The Glory of Noxus

Da Da! Da Da!

The sound of horse hooves rang out, and Oram rode his warhorse and galloped quickly on the wide black stone road.

He looked back at the heavy city wall that was shaking behind him, and the fear in his heart was as difficult to calm down as the tide.

The terrifying figure of the flesh and blood giant bear was deeply engraved in the depths of his memory, completely frightening Oram's courage.

"How is it possible? How is it possible?"

Oram held the reins tightly, whispering with his pale lips, as if he still couldn't believe what he saw.

As the second heir of the Valrokan family, Oram has received strict education and training since he was a child.

He knows more about the secrets of Freljord on the other side of the Ironthorn Mountains than his sister Alyssa.

Even so, he was still frightened by the image of the flesh and blood giant bear he saw, and even began to doubt his own cognition.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

The pale-faced Oram ignored the civilians on the road, waved his whip, and hurriedly drove his warhorse to the destination.

For a moment, the panting of the warhorse and the sound of the horseshoe hitting the ground intertwined, becoming the only reality he could feel at the moment.

He realized that what he was facing was far beyond the scope of conventional understanding.

This was the ancient and wild power that had been hidden deep in the Freljord since its birth.

Oram exhaled lightly, trying to calm himself down.

He was the glorious successor of the Valrokan family. He could not be defeated by fear like this. He had to bring this news back to his father.

To the south of the Delver Castle, the towering buildings were attached to the towering mountains.

Even when night came, it was still brightly lit, just like daytime, telling the prosperous scene.

From a distance, the architectural style of the castle tended to be gorgeous.

The towering towers, exquisite carvings, and luxurious decorations all showed the owner's pursuit of gorgeousness and demanding details.

Valrokan Mansion.

The name of this magnificent castle.

It is not only the residence of the service officer of the Fort Delver, but also the residence of the Valrokan family.

And this honor is bestowed upon the Valrokan family by the Noxus Empire.

"Master Oram."

In front of the solid and heavy steel door, the armored guard saw Oram's figure and immediately stepped forward.

"Get out of the way!"

Oram jumped off the saddle with his skillful horsemanship, and then savagely pushed away the guard who came over.

He stepped onto the stone steps and entered the castle.

In the empty corridor, Oram's footsteps echoed, and every step could not hide his inner impatience and uneasiness.

The exquisite murals and complex decorations hanging on the walls on both sides could no longer attract his attention for even a moment.

"Where is my father?"

Oram's eyes crossed the corridor and asked the butler who followed closely beside him.

"My lord is handling affairs in the study."

The butler hurriedly stepped forward and answered with a slight bow.

Oram nodded, quickened his pace, and went straight to the study.

In the quiet study, soft magic lights fell, illuminating Valrokan's figure.

The great noble and warlord of the empire was sitting at the desk, holding a secret letter in his hand, frowning, as if thinking about something.

"Father!"

Oram pushed the door open and broke Valrokan's meditation.

Valrokan looked up at his pale son, and a complex emotion flashed across his calm face.

"Oram, you are still so impulsive."

He put down the secret letter in his hand and motioned Oram to sit down in front of him.

"Keep calm, and then tell me what happened to you?"

At this time, Oram should be patrolling on the city wall with Alyssa, always alert to the bear monsters outside the castle.

When Oram heard his father's words, a trace of shame appeared on his pale face, and he lowered his head, not daring to look his father in the eye.

But he recalled the flesh-and-blood giant bear he saw outside the city, and the look of horror reappeared.

"Father, I seem to know the origin of those bear monsters outside the city?"

"Oh?"

Valrokan exclaimed in surprise, looking at Oram, motioning him to continue.

"They are fanatical believers of the old god Volibear."

As Oram narrated, Valrokan's expression gradually became gloomy and solemn.

The violent bear monsters, the out-of-control beast spirit walkers, and the flesh and blood giant bear that appeared at the end.

They are not simply threats from Freljord.

Valrokan also completely understood the reason for Oram's horror.

The power of the old god Volibear!

When the bear monsters appeared around the Delverburg one after another, they had doubts.

Is this a sign that Volibear intends to get involved in the borders of the empire?

The ancient books left by the Valrokan family recorded that the immortal thunder Volibear once intended to conquer Freljord.

And his followers are the extremely barbaric and brutal bear people, who are very similar to the current bear monsters.

"Volibear, is he really coming again?" Valrokan whispered softly.

In many ancient myths that have been passed down, Volibear is the roar of thunder, the rolling thunderstorm, and Valhal.

He represents desolation, a giant bear that has been beaten by thousands of swords and guns, and the creator of Freljord.

Until the era when the three sisters were born, the rule of the demigods entered its final stage.

Then, the three sisters Avarosa, Celeda and Lissandra worked together to defeat the ancient demigods in the north and brought Freljord into a new era.

However, the cycle of history always seems to like to play such jokes.

After a long period of silence, the demigods who were once thought to have disappeared in the long river of history began to gradually revive.

The Valrokan family received news that the Winter Claw tribe and the Ursine tribe had started a protracted war over issues of faith and interests.

The Valrokan family even earned a lot of wealth for this.

If the old god Volibear really comes again, it will be a disaster that changes the situation for the Noxus Empire and Freljord.

Oram looked at Valrokan who fell into silence, as if he thought of something, and said in a slightly hurried tone.

"Father, the power of the old god Volibear is approaching the Delver Fort. We are no match for him. How about we agree to their request?"

Valrokan, who was thinking, immediately looked at Oram upon hearing this. His cold and cruel eyes swept over him, making him feel like he was falling into an ice cave.

"Shut up!"

He stood up, walked to the window, and stared at the vague shadows outside the city in the night, as if he could penetrate the darkness and see the battle on the city wall.

After a while, he turned around and looked at his son Oram and said.

"Fear is human nature!"

"But you, as my son, must learn to find strength in fear."

"Where is Alyssa? Did she come back with you?"

"Alyssa is still on the city wall, commanding the elite imperial regiment to resist the attacks of the bear monsters." Oram lowered his head and said in a stammering voice.

Valrokan paused, frowned and looked at Oram, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

"You go out."

"Okay, father."

Oram wanted to say something, but looking at his father's cold expression, he dared not refuse. After hurriedly bowing, he left the study.

The silent atmosphere was like an invisible mist, quietly lingering in every corner of the study.

Time seemed to be frozen here, and only the sound of the cold wind outside the window and the faint sound of fighting broke the silence.

After a long time, Valrokan crushed the secret letter in his hand and spoke slowly.

"Black Rose!"

A faint tiredness and helplessness appeared in his deep eyes, as if he was recalling the past, and seemed to be worried about the upcoming future.

"You can actually contact the bear tribe of the old god Volibear and cooperate with them."

Valrokan's eyes flickered. Every action of the Black Rose is not accidental, and there must be an unfathomable purpose behind it.

And this cooperation with the bear tribe of Volibear makes it even more difficult to guess its true intention.

Huh!

Valrokan exhaled lightly and looked at the black rose mark left on his palm after the secret letter was crushed.

The current wealth and glory of the Valrokan family are inseparable from the protection of the Noxian Empire.

He also saw the ruthless cleansing of the Black Rose by the Trifarii Council.

However,

Valrokan couldn't help but think of the secret connection with the Black Rose before.

Through the channels provided by the Black Rose, the Valrokan family sold imperial weapons and armor on a large scale and obtained a huge amount of wealth.

"It was greed that destroyed the glory of the Valrokan family." Valrokan whispered softly, looking helpless.

He understood that the Valrokan family was completely tied to the Black Rose at that time.

Once the matter was exposed, the only thing waiting for the Valrokan family was the ruthless abandonment of the Empire.

Valrokan walked out of the study and came to the white jade balcony, overlooking the Delver Castle, and the black rose mark in his hand flashed with purple light.

"Don't blame me, everything is for the continuation of the Valrokan family."

Rumble!

The sound of rolling rocks rang out on the bloody battlefield.

The majestic walls that had guarded the Delverburg for thousands of years could no longer hold out, and a corner collapsed, revealing the long stretch of buildings behind it.

"The will of God has come!"

Valrokan was well-informed, and he looked at the huge flesh-and-blood bear that was as huge as a mountain, and recognized the meaning of the power in his body.

The old god Volibear had revived.

As long as there were enough blood sacrifices, he could truly return to the world.

"What a good plan!"

Valrokan's thoughts surged, and he instantly figured out the Black Rose's plan and sighed.

Even without the Valrokan family, the Black Rose had made a perfect plan, and they would completely disrupt the situation on the northern border.

"Are they doing this out of a desire for power? Or is it to seek revenge for past humiliation? Or is this a deeper strategy against the Trifaree Council?"

Valrokan fell into deep thought, but could not find a clear answer.

But he knew that the Valrokan family must be more cautious in dealing with the next situation.

Because of the resurrection of the old god Volibear, things have become more complicated and dangerous.

"Then let's see if this blood sacrifice of the gods can completely awaken Volibear's consciousness and return to the wild ancient path?"

With the wild attack of the flesh and blood giant bear, the bloody battlefield seemed to be shrouded in an ancient and powerful field of power.

The air was filled with an atmosphere of oppression and awe, and the roar of the flesh and blood giant bear always shook the hearts and souls of the Noxian Empire soldiers.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

The hundreds of arms dancing wildly behind the giant flesh and blood bear were like demonic tentacles, waving various weapons and smashing against the city wall.

Under the relentless attack, the thick city wall could no longer hold its own, and the spiderweb-like cracks turned into a gap.

Fine rocks mixed with the falling Noxian soldiers fell into the dark and turbid waves.

The hunting animal lord looked at the gap in the city wall that appeared in front of him, raised his head and roared, breaking through all obstacles like a violent giant bear.

Behind him, the transformed giant bears of the beast spirit walkers followed the steps of the flesh-and-blood giant bears and broke into the Diver Fort, preparing to start a killing spree.

"The walls have fallen!"

"The walls have fallen!"

"The walls have fallen!"

On top of the wall, Alyssa, who had just stabilized her body, looked a little unbelievable when she heard the sounds coming from everywhere.

But she looked at the white and bone head of the giant flesh and blood bear in her field of vision, as well as the nearby tilted and collapsed watchtower.

Understand that things are true!

The wall that guarded the Druvofort for thousands of years has been lost.

Snap!

Just when Alyssa was stunned, the leader of the fighting group rushed over and threw her down to avoid the arm waving by the giant flesh and blood bear.

"You take away the remaining elite battle group soldiers and the personal guards of the Varrocan family, and protect the civilians and evacuate to Varrocan Castle."

The leader of the war group wiped off the mottled blood stains on his face and said to Alyssa in a deep voice.

"And you?"

Alyssa forced herself up and asked.

"I?"

The leader of the battle group stood up, grasped the sharp sword in his hand, and pointed at the bear monsters climbing up the wall.

"I am the leader of the battle group. It is my responsibility to lose the city wall. I will stay here to buy you as much time as possible to evacuate!"

"This is my mission and my honor!"

"No, this is Varrocan."

Alyssa still wanted to say something, but seeing the firm look on the leader of the battle group and the imperial soldiers surrounding her, she already understood their determination.

"I understand. I hope to see you again after the battle!"

She looked deeply at the leader of the battle group who was rushing towards the bear monsters, and immediately left the sloping city wall.

Just wait until Alyssa comes to the area where the Varrocan family's personal guards are responsible.

Her heartbeat was racing, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and she didn't understand what was happening.

This should be the area guarded by the Varrokan family, but now it is empty.

She looked around, and finally saw the family's personal guards evacuating hastily in the bright yellow flames.

"Damn, what are you doing?"

Alyssa looked at the direction in which the guards were leaving and fell into rage.

If you retreat in the face of battle and flee, all of them will be executed according to the laws of the empire!

At the same time, the Varrokan family will also be held accountable by the Trifali Council afterwards.

"It's all over!"

Alyssa looked at the flesh-and-blood giant bear that broke into the Diver Fort, and the endless stream of giant bears behind it, with a desperate expression.
