Chapter 964: Rest
Everything is going well on Rod's side, and on the other hand, something is wrong on the Void Prophet's side.
According to the plan of the Void Prophet, with Kilgoof's side attacking Demacia and White Cliff City being attacked by the Shurima Revival, it is impossible for the Noxian authorities to sit idly by and not support.
All communications in Kilgofo have been cut off, and in the midst of misdirection, Noxus and Demacia will soon be in the middle of an all-out war!
Yes, the local military and political leaders in Kilgofo will definitely be hanged afterwards, but in a state of war, the Noxians will definitely not have any fear, and they will even take the initiative to expand the scale of the battle!
This is the political philosophy of Noxus - either you don't fight, or you win if you fight.
Noxus is not a clay-footed giant that has just emerged from the Ionian quagmire, and if there is a real chance, there is no reason to refuse a military operation against Demacia.
The Void Prophet had heard of Svein's caution and foreknew his cautious policy, but it was precisely because he knew Svein's character that he dared to confirm that Noxus would not ignore it if there was a partial war.
However, the truth gave the prophet a hard blow......
The battle lasted for half a month, and the Noxus authorities not only did not give any form of material support, but also did not even have any reinforcements, and completely put on a posture of letting Kilgofo die......
What's going on?
The old Zorom was getting more and more unbearable, his initial excitement had passed, and now if it weren't for the Prophet's own watch, he might even shake out the truth of the matter!
Although Zorom is already on the Void Prophet's thief ship, that doesn't mean he can't jump ship!
If everything had gone as the Prophet had foreseen, Zorom would have died in a frenzy, drained of all his value, and then discarded—but now that the reality was completely different from what the Prophet had foreseen, how could he continue to be fanatical?
When the prophet's "prophetic" ability becomes no longer real, believers will naturally have their own thoughts, although everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, but ...... After all, dead friends don't die poor.
You can't do anything, everyone will stop the loss in time.
If Zorome's fears were minor troubles, then the suspicions from Zorga and Boseman were the real ones.
These two commanders are not followers of the Void Prophet, and their participation in this plan is completely deceived - if the plan goes well, they will always be kept in the dark, but now that the plan has gone wrong, the Noxian authorities are unwilling to give support, and the two of them have even stopped the military operation, and sent a special military messenger to secretly inquire about the situation in the direction of the Immortal Fortress!
Although the Void Prophet intercepted the messenger and successfully forged the reply letter, it ...... The seeds of suspicion have been planted, and forcible concealment will not solve the underlying problem.
Faced with this predicament, the Void Prophet was a little dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Why did the Noxus authorities choose to stand still in such a good opportunity?
When did the Noxian wolf become an old turtle?
Thankfully, the confusion didn't last long—when the Void Prophet learned of Vladimir's death, all mysteries were solved.
Vladimir dies in the Immortal Fortress, the elite of the Empire attacks without even catching a single hair, the Pale Lady disappears inexplicably, and Svein bursts into a thunderous ......
At such a delicate time, if the Noxian authorities would still attack Demacia because of a local war of unknown origin, they would be crazy!
What's even more vicious is that in terms of timing, Rod's assassination took place almost simultaneously with Kilgofo's initiative - not to mention how disgusting he was after the Void Prophet got the news!
Obviously, in the eyes of the Noxus authorities, Operation Kilgofo has been labeled as "unreliable", and it is impossible for the Noxus authorities to give any level of support until the whole thing is known!
It can be said that Rhodes's unequaled assassination killed the powerful Grand Duke Vladimir of Noxus on the one hand, and on the other hand, more importantly, poured dirty water on the Void Prophet - the accident that happened at the same time, even if it was not connected, was also connected.
Moreover, how can Noxus have the confidence to start an all-out war with Demacia at this time?!
After figuring out what had happened, the face under the mask of the Void Prophet twitched involuntarily for a long time.
I thought that this time I had obtained the most perfect first move - in order to prevent Rhodes and others from coming to Kilgofo to make trouble, he even used the power of his own sect to arrange a large number of void creatures in the city, and also controlled Kilgoof's forbidden magic stone defense system, as long as Rhodes dared to come to Kilgofort, even if he brought the star spirit with him, he had to stay!
What the Void Prophet didn't expect was that Rhodes didn't come to Kilgofo at all, and his big trouble in the Immortal Fortress not only made the Noxus authorities dare not act rashly, but also splashed dirty water on himself!
Seeing that the battle without follow-up support had no chance of provoking an all-out war, the Void Prophet finally chose to give up after a moment's hesitation.
"People outside of fate......"
"You don't have to go so smoothly every time......"
"No one can stop the Void from coming, no one!"
……………………
That night, the Void Prophet left Kilgofo, and his followers disappeared overnight.
And the next morning, when the lord of the city, Zorom, found out about this, the whole person quickly fell into a collapse in fear, and he trembled and called for someone to find Zorga and Bosman, and confessed everything to them, and the two highest military governors of Kilgofo learned of everything, and in shock, they immediately sent messengers to the Immortal Fortress to ask for news.
At this juncture, the personnel who defended Noxtola reported that Noxtola had been repaired.
Soon, Drorom, who was abandoned by the Void Prophet, was sent to the Immortal Fortress through Noxtola, and when he was interrogated, he confessed everything in a sobbing voice, but all the things he confessed about the Void Prophet and the Void Sect were proven to be false, and the people he mentioned were either ordinary people who had no problem or didn't exist at all......
Before the time came, the Void forces were dormant again, and after all of them withdrew from Kilgofo, they left no useful information behind.
As for this guy who is willing to provoke a war for the sake of eternal life...... Delevingne will use him to show off his execution skills.
As Draven's axe fell, the first encounter between Rhodes and the Void Prophet came to an end, and this time Rhodes won by a narrow margin, but ...... It's just getting started!
