(War of Runes) Chapter 118: The capital of Demacia, Vantican
"Max, after I leave, you must pay more attention to all the affairs of the Great Fence Military Region. Especially on the side of Etistan, although it has been attacked, the situation is still unknown, I don't know if there will be any new changes, I won't say more about the importance here, you must know it, so, the logistics depend on you! ”
"Yes! General, please rest assured, even if you can't eat a small bite of food, you will definitely ensure the supply of food and grass for these hundreds of thousands of sergeants and friendly soldiers on the front line!! ”
"Good! In addition, you control your own weight, too fat is unhealthy. I remember you said that now you get fat just by drinking cold water, so let's eat one or two less! ”
Max smiled wryly, he didn't expect that such a sentence from his mouth at that time would be really remembered by the general, and it seems that he really wants to put weight loss on the agenda recently.
"Bobby!"
"Hmm!"
"After I leave, the safety of these 200,000 soldiers on the front line will be in your hands, don't be impulsive in everything, try to be stable, and remember to discuss with everyone when you encounter difficult things to choose. Shadow, you have to cooperate with Bobby. ”
"Yes, got it, General!"
"Everyone, then I'm leaving, everyone take care!"
"Take care, General!"
This time he returned to Van Tigang, the imperial capital of Demacia, in addition to reporting on his work, Chen Yin also had to transport Kogas back, which was specially requested by Emperor Gavin III of Demacia.
Since the invasion of the Void Monsters, the Super Barrier Defense Line has been completely destroyed, the 100,000 Dreadnought Vanguard Legion has been wiped out, and dozens of generals such as Galen and Galio have been killed, and the citizens of Demacia have begun to panic every day, and many have packed their bags and prepared to leave the imperial capital to escape the war.
When Chen Yin temporarily took over as the general, although he won a front-line battle and captured the commander of the void, not many people believed it, and they all believed that this was a public opinion deliberately created by the Demacian government in order to stabilize the people's hearts.
Not only ordinary people, but even the nobles of Demacia don't have much hope for Chen Yin, a hairy boy, everyone just values the forces behind Chen Yin, and they also put more confidence in the reinforcements of the War College, even if it is the royal family of Demacia, when Chen Yin was awarded the so-called title and military rank, it is somewhat of this consideration.
However, to everyone's surprise, after Chen Yin arrived at the front line of Demacia, he created miracles one after another, this time he actually destroyed one of the lairs of the void monsters, Etistan, and the intelligence news was divided into three ways and transmitted to the imperial capital, Chen Yin's front-line troops sent a good news, the Great Fence Military Town sent a good news, and the royal family's secret agents lurking in the front-line troops also sent the same secret report to confirm.
Jiawen III, the royal family of Demacia, believed that Chen Yin really led the army to another big victory, which made Jiawen III, who gave Chen Yin various rewards, but had never seen this young man, had a strong interest in Chen Yin, but looking at the next stage of the Demacian army's march plan written by Chen Yin in his hand, Jiawen III couldn't make up his mind in his heart.
So, that night, Jiawen III summoned all the important ministers to the palace and began to discuss Chen Yin's proposal. Unexpectedly, in addition to the three big families of the Grahide family, the Bedwell family, the Bowes family, and the head of Zhao Xin, nine of the remaining twelve families, including the prince Jiawen IV, all unanimously opposed Chen Yin's proposal, in this case, even Zhao Xin, the first assistant minister of Demacia, had no way to reverse the situation, but fortunately, Jiawen III did not give his own decision at this meeting, he decided to see Chen Yin in person before making a decision.
The next day, the news of summoning Chen Yin back to the imperial capital was quickly transmitted to the front line through Demacia's intelligence system.
The journey from the Great Fence Military Town to the Imperial Capital of Demacia only takes seven days if you rush at full speed, and if you use the Super Teleportation Array, you can go back and forth within a day, but on the way back this time, the most important thing is to escort Kogas, Chen Yin must supervise with the team in case of accidents, so that the time on the road will be doubled, close to 15 days, before you can reach the Imperial Capital of Demacia.
After Chen Yin returned from Ertistan this time, he felt that the size of the Kogas seemed to be a little smaller, he thought it was an illusion, so he asked the craftsman to measure, and the result of the measurement turned out to be true, the size of the Kogas has shrunk by nearly 300 meters, and now there is a length of more than 800 meters, and the average rate is shrinking at a rate of about 20 meters every day.
Could it be said? Once the Void Monster stops eating, will it have this change in size? Chen Yin tried to communicate with Kogas with his consciousness, but apart from feeling his crazy killing intent and hatred, Chen Yin did not get any other useful information from Kogas. Make it smaller, and you might be able to march a little faster.
As Chen Yin expected, 12 days later, when the size of the Corgas had shrunk to more than 500 meters, their team had already arrived at the imperial capital of Demacia, Vantican, three days ahead of schedule.
The capital of Demacia, Vantican, was a city without walls and gates.
Because the founding emperor of Demacia, Guangdun Jiawen, once said, "The spirit and strength of Demacia do not need to be guarded by thin walls, and if the capital will also be invaded by the enemy, then there is no need for this country to exist." ”
Since then, the original walls of Vantican have been demolished, and it has become the only capital city in the continent that has not been protected by walls.
Advancing along the wide Avenue of Dawn de Maximia, Chen Yin's dusty unit soon attracted hundreds of thousands of onlookers.
When the huge wheeled towed flatbed truck at the end of the line appeared, the originally excited crowd did not know who was the first to let out a terrible scream, and in an instant, onlookers saw the tall figure as tall as a hill at the end of the procession, and its huge body that could not stretch out.
The shouts, the cries, the stampedes and screams of people running around each other were all in chaos.
Chen Yin was in the middle of the team entering the city at this time, and he was quite happy when he saw these people welcoming him on the horse, but the chaotic scene in front of him made Chen Yin's heart fluctuate, and people's panic did not seem to be fake, which means that Chen Yin's team that returned victoriously and the news after their victory were not conveyed to the people through the royal family. The people began to watch out of curiosity, curious about the origin of the more than 10,000 Demacian troops who had returned to the imperial capital, not to welcome their triumph.
At this time, on the balcony of a five-story theater building on the east side of Dawn Boulevard, a sweet-looking girl looked at the chaotic scene on the street with a smile on her face. In front of her, kneeling were two men in their forties wearing the uniforms of Demacia officials, and cold sweat was streaming down their chubby cheeks.
"Lord Lux? Not informing the people has caused chaos in the imperial capital, this, if His Majesty the Emperor knows about it, the villain will ......"
"Lord Lux, please save the villain's life!"
The two chubby officials began to kowtow to Lux incessantly, hoping that the new head of the crown guard family in front of him would save his life.
A child of only 3 or 4 years old was lying on the ground, his big innocent eyes scanning the chaotic and crazy crowd around him, and the loss of his parents made the boy start to cry, but no one in the crowd stopped his hasty escape, and a strong man of about thirty years old was about to step on the boy's body head-on......
The brawny man felt as if his body and teeth had been knocked against a steel plate, and then he sat down on the ground with his bleeding mouth covered.
In front of the boy, a man appeared wearing the uniform of a Demacian general, but did not wear the rank of epaulette.
I saw the man slowly bend down, pick up the little boy with his arms, and then see him slowly close his eyes.
The strong man, whose mouth was bleeding because of his sudden appearance, jumped up angrily, and waved his fists to teach the young man who didn't open his eyes a hard lesson.
At this time, a loud man's voice came into his mind, and at the same time, the voice sounded in the ears of hundreds of thousands of chaotic people on Dawn Boulevard.
"Greetings, people of Demacia! I am the commander of this team that has just entered the city, the new commander-in-chief of the Void Campaign, and the current general of the Demacia Army, Chen Yin. Please don't panic, don't keep running, our front-line troops have achieved a complete victory over the Void Monsters. Our team is escorting the commander of the Void Air Regiment into the city to meet the emperor and report the victory. The Void Monster Commander behind us is in a dying state, don't worry, please keep quiet and take a closer look at it!! The Void Monsters, they, have already lost, and we, Demacia, have won!! ”
After these few words were finished, Chen Yin's figure shook slightly, and his other arm quickly covered his nose, and several tall men in military uniforms instantly appeared next to Chen Yin, and at the same time reached out to support him.
This strong man with his fist raised and blood still flowing from his mouth looked at the epaulettes of these officers blankly, the lowest epaulette is also a lieutenant colonel with a palm tree logo, and two people have a golden six-pointed star on their epaulettes, this is, the general star symbol in the Demacian army, two major generals?!
After handing the boy in his hand to Alves, the commander of the cavalry beside him, Chen Yin wiped off the nosebleed, took out two epaulettes with three golden six-pointed stars from the left jacket pocket of his military uniform, and glued them to his left and right shoulders respectively, and then, strong rune fluctuations surged on his body, and his body slowly floated up, like a huge finger star, guiding the direction of light and hope to this group of people who were in a hurry.
The people on both sides of the Avenue of Dawn gradually stopped, their eyes slowly moving with the figure shrouded in golden light in mid-air, until he stopped above the body of the terrifying void monster. It's just when people start to recall what they just heard.
"Win??"
"Did you just hear that? We won? ”
"Well, look, that man in the air, that man on his shoulder!!"
"One, two, three? Big, great general's epaulettes? ”
"Really, is it really him? Is he the new general of our Demacia? ”
"Mom, just now an uncle said in my ear, we won? What does that mean? Did they win the battle? Will Dad be home soon? ”
Hearing the girl's words, the mother's eyes instantly filled with enthusiasm, and she held her daughter tightly in her arms with both hands and began to cry loudly.
"Mom, don't cry~~ What's wrong with you?"
The girl began to stretch out her little hand and wipe the tears that kept pouring out of her mother's eyes.
"Win!! We won!! Long live Demacia!! Long live the Shogun!! ”
"Long live Demacia!! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!! Long live the Shogun!! ”
Listening to the earth-shattering cheers on both sides of Dawn Boulevard, on the five-story theater balcony, a trace of resentment flashed in Lux's eyes, "Get out!" Two wastes! She kicked away the two officials in front of her and turned and walked back to the room.
