The Glory of Noxus.

Chapter 342: Changes in the capital and an unexpected visit
Outside the Noxian capital.

There are many fortresses and towns scattered across the vast plains. They look like soldiers standing tall and guarding the central capital.

In the fortress near the capital.

A huge and towering building stands at the core, which is particularly eye-catching.

The exterior wall of this building is carved with complex patterns, and on the dark gray walls on both sides, there are red imperial flags flying high.

Buzz!Buzz!
There was a trembling sound in the air.

The surging magical energy was injected into the center of the vortex of the dark gray building.

Then the vortex began to spin, and mottled magic light lit up.

Gradually, ripples appeared in the center of the vortex, as if the water was being blown by a breeze.

【Noxtra】!
This portal of the Noxus Empire is being activated, connecting to another [Noxtra].

Although the streets are still narrow, many shops have been opened, and many children can be seen chasing and playing.

When a transport team from as far away as Rocklund set foot in this fortress, the smell of colored glaze filled the air.

It was this choice that allowed him to see the changes in the Noxus Empire during this period.

They are full of hope for a better life tomorrow.

The scene before us was completely different from the gloomy and dilapidated state during the reign of Brown Darkwill.

After entering the capital.

The policies promulgated by Swain and the Trefari Council brought the out-of-control empire back on track and began to gradually regain its former glory.

After Huo Jixing left the fortress, he walked along the flat and wide road to the capital of Noxus.

Today's civilian areas have become bustling and noisy, full of vitality and vitality.

These people wore unique clothing with bright colors, and their faces were a bit special. They were obviously not native to Noxus.

Brown Darkwill's dark reign has been swept into the dustbin.

Huo Jixing followed the team and slowly entered the fortress.

Wait until the magical energy subsides.

Judging from their language, they should be from vassal forces of the Noxus Empire.

There are many figures nearby wearing strong armor and holding sharp weapons, escorting the minerals.

Huo Jixing looked around casually and noticed that people's faces were filled with smiles, no longer full of worries and fears like in the past.

Noxus capital city, civilian area.
Huo Jixing did not use the power of the star spirit to rush forward, but chose to move forward slowly.

His own token was lost during the Stillwater Prison Incident.

When registering, he took out the Reese Guard Corps token given by Yousil and showed it to the guard soldiers.

In the energy ripples, a hazy image became clearer and clearer. It was a heavily guarded barrier.

In addition, Huo Jixing also saw many people in strange clothes.

Huo Jixing saw many new buildings rising from the ground and towering into the clouds.

The once narrow streets have been widened a lot, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians coming in an endless stream, and laughter coming and going.

Huo Jixing was deeply gratified by these scenes that were unfolding.

Because this means that the empire is heading towards prosperity and prosperity.

As night falls.

Huo Jixing returned to his residence in the capital.

He looked up at the three-story building in front of him, and the memories buried in his mind emerged.

Squeak!

Open the door.

Huo Jixing strolled in and met the sword boy Heini whose expression changed.

I haven’t seen him for half a year. This little guy has grown a lot. His eyes are bright and his body is strong.

"Lord Huo Jixing!"

Heini heard the door open and hurried over, thinking that someone had broken in by mistake, but after seeing Huo Jixing, his face was filled with joy.

"When did you come back?"

Huo Jixing stepped forward and rubbed Heini's head. "When else, I must have just come back."

Compared to before, this little guy is taller than his shoulders, and will be as tall as him in a while.

Heini touched his nose and looked embarrassed: "You haven't eaten yet, I'll get some food and water."

"Let's get some strong drinks, and prepare some for this little guy too."

Huo Jixing took out the snoozing snow-white Poro from his arms and threw it on his shoulder.

"Okay." Henie agreed.

The long dining table was filled with a dazzling array of food, and there were a few empty wine bottles in the corner.

The snow-white Poro was holding a piece of bacon and munching on it. His satisfied expression seemed to tell people that food is the best thing in the world.

"Tell me, what happened after Soul-Eating Night came to Bilgewater?"

Heini sat next to Huo Ji, his eyes flashing with anticipation, and he couldn't wait to know the next story.

Huo Jixing smiled slightly, picked up a flask filled with spirits, took a sip, and then picked up a few delicious pieces of meat and put them into his mouth.

After chewing carefully, he slowly opened his mouth and continued to tell his experience.

"When the Soul-Eating Night falls and the black fog sweeps across Bilgewater, the entire port city is in danger."

"The undead and ghosts appear in the darkness one after another. They wander in the streets and alleys, plundering the lives of living people."

Hojistar described the Soul Haunting incident in Bilgewater, occasionally mentioning Thresh and Hecarim.

"In the end, we successfully fought off those undead creatures."

Every time Heini came back from Huojixing, he would ask him about his mission experience.

In order to satisfy Heini's curiosity, he would select some and tell them.

As for dangerous fights, he would simply skip them.

Heini listened with rapt attention. As a sword boy, he understood the grandeur and beauty of Valoran and the wonders of the outside world.

He didn't come back to his senses until Huo Jixing stopped talking.

"What about Gangplank? Did he die in Soul-Eating Night?"

Hainie seemed to have thought of something and asked with his eyes widened.

"This guy once plundered the empire's ships in the Sea of ​​Watchers, and it is said that he stole Lord Swain's Leviathan."

"Forehead"

Huo Jixing looked helpless, lowering his eyes and looking at Heini with a vicious expression.

This is the inevitable retribution engraved in the bones of Noxians.

"Okay, I'm done. It's time for you to clear the table." Huo Jixing pointed to the messy dining table.

This is their division of labor, Huo Jixing is responsible for telling stories, and Heini is responsible for clearing the table.

"Oh well."

Haynie stood up and gathered his hands and feet briskly.

"If the Empire launches a war against Bilgewater in the future, I will be the first to rush over and take off Gangplank's head."

He seemed to be still immersed in the topic just now, and said ambitiously while picking up the dinner plate.

He didn't care about the strength gap between himself and Gangplank.

Upon hearing this, Huo Jixing shook his head slightly, reached out to grab the snow-white poro holding the piece of meat, ignored its protests, and rubbed its plush body.

Warm bedroom.

The fireplace was filled with wood and the fire was roaring.

After Huo Jixing finished washing, he came to the bedside with the snow-white Poro in his arms.

Then he looked out the window at the hazy night, and instead of practicing, he completely relaxed and fell asleep.

Early next morning.

The autumn wind is getting colder and winter is coming.

Huo Jixing woke up on time. As soon as he got out of bed, he noticed a familiar smell in the small building.
