Chapter 452 The Imperial Plan Iron-Armored Ghost (Additional update for the alliance leader’s wandering passer-by)


Chapter 452: The Imperial Plan: The Iron-Armored Ghost (Added update for the alliance leader’s wandering passer-by)

The side hall of the audience hall, in front of the white jade balcony.

In the dim sky, the blue starlight intertwined with the lights at the banquet, reflecting the scene on the balcony.

Katrina leaned on Huo Jixing's thick shoulders and felt the warm power sweeping through her trembling heart.

“Why am I here?”

She asked with a confused expression, unable to remember what happened before.

In Catalina's impression, she should have been in the main hall of the banquet, talking to people close to the Du Cacao family.

But when she came back to her senses, she unexpectedly found herself lying in Huo Jixing's arms, and the surrounding environment was extremely quiet.

Facing the sudden change, Catalina instinctively felt a little uneasy and frightened.

She tried to recall the previous scene, but she couldn't remember anything in her mind, as if nothing had changed at all.

She even doubted whether there was something wrong with her memory, but the warm embrace made her no longer dwell on the past.

Huo Jixing held Catalina in his arms, sniffing the fragrance between his noses, and secretly thinking about Evelin's purpose and the things she mentioned.

Evelin's ability is so weird that she can invade the banquet silently and lead Catalina to a no-man's land.

With Katarina’s heroic strength, she was unable to resist Evelin.

The most important thing is that Evelin does not have any intention of persecution, it is just pure temptation.

This resulted in the protective measures Huo Jixing left for Catalina unable to fully function.

In addition, there is also the matter of the authority of death that Evelin mentioned.

Huo Jixing's thoughts drifted involuntarily to the stage performance of "Qian Jue's Fables" he just watched in the audience hall.

This performance unveiled the Yonghunting Twins in a unique art form.

The sheep spirit represents the mercy of death.

If one calmly faces the silver long bow in the hands of the sheep spirit, then she will gently guide the deceased to another world.

Let them march towards the land of the underworld in painless solitude.

In sharp contrast to the sheep spirit is the wolf spirit, which represents the cruelty of death.

If you resist and struggle to face death, the cold wolf spirit will appear as a hunter and happily enjoy the process of hunting.

And such games often end in tragic death, full of fear and despair.

Awakening people's deepest fears about where life ends.

"Who would steal the power of death?"

Katrina hugged Huo Jixing, the tip of her nose lightly touched her shoulder, and she suddenly frowned.

“You smell wrong!”

She smelled a very different smell left on Huo Jixing’s body, a very strange smell.

Definitely not Anne's.

But a completely unfamiliar atmosphere.

Huo Jixing paused and looked at Catalina in his arms, noticing the confusion in her eyes.

“You also saw the scene at the banquet, maybe you happened upon it by accident.”

Huo Jixing frowned slightly, concealing the process of Evelin seducing Catalina.

I haven't fully believed it yet after meeting Catalina.

He quickly kissed Catalina gently, trying to calm her doubts with this kiss.

While Catalina was struggling slightly, Huo Jixing's eyes inadvertently fell on the bottom of the white jade balcony.

There, Evelin, who had escaped into the shadows, reappeared like a ghost, looking at them with a smile, with complicated emotions in her eyes.

It seems to be admiring and longing for.

However, Evelin did not stay long.

The black shadow behind her was twisted and blurred, enveloping her and disappearing.

Huo Jixing looked solemn, if he could easily destroy the demon, he would definitely not let Evelin leave so easily.

Thinking of the devil's immortality, Huo Jixing had no choice but to give up.

First, Evelin did not harm Catalina, but simply seduced her, pretending to be Catalina with demonic power.

The second is the news brought by Evelin.

Indirectly proves that she has no deep ill intentions towards herself and Catalina.

"What on earth is the pale lady doing? Is it related to the power of death?"

Huo Jixing thought of the previous incident that happened in the Northland town. Evelin was hired by Black Rose to target her. He takes action.

Then it is very likely that the pale lady and the black rose were behind this sneaking into the banquet.

As late night fell, the banquet in the audience hall gradually came to an end.

After expressing their last blessings and respects to Catalina, the nobles present stood up to say goodbye.

This celebration banquet provided a political stage for many people to show their talents and obtain benefits they had never thought of before.

When Huo Jixing was about to leave the audience hall, as soon as he went out, he saw the soldiers of Leise Guard Corps walking towards him and speaking respectfully.

"Excuse me, Lord Huo Jixing, Lord Catalina, and Commander Swain invite you to come together."

Hearing the words of the soldiers from the Leather Guard Corps in front of them, Huo Jixing and Catalina looked at each other, a little surprised.

Why did Swain suddenly invite them?

But they did not refuse and followed the steps of the soldiers of the Reiser Guard Corps towards Swain's residence.

Huo Jixing and Katarina walked through the long corridor. The walls on both sides were hung with exquisite murals depicting the history and glory of Noxus.

Finally, they penetrated deep into the towering and fortress of the Immortal Fortress and came to Swain's residence.

The bright yellow candle burned, emitting a warm glow, illuminating the simple and plain living room.

Huo Jixing and Catalina looked a little solemn as they pushed the door open and entered.

The scene that came into view made Huo Jixing raise his eyebrows slightly, very unexpectedly.

In the living room, three people representing the Trifali Council were all present.

Knox Eddy’s long-term plan, Swain!

The force of Knox Cree, Darius!

The cunning of Knox Talley, the Faceless One!

Swain was dressed in old aristocratic clothing and sitting on the stone chair at the main seat, with a serious and pensive face and sharp and deep eyes.

Darius sat on the right side of Swain with a casual expression, leaning on the back of the chair, beating drums on the wooden armrest of the chair with his armored-gloved hands.

When he saw Huo Jixing and Catalina arriving, he nodded slowly.

The Faceless Man was still wearing long, layered robes and showed no emotion.

In addition, there are other heroes in the living room.

Those who did not appear at the banquet originally appeared one by one at this moment.

The Furious Knight Kled sits below Darius, and behind him is the Glory Executioner Draven.

Behind them were Riven, the Blade of Exile, and Talon, the Shadow of the Blade.

In addition to the arrival of Huo Jixing and Katarina, most of the heroes of the Noxus Empire are here.

Huo Jixing thought of the flock of eating crows he noticed along the way, and understood that there must be something very important.

Swain looked at Huo Jixing and motioned for him to sit under him.

Huo Jixing nodded slightly and walked over with Catalina.

“I got the news.”

Swain let out a breath, slowly glanced at every hero present, and spoke solemnly.

"The pale lady and the black rose are planning a very important thing." "It is very likely to be related to the legendary iron-armored ghost!"

Listen When the Iron Armor Wraith arrived, most of the heroes present changed their colors.

The Pale Lady and the Black Rose are the most mysterious organizations in the Noxus Empire, and their actions always hide unfathomable purposes.

The existence of the Iron Armor Wraith is an indelible mark in the history of the Noxus Empire.

Killed twice, reborn three times.

Iron-armored Wraith Mordekaiser used his unparalleled power to create the glory of the empire in ancient times.

Although he was obsessed with massacre and destruction, his constant conquests almost wiped out the lives of an entire generation.

But the mark he left has always affected the development and destiny of the empire, leaving a profound mark.

In every history book, the legendary story of Mordekaiser and Death Armor is recorded.

Every Noxian will never forget the glory of ancient times, because it is their pride and glory.

Mordekaiser's presence can be felt in every corner of the empire.

Whether it's in a majestic castle or a remote village, his mark is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

His story was sung as a myth and became part of the empire's culture.

However, due to some unknown factors, Mordekaiser's influence has gradually weakened in recent hundreds of years.

Some people are secretly erasing his mark, even knocking down his statues one after another and smashing their faces.

“Underworld, death!”

Huo Jixing had some realization and understood what Evelin said about the power of death.

“So, Qianjue is also paying attention to the changes in the capital?”

Swain leaned forward, his serious old face filled with cold murderous intent, and his eyes revealed determination and firmness.

“I decided to take action directly to completely eliminate the black rose that pierced the empire’s bloodline and crush the pale lady’s plan.”

As Swain’s words fell, the heroes present showed signs of Different mood changes.

Some people clenched their fists, looking excited and expectant; some people looked solemn, slightly confused and worried.

Both the pale lady and the iron-armored ghost have a profound influence on the empire.

Once they start taking action, the stabilized empire will definitely fall into chaos again.

But no one spoke up to object.

Because they understand that Swain bringing it up now shows that he is ready to fight.

They trusted Swain's judgment and decision-making abilities, knowing that this imperial planner would not make decisions lightly.

Swain’s gaze fell on Huo Jixing and swept across the heroes present.

He knew the responsibility he had to make his decision, but he had to do it.

Only through fighting and sacrifice can the peace and tranquility of the Empire be preserved.

Otherwise the pale lady gets the power of the Iron-Armored Ghost, then the empire that has regained its glory is likely to change hands again.

"Riven, you cooperate with Talon and Draven, and I will instruct General Darius to hand over the strength of the nearby war group to you."

Swain He straightened his body, stared at Riven, Talon, Draven and others, and ordered in a deep voice.

"After the plan begins, your task is to suppress all the important towns near the capital and ensure that no force enters the capital."

Swain is definitely a master of coups.

A one-night coup deprived the former leader of Noxus, Brown Darkwill, of all his rights.

His resourcefulness and decisiveness are unrivaled in the Noxian Empire.

“I have secretly contacted the iron girl Riel, and she and Mad Rose Berea will take action at that time to involve the power of the black rose.”

Riel and Belea are both the experimental products of Black Rose, and they hate Black Rose extremely.

Before the operation begins, Swain will provide them with a Black Rose stronghold near the capital to disrupt the situation.

"Katrina, you and Kled are responsible for the order in the capital, and the elite Trifari Legion will be handed over to you." Swain continued.

"Huo Jixing, Darius, and you will act with me, our target is the Pale Lady."

"The Faceless Man and the Assassin's Guild behind him will fight for We provide all the intelligence information.”

In the living room, Swain's deep voice echoed, arranging all the next things in an orderly manner.

He makes every consideration and considers every detail clearly.

It is necessary to turn the capital into an iron barrel during the operation, and no one can enter or exit.

When Swain's arrangements were over, the heroes present slowly left.

Huo Jixing was not in a hurry to leave. He stepped forward to say hello to Riwen without waiting for a detailed chat.

He heard Swain's words unexpectedly.

"Huo Jixing, don't leave yet. I have something to discuss with you." Swain's voice was low and powerful, making people irresistible.

In the quiet living room.

Swain leaned back in his chair, looked at Huo Jixing with a smile, and told him his arrangement.

“I am going to let you serve as the commander of the Reese Guard Corps. What do you think?”

Commander of the Reese garrison?

In the Noxus Empire, the Reiser Garrison is definitely the ace among aces, and it is also the most important force in Swain's hands.

Huo Jixing subconsciously looked at Swain in front of him, understanding the meaning behind this appointment.

Are you planning to consider yourself a candidate to be the leader of the empire?

Huo Jixing hesitated for a while. To be honest, he was not very interested in these positions and just wanted to improve his strength.

In terms of foresight, he is inferior to Swain.

Swain is always able to understand the situation and formulate exquisite plans.

In terms of command, he is not as good as Darius.

As the commander-in-chief of the empire, Darius has strong leadership and military talents, and can lead the imperial battle group to victory.

In terms of cunning, the empire has assassin guilds both inside and outside the empire.

They are good at lurking, assassinating and intelligence gathering, and are the empire's secret weapons.

Even the Reiser Garrison is not as good as them in some aspects.

Only in terms of force, Huo Jixing is confident enough in himself.

This is why he is not worried.

As long as he breaks the legendary boundary, he will directly reach the pinnacle of Valoran.

He will no longer be disturbed.

Even fate can be controlled in one's own hands.

Fist means power.

Only Huo Jixing has absolute power and has power that surpasses everyone.

No matter who is in the Noxus Empire, they must bow their heads and surrender when facing themselves.

This is far more desirable than the identity of a leader of the Reese Guard Corps.

Swain saw Huo Jixing's hesitation and didn't pay too much attention to it. With his strength, he couldn't peek into his heart.

"Don't worry, just give me an answer after this operation is over."
