There were miserable corpses everywhere, and deathly silence shrouded the world. As the night passed, Demacia's fearless vanguard team found nothing except ashes.
Before dawn, the five people returned to the temporary base. After replenishing the lost energy by eating, they began to discuss the information they had received.
Leach was the first to talk about what he and Karl had seen.
"With all due respect, Noxians are beasts! Before, I had illusions about the Emerald Territory because of all the good rumors about it. I was wrong. The Emerald Territory is just a group of people occupying the fertile land of the Nocmooch Plains. barbarians, even worse than the barbarians of Freljord.
Captain Sword, the Noxians have been killing Leinlanders from beginning to end. I even saw the body of a child. In Demacia, children of his age were still enjoying their happy childhood, but he had already Became a cold corpse."
"This is war, this is the meaning of our struggle, Leach, never have illusions about your enemy."
"I have learned my mistake, and I will never make the same mistake again."
Taking out a pen and paper, Leach, who has an excellent memory, began to draw a simple map. The map would be gradually improved and the next location that might be chosen as a base would also be marked.
"Our current location is probably here. This is a residential area in the outer city. There is very little valuable information. Karl and I did not encounter any living people along the way, and supplies were also plundered.
Both Noxians and Leinlanders have evacuated this destroyed place. According to the ruts Karl observed, a large number of people evacuated towards the inner city of Leinland.
Captain Jian, will we go to the inner city for action?"
"Inner city...if necessary.
Leach, you and Karl should continue to expand the search area tonight, it is best to find some surviving Leinlanders, I don't believe there are really no living people here."
The rotation order of rest was arranged, and the day passed quickly, and night fell. No one, including Sword Captain Blofeld, noticed that the young shield guard who had the easiest job turned a little pale.
The heavy trap door of the cellar was gently closed. With the sound of heavy objects rubbing against each other, he remembered that the other four people had left. In the darkness where he could not see his fingers, Gallup, who had begun to sweat on his forehead, took a deep breath and pulled out A mithril double-edged dagger.
"Ta da~ta da~"
In the dead silence, faint footsteps came from above the cellar.
"Tada~Tada~Dongdong~Dongdong~"
Sweat dripped on the ground, and Gallup was sure that the owner of the footsteps came to the trap door of the cellar and knocked lightly on the trap door.
He wanted to ask loudly who the visitor was, and why he was so crazy that he didn't say a word and just hit the obstacle blocking the trap door with his body. However, his remaining sense told him that it was best not to make any sound or make any noise. Action, the warriors of the first shield formation of the Dauntless Vanguard were finally defeated by fear. The man could only huddle up and hide in the corner. Only the cold mithril dagger in his hand could give him some comfort.
He hoped that the strange noises would last for a while and then leave as soon as possible, but contrary to expectations, the strange noises tonight were extremely persistent, always using a specific rhythm to hit the wooden board with his body parts, as if he knew what was inside the cellar.
There are people down there who refuse to leave.
It seemed that only a few minutes had passed, and it seemed that more than ten years had passed. He had already been forgotten by his companions and even the whole world.
Gallup, whose nerves were so tight that he almost broke, finally couldn't bear the collision sound in the dead silence anymore. He only felt that the darkness around him seemed like a huge mouth was about to swallow him. Even if he closed his eyes, he would see terrible things with his own eyes.
Things are watching me and approaching me.
The man put the mithril dagger back into its sheath with trembling hands, and took out the cardboard box from the bag in the dark.
"Clusters and clusters..."
The bright light brought by the match dispelled the terrible darkness. Gallup, who chose to keep the light, used all his strength to light the candle. In his opinion, no matter whether the knocker is a human or a ghost, he will always see the light.
It's better to make some changes than to do nothing and be tortured to death.
As the light of the candle illuminated the area, Gallup, who felt a little more secure, found that the beating sound above his head had disappeared, as if it had never existed.
The unexpected change gave Gallup some more confidence in fighting the darkness and the unknown. However, this confidence had not lasted long before Captain Jian's familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from above his head.
"Sure enough, you are down there."
A gust of cold air rushed from his heels to Tianling Gai. Gallup, whose scalp was exploding, never imagined that the person who had been beating and frightening him outside was Captain Jian who was out collecting intelligence. But after a second thought, Gallup realized the possibility again.
It's very small, but if it's not Captain Jian, who is the 'person' who speaks with Captain Jian's voice?
After opening his mouth, Gallup still didn't speak. He just huddled in the corner holding a candle and remained motionless.
"The Noxians, the Leinlanders, the Demacians, everyone is dead. They are all dead. It's just you. Come out, come out, come out, come out...
Come out, I don’t want to come out.”
Captain Sword's voice began to become sharp like a punctured balloon, and then Gallup heard the sound of the trap door being rubbed. This sound was all too familiar to him. The last time Captain Sword Blofeld and
Tina made the same sound when she moved the solid wooden bed.
Unable to bear it any longer, seeing that his last safe space was about to be invaded by an unknown entity, Gallup gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice.
"who are you?"
"Got you."
There was silence for a moment.
"call……"
A strange blast of cold air blew out the candles, and the cellar fell into dead silence.
Before dawn, Blofeld took Tina back to the temporary base. Looking at the wooden bed that had not been touched by Leach and others, Blofeld asked Tina to move with him.
Just as he was about to open the wooden door, the wooden door was pushed open from below. The startled Blofeld frowned and stepped back half a step. Gallup, who was stepping on the wooden ladder, smiled slightly stiffly and looked.
After taking a look at Tina, he retracted his head into the cellar without saying a word.
"What is he doing?"
"have no idea."
Blofeld, who returned to the cellar again, saw burnt candles and matchsticks lying on the ground, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Gallup, why are there so many candles lit? What happened last night?"
"It's nothing. I just clicked. I didn't sleep well in the morning."
Gallup shook his head. Except that his face was a little pale, he seemed to be fine. Blofeld couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"That's good, we will move our base today and prepare. We must sneak into the city before the Noxians completely defeat the Leinlanders, so that our identity will not arouse the suspicion of the Noxians."
…
The dragon bird knight flew across the sky towards the high castle in the inner city of Leinland. The impact alchemy explosives that fell from the sky were suddenly blocked by the white magic light of the physical store. The expanding firelight could not break through the thin light curtain at all, but instead had a huge impact.
The quenched poison bow, which was not mixed with the magic light, shot the dragon bird knight down from the sky,
After a sharp whistle, the Dragon Bird Knight Legion, which had lost one-third, began to retreat in an orderly manner.
On the ground, like the heavy tank dragon lizard knight, it was also blocked by a magic shield. People from the outside could not pass through the light curtain, but the Liinlan soldiers in the light curtain could shoot arrows without any scruples and release magic, allowing the dragon to escape.
The Lizard Riders suffered heavy casualties.
For seven days, the Emerald Territory's legions have been besieging the last castle. The castle's magical defense was unusually durable. On the contrary, many Emerald Territory soldiers began to have hallucinations and could only be temporarily disarmed and imprisoned.
.
"Master Mimi, you also said that there are two dome towers built in the inner city. The core of the enemy's defensive array is on the two dome towers. We must find a way to break the magic shield to let our soldiers
Enter the inner castle and completely defeat the Leinlanders."
At the headquarters of the First Legion of the Black Iron Guards of the Emerald Territory, Milton tapped on the 'U'-shaped castle on the military map. The short Master Meme stood on a small bench and stared at the temporarily drawn map with a gloomy expression.
"These two round forts are at odds with each other. The Leinland wizards and poisonous arrow archers can easily attack us through the magic shield. We are too passive now. Master Mimi, the soldiers need to be more careful."
With more magic support, I want to know when the black lightning can break through that damn defensive circle?"
"Their magic is different from what I am familiar with. If we want to crack it, we need more time."
After being silent for a long time, Master Meimi gave his answer, but this answer was not satisfactory to Milton.
"Is there really no other way?"
"...If you can't wait, you can try to attack by force."
Milton's eyes lit up. Of course he wanted to break through Leinland as soon as possible, because only in this way could the Emerald Territory have enough time to build defensive buildings to confront Demacia.
"What kind of forceful attack? Will our casualties be high?"
Master Meimi shook his head.
"I will let the mages conduct continuous spell bombing to consume the energy of the defensive array. No matter how long-lasting the Leinland people's defensive array is, it cannot be maintained indefinitely. But in this case, when the array is broken, I am afraid that the black
Lightning will be unable to continue participating in the battle."
"It doesn't matter, you just need to break the defensive array, whether it's an evil weapon or a totem, leave the rest to us."
Nodding heavily, Master Meimi jumped down from the stool.
"I'll make arrangements."
After changing its aggressive offensive, the Legion withdrew a distance of 500 meters, leaving enough space for the one hundred and twenty-four black lightning mages standing in a semi-arc to cast spells, and allowing the black lightning mages to escape completely.
Increases the range of Leinland archers and spell attacks.
Master Meimi was in the center of the formation and took out a tetradecahedron amethyst from the magic container.
This amethyst is the [Eternal Catalyst Stone] that Lester obtained from the Heidi people in the Battle of the North Sea. It is also the charging core node of the advanced spell [God-Killing Spear] used by the Heidi people to injure Misha.
Lester, who had obtained the Eternal Catalyst Stone, did not need magic equipment to strengthen himself, so he naturally did not take the magic equipment away, but left it to the Emerald Territory through Shia.
This time, in order to complete the strategic deployment of the Emerald Territory as soon as possible, Xina took out the Eternal Catalyst Stone and handed it to the unidentified Meimi.
The two flat surfaces of the amethyst are engraved with different ancient magic runes respectively. The left hand holds the Catalyst Stone of Eternity, and Meimi holds the obsidian crystal staff high in her right hand. As the elements begin to flow, the magic stored in the Catalyst Stone is expressed in the obsidian crystal.
The staff is the core node, turning into a large mana network connected to one hundred and twenty-four small nodes. The dark purple mana network protects the rest of the black lightning mages.
Encouraged by the Eternal Catalyst Stone, all black lightning mages have sufficient mana elements, and there is no need to worry about the long-distance magic attack of Master Li Yinlan. Any elemental magic will be transformed by the Eternal Catalyst Stone and become the spell cast of all mages.
energy.
Seeing that his one hundred and twenty-four offensive rune arrays were about to take shape, Milton, who was riding a war horse, narrowed his eyes and looked at the alien-style castle that looked like a turtle shell.
The next second, the attacking magic that covered the sky turned into a violent torrent of elements and rushed towards the magic shield six hundred meters away, drowning everything in sight.
After the military formation, Milton raised his voice and looked sternly.
"Wait for my order! When the magic shield is broken, follow me into the enemy's formation! Prioritize finding the enemy's totem evil weapon. No prisoners will be left until the evil weapon is confirmed to be destroyed!"
"yes!"

In the Royal Castle of Liyinland, the King of Liyinland, Jino Pulan, was sitting on the trembling throne with his eyes closed and taking a nap. Thirteen voodoo shamans and mist god priests were kneeling in the not-too-large meeting hall, as if
Unaffected by the outside world, the meeting hall was filled with an eerie silence.
A gray wooden statue is located behind the throne. The statue's eyes are like a fish, its nose is like a deer, its ears are like an elephant, its body is like a leopard, but its limbs are like an octopus in the sea. The evil statue is full of holes.
There are obvious cracks, and the entire wood withers exudes an unpredictable atmosphere.
"My priests, tell me, how long can this castle last? (Leinland)"
Obscure foreign languages echoed in the meeting hall. King Jinuo opened his bloodshot eyes. No one dared to look directly into the king's eyes, just as the king did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the God of Mist.
"Reporting to my king, the castle is about to be destroyed. Ever since the Noxians began to massacre the people of Leinland indiscriminately, the Mist God has lost its influence on the Noxians."
The speaker was Tiram, the favorite priest of the God of Mist. At this moment, the dark-skinned priest also had a pair of bloodshot protruding eyes, which looked somewhat similar to the eyes of the statue of the God of Mist.
"Tirram, tell me, why would the Noxians attack us without warning?"
King Jinuo asked again, and the priest lowered his head.
"Reporting to my king, the great Mist God told me that the Noxians have seen their future."
Jino stared at the crazy-looking priest with his wide, protruding eyes.
"What future?"
"A future that is forever lost! My king, the price is our lives, but the door to our hometown will open from here on out!"
