Chapter 18: The Shadow Fist of the Last Generation
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Bouvier and the other senior councillors, who had been waiting at the head of Presti City, finally arrived at the team that had come out of the Noxus barracks. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At the head of the team was Lieutenant General Sain on a huge black horse, followed by Major General Caterina and Senior Colonel Riven, followed by the rest of the Noxus army and an army of more than 10,000 people.
During the journey, Sain turned his head to Catalina on the side and said, "Caterina, there are restrictions on the disarming troops entering the city this time, this group of timid Ionians only allows less than 10,000 troops to enter the city to garrison and surrender, so we need your elite team, after all, there are still forty or fifty thousand Ionian garrisons in the city, if it is just an ordinary army, I am afraid that I will not be able to suppress that group of Ionian soldiers." ā
"Thank you, General Sain, for explaining it to me so clearly, but even if you don't say it, Caterina promises to complete all the tasks you have been told. Since I was a child, my father taught my sister and me that the spirit of Noxus is obedience, and the orders of the commander are my life. Caterina replied with a slight bow.
The corners of Sain's mouth first showed a smile, but in an instant, his expression was slightly sad, and he said with emotion
"Your father, my most respected predecessor, Grand General Quekao, has always been an idol and role model for our Noxian soldiers. I am sure that you will carry on his will and will to let the battle flag of Great Noxus fly in every corner of the Valoran continent. ā
"I will not be dishonored! Shogun! Caterina replied decisively again.
As the force marched, they had come to the foot of Presti's gates. Looking at the legendary city wall above his head, which was thousands of meters high and almost skyrocketed, Sain's eyes narrowed slightly. Presti of Ionia, Great Noxus has gone through hundreds of years of conquest, and finally today, it is about to conquer the city, if this golden city wall is dyed blood red, it will be more beautiful, more in line with our Noxian aesthetics, right? Hehehehehe. Sain sneered in his heart, flicked his horse's head, and as the gate opened, he rode into the city first.
When Sain led Caterina and Riven, as well as dozens of generals and hundreds of personal guards, another Ionian noble councilor who had a relationship with Sain, Marquis Snod, greeted him with a humble face. "Your Excellency the General, it's an honor to see you again, please come with me, and we'll go up to the city tower from here."
After dismounting, Sain followed Snod with the Noxus delegation, along the wide inner city staircase, ready to ascend to the highest wall of the East Gate. At this time, the troops led by Rui Wen and Caterina were stopped at the city gate. When Sain looked back and saw it, he gave a heavy "Huh?" "Yes.
The Marquis of Snood, who was on the side, was so frightened that he hurriedly explained, "Lord Sain, according to the proposed procedure, you need to sign the endorsement before you can let the troops enter the city and disarm. Thank you for your forgiveness. ā
The surrender of the Valoran continent is generally in triplicate, with one copy for each of the warring parties and the remaining copy carried by the terns and submitted to the Valoran Federal Parliament. Moreover, the production of each surrender book is extremely advanced, and after each copy is signed, a sacred contract will be generated, and the scroll will not be burned in case of fire or water. Although it is because of this that the Supreme Council of Ionia dared to surrender without fear of being broken by the Noxian side after surrendering.
Sain's eyes rolled slightly, and he laughed. "It's okay, Duke Snoad, why don't you work hard, and we'll do it at the same time? After all, we have so few people entering the city, and there are still tens of thousands of garrisons left in your city, and my subordinates will also worry about my safety. As he spoke, Sain tapped Snood's shoulder. Waiting for his reply.
This shot made Snod's whole body tingle, he could be treated so kindly by the Supreme Commander of Noxus, he felt that he should be the first person in the Ionian nobility circle to enjoy this kind of treatment, but why did General Sain call me Duke Snod?
"Lord Sain, I'm honored that you can still remember the villain's name, but my title is a marquis, not a duke, hehe...... By the way, and what do you mean by doing it at the same time? ā
"It's okay, when the surrender is over today, I promise, you'll be a duke. In addition, it will be carried out simultaneously, that is, you accompany my two subordinates to the garrison to complete the disarming, and I will go up to sign the agreement with your speaker. Thanks to your efforts in coordinating this time, let's speed up some of the progress, and I can still have time to celebrate for you and have a banquet or something. Are you right? Sain said lightly.
Snod was deeply moved by the name of this duke, you must know that since the founding of Ionia, the nobles with the title of duke can only be counted in one slap, and they are all hereditary. The thought that he would soon become a duke, his heart swelled with irrepressible passion, and being able to receive the job of receiving General Sean made him feel that today was his lucky day. General Sain's thigh must be firmly protected, Snod thought to himself.
"Well, yes, Lord Sain. My subordinates will immediately go and accompany the other two generals into the city, and then I will arrange for my secretary to accompany you up. Snod climbed the pole, and the work of this meeting had begun to claim to be a subordinate.
"Lisa, come here, you accompany Lord Sain to the Prestele." Snod called a sexy and foxy young woman from the line behind him, and when the two staggered, Snod whispered to her, "Use what you are best at dealing with men, serve me Lord Sain, and if you behave well, the villa in the West Side will be yours." With that, Snod hurried to the gate of the city, repelled the sergeants who were blocking Riven and Katarina, and nodded and led the two and Noxus's troops into the city.
"Lord Sain~ I'll accompany you up, the stairs are a little steep, be careful~" With a delicate shout, the female secretary named Lisa stepped forward and grabbed Sain's thick arm, and deliberately rubbed her chest on Sain's arm a few times.
"Oh, hehe, that's work." Sain glanced at the foxy woman lightly, did not refuse, and let her hold her arm and slowly walk up to the east gate of the east city, which is as high as a thousand meters.
When Sain stepped on the "Presy" monument at the top of the city gate, the team led by Rivien and Caterina also arrived at the camp of the Ionian garrison.
At this time, on the stargazing platform of the Hall of Stars in Ionia City, a silver-haired Soraka was closing her eyes and sensing the star power to perform divination, she had been sitting here for three days, constantly using the power of runes to guide the star power to divinate the hexagrams, even if she was as powerful as her, she was close to running out of oil lamps. Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and Soraka looked at the hexagram on the stargazing platform, still the same as the previous times. ā
With such a vague answer, what does this glimmer of life mean? Does it mean that Presti will have a glimmer of life if he accepts the fate of surrender, or does it mean that the fate of the whole city has only a glimmer of life? Blame yourself for the power of spiritual communication not long ago, which is too draining, and it is impossible to recover in a short period of time, so the hexagram is so vague? Soraka sighed and walked out of the main hall of the stargazing platform.
"Lord Soraka, there are several people visiting the outer temple, who claim to be from the Balance Sect, and have been waiting for you since yesterday." Seeing Soraka appear, a high-ranking priest hurriedly reported.
"Huh? Balanced sects? Okay, I see, I'll go out and meet them. "Balanced Sect?? Not by the Shadow Sect...... Who will come?
With doubts in mind, Soraka changed his blood-stained sacrificial robe and came to the outer temple.
Several people dressed in gray robes, after seeing Soraka, bowed in unison, and Soraka also hurriedly returned the salute.
"Prophet Soraka, long time no see......" A gray-robed man looked at Soraka with a smile as he lifted the mask on his head.
"Huh? Are you, the Shadow Fist of the Sect of Balance, Areda? Where have you been for the past ten years? Soraka was a little excited, she recognized the person, and she was a little happy.
"Hehe, Prophet Soraka, I'm no longer the Shadow Fist of the Sect of Equilibrium. Allow me to introduce you to a few people. ā
Areda pointed to a man beside her and said, "This is my husband, the furious heart of the previous generation of the Balanced Sect, Koziz. ā
"I've heard of the name for a long time, first meeting, Soraka-sama!" Koziz stepped forward to salute, and Soraka hurriedly returned the salute.
Arida pointed to a veiled young woman behind the two of them and said, "This is my child with Koziz, Akali, and the Shadow Fist of the Balance Sect's generation. ā
"Hello, Master Soraka!!" The slender Akali stepped forward and greeted respectfully.
After a few moments of pleasantries, Soraka learned of their intentions. Since Soraka used her psychic communication to ask for help two days ago, the mother and daughter who are living in seclusion in Presti City plan to contribute their strength to Presti, but Soraka has been closed to the stargazing platform for the past two days, so they have not been able to meet until today.
