Chapter Fifty-Three: Rayser Guards
"Rush !!"
On the boundless wilderness, the rich smell of blood permeated. A one-sided massacre was underway, with mutilated corpses and broken equipment strewn across the ground.
In the middle of the battlefield, a giant man with an axe is the focus of everyone.
He was more than 4 meters tall, with a bare upper body, and he was rampage through a group of silver-armored soldiers, covered in blood of unknown origin, and the light faintly with runes flickered where the blood flowed.
He charged the enemy line unscrupulously, often splitting his opponent's armor in two with a single axe.
The warriors in black and green iron armor in the rear quickly advanced, slaughtering the silver-armored soldiers in cold blood.
After a while, the slaughter came to an end, and black and green became the main theme of the wilderness, and only a few pieces of broken silver armor could be seen on the ground.
The giant man stood on a dirt slope, raised his battle axe, and roared to the sky:
"Noxus!"
The black-green iron-armored legion was neatly united, striking shields with swords, and solemnly chanting under the leadership of a general:
"Noxus! Your Majesty Darkwell! β
After doing this, the general at the head stood beside the giant man and shouted:
"Pack up the battlefield and get ready to attack, Piltover!"
Wow!
The legionnaires in black and green iron armor below spread out in an orderly manner, skillfully shuttling across the battlefield, performing the victor's rituals.
"Piltover! No! War! β
The giant man slashed his tomahawk into the ground, his scarlet eyes staring at the general beside him, his muffled voice with resistance.
"Sain, there is no need for war there. Your Majesty told us to clear Zu'an and turn it into a wasteland. The general was expressionless.
"The breath of war! Zaun! β
Sain's crimson eyes were full of tyranny:
"Opponent! Powerful! Like! Weak! Boring! β
"Rest assured, Meredith has betrayed His Majesty and the Empire, he is a good opponent, and it is up to you to execute him."
When Ryan's name was mentioned, the general's original expression could no longer be restrained. Negative emotions such as jealousy, fear, and hatred took over his cheeks.
"Haha! Imistan! Coward! β
The giant man grinned, pulled out his bloody tomahawk from the ground, and ran forward without looking back, leaving the iron-faced General Imistan in place.
Imistan calmed his resentment for a moment, put on his iron helmet again, and covered his expression.
He raised the sword in his hand and hissed and shouted with all his might:
"Rayser guard, line up! Goal, Piltover! β
"Rayser!"
The legionnaires of the Lesser garrison assembled in a very short time, followed their general, and marched in the direction of Piltover.
......
"Can Imistan be the commander of the Rayser garrison? There really is no one around our Emperor Majesty. β
With a slight mockery on his face, Ryan brought the letter from the Immortal Citadel closer to the candle flame, and the flames spread across the paper, quickly burning it to ashes.
"Imistan... I heard that he is one of the top generals in the empire. Caterina stood in front of Ryan, her face hesitant.
"If you want to talk about war command, he can indeed rank in the top few. But that doesn't mean he's strong, the generals of Noxus are a bunch of reckless men. Except for Svein, there is no one with brains, including your father. Ryan shook his head, his face unconcerned.
Caterina looked strange, and after thinking about it carefully, she realized that it was indeed as Ryan said.
His father was a commander, but he also thought about the trick of assassinating the head of the enemy army.
In reality, the art of the Noxian War is only to charge, as long as the equipment is good enough, the strength is strong enough, and the personnel are enough, there is no battle that cannot be won.
But... She didn't think there was anything wrong with that.
The generals who were born into the nobility of Demacia not only practiced martial arts but also had to learn the art of war from an early age.
But what's the use?
Under the invincible offensive of Noxus, isn't it the lost armor that has been killed?
Therefore, only strength is the only element in the direction of the absolute war, and the rest is only a foil.
But this time, it was their turn to face the legions of Noxus, and it was still one of the most powerful legions of the Empire, the Resor Garrison.
Caterina hesitated for a moment, but still said what she thought:
"Will he be tricky with Lesser to garrison? If I need to, I can... Mobilize the power of some families. β
Ryan understood the other party's feelings, but still shook his head slightly and asked with a smile:
"Do you know how Imistan got to where he is today?"
"It is said that it was Ionia who made great achievements..."
Caterina frowned, and suddenly thought of the person in front of her, who had been the second commander of the Ionian front.
"Yes, we have taken credit for Darkwell's eradication of us, and then sold part of our army, which has barely achieved a worthy record. Otherwise, Darkwell would not have been able to promote him. Ryan spoke mockingly.
He and Svein fought for months with their elite in Presidian, while Imistan dragged the Empire's reinforcements for months. Although there are the handiwork of Darkwell and Lady Pale, I have to say that the other party is also a talent in terms of infighting.
They had expected the Empire's reaction when they led their troops to attack Presidium, but they did not expect that Darkwell would rather the Ionian front collapse than bury him and Svein in Presidium.
Of course, the main reason for the defeat was their carelessness. Unexpectedly, with the help of the blessing given by her homeland, that girl burst into a powerful battle in one fell swoop.
Otherwise, PrΓ©sidian would have belonged to the empire long ago.
"As for the Rayser guard," Ryan raised an eyebrow slightly, "it might be a little tricky if I meet them without warning in the wilderness. But now..."
The other party's words were not finished, but the meaning expressed was enough for Caterina to put down her hanging heart.
She had not seen the strength of the Rayser Garrison, which was claimed to be the strongest guard legion, but the Empire had always referred to the Rayser Garrison and the legion led by Svein as the Empire's strongest shield and sword.
In Katerina's mind, Ryan should be ready for anything, she just has to do what she is told.
Ryan smiled slightly, got up from his seat, and stood in front of the window.
His gaze was in Demacia's direction, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
From the border of Demacia to Piltover, the march of the Lesser garrison ranged from one month to forty days as slow.
It's really exciting! The time to return to the Immortal Fortress is coming soon.
"Katrin... Well? Looks like something unusual is going to happen tonight. β
Ryan didn't finish speaking, looking at the border river between Zaan and Piltover, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He thought that the two girls would have to wait for a while to cross the river, but he didn't expect it to be today.
Originally, he wanted Caterina to help him run to the Immortal Fortress, but now he changed his mind:
"Katarina, go to the river to protect our soul singers, and remember to strike at the right time."
As Ryan spoke, a sparrow made of water condensed in his hand, fluttered its wings, and flew in the direction of the Empire's immortal fortress instead of Katarina.
"Understood!"
Caterina bowed slightly, and her figure disappeared in an instant.
She understood what Ryan meant, and for a simple girl to approve of Noxus's ideas, she had to understand her own weakness.
It's like herself in the past, who doesn't complete the first task, and never understands how ignorant she is.
