Chapter 185 Demacia Dragon Bird


Chapter 185 Demacia Dragon Bird

Forsbarrow Town.

The warm summer wind blows by.

The dark sky in the north suddenly lights up, like a new rising sun, bringing light.

Galen stood in the market square holding a giant sword. All the demon warriors around him had been wiped out.

While Galen was guarding, a warm wind blew past him, like the dawn in the middle of the night, driving away all the black mist.

A few moments later, a faint sound echoed in the market square.

The comatose townspeople began to slowly wake up, looking confused and at a loss.

“What’s going on?”

Seibato stared at what was happening in front of him, his eyes were shocked.

"It's Lux."

Galen looked into the countryside of the town and saw the light gradually disappearing, and the red flames that dimmed in an instant.

"There are also demon-stained ones!"

Hearing Galen's slightly deeper voice, Sabator and others looked at each other and remained silent in a tacit understanding.

In the Kingdom of Demacia, being possessed by demons is a taboo word no matter when and where.

Ta-ta! Ta-ta! Ta-ta!

Not long after waiting, Galen saw Lux returning riding Starfire, her long golden hair rippling in the air.

The two met at the entrance of the square. After looking at each other, they fell into silence.

Beside them were the residents of the town who had woken up. These people were depressed and had an obvious sense of guilt.

Although they did not remember what happened after Galen's execution, they knew that they had pushed a man to death.

"It's time to go back." Galen lowered his eyes and looked at the ground.

He was obviously aware of the changes in Lux, but now he did not want to face these things, nor did he want to keep thinking about this idea for too long.

The Kingdom of Demacia is now in a difficult time.

The many tribes of the Freljord in the north, the Noxus Empire in the east, and the power of the black magicians within are still shaking every inch of the kingdom's territory.

“Let’s go together.” Lux said softly when she saw the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion leading their horses.

The black magic incident caused by Fosian's Tomb is far from being as simple as it seems.

Lux got some information and needed to return to Mithril City to deal with everything.

As for the aftermath of Fosbello Town, Sister Pernilai of the Lightbringer Temple will be responsible for it.

According to Judge Giselle, Lux has no right to impose penalties and must leave it to Mithril City.

Mithral City.

This is a majestic city standing in the northwest region of the Kingdom of Demacia.

Looking from a distance, Mithril City looks like a shining crown among the mountains, standing on the top of the rocky plateau.

This city is dominated by gray and white, with undulating buildings of different heights.

The stone of each building is taken from the nearby highlands and has its own unique style and design, showing the special charm of Mithril City.

The tallest and majestic building is the castle of the Crownguard family. Like a sword representing justice and glory, it soars into the sky to protect this land.

In the center of the city, there is a winding river.

It surrounds the city. The clear river surface reflects the shadows of many buildings in Mithral City, and then pours down halfway up the mountain. The water falls like a ribbon, creating a magnificent and majestic waterfall.

In the southeast corner of the city, there is a quiet hotel.

Huo Jixing leaned against the window sill, closing his eyes and listening to the roaring sound of the waterfall, with a contented expression.

After leaving Forsbarrow Town, he went eastward and went straight to Mithril City.

It has to be said that Mithril City is worthy of being the center of the Northland.

The bustling scene here is comparable to that of the capital of Noxus.

Bah! Phew! Phew!

Suddenly, bursts of sharp and bright eagle calls sounded.

Huo Jixing opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

I happened to see a Demacian dragon bird flapping its wings and soaring among the clouds, leaving white ripples.

These Demacian dragonfowl are as shiny as pure metal sculptures.

Silver gray armor wings decorate the slender body, like light gray scales densely covered with inverted triangular wings, and the dim patterns flash with sharp cold light.

As their wings flapped, the Demacian dragonbirds disappeared into the mountains.

It is rumored that the Demacia dragon bird's nest is built in a remote frozen mountain peak, and it likes to soar among the clouds.

As for whether it is true or false, only the Crownguard family knows.

“Tsk, tsk, it is indeed the city of dragons and birds!”

Huo Jixing sighed inwardly as he looked at the Demacian dragons and birds that had escaped into the clouds.

Just the huge body of the Demacia Dragon Bird is not something that ordinary battle groups can deal with.

If coupled with a fully armed dragon and bird knight, perhaps a transcendent who has stepped into the realm of heroes will also have an unusual headache.

Crunch!

Huo Jixing opened the window, lowered his eyes, and looked at the flat street paved with gray and white rocks.

As far as the eye can see, Demacian figures are like surging tides, walking busy and orderly in the streets.

They were either in a hurry, stopping to chat, or quietly admiring the beauty of the city.

Everyone’s face is filled with smiles of satisfaction and happiness, as if this city is the paradise in their hearts.

But now Mithril City is under martial law.

Although it will not affect the prosperity of the city, there are soldiers from the Kingdom of Demacia patrolling day and night at intersections and strategic locations to prevent anyone from causing trouble.

"Is there martial law?"

Huo Jixing had something in mind when he saw the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia patrolling outside.

When leaving Fosian's Tomb, he mentioned to Lux that this black magic incident might be a trap.

And now this happens.

Presumably Lux and Galen have secretly returned to Mithril City and are observing the movement in secret.

Boom! Boom!

A rapid knock on the door came.

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, turned around and opened the door, and saw Dawn Bent standing at the door.

"There is urgent news."

Dawn spoke in a deep voice, with a slightly solemn look on his face, holding the opened letter in his hand.

Huo Jixing took the letter, took it out casually, and scanned the contents recorded on it.

[When Galen Crownguard was on a mission, he accidentally fell into the town of Forsbarrow. The Crownguard family was preparing to send the Demacia war group there. ]

"Are you taking action so soon?" Huo Jixing whispered in his heart.

Within two or three days, Lux and Galen had already begun to spread smoke bombs to disrupt everyone's vision.

Huo Jixing put away his thoughts, looked at Dawn, and asked: "What did Silas say? Can I contact you?"

Huo Jixing came to Mithril City At that time, according to the information location provided by the demon-stained person a few days ago, he had gone there secretly.

Only found that the building had been deserted, leaving no trace.

To do this, they had to contact Silas again.

Dawn Bent is the person in charge of the Reese Garrison Secret Office arranged by the Noxus Empire in Mithril City.

"We can't contact you at the moment." Dawn shook her head gently, hesitated for a while, and then spoke in a solemn voice.

"There are still two days until the agreed time. If we can't contact you, shall we take action?"

Huo Jixing looked to the north and saw the mountains. Eyes flashing: "Silas cannot be trusted."

"In the town of Forsbarrow, he violated our agreement and intended to drag Noxus into the quagmire."

"We have to be careful." Upon hearing this, Dao En looked deeply at Huo Jixing.

Who would have thought that the power of demons would remain in Fosian's tomb, but Huo Jixing escaped unscathed from this black magic incident.

He couldn't help but think of the news from the empire's high command, and he felt respect for Huo Jixing in his heart.

"Arrange people to stay at the mountain exit in the northern part of the Kingdom of Demacia." Huo Jixing thought for a while and ordered.

"No matter where they set off from, they must pass through the mountain exit before they can enter Mithril City."

In the intelligence information from the Reiser Guard Secretariat, Silas realized that his strength was insufficient.

Then he took his cronies and crossed the northern mountains to the frozen tundra of Freljord to seek new allies.

Now that Silas has returned to the Kingdom of Demacia, it means that he has found his allies.

Then their return route will definitely not bypass the northern mountains.

Huo Jixing recalled the complicated situation in the mountains and was a little curious. How did Silas and the others avoid the vanguard sentries all over the mountains?

Or is there someone inside Mithral City who is helping them disrupt the situation in the northern part of the Kingdom of Demacia?

"Okay." Dawn replied, making arrangements in a hurry.

Looking at Dawn's leaving figure, Huo Jixing closed the door, took out the intelligence information that Dawn had sent before, and browsed it again.

Most of the information collected by Leiser Guard Secret is about Mithril City and the Crownguard family.

A small number of people have news about the capital of Demacia.

Of all the news, the one that caught his attention the most was that Jarvan IV had been unable to inherit the throne!

This is different from the coup launched by Swain.

Jarvan IV is the only heir to the throne of Demacia, and he has the support of the Crownguard family.

Even so, he still cannot ascend the throne and can only handle the kingdom's government affairs as a prince.

In addition, there is another tidbit whose authenticity cannot be determined.

The death of Jarvan III may have something to do with Silas the Liberator.

"Very interesting thing." Huo Jixing tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his thoughts coming to mind.

The magical quagmire of the Kingdom of Demacia is much deeper than imagined.

The supreme throne, the internal strife of noble forces, and Silas who intends to destroy the kingdom.

"And the prison where the mage is imprisoned."

Huo Jixing's eyes fell out of the window, looking at the rolling mountains, thinking about his secret mission.

After Silas escaped from the capital of Demacia and came to Mithril City, he contacted Dawn through secret channels.

He wants to seek the power of the Noxian Empire and break the prison of Mithral City.

On the one hand, it is to win over more exiled mages, and on the other hand, it is to restart the war between Freljord and the Kingdom of Demacia.

"Hey, you want to show off to me, right?"

Huo Jixing put down the parchment in his hand and became active.

He is not a generous person and believes in retribution.

Since Silas activated the remaining nightmare power in Forsbarrow Town and put him in a desperate situation, don't blame him for completely muddying the waters.

Bringing your allies with you, intending to break into the prison of Mithril City?

I have some surprises for you. Huo Jixing thought secretly.

At the top of Mithril City, the Crownguard Family Castle.

After taking a rest, Lux's flawless face was full of energy, and her long golden hair fell down her shoulders.

She walked along the corridor of the family castle, looking at the familiar environment in the old house, and her memories surged.

Laxana Crownguard is her name, but she prefers others to call her Lux.

When she was very young, she still remembered that she and her brother Galen grew up in this old house. They were born into a distinguished Crownguard family and had inherited the responsibility of protecting the Kingdom of Demacia from generation to generation.

Their grandfather saved the king's life at the Battle of the Stormfang, and their aunt, Tyana Crownguard, was appointed commander of the Dauntless Vanguard before Lux was born.

Lux recalled that when she was six or seven years old, her brother Galen had already shouldered the responsibilities of the family and joined the army of the Kingdom of Demacia.

After he left home, Lux, under the arrangement of her mother, hoped to manage various family properties.

Even then she was very young and already began to hate this task.

Lux wanted to explore the world, to discover what lay beyond the walls and borders of Demacia.

She admired Galen, but when faced with Galen's stubbornness in persuading her to give up her ambition, Lux was full of complaints.

Until a change of fate, Lux accidentally awakened the torrent of magic deep in her body.

The power of refraction!

But she could only tremble in fear and nightmares.

Magic, the horror of Demacian mythology, is as much a part of her as the Crownguard's bloodline.

Fortunately, her status as Crown Guard allows her to avoid many things.

Lux began conducting secret experiments, playing with the sun in the courtyard, bending the light into solid shapes, and even creating shining human shapes in the palm of her hand.

Until the end, Lux was determined to keep this secret, hiding her abilities as much as possible.

Clang! Sonorous!

Lux came to the end of the corridor and heard sounds coming from the castle training ground.

Galen is exercising with Diadoru and the others.

It was said to be training, but in fact it was Galen who was competing with them, one against four, and gained the upper hand.

Lux stayed at the edge of the training area, looking at Galen in the field, her sea blue eyes twinkling.

She saw a blaze of revenge in Galen.

With his own efforts, Galen joined the Fearless Vanguard Legion very early and is the most talented person in the Fearless Vanguard Legion.

A title that possesses the power of Demacia.

But the past he wanted to protect died in an accident.

The enemy has no way of knowing, but it can be confirmed that it is related to the demon-stained person.

Lax sighed softly in her heart. After leaving Mithral City and going to the capital of Demacia, she truly saw the diversity of the world and its history.

Rather than the knowledge instilled by many tutors in Mithril City.

Nowadays, Lux has long understood that the Demacia way of life is not the only way. She sees her love for her motherland with her clear eyes.

At the same time, she also saw her sincere desire for the future.

At least magic will no longer be a taboo in the Kingdom of Demacia!

“What’s the matter?”

After finishing his training, Galen walked towards Lux's position with a giant sword on his shoulders, a thin layer of sweat covering his resolute face.

"I received news that Silas the Liberator has returned from the Freljord, and I don't know where he will end up yet." Lux's eyes flickered and she spoke softly.

"The black magic incident in Fosbarrow Town may be related to him."

Galen's eyes narrowed and his expression was stern: "Are you sure it's Silas?"

When he mentioned this name, he felt like he had tasted poison, and his eyes turned red.

Ever since the unexpected death of Jarvan III, he has begun to hunt for Silas, but this guy is very cunning and has disappeared from everyone's sight many times.

The reason why Galen returned to Mithril City was because he heard some rumors about Silas.

"It can be confirmed." Lux nodded lightly, but the figure of Huo Jixing emerged deep in her heart.

It was because of his reminder that the first thing Lux did when she returned to Mithril City was to conduct an in-depth investigation into the black magic incident in Forsbarrow Town.

Thus, he became aware of the demon-possessed person and the existence of Silas behind him.

"What did he want to do when he appeared near Mithril City?"

Galen looked at the rolling mountains, thought of many things that had happened recently, and sensed that a storm was coming.
