The Glory of Noxus

Fosbello Town, in a dark alley.

Huo Jixing walked slowly, his spirit extended like a substance, always paying attention to his surroundings.

After receiving the news of the meeting, he immediately left the tavern and came to this slum area that seemed to be forgotten.

The surrounding environment is dim, the sunlight rarely touches it, and the narrow alleys are intricate.

The houses on both sides of the alley are dilapidated, with incomplete windows and crumbling doors.

From the broken windows, you can see the dark rooms inside, the messy furniture and the piles of debris, showing the embarrassment of the residents' lives.

There are piles of garbage on the streets where sewage flows.

Rotten food, discarded debris, animal carcasses

All kinds of filthy and dirty things were mixed together, emitting a suffocating stench.

Flies and rats shuttle among the garbage piles and have become common "residents" here.

Huo Jixing frowned. He didn't expect that there was such a filthy and dirty place in the small town of Fosbello.

He originally thought that the internal living environment of the Kingdom of Demacia would be better, but it seemed to be no different from the Noxus Empire.

Go around the alley corner.

Huo Jixing's eyes flashed when he saw the black rag hanging upright at the door.

Then he walked over and pushed open the broken wooden door.

Squeak!

The door opened, and the environment inside the house was dark.

Huo Jixing walked along the corridor to the back room and saw a figure in a black cloak sitting behind a moldy wooden table under the dim candlelight.

"A secret agent of the Reese Guard Corps?"

The figure in black cloak was the first to break the silence, his voice solemn.

Huo Jixing looked around and nodded: "Yes, but it seems that the person I made an appointment with is not you?"

"Your Majesty Silas, let me say hello to you." The figure in the black cloak said helplessly after a moment of silence.

"You broke the agreement."

Huo Jixing walked to the moldy wooden table with cold eyes.

"I'm sorry, Sir, Silas really can't leave." The figure in the black cloak stood up, and a flash of cyan energy lit up in front of him.

"I can represent His Majesty Silas."

"The devil?" Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be surprised.

Even before he came in, he could see the green luck rising on the person in front of him.

"No, we are not demon-possessed."

Hearing Huo Jixing's name, the figure in the black cloak became slightly agitated.

"We are the ones chosen by fate to destroy the Kingdom of Demacia and end the cruel system that has harmed them for so long."

Demon-stained is the name given to all people with magical abilities in the Kingdom of Demacia.

A derogatory term.

Demacians hate magic.

Anyone infected with demons who appears in the towns of the Kingdom of Demacia will be imprisoned or sentenced to death.

"How are you preparing?"

Huo Jixing changed the topic and no longer provoked the fragile nerves of the demon-contaminated person in front of him.

"It's almost done. I'll wait for the right time and then I'll take action." The demon-stained person suppressed his emotions.

"Your Majesty Silas, you are unable to come here because of this matter."

Huo Jixing took a breath and asked for the location information of this operation: "Location."

The secret mission he came to the Kingdom of Demacia to perform this time——

Assist the demon-stained forces headed by Silas to disrupt the situation in the Kingdom of Demacia.

When the Noxus Empire was shrinking its military strength, the Kingdom of Demacia took advantage of the situation and launched several attacks on the western battlefield, causing heavy losses to the Noxus Empire.

Huo Jixing's secret mission.

One is to transfer away from the Noxus Empire, and the other is to retaliate against the previous military actions of the Kingdom of Demacia.

Upon hearing this, the demon-stained man took out a letter from his arms and placed it on the table.

"Your Excellency, you can come over at any time. We welcome any friends who are on the opposite side of the Kingdom of Demacia."

Huo Jixing put it away, looked deeply at the demon-stained person, and put it in his arms.

The two fell into silence again, and the atmosphere in the dim room became even more depressing.

The demon-stained man looked past the black cloak and looked at Huo Jixing.

Cooperating with the Noxus Empire is an unknown but challenging move for the Demacians.

But there was nothing they could do.

A few months ago, Sylas Crown crossed the icy mountains of the north to the frozen tundra of the Freljord, seeking the cooperation of the ruthless raiders.

But such power is far from enough to shake the Kingdom of Demacia.

The demon-stained person looked out the window. The broken masonry and cracked walls silently told the hardships of the residents.

Even such a life is still out of reach for those who are possessed by demons.

In the Kingdom of Demacia, everything was doomed from the moment they had magical power.

Prisoner, or death!

Therefore, no matter what, they must take action to change their current situation and end the cruel system that has harmed them for a long time.

Huo Jixing was about to leave, but when he pushed open the broken wooden door, he thought of the rich darkness he encountered in the Lightbringer Temple, and tried to ask.

"The recent rumors of black magic in Fosbarrow Town are caused by you guys?"

"No." The demon-stained person shook his head in denial. "Get out of here as soon as possible."

"This town was once attacked by a demon, and Fosian Crownguard used a Demacian steel sword to pierce the monster's dark heart."

"It may be that the remaining power of the devil has returned to the world again."

"demon?"

Huo Jixing left the slum area and walked on the wide blue-gray ground, his mind surging.

In the long history of Valoran, there have been many rumors about demons.

Their power is either strong or weak.

The strong can rival gods, and the weak can rival legends.

Huo Jixing thought of the situation in Fosbyro Town. Perhaps, as the infected demon guessed, it was caused by the influence of the remaining power of the demon.

When he came to the street in front of the tavern, Huo Jixing stopped.

In the field of vision, the seemingly ordinary houses and streets became strange and unfamiliar under the cover of the dim light.

The blue flag flying outside the tavern gradually turned black.

"Damn it!"

Huo Jixing cursed in a low voice as the scorching fire of Nanli boiled in his body.

Then there was a red-gold glow in his eyes, and a faint black mist appeared over the town.

He immediately stepped towards the tavern, ignoring the sign of closing, and pushed the door in.

Creak!

Amid the harsh friction sound.

Huo Jixing suppressed his inner uneasiness, looked at Patapa behind the bar, and spoke in a firm voice.

"We can't stay in the town any longer, let's leave together."

Then, he told the speculation of the infected demon.

Patapa bent down and took out the snow-white Poro who was gnawing on the meat from under the bar, and a smile appeared on his face with traces of time.

"My lord, you can just leave."

"I still need to stay here, my identity is destined to be like this."

When the snow-white Poro saw Huo Jixing, it was like a squirrel, biting the meat in its mouth, quickly climbed onto his shoulder, and lay still.

Huo Jixing let the oil stains of the meat stains stain his clothes, and looked at Patapa steadily,

Seeing the slightly bent body, it was like an old tree that had experienced vicissitudes of life, swaying in the wind and rain, but always tenacious and unyielding.

"Take care." Huo Jixing nodded solemnly and turned to leave.

He vaguely knew why Patapa didn't leave.

An old spy of the Reiser Garrison Corps, facing the power of black magic, or even the power left by the devil, is bound to become a burden.

Huo Jixing put on his cloak and walked towards the city gate before the sun completely set.

There were not many pedestrians on the streets along the way, but he felt that some kind of terrifying existence was quietly growing.

It seemed that there was an invisible dark shadow jumping in the streets and alleys, connecting the residents of the town and trapping them firmly in this town.

From a distance, Huo Jixing saw the city gate that had not been closed yet, and quickened his pace.
