At least, that's how they think.
Gazing at the abyss leading to a deeper layer beside the ice cap, Tyrant Mecha and other mass-produced combat mechas continued to launch a crushing attack on the void monsters pouring out from it.
Li Lin flew out of Tyrant God and landed on the ground, his body wrapped in five intertwined and flowing colors: yellow, red, blue, green and azure.
By mobilizing the power of five world runes, his will was able to withstand the whispers and temptation corrosion from the runes in his ears, but his body was actually unable to withstand such a powerful force.
Even though he is currently at the fourth stage of genetic enhancement, few things can hurt him.
In order to be able to use the world rune to resist the void, the first thing Li Lin did was to use this great power that was enough to create a world to reshape his body.
Now, he is almost of the same origin as the World Rune.
Aatrox noticed his change and his gaze into the abyss, and immediately shrank in size, flapping his wings and flying to his side.
"Li Lin..."
Although he knew that Li Lin's will could not be moved by the World Rune and he had used the Resolve World Rune himself in Shadow Isles, Aatrox was still worried about him.
This is the power of five nearly complete world runes. Even the gods may not be able to withstand it. He is just a mortal. Even if his strength far exceeds the human level, it is still very dangerous to control such power.
Fortunately, it turned out that Aatrox's worries were unnecessary.
"The Star Child told me that I must make a choice."
Li Lin stared at the abyss without moving his eyes, as if he was passing through the chaotic curtain where nothingness and matter intersected, and looking at the thousands of void watchers on the other side who were ready to step into reality.
He was staring into the abyss, and the abyss was staring back at him.
Aatrox understood the meaning behind Li Lin's words and immediately said nervously, "We've already won. You don't need to do this!"
"No, Aatrox, simply sending the Void back to another dimension is not a victory at all. They still have their eyes on this world.
"If we don't completely eliminate these guys, one day in the future of Runeterra, when they have acquired more of our knowledge and produced more targeted mutations, they will return again.
"Maybe ten years, maybe dozens, maybe hundreds of years."
Li Lin retracted his gaze and looked up, meeting Aatrox, who was more than five meters tall beside him.
"The existence of the Watchers is a ticking time bomb. We must completely eliminate them so that we can have a better tomorrow."
"But……"
Aatrox clenched his fists, swung his sword casually to kill a fish that had escaped the net, and exhaled heavily.
"You are the hope of mankind, the Keeper of Runeterra. If we can repel the Void once, we can repel them countless times.
"The Watchers may be preparing to devour this world. Aren't we also preparing to resist them? You don't need to sacrifice yourself..."
Hearing this, Li Lin smiled helplessly, "Who said I want to sacrifice myself?"
"Hmm?" Aatrox was stunned. "Didn't you say Soraka told you that you had to make a choice..."
"Choice...yes, choice."
Li Lin looked up at the dark sky covered by the gloomy clouds of war. His eyes, amplified by the power of runes, looked directly at the universe and he couldn't help laughing.
"Choice does not mean sacrifice."
