Two weeks after the death of Burnham Darkwill, the succession to the Supreme Commander of Noxus is still filled with confusion and struggle. Despite intense debate, it is still unclear who will succeed the Grand General.
The position of High General of Noxus should have belonged to Burnham Darkwill's eldest son, Driller. After his father's death, Driller has not made any public remarks.
However, when Burnham Darkwill died, the disappearance of General Duqueau became the focus of the investigation. As Duqueau's daughter, Caterina believed that after the death of Burnham Darkwill
, the most qualified and high-profile heir is her father, if her father has not disappeared yet...
What is puzzling is that in a short period of time, two of the most important figures in Noxus left one after another. Is this a coincidence or an unknown conspiracy?
The heir turmoil has not yet stopped, and everyone's attention is focused on Jericho Swain. As one of the heroes of Noxus, he is also a famous Noxian general, and his army also has outstanding military exploits.
People in the high command still mentioned his name often. When he stepped forward, Jellicoe Swain became the most powerful general on the front line of the battlefield.
However, General Swain was busy with Kalamanda and did not respond.
After the war between Noxus and Demacia broke out in Kalamanda, the city-state of Zaun supported Noxus and prohibited navigation in front of the sea route and banned all maritime transactions so that the Noxian fleet could return smoothly.
——————————————
While the Noxians were still arguing over the succession of the Great General, the two armies of Noxus and Demacia in Kalamanda had already exchanged fire in Kalamanda.
Due to the existence of the League of Legends, both Noxus and Demacia promised not to be the first to use magic to attack each other. As a result, the battlefield of Kalamanda became a stage for Hextech weapons to wreak havoc.
Hextech grenades and Hextech rocket launchers set off a wave of Hextech on the battlefield of Kalamanda. The Demacians and Noxians ate the dust while cursing the profit-seeking Hextech.
Technology companies actually sold arms to each other.
Noxus organized several strong attacks in an attempt to drive out Demacia, which was entrenched in the other corner of Kalamanda. However, the resilience of the Demacia army withstood the Noxian attacks again and again.
The two armies split Kalamanda into two. Amidst the light of swords and gunfire, and the blood and screams, Kalamanda was reduced to ruins...
This battle lasted for five days, and the League of Legends mediation team finally arrived at the scene.
Just yesterday, the Alliance sent four hundred mages to the edge of the Kalamanda conflict area. Also transported with them was a small energy node. According to the arcane star scholar, this small energy node can supply four sources at the same time.
The power of the magic used by one hundred mages and chanted by four hundred mages cannot even be matched by the magician heroes. The last time this scale appeared was during the Rune Wars.
Kalstar Madak, the Alliance's senior advisor who accompanied the group, called on Demacia and Noxus to stop fighting immediately, but both Demacia and Noxus ignored the League of Legends' intervention. The League of Legends' resolution has never been
After being treated so rudely and arrogantly, four hundred mages used powerful forbidden magic!
Four hundred mages created a static time barrier above the battle area, trapping the soldiers of Noxus and Demacia in this barrier, making everything in the barrier at a standstill. And the barrier
Soldiers inside will be removed and sent back to their city-states.
The Alliance's senior advisor was aware of the trauma that using such powerful magic would cause to Valoran, but he insisted that the operation was a last resort.
The League of Legends has taken a lot of measures to ensure that the damage of this magic to Runeterra will be minimized. The power of this magic is no less than the violent tsunami of the Sea of Guardians, and the mages have also taken considerable risks, because
All the energy on the nodes is gathered and transferred through their bodies. A mage's mistake will cost them all their lives.
Fortunately, everything is safe and sound. The energy nodes were completely consumed during the operation, and the treasures were sacrificed in order to minimize the risk to the environment. The League of Legends has paid a lot to prevent the outbreak of a devastating war."
However, Kalamanda has been reduced to ruins during the war. After Alliance investigators arrived at the village, they stated that the area was temporarily uninhabitable. The Alliance has resettled the affected residents and stated that it will bear the consequences of this incident.
Senior advisor Karlstar Madak said: We are not a government agency, we are not a totalitarian organization, we are representatives of the wishes of the citizens of Valoran. What we want is a new future. Valoran will not and cannot support it.
Any form of abuse of magic, and we, as a member of the public, reject all life in the context of war
Currently, the war has calmed down. Ambassadors from Noxus and Demacia have visited the War College to discuss how to safely repatriate their soldiers and how to peacefully resolve this dispute...

Freljord.
In the conference room in Rico's main city.
Ezreal browsed the intelligence file Ashe gave him, which recorded the ins and outs of the Kalamanda stop and the results of the alliance's mediation.
After reading the information, Ezreal frowned.
"What do you think?"
Sitting in her seat, Ai Xi was a little curious about what her future husband thought of the Kalamanda incident.
"It's very strange. There are many things that cannot be explained." Ezreal pondered for a while and expressed his opinion.
"First of all, the Demacia prisoner. Nize poison has a unique smell, and using it in an assassination mission is a very wrong decision. It is usually rare for assassins to use Nize poison to commit crimes, because this poison will
Leaving too much information on site.
"But the death caused by this poison is very peaceful and gentle. It is used to euthanize animals, so the range of people who can easily obtain it is also very large. If the prisoner died of Nize poison, I would rather
I believe he committed suicide."
"In addition, the assassination of Burnham Darkwill is also confusing. As the supreme leader of Noxus, how could his escort be wiped out in an instant without the ability to react at all when encountering emergencies?
?If Burnham Darkwill's escorts are all this kind of people, he will never live to this age."
"Then there is only one possibility. The person who killed Burnham Darkwill was an acquaintance of his. Because only in this way can the murderer kill Burnham Darkwill and the guards without the guards being completely prepared.
.”
Ash's eyes lit up: "You mean, Swain directed and acted in this war?"
Ezreal nodded: "Sven's suspicion is indeed very high. With the disappearance of General Du Kecao, once something happens to Burnham Darkwill, then Sven is likely to become a Noxian."
Sri Lanka’s new leader will take charge of the overall situation.”
"But, I feel like things are not that simple."
Ezreal paused, "These seem to be too simple, so simple that they can be broken as soon as they are exposed. But such a simple method actually provoked a fight between Noxus and Demacia. I feel that it seems that
There is a pair of invisible hands controlling everything. Noxus and Demacia are just two hidden chess pieces. The real purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes should be revealed soon..."
Looking at Ezreal talking eloquently, Ashe's eyes burst out with a faint brilliance. She did not expect that Ezreal also had considerable talents in the political field.
"Actually, this is not the main purpose of calling you here today."
"Why is that?"
"The ongoing barbarian reconciliation mission of the northern troops of Noxus continues. Yesterday, the Noxian army launched an attack on the barbarian tribes. After receiving the news yesterday, Tryndamere said that he would rush back to the tribes to help the tribesmen.
Fight against Noxus."
"Noxus has been really on the edge lately."
Ezreal clicked his tongue and said: "I just had a fight with Demacia in Kalamanda. I am planning to attack the nomads in the north of Freljord."
"Noxus's militarism has always been like this. Tryndamere has asked me for support, hoping that I can send troops to help him resist the invasion of Noxus. Do you think we should send troops to help?"
Ashe looked at Ezreal.
Ezreal said directly without thinking: "Of course we have to send troops. If the plains north of Freljord become the property of Noxus, then they will be able to threaten our borders unscrupulously in the future.
With the urinal nature of the Noxians, they may have been ready to attack us in the Freljord for a long time."
Ashe nodded and heard Ezreal say: "However, we can't send troops to help Tryndamere in vain. Although we are Tryndamere's allies, we will not do a loss-making business. We also need to ask for some money from Tryndamere.
That’s the benefit.”
"What benefits?" Ai Xi asked doubtfully. She didn't think the barbarian tribe had any benefits that she valued.
Ezreal chuckled: "If we annex the barbarian tribe, do you think it will be good for us?"
Ashe suddenly realized: "Yes, if Tryndamere can really be used by us, the combat power of the barbarian tribes can easily destroy Sejuani's troops. Even facing the bloody elite troops of Noxus, they have the power to fight!"
"
"That's right, with the strength of the barbarian tribes, it is impossible to withstand the attack of Noxus. We can promise Tryndamere to send troops but stay put. When the barbarian tribes are desperate, we can propose that the barbarian tribes merge into Freljor.
Since then, even if Tryndamere is dissatisfied, he will not let the entire barbarian tribe die in the hands of Noxus."
Ashe thought for a while and felt that Ezreal's method was good, so she nodded: "Okay, let's do it like this!"
——————————————
A few days later, the survey results of the League of Legends were released. The League's surveyors had just discovered that this magically contaminated land could actually be rebuilt into a new Field of Justice Arena.
So the reconstruction project began, and Noxus and Demacia also sent envoys to the War College to deal with the post-war affairs of this series of events.
The surveyor's report pointed out that the mine where two huge crystals were excavated in Kalamanda last year was far less affected by magic than the surrounding areas. Alliance senior mage Lando Botero, who is also an Alliance investigator, believes that these two
The huge crystal can absorb the huge energy of magic, but it also makes the Kalamanda mining area a dangerous area uninhabitable.
Haywood, a senior member of the Alliance, said: This will be a huge project. We have to refine the magic of this land and turn it into another arena of justice.'
Yesterday evening, Heywood Rillivish, a member of the Supreme Council of the War College, summoned the summoner group, the refugees from Kalamanda, and representatives of various city-states to the college. He announced this new decision there:
"After the terrible events of last week. We lost Kalamanda in the war, and at the same time we cast deeper scars on this land and the history of Valoran. The mistakes cannot be undone, but we may still be able to make some amends.
——The Alliance will rebuild this broken battlefield into a place where all issues can be resolved without conflict. This new place of justice will forever remind us of the hard-won peace, and remind us why the Alliance exists.'
'Although we lost our home, in its place, everyone will never forget what happened to us in the future.' Mayor Ansenley Deli said to the refugees evacuated from Kalamanda, and major groups also expressed their opinions.
expressed approval of the alliance's move.
In the Alliance, surveyors, masons, mechanics and mages are busy working to build Kalamanda into a brand new Field of Justice arena, which will be shot in Plague Jungle. (PS: It is actually the picture of Twisted Jungle.)
According to Haywood, Kalamanda's arena will be modeled after Noxus and Demacia's envoys are also negotiating at the academy. Demacia is represented by King Jarvan III, while Noxus is represented by Jericho Swain.
He attended in place of the late general. However, as of this morning, the two sides still cannot coordinate a final decision.
In response, Demacia officials issued a speech in Demacia City.
"Some people accuse us of trying to save face in this war, just to satisfy our hypocrisy and ambition. All of Valoran, please listen, what we promise is the call of justice to fight against this evil country that threatens Valoran.
We will follow the teachings of our ancestors and take firm steps to defeat all evil that threatens the continent of Valoran. We must eradicate all evil and root out the root."
Noxus responded:
"Those who claim to be righteous and impartial use their seemingly infinite wisdom to determine that they have the power to interfere in the interests between us and those invaders. Anyone in Noxus will always resist this self-righteous system. When
When our great General Burnham Darkwell fell, we called together those venerable generals. They put aside their desire for personal glory and worked together for a common goal: revenge! against those who resisted us.
People of the Empire! To those who make our people intolerable!
Even if our counterattack will be blocked by the Alliance, they cannot change our determination, because this determination has already been deeply penetrated into the fearless souls of the soldiers. Our blood is not allowed in front of the Alliance, and we are also ordered to
No action is allowed as they need to discuss a correct answer.
However, this unjust war was caused by the hypocritical country, and it also highlighted his hypocritical character. This incident is just proof of their breach of trust. Why do we still endure it?
At that time, our army captured the spies they sent to cause trouble. They secretly assassinated them before the public trial. All this was ordered by the prince of Demacia! However, the Alliance condemned us as militants.
Humiliating us for going to war without evidence. Facing those self-righteous murderers, but not giving us a chance to seek justice. All this, I swear by our glorious history! We will never remain silent! The statement of facts has ended, and
The storm is coming. Noxus will endure and be strong forever!"
The League of Legends did not respond to the statements from the two city-states, but all Valoran people know that the feud between Demacia and Noxus will not end like this...
——————————————
Just when everyone thought that Valoran would enter a brief Cold War period, Noxus once again entered everyone's sight with the help of the barbarian tribes in the northern plains.
On August 1, Noxus launched a fierce attack on the nomads entrenched in the plains west of Pitwolf. Although the barbarian king Tryndamere led his people to resist, he successfully withstood the first few waves of Noxus' attacks.
But you must know that the leader of this Noxian army is Katarina, the daughter of General Duque Cao, known as the Queen of Killings and known as the Queen of Pentakills in the arena.
Under the leadership of Katarina, the barbarian tribes retreated steadily and were about to be defeated by the Noxian army. The new city-state Freljord intervened in the battle without warning, and the Freljord sent
The frost mages and ice archers defeated Noxus.
What's even more annoying is that after the Freljord helped the barbarian tribes resist the attack of Noxus, the barbarian king Tryndamere actually announced that the barbarian tribes would be merged into the Freljord and officially become the Freljord Horde Alliance.
A member of the team, obeying Ashe's orders.
This result made Catalina intolerable.
"Damn Ice Nomads!"
Catalina in the leader's tent slapped the table hard.
"Last week we sent envoys to Freljord, what did they answer me? Didn't they say they would never interfere with our barbarian reconciliation mission? But now they have jumped out and merged the barbarian tribes into Freljord.
Zhuo De. Damn the ice people, this matter will never be over!"
That night, Katarina rushed back to Noxus from the front line, and some people smelled something unusual... (To be continued...)
