At first glance, the ground under your feet has been ravaged by war.

The corpses everywhere smelled of blood, and after a brief period of joy in victory, the soldiers began to clean up the battlefield.

Tens of thousands of corpses were piled up together, and no matter who saw them, they inevitably felt some inexplicable pain in their hearts.

Tens of thousands of lives all fell overnight.

Most of the Demacians carry out justice and protection in their hearts to the end, so they do not understand the thoughts of the invaders.

I only know that after a person dies, the scenery of Runeterrae will no longer be seen.

Some Noxus soldiers didn't close their eyes after they died.

Even if they were enemies in life, out of respect for life, people still helped them close their eyes when they cleaned up.

These Noxians will be buried in this mountain range forever.

Throughout their long history, the mountains have long been littered with bones like these.

The sky gradually brightened, and the first rays of sunlight shone from the sky, shining on everyone's body.

It seems to bring a touch of healing to this traumatized battlefield.

Early morning in Hill City.

The inhabitants of the tunnels had already stepped out, cheering with joy as the army had defeated Noxus.

Immediately, they all went to the church in the city, crowding the huge church with people inside and out.

Inside the church.

Luch stood on either side, quietly listening to the prayers of the Illuminator priest.

And around the priest, there are coffins, in which are the sacrificed soldiers.

As long as it is war, there is no such thing as no sacrifice.

What's more, this is already a battlefield of tens of thousands of scales.

For Demacia, it was always a resounding victory, at the cost of a small number of men, and the destruction of nearly 100,000 enemy troops.

Although these 100,000 people, in terms of the size of Noxus, are nothing at all.

But this battle was like a resounding slap in the face of Noxus.

It also made them pay the price for what they did at the gate of mourning.

After the prayer is over.

Lucci leaves the Illuminator Chapel.

Because Gavin IV had to deal with the affairs of the Gate of Sorrows, he did not rest all night, and immediately went with some people.

Now that Demacia has recaptured the Gate of Grief, normally speaking, Noxus has planted such a big heel this time, I am afraid that it will not come again in a short time.

But to be on the safe side, the reinforcement of the gate of grief still needs to be expedited.

Walking on the road, Luki's eyes looked in the direction of Noxus.

More than 100,000 people, no one survived, and if this matter is reported back to Noxus, I am afraid it will also cause a lot of waves.

But he was sure that even if this was the case, Noxus would not reflect at all.

They never think about how much damage their invasion will do to the invaded.

If you want them to remember it for a long time, it's not enough to just beat them back

Retracting his thoughts from his thoughts, Ludge's eyes were clear, and he knew exactly what he was going to do next.

There was a rush of footsteps from the side.

Glancing at Lux who was following him, Lu Qi remembered something and frowned slightly: "Did you secretly use magic?" ”

"Yes and what!" Lux straightened her chest: "It's hard to tell me to do it." ”

Lu Qi glanced at her: "Aren't you afraid of being discovered?" ”

Lux shook her head with a profound face: "Being afraid and not daring to do it are two different things. ”

Lu Qi thought about it, how could this thing not die in fear while going crazy.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lux said confidently: "Moreover, I used it very carefully, and I will definitely not be discovered." ”

No one has talked about it until now, so no one has found out.

At the thought of her masterful technique, Lux was even a little proud.

She thinks she's hiding it very well.

Lu Qi smiled and said nothing more about her.

Sooner or later, Miss Crownguard won't have to be as sneaky as she is now to even use magic to protect others.

Lux was in a good mood, not only because she hid her magic so well, but also because she saved a lot of people today.

She gradually discovered and understood what she was carrying this power for, she seemed to be no longer confused, and she saw the road ahead.

In the distance, several soldiers were talking.

"Speaking of fighting at night, have you noticed anything strange?"

"You mean"

"That's right, I was besieged by a few Noxians at that time, and just when I was about to lose my support, I suddenly felt a soft light that helped me block the fatal blow."

"I felt what you said, too, but it was when I charged."

"There's no doubt it's magic, right?"

"I seem to see this light from Miss Corona"

"Shhhh

"Miss Crownback is such a kind-hearted girl, we can't hurt her because of us"

Glancing at each other, several soldiers changed the subject.

Such a tacit scene happened in many places.

Many people have noticed that on the battlefield, when there is a danger, there will be a ray of light to block the danger for them.

This light is as dazzling as the blonde girl running on the battlefield.

After returning home.

Lu Qi lay down in the rocking chair relaxedly, as if he no longer had the strength to move.

After a sleepless night, he soon felt a sense of sleepiness, lay there and closed his eyes, and took a nap.

In the corner, Caterina looked at Luqi in the rocking chair with a pair of bright green eyes.

This night's battle gave her a clearer understanding of war.

Even if she regarded human life as a mustard, when the corpses of tens of thousands of people appeared in front of her, she still deeply felt her insignificance.

Hundreds of thousands of people, even if she is allowed to kill, she will have to kill for a few days and nights.

But now, they all died overnight.

And all of this is all due to the decision of the man in the rocking chair.

As the night passed, he seemed to be no different from before, napping with a familiar lazy look on his face, as if he couldn't lift up all day.

However, it is such a person who has killed hundreds of thousands of people overnight.

How exactly did he do it?

Caterina couldn't help but reminisce.

It seems that from the moment Shivana said his origin, he had already thought of a countermeasure.

During the discussion, he directly asked Jiawen IV to lead his troops to the Gate of Sorrow to hide, and after a trip, he returned and began to prepare for the dragon slaying.

Even, Patria's attack was expected by him.

But how did he know that the demon dragon would go to the Gate of Sorrow?

All these arrangements he made were made when he was sure that the demon dragon would definitely descend to the Gate of Sorrow.

If Patria, a little more cautious, is still unwilling to leave the door of sorrow, all preparations will be in vain.

Can Patria's character, how could he give up this good opportunity to send to the face.

Therefore, he calculated correctly, Pateria will definitely take the initiative to attack.

This is the calculation on the battlefield, and the slightest mistake will lead to a catastrophe.

Caterina suddenly thought of the bet between the two, which made her think of an even more terrifying guess.

Is it possible that this guy had anticipated today's events as early as when he made the bet?

Even, when he first met Shivana, he had already planned to take advantage of the appearance of the demon dragon.

The idea was too bizarre for Caterina to believe.

But let Caterina make a list of the most threatening beings to Noxus among the Demacians she came into contact with.

There is no doubt that Rouge will be the first in line.

She always had a premonition that this man who was lying in a rocking chair and sleeping silly at this moment would bring a lot of trouble to Noxus in the future.

Meanwhile.

Located off the coast of the continent of Shurima, on a small island that seems to be isolated from the world.

The island is not small, and among the mountains, there is a towering volcano that stands beneath the clouds.

In the clouds, there were several huge figures shuttling, and if you looked closely, there were several giant dragons.

One of the green dragons flew into the volcano, and then in front of a giant dragon lying cross, he said slowly, "Dragon head, Iva has fallen." ”

The dragon lying on its stomach was even larger, covered in Mithril scales, but it looked like it was already drooping, as if it was sleeping.

Hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes, and a pair of dragon pupils were not angry and arrogant.

He felt it carefully, and sure enough, he found that he could no longer feel the breath of Iva anymore.

Eva's lair is in a volcano on the continent of Shurima, she lives there all the year round, and she will not leave easily, and now that her breath is gone, it can only mean that something has happened.

It seems that she went to clean up the tainted blood, and now it seems that she was obviously killed by the bloodstained person.

"Has another compatriot fallen?"

The Mithril Dragon muttered to himself, a touch of sentimentality rising in his heart.

Nowadays, in the Land of Runeterra, the number of dragons is not much, and it takes a long time for a dragon to be born.

And not all dragon eggs can be successfully hatched in the end.

At first, he brought a part of the dragons to this isolated island.

Others, on the other hand, choose to survive independently.

But this does not mean that there is no bond between them, even if they are separated, they are still dragon blood.

Eva's strength is not weak, but even she will not escape death after all.

This made the Mithril Dragon feel extremely sad.

"Get her body back."

The Mithril Dragon sighed and said slowly, "Also, inform Eva's children about this, according to the rules of the Dragon Clan, any dragon has the responsibility to avenge his compatriots. But now in the state of the world, they can decide for themselves when it comes to revenge. ”

In the past, all mortals who dared to kill dragons must have felt the wrath of the dragon clan.

But now it's different from the past, even if it's as strong as the dragon clan, it can't move.

Eva's affairs should be handled by her close relatives.

"Yes."

The green dragon lowered its head and slowly flew out.

Leaving only the Mithril Dragon, he sighed again, perhaps because of his old age, he had been feeling sleepy more and more easily.

Dragons can survive for a long time.

But how long he lived, even he can't remember a little.

In short, it had been a long, long time, so long that he had witnessed many things in this land of rune.

Now, the Mithril Dragon realizes that it may be nearing its limit.

Before he dies, he may need to elect the next dragon leader as soon as possible, and he will continue to lead the dragon clan.

But now the older dragon is not suitable for this position, and the young dragon is too immature to seem to have the responsibility of the dragon.

Even the green dragon who went out just now was only slightly better.

As the drowsiness set in, the Mithril dragon slowly closed its eyes.

Well, I'll think about it next time I wake up.

When Luki woke up, it was only noon.

He woke up when he felt the coldness on his face, after all, it was winter, and he really didn't respect the weather very much when he was lying in the yard and sleeping.

Although he was wearing real silk satin, which could ward off some of the cold, his face was still cold.

When I woke up, I was wearing a blanket over my body, and I don't know who wore it.

There was no one around, and they were probably all sleeping, after all, they all stayed up for a day and a night.

Luki sat up and touched his belly, empty.

I don't want to be okay, but when I think about it, I just feel dizzy from hunger.

He stood up and strolled towards the barracks.

These days, he basically eats there mixed with a big pot of rice.

When I arrived at the place, I was just in time for the meal, and I took a clean bowl and bowl of hot porridge with vegetables and meat, and two pieces of black bread.

That's for today's lunch.

The cooking skills of the guys in the barracks are still good, and the taste of the porridge can be praised by Luqi.

He sat in one place, eating by himself undisturbed, and looked around.

After the battle, everyone was visibly more relaxed, looking extremely relaxed, no longer as tense as a few days ago.

He also saw Shivana sitting at the dinner table with a few friends talking and laughing, with a heartfelt smile on his face.

He didn't bother.

After lunch, when I went back, I didn't feel sleepy.

In line with the principle that he can't sleep, and no one else wants to sleep well, Lucci was the first to knock on the door of Miss Crownback's room.

After a few bangs, after a while, Lux opened the door and glared at Lu Qi with a sleepy and unhappy look: "What are you doing?" ”

Lu Qi said with a thoughtful face: "I brought you lunch, let's eat some." ”

Lux was even more upset: "Don't you know I'm sleeping?" ”

Her routine has always been very good, she goes to bed early, wakes up early, and thunders for eight hours a day.

After staying up for a day and a night today, I only slept for a few hours now, so you can imagine how sleepy I am now.

"Yes." Lu Qi nodded and said with a smile: "So isn't it afraid that you will be hungry?" ”

"Hungry for your size!" Lux gritted her teeth, she didn't know what this slut thought, she just wanted to close the door, very ruthless: "I just want to sleep now!" Don't bother if you have nothing to do! ”

It's a pity that Miss Crownguard still couldn't sleep after all.

Eventually, she sat down at the table, eating her lunch, while glaring at Lucci with resentful eyes, gritting her teeth and biting the black bread as if she were biting Lucci.

Under such a gaze, Lu Qi did not feel any guilt in his heart, and drank hot tea with peace of mind.
