March 2837 in the Valoran calendar was definitely an eventful one. Several major events have occurred in the Valoran continent one after another.

The first major event was the destruction of the East Sea Fleet by an unknown force in the Ionian War in which the Federation of Demacia participated in the Ionian War.

Since the war of the Federation of Noxus to invade Ionia, the Federation of Demacia, as a thousand-year-old enemy, did not hesitate to send troops to support Ionia. However, the Federation of Demacia did not send an army to the war this time, and only sent the East China Sea Fleet, one of the three naval formations. The reason given is that a few years ago, the War College caused the army of the Commonwealth of Demacia to suffer a heavy blow, and the army is reorganizing and cultivating a new army, unable to fight across the sea, and the discerning Ionians can see that this is an excuse, but no one can refute them, and the Ionian Federation can only be blamed for being too rich and rich, for this kind of country that has no treasure mountain but no equal military strength, some people will think about robbing it openly, and some people will think about stealing it secretly. Because there is no pure friendship at all in the exchanges between nations, only eternal interests!! Therefore, in the previous three Ionian Wars, although the Demacian Federation sent troops to participate in the war, they demanded a huge amount of war military expenses and strategic materials from the Ionian Federation before and after the fact. After the beginning of the Ionian War, the envoys of the Federation of Demacia sent to Presti, as on the previous two occasions, and proposed a larger budget for war and armaments than in the previous war. Because the amount of money demanded by the Federation of Demacia this time is too large, it can no longer be collected by the treasury alone, if this amount is to be met, the part that the Federation cannot take out needs all major families to take out their personal private treasury reserves, this practice has touched the psychological bottom line of the Ionian nobles, they first led the parliament to veto the proposal of the Federation of Demacia, and then several major aristocratic groups jointly forced the palace council to surrender to Noxus, as long as they can keep their wealth and status, the rise and fall of the country really has nothing to do with the nobility. After returning home, the angry envoy of Demacia reported the matter to Emperor Jiawen III, which made His Majesty the Emperor furious, and wanted to refuse to send troops, but under the persuasion of the prime minister, he reluctantly agreed to maintain the good image of the Federation of Demacia in Valoran, and sent a soy sauce East China Sea Fleet to support the Ionian battlefield.

Since its arrival in the waters near Ionia, the Demacian East Sea Fleet has been strictly following the instructions of the Demacian military headquarters. Circling around the Ionian coastline, whenever the Noxian fleet or the Pirate King's fleet approached, they would retreat hastily after firing a few shots, never confronting their opponents head-on or fighting them head-on. After going back and forth like this a few times, the naval commander of the Noxian side saw a little taste, as long as the Demacia East Sea Fleet did not approach the three major garrison seaports of Ionia in the west, south, and north, the Noxian navy would ignore it. On the afternoon of the day when the Noxian army broke through Presti, the capital of Ionia, the troops of the Noxian Navy stationed in the harbor of the Ionian Gulf of Tonkin were patrolling the coast on a daily basis, and found a large area of debris pushed to the shore by the tide. This flotilla, which was inexplicably destroyed by an unknown force, was the Demacia East Sea Fleet.

The second major event was the appearance of the Void Forces and the Void Mist outside the magnificent barrier that separated the northern and southern continents of Valoran.

One of the three major passes of the Great Magnificent Barrier, the "Acacia" Pass, there is also a big event here, a large purple mist has spread here from the direction of the Acacia and Shurima deserts. Since the Battle of the War College, after the War College Guardian troops in Acacia were withdrawn, their original garrison area was taken over by the three combat brigades of the Noxian Federation, after all, the ownership of the "Acacia" Pass belongs to Noxus, as long as you pass through here, you can directly enter the hinterland of Noxus, Acacia's Void Rift Seal has been in a stable state for a long time, although occasionally lost Void Monsters enter the Valoran Continent through this gap, However, under the encirclement and suppression of the garrison troops of the War College and the Noxus Joint Defense Force, they almost did not set off any storms. However, since the withdrawal of the War College garrison, Acacia's Void Rift has been in an unstable state, constantly spraying Void Energy into the surroundings, and the purple-cyan Void Energy is gradually spreading to all sides like a cloud of purple mist, constantly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. This also forced the Noxian troops stationed here to retreat continuously. (Void Invasion Prospect Synopsis, Chapters 86 & 120)

The situation of the Acacia Pass alarmed Marshal Svein and General Darius, and Darius even went to the "Acacia" Pass to take command, and successively sent scout troops to try to enter the fog area to investigate, but all the exploration troops that entered the fog area did not return. Darius sent a brigade of 5,000 people into the fog area for the last time, and the three generals who led the team all had the combat power of 14-15 level heroes, and the strength of more than 20 lieutenants was also between level 12 and 13, and level 12-13 was equivalent to the combat power of the gray-robed guardians of the major federation teleportation arrays. Such a powerful legion, three days after entering the fog area, was still silent, and no useful information was transmitted. Just when Darius was desperate to lead the team to find out more, more than a dozen survivors of the troops who had previously entered the fog area were found and returned, but they were all unconscious after arriving at the barracks, and everyone's skin and pupils showed a strange purple and blue color, after being in a coma for two days and two nights, under the full treatment of the Noxus and Zuan treatment teams, one of the female adjutants was the first to wake up, and she only said two words to the visiting General Darius and then fell into a coma again, "Void, monsters, troops." Toxic mist, infected, be careful! The rest of the Noxian soldiers who had woken up were in a similar situation, and after uttering a few key words, they fell unconscious again.

After combing and integrating the Noxus think tank team, an intelligence analysis was successively in the hands of General Darius and Field Marshal Svein.

"The purple mist has been detected by the instrument, and it obviously has the fluctuation of void energy, and through the repeated keywords of the survivors, it can be determined that this purple mist area contains a highly toxic area that humans cannot be immune to, as for the erosion and reaction of the poisonous to the human body, a dozen lucky people must be brought back to the joint laboratory of Noxus and Zuan for the next experiment. In addition, there must be a large number of Void Monsters in the mist, and it is very likely that there are formations of Void Monster troops, so it can be inferred that Acacia's Void Rift Seal may have been completely opened, and this time it is not only Noxus that will encounter the most severe test, but the Valoran Continent will be invaded, and it may be at the moment of full-scale war with the monsters in another plane. ”

After reading this intelligence letter with a sinking face, Svein didn't say a word, stared at the huge map of the Valoran continent on the wall of the office, and after a long silence, Svein finally spoke, his voice was a little low and hoarse, "Make a few copies of this intelligence book, and send it to the War College Federation Council, the Demacia Federation, the Yodel Federation, the Pittwolf Federation, and the Freljord Tribal Alliance in an urgent secret letter; The military department was informed that the German-Norwegian border garrisons, the war college border garrisons, and the yodel border garrisons were all evacuated and rushed to the "Acacia" pass. In addition, prepare a wartime full power of attorney and this letter of intelligence, and use a special communication channel to deliver it to the battlefield of Ionia......" After a slight pause, Svein seemed to say to himself, "This time, it will be the battle of the Valoran continent, Sain, is it a battle, a withdrawal, or a stay...... If you're far away, choose for yourself. ”

Two days later, the Federation of Demacia, the Federation of Yodel, the Federation of Pittwolf, the Freljord Tribal Alliance, and the War College all received this secret letter from Noxus, and then the envoys of several major powers arrived at the League of Legends United Council at the War College at the same time. The clouds completely enveloped the Valoran continent.

The third major event took place in the high-profile battlefield of Ionia. As Presti's Armageddon finally came to an end, Ionia and Noxus could not be said to win or lose, but the way the war was terminated was not determined by the outcome of the battle.

The more than 10,000 Ionian defenders led by General Ryan collided with Sain's 130,000 troops in the eastern city of Presti, and Admiral Ryan rejected all the generals' requests to replace him, saying that only by dying in the front line could the Noxians believe in the determination of the Ionian forces to fight to the death, and that Sain would be more relieved to divide his troops to pursue the remnants of the Ionian forces. As the old general expected, when he learned that Admiral Ryan, the Supreme Commander of Ionia, had been killed in battle, and the remaining Ionian troops broke through in two directions, Sain did not hesitate to order the division of troops to pursue.

After the two Ionian army and the Noxian chasing army left the city one after another, the Noxian troops in the southern city also ushered in the catastrophe at this time, and the suddenly missing commander of the southern city, Vladimir, left the southern city Noxian army leaderless, and after resisting for just over an hour, it was defeated by the combined forces of the Ionian and bear tribes led by Zelos and Sabo, and finally had to surrender to the Ionian side. At the top of the towering bell tower in the distance, Vladimir and his master, Cain, watched as the army of South Noxus was completely defeated and slaughtered. For Vladimir, rights are not what he values most, but eternal life is. For his master, Kaiyin, who holds eternal control of his life, Vladimir will unconditionally fulfill any request he makes, including the abandonment of his own troops.

The Ionian North Road Breakout Army led by Chen Yin is in a difficult situation. The more than 10,000 Ionian troops led by Chen Yin were stubbornly resisting the onslaught of five times the number of Noxus, buying more time for the Zelos forces in the city to kill the southern city. According to the original plan, the result of his force was to resist to the point that even if the whole army was destroyed, the 50,000 Noxians who were pursuing would be firmly dragged here. Create an opportunity for the Ionian army to break through in the other direction, so that it can join up with the Zelos force that destroyed the southern city and kill the other Noxian army, which is also about 50,000 men.

With the squeezing of the formation of the Noxian army, the shield-shaped defense circle of the Ionian troops on Chen Yin's side has become smaller and smaller, and the soldiers have suffered heavy casualties, and there are only more than 4,000 of the 10,000 people left at the time of the breakthrough, and the battle in Nancheng has just ended at this time. After two more hours of hard support, Chen Yin was already covered in blood, and the few remaining generals beside him were still struggling to persuade Chen Yin, telling him not to waste any more physical strength, continue to accompany his group of people to death, and quickly break through alone, in this day's battle, if this Ionian army was not supported by Chen Yin, it would have been slaughtered a long time ago. Judging from the battle held today, Chen Yin was as brave as ten thousand enemies, if he was determined to flee from the beginning, it would not be easy for the remaining tens of thousands of Noxian troops to intercept him. Zelos and Sabo did not agree with Chen Yin to lead this dead army at first, and many generals also asked to exchange the troops with Chen Yin for this mortal team, Chen Yin was finally able to persuade the people of Zelos The reason is that he has experienced the defense of the War College, and has repeatedly fallen into a heavy siege, but in the end he can retreat with his whole body, if this army can still have living people left in the end, Chen Yin is definitely one of them, if he really can't hold on, Chen Yin also promised Zelos and Sabo that he will definitely find a way to break out. Of course, this was also Chen Yin's rhetoric in order to comfort everyone at that time, and from the moment he saw the old general Ryan and many Ionian sergeants going to their deaths and resolutely not retreating, Chen Yin also had the consciousness of sacrificing in Ionia.

At this time, in the area outside the western city of Presti, the Ionian army led by Zelos and Sabo was fighting with the Noxian army there, although this Noxian army panicked for a while after the pursuit failed to fall into the encirclement at first, but it did not collapse in a fight, after all, they were directly under the pro-army troops of Lieutenant General Sain, all of them were Noxian elite soldiers, although they had been at a disadvantage, but they had not been defeated by the siege, which also made Zelos and Sabo anxious, because Chen Yin had promised them, After successfully breaking through from Beicheng alone, he will rush here as soon as possible to accompany them to participate in this ambush battle. Until now, the battle situation here is not smooth, and Chen Yin has not seen anyone. couldn't help but make the two of them feel anxious, in the battle formation, they need to be calm and judge and guard against arrogance and rashness, find the enemy's weakness and break it with one blow, but the trance of the two leading leaders made the battle situation even more unsmooth, and the Noxian army, which had been at a disadvantage, gradually appeared a stalemate. On the other side of the Beicheng War Zone, there were only more than 1,000 Ionian warriors left on Chen Yin's side.

At this time, on the wide official road in Xicheng, a small team appeared. The leader was dressed in a purple robe, a burly figure, covered with black visor, and held a bronze hexagonal metal lamppost in his hand. The group halted when they spotted the battle outside Prestisi, leaving only the purple-robed man at the head approaching on a red horse......
