Chapter 18 Noxian Legion Advisor
Noxian Frontier.
The north wind is howling and the sky is covered with heavy snow.
On the winding ice mountain snow road, there is a group of four people, wearing gray and white fur cloaks, walking slowly forward.
Under the sparse snow, Huo Jixing's expression became increasingly pale, and with his body shaped like a withered bone, he looked a bit scary.
Although there were no looters chasing him during this journey, it was still difficult for him as he was still injured.
If it were not for the powerful healing ability of the Fire of Nanli, he doubted that he might be able to get out of the boundless Freljord.
Exhaling a breath of frost, Huo Jixing lowered his eyes, and dark green data flow filled his pupils.
[Name: Huo Jixing (seriously injured)]
[Quality: 0]
[Strength: 1.55 (-0.3)]
[Physique: 1.62 (-0.27)]
[Agility: 1.69 (-0.23)]
[Spirit: 3.43 ( +0.21)]
[Skills: Intermediate warrior, survival in the wild]
[Talent: Suzaku]
It can be clearly seen from the expanded data panel that attributes such as strength, physique, and agility are affected by the serious injury state and have a corresponding decrease.
Only the spiritual attribute is still outstanding, increasing instead of decreasing, far exceeding other data.
In addition to his mental attributes, Huo Jixing also digested the gains from the encounter during the difficult return journey.
In terms of skills, he has improved slightly.
Be broad-minded and knowledgeable, dedicated and refined.
Huo Jixing plans to continue training in swordsmanship after returning to the camp, and may be able to return to [Advanced Warrior].
In terms of [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku], after this period of exploration and experimentation, Huo Jixing gained a deeper understanding, and also analyzed the reasons that made him unbearably hungry and thirsty before.
Under normal conditions, the fire of Nanli given by [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku] can strengthen and improve physical fitness without loss.
From this point alone, we can see the abnormality of talent and the fundamental changes it brings.
However, once Huo Jixing starts to truly use the power of Nanli Fire, he must provide enough [firewood] for burning.
As for [firewood], Huo Jixing understood it as his own flesh and blood.
The hunger that almost made him lose his mind before was because he used too much power of Nanli Fire.
Although he killed many looters, beast spirit apprentices and frost-tooth giant wolves in one fell swoop, he turned the tide and helped the building to collapse.
But the price afterwards was too much for him to bear. He almost fell into animality and killing because of hunger and thirst, and was unable to extricate himself.
As for the moves that were used unconsciously in that encounter.
[Suzaku·Runwu]
It can be said to be the epiphany of life and death, or it may be the result of [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku] The spark of inspiration given.
Even now, his mind is still somewhat immersed in the violent flames not long ago. The brilliant and terrifying power, like the rising sun, instantly suppressed the cold wind, frost and snow, and was extremely threatening. The roaring flames destroy everything they touch.
Of course, Huo Jixing also tasted the bitter consequences of dying.
Just swinging the sword to perform this move almost burned all the flesh and blood in his body.
Going around the corner of the snowy road.
The scenery changes, and a towering barrier can be seen in the distance like a vine clinging to the mountainside.
The red flags were fluttering, and the sound of drums and horns pierced the clouds.
“Back!”
In front of the snowy road, Eric stopped and looked at the majestic Noxian camp. His expression kept changing, and finally turned into a smile.
"Yes, I'm finally back!" Huo Jixing breathed a sigh of relief, his pale expression much more relaxed. He looked back at DeWitt and Moore. Along the way, the two of them were not as afraid as before.
Due to the influence of moral concepts from the previous life, Huo Jixing still maintained a normal mentality after awakening to the transcendent. Although their previous relationship had changed, they could still talk normally. There was no What do you mean by being aloof and bossy?
Looking into the distance, Huo Jixing stared at the snow-covered Freljord under the sunset, with many emotions welling up in his heart.
It was just a normal scout mission, but due to a sudden encounter, the Noxian scout team that was full at the time of departure was reduced to only four people when they returned, and they all suffered minor or serious injuries.
"Noxus, Winter's Claw!"
Huo Jixing thought of this war that would continue, shook his head slightly, and followed Eric's footsteps toward the camp.
The mountain road paved with bluestones extends from the foot of the mountain to the camp. A long stream of red people seems to be pouring down. Occasionally, some Noxian cavalry squads can be seen escorting carriages covered with linen at high speed. Towards the distance.
As they walked along the bluestone road, the state of Huo Jixing and his party quickly attracted everyone's attention.
The bloody and damaged armor, the embarrassed and injured figure, and the faint smell of blood surrounding him made every Noxian soldier who passed by look at him in awe.
The Noxus camp is located on the mountainside, about 40 to 50 kilometers away from the Freljord. Coupled with the cold wind, frost and snow along the way, the smell of blood has not washed away the whole body. You can imagine And I know how brutal the battle was.
There are no obstacles and no unexpected episodes.
Captain Eric took Huo Jixing and the others into the Noxian camp safely.
In front of the rest area, Eric looked at the tired Huo Jixing in front of him and said softly: "Go back and rest first. I will report on this scout mission and your awakening."
Huo Jixing twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a grateful smile: "Thank you, Captain, I'll leave first!"
He really couldn't stand it anymore, especially after returning to the Noxus camp. It seemed like a heavy burden had been lifted off me, but I just felt physically and mentally exhausted and weak.
Hurrying back to the stone house, Huo Jixing opened the wooden door and fell asleep without washing at all, snoring gradually.
The next morning.
The winter sun is a bit chilly, falling like icy rain on every corner of the camp.
Huo Jixing opened his bloodshot eyes and looked through the narrow window at the crimson color remaining in the sky. He then rubbed his tired face, stood up quickly, and walked towards the canteen of the camp.
He woke up from hunger!
Ever since he experienced the hunger and thirst that nearly destroyed his sanity, Huo Jixing has added hunger and thirst to his annoying options.
The dining hall of the Noxus camp is located at the edge of the rest area.
It is said to be a canteen, but it is more like a place to eat in a big pot. Huge iron pots are filled with different foods and placed on the dining table.
Perhaps it was too early, and there were not many people in the spacious canteen.
Huo Jixing received a rice bowl from the soldier who was serving food. It was filled with food, mostly vegetables, mixed with some meat, and a few thick pieces of flour cake piled on top.
Looking for a corner, Huo Jixing didn't care about the image and started to devour it.
After a cup of tea, he finished a bowl of food and his stomach was somewhat full.
I wanted to grab some more, but considering that his body was still seriously injured, he waited until he had finished digesting it and had some more at noon.
After cleaning the rice bowl, Huo Jixing walked back slowly, digesting the food while observing the changes in the camp.
More than half a month has passed, and the camp has become increasingly solemn. The dark clouds of war have enveloped both inside and outside, and many Noxian soldiers with hurried looks can be seen.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but think of the destroyed Noxian outpost, and his heart sank.
The border, which was already filled with smoke, seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable direction, and as soldiers of the Noxian Chapter, they all fell into the vortex of war involuntarily.
“Huh?”
Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly and saw a middle-aged man wearing a red and gray robe, stopping in front of his stone house.
