Chapter354 Emerald Collar's new troops

The carriage stopped at the entrance to Black Thorn Rose Street, and Rose, who stepped out of the carriage, froze in place.

A familiar and unfamiliar figure stood at the entrance of the mansion, staring at his home.

"Home?"

The corners of her mouth unconsciously added a smile, but the female mage in charge of driving was shocked, she hadn't seen such an expression on her mistress's face for a long time.

In fact, she longed for her hostess to have this expression every day, which would make her much less stressed.

"Lord Rose? Is there anything else that needs to be told? ”

"It's okay, you can go...... By the way, tell the others that no matter what happens today, don't bother me. ”

"Yes."

The closer she got to the other party, the faster Rose's heart beat and her heavy steps became much lighter, and after five years of not seeing each other, she found that instead of feeling alienated, she found the sense of ease that she had just gotten along.

In fact, she hates this irrational state, but at the moment she is willing to make herself a little more emotional.

Slowing down and standing on tiptoe, the female mage did not have the usual solemnity and majesty, tiptoeing like a squirrel ready to steal pine cones.

Reaching the nearest distance, the female mage slapped the man's right shoulder with the joy of victory as she held out her right hand before the man could even notice it.

"Hey~ Why are you like a nerd here?"

The playful female mage asked silly questions.

The man turned around and saw that the female mage was stunned for a moment, then took a step back apologetically and responded politely.

"Ah, hello lady, I think this house is quite familiar, so I took a few more looks, sorry, is this your home?"

The familiar face said something that was so strange that it was chilling, Rose took a step back in confusion, the smile on her face quickly retracted, and looked at the man again with vigilance, and the female mage lowered her voice.

"Who are you? What do you want to do here? ”

"My name is Lystor, I'm from Ionia, I'm here to see the greatness of the Immortal Fortress, it's a pleasure to meet you, lady, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving."

The man's complexion is very soft, but it is also soft to strangers, and such politeness is very hurtful to acquaintances.

Looking at the man's non-fake expression, Rose only felt a tearing pain in her heart.

She couldn't tell if the man was acting or if he really had amnesia, she just knew that she hated it.

She originally thought that the relationship between herself and the man was maintained in the pleasure of the flesh, but now she understood that some things were not what she took for granted.

Wanting to say a please, she opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't squeeze out half a word, and when she tried to make herself look at the man again, her gaze was already blurred.

Rubbing the corners of her eyes, she hadn't felt such embarrassment for a long time.

"You ......"

"Rose, I miss you so much, but I don't know if you miss me too, but now I have an answer in my heart, sure enough, we are destined to be separated, I'm sorry, I made you cry as soon as we met, I'm a bastard."

Embraced by the man, the female mage's heart trembled and she buried her head in the man's arms.

"You ...... The big liar...... I don't want to forgive you......"

Watching the man pick up the terrible Lady Rose like a kitten and walk into the mansion, the nearby black rose mages all gave the man a thumbs up.

"It's good to want to catch the old with one hand, and it's good to hide from the world with the other hand......"

"It's worthy of Lord Lyster, in this world, I'm afraid only Lord Lyster can suppress Ms. Rose......"

"Come on, Lord Lyster! It's better to let Ms. Rose not get out of bed for a month, and she will be scared to death with a calm face all day long......"

……

After some heartfelt complaints and lingering sympathy, the time has come to the middle of the night.

Lying in the man's arms, staring at the ceiling with a blurred gaze, the female mage still reminisced about the satisfaction she had not experienced in a long time.

The ontological thinking was a little sluggish, and Rose beat her spirits and finally asked the question she had wanted to say for a long time.

"How did you manage to hide your whereabouts in Ionia?"

"It's very simple, change an identity that you would never have imagined, I know that the people of Black Rose and Night's Edge are looking for me, and it is very easy to avoid you."

"You've been gone for more than five years, are you really not worried about what will happen to your jade collar?"

Shaking his head, Lyist's hand ran across the swan-like neck of the female mage, leaving it at the place of the collarbone to linger, making the female mage's breathing become rapid again.

In Rose's body, his favorite position is here, and this is also Rose's sensitive point.

"As long as Misha and Sheena are here, as long as the blade of the night is still there, no one can subvert the existing system of the Emerald Collar, if more than five years can expose the Emerald Collar's own fragility and flaws, then I can just make up for it when I come back, what I want is a powerful force that can develop steadily, not a mirror that will collapse without me, in fact, Margaret They did not disappoint me, the strong mother of the Emerald Collar is undoubted...... In addition to minting issued gold coins. ”

"Gold?"

The tingling sensation from her body made Rose's voice tremble a little.

"That's right, it's the gold coin, when I left, I told them not to leave my portrait on the gold coin, but they still did it, although there were some minor changes, but it still disobeyed my orders, I think someone should give me an explanation in this matter, if someone forgets who single-handedly established the Emerald Collar, then I don't mind helping him remember how I treated enemies and traitors."

The man's serious voice surprised Rose.

"Lyist, you've grown again."

"As long as you are not hopelessly stupid, you should continue to grow over the years, but unfortunately, sometimes the price paid for growth is too great......"

"Looks like you've been through a lot of Ionia this trip?"

"It's you, my little rose, you don't seem to have changed, maybe you have something to hide from me now, but I'm willing to believe in you, and I'm willing to give you time to really trust me, Rose, intrigue can indeed make you do a lot of things, but there are also many things you can't do, for the really difficult enemy, using tactics is a trail after all, and finding some trustworthy companions to face difficulties together is the best choice."

The sudden silence made the atmosphere in the room a little weird, and in the face of the man's temptation, the woman chose to divert the topic, which disappointed the man.

Clearly, LeBlanc is not ready for a showdown.

But then again, it's a bit impractical to change a black witch who has lived for more than 500 years in a few words.

"Speaking of change, Lyster, it seems that your appearance has not changed, and the years have left too few marks on your face......

Do you know? How cruel is it for a woman to watch herself grow old day by day, while the face of her loved one remains forever? I only met Margaret and them some time ago, except for your two little angels and Tali, who studied magic and used alchemy potions to maintain her appearance, everyone else has become a yellow-faced woman, I'm afraid to see you like this......"

"Rose, if they really love me, they will be happy for me."

“……”

"Don't talk about that, there's still some time before dawn, and we shouldn't waste it."

Sitting up from the bed, Rose's gaze was a little complicated.

"So, you're leaving at dawn?"

Nodding, Lyist hugged the female mage.

"At Margaret's speed, it should be almost the Gorrell Mountains by now, and after being missing for so many years, after all, we still need to see with our own eyes what the Emerald Leader's army has developed."

……

On the west side of the Gorrell Mountains, an army of 10,000 men was moving north like a tidal wave, passing through several panicked villages, and as a magical bird flew into the hands of the Black Rose Mage, Margaret on a thoroughbred horse received the latest news from the Immortal Fortress's High Command.

The reason why it is not an order is because although the Emerald Collar is subordinate to Noxus, it has absolute autonomy, and even the High Command is not qualified to give orders.

The male mage in charge of delivering the message quickly approached Margaret on horseback.

"Say."

"Legion Leader, the Supreme Command of the Immortal Fortress said that they will deal with the Heidi people going south, so let's ignore those miscellaneous people and go to the Snow Fortress as originally planned."

"Heh, it's kind of a bit backbone."

On top of the silver-gray horse armor sat a tall woman wearing a heavy armor and a flame-shaped sword in both hands, none other than Margaret, who commanded the army.

Unlike the previous [Black Guard], which was a little bulky, difficult to wear, and had a lot of consumables, it applied the protective magic researched by the chipmunk and other mages, and the new magic steel plate armor made of different metal ratios and magic materials has lighter weight and better protection, and its resistance to magic has also been greatly enhanced.

Reducing weight made it possible for hoplites to mount their horses and become hoplite knights.

The new armor was named [Dark-Blooded Raven] by the old blacksmith Heristol, inheriting the dark and heavy style of the old-time-old Black Guard, and the Dark-blooded Raven with a dark blood light looks like it has a strong sense of oppression.

It's a pity that because the casting materials are too rare, even the wealthy jade collar is only a dozen sets, and after being distributed to the corps commander and deputy corps commander, there is not much left, and the rest are handed over to special battle array talents.

As for the most powerful [Blood Knight] Demon Steel Plate Armor, there is only one set of the entire Emerald Collar, and no one can afford such weight and glory except for the powerful Demon Lord.

"Report to Legionnaire! Lord Hiltaria has confirmed that there is no sign of the enemy between the mountains within ten kilometers ahead! ”

As soon as the communication mage left, the Scout Cavalry came to Margaret against the flow of people.

"Keep probing the enemy's tracks!"

"Yes!"

Margaret still values the talents chosen by her followers and her husband Lyster.

The commander of the reconnaissance cavalry squad is the son of sin Hiltaria, who was born in the Bloody Amber Garden, as an outstanding talent in the Bloody Amber Courtyard in addition to personal combat effectiveness, all assessments are the first, Hiltaria joined the Black Iron Guard as she wished, and the twelve years of military career have made the nineteen-year-old girl afford many heavy responsibilities, and this military trip is a good opportunity to gain military exploits.

In Margaret's view, even a rare general must personally go to the front line to kill the enemy in order to grow, and no matter how powerful the general is in the rear, he is just a soldier on paper, absolutely unbearable.

Only the generals who killed in the sea of corpses and blood would understand the preciousness of soldiers' lives, this is the truth that Lyster taught Margaret, and Margaret has long decided to pass on this rule in the Emerald Territory forever.

In order to support the Snow Fortress, aside from the more than 20,000 logistics corps, this time the Emerald Leader dispatched a total of 15,000 soldiers, in addition to the regular legion [Noxus Black Iron Guard], there are also many special legions, including: heavy infantry [Noxus Black Guard], elite crossbowmen [Darkblood Crossbowmen], siege troops [shield bow crossbowmen], mage troops [Black Lightning], anti-cavalry troops [Bloodthirsty Executioner] and the [Dragon Lizard Knight] who went to the battlefield for the first time as a test force.

There are about 600 people in the army, and the carriage carries ten immortal shield bows made of magic steel and hundreds of special crossbow arrows, including the magic steel crossbow used in the siege and the alchemy crossbow used to kill and wound people.

There are about 300 people in total, and the source of the soldiers comes from the tall death row prisoners who have won more than five consecutive victories in the Emerald Collegiatorial Arena, and each of the battle-hardened prisoners has been cursed by the cursed mage of the Black Rose.

The special magic equipment on his body is enough to give the executioner the courage to charge back at the cavalry, in fact, even the most brave cavalry will choose to retreat in the face of the two-meter-long enchanted double-edged axe.

The number of [Dragon Lizard Knights] is around two hundred, and after years of careful domestication and cultivation, the wild dragon lizards in the Quiet Forest have been initially domesticated and equipped into troops.

Unlike his small, distant cousin, Sgar, each dragon lizard is as indestructible as a small tank.

With a weight of about one to two tons and invulnerable scales, it is enough to make most attacks useless, and coupled with the spiked iron armor specially created for each dragon lizard by the Emerald Leader War Workshop to protect the vital points of the body and enhance the lethality of the impact, even the elite Black Guard has to admit that even if he has twice the number of dragon knights, confronting the dragon knight head-on will only become a puddle of meat at the dragonlizard's feet, and there will be no second result.

The dragon lizard under the crotch is terrifying, and the knight on the back of the dragon lizard is even more formidable, the knight in fine iron plate armor carries three weapons, a giant cavalry lance, a one-handed saber and a mechanical crossbow, and the reason why there is no black guard made of magic steel is because the Emerald Collar does not have many orichals ingots.

Two meters and five long, more than seventy pounds of fine iron cavalry lance can not be held by hand at all, even if carefully selected, the powerful knight must also erect the cavalry spear on the right side of the dragon lizard's neck, and the dragon lizard's spiked helmet is placed side by side to become a sharp knife that tears through the enemy's line,

The deliberately lengthened hilt of the sword is to facilitate the pursuit of fleeing enemies, and the mechanical crossbow made of pulleys makes up for the shortcomings of the dragon knight's slow charge speed and short attack range, even in the face of cavalry coming and going like the wind, the dragon knight can use the mechanical crossbow to shoot the enemy through the horse, avoiding the end of being killed by guerrillas.
