Chapter 127 The Sacrifice of the Pure White Princess
I am not interested in your soul. If I am really interested in you, I am only interested in your skin.
Li Ke couldn't help but curse in his heart, because Gianna Kang's passionate words did not move him at all.
If it could really prevent Arthas from falling, or prevent Lordaeron from being destroyed, Li Ke would be willing to do it.
But the problem is, that's impossible.
Unless you directly and completely surrender to the Holy Light or evil energy, let the Holy Light illuminate the entire land, or let Sargeras directly win.
Otherwise, it will be the same, and the Burning Legion will only use other methods to select another Lich King instead of giving up the plan directly.
To a certain extent, it is a good thing that Arthas became the Lich King, because if history goes according to Li Ke's memory, this trouble will be solved by Tirion.
But Li Ke's act of sacrificing himself will only lead to more terrible extinction.
The Holy Light will mold this world and make 90% of the people die. Needless to say, the evil power will be great for me, but not necessarily for others.
So, if the people of Azeroth are still alive, don't they have to thank me?
For a moment, this thought flashed through Li Ke's mind.
"I am a knight of Lordaeron, Jaina. I cannot disobey my king and lord."
Li Ke said that he did not want to get involved in this matter. Someone would definitely be punished for things in the territory. This was to reduce public anger. Even if Arthas wouldn't do it, Tenaris would do it.
This is inevitable. Although it is not a big problem in the eyes of the nobles, it is different when it is brought to the surface. There will be a medium-sized punishment or something.
He just took advantage of this punishment to trick Jennifer into going to Stormwind City with him.
As for Arthas and Jaina.
He actually didn't care much from the beginning.
When he thought of this, he suddenly had an enlightenment.
"So... was it because of this reason that I failed to hide my emotions and was discovered by Alsace?"
But Jaina didn't think so. What she saw were the deaths and sacrifices of countless people. She had to make choices and actions. She couldn't just ignore the deaths of so many people!
She grabbed her staff, with a determined expression on her face. She waved her arms and took out what she could give. Because in the future she saw, if she wanted to fight against the Lich King, someone like Li Ke would
Paladins are essential!
Moreover, in the future she saw, there was no paladin like Li Ke! She felt that Li Ke might be the hope to solve all this by herself!
The only hope!
"Then become my knight! Protect my knight! I will appoint you as the Paladin of Kul Tiras! Let you lead an order of knights! Li Ke! You should feel it! Arthas does not trust you
, but I am different, I trust you, I can even trust you as much as I trust Alsace, if you become my guardian knight——"
But just as she was saying these words, Jennifer woke up.
The first thing she did when she woke up was scream, then she raised her head, looking for traces of Li Ke.
There was no reason at all in her eyes, only panic and confusion. In the future she saw, she did not meet Li Ke, so her face did not recover, nor did she have her current identity or status.
.
She was constantly humiliated by a group of people in the name of witches and monsters. Even tramps came to try on her, but they were scared away by her ferocious appearance.
And because there was no Li Ke, her injuries were extremely serious, to the point where even those who could summon undead monsters didn't care. They——
They let the undead eat her! Then they tortured her soul and took pleasure in it!
And she could only bear this pain day after day, alone in the darkness, loneliness, and endless cold, and then...
Then I watched my soul dissipate bit by bit with the torture, bit by bit, becoming unable to perceive anything in this world.
"Li Ke...my Li Ke...you are here, right? I am still alive, right? You are here, right? Li Ke?"
Jennifer threw herself into Li Ke's arms. While interrupting Gianna's remaining words, she kept stroking Li Ke's face with her hands, stroking the face that fascinated her, the one that did not appear in what she saw.
, the face in the future that has been experienced.
She couldn't believe that Li Ke really existed, nor could she believe that she had escaped from Medivh's illusion. She thought she was in the illusion, and as soon as she woke up, she would find that she was still being tortured.
The so-called Li Ke was just a fantasy when she was dying.
so.
She needs more confirmation that can increase her sense of reality.
She kissed and hugged Li Ke crazily, and even pushed Li Ke against the wall. Jaina looked at this scene in a daze. For a moment, she wondered if she was the same person when she and Arthas met for the first time.
It's really crazy, after all, I love her so much.
But she immediately realized what she had done.
He is taking away Jennifer's guardian knight, this guardian knight that only belongs to the other party.
"I……"
She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
But this was the best she could come up with.
Her guardian knight was originally only Arthas, because they were bound to be a couple, but Jaina also knew one thing very well.
Once she killed Kel'Thuzad in front of Arthas, the relationship between the two of them would inevitably have a scar that would never heal.
Moreover, this is interfering in the internal affairs of Lordaeron.
Especially when Li Ke intervened as a Paladin of Kul Tiras and killed Kel'Thuzad, Arthas could have killed Li Ke for violating alliance laws.
She really wanted to say that Arthas could remain calm when he was angry, but after seeing everything that Arthas did in the prophecy, she was not sure about this...
Even if she kept telling herself that the prophecy was uncertain, there was nothing she could do.
Because she had thought about it, that was indeed what Alsace would do.
But what if? What if? Only her identity as a guardian knight can save Li Ke from being convicted by the laws of Lordaeron.
Because the identity of a guardian knight is the most intimate identity, generally male and female guardian knights will become husband and wife, and if they are male, they will become brothers.
She still loves Alsace and wants to make Alsace her only guardian knight, but she needs Li Ke's power.
Although she longed for Li Ke's help, she would never let Li Ke fall into such unnecessary danger.
Therefore, letting Li Ke be her guardian knight is the only choice.
But looking at Jennifer who was kissing Li Ke so crazily that Li Ke couldn't break free, looking at her sad eyes and tone, and looking at her frantic grasping at the last straw, Gianna still hesitated.
What is she doing? Taking away a poor woman's only support?
Maybe Medivh was wrong? Or was this all a carefully crafted lie?
All kinds of complicated thoughts flashed in her mind.
Finally, she came up with a solution.
"...Frostmourne."
She will verify whether this is true, and if it is true...
"I'm sorry, father, I'm going to be willful... I hope you won't be too sad after learning that I turned into a monster and was killed by Alsace..."
