Chapter 1: Survival of the fittest, natural selection!

Walking out of the permafrost tundra, looking at the majestic Iron Ridge Mountains that lie between the permafrost tundra and the Noxian Empire like a dragon, the corners of Augustus' mouth hooked a slight arc, and his eyes playfully glanced at the warrior knights behind him who were either loyal or secretly wanted to stab him personally, pointed to the Iron Ridge Mountains and said with a smile: "I am very glad that you have withstood the test of the cold and dry permafrost tundra and successfully walked out of the boring permafrost tundra!" But I have to warn you that the permafrost may be boring, but it is not really dangerous, and I hope that all of you will join me in crossing the Iron Ridge Mountains between the permafrost and the Noxian Empire, just as we crossed the Iron Ridge Mountains from Noxus to the permafrost tundra! ”

That's not something to be funny about! Huo Nan, who was known for his unscrupulous and cynical behavior in the Warrior Knights, also showed the serious and solemn expressions on the faces of other knights at this moment. Or because of the icy climate of the permafrost tundra, the boring and comfortable life, the memories that have been forgotten or unwilling to recall, this moment rushes into the minds of every member of the Knights of Warriors.

Most of the knights of the Knights of the Warriors looked directly or secretly at Augustus, who had a bright and impeccable smile on his face, and at the head of the Knights of the Warriors who had brought him into this dangerous situation, and was also their nominal master.

Even the members of the Knights of the Warriors were reluctant to admit it, but they had to admit that they were all slaves that Augustus had purchased at great expense from the Finn Slave Exchange or through other means from various sources, both formal and shady, and that Augustus had given them armor and once again possessed the noble profession of knighthood, which was on par with the nobility in the eyes of the common people.

Even if they weren't really loyal to the well-behaved, rational and cautious master, when they swore an oath to the Noxian knight standing in front of them in armor with the Noxian emblem on it, they had to accept the fact that it didn't matter what they were in the past, and now they were part of the Knights of the Warriors, the personal knights of Master Augustus of Noxus!

Untied the shackles of slaves, won the status of knightly glory, and brought the badge of Noxus to usher in the fate and opponents that Noxian soldiers should have. There is never anything in this world that can be obtained without giving, just as there is only something in this world that can only be given but not obtained. None exist.

Perhaps because of the difference in status, nobles can get ten points for one point, and commoners can only get a pitiful share for ten points. But just as Augustus said to himself after hearing this brutal truth from the Sixth Knight of the Empire, Gulliglan, at least this is in line with the simple law of conservation of energy, isn't it?

Wearing armor with the emblem of Noxus, no matter how much they hate Noxus in their hearts, and how much they have no sense of belonging to Noxus, a society dominated by natural selection and survival of the fittest, which can only be dominated by the strong, they also have to face one problem: survival.

Noxus has never hidden its ambitions for domination over the continent of Valoran! Almost every Noxus resident remembers and knows one sentence since childhood: Noxus is a star above the nine heavens, destined to unify the continent of Valoran, and we were born in Noxus, so we should work hard to fulfill the dream of Noxus!

Imagine how a nation-state with such an ideal could not be feared by the empire entrenched in the continent of Valoran? Unify the Valoran continent. Doesn't that mean that this will remove the Demacian Empire, the Zaun Empire, the Acacia Empire, the Ionian Empire, Pierwaterf, Bandel City, and other kingdoms? That's not a safe sign!

And it's not a joke either! Possessing terrible ambitions, Noxus began to launch a series of conquests against the continent of Valoran three hundred years ago, which the Noxian Empire called a holy war.

Not only the mighty Noxian knights, the magicians trained by the Empire, and the inhabitants of Noxus joined the holy war, but also the Holy See, the spokesman of God on earth, joined in this holy war, which lasted for ten years and lasted for one or two years.

Just imagine, in the face of such an ambitious and powerful empire, the empire of the Valoran continent is not afraid. There are only two emotions born of jealousy: fear and hatred! There are many countries that fear the powerful empire of Noxus, and there are many countries that hate the Noxian Empire, of course, the former is not the same, and the countries that are afraid of the Noxus Empire will naturally not express their hostility to the Noxus Empire on the surface, but what about the countries that hate the Noxian Empire? That's not just overtly hostile. It will also secretly use strong force to warn the Noxian Empire, an empire with ridiculous and stupid ambitions.

No, this constitutes a period of army with the Noxus insignia affixed to it, and leaving Noxus will usher in an unprecedented death test. Chance: Most of the scattered Noxian army will not be able to withstand the temptation of death, and then go to accompany the mysterious and powerful Death!

One such thing happened in the Zaun Empire, where a retired soldier from the Noxian Empire traveled to the Zaun Empire. Because of the occasional display of a young man wearing armor engraved with the symbol of Noxus, the next day was brutally murdered in the territory of Zuan.

The news then spread to Noxus and was known to the noxian nobility, and Alexander Kellenster the Great was furious and furious. Gather the ancient noble families of St. Peter's City together, and then organize a private army of 300,000, and a war has swept through Zaun!

The war went on for half a year. It was eventually terminated by the intervention of the Demacian Empire and the Pilwaterv Empire, but an agreement was also made: retired soldiers should be protected by other empires, and those who belonged to the category of service soldiers were no longer included!

The Noxian Empire will not show any affection for other Imperial soldiers in its territory! As for whether the active or retired soldiers must leave Noxus, as for whether to leave vertically or horizontally, it depends on the soldier's background, strength and strength!

What about Noxian soldiers? Whether it was the Demacian Empire, which was known for its justice, or Zaun, who had a strong fighting ambition, or Ionia, who did not pay much attention to the Valoran War, they all expressed disgust and disgust, and basically dealt with it in the same way as the Noxian Empire handled it roughly.

In the face of imperial interests, mercy is cruelty to oneself! Neither the Demacian Empire, which is known for its justice, nor Zuan, who has a strong desire to fight, or the Ionian Empire, which ignores the strife on Valoran, or Piltover, who is bent on studying science and technology to improve the standard of living, will not make a fatal mistake in this regard.

Glancing at his Knights of Warriors, who still showed a palpitating expression on their faces, Augustus smiled disdainfully. Death? For the most cowardly knights! As for the cowardly knights? Hehe, what is worth to me compared to a scattered gold coin or a silver bourbon coin in my pocket? Wouldn't it be more interesting to let this group of cowards and betrayers fight against themselves on the battlefield and bite themselves fiercely, so it would be more interesting to let the enemies of Noxus eliminate them with their own hands?

Lives? This is the most worthless thing in the Valoran continent, but Augustus, who has no compassion and wants to climb to the pinnacle of Noxus power, is a model of knightly scum that will think about it, and the only thing he thinks about is how to maximize the use of the power under his hands.

Knights of Warriors? Augustus smiled disdainfully, for this private armed army that he had spent a year building, only one of Alista Augusts would show that dispensable reluctance, as for the other two hundred and twelve knights of the Warrior Knights, they were all sacrificed at any time in Augustus's eyes.

Unlike the expressionless Arista, Honan was probably the one who knew Augustus' thoughts at the moment, apart from Alista, among the members of the Knights of Warriors. For Augustus, he never had any hope, firstly, the clever knight from the Ionian Empire had already seen the cool nature of Augustus, and secondly, Huo Nan was born a pessimist, he never wanted to pin his hopes on anyone, and with the greatest malice, he speculated on others, this is the homework that this Equilibrium Sect monk used to do every day!

For those who don't care, this Noxian knight Augustus, who is accustomed to seeing life and death on the battlefield, and who is very rare in the history of the Noxian Empire, has obtained three iron oaks in a row, and nominally belongs to his loyal master, in Huo Nan's heart, as long as this master does not remember the person in his heart, he is dispensable and can be abandoned at any time!

And Huo Nan is not conceited enough to make this master with a thin and cool nature remember it! If Alista would be remembered by this cool master, he might only have three or four points of faith.

It wasn't a smooth journey from Noxus to Ferreljord over the Iron Ridge Mountains just over nine months ago! Twenty-three of the Knights of Warriors, who were supposed to have two hundred and fifty members, fell on their way across the Iron Ridge Mountains and were mercilessly assassinated! Even some people don't know how they died or why!

There are so many enemies in Noxus, and their assassination methods are too clean! One missed blow was far away, and after walking in the Iron Ridge Mountains for nearly half a month, the Warrior Knights were assassinated in twenty-three times. I have to admit that if it weren't for the indifferent and rational master Augustus in front of him, there would have been far more than 23 people who had been assassinated!

Recalling the bloody and tense scene at the beginning, even if he didn't pay attention to life, Yu Huo Nan couldn't help but tremble, not to mention the knights of the other warrior knights who still regarded the journey of the Iron Ridge Mountains as a nightmare trip to hell?

There was one thing that made Huo Nan feel worse than the danger he was about to face, the nominal master in front of him, Augustus, did not seem to intend to pay as much attention to the impending assassination as he did in Ferreljord, Huo Nan muttered to himself: What should happen to a pawn with no profit value? Throwing away is the best choice!

Huo Nan has always understood the thoughts and thoughts of this master, but today he understands a little, this knight with the envy and glory of many Noxian nobles may be trying to use the Noxian enemy to carry out a natural selection of survival of the fittest!

Brutal and full of blood!

Survival of the fittest, natural selection! This is the reason why Noxus stands tall on the continent of Valoran!
