Lux's fire really forced Jarvan IV to take a proactive stance.
But from a consequentialist perspective, this fire seems to be a bit too strong, so that Jarvan IV and the Cult of the Titan merged.
Judging from the situation of the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect, they seemed to be prepared for everything. After merging into the Twilight Sect, they quickly gathered Lahorak warriors and Moon warriors and rushed to Pinara.
Cheng seems to be impatient and hopes to join the battle immediately.
This is very abnormal.
But what's even more unusual is that Jarvan IV seems to be happy to see this happen.
It is undeniable that the Ra'horak warriors and Moon warriors can greatly make up for the lack of spellcasters on Jarvan IV's side, but apart from that, no matter from which point of view, allowing a group of Ra'kor people to come to Germany
Marcia's participation in counterinsurgency is quite inappropriate.
As the civilized kingdom of Valoran that once stood side by side with Noxus, Demacians are very proud. They are proud of their history and the glory of their ancestors. This country was born in the late rune wars.
Over the years, it has gradually formed its own new civilization.
However, allowing a group of Shurima people to participate in their own counter-rebellion war is not remotely honorable, and can even be said to be quite embarrassing. Although the vanguard army did suffer defeat because of underestimating the enemy before, Your Majesty
Didn’t I make it clear before? After all, the enemy is the foundation of the Border Legion. They are strong, but we are stronger!
But now?
Why did His Majesty form a Twilight Church in the blink of an eye and allow these Rakkor people from the south to participate in the war?
This is our internal counter-insurgency war in Demacia. What's going on with these outsiders?
However, Jarvan IV also had his own considerations.
If you don't take the initiative to attack, the pressure from the Noble Council will be difficult to withstand, and problems will arise in the north if you delay it; but if you take the initiative to attack, it will be easy to be caught in the lack of geographical advantage - at this time, the Burning Sun Sect and the Bright Moon Sect
If you offer to help, why not accept these cannon fodder?
It is better to use these cannon fodder to fill the line and be the first to penetrate into the northern border than to let the elite of your direct line take the lead, right?
During the Battle of Nasramai, Jarvan IV had vaguely seen the extraordinary qualities of the Solar Sect and the Lunar Sect. However, based on the consideration of developing Shurima's power, he still made the decision to accept the limited power of the two sects in Demacia.
Preach.
Now from Jarvan IV's perspective, the best way is to bring the Sun Sect and the Bright Moon Sect under his control, and use their elite guardians to make both them and the North suffer.
.
In other words, only when the elite guardians of the Twilight Church were almost exhausted and turned into the size of the Illuminati Silent People, Jarvan IV was really willing to accept these Rakkor people, and even said that the Twilight Church would become a German nation.
The state religion of Marcia.
Thinking along this line of thinking, it is not difficult to find that Jarvan IV actually had the idea of killing two birds with one stone. He could suppress the rebellion at a low cost and consume the power of the Twilight Church to facilitate his rule. It can be said to be a win-win situation.
As for whether doing this will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers...
Compared with the benefits gained from a win-win situation, the emotions of the soldiers are not that important.
……………………
The wise Jarvan IV is planning his win-win strategy, but what about the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect?
Are they following Jarvan IV's script?
The answer is naturally no.
Jarvan IV thought that they were willing to send troops to quell the rebellion because they saw the prosperity and richness of Demacia and hoped to preach freely here and carry forward their beliefs. It was with this idea that Jarvan IV thought that he could
Guide and even control the Sun Sect and Moon Sect.
But actually...
It can be said that this understanding is not correct at all.
Is Demacia prosperous and rich?
Judging from the current average level of Runeterra, including the Forsbarrow region and the Xiongdu region, but other than that, the development level of Demacia is similar to that of Southern Shurima, with large rural areas all over the place.
Considering the history of the two sects and the stage of the Shurima Empire they have experienced, it is obvious that the current Demacia will not inspire their respect.
So, are the Sun Sect and Lunar Sect preaching for freedom?
This statement is obviously wrong, because from the beginning, their goal was not to simply preach - during the Shurima Empire, the repeated suppression of the giant god belief has shown that there is a long-term relationship between secular power and religion.
With natural contradictions, they have already formed a protective army. How could they still have such naive ideas?
With the royal family watching and the nobles biting, how many believers can you win over and how much faith can you develop just by preaching!
Jarvan IV thought that the Sun Sect and Moon Sect were here to spread religion, but in fact they were targeting the empire of Demacia!
You want my interest, I want your principal!
Carry forward?
It’s clearly Li Daitaojiang!
Little by little, Jarvan IV accepted the title of Lord of Twilight and the status of Pope of the Church of Twilight. It seemed that he was bringing the religious power into his rule, but the actual situation was that it was still early for the religious authority to be included in his rule.
, but Jarvan IV himself is moving forward along the trajectory outlined for him by the Twilight Titan.
During Jarvan IV's journey to the summit, due to the inability of the Twilight Titan to clone himself, and with Soraka's help, Jarvan IV, who became the climber, did not become the Titan's new protoss host on the spot.
But it was during this journey to the summit that a seed was quietly planted in Jarvan IV's heart. From then on, every time he got closer to the dusk, the seed sprouted.
All the generous gifts of the giant gods were actually priced secretly - during the Shurima Empire, what they gave was nothing more than strength and immortality, and due to the existence of the sun disk, the Shurima Empire
The technology seems to be better, so the Titan Cult is always at a disadvantage.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This time, after experiencing many failures, the giants seemed to have finally accepted Twilight's suggestion. They were finally willing to lean down and condescend to observe these things.
A society of mediocre mortals, and then use the ridiculous ideals and politics of mortals as bait to try to start fishing.
As a result, the attention of the Demacians was gradually drawn to Shurima, where they easily opened up golden trade routes that were unimaginable in the past, and then earned immeasurable wealth, which attracted everyone's attention.
Heading towards Shurima, the Cult of the Titans naturally came into their sight.
In Shurima, the Demacians made wealth, gained glory, and gradually expanded their influence. They even attracted the defection of local powerful people and contributed to the Great Reconciliation of the Century. It all seemed so...
Everything came naturally, so that when Jarvan IV was thinking about it, he didn't find anything wrong.
This slightly unfamiliar fishing method was somewhat obvious, but some guys hiding in the dark and trying to split Demacia assisted the giant god. Under the influence of the information gap, Jarvan IV took a bite.
The fishhook will never let go.
……………………
The people who provided assists to the Titans were undoubtedly LeBlanc and Vladimir.
Although the war on the northern frontline is relatively tense now, these two "secretaries of Jarvan IV" are not working as conscientiously as His Majesty the Emperor expected.
On the contrary, after Jarvan IV personally went to war, LeBlanc and Vladimir once again used their methods to bring down Noxus and poached Demacia.
As the most important secretary of Jarvan IV, LeBlanc, whose pseudonym is Lanfu, can be regarded as one of the closest people to Jarvan IV. A large number of information files that Jarvan IV handles daily often have to go through her beforehand.
hand.
In this process, LeBlanc has skillfully cultivated its own power.
Learning from the failure experience of the Noxus period, LeBlanc and Vladimir did not give it a title such as the Black Rose, but completely rooted it in the Noble Council and gathered it through Jarvan IV.
Power, the opportunity to incur the dissatisfaction of the nobles, and cover their private connections.
On the surface, LeBlanc is easing the conflict and dealing with the problem of kindness that Jarvan IV is not good at; but in fact, LeBlanc often leaves the blame to Jarvan IV and becomes the good person herself.
And the best thing is that because Zwei is a true "noble rebel", Jarvan IV never doubted that the loyal Zwei and Lanfu would collude with the nobles.
When Jarvan IV followed Twilight's path and began to summon the La Horak warriors and the Moon warriors, LeBlanc and Vladimir, who were in the capital city, finally found the opportunity to enter the Shadow Realm and realize their dreams.
.
Long before Lux came to the capital to add fuel to the fire, LeBlanc and Vladimir had already realized how the other party came to the capital - they also had mastered many entrances to the Shadow Realm.
However, it is impossible for them to tell this kind of thing directly, otherwise it will not be explained clearly.
Therefore, under the auspices of Zwei, the incarnation of Vladimir, the demon searchers launched a search in Xiongdu for "possible magic tricks". It took almost a month to finally find traces of those enemies.
Why did it take a month?
Because Vladimir's men went to the Shadow Realm for a month, they concluded that Lux had withdrawn from the Shadow Realm.
Last time, LeBlanc and Vladimir performed the Immortal Ritual in the Shadow Realm but were interrupted, and were eventually dealt with by Lux. Now they must confirm that Lux is not there before they can take the next step.
Now it is finally confirmed that Lux is not in the Shadow Realm. She was just passing by before. In addition, the troops in the North are increasing again, and the pressure has obviously increased. After LeBlanc and Vladimir discussed it, now it should be the preparation ceremony, the final step to enter the Shadow Realm.
Good time!
Therefore, with the cooperation of Lanfu and Zwei, some of their die-hard loyalists were transferred into the Demon Searcher sequence, or became executive guards of the garrison. Taking advantage of the opportunity to track down the enemy, they entered the Shadow Realm.
Here, they will perform a complex ritual to merge the subject with the shadow to achieve true immortality.
Just like the Black Rose sold Swain in the Battle of Presidence and the Battle of Tobitsia.
Now, LeBlanc and Vladimir are ready to sell Jarvan IV.
Interestingly, Jarvan IV had to wait until his vanguard army was wiped out before he realized how good the North was. However, LeBlanc had already given up on asking Jarvan IV to deal with Lux because the information she came into contact with was relatively direct.
Got an idea.
Yes, from LeBlanc's point of view, the winner of this war seems destined to be Lux - so she and Vladimir need to take advantage of the opportunity when Jarvan IV can still hold on and Lux has no time to worry about the Shadow Realm.
, just hurry up and complete your immortal ritual.
A man who can bend and stretch, first achieves immortality, and then slowly causes trouble for Lux!
With this idea in mind, after making preparations, Mr. Zwei entered the Shadow Realm and began to pursue the traces of those northern spies.
After Mr. Zwei set out, the voices of dissatisfaction within the Noble Council became louder and louder under the control of thoughtful people, so that Miss Lanfu "could not control the situation" and gradually became a transparent person.
Just like this, when Barrett came back to transport supplies and planned to discuss the follow-up plan with Lanfu, this really diligent old scalper discovered that Miss Lanfu, who had always been shrewd and reliable, had disappeared, and the noble council of Xiongdu had disappeared.
The quarrel turned into a pot of porridge, and there were some deficiencies and some backlogs in the logistics material mobilization...
What's going on?
Faced with this situation, Barrett was quite confused. While relying on the authority in his hands to take charge of the work as much as possible, he quickly reported the situation in Xiongdu to Jarvan IV.
Jarvan IV was also stunned when he received the news.
Lanfu is missing?
Then go and ask Zwei!
What, Zwei went to track down the rebels who caused trouble in Xiongdu, and I don’t know where they are now?
Then leave it to Lan Fu’s men for the time being!
Uh, Lanfu's men also disappeared one after another?
Jarvan IV, who was well aware of the importance of supplies, quickly realized the seriousness of the problem. Without hesitation, he mounted a dragon bird and quickly rushed to the capital.
At this juncture, Xiongdu cannot have any problems!
Unfortunately, even if Jarvan IV returned as soon as he got the news, the situation still reached an irreversible point when he returned to the capital.
Lanfu conspired with the noble council to deceive and deceive in many places, creating a large deficit. No one knows where these funds and materials went (actually they were used to trade materials needed for the Endless Ceremony), and the accounts left behind
It's a mess, but there are very few people who can sort it out.
In the past, Jarvan IV worked hard to gather military power, suppress the nobles, and then promoted and supported the new batch of political support from the new military group. Most of them were corrupted by Lanfu and Zwei.
Due to the mistake of trusting someone who shouldn't be trusted, after Lanfu and Zwei disappeared mysteriously, many government affairs in Xiongdu came to a standstill. Even though Jarvan IV was furious, in the end he could only suppress his anger and spend all the money he had on hand.
Some reliable manpower is arranged in logistics transfer work.
He didn't even have time to explore the reason why Lanfu and Zwei disappeared.
Until deep in his heart, a vague voice reminded him to go to the world of shadows to find those two despicable traitors.
