Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Jarvan IV believed that this was a logistical battle in which "all tactics changed".

But in fact, when he thought he had a favorable tactical position and was planning to trap the Noxian army in Tobitsia Fortress step by step, Swain had already completed his arrangement of ambush on all sides.

From beginning to end, Swain had a clear understanding of the shape of the battle. After suffering a big loss in Ionia, he now attaches great importance to the extraordinary ability to influence the battle situation - news about a large number of people who have climbed the mountain in Demacia has The War Stonemason reported it to him, so Swain took the first step to defend and would never allow his team to confront the Demacians head-on.

The confirmed summit and the uncertain Winged Sisters are the top priority of Swain's combat plan. Before these fatal targets are solved, he will never allow his Noxian army to Go and die.

But now, with enough of LeBlanc's future bodies dead and Demacia's battle gradually spreading, he was finally ready.

As Swain's order was officially issued, a large number of battle groups methodically took up attacking postures at many pre-planned fords that could cross the river.

This situation was immediately discovered by the Demacians. Although such a large-scale and aggressive attack seemed to be a feint attack, Jarvan IV still did not dare to take it lightly and had to order the troops remaining on the north bank to also adopt a targeted defensive posture. , which directly caused the Demacia formation, which was originally split into two by crossing the river and building a pontoon bridge, to be further dispersed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, under the cover of the Frogman Legion, several mage groups quietly went westward and crossed the Vol River.

These mage groups are all "small but refined" mage groups temporarily formed by Siwei to avoid Galio disrupting the situation. The average number of each mage group is only ten people, and their actions are quite flexible. In addition, they have only survived the Wo If you want to reach Demacia's main camp, you have to cross the Tobitsia River, which has already been defended by defenders on the other side, so Demacia did not pay much attention to these scattered people.

Even if the dragon bird knights flying in the air saw these guys, they could only watch them cross the river and dive into the dense forest without hesitation, and then report the news.

In today's chaotic war situation, this kind of team is just a mere detail.

Unfortunately, the Dragon Bird Knight didn't know that these seemingly inconspicuous teams were actually the main purpose of Swain's fanfare.

These temporarily formed mage groups have limited combat capabilities, but each one has its own specialized mission. If the dragon bird knights can fly over the water at low altitude and carefully observe their belongings, they will be surprised to find that these guys have Counting each one, they all gave people a very uncomfortable feeling.

The main source of this "uncomfortable" feeling is the variety of magic items specially carried by these spellcasters.

Some of these magic items are shadow ritual artifacts looted from the Ionians, some are old items infected with death energy inside the Immortal Fortress, and many are cursed artifacts acquired in Shurima.

Although these magic items come in all shapes, attributes, and characteristics, they all have one common characteristic: they are all items with astonishing negative energy.

For this battle, Swain and even Black Rose spent a lot of money.

These items containing ancient negative energy magic could be used as heirlooms in any noble's home, but now they are taken out wholesale and treated as disposable items.

Under the guidance of the War Stonemason, each mage group quickly arrived at the designated location.

Although most of the spellcasters were a little reluctant to give up, they still gritted their teeth and followed Swain's orders to completely destroy these magic items filled with negative energy.

When magic items are destroyed violently, the negative energy contained in them will naturally be released equally violently.

An Ionian shadow ritual artifact, after being smashed and cracked, will fill the surrounding area with shadow energy; a Shurima cursed object is triggered, and large forests will wither and be destroyed; an immortal fortress The instruments of death are destroyed, and the dead beasts on the nearby land that have not yet decayed will get up unconsciously...

Although this change is temporary and will soon expire, when hundreds of small mage groups act together and create a large temporary environment change according to a strict plan, in the western region of Tobitsia, a square area Hundreds of miles of ghosts were born.

At the same time, the LeBlanc Futures corpses that had been placed in various places resurrected again. They did not attack the Demacian flanks, but staggered towards the Demacian towns and villages on the periphery of the battlefield to prepare for the battle. The ignorant Demacians brought greetings full of nightmares, fear, and pain.

Yes, this is the most critical part of Swain's Ambush from Flying Daggers - he knew that the cards in his hand could not cope with Demacia's expanded extraordinary combat power, so he signed a new devil contract with Ramo, and after his death Everything was sold to this secret demon, and from his mouth came the means to awaken other demons.

Shadow artifacts from Ionia will temporarily break the barrier between the Shadow Realm and the real world. Cursed objects from Shurima will cause the deepest pain. Death instruments from the Immortal Fortress will cause people to fear death. That most primal terror.

Swain is specifically awakening three demons that exist in Demacia.

The nightmare demon Nocturne, the pain demon Evelynn, and the most terrifying one, the leader of the ten demons that even Ramo is unwilling to mention easily, the fear demon Fiddlesticks.

Negative emotions are the devil's favorite food, and negative energy is the devil's favorite environment. Under Ramer's careful guidance, Swain bet all the savings of Noxus and the Black Rose to the west of Tobitsia. A temporary devil's amusement park was created in a large area!

This is a "win-win" deal. According to Ramer, there is a lot of friction between Demacia and the demons. As long as the demons appear in the demon paradise carefully prepared by Swain, the Demacia army will The supply route will be substantially cut off - it's not that a small part of the supply across the river cannot be transported across the river, but that all the supplies from Demacia cannot reach Tobitsia!

Yes, the high-end combat power of the Demacians is indeed good. The configuration of the Wing Sisters and the two Summiters is indeed easy to achieve the effect of defeating thousands of troops on the frontal battlefield, but compared to the frontal battle, they The demon behind him will grow stronger as it swallows more emotions!

No matter how resentful the Demacians are and how much they want to finish off the Noxian army, as long as they don't want to see Demacia become a demon kingdom, they must go back and deal with the demons first.

At that time, the Noxian army can pursue them one after another, not only eating the main force of Demacia in one bite, but also allowing Ramo to kill Nocturne and Evelynn to replenish their health!

This is Larmer’s win-win plan!

Although Swain knew very well that the cunning Lamer must have other plans, he still chose to give it a try.

For Swain, this is not even a choice - Swain knows very well that in fact, when he accepted Lamer's demonic gift and saved his life in Ionia in embarrassment, he no longer had a choice. , all he can do is to do more for the empire he loves while his body and soul still belong to him.

……………………

To the west of Tobitsia, the vast Demacia Plain is the core area of ​​Demacia.

The climate here is mild, the precipitation is stable, the terrain is gentle, and there are several rivers running through it from east to west, making it a natural granary.

Although the Demacian army of Tobitsia in the west is confronting the Noxians, in the eyes of most Demacian civilians living here, it is not a big problem.

Our king has gone to the front line and the war situation has stabilized. I heard that our army surrounded the enemy's fortress some time ago. The dawn of victory seems to be right in front of us!

There has just been a spring rain, and now is the important time for spring plowing. Adults in every household are working hard. Even the elderly and children are doing their best to contribute to this year's agricultural production. The elderly are cooking and the children are competing. I knitted a scarecrow to scare the birds. After I finished knitting it, I didn’t rush to put it in the field. Instead, I held it in my hands and compared it with my neighbor’s friends to see who could make it more like it...

No one realized that a terrible disaster was coming quietly.

Late at night, when the lights in the village gradually went out and every household was left with only snoring and murmuring, the crow sitting on the scarecrow's shoulder in the field screamed strangely and hoarsely.

Amidst the heart-stopping crows, the scarecrows in the fields danced silently and strangely as if they were alive.

As the scarecrow dances, the wind rises.

In the howling wind, the night watchman put on his coat, picked up the oil lamp and walked out of the door.

Accompanied by a gust of wind, he subconsciously bent over, trying to turn around to protect the light in his hand.

However, when his eyes fell on the oil lamp, the night watchman was shocked to find that although the wind was blowing around him, the flame of the oil lamp in his hand was extremely calm, so calm that it seemed fake.

The night watchman's eyes widened. He suddenly felt that fear was like a pair of strong dry hands, suddenly grasping his violently beating heart. He opened his mouth wide, subconsciously trying to shout, but he only swallowed it. wind……

After a while, the wind stopped.

The oil lamp that was as bright as a bean was still firmly held in his hand, but this hand no longer belonged to the night watchman, and a withered scarecrow took his place.

It wears the same coat as the Night Watchman, and the same leather hat produced in the North as the Night Watchman. Although these clothes are a bit big for it, and the dry straw is not enough to fill it up like the Night Watchman, but It still smiled happily and freely.

Um, wait, why is the scarecrow smiling?

Obviously, none of the children who were laughing and playing all day had ever painted the face of the scarecrow...

Carrying an oil lamp, the Scarecrow visited every family in the village door to door like a night watchman. Wherever he went, everyone who was sleeping seemed to have dreamed of something terrible and curled up subconsciously. .

The Scarecrow was very satisfied with this scene. He creaked and twisted his stiff joints and walked along the night watchman's route until he met a little girl who woke up from her dream - the little girl saw the strange reflection in the window. The figure, but before she could rub her eyes and see clearly what the figure looked like, a deep voice sounded in her ears.

"You got me!"

"Next, I'm going to catch you -"

The little girl subconsciously wanted to open her mouth and scream, but before she could make a sound, the black crows swept through the entire village like a storm, completely drowning out her fearful voice.

When the crow storm dissipated, the village finally returned to silence again.

No, this is not silence, but dead silence.

The sleeping villagers disappeared without a trace - not just the villagers, but any living animals.

And on the only road leaving this village, a strange scarecrow was limping towards the next village not far away.

Compared with before, its expression seems to be more vivid, and its night watchman's attire has become more colorful. It seems to be very happy walking on the country road, and the smile on its face is more child-like. of innocence.

"Ten kings, ten thrones."

“Nine crowns crown the head.”

"There is only one person left, digging a grave."

"The crow alone will live and die."

The scarecrow sang a hoarse song, and the crows flapped their wings to make peace with it. The crow storm began to brew again, and this time, its target was set on a small town not far away.

The night is dark.

The devil groaned.

……………………

When Jarvan IV was still wondering why the Noxian army in Tobitsia Fortress suddenly moved out and then suddenly retracted, a piece of shocking news was sent to his camp.

In the Demacia Plains in the west of Tobitsia, there was a strange disappearance of people last night.

Ordinary missing people will obviously not alarm His Majesty the King, but this time the missing people are extremely unusual - because the missing people are more than 20,000 men, women and children, including five villages and two towns.

Did the Noxians go on a population raid yesterday?

Impossible. According to the Dragon Bird Knight's report, during the chaos three days ago, only a small number of Noxian teams crossed the Vol River to the west. The scattered number of people together could only be Barely a thousand.

Isn't this a joke that a team of this size goes to the interior of the Demacia Plains to plunder the population?

Just when Jarvan IV was confused, a more detailed report was sent over. It turned out that not only the residents of these villages and towns were missing, but all the livestock were also missing. On the contrary, the belongings of each household were empty. loss.

Although Jarvan IV did not understand magic, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and without any hesitation, he found Kyle and Morgana and told them the information without reservation.

After listening to Jarvan IV's description, the two sisters, who had never dealt with each other very well before, looked at each other for a rare few seconds and showed serious expressions at the same time.

"This is the devil." x2

At this moment, Kyle and Morgana finally spoke in unison.

Happy New Year!

I wish all readers good luck, financial resources, good health, and a happy family in the new year!
