Chapter 1355: Noxus' Choice
It was naturally Rhodes who provided "off-field support" to Oriana.
Because Rhodes went to find Karma, it was half a month later when he learned that Oriana was in trouble - he tried to give Oriana a little support as soon as he got the news, although it was a little late, but it was a mistake to get a hand on Marzaha. (Of course, this was unknown to Rhodes himself, who had never heard anything about the Fearless Order in Ionia, and even helped Orianna because he guessed that the Supreme Council might be dishonest.) )
And after solving Oriana's troubles, Rhodes and Karma also reached a small agreement about the Void, and if there was a real war against the Void, Ionia would contribute.
Of course, there is a premise for this agreement - under the condition that the security of Ionia itself is guaranteed.
Obviously, Karma meant something, and for this kind of worry, Rhodes could be regarded as knowing the meaning of the song, leaving Ionia and going straight to Noxus.
At this time, the only thing that can make Karma worry is Noxus.
Interestingly, in Rhodes' cognition at the beginning, Noxus should be a desert of transcendentals, although there are many magicians here, and there are formed magician legions, but the number of transcendents is pitiful.
If the war takes place at the mortal level, Noxus is almost invincible, whether it is the Trifali legion or the mage regiment, this is a big killer at the mortal level.
However, once the transcendents are involved in the war, Noxus's life will become extremely difficult, the most obvious point is the battle of Presidium - Svein has a geographical advantage, and forces the Ionians to take the initiative to open a group, and occupies the best position first, and unfolds the formation first, only to be stunned by a wave of surprise attacks directly through the entire battle, and he is directly defeated under his own big advantage......
But with the passage of time, Rhodes is now a little unable to understand Noxus - the last time he assassinated Vladimir, Svein used a strange spell book, and when the secret book was opened, even Rhodes sensed a strange uneasiness and danger......
In other words, in fact, Noxus should also have a good foundation of transcendentals, but for one reason or another, there are not many masters.
As for what the specific reasons are...... Maybe it's because Black Rose wants to get a better grasp of the realm, maybe it's the lack of talented spellcasters, or maybe it's simply that these things haven't been discovered before.
In any case, at least from the performance of Noxus last time, the country is progressing at an incredible rate - even if Svein has suffered at the hands of Rhodes a few times, there is still no denying that he is a cunning and shrewd ruler.
So, in this case, Rod needs to go to Noxus - for Rhodes, Valoran's joint fight against the Void is a foregone conclusion, and judging from the current situation, maybe Noxus is the only X-factor.
……………………
Compared to the last time I visited, the Immortal Fortress seemed to be much more prosperous.
For a country like Noxus, the prosperity of the city can be seen as a sign of adequate preparation for war - despite the recent political turmoil in Noxus, it will not delay the country on the fast track to development.
For the changes in Noxus in recent years, Rod has deliberately made up lessons before, so he still knows something.
When Svein liquidated the remnants of the Black Rose in the past, he did not use simple and crude extermination or the more utilitarian extermination of the family, he was very unin with the Noxian style of opening up at the last moment, and adopted the method of exile to deal with the families involved with the Black Rose.
Of course, this is not about being kind or benevolent, but about maximizing the use of resources.
During his exile, Svein took almost all of the real estate that the families had left in the Immortal Fortress or the core of Noxus, and then retained the core of the family - at the same time, he also introduced version 2.0 of the Pioneer Act, which opened a new door for the exile families.
As a result, the families who were exiled to the border area quickly became cross-river dragons with the support of the new law, and for the benefit of their own families, they would naturally take the initiative to change customs after arriving in the designated exile area, and guide the iterative changes of local production......
With the development of the frontier to a great extent, the material needs within Noxus began to grow significantly, the economy took off, and most importantly, Svein ensured that the aristocracy was the main target no matter what kind of purges were carried out, and the people, although also influenced, remained generally stable.
As for whether these black roses will be exiled to the remnants, they will engage in tandem in a vain attempt to resurrect or something......
Don't think about it, if the dragons are divided into eight pieces without a leader, and to this extent, the black roses can be revived again, then Noxus is really hopeless, and Svein should wipe his neck himself.
Not to mention...... Those families hooking up with Black Rose don't necessarily stem from loyalty, do they?
In this way, at the cost of completely offending a large number of people, Svein used the remnants of the Black Rose to greatly develop the economy of the Noxus Frontier, and even based on this, Noxus ushered in a precious golden age.
At the same time of development, the Noxian Grand Commander did not stop his pursuit of magical power, and more and more magical items in the Immortal Fortress were rediscovered, and even the folk had the legend that "so-and-so got the weight of the Great Commander and directly became a powerful magician".
Although there is no real hammer at present, but it may not be groundless, considering that after Svein's previous series of actions, no matter what problems arise, the political situation can be as stable as Mount Tai, Rod has to suspect that he has established an unbreakable foundation for himself through some means.
Walking down the streets of the Immortal Fortress, Rhodes had only one thought in his heart at this time.
The Grand Commander of Noxus......
It's really not an ordinary person!
That's good, too.
Since there are such means, then Svein should be a smart man.
Since he is a smart man...... Rod believed that Svein should be able to make the right choice when faced with the problem of the Void.
Even if he pit Noxus several times.
