Duke spoke first: "I have proved myself, now it's your turn to prove yourself." After that, Duke threw the King's Guardian to Windsor.
"Its name is King's Guardian," Duke said with a pun.
Windsor shuddered all over, stood at attention, held the sword upside down in his left hand, and punched his chest with his right fist: "Reginald Windsor swears on his life that he will live up to your trust."
Lothar frowned: "Duke, is there anything I need to know?"
Duke didn't want to say it at first, but when he met Lothar's sincere and frank eyes, he still spoke: "Didn't you notice who we are missing?"
"Garona!?" Lothar was suddenly speechless.
In fact, Lothar had already discovered that Garona was missing. It should be said that Garona had disappeared when Medivh caused the explosion. But Medivh told Lothar before his death that he had also used magic to protect Garona.
This gave Lothar a bad feeling.
Medivh himself had no memory of Sargeras dealing with Garona, and he didn't know what Sargeras had done to Garona.
Duke's reminder now made Lothar extremely vigilant.
"Are you saying that Garona is a traitor assassin?"
"I have no evidence. I just suspect that Garona is very likely another Medivh. Remember, in a war, unless you have the ability to change the entire battle situation by yourself like Medivh, your personal power will be infinitely weakened. But at such times, the importance of the leader becomes greater!"
leader?
Who else!?
Duke clearly refers to King Llane.
In Lothar's heart, even if he died, there were still young people like Bolvar and Duke to take his place.
You have to know that Llane is the real pillar in the hearts of the people of Stormwind. However, Llane got married quite late because he was rebellious when he was young. Llane has no brothers or sisters, and his only heir is Prince Varian Wrynn, who is less than ten years old.
As long as Llane dies, Stormwind Kingdom will definitely collapse.
Lothar bit his lip hard.
Medivh's death was already a permanent pain in his heart. Now here comes Garona? Although Lothar had a good impression of this straightforward and innocent half-orc woman, it was at most the level of an ordinary friend.
At this moment, Lothar almost had the idea of killing Garona without any reason as soon as he saw her.
Duke put one hand on Lothar's shoulder, his eyes sparkling: "Lothar, don't forget your knight's oath. Besides, I have no evidence. But don't worry, I have prepared a backup plan. His Majesty Llane may die one day, but he will never die at the hands of Garona. I swear!"
Thinking of his knight's oath, Lothar was furious.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on her. I swear I won't kill a kind woman in vain. But I also swore to protect my king!"
Duke smiled and said, "That's enough."
Duke sighed in his heart: Aegwynn's son had just died, she definitely wouldn't want to kill her grandson. Just as "history" said, Garona, who was corrupted by Sargeras and Medivh, should be pregnant with Medivh's child now.
It's really hard to kill Garona, and it's also hard not to kill her. She's like a ticking time bomb.
Lothar gave Duke a hug and said, "Come back when you are done. The future of Stormwind depends on young people like you."
Looking at Lothar with gray hair on his temples, Duke felt speechlessly moved.
If Medivh's father Elan and Lothar had not fought to the death to block Sargeras's curse before his death, and if Medivh had not taken action in advance, perhaps Khadgar's fate in history would have been the same as Duke's.
His hair is completely white, he looks old, and his face is full of wrinkles.
This is terrifying just thinking about it.
What's worse is that this is a curse on both life and soul, and it cannot be removed. Even if Khadgar went to the Draenei city of Shattrath to learn the Holy Light and practice in seclusion, and became a great mage after he came out, he still couldn't get rid of this curse.
In comparison, I have only jumped from a teenager of fourteen or fifteen years old to a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old. This is already a blessing in disguise, the best of the best.
After sending off Lothar, Windsor and the others, as well as Aegwynn who was holding Medivh's body, Duke suddenly realized that he was the only living person left in Karazhan.
Uh, it feels a bit scary.
But there was no turning back. Duke could feel that part of his soul had begun to merge with the entire Karazhan.
Of course, when Medivh handed him the inheritance, Duke still played a little trick. He used the system AI to simulate a soul shell and let Medivh imprint the inheritance on this shell. In case something really happened, not only could this shell help him filter to a certain extent, but if he really couldn't handle it, Duke could die once and throw away all of Medivh's inheritance as if he was throwing away his moral integrity.
Looking at the empty workshop, Duke breathed a sigh of relief. He could finally calm down and quietly count his gains.
First of all, it is about the soul.
"Soul power 385, humanity 230%. Since the host's own humanity is capped at 100%, it will operate at 100% under normal circumstances. Under special circumstances, the host will perform saintly actions."
Seeing this, Duke bared his teeth.
Well, moral integrity can be inherited, and I have accepted my fate in this world where one can lose moral integrity and pick it up again.
The second is the inheritance of magic.
"You learned about the advancement of the archmage from Medivh's soul seed. The archmage uses himself as a radiation source to greatly change the types and flow of elements in a wide area of space, thereby greatly increasing the absorption and release of his own magic power and suppressing the enemy."
"You need to learn and master the following knowledge: Wide-area Space Element Theory, Element Repulsion and Element Affinity, Wide-area Space Element Cycle Experiment Guide... a total of 37 pieces of knowledge."
"Until you successfully reach the pinnacle of archmage, all knowledge related to to this stage will be sealed."
Duke's face was embarrassed. He didn't expect that he was a college student before traveling through time, but he would become a research student after traveling through time.
Finally, there is Karazhan.
"You are in the process of forming a soul bond with the demigod wizard Takarajan. You cannot leave Karazhan in any form until you have complete control of Karazhan. You need to reprogram or rewrite the entire Karazhan defense system and monitoring system. And because Medivh passed away in such a hurry, the seals of many dangerous areas have not been fully completed."
"Please deal with it quickly after learning 108 subjects including Introduction to Space, Modeling of Space Channel Construction, and 100 Questions on Dealing with Space Cracks."
At this moment, Duke's face turned blue.
