Chapter 6 Chapter 6 The flames of war rise again, the captain’s letter
On the dining table on the first floor, Lester and Rose were sitting dignifiedly and elegantly enjoying breakfast.
"Lester, it's been half a year since you came to my place, right?"
Looking at the small piece of crumbs hanging from the corner of Rose's mouth, Lester gently hooked it with his finger, and then put it into his mouth in front of Rose, who was blushing, with a little more affection in his eyes.
"To be exact, it's been 172 days, three hours and fifty-two minutes since you took me home, but I feel like it was just yesterday."
"Yes, time flies so fast when I am with you, and I always feel that there is not enough time."
"It's okay. We've lost the first half of our lives, and we still have the second half. That's enough."
"Hehe, you really know how to talk~"
After Rose cleared the table, the woman sat down next to Lester and hugged the man gently.
"Lester, now that you can understand Noxian, can you tell me your story? Are you really a remnant of some ancient ruins? The beautiful language in your mouth is
What language? Where did your clothes come from? What ancient civilization designed them?"
As if he didn't expect the woman to ask him this question, Lester was startled, with a bit of sadness on his face.
"Don't be sad. If you don't want to say it, don't say it."
Rose's face looked a little more remorseful.
"It doesn't matter, even my life belongs to you. There is nothing I can't say in front of you."
Holding the woman in front of him sadly, Lester's voice was extremely sincere.
"Perhaps I am really a remnant of ancient times. Most of my memories have been lost. Except for my name and the great language engraved deep in my soul, I only remember that I was in the ice and snow, and a ray of light flashed, and I appeared there.
I walked into the square of this city. I didn’t know anyone, and I didn’t understand what they said. Everyone pointed their spears at me. The world was indifferent and dark...until you appeared in front of me."
Seemingly moved by the man's sincerity, the woman froze for a moment and patted the man's back with her backhand to comfort him.
"It's okay. As long as you work hard, you will always find your lost things one day... But, Lester, I find that I can't live without you. Promise me, no matter what happens, we will face it together.
Don’t leave me, okay?”
A faint smile flashed across the corner of his mouth, and Lester's arms tightened.
"Silly girl, how could I leave you... It's just Mr. Nadarz's side..."
"He? Has been busy fighting. He probably has forgotten what happened to you. Just tell him when he remembers it. It's okay. I'll deal with him."
"Rose, you are so kind to me..."
"As long as you know... Well, Lester, I suddenly want to teach you Ionian..."
"Then let's go upstairs. I happen to want to learn it too... Is it still the same as Demacian, teaching 'um', 'ah' and 'no' at the beginning?"
"Damn ghost! Not serious~"
On the other side, in front of Nadarz, Meredith, a member of the Black Rose, conveyed Ms. Rose's message.
"Lord Nadarz, Ms. Rose said, that stupid ancient remnant has just learned the most basic usage of Noxus. His vocabulary is not enough to communicate with others. He can only use simple words."
You use "um" or "ah" to express that you generally understand it, but in fact you still don't understand it, and you can't use it to communicate at all."
Hearing Meredith say this, a look of satisfaction and pride appeared on Nadarz's face.
"Sure enough, I have gained such a good face in vain. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn Noxian by the end of this year if this continues. It only took me four months to learn the usage of 'um' and 'ah' from my mother.
There is still a gap between that ancient remnant and me."
"Yes, Lord Nadarz."
Leaning over and bowing, Meredith's voice was particularly sincere.
"Your wisdom is unparalleled."
…
Noxian calendar, year 1 AD.
The flames of war have reignited, and the situation that was originally developing peacefully suddenly became precarious.
Out of dissatisfaction with the Roxy tribe who occupied the Immortal Fortress, the Mostak barbarian tribe in the north united with the Ubol barbarian tribe, and on the condition of freely plundering the population and wealth of Noxus, they gathered the Beheaded Man.
Several rogue groups led by bandits began to plunder villages in Noxus territory.
The border villages were quickly plundered. The heads of the villagers and Noxian patrols were chopped off by the plunderers and stuck in rows of wooden poles. The houses were reduced to ashes, and the women were tortured to death.
Having tasted the sweetness, the Mostak barbarians burned, killed and looted all the way, supporting war with war, from the Dalmo Plain northwest of the Immortal Fortress to a place less than 110 kilometers away from the Immortal Fortress. The driven Black Rose
The mage group blocked it with difficulty.
Relying on the three peaks of Pagrus in the east and the Gorel Mountains in the west, the Noxian soldiers established a defense line along the first branch of the Black Iron River adjacent to the village of Nota.
The built barriers became a roadblock for barbarians and bandits to plunder and push down the immortal fortress...
After getting up from his third wife's bed overnight, Nadarz didn't even have time to put on a shirt. He quickly walked through the noble area shirtless and arrived at the war conference room on the upper floor of the fortress.
When he opened the door, Ms. Rose, who represented the underground organization Black Rose, and Standalda, the Noxian supporter leader who represented the non-Roxy clan, were already sitting in their respective seats.
"How's the situation?"
Breathing heavily, Dalt took out a parchment scroll from the bag on his back and handed it to Nadarz. After taking the parchment scroll, an autographed letter from Brent, the Noxian commander stationed in Nota Village, appeared.
In front of you.
"Lord Nadarz, the great leader of Noxus, as I began to write, the bloodthirsty beasts of Mostak attacked us again.
With the help of Master Black Rose, my men successfully captured a Mostak centurion and learned a terrible and unfortunate news from the cowardly and weak traitor.
The plunderers headed by the Beheaded Robbers had bypassed the Gorel Mountains two days ago, heading south from the west side of the mountains, burning, killing, and looting.
Judging from my experience, the vanguard cavalry of those bandits and bandits have probably arrived in the middle of the Gorel Mountains.
My lord, these bandits are cruel and cunning. They have a cavalry of nearly a hundred men and will kill any messenger who wants to deliver a message to the Immortal Fortress. So if your lord, you have not received the bad news from the west,
, please be sure to prepare for war and try your best to deal with those difficult cavalry,
The bandit's butcher's knife is at my feet. I will use my life to defend the territory and defense lines of Noxus and intercept the main force of the Mostak barbarians north of the village of Tano.
Noxus, fight to the death! Noxus, fight to the death!
——
Brent Wright"
Putting down the parchment letter in his hand, Nadarz's breathing became a little heavier.
