die, don't provoke my new master. He is not a human, nor is he the fighter you want to defeat. The weapons he used to defeat Gith and me were not anything else, but those human weapons! You and If we confront him, the most likely outcome is that he will directly use his gun to make a hole in his head!"
After speaking, Mai Zhuo hung up the phone because she no longer wanted to talk to this stupid guy, while Lukar was stunned.
A ridiculous feeling came over him. A man who could easily defeat Goenitz would use thermal weapons to fight against the enemy?
It's not that he looks down on thermal weapons. As one of the world's largest arms dealers, he still has considerable respect for weapons made by humans. But the problem is that the power of these weapons is really nothing in the eyes of fighters.
Just talking about him, unless a mechanized force composed of thousands of soldiers besieged him, or used missiles to bomb his place indiscriminately, or bombed hundreds of naval guns, then for a fighter like him In general, no matter what kind of thermal weapon it is, it is just a toy.
Strong Qi allows fighters to block critical bullets, and their agility allows them to easily avoid the path of bullets. The best ones can even catch incoming bullets with their bare hands.
But this does not mean that thermal weapons are not powerful. No fighter, including himself, can resist too many bullets with his body. It is just that most thermal weapons cannot hit them. But it is precisely because of his understanding of the power of thermal weapons and the power of modern weapons that he is so obsessed with the path of fighting.
The feeling that a human body transcends conventional thermal weapons, and that even thousands of similar weapons cannot defeat him is one of the reasons why he is so addicted to fighting.
But now, a man who can use his own skills and strength to defeat Goenitz, a man who is like a mountain in front of him, actually likes to use hot weapons?
It was as if Muhammad Ali was fencing with a straw as his sword, which made him feel sincerely disdainful and ridiculous.
"Don't you want me to go?"
Thinking of Mai Zhuo's reminder, Lukar's one eye flashed red, and following his deep voice, a beautiful figure also appeared in his room.
"Then are you willing to go? Help me test out the new...'Orochi'."
Light shone in from outside the window, illuminating the face of the beautiful figure. What was surprising was that this person was not someone else, but a person who should be a mortal enemy of the Orochi clan.
