Although it was easy to come to this conclusion, Li Ke wanted to know what Nola's motive was. Their interests were now aligned on the surface. He needed them to work for him and find talents that he could use. On the other hand, he wanted to ensure their wealth and status and use their strength to establish his own power in Noxus.
So, under such circumstances, why would a Noxus noble who had a bit of conscience but was still willing to betray everything for benefits and indulge in pleasure, let herself go up against an ancient overlord with unknown trump cards, unknown strength, and only known to be terrifying?
She couldn't possibly want him to die. Doing so would only cause great harm to her in the current situation. The Emperor and the nobles would not let her and the people around her off.
She also wouldn't want him to be in a stalemate with Mord Kaiser. This would only make the Emperor of Noxus lose his patience with them and they would end up in a miserable state.
In other words, she wanted him to kill Mord Kaiser in a crushing manner. Only then would it be in line with her interests on the surface. But in fact, such an approach was meaningless to her identity. She also had no reason to dissuade him from going to Noxus to confront Mord Kaiser. Instead, it was more important for him to go to Noxus as soon as possible and not to remind him to go to Birgivot again and again.
The impression Nola gave him was as if she knew how to clone herself …
Impression? Clone?
Li Ke suddenly recalled that he could always see Nora in all sorts of inconceivable places and times. Most of the time, her words and actions showed her understanding and desire for him. However, there was always a strange feeling. Although the joyful expression on her face came from the bottom of her heart, that lofty attitude of hers had never disappeared. Although all nobles were like this, Li Ke felt that her arrogance was not just the arrogance of nobles, but the arrogance of looking at others as monkeys.
Although Nora had hidden it very well, Li Ke was still able to detect it. This was an ability given to him by his superhuman senses and also his intuition.
"Is this also your master's mission? Or is this your own will? "
Li Ke turned to look at Nora, who was still acting, and asked straightforwardly.
"You, or the person behind you, want me to face the mastermind behind all of this. But as far as I know, there should be someone called the Trickster Beauty among the people who would be so concerned about the mastermind behind all of this, right? You are her, or perhaps … she is your true master? "
Li Ke's question caused Lefran's heartbeat to quicken. She felt a sense of excitement that she hadn't felt in a long time. She had always thought that in this era, the one who could see through the fog and find traces of her real body would be the guy named Swain. After all, even with her experience, a chess piece as smart as Swain was rarely seen. Therefore, when Li Ke mentioned her title from a long time ago, the first thing that appeared in her heart was excitement, as well as the joy of a challenge.
She wanted to know if Li Ke would be able to find her if she became serious. She was also looking forward to Li Ke's disappointment and anger when he realized that he had discovered a fake identity after he thought that he had discovered her identity. Therefore, she only gave Li Ke a radiant smile and continued.
"I serve many masters. After all, they can give me benefits. If you are willing to help me obtain those benefits, I don't mind making you my only master. As for who I serve and what my purpose is, it isn't that important to a person like me, isn't it? Besides, since I have failed, I will give up. As an apology, how about I serve you with the methods that I have learned to serve men? You should know that back then, my family wanted me to be a social butterfly. So if you want, I can make you so comfortable that you'll even forget to breathe. "
She flicked her hair as she spoke, allowing the sailors and guards to leave the room on their own accord, taking away the pile of unknown bones on the ground. As for Li Ke, he shook his head and ignored the woman's blatant attempt to change the topic. After all, no matter what conspiracy they had, all he had to do was to crush them once he obtained the weapon. Whatever conspiracy they had, it would be useless even if they were plotting something. As for the problem of Soul-devouring Night, Orloy could handle it herself. She would mobilize her forces to resist Soul-devouring Night. If that didn't work, Sarah and the slowly recovering Jana would help them resist and retreat. After all, the Baru people had lived here for so long. It would be impossible for them not to have any ability to resist Shadow Island.
Moreover, as long as his plan went smoothly, he would be able to go to Shadow Island to remove the curse and cut off Mord Kaiser's claws in the modern world. Then, the Night of the Soul Devouring Night would naturally come to an end.
"It's up to you. But I like your personality, so you better not make me want to kill you."
After warning Nola, who he suspected to be Lefran, he looked at the pearl of the deep sea that had been washed clean by the sailors. He recalled the names of the two mermaids, or rather, the mermaids, that Jack met before he was alive. If there was one thing that interested Li Ke in Jack's life, it would be the truth of Soul-devouring Void, Rasha, who fought against Soul-devouring Void, and Nami, who might be the future Tide-Summoner Mermaid.
If even the people wandering on the sea could be bewitched by Soul-devouring Void, then the situation in the sea must not be any better. And Soul-devouring Void, who could make Rasha and the young Nami meet, must have already fought against Nami's Vastaya tribe. But Li Ke remembered very clearly that Nami and Soul-devouring Void did not meet when she was young, but when she became an adult and risked her life to go to the deepest abyss to obtain the pearl of the deep sea.
Moreover, that 'pearl' was also very problematic. In Nami's personal manga, this pearl was used to exchange moonstones with the Astral Soul of the Heavenly Realm. In other words, it was a material that protected them from the Void Creatures at the bottom of the sea. It was also the core of a Void Creature and could deter some Void Creatures.
And compared to the problem of Soul-devouring Void that Nami and Rasha's appearance represented, the problem of Mord Kaiser who wanted to rule the whole world was obviously not too important.
"It's really dangerous."
He sighed and continued to read books to enrich himself to ensure that he did not have any flaws. However, in another world, a man holding a hammer was observing him from afar with a magic tool, and couldn't help but let out a cold snort after he read a book.
"Is this the warrior of this generation? How disappointing … That witch only knows how to use some underhanded tricks. "
And in front of this person, Jack, who had just died in front of Li Ke, was kneeling at the feet of this man, using his own body as a stepping stone for this man, and from time to time, he had to endure the other party's merciless trampling. However, his face was calm and peaceful, as well as a happy expression.
This undoubtedly made this tyrant feel angry and despised, so he stomped the poor man's crazy soul into pieces, leaving only Jack's head.
But even so, Jack's face was still full of happiness, and he said his last words in this world.
"Truth …"
And the last thing he saw was a purple light.
