The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 183 The light is gone and darkness is approaching.

A cold light flickered over the market square.

Galen held the golden hilt and waved the giant sword resolutely.

Clang!

As the silver sword light flashed across, Aldo's head fell, and the surging blood poured onto the ground of the square like a fountain.

Rumble!

Seeing Aldo's death, the crowd in the town burst into cheers, and everyone looked crazy.

At the same time, Aldo's body fell into the square.

Where they couldn't see, the dim black mist was penetrating into their bodies through their open mouths and noses.

Gululu!

Aldo's head, dripping with blood, rolled to the feet of Judge Giselle.

The woman with the bronze wings emblem crossed Lux, squatted down, and looked into Aldo's angry eyes as if she had received revenge.

She was about to say something.

Suddenly!

A thick, chilling black smoke rolled out of Aldo's body, like the dark mucus that gurgled in the corpse pit, condensing into a black shadow in front of Judge Giselle.

It bared its teeth and claws, its eyes were filled with fire, and it burst out from its red head, roaring silently at the surrounding crowd.

"Ah!"

Judge Giselle was shocked, screamed loudly, staggered back, and accidentally fell to the ground.

But the dark ghost seemed to be staring at her, with thick black smoke passing through its body in an instant.

Then it dissipated like embers in the wind.

Lux could feel its last breath at the moment of death. This energy was so evil and resentful, as if its existence was to show its power to mortals.

Judge Giselle couldn't hold it any longer and cried in horror, seeking safety with her bloodshot eyes.

But Lux couldn't help but fall into a nightmare because she felt the presence of black mist again.

In the dark world, the decaying smell of the tomb fills the nose.

Lux saw her future, the fear of being buried alive in the mud, the fear of being expelled from Demacia by her brother, the fear of many slow and painful deaths.

Buzz!Buzz!

The pure white light shines.

The power of refraction within Lux was fighting against these horrific sights.

And she also drove the smell of death out of her mouth and nose, and her breath was filled with light.

"Lax"

Galen frowned, clenched the giant sword in his hand, and walked over, trying to calm Lux's mood.

He thought that Lux couldn't stand the bloody scene in front of her.

But when Lux woke up, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

Although there was a lot of noise around him, he fell into a nightmare again.

Lux put away all her emotions, looked away from the crying Judge Giselle, and landed on Galen.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she felt that the power of refraction in her body was turning into a huge surge, purifying the black mist that soaked into her internal organs.

The small town crowd seemed to be under the effects of a spell.

He remained motionless and silent, staring at them with dark eyes.

"Lux, what's going on?"

Galen looked at the people in the square with a gloomy expression.

The soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion beside him went into alert state and gathered around their captain.

Hearing this, Lux blinked hard to drive away the last horrific scene imprinted in her mind, and looked along Galen's gaze.

In an instant!

The residents of Forsbarrow seemed to have been harvested by the god of death. They fell to the ground one after another, and the breath of life suddenly disappeared from their bodies.

Lux gritted her teeth and stood up with her knees in hand.

"How is this going?"

Huo Jixing let out a breath and stood behind Lux, unsheathing his sword: "Look into the distance!"

As his words fell, Lux and Galen looked at the distant sky at the same time.

The blazing sun completely disappeared outside the city wall of Forsbarrow, and an almost solid black mist covered the sky over the town like a cover.

In the quiet market square, strange black and translucent shadows slowly rose from the unconscious residents.

Each black figure is different, like an army of demons that existed in ancient myths.

There are giant spiders, multi-headed pythons, demon warriors holding ice axes, huge dragons with black teeth and sharp teeth, and all kinds of things beyond ordinary people's cognition.

"Black magic, the power of the devil!" Galen looked solemn.

His experience fighting in the Kingdom of Demacia over the years has allowed him to see many extraordinary things hidden beneath the kingdom.

These resurrected demonic armies are approaching everyone without any reason.

From a distance, it looks like a nightmare-like tide of fear, intent on drowning out all traces of life.

"I have a way to stop this."

Lux smelled the tomb smell in the air and completely understood the origin of the black mist, but her strength could not stay here to fight.

Now she can only believe that with the power of the Fearless Vanguard Legion, she can fight against the demon army in front of her.

"How to do it?"

Galen stared intently at the approaching demon army.

"Don't worry about what I do." Lux bit her lip, jumped up, grabbed Starfire's mane, and climbed onto the horse's back neatly.

"Just...don't die before I come back."

"Where are you going?" Galen raised his brows slightly, suppressed his sadness, and asked.

"I told you."

"I'm going to pay homage to my great-grandfather Foss Ian!"

After Lux hesitated for a while, she raised the golden cane in her hand and looked at Galen, Huo Jixing and others.

"For Demacia!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she rode Starfire, high above the array of demon warriors.

Galen and the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard raised their swords, struck each other's shields, and roared in unison.

"For Demacia!"

"For Demacia!"

Behind the fearless vanguard army.

Huo Jixing sighed softly when he saw Lux's solemn gaze before leaving and the light magic condensed on the top of the golden cane.

Now that he had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he wanted to kill Galen and his fearless Vanguard soldiers.

But he looked at the demon army rushing towards him, and finally stood behind the array.

"We are the Fearless Vanguard!" Galen said in a solemn voice, and the four Fearless Vanguard Legion soldiers behind him assumed a fighting stance.

Valya and Rodion stood on his left side, and Sebato and Diadoru stood on his right side.

"Let courage and sharp eyes guide your swords."

Galen took a step forward and swung his giant sword boldly, slashing at the charging demon warrior as if he was swallowing mountains and rivers with anger.

Clang!

With clumsy skills, the Demacian greatsword accurately sliced ​​open the demon warrior's blade and penetrated into the target's heart.

If it were a normal creature, this sword would have severed the spine.

But the demon warrior's form exploded into black dust, leaving a wail of severe pain.

Immediately afterwards, Galen and the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion used solid shield walls and unsheathed swords to turn into rocks in the waves, firmly resisting the attack of the demon army.

They use their near-perfect coordination and superb skills to bring the most efficient lethality.

With every fatal blow, the charging demon warrior will explode into a ball of ashes.

Huo Jixing also cooperated with them to kill the demon warriors who rushed over.

Originally, he wanted to paddle, but he realized that the data panel was eager for the ashes left after the death of the demon warrior.

Deliberately avoiding the sight of Galen and others, he quickly collected the ashes on the ground and handed them to the data panel.

[Congratulations to the host, you got 5 essence! 】

"Huh? Essence?"

Huo Jixing looked surprised when he heard the cold prompt from the data panel.

He immediately multi-purposed himself, continuing to kill while calling out the panel to see that the number of essences was increasing. "It's incredible. The ashes left behind after the death of these demon warriors can actually replace rune items and be used as essence." Huo Jixing couldn't hide his surprise.

He looked at the demon warriors who were advancing one after another, and a touch of excitement appeared in his eyes.

After lighting up all seven Suzaku stars, he was extremely lacking in essence.

Since he could get the essence by killing the demon warrior, he would never let go of such a rare opportunity.

Huo Jixing glanced at Galen and the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion who were fighting the enemy bravely, and immediately rushed over.

Clang!

The red fire blade fell and chopped open the horned skull of the demon warrior.

Then, the sharp blade passed along the neck, cutting off the head, and a cloud of ashes fell.

Huo Jixing's momentum was violent and he stepped on his feet.

The terrifying force shattered the ground of the square, and the strong wind blew through Galen's array, pulling the ashes under their feet into their arms through spiritual traction, and then using the cover of black mist to collect them into their arms.

Galen, who was fighting, was stunned when he saw Huo Jixing's killing actions at this moment.

Huo Jixing's previous paddling battle still stayed in his mind.

It's completely impossible to tell that he is the same person as he is in the desperate scene now.

Galen had no way of knowing what caused Huo Jixing to change so much.

However, he showed that his master skills were no less than his own, as well as his powerful and terrifying body material, which made Galen and the others face much less pressure.

Clang!

Galen swung his giant sword and sheathed it diagonally to block the attack of another demon warrior.

Then he turned his wrist, leaned his shoulders forward, and collided with the oncoming demon warrior.

boom!

The demon warrior was directly knocked to the ground by Galen.

Galen followed up and stepped on the demon warrior's chest. With a click, the demon warrior let out a miserable howl, and his body was instantly shattered.

The Fearless Vanguard Legion soldiers behind Galen were no less generous.

Sebato decapitated a salivating demon hound, and Diadoru dug his shield into the ground and split a demon python in two.

Valya struck the fangs of a faceless demon with the hilt of her sword, while Rodion plunged the sword into the demon warrior's torso.

Everyone present, no one is weak.

The soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion, with their physical fitness and skill level, are enough to compete with normal extraordinary beings, otherwise they would not become the most elite legion in the Kingdom of Demacia.

The wild killings in the market square were like waves, one wave after another, crushing the incoming demon warriors.

But every time a shadow is destroyed, more shadows always come up.

"call!"

Huo Jixing let out a breath, his strong body turning slightly red during the fight.

With his own skills and physical fitness, it is still too slow to kill these demon warriors.

Although these demon warriors looked extremely weak after the killings by him and Galen, their strength had reached the limit of normal extraordinary beings.

From the corner of Huo Jixing's eyes, he looked at Galen and the soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion, who were like boats in the waves.

I can no longer suppress the killing in my heart.

They are not the same people, so why are they still pretending to be pretentious?

Clang!

The red-gold Nanli fire covers the body.

In the diffuse black mist, Huo Jixing was like a flaming war god descending into the world, bestowing death on the demon warrior with the flaming blade in his hand.

[Suzaku·Crying]!

Huo Jixing turned his wrist, his force originated from the ground, transferred to his waist, and then released.

The red fire blade covering Nanli's fire easily cut through the diffuse black mist under the burst of power.

The next moment!

In the sky above the market square, the red-gold sharp sword light flashed across like meteors dragging their tails, and countless crisp birdsong sounded.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!

Above the dark sky, fireworks bloomed like this.

Half of the demon warriors scattered across the square disappeared out of thin air under the falling meteors.

The ashes left behind after their deaths were also burned by Nanli's fire, turning into a massive amount of essence.

Huo Jixing listened to the system prompts ringing in his ears, grinning with an undisguised smile.

Then he crossed the steps of the square, and rushed towards the demon warriors who were advancing one after another like a tiger among sheep, killing them wildly and harvesting the essence crazily.

The movement caused by Nanli's fire instantly attracted the attention of Galen and others.

"Devil-stained one!"

Galen, who was fighting the demon warriors, looked at the blazing flames in front of him, his eyes solemn, and his inner premonition seemed to come true.

Lux is involved with the Evil One.

The soldiers of the Fearless Vanguard Legion beside them also noticed the changes on the battlefield and the scorching waves of air blowing from them.

They saw that in the diffuse black mist, a god like a god from myths and legends was raining down flames, killing and burning the demons that were raging in the world.

"It's him, the Demonic One!"

Diadoru swung his sword to split open the demon warrior in front of him, looking at Huo Jixing with his sharp eyes.

Saibato on the side stepped forward and killed the demon warrior in front of him cleanly.

"Arrest him."

After Galen dealt with the demon warriors in front of him, he decisively issued the order.

The steel wave surged, and the blue cloak, like a shining beacon, cut through the black mist.

Huo Jixing, who was killing the demon warriors, seemed to be aware of it, turned sideways, and swung his knife.

Clang!

The silver sword blade and the red fire blade clashed, brilliant sparks splashed out, burning the mist.

Galen looked at Huo Jixing in front of him, his sea-blue eyes full of anger.

"Evil and scourge!"

Huo Jixing's pupils tightened when he heard this. What a familiar line.

Unfortunately, they are not from the same group.

"Don't get in my way!"

Red-gold fireworks rose in Huo Jixing's eyes, and he picked up the blade in his hand and slashed towards Galen's shoulder.

Seeing this, Galen advanced instead of retreating. He waved the giant sword in his hand like a steel storm, bringing Huo Jixing into his attack range.

clang!clang!clang!clang!

The blade collided with the sword body, making bursts of harsh metal friction sounds.

The forces of Huo Jixing and Galen collided with each other, creating strong shock waves. The surrounding air shattered like glass, and fine cracks appeared.

With the arrival of the steel storm, the raging black mist stagnated for a moment.

The dark atmosphere in the market square disappeared at the moment of the sword clash, as if it was cut by a sharp blade, and the demon warriors were turned into ashes.

Da da!Da da!

Galen and Huo Jixing stepped back respectively, their heavy steps leaving deep footprints on the ground.

The two of them locked eyes and prepared to continue fighting.

Outside the city wall of Forsbarrow Town, a bright white light broke through the black mist, shining like a tower to the sky.

"Lux!" Huo Jixing's heart moved.

He thought of Lux's solemn look before leaving, and his eyes fell on the few remaining demon warriors.

With Galen's hindrance, he may not be able to fully harvest the remaining essence.

On the contrary, Lux may have something new to gain.

Seeing Galen coming forward, Huo Jixing immediately said: "Think about how to wake up these small town residents!"

Immediately afterwards, he unfolded his wings in the sky, fanned by blazing flames, and rushed into the sky in an instant, leaving the town.

Galen was about to chase after them on horseback, but when he saw the town residents lying in the market square in front of him, he had to stop and guard them instead.

"Lux!"

Galen gripped the giant sword tightly and killed the demon warriors rushing in front of him, looking towards the north outside the town.

In the dark forest, the bright power of light is gradually disappearing.
