On October 15, 423 A.D. in the Noxian calendar, a pledge meeting was held in the inner city of the Immortal Fortress.

Surrounded by a sea of people outside the Conqueror's Square, everyone suppressed their excitement to witness the majestic and mighty Noxian warriors entering the square, whether it was a young child or a veteran of the war, everyone looked forward to it, eager to catch a glimpse of the supreme style of the Generalissimo of the Empire and the Imperial Legion.

As time passed, the commanders of the three major legions of the Noxian Empire and the fifteen independent warbands under the legion arrived one after another, and the commanders led some of the most elite soldiers under their command, waiting for the review of the supreme leader with solemn expressions.

In the midst of the crowd, a man wearing a dark red robe and black iron armor walked up to the high platform at the center of the square with a long sword at his waist, and the man's complexion reflected an abnormal white luster under the sun, it was Burnham Darkwell, the generalissimo of the Noxian Empire.

In the admiring gaze of everyone, Burnham Darkwell raised his right hand, and the square of nearly 10,000 people fell silent in an instant.

His eyes swept over the faces that were young, expectant, or crazy, and Burnham, who had seen all the living beings, took a deep breath and suppressed the Ji Ji in his heart.

He didn't know how many people would die in this war he started, and he didn't know if the enemies of Noxus would unite like the last pioneering war, he only knew that everyone who was proud of Noxus would not back down in the war.

For the Empire, this is enough.

Military Heart is available.

"Some people may wonder why we take the initiative to invade others, why every war is initiated by Noxus, why we Noxus can't be content with the status quo, maintain a rare peace, and live two days of hot kang with wives and children.

I know that most real Noxians don't have this kind of cowardly thinking, but I know that in the land of Noxus, such people are not a minority. ”

Burnham's voice was as loud as a bell, and even the outermost part of the square could hear it clearly, and in Noxus, it was a shame for a soldier to use magic to amplify his voice or with the help of some magical device when preaching.

For Burnham himself, he can't even let others hear his own voice, and if he is still a fart generalissimo, it is better to go home and feed himself to the pigs.

"I don't have any resentment against people who think this way, because I know that it's human nature, and it can't be avoided, even when I was a child, I thought so,

I used to be proud to have thought that Noxus would be out of danger and wouldn't let our warriors die on the battlefield, and I thought so, and I wanted to do it, but I couldn't.

Because I saw that the slave slaves on the southern Shurima continent were inferior to pigs and dogs, and were beaten and scolded, and their status was even inferior to the fat pigs in our pigsty.

Because I have heard the story of the Freljords of the north who starved to death in the snow and ice, and were killed by brutal beasts, and everyone had to fight to survive with all their might.

For I have witnessed that the wolf that does not grind his teeth and hunt in the hunting ground will eventually be trampled by the sturdy ram, and that not wanting to make progress is equivalent to weakness and deception.

If you don't do something, others will do it, and if you are not strong, others will be stronger than you!

I suddenly understood,

Now the peace of Noxus was bought by Noxus with bloody fangs and the sacrifice of warriors, not because other city-state forces love peace,

We can cultivate in the fields in peace, and enjoy the life of the sun rising and setting down, not because our enemies love us, but because they fear us!

If Noxus, which occupies fertile soil, loses its wolf-like fangs and wildness and becomes a lamb yearning for peace, it will be the day when the country will be ruined.

On that day, the Noxians will become the animals of the slave ship, our sons, daughters, and wives will be insulted and abused by the enemy, and our men will become bloodless cowards who can only sob,

When that day comes, even if the Noxians have the most wealth, the women of Noxus will flatter and humble their lowly bodies to take the initiative to meet those who are far inferior to Noxus, and the men of Noxus will not even dare to show their anger in the face of bullying, they can only look humble, like a dog animal that is raised by others,

The enemy will laugh and plunder everything we have, trample on our dignity as a matter of course, wear out our courage by all means, and make us slaves and slaves for generations to come!

I'm afraid, not afraid of death, but afraid that Noxus really ushered in that day,

Our warriors die on the battlefield, and more of them will stand up to fight the enemy, unless the enemy sets foot on our homeland territory and kills all the living creatures in the land of Noxus, or even a wild dog of Noxus will show its fangs to our enemies and leave them at peace forever!

There is only one circumstance in which Noxus will die completely, and that is that the Noxians have forgotten what glory is.

Everybody longs for peace, for a comfortable environment, because it means we don't have to take risks, we don't need to sacrifice, but can we really do that? Whitewash cowardice with a thirst for peace, meet cruel enemies with kindness,

Shall we throw away our feared sword and trade our kneeling knees and pleading for stability? ”

In the face of Burnham's rhetorical question, all the Noxians gave their answers hoarsely.

"Can't!

！ No!

！ No!

！ ”

Pleased with the anger and bloodiness on the faces of the crowd, Burnham raised his right hand and silenced the crowd's voices.

"Yes, we can't do this, we never will, and anyone who wants to do it is ruining the future of Noxus! This is a humiliation that we cannot even accept to die!

！ ”

"Now the land under our feet, eight hundred years ago, did not belong to Noxus, but to the Kingdom of Valoran, at that time, a terrible king rose from the steppes of the north, led his brutal army all the way south, like a guillotine knife to defeat the weak Kingdom of Valoran in an instant,

Absorbing the land and people of the Kingdom of Valoran, the king established an immortal fortress and a great empire with bloody and tyrannical means, the king used black magic to maintain a cruel rule for hundreds of years, as long as anyone dared to resist, the king would bloody everything he could see, in just a few hundred years, the population of the Valoran continent would not be one in ten!

In that dark age of corpses and blood, no one dared to raise the banner of resistance, and when everyone chose to kneel down as slaves, it was our ancestors Lockhee clan who threw away the hoe of their labor, raised the rotten sword, and fought against the king and his terrible army,

It was our ancestors who defeated the king and founded Noxus in the Immortal Fortress!

Only this kind of blood and courage can make Noxus stand proudly in the world!

Ladies and gentlemen! That's why we in Noxus are constantly fighting!

！

As long as Noxus is still around for a day! We're going to expand our territory!

As long as Noxus is still around for a day! We will never have peace!

We will pour blood into this land of glory and courage to make Noxus stronger! We won't stop until the end of the sun goes down and becomes the territory of the Empire, because at that time, the whole world will belong to Noxus! At that time, we had no enemies! At that time, it was the time for peace in Noxus!

！ ”

"There is no enemy and no self!

！ I'm invincible!

！ There is no enemy and no self!

！ I'm invincible!

！ ”

"Tell me!

！ What to do as a Noxian!

！ ”

Burnham pulled out his long sword with a sonorous sound, and the blade of the sword pointed straight at the sky, his eyes were like electricity, and his eyes were like knives.

"Kill!

！ Kill!

！ Kill!

！ ”

Ten thousand cold lights came out of the sheath at the same time, and the killing intent soared straight into the sky, killing more than a dozen southbound geese passing by in the air.

"All Imperial soldiers obey orders!

！ The whole army is on the march!

！ ”

……

Emerald Collar, Fidellett, Sheena rubbed her brows and looked at the long list in her hand, she didn't know if she didn't know it, she was startled when she saw it, although she had long known that the peaceful and rich Emerald Collar was prone to breeding moths, but she didn't know that there could be so many.

The pioneering war in Noxus had just begun, and these traitors could not wait to start transmitting key information to foreign countries, eating their home food but turning their elbows outward, more hateful than the enemy.

"Are these people all confirmed?"

"Master, we already have evidence of treason among these people."

In the shadows, a dark shadow knelt on one knee, his voice cold, waiting for the order of the Lord of the Emerald Lord.

"Then ...... Kill them all, don't leave any trouble. ”

After rechecking the list of deaths in her hand, Sheena casually threw the list in a wastepaper basket with coals, and used the burning flames to condemn dozens of people to death.

The names on the list and their families will leave this world forever after a public trial, and no one can be free from the crime of treason, and since they have enjoyed the favor, they will naturally have to bear the price of the favor, and the reason that the ignorant do not exaggerate does not apply when it comes to state affairs.

After the killer of the Night's Edge left, Xena picked up the Emerald Territory affairs on her desk and waited for her to make a decision.

The woman with neat short hair set her sights on the list of light sentinels who went to the Shadow Island this time, and she was more concerned about how much useful information could be brought back from the trip of the Emerald Territory's apprentices to the Shadow Island than the war between Noxus and the countries of the Southern Continent.

"The strength of the Shadow Island should not be underestimated, and the Emerald Collar must master enough sacred stone weapons to fight those ghosts,

Adam, the Holy Blacksmith of the Cult of Light, took Derek away this time, presumably by the time Derek returns from the Shadow Island, he will be able to master the method of crafting the Holy Stone weapon, so there is no need to rush this matter. ”

(Note: Derek Furtors is a descendant of Herris Vortors, whose Noxian name is Heristol, and [Furtors] is the name of the Freljord Furnace clan)

After confirming the list of the Emerald Leader's Light Sentinel Dispatch Trial, Sheena took another document, this document is the result of the second analysis of elemental magic, although there is an elemental magic codex given by Lyster that can be used to learn directly, but without the auxiliary effects of Vidalian and Ishtartar, the learning progress of the Emerald Leader mage on elemental magic is not ideal, and there is still a long way to go before the establishment of the elemental mage corps required by Lyster.

(Note: [Vidalian] is an elemental weaver of the core tower base in the city of Ishtar and Seookun, which is unique to Ishtar and is the treasure of the town).

"This can only be done slowly, and only when Xiaohua finishes her research on the Vidalian Loom can she simulate a similar thing to assist in the study of elemental magic."

(Note: Xiaohua is the head of the Shining Silver Mountain Underground Fortress who is responsible for researching ancient magic tools.)

After dealing with the many issues related to the development of the Emerald Collar, Sheena glanced up at the sky and found the person in charge of Operation Daybreak, who was the current leader of the Emerald Collar Timothy Steele.

Timothy, who has deep eyes, has a well-groomed beard on his chin, and the man has entered middle age, but Sheena can still see that the man was a girl killer when he was young.

As a descendant of Hiltaria and Goliath, Timothy's appearance inherited Hiltaria's heroic beauty, and his physique was inherited from Goliath.

"Your Lord."

Timothy got down on one knee and saluted respectfully.

"Timothy, how's the preparation going?"

"Because we forcibly evicted those stowaways, the royal family and the nobility of Leinland have been very dissatisfied with us, and after protesting to no avail, they said that we discriminated against them, and the Noxians living in Leinland have been attacked indiscriminately, and many of the victims are women who have voluntarily married to Leinland because of their opposition to discrimination, and the number of casualties is now about 300, and the victims have been brutally persecuted.

Since we have not taken any countermeasures, the turmoil in Leinland is intensifying, and the Leinlands have taken our forbearance as cowardice, and have begun to intensify the persecution of the local Noxians, and even the import of addicts at the border has begun to become frequent.

It's just that after hearing that Noxus has started a war against the countries of the Southern Continent recently, the actions of the Leinlands have been curtailed a lot. ”

With a little more smile on her face, Sheena shook her head.

"It doesn't hurt enough, whether it's us or them, it's not painful enough, recently the Emerald Leader has publicly dealt with a group of traitors, you go to Barnard and ask him to cooperate with you to mark a part of the traitors as murder, who are the murderers, I think you have a suitable target."

Timothy bowed his head solemnly.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it."
