The army stood in the col, its inky black armor blending perfectly into the dim night sky, standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, but unable to find the lurking army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the army has not been launched, there is a terrifying dull momentum brewing, like the prelude to a storm, which makes people feel depressed.

The surrounding mountains were deadly silent, and even the insects that should have filled the countryside were gone.

"Hey, I haven't broken through the defensive magic array of the Drum Mountain Fortress yet." Pandora looked at the Noxian army lurking outside the fortress of Drum Mountain, and her delicate pretty face showed a look of doubt.

Using the magic array he left on the Drum Mountain Fortress as a guide, the formation mage of Noxus should have already cracked the magic circle. Those are all old antiques that were eliminated more than 100 years ago, why haven't there been any movement until now?

Thousands of miles away, Drum Mountain Fortress.

Not far from the east gate of the Drum Mountain Fortress, there is a tall observation tower.

The observation tower is cylindrical, and the whole is snow-white, which looks like a warm jade. It is built on a cliff next to the fortress, like a lighthouse standing proudly on a high mountain.

Although the observation tower is only ten zhang high, it is built on the top of the mountain, and you can overlook the entire Gushan fortress by standing on it.

If you look into the distance during the day, you can see movement within a radius of more than ten miles.

At this time, on the tall lighthouse, Zhao Hu and Zhao Gao stood side by side, looking at the world as black as ink outside the fortress.

Zhao Huguo's face, his eyes are blazing, like two unsheathed divine soldiers, which makes people dare not look directly.

He was dressed in silver full-body armor, and his right hand held a long sword three feet long and one and a half inches wide, and his face was extremely solemn.

Zhao Gao was dressed in a robe with red stripes on a black background, his face was as white as white paper, and his eyes were as sharp as snakes, which made people shudder.

Zhao Gao put his hands in front of him, glanced at Zhao Hu beside him, and asked sharply in his voice: "The Grand Duke ordered us to attack the camp, why is General Zhao still hesitating here?" ”

Zhao Hu's face was solemn, his eyes constricted as he stared at the dark night outside the fortress, and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Neizhi uses his spirit to explore the scene outside the Gushan Fortress, I don't know how he feels?" ”

"If you are in a fog, you can't perceive anything at all." Zhao Gao groaned for two breaths, his eyes flashing with a terrifying essence, as if two sword lights pierced the void, and his voice was a little dignified.

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he achieved the Yuan Shen. The mind is separated from the body, but it is completely unable to perceive everything in the outside world, as if it is blocked by something.

"This is the Fog of War of Noxus, a formation specially designed to prevent the opponent's magic detection, as well as the divine thoughts of the powerful above the legendary. In the fog of war, no one can probe the situation except for special treasures. Zhao Hu's face was solemn, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he explained in a heavy voice.

As he spoke, he paused for two breaths, as if thinking about how to explain the problem to Zhao Gao.

"With the strength comparison between Noxus and Chang'an City, it stands to reason that there is no need for the other party to arrange the fog of war. Because if there were no accidents, Chang'an City would not be able to detect Noxus's actions at all, let alone attack it out of the city. ”

However, in the face of such a clear situation, Noxus still laid out a vast fog of war, covering a radius of hundreds of miles. If this is the case alone, it can only show that Noxus is careful, but the other party's envoy's behavior is sneaky, but it is a little ominous. ”

Zhao Hu's face was heavy, and his eyes flashed with a terrifying essence, as if the sun was shining on the earth.

When Zhao Gao heard this, his face showed a thoughtful look, his eyes stared at the mountain range where he couldn't see his fingers, and his eyes flashed with contemplation.

He was silent for a moment before speaking, "What General Zhao means, Noxus may raid the Drum Mountain Fortress tonight. ”

"No, they're already here." Zhao Hu's right hand clenched the hilt of the sword, and the green tendons on his hand jumped. He stared at the mountains in the distance like a dragon lying prone, his face was solemn, and his voice was firm.

"This mountain forest is too quiet." When Zhao Gao heard this, a sneer appeared on his face, and his hands flicked his ten fingers like jade sharpening, and said with a smile.

Zhao Gao didn't think too much about it because he had a limited understanding of Valoran before. At this time, when I heard Zhao Hu's explanation, I immediately understood.

After all, he had a background in intelligence, and his senses were extremely keen. Although Zhao Hu didn't explain, where he felt the problem, Zhao Gao himself had already guessed it.

"Zhao Nei is a keen observer." When Zhao Hu heard this, his face was slightly stunned, and his eyes flashed with appreciation.

Before I can explain it, the other party has already found the problem, and this insight is not simple.

Zhao Hu's thoughts turned in his heart, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Gao.

Until now, he didn't know the origin of Zhao Gao and others. I only know that they are powerful, but I don't have a specific concept.

It's not that Zhao Hu didn't want to ask, but Mo Chen didn't speak, which made him always hesitate in his heart.

"What does the general think we should do now?" Zhao Gao's face was calm, and his eyes were full of light, like a divine soldier hidden in the scabbard, waiting for the opportunity of Guanghan Kyushu.

"Wait, if Noxus wants to raid the Drum Mountain Fortress, the first thing to solve is the defense circle of the Drum Mountain Fortress. I have ordered people to strictly inspect the nodes of the defensive circle, and I believe that news will come soon. Zhao Hu's face was calm and deep, and his voice was firm.

After Zhao Hu finished speaking, the watchtower suddenly fell silent, leaving only the whistling mountain wind blowing from the watchtower, blowing Zhao Gao's clothes and hunting.

Half an hour later, a rush of footsteps came from under the watchtower.

"General, something is wrong. Someone is using unknown means to invade our defenses. We've never seen that before, and we haven't thought of a way to resist it yet. But if the other party is allowed to continue, at most a quarter of an hour's effort, the defensive circle of the Drum Mountain Fortress will be broken by the opponent. With the sound of hurried footsteps, a middle-aged mage dressed in a blue ** law robe said hurriedly.

When Zhao Hu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, like a divine soldier suddenly out of the sheath, making people dare not look at him.

"Since you can't resist it, let the other party invade." He gripped the hilt of his sword with his big hand, a faint smile on his face, and chuckled.

After waiting for so long, I was finally able to confirm the news of the other party.

If there is a problem with the defensive circle of the Drum Mountain Fortress, it can completely indicate that the opponent has come to the vicinity of the Drum Mountain Fortress and is ready to surprise at any time.

The middle-aged mage's face was stunned, and he looked at Zhao Hu in disbelief.

He didn't understand why Zhao Hu would give such an order. If the other party is allowed to continue to invade, won't the Drum Mountain Fortress be lost?

The middle-aged man's face was suddenly full of urgency, but he wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

Even if you want to stop it, you can't do it. At this time, what else can you do but let the other party invade?

Zhao Hu ignored the middle-aged mage's doubts and anxiety, looked sideways at Zhao Gao who had a smile on his face, and chuckled: "Of the 100,000 troops attacked by Noxus this time, only some of them are the people of Noxus' headquarters, and most of the others are from the four cities of Dongtu. ”

"With Cassiopeia's importance to Chang'an, and the distrust of the other four cities of the East and the Earth. This raid on the Drum Mountain Fortress will inevitably be dominated by the military horses of Noxus' headquarters. Noxus is brave and good at fighting, I don't know if Zhao Neishou is sure to leave them all in the Drum Mountain Fortress! ”

Zhao Hu said that the smile on his face was retracted, and it was a little colder. His voice was calm. It's as if it's not the elite army of Noxus, it's a swarm of ants.

"The Grand Duke instructed the slaves and maids to obey the orders of the general. Since the general said it, how could Zhao Gao refuse. Zhao Gao said seriously with a relaxed smile on his face.

With all kinds of war puppets exchanged from the main god, Zhao Gao has an absolute grasp of dealing with the elite cavalry of Noxus.

"I don't know if the general wants to deal with them outside the Gushan Fortress, or put them in the fortress to deal with them." Zhao Gao pondered for two breaths, looked at Zhao Hu with a serious face and asked.

"After today, Chang'an City no longer needs the Drum Mountain Fortress. Those elite cavalry of Noxus are a scourge after all. Only a dead Noxian warrior is the best warrior, isn't it? Zhao Hu's eyes flashed with a chilling glow, and he said in a flat voice.

The Noxian army is known for its bravery in Valoran, and once they escape from this trap, it is very likely to affect the Grand Duke's next plans.

The best way now is to kill all the Noxian warriors, so as to prevent future troubles!

"Zhao Gao knew what to do." The smile on Zhao Gao's face remained unchanged, and he bowed in response.

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he jumped down from the tower, like floating clouds, and like a wisp of breeze without the slightest trace, towards the Drum Mountain Fortress below.

Zhao Hu looked at his light and agile figure, and his brows furrowed tightly.

This method is completely the secret method of the Dongtu clan, but why have I never seen it. Where did they come from, and what secrets did the Grand Duke hide?

Zhao Hu thought of the dozen or so guards who had suddenly become legends, and took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little more dazed in his heart.

If the old duke sees the young master's achievements now, he doesn't know if he will be very pleased.

Perhaps, the young master can really fulfill the old duke's wish and become the supreme king who dominates the eastern lands!

Zhao Hu thought of Mo Chen's unfathomable cultivation and the sudden extra masters around him, and his heart was both a little relieved and a little lost.

Alas, that thing, maybe I should let the young master know.

With the young master's current strength, it should help him. Although the old duke explained that he would wait until he was twenty years old before handing it over to him, the old duke was afraid that he would not expect the young master to have such an achievement, right?

Zhao Hu sighed lightly, thinking of the old duke's explanation before his death, he hesitated a little more in his heart.

Is it really necessary to rigidly abide by the promise of twenty years old? (To be continued.) )
