The Glory of Noxus

Hearing Tibers's terrified voice.

Annie looked at Huo Jixing in a panic, not knowing what to do?

If it was normal, if someone dared to snatch her little bear, she would directly release her fire magic, summon Tibers, and tear the enemy apart.

The current situation really made her a little embarrassed.

This noble lord in a simple coat seemed to have a high status in the hearts of his father and Uncle Huo Jixing.

"It's okay, His Majesty Swain just took a look, and I'll give it back to you later." Huo Jixing scratched Anne's nose and said with a smile.

"Oh, is that so."

Annie agreed, loosened her left hand that was tightly holding Tibers, and let Swain take Tibers away.

"You crazy guy, who are you?" Tyberk said angrily.

He smelled an extremely dangerous breath from the mortal in front of him.

This is a demon far more powerful than himself!

And this guy actually imprisoned the demon in his body and could use the power of the demon at will.

Swain seemed not to hear what Taberk said, and carefully observed the Shadow Bear toy in his hand.

"It seems that you have been sealed by the Black Rose for too long and don't know the current situation of the Noxus Empire."

Tibek didn't say anything, but stared at Swain with cold eyes.

As a fire demon, he had followed Mordekaiser to witness the establishment of the Noxus Empire from scratch, from chaos to glory.

As long as he reappears in the world again, the Noxus Empire should worship him.

But now, he heard a bad premonition from Swain's words, as if the current Noxus Empire has changed dramatically.

Swain glanced at Taberk's black pupils and thought secretly.

Based on the information provided by Huo Jixing and the intelligence investigated by the Reiser Garrison Corps, the general outline of this incident gradually emerged in his mind.

"Amorin was once a test subject in the Black Rose's magic experiment. She has an extraordinary talent for fire magic and is likely to be the vessel of the fire demon Tyberk."

"But during the magic experiment, Amorin escaped unexpectedly, and Tyberk broke free from the seal."

"The Black Rose is preparing to steal the power of the demon."

"No, with their plan, it will never be that simple, Tyberk."

Swain's eyes condensed, and his expression fell on Tyberk solemnly,

"What the Black Rose really covets is the power of the Iron Armored Wraith Mordekaiser."

Tyberk was hanging in the air, and being stared at by Swain, his soul trembled, and he wanted to abandon this body.

But he was unwilling to give up after all, and wanted to see if there was still room for struggle.

"You are now in the Immortal Fortress, can you sense the power of Mordekaiser?"

Swain's eyes glowed with scarlet light, observing whether Tyberk would have obvious emotional fluctuations.

Taberk didn't want to answer, but under Swain's cold gaze, he could only suppress his inner resentment.

Others are at the mercy of others.

He lowered his eyes and muttered.

"I can't sense it."

Swain nodded slowly, his face full of coldness.

"The real purpose of the Black Rose is the Iron Wraith Mordekaiser!"

Taberk heard this, and the plush toy instantly ignited a deep red flame, and the anger in the button eyes was not concealed.

"How is it possible? Just relying on those black magicians, they also want to covet the power of the master?"

"The great Mordekaiser will eventually return to the material realm."

Swain looked at Taberk with pitiful eyes, leaning on the black cane, and returned him to Annie.

"But you failed!"

Taberk did not show a happy expression because he returned to Annie's arms.

Swain's words blew through his heart like a cold wind, making him feel uneasy.

Taberk couldn't help but recall the rebellion in the ancient palace.

It was a nightmare he could not forget.

In that cruel war, the coalition forces of many tribes contacted the black magicians who suddenly appeared and defeated the Iron Armor Wraith.

And cut off the connection between Mordekaiser's soul and armor, causing this once invincible existence to fall into eternal silence.

And he and Shadow Fiend, as pets around Mordekaiser, also suffered heavy losses in this rebellion.

They were defeated by the black magicians and turned into water drops sealed in a bottle.

Taberk thought of the life in the seal, and his eyes were a little afraid.

It was an unspeakable bondage that made them unable to move, dark, and unable to exert their own power.

However, fate did not seem to completely abandon Taberk.

In an accidental opportunity, a trace of Taberk's demonic power miraculously escaped the seal.

He felt the long-lost freedom and the desire for power.

Taberk understood that this was his chance to get rid of the seal and regain his freedom.

Swain did not look at Tyberk again, but looked at Huo Jixing.

"Walk with me."

Huo Jixing put away his surprised expression.

He did not expect that the fire demon Tyberk trapped in Tibers' body would be Mordekaiser's pet.

"Iron Armored Wraith!"

Huo Jixing whispered softly, took Annie, followed Swain's steps, and walked to the side hall.

The so-called side hall was just a slightly small living room, which rarely received people.

The silence and emptiness in the room surprised Huo Jixing a little.

There was almost no furniture around, only an ancient scroll hanging on the wall.

Huo Jixing's eyes naturally fell on the scroll.

On the scroll, the traces of time are clearly visible. Although the colors are somewhat mottled, the deep and ancient atmosphere can still be felt.

The content of the scroll shows an armored giant fighting. He defeated the desperate mortal warriors with a heavy and brutal war hammer.

Beside the giant, there are two ferocious and powerful monsters.

One end is like a black shadow, with a strong body and agile movements, as if it can shuttle freely in the darkness.

On the other end was a flame. Its body was wrapped in blazing fire, exuding a fiery aura, and every roar seemed to ignite the battlefield.

Huo Jixing stood in front of the scroll, staring at the painting and feeling familiar.

He remembered that he had seen a similar scene on the stone carvings in the empire's treasury.

"This is a scroll preserved by the empire. The character in it is none other than the ancient king Iron-Armored Wraith Mordekaiser."

Swain touched the edge of the ancient scroll and murmured softly.

"And just through the conversation with Tyback, I completely understood the true purpose of the black rose magic experiment."

He turned around, tilted his chin, and his eyes didn't know where to land.

"Do you remember the wanted object I told you before?"

Huo Jixing nodded slightly, remembering that he had seen the wanted portrait before and at the gate of the capital.

"Iron Girl Riel, this is the name Black Rose gave her." Swain said.

"She has almost the same identity as Amorin. She is an experimental subject who escaped from the black rose magic experiment."

"Her extraordinary ability is very special and unique. It is magic that has never been seen in hundreds of years——"

"The power to manipulate metal!"

When Huo Jixing heard this, his pupils tightened, and he instantly understood the importance of Rui Er's experiment with black rose magic.

Metal, armor.

This is probably the most extraordinary ability for the Iron-armored Wraith Mordekaiser.

"It seems you understand."

Swain tapped his black cane with his fingers, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

"But because of Black Rose's magic experiment, Riel is very hostile to the empire."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I arranged for the soldiers of the Leiser Guard Corps to contact Ruier secretly, hoping to get good news."

Swain stared at the ancient scroll in front of him, his eyes firm and cold.

He seemed to read the cruelty of the past and the coming storm from his delicate and mottled brushstrokes.

"Black Rose wants to extract the power from that armor. I will never allow such a thing to happen."

According to Imperial records, Mordekaiser's power is obsessed with slaughter and destruction.

His once brutal conquests almost wiped out a whole generation of Noxian Empire into the dust of history.

"With your power, you still can't stop those black magicians." Tybok in Annie's arms said quietly.

He admitted that the strength of Swain and Huo Jixing was terrifying, enough to scare most people away.

But the dark magicians hiding in the dark once defeated Mordekaiser at his peak and two powerful demons including him.

"I deeply understand that decisions will always have consequences." Swain did not pay attention to Tibbers' words.

"But if you don't do it, who can know the real result."

Taibok stopped talking, seemed to put away his consciousness, and returned to the state of a shadow bear toy.

Swain stepped out of the side hall and returned to the audience hall. He looked at Huo Jixing curiously, with appreciation on his face.

Although he had some understanding of Huo Jixing's strength, he really didn't expect that he could defeat Evelin, the Embrace of Pain.

"Your strength has improved again."

Huo Jixing did not deny it, showing a humble and confident smile.

He talked about the fierce battle that took place in Snow Ridge Town, and mentioned the help that the things in the Empire's treasury brought to him.

After listening, Swain nodded slightly and said that someone had gone to deal with the tragic scene left by Evelin.

Huo Jixing said there was no need to worry.

He already knew in his heart that Huo Jixing's growth was a good thing for the empire.

After chatting for a while, Huo Jixing stood up, said goodbye to Swain, and then left the audience hall with Annie.

night.

In the silent bedroom.

Huo Jixing sat upright on the bed, opened the data panel, and focused on his skills and talents.

"During the previous battle, I seemed to have transformed into a Suzaku?"

He recalled the scene during the battle with Evelin, the state in which he fought with all his strength at the last moment.

At that time, in order to burn the fire of Nanli to the maximum, he poured into the energy of Donghua Yimu, and unconsciously controlled Nanli Suzaku.

It was also that blow that cut off a small section of Evelin's arm.

"Could it be the combination of the power of the stars and the path of skills that pushed me to enter a special state?"

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered and he began to think secretly.

With the blessing of many star talents, his skills have gone a long way in conquering the masters.

"You can try it."

He made a decision to use this as one of his training directions and try it later.
