Chapter 61: Intricacies

"Very good, very happy to see your blood and bravery. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

There was a faint smile on Darkwell's face, but then, his face sank. "However, to deal with the Demacians, it is not enough to have blood and bravery, it is not only Noxus and Demacia who are staring at Karamanda, the natives of the archipelago and the barbarians in the northern snow have sent envoys, as for whether the group of dwarfs have heard the news, we don't know for the time being, so the situation in Karamanda is complicated, and I don't know if more forces will intervene."

The natives of the island refer to the Ionians, and relations between the two countries are not harmonious, so Darkwell uses the slur term to refer to the Yodel people of Bandel City, southeast of Valoran, who are not as good as the Ionians in the eyes of the Noxians.

Heroes like Clay are, after all, a minority in Noxus. Of course, Kree himself didn't care much about the yodelers.

"Regarding the frosty tundra in the north, our intelligence officers have sent back some important news, which I only saw yesterday, and I haven't had time to report it to the high command."

A crisp female voice sounded, and the red-haired girl stood up again, Noxus's intelligence department has always been under the command of the Quekao family, and as the eldest daughter of the family, Caterina has naturally become one of the most well-informed people in this country.

"Oh, then you say, the loyalty of the generals in the hall is unquestionable."

"Yes, General."

Caterina's gaze swept over the room, then turned her gaze back to Darkwell's body and spoke, "The leader of the Frost Guardian Clan, Princess Mafula of the Snow Prayer Dance, has been found dead in her residence in Ricestee. The information we received was that after discussion among the tribal elders, it was determined that the cause of death was natural death. Although Mavre's death is suspicious, the elders have been unified, so our people can't investigate anymore, and most importantly, the new leader of the Frost Guard, the witch Lisandro, made an announcement at the coronation ceremony. ”

"She decided to lead the entire Frost Guard clan and pledge allegiance to Ash, the leader of Avarosa."

Caterina clearly saw a trace of waves in Darkwell's eyes, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously, for a shrewd swordsman, Darkwell's small detail could not escape Caterina's observation.

This made the girl a little surprised, because in her reflection, the most powerful man in Noxus seemed to never appear such emotions, his eyes were always unwavering, whether he was smiling and introducing newcomers to everyone before, or talking to his subordinates with a gloomy face, the expressions on his face were natural and appropriate, but there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, and Caterina would even feel that all his expressions were actually just a performance, he was laughing for the sake of laughing, angry for the sake of being angryIn fact, in his heart, there are no emotions that belong to human beings for a long time.

She vividly remembered what his father had said to General Darkwell when he talked about her, "The brevity of life makes people fanatical in their pursuit of eternal life, but what is the point of eternal life?" A long life can wear out a person's humanity, and when he pursues his own human instinct to pursue eternal life, but after he is truly immortal, he forgets why he wants eternal life. ”

This kind of talk can only be communicated between father and daughter in private, but this small detail of Darkwell just now still let Caterina know that he still has a human side to him.

"Is Mafra gone, too? I distinctly remember that she was still the little girl who led the charge against us...... Ash? Probably a descendant of Avarosa, right? Why would the new leader of the Frost Guardian clan pledge allegiance to her? ”

Caterina took a deep breath and said with some solemnity, "This is exactly what we have been worried about since we learned the information about the girl Ash, and there seems to be a terrible guy among our enemies. ”

"Huh? Little Carter, do you think so highly of her? In my opinion, there is no better girl in the same age than you. ”

Caterina smiled bitterly in the face of Darkwell's praise, "General, the ice and snow world in the north is relatively closed, and our strength there is also weak, so every time we get news of Ash, my father and I are surprised, because she is too young, but her experience is full of legends, just like the Chosen One, Freljord, who has been divided for countless years, is likely to be unified under her leadership, which is by no means good news for us." ”

"Ash, I know her."

A general suddenly interjected, a leader of the Northern Legion, who had many years of experience fighting the barbarians, "Her reputation is not low in the snowfield, even the barbarians know her name, they call her 'Ice Shooter'. ”

"She has been inherited by Alvarossa."

Caterina explains, "Ash was chosen as the head of the Avarosa clan due to the unexpected death of her mother when she was young, she was assassinated during a hunt, but escaped under the guidance of a snow eagle, and received the ice bow of one of the legendary three sisters of the year, the ice archer Avarosa, which also allowed her to inherit the title of Avarossa, and she not only quickly established herself in the clan, but also increased her strength by leaps and bounds. ”

"It's nothing short of a legend and a novel, but when it happened in reality, Ash's fame exploded, a powerful ice phoenix and a giant snowman gathered around her to protect her, the barbarian hero king, the Infinity Blade-wielding Tedamir also sought an alliance with Ash, and now the people of Freljord believe that she is the chosen one, and the divided Freljord is destined to have an ice queen."

"And all this happened so quickly, and when we got the information from that closed place, we found that General Darkwell, our enemy had gone from a weak dwarf to a sturdy giant as if overnight. The only good news is that Winter's Wrath and her people don't approve of Ash, and she's constantly fighting to prove that she's the true and qualified leader of Freljord. ”

Caterina's debriefing silenced Darkwell, the leader of Noxus slowly shifting his gaze to the huge map, staring at the northernmost part of the continent for a long time.

After weighing all aspects, Darkwell still gave the order: "There is no point in continuing to fight these barbarians, our main enemy is still Demacia." ”

"Jericho Svein, I appoint you as the commander of the Barbarian Reconciliation Mission. You are the best person to do this, and if the formation of the Freljord Alliance is inevitable, then we must at least keep this new alliance from stabbing us in the back when we are about to face the Demacians. ”

"Katerina, I have appointed you as Jericho Svein's lieutenant to assist him in his journey to the permafrost tundra, we cannot support the two-front battle, so this task, you must complete this task."
