Chapter 19: War (1)
In a way, lies and war are exactly the same thing. Because there is an extremely obvious relationship between lies and wars, that is, whether it is a lie or a war, there are only two reasons why it can be launched, either to gain or not to lose. Because of this, lies and wars are just one thing in a certain way.
When Xiao Chao used his entire body to assassinate the Void Family, the war between Noxus and Demacia also broke out. Countless human beings have gone forward one after another, killing frantically on this battlefield, staining the ground red with their own blood and the so-called feats with their own lives. It is not an equivalent exchange for the superior to get the rights and benefits he needs, while the inferior can only get the honor and faith that are of no practical use, but there is no way to prevent this from happening. After all, no matter what era it is, there is a distinction between the strong and the weak, the strong dominate people, and the weak are dominated, it's that simple.
In fact, the human world is like a huge jungle, in which there is the law of the jungle and deceit, but the struggle between humans is different from that of wild beasts. In the era of peace, the war between human beings revolves around the net called the law formulated by the strong, and the opponent is pushed into it before he steps on the line, even if he has already won, but in the war era, he can only rely on the weapons in his hands and various ways of killing, and now, it is war.
Noxus and Demacia have a huge difference in their beliefs, and it is these differences that make the populations of Noxus and Demacia very different. Gone are the days when the orcs were the overlords. Humans who had been kept in captivity as slaves by orcs began to join Demacia and Noxus. It's just that these latecomers can't get the trust of the two countries from the beginning, after all, everyone is now fighting a national war, and who knows if there is an internal response sent in by the other party among these people.
Because of this, outside the walls of Noxus and Demacia. Slowly, small tribes were formed, which were nominally vassals of the two great powers, but in fact they were seeking the protection of the two great powers. Normally they don't need to fight, but when a nation is attacked, they are the first line of defense, and the best of each battle is brought in by both nations. This makes it possible for these tribes to fight when the country is attacked.
Noxus advocates force, and anyone who wants to make a career will choose to go to Noxus. Demacia, on the other hand, is peaceful and stable, and those who have no combat ability will choose to go to Demacia. After several years of development. There aren't many tribes outside of Noxus City, but they do have fighting power. There are many tribes outside of Demacia, but there are very few fighting power. And Noxus is belligerent and always takes the lead in provoking disputes and initiating battles. As a result, the tribes of Demacia were always under attack. It's ironic. Those who want to make a contribution in the battle will not be able to get war, but those who strive for peace and stability have been receiving the baptism of war.
In fact, to be honest, the battle between Noxus and Demacia is actually not interesting to listen to. Both Noxus and Demacia were relatively short-lived, with only one huge major city, but no other defenses. The two countries are constantly attacking each other. Although both sides have their own defensive lines, neither has a chance to build one.
Night falls. Beyond Demacia, however, is a flaming dragon of torches. Torches were planted in the ground, illuminating the night, and many of the warriors of the tribe were working hard to carry the stones and build a new line of defense. Although such a line of defense can be broken down at dawn, it can reduce the number of deaths. The warriors of these tribes were also very happy to build. But this time, in the darkness, there were countless figures slowly advancing.
These people were all dressed in black, and some were even naked, painted directly with black camouflage. With weapons in their mouths, they tried to crawl slowly towards the many tribes on the outskirts of Demacia without making a sound. The tribesmen who were building the defense line did not know that danger had crept in, and they continued to work hard. At intervals, an overseer-like figure would be in charge of the rest of the work. Suddenly, dozens of black shadows pounced out of the darkness, crushing the person who was building the defensive line under him, and the weapon in his hand pierced directly into the opponent's chest. The so-called capture of the thief first captures the king, and basically none of the overseers who stood in the brightest place ran away, and all of them were killed on the spot.
The scuffle broke out in an instant, and countless people emerged from the darkness and rushed into the tribes of Demacia, slaughtering them frantically. And the tribes of Demacia naturally did not sit still, and the melee broke out in an instant. I don't know how many people are fighting together in the dark, and the two sides are attacking each other. There is no formation, there is no combat routine, it is completely chaotic.
At the moment when the battle began, the night watchmen on the walls of Demacia had already noticed the change. The walls of Demacia were very high, and these soldiers were able to see many things that were not clear on the ground, but without exception, none of the many soldiers on the city walls chose to give warnings, but one by one they watched what was happening under the walls.
This is not the first time this kind of melee has appeared, the tribes that defected to Noxus are very warlike, but they can't get merit without defending the city, so as long as there are enough people, the tribes of Noxus will choose to attack the tribe of Demacia, and in the melee, they will cut off each other's ears to report their achievements on the spot. As long as fifty ears are collected and the body is still intact, it will be reviewed and entered into Noxus.
The battle took place under the walls of Demacia, and there was no guarantee that there would be no Noxians in the tribe, so in order to prevent the Noxians from mixing into the city, Demacia had to choose to watch from the walls. At first, the warriors on the walls will still have impulsiveness. Sometimes they would go down and help in the fighting, but the war had been going on for years, and it happened two or three times a month. Slowly, the warriors on the walls got used to this kind of fighting, and the sympathy and guilt disappeared without a trace, and all that remained became a joke to watch from the walls.
From the very beginning of the establishment of the two nations, the way the two nations fought was never above siege warfare. Whether it is Noxus or Demacia, they both have extremely strong walls, as well as this weapon to defend the city. Under such conditions. The possibility of being able to destroy the opponent's wall is almost non-existent, so the hero has always been the dominant player on the entire battlefield. Infiltration and anti-infiltration, assassination and counter-assassination. Destroying the defense line built by the opponent and trying to build the defense line of your own side is the main melody of the battle.
Just as economic warfare is fought before a battle begins in peacetime, the battle between Noxus and Demacia is about resources. Control the other party's food. It is to control the number of fighters on the other side. The other party's grasp of the ore veins was controlled. It is to control the opponent's weapons and armor. When there is no great advantage on both sides, neither will use all the troops to attack the opponent's city first. Because if it doesn't work, then what awaits you on your side is ruined miè.
In the darkness, beneath the walls were bloody battlefields. And above the city walls, there are smiling spectators. The battlefield is like a stage, where the people on the stage are interpreting their future with their lives, while the audience is leisurely eating food. Glancing at a qiē with a god-like eye. Everyone is not created equal, in times of peace. The same was true during the war years. All the people of the tribe want is to enter the city, and the people in the city enjoy it as a matter of course.
In the midst of the scuffle, some people had already grabbed enough loot, and then began to retreat. When the number of retreating people reached a certain number, the rest of the people were surrounded. The powerful and lucky will be able to break through, while the unlucky will be hacked to death with knives and become trophies of the Demacian tribe. It's like a fish jumping over the dragon gate, and only a few of the countless carp can cross the dragon gate, and all the rest have become foils. The big waves wash the sand, and what is left behind is not necessarily gold, maybe it is just people with better luck.
When the battle is over, someone immediately starts cleaning the battlefield, and some people have enough loot to be inspected during the day. Because everyone faces the same selection environment, there is no need to worry about being preded by others. After all, no one who can plunder his comrades-in-arms is willing to give his back to him. And if there are no companions on the battlefield, you can only become a dead body. The strong disdain to compete, and the weak dare not compete, this is the rule.
The fighting is over, those who have died are history, and those who have lost friends and loved ones are reasperating with the pain of parting. On the city wall, the warriors of Demacia glanced at him with a discrepant expression. The nights are long and boring for them, and whenever a battle begins, the time always passes faster. Although this is cruel, they are used to it, after all, they have no ability to change, they can only choose to accept and become a spectator.
It's just that they don't know that this is not the case in Noxus. As long as there is a battle in Noxus, the warriors on the city wall will jump into the battlefield like dumplings in the water, use their own blood to get battle merits, and even if they are lucky, they can also find the strong, after all, there is also a lot of merit in Noxus. In Noxus, there are also several heroes who are introduced, and these people are selected to become heroes, and they often don't forget the person who introduced them. Because of this, what is a farce for the Demacians is a stage in Noxus.
The scale of the scuffle under the walls was so huge that Galen and Galio, who were the defense of the entire Demacia, had naturally been drawn over for a long time. This kind of scuffle often occurred after the declaration of war between Demacia and Noxus, making it much less of a tribe outside of Demacia today. If all the tribes were to be eliminated by Noxus, then Demacia would be surrounded, and at that time, it would be a thought for Noxus to cut off Demacia's water supply or food supply. Because of this, after seeing that the battlefield was already in chaos, Galen and Galio immediately rushed to the edge of the city wall.
In such a large-scale scuffle, the walls could never be opened. As soon as the walls are opened, the enemy may take advantage of the opportunity to capture the gates. So at this time, it's just time for the heroes to perform. There was no hesitation. Galen snorted, and immediately jumped directly from the city wall with one hand! Galen was wearing a heavy armor, and now he was adding to the speed of his descent, only to hear a loud bang, as if the whole ground trembled violently!
At the same time, Galio also waved his wings and stood on the change of the city wall. The wings flapped slightly, and the direction of the wind around them immediately changed dramatically. If you look closely, you will see that when Galio flails his wings. The Demacian warriors in the melee are a little faster, and the Noxus warriors are a little slower, and Galio can become a hero, which naturally has a unique place.
And in the midst of the melee. Several figures also stood on the walls of Demacia. The first one was dressed in jeans and a white T-shirt, and he looked very easy-going like a leading boy. The moment this person appeared, the eyes of the Demacian warriors standing on the city wall changed suddenly, and they could clearly see the look of worship in their eyes.
The great inventor Cui Hao, although he does not have strong combat ability, has extremely terrifying manufacturing ability. Among Demacia, the great inventor Cui Hao and Jace, known as the future soldier. All are great people of the Technical Institute of Demacia. There was a mini plane suspended in the sky above Cui Hao, and only one person could be on the plane. It looks like a miniature toy airplane. However, only those who have fought with this plane know how terrifying this plane is in combat capability.
And at this time, beside Cui Hao, there was an extremely handsome man, this man was holding a long tube in his hand, and the tip of the tube could not read the change, this man was the future soldier, Jace! Behind Jace, there were two steam engine people, one was naturally a steaming steam engine Blitz, and next to Blitz, there was a girl.
Clockwork Demon Orianna, this is a very poor girl. Once upon a time, Orianna had a father who loved him and a complete family, but because Orianna was too kind to adapt to this cruel world, she died after going through a lot of things. Oriana's father made Orianna into a clockwork puppet, and although she had a mind, she was no longer human. Jace, on the other hand, made Orionna more perfect and more capable of fighting.
Just as Jace was leading Britz and Oriona up the city wall, a beam of light suddenly shot out of the dark night sky and slammed into Jace's body! And Jace, as a hero, naturally has extremely strong strength. I saw that Jace's body didn't dodge at all, but gently fiddled with the stick in his hand, and a beam of light shot out of the stick and collided with the beam in the sky.
The light was originally an invisible object, but in the darkness, the two rays of light collided together and burst out with a powerful explosive force, the darkness was torn apart in an instant, and the night was even brighter for a moment. And by this light, everyone on the city wall had already seen that on the other side of the battlefield, several people were also holding weapons, and they were slowly walking towards Demacia.
As long as it is a battlefield, it is naturally indispensable to the Hand of Noxus Darius and the Glory Executioner Delevingne, the Delai brothers are born to fight, as long as there is a massacre and battle, the Delai brothers are not willing to miss it. And behind the Delay brothers, a man dressed in iron armor and holding a scepter in his hand also attracted everyone's attention, and Jace's pupils suddenly contracted when he saw this man! Mechanical Pioneer, Victor!
Victor leaned on his cane and stopped at a great distance from Demacia, and then a hoarse voice sounded in the night sky: "Jace, don't you feel any guilt for stealing my technology, creating Blitz, and transforming Oriana." ”
Jace took a deep breath, then smiled coldly at Victor in the distance and said, "Your technique is like a medical skill, if you use it well, it is the medical skill that can cure diseases and save people, and if you use it badly, it can only be a technique that is more convenient for killing." I've learned your techniques and used them for a better place to transform humanity, why should I feel guilty. ”
Victor shook his head lightly and said, "If a person's arm has suffered a heavy trauma, then for the sake of the whole person's life, this arm will be amputated. You Demacia, this discarded arm, is a source of wisdom for humanity, but it won't do anything, Jace, you couldn't be more wrong. There's not much to say yet, my good student, and let me see what you've learned from me! (To be continued......)
