Chapter 655: Immortal Fortress

As Jeno emerged from Tam's mouth and set foot on the land of Noxus, a crow's chirp rang out over his head.

Tam had come out of an abandoned well, and he looked up at a barren dead tree beside him, the branches of which were covered with dense crows, which were just ordinary crows, but still made Jeno feel unrelieved.

Disturbs Raven and makes him feel like a criminal exposed to police surveillance.

However, he was here to see Svein, so he took a picture in advance.

"If only these crows could call Svein for me." With such a thought, Jeno yelled at the crow on the dead branch: "What do you see, haven't you ever seen a demon eat people? There's a kind of letting Svein come out! ”

There was a clamor of crows and the sound of fluttering wings, and they chirped as if to insult Jeno's incomprehensibility.

What are you talking about? We can't understand crows? Isn't that embarrassing the crows?

Of course, this was Jeno's over-reading, in fact, he didn't know what the crows were expressing, he felt bored, put a hand in his trouser pocket, carried the fragment of the broadsword that Father Comte had given him, and some Noxian coins from Anne's purse, and walked towards the towering immortal fortress not far away.

Walking in the barren land on the outskirts, Jeno could see the cities spreading in the distance, all shrouded in the shadow of the Immortal Fortress.

Jeno gazed at the magnificence of the ancient building, its impenetrable façade and towers hung with countless imperial flags. Nothing embodies the power of Noxus like it, the center of Noxian politics and the origin of culture, where everything he wants awaits him.

The Immortal Citadel is located in the heart of Noxus, and it has a history that surpasses the empire. It is said that it was the terrible Wraith Maude Caesar who ordered its construction, and many parts of it have been completely bulldozed and gradually rebuilt over the past few hundred years, so that the streets are high and low, and some areas are now below the surface.

Few people dared to walk the streets after dark without a guard, but unfortunately, it was already dark when Jeno arrived in the capital.

There's a reason why you don't walk alone at night, because the nights in Noxus are never restless.

The desert march song floated from the Zagaya's tent area by the river, and the sound of swords clashing echoed in a nearby reckoning arena. The wurm in the iron-walled fence smelled the freshly slaughtered livestock in the slaughterhouse to the north, and let out a restless howl one after another.

The sounds of widows, grieving mothers, or veterans crushed by nightmares make up the harmony of the night, set against the roars of drunken soldiers and street vendors who specialize in business in the dark.

The guards guarded the city gate full of oppression, and the height of the immortal fortress wall was several times that of the city gate.

The Immortal Fortress not only has a wall, but also an inner wall on the inside of the outer wall. The double walls are surrounded by many tall sentry posts that stretch out like starfish, and you can see all the movements on the ground of the entire capital from the sentry posts, but for some reason, crows often nest on these sentry posts.

And above the city walls, there are jagged battlements, which are patrolled by strict guards throughout the day. Bright torches hung on the outer walls of the battlements, and each torch was replaced in time before it burned out, bringing a little fire to this gloomy city.

Beyond the city walls are ghettos, where the expanded buildings are densely packed next to each other, leaving only winding alleys and crowded streets for pedestrians to pass through. With its stately architecture, narrow and claustrophobic streets, and walled eaves, Noxus can build even the most modest dwellings like a fortress.

There are two most intuitive feelings for people who come here, claustrophobic patients will go insane and lose their sanity after living here for a few days. But for those who prefer a small space, it's a very safe place to have a fortress-like cottage here. Because in hundreds of years, no army has dared to attack the Immortal Fortress.

Now Jeno had the first problem he encountered after arriving at the Immortal Fortress - he did not have a pass to enter the interior of the walls, but the people he had to contact all lived within the walls.

The reason why he didn't directly ask Tamu to teleport him into the city walls was because he was afraid of LeBlanc and her black roses, and their eyeliner spread all over the Immortal Fortress, and there were not many crows roaming over the fortress.

Secondly, there is a place where there is water in the city, either a sewer or a stinky ditch, maybe you can encounter a surprise when you teleport, and you may see a floating corpse floating in front of you.

Yes, Noxus is a murderer who kills not only the invaded on the battlefield, but also the mutilation of others on their own land, driven by profit or desire.

Noxus was founded on a riverbank delta, although there are three river pathways, which then flow into the Sea of the Watchers several kilometers away. Unfortunately, all three rivers are heavily patrolled.

Uniformed guards stood on either side of the grand gates, armed with spears and steel helmets, very carefully examining passers-by and demanding access documents.

Because during the current war, many soldiers in the Immortal Fortress have been withdrawn, so while the defense is weakened, the inspection strength has been increased a lot, of course, the main purpose of this is to prevent Ionia from sending assassins to infiltrate the Immortal Fortress.

Geno swept the heavy coinage in his hand, thinking that he might be able to bribe the guards to enter the city, but on second thought, such behavior would also make him more suspicious, and he should always remember that he was under constant surveillance.

While the surveillance may have been a contribution, it never hurts to have an eye on Doran.

He took another deep look at the center of the city, where three towering stone pillars that were independent of each other, huge monoliths that shimmered with dark energy, formed the highest building in the capital, like a monument, like some kind of oppressive seal.

In fact, the unique three-stone pillar tower, the monument-like building is the real immortal fortress, and the rest of the royal capital is just an extension of it, it is the oldest and strongest building in the capital, and it is the foundation of the Noxian roots.

The Immortal Citadel has been designated a no-go area by Svein, but Genno knows that the Black Rose Society is still active in it. Even living in this city, there are many people who don't know that the depth of the Immortal Fortress is much deeper than its height.
