After crossing the third checkpoint.

After a small half-day march, the camp of Noxus was finally in sight.

Facing the end of this could mean the entire war, and most likely even the key point to end the entire decade-long Ionian turmoil.

Countless Ionian soldiers showed excited expressions, and they rubbed their fists, and the swords in their hands seemed to be constantly buzzing in their sheaths to remind them, rush, rush.

It's all over.

The Noxians, on the other hand, were silent throughout their large camp, and the gates were closed.

Facing the oppressive Ionian army, no one had the intention of coming out to see.

The whole camp was silent, silent, and full of a strong intent to die, and there would be a smell of suffocation if you looked at it more.

If it weren't for the fact that the Noxians with cold expressions could still be seen standing on the watchtower at the camp gate, it would have been like a dead place.

"It's a little weird." Balzac looked at the Noxian stronghold, which looked like an empty camp, and frowned tightly.

The place felt so strange to him, and he felt a little stressed.

"It's weird." Karma, who was parallel to Balzac, also nodded, "I can feel an aura of destruction from inside, it's really ominous." ”

"Do you want to rush straight to the camp?" Irelia also drove over, and she was a little eager to try.

"No, let's wait for a while, set up camp and observe, the other party is too abnormal." Balzac was the first to object, saying that he was not a cowardly man, but that prudence was his usual style.

"Well, I also agree with General Balzac, let's set up camp first." On this matter, the commanders of the two armies reached an agreement.

After camping on the spot, neither commander strictly forbade his subordinates to act impulsively.

So when the smoke of the cooking rose in the Ionian coalition barracks. A large number of Ionians appeared in front of the military camp in Noxus.

For a time, all kinds of Ionian scolding were endless.

Noxus was surprisingly silent, and it was only when a few people got too close that a sparse rain of arrows came out of the Noxus camp as a warning.

They were in a state of being like a curled up quail.

There is no intention of fighting back at all.

After scolding for a while, the Ionians also felt bored, and slowly retreated.

After all, in the face of a guy who doesn't scold back, but just shrinks his head and doesn't speak. They really can't do anything about it.

Everyone returned to the camp to eat, and the atmosphere was hot for a while.

Because the Noxians have already made such a gesture, I think victory is not far away, right?

The meal took a long time, during which Balzac had been observing the Noxian barracks.

Of course, he would not be so stupid as not to arrange for elite soldiers to be on one side at any time to attack while he was eating, which was an old tactic used for thousands of years.

But the Noxians really felt as if they were dead, and they didn't move at all, and let them eat and rest.

Are they really sitting still?

At this time, even the experienced Balzac could not help but be suspicious.

For this reason, he went to discuss with Karma, but there was still no result.

In desperation. He could only go and ask Chen Senran.

But Chen Senran is still missing.

This is already I don't know how many times Chen Senran has replied like this, and there have been countless times along the way that Balzac wanted to see Chen Senran's thoughts.

But Chen Senran ignored everything as if to avoid suspicion, and just fell all the way to the rear army.

It's not like going out to fight, it's like coming out to play.

Regarding Chen Senran's eccentric attitude, Balzac also had no choice.

After inspecting a few defenses and ordering them to be on heightened guards, he returned to his tent in the camp of the Chinese army.

It was getting dark very quickly. The coalition troops, who had been on the road for a day, began to rest.

But Balzac couldn't sleep at all.

His nerves were still tense, and he was on guard against the most likely. Midnight raid on the camp.

He had prepared three thousand elites to lurk secretly, and as long as the other party dared to do so, it would definitely make them suffer hard.

But he was disappointed, but fortunately, the other party didn't make any moves all night.

Until dawn, Balzac looked at the silent enemy camp. He let out a long breath.

The weakest time of the coalition army has passed, and the fatigue of the long journey has been replenished by a night's rest.

As long as you wait a while to fight in front of the battle, the Ionian coalition army in good condition will definitely not lose.

Noxians, are you really going to throw in the towel?

Balzac's eyes were bloodshot. Looking at the lifeless Noxian camp in the morning light, his expression was inexplicable.

————————

On the sea.

Morning.

There was a lot of fog today.

On the vast sea, a white patch, far away, I couldn't see anything far away at all.

It's like a dream.

It was an incredibly bad weather for those who sailed.

But for Puerto Rico at the moment, it's like God is helping him.

"My lord, we are already very deep, do we still want to move forward? Even if it's foggy today, if we go too deep, we're likely to be surrounded. A competent subordinate came up to Puerto Rico's side and asked worriedly.

"Flynn, believe me, it's a good day for us." Puerto Rico just shook his head and said with a smile, "Trust me, everything will change from today." ”

"Yes...... My lord, I believe that we will make a great achievement, and when the time comes, you will surely be able to sit firmly in the first position of the military department, and when the time comes, ......," said the subordinate named Flynn with flattery.

"No, Flynn, you're looking too close, Navy, no, War, what's the point to me?" Puerto Rico still shook his head, "Flynn, you remember, a powerful minister who doesn't want to usurp the throne is not a good minister, we were born in such a big era, why should we live for others?" ”

"Your Excellency......" Flynn couldn't help but bow his head, his forehead starting to sweat a little.

Such rebellious words are almost treasonous.

Could it be that he wanted to......

"We are men who embrace the sea, why should we always be subservient to those armies, why should they look at us with pride? Just because they have an invincible general? Puerto Rico was excited, "No, I say no, Noxus, it's a glorious name, but if this glory can't be reflected in us, what are we going to defend for?" ”

These are already words that are close to the heart.

"Your Excellency......" Flynn was speechless, his whole body trembling with fear.

"Flynn, start a new era with me." Puerto Rico grabbed Flynn the shoulder with one hand, and grabbed the musket at his waist with the other.

"Yes, sir." Flynn suddenly stopped shaking, and his whole body suddenly erupted with a deadly momentum, "I do." He slammed his fist into his chest.

Wealth, danger seeks.

That moment.

The eyes of both men were furious, almost melting the dense fog around them.

That's ambition. (To be continued......)
