The human city-state of Noxus, located in the far eastern center of the continent of Valoran, is a far cry from Demacia in terms of moral code. The city is unscrupulous in its pursuit of power, both materially and spiritually, regardless of the impact it has on others. In terms of the quality of the inhabitants of Noxus, they are basically supporters of this principle. It may seem brutal, but it's not just a sign of chaos. By human nature, Noxus is an orderly city-state that protects the situation from infringement... At least not from the same kind. In Noxus, however, the powerful are protected by the law's apparent favoritism.

The supreme political authority here is the Noxian High Command, which is also the country's highest military authority. In Noxus, the military controls every aspect of the political map; There is no clear dividing line between war and politics. The Supreme Commander of Eternal Youth, Burnham. General Darkwell has ruled Noxus for countless years, far exceeding the average lifespan of a normal human; Rumor has it that he only lived for so many years through necromancy. And considering that General Darkwell ruled the Supreme Command of Noxus before King Gavin III of Demacia, this rumor is somewhat credible.

Noxus is strange and frightening to outsiders in this land that does not welcome non-human creatures. The best outcome for non-human creatures is to be told unwelcome at the borders of the city-states. There are exceptions, but only to prove the creature's worth or awe (or both). Human visitors and immigrants are treated a little bit, and your worth and reverence are the keys to being accepted by Noxian society.

Residents of Noxus are required to serve in the military for 6 years, and all residents of appropriate age are actively in reserve. Even so, Noxus High Command still has the right to recruit any resident. Regardless of age. Those who actively participate in the military will be superior in Noxian society. The Noxian army was rarely short of men. Even if there was a forced exchange of peace agreements with the old enemy Demacia.

Noxus High Command has strategically chosen not to be an enemy of League of Legends. There is even some help for the activities of the Alliance, albeit reluctantly. Valoran's power brokers know that Noxus sees the situation clearly, and being an enemy of the Alliance, especially the huge Valoran coalition behind him, is tantamount to self-defeating for Noxus. And giving help to the alliance can achieve at least two purposes. For one, Noxus could make peace with Demacia to some extent. This allows Noxus to concentrate on conquering other regions. Second. Noxus can concentrate his vital magical geniuses in the Alliance to reserve victory in the battle against the Demacians. To this day, there is no end in sight to the endless war between Noxus and Demacia. The conquest between them is more carried out through agents in the Land of Justice, without having to pay a lot of human and material resources as before. While the enemy relaxed, the Noxian army was repaired.

Noxus is as dark and dangerous as its style. Cities are built on granite mountains, but some of the urban areas go underground. Buildings rise above the top of a mountain or go deep into the belly of a mountain. The formidable artificial moat outside the city is filled with the wicked, rancid potion of witches. The moat became the best barrier to keep the outside world out, leaving only a few heavily guarded checkpoints. Perched atop the hill is the headquarters of the Supreme Council of Noxus, which from a distance resembles a skull. Lying outside the walls are the poor (perhaps the lucky ones) who cannot live in the city.

The underground part of the city is almost as large as the aboveground part. Countless shops, pubs, and residential areas fill the dilapidated lower half of this notorious city-state. Noxus has the largest network of underground passages in the Runeterra, and countless Noxian nobles claim ownership of the numerous labyrinthine passages and underground chambers.

In the original book. General Darkwell eventually reaped his death, and his subordinate, the Strategist Commander Svein, was officially crowned General.

But this time, before the Great General Darkwell could date the Grim Reaper, the invasion of the Alien Plane had already arrived. This invasion from another world, although it completely disrupted the original balance of the Runeterras, and even brought a great burden to Noxus, but from another point of view, in fact, Duckwell should be grateful, it is precisely because of this invasion that he escaped the end of death.

The gossip is far away......

In short, Noxus is one of the most powerful forces in the Rune Continent, with more than a dozen heroes under it, and has more powerful combat power than Demacia, but in the face of the invasion of another world, even Noxus deeply feels powerless. So when the War College contacted the two sides in an attempt to establish a united front, Noxus chose to join almost without any hesitation. For neither Darkwell, nor his men, nor even the inhabitants of Noxus knew that union was necessary.

Fighting alone, no force is the opponent of the invaders, and most of the north has fallen in less than a month, such a fierce front is not possessed by any force in the Rune Continent, in other words, any force in the Rune Continent is also unable to resist such an attack. As a result, the joint formation, led by the War College, united the two strongest forces on the continent, Demacia and Noxus, to form a defensive line across the continent, blocking the footsteps of the invaders in the central region, so that the enemy could not step into the southern half of the road.

But now, the difficult balance has been broken again, a group of unknown enemies raided Demacia, the Demacians who had been resisting very hard, this time finally failed to hold their glory, and the enemy broke through the defense line continuously, of course, no one thought that Demacia would be a complete failure, everyone felt that even if they failed to resist the enemy at this time, as long as they were given time to rest, they still had a chance to counterattack, even the Noxians thought so.

But what no one expected was that the Demacians really failed, the enemy was stronger than they imagined, just a few hours, not only the outer city, but even the inner city was breached, this is not the end, what is even more terrifying is that the Demacian royal family. Even the slightest ability to resist was directly destroyed! Gawain IV was killed in battle. Govin III was also sentenced to death. This is definitely something that no one could have imagined.

At this moment, almost everyone understood that the enemy's strength was far beyond their imagination.

The high-level leaders of Noxus began to urgently discuss countermeasures, and they understood that this group of unknown enemies would definitely not have too little appetite, and since they had already eaten Demacia. There's no reason not to eat War College and Noxus, and with the fall of Demacia, there are already irreparable problems in the defense line, even if those unknown enemies don't do it anymore, just the invaders who are storming the defense line right now will be enough for them to drink.

Unfortunately, although they had tried to discuss countermeasures as quickly as possible, the enemy's pace was clearly faster than theirs. Before they could discuss one, two, three, four, five, the enemy had already arrived in the city.

……

Darkwell stood at the top of Noxus, looking condescendingly. The first thing you see is the sprawling city of Noxus. Then there were the inhabitants and generals of the city. This is all his power. In the distance, it is the enemy who suddenly comes to the door. Although the strength of the enemy has been overestimated as much as possible, the performance of the original invaders who quickly retreated without even daring to resist still proves the strength of this new group of enemies from another angle.

The battle lasted only ten minutes, and the main entrance of Noxus was already in jeopardy.

Darkwell wished he was in a dream now, and he didn't want to admit what he had seen. Who would have thought that there was such a powerful existence in the world, the combat effectiveness of every soldier of the enemy was close to that of heroes, and some squad leaders were even above heroes, and no one knew how strong the ten strong men flying in the sky were.

What Darkwell couldn't imagine was that the city defense, which he thought was already impregnable, would be in danger in less than ten minutes of the opponent's offensive, and the soldiers were retreating almost every second, and this war was completely unequal, so that they couldn't even stop. Because to stop is to die, and it is the kind of death that has no hope of winning at all.

Maybe the soldiers on the front line didn't feel anything, but Darkwell, who was standing on a high place and watching, deeply understood that Noxus was finished.

Just like Demacia, under the attack of this group of enemies, there is no resistance at all, and there is no room for resistance at all...... Finished.

The battle of Demacia lasted for nearly three hours, while the battle of Noxus only lasted for more than two hours before it ended, not that Noxus was not strong enough, nor that the Noxians did not have a strong will to resist, just because everyone in this country liked to obey the strong more than the Demacians. It's the same with these heroes who joined Noxus, because Noxus is strong enough, so they are willing to join Noxus.

Of course, Demacia is also very strong, but compared to Demacia's fanatical and old-fashioned atmosphere, they like Noxus's freedom and unfettered more, such an atmosphere cannot be said to be good, of course, it cannot be said to be bad, Noxus has always been stable, and there have been no major problems. It's just that when confronted with an enemy who is completely unable to resist, it is easier for people here to surrender.

However, this is not without benefits, at least Noxus will not suffer as much as Demacia, the royal family will be uprooted, and the national confidence will be completely destroyed. The Noxians, even if they lose, even if they surrender, their inner will will not collapse, it is just a change of ruler, and it will not be long before they can adjust their state and become a powerful force again.

From this point of view, Noxus is obviously better than Demacia, of course, this kind of thing is a matter of opinion, and the two sides can't say who is good and who is bad.

However, as far as the battlefield is concerned, Noxus obviously suffered less losses, except that the outer city has suffered some damage, and the inner city is relatively intact.

And the heroes also have few casualties, glorify the executioner. Delevingne, Hand of Noxus. Darius, the Commander of the Strategists. Svein, the god of war of the undead. Sain, Ominous Blade. Caterina, the Embrace of the Serpent. Cassiopeia, the Enchantress. LeBlanc, Shadow of the Blade. Tyrone, Crimson Reaper. Vladimir, Bloodthirsty Hunter. Warwick, The Daughter of Darkness. Annie and other resident heroes surrendered one by one, and some new heroes have been added recently, such as the rampaging Lori. Jinx, Darkspawn Sword Demon. Aatrox, the demon clown. Sacco and other heroes also fell into the pocket of the Broken Mask army.

The strength of the Face-Breaking Army is really incomprehensible compared to this world, and the strength of the Ten Blades that have not been liberated has surpassed them by a lot, once they return to the blade. That's completely crushing. Usually three or four heroes together are not a ten-bladed opponent after the sword. Actually, to talk about it. These heroes of this world are really of little use to Orson at this time, and as the world he enters becomes stronger and stronger, the strength of these heroes will become meaningless sooner or later.

He is a collector, and he always feels that since he has come here, there is no reason not to let these heroes not collect, and fortunately, the number of his soul cards is enough, let alone such a few worlds. It's dozens of worlds, hundreds of worlds, and as long as he wants, he can still continue to collect his favorite characters. It's just that as the number or intensity of the characters collected continues to increase, the source power consumed is also increasing, which requires him to non-stop raiding one world after another, otherwise his origin power will always be exhausted one day. Of course, it's okay not to charge characters at all, keep the current number, and if you don't collect characters in the future, the power of the source will not be over-consumed.

Anyway, it's up to him to make his own choice. Whether you want to increase the collection or reduce the burden, you have to continue to work hard to increase the collection. Lightening the load and stopping the collection is definitely a very good option.

The gossip is far away.

With the defeat of Noxus, the united front of the entire Rune Continent has been completely torn apart, and there is only one war college left, which will definitely not be able to resist the footsteps of the invading army. However, the Face-Breaking Army will not really send them to death, and of course it is not to save them, but the Face-Breaking Army itself has the orders given to them by Orson, and they also have to launch a full-scale attack on the invading army.

The content of the order was simple, not to kill people, let alone to defeat the other party, Orson only wanted to take all the heroes who had been captured from the hands of the invading army.

Because the invading army appeared in the north of the continent, the first city-state to be attacked was Piltover, which was taken without resistance at all, not without strength, but completely unprepared, and all the heroes of Picheng were also captured, which was the first large-scale capture of the invading army. The second city-state to be attacked was Zu'an, but because the invading army also didn't know the heroes of this city-state, they underestimated their actual combat effectiveness, coupled with the endless strange abilities of those heroes, as a result, Zu'an City was lucky not to be breached, but now the heroes there no longer exist, and all of them were collected by Orson.

And the third city-state to be attacked, and almost at the same time as Zaun, was Freljord.

Freljord is located in the permafrost tundra in the northwest of Valoran. In the early days, due to internal strife and its location on the frontier, the races living here did not like to interact with the outside world and lived alone.

Now, under the impetus of various factors and Noxus, they have become the eighth and newest city-state in the Valoran continent.

Freljord is the land of snow storms and a place of unforgiveness, with the mountains covered in snow and ice all year round. Freljord is located in the tundra region of the northern part of the Valoran continent, and it is very dangerous to travel here, especially in winter.

Here is the world's largest vortex of ice and snow, encircling the entire northern part of the continent.

The Freljords have endured years of war.

In this generation, the legendary three sisters led their respective tribes to fight, namely: Princess Mafula: the ascetic tribe of the Ice Dancing Monks; Princess Warney: The Winterclaw Tribe of Winter's Fury; Princess Ash: The Ice Shooter tribe of the Ice Shooters. The Freljords have been waging wars that they have forgotten their vows for. It was not until the death of Princess Mafula and the surrender of Princess Lissandro that Freljord ushered in the true ruler - Ash. Ash, queen of the northern Freeljords, and Tedamir, the king of the barbarian tribes who have migrated to the north, rule the land of ice and snow.

Princess Lisandro's surrender is the conspiracy of the Ice Witch, Lisandro was originally the name of the Ice Witch, she thinks the time is right to take back her own name, and the people of Freeljord have gradually forgotten about the Frost Watcher and the Ice Witch Lisandro over the centuries, and Lisandro wants to return the Frost Watchers beneath the Wailing Abyss.

The invading army had paid a high price here, the climate here made it difficult for them to walk, and the snowy mountain environment here made them much weaker, and if it weren't for their large number of men and the same surprise attack, Freljo Derby would not have fallen. But it's too late to say anything, Freljord has long since fallen, and all the heroes there have been captured.

They are Berserkers. Olaf, the king of the barbarians. Tedamir, Ice Shooter. Ash, Barrel. Gulagas, Snowman Rider. Nunu, Ice Crystal Phoenix. Avinia, Winter's Fury. Sejuani, Beast Spirit Walker. Udir, Frost Witch. Lisandro, the King of Trolls. The Heart of Trandel and Freljord. Bron and others, however, the barrel was not in his homeland before, and he was blocked in Demacia, where he was captured by the Broken Face Army.

In addition to him, there are two other heroes who have not been captured, one is the Frost Witch. Lisandro, who relied on her special skills to evade the pursuit in the snow and ice, managed to escape. And the other is the king of trolls. Trandel, it did not escape, and it was not taken prisoner, for it was dead. The fierce resistance angered the invading army, and after paying the price of hundreds of soldiers, as well as a squad leader and a squadron leader, the invading army gave up the capture of Trandel and directly relied on the powerful firepower of the mage army to kill him in an instant.

In other words, in the entire Freljord, there are only eight heroes who really fall into the hands of the invading army. (To be continued......)
