Lizard Terry Territory.

By the time Jarvin IV and the others returned, the fires that had burned on the land had been extinguished, but black smoke was still rising from the ruins, telling of what had happened here.

After the war, the lizard tribe looked in shambles, and when they walked on the road, they could still smell the smell of blood remaining in the air.

The surviving lizardmen sat there with desperate and sad expressions, choking and crying from the less than a hundred people.

On the other side, there is a corpse, a dead lizard companion.

Even though the Noxus warband of thousands of people was repulsed, no one could be happy in this situation.

Rao is Jiawen IV on the way back, he has already controlled his mentality and suppressed his anger.

He knew that in war, anger should not be controlled.

However, the moment this scene appeared in his eyes, his heart still burned uncontrollably with anger.

His ten fingers clenched, knuckles strained to the point of whitening.

These lizard-people have lived in this place for generations, and they have never taken the initiative to provoke anyone, and they have done nothing wrong, yearning for peace and fighting with the world.

However, such an innocent tribe was slaughtered on this day.

Even, the same encounter with the lizardmen has happened countless times.

Looking at those weeping and sad eyes, Jiawen IV didn't even know how to comfort him.

Now, what should he comfort them?

Now, he should think more about how to drive those invaders out of this land.

He summoned two lieutenants and began to discuss.

Two options were in front of him.

One, continue to attack Trewell, but at great risk.

Second, return to the gate of sorrow.

After some thought, Jiawen IV knew that no matter which of these two options was made, it would require a cohesive force and could not be dispersed like now.

Looking up, the sky was already dark, and Jiawen IV immediately made a decision: "Everyone, prepare to go." ”

The territory of the lizards is no longer suitable for long, and those surviving Noxian deserters are likely to attract more enemies.

They must take the rest of the lizard-people and leave as soon as the night falls.

After only a short while, including the corpses of the lizardmen, they were also brought along, and the troops turned around and set off in one direction without stopping.

In the wee hours of the morning.

Located on the other side of the Shining Silver Mountains.

On the high seat, a tall figure has deep eyes, and his fingers are rhythmically tapping on the seat, making a "tuk tuk" sound, as if he is waiting for something.

Soon, a messenger ran in and knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Excellency, Hinton's war regiment has suffered heavy casualties, and only nine hundred and twenty-three people remain. And the enemy pursued only halfway, and our ambush failed. ”

The sound of banging on the seat suddenly stopped.

"You say, they didn't chase after them?"

Patria rose from her high seat, her eyes a little more gloomy.

"Yes, General."

The messenger replied, "And, they have withdrawn from the Lizard-Ran territory. ”

Patria's gaze crossed the hall to the other side of the Shimmering Silver Mountains, a little more puzzled.

I didn't catch up.

Could it be that Demacia doesn't even have the most basic blood?

In this way, the ambush he set up in advance was useless.

If the prince can be captured alive, it will be a great achievement, and his prestige and status will be raised to a higher level.

Today, however, all this is empty talk.

He was always a little puzzled, why the prince would give up chasing the enemy, obviously it was just a remnant of the defeated army, and it was clear that as long as he chased a little further, he could drive these people away.

Now this has made him lose a war group of several thousand people in vain, which can be said to be a big loss.

After thinking for a few seconds with gloomy eyes, the entire hall was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.

After half a ring, Patria ordered in a deep voice: "There is no need to waste time here, inform me, prepare to leave, and gather all the people at the Gate of Sorrow." ”

At this point, it is not so easy to capture the prince alive.

At this moment, the only way to defend the broken door of sorrow will also be a great military feat.

Later, Patria said, "Also, send a message to the Grand Commander, report the matter to him, and ask him for his next instructions." ”

"Yes!"

The messengers in the audience responded to the order.

Patria watched him turn and run out, slowly sitting back on his high seat.

This time, the Grand Commander suddenly ordered a rapid attack, asking them to quickly take the Gate of Sorrow, a decision that surprised many people.

After many years, is Darkwell ready to go to war with Demacia again?

But the problem is that now Noxus still has some troops and is attacking the Ionian continent.

The resistance of the aborigines of that continent has been unexpectedly fierce, and it has been so long that Noxus has invested no amount of troops into it, but it has not yet been taken.

Even the celebrity who lived in the saga, Svein led the army, seemed unable to go any further.

While the two sides were at a stalemate, Darkwell suddenly split up a part of his forces and turned around to attack the Gate of Sorrow.

It is equivalent to going to war with two places at the same time.

Although it is not impossible, after all, Noxus does have the capital to do this.

But in the eyes of many, this is completely unnecessary.

Not to mention, in autumn and winter, those tribes in the icy land of the north also began to sweep the borders of Noxus, and those difficult tribes were not soft persimmons.

Although Demacia also faced the same situation.

Many people thought that Darkwell's decision was not wise, but he still stepped forward to take over the task of the Grand Commander.

After all, who would give up this low-hanging fruit of military merit.

As the heir to the Teyin family, he was born with something that no one else might be able to have in his lifetime, which also gave him unparalleled self-confidence.

This time, he also wanted to test the ingredients of Demacia.

At this time, another soldier from outside ran in, knelt down on one knee and said, "General, the southern hundred-man regiment has been attacked, this is the third similar incident in these days. ”

When Patria heard this, he asked aloud, "Who attacked it?" ”

The soldier lowered his head and said, "It seems. There was only one person, and according to the surviving eyeliner, the other party was a purple-skinned elemental mage. ”

"Elemental Mage." Patria thought for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Do you still have to report this kind of thing to me, send more people to solve her." ”

"Yes!"

The soldier answered and took the order.

November 25th.

Located in the heart of Noxus, the capital, the monumental fortress.

This was once a fortress of a powerful being, and even to this day, few people dare to say that powerful name.

And as the empire expanded for thousands of years, the capital of the empire continued to grow in the shadow of this fortress.

Today, it is a capital city that covers a very large area, and all kinds of people come from all over the world.

It is a treasure land full of wealth and glory, and if you have great power, you can have it all here.

It doesn't matter what your previous identity was.

Under the solemn architectural style of this capital, the streets are narrow and claustrophobic, the eaves are walled, and the city gates are majestic and grand, so it can be said that there is a certain sense of oppression in the prosperity.

And in the midst of the highest fortress in this Xiongdu.

On top of the throne coveted by countless people, the ruler of Noxus, Bron-Darkwell, sat on it with a blank face.

He exuded a powerful aura like Wang Wei all over his body, and everyone below him was quiet.

After reading the letter from the west in his hand, Darkwell casually threw it aside, and said in a loud voice: "Send a message to Patelia and tell him to guard the door of sorrow, and as for the rest, let him take care of it himself." ”

"Yes!" Immediately, one of them left.

Immediately, Darkwell looked down and said, "Do you have anything else to report?" ”

One of them stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, those tribes on the northern border have attacked our three cities and robbed us of a lot of resources, so we should deal with them as soon as possible." ”

Darkwell frowned slightly when he heard this: "What is Darius doing?" ”

The man immediately replied, "General Darius is now heading north to fight a tribe called the Claws of Winter, and the two sides are in a stalemate, and I am afraid that they will not be able to escape. ”

Darkwell thought for a moment and said, "Send a message to Darius, I want him to double the looted supplies in the future, and add more men to deal with those tribes." ”

"Yes." Another man took the command.

No one doubted that the being who had been dubbed the 'Hand of Noxus' would not be able to fulfill Darkwell's orders.

"What else?"

Darkwell then continued.

Another person walked out and bowed his head and reported: "Your Majesty, General Du Kecao has been missing for more than a month, and there is no clue so far. At present, the Assassin Association has no leader, and those Assassins have begun to take orders privately, which may cause unrest in the high-level society. ”

Darkwell's eyes flashed when he heard this, and after two seconds, he said lightly: "Continue to investigate, as for the Assassin Guild, don't worry about it for the time being." ”

"Yes."

Demacia, the city of Tobicia.

"Look, we're coming!"

Lux stood at the bow of the boat, slightly excitedly looking at the riverside city that appeared in her view.

Luqi yawned as if he had just woken up: "It's still far away, and our final destination is not Tobizia." ”

"There's no difference anymore, I finally don't have to take a boat anymore!"

The thought that she was about to get off the boat made Lux feel very good, even a little teary-eyed.

For five days, for five whole days, she had to get up every morning and drink a bowl of Luki's seasickness soup.

Do you know what it's like to just wake up and face the sentence "Da Lang, it's time to drink medicine"?

She never wanted to live such a painful life again!

However, such a day will have to be experienced again when she returns.

However, Lu Qi did not want to ruin the good mood of Miss Crownguard early in the morning, even if he would be extremely happy, but thinking of the result of losing both sides after saying that, he still did not speak.

Back in his room on the ship, Lucci simply packed up his things.

Thinking of today's day, he said in his heart: "Sign in." ”

[This sign-in is changed to a monthly sign-in]

【Sign-in Success】

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random Subclass Skill Card*1】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Intermediate Subclass Upgrade Card*1]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Intermediate Skill Upgrade Card*1]

【Congratulations to the host for obtaining a random Normal Skill Card (max level)*1】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the rare exotic fruit - red heart fruit]

[The reward has been deposited into the system backpack, please check it by the host]

Several system voices came out one after another.

This month's monthly pass bonus seems to be quite good.

Luffy began to look at them one by one: "Use a random sub-job card." ”

The deputy position is still a relatively important skill, and it is unknown at the moment, so the deputy position on Lu Qi is not useless.

He is also a little curious about the new deputy position.

【Success】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the deputy position--Puppeteer LV6]

As the system's voice fell, a stream of information poured into Lu Qi's mind, like a cool spring, flowing in his mind.

Time passed slowly, and he gradually absorbed the information in his head.

After half a ring, I opened my eyes.

This puppeteer is indeed a good deputy.

As the name suggests, this sub-job is related to the puppet, and it allows Luki to master how to make an elaborate puppet and manipulate it with psychic powers.

The strength of the puppet is based on his spiritual power, as well as the materials used to make it.

For example, make a golem out of the Forbidden Stone, which will have the ability to absorb magic, and if Lucky is willing to take the time, he can even make a golem like Galio.

But Lucci probably didn't want to waste so much energy.

You know, Galio was created by Durang, the top craftsman of Demacia, and it took several years to create it.

It's going to take a few years for Lucky's focus to do this. It's worse than killing him.

For that time, he would rather lie down more.

Speaking of which, Du Lang is most likely a puppeteer.

But it seems that with his assassination, a large part of his skills was also lost.

Today's Menke family, although it is still an excellent family of craftsmen, few people can create a perfect forbidden stone statue like Galio.

"Level up the puppeteer."

Lu Qi thought about it for a moment and used the deputy upgrade card he had obtained.

【Puppeteer's Level Raised to LV7】

The improvement of the first level once again made Lu Qi gain a lot of insights, and he made a lot of progress in the skills of making puppets.

This deputy position is still good.

It may be useful in the future.

For example, after he goes back, he can create a more durable sparring dummy for the sword girl.

Lu Qi spoke again in his heart: "Use the skill card to upgrade the Divine Tracking Arrow." ”

[Arcane Tracking Arrow Level increased to LV7]

When the system's voice fell, Lu Qi suddenly felt a warm feeling in his eyes, as if there was a wisp of gentle spring water washing his eyes, which was not uncomfortable, but on the contrary, it was very comfortable.

Upgrading the Arcane Tracking Arrow will improve Luki's eyesight, allowing him to see farther and see more clearly.

It's still very useful.

After opening his eyes again, Lu Qi's eyes were a little brighter and clearer, and they looked as dazzling as gems, making people unable to take their eyes off.

Immediately, Lu Qi looked at the next reward and said silently, "Use a random skill card." ”

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the normal skill: Breath Technique LV9]

Suddenly, a wonderful feeling appeared, and Lu Qi felt as if there was a warm current surging in his chest.

The rate of his breathing also changed.

The next moment, the sound of the system sounded again.

[The same type of skill is detected, and the level of the Divine Hidden Technique is increased to LV8]

The sound of the system made Lu Qi's eyes light up for a moment, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain.

This breath technique is indeed the same type of skill as the Divine Hidden Technique.

They all change their aura to a certain extent by adjusting their breathing.

Unlike Breath Technique, it strengthens Luki's breathing, allowing him to go into a better state of sleep and, actively, into a state of "wakefulness".

In this state, all aspects of Lu Qi's body will be slightly improved, such as sharper senses and more responsiveness.

As an ordinary skill, having such an effect is already quite good.
