What’s more important is that the other party never showed up.

A person whose identity is unknown may be able to give you correct information.

But what about next time?

He does need to show kindness to those who give him information.

But when it comes to war... any mistake can lead to countless deaths.

Ryan has to be careful in this regard.

"Because she has a hidden secret..." The Noxian officer tried to correct himself. "Having me come to you is a last resort, a gesture of goodwill."

He took out a medal, the style of which looked familiar to Ryan. "It can prove my identity. Currently, there are no more than five Noxian officers stationed near Ionia who possess this medal."

After saying this, the Noxian officer looked at Ryan.

He wanted to see surprise and astonishment on the young man's face.

But to his surprise, the other party still behaved calmly.

It seems that I have seen a similar story about a Noxian officer betraying the empire and wanting to defect to Ionia a long time ago.

"Does that include the one from last night?"

"Although..." The Noxian officer revealed a perfectly appropriate sadness. "I tried to persuade him to join the gang, but he wanted to find someone to report me. For the benefit of more people, I had no choice but to let him go to peace first."

"So you came to me today simply to gain my trust?"

“That’s the main purpose, but I want to do more…”

The Noxian officer's eyes flickered.

He thought about directly deceiving Ms. Red Rose and telling her that the young man in front of her wanted him to return to the military.

But he was afraid that this lie would be exposed in the future.

Given the mental state displayed by Ms. Red Rose, the officer didn't dare to gamble at all.

"...I can be your spy in the Noxian military." He expressed his selfish motives.

Ryan keenly noticed the change in the officer's expression, "There seems to be a gap between you and your partner."

"We're generally moving in the same direction, but we do disagree on some issues," the officer admitted frankly. "But that's no reason for us to abandon justice, right?"

Having said that, he turned sideways and looked around.

After confirming that no one was around, he whispered, "Actually, while the previous information was correct, it wasn't complete... Noxus will indeed invade in nine days, but it's a feint."

"What's the real purpose?"

"I don't know." The officer shook his head. "Only one person knows the real purpose, but this doesn't affect our cooperation. Even if it's a feint, to ensure it looks real, the people Noxus sent are regular troops.

"If we do it right, we can swallow them all!"

Chapter 207 Noxian Traitor

The Noxian officer is not an honest man.

In other words, an honest man cannot be an officer of Noxus.

From the moment he was first caught by Ms. Red Rose, he displayed many of his characteristics.

Including but not limited to: fickle temperament, cunning heart, spineless...

After a brief moment of weighing the pros and cons, he did decide to completely side with the Black Rose and become a spy wandering between the Empire and the Shadow.

But he still habitually holds back...

Even when he could be killed by the weird Lady Red Rose at any time, he still hid a secret.

He didn't want to tell this secret.

There is always a kind of lucky mentality in his heart, that is, not betraying absolutely means not betraying absolutely!

But when the direction of the conversation suddenly deviated from his expected direction and there was no way to pull it back, he had no choice but to take out his best guess.

This time, the Noxian officer finally saw the expression he wanted on Ryan's face.

The development of the matter was beyond my expectation and I was surprised and stunned.

This news was indeed beyond Ryan's expectations.

But after knowing this news, the whole incident became more reasonable.

After all, even Sett could hear the news.

Of course, this can be explained by the fact that the Noxian officers did not regard him as a human being, but it still seems a bit far-fetched... If the Noxians really made such a mistake out of arrogance, they would not be able to fight on several fronts at the same time.

Thinking of this, Ryan suddenly looked at the man in front of him.

Is there a possibility that...

"Do you know the boxing ring in Barue?"

The Noxian officer was stunned for a moment, "I know, but..."

"Then do you know Seti?"

"Yes, a mixed... no, a half-vastaya."

"It seems we are acquaintances." Ryan smiled.

The fact that the officer knew about Seti's identity was far more evident than the medal he took out, which he didn't know what it was.

Moreover, it seemed that the other party really had no secrets to dig out. Ryan could see his inner uneasiness from his micro-expressions.

Today is undoubtedly another day of harvest. With the mentality of giving it a try, I actually found a traitor.

Although the traitor himself is not entirely credible...

But in what world can there be a completely trustworthy traitor? Even if you are considered a traitor, who doesn't have the basic qualities of turning their backs on others?

If you want to make them behave, you can only use the most primitive way of intimidation.

Ryan looked into the eyes of the Noxian officer.

At the moment when the other person wants to say something.

The power of darkness was projected in his eyes.

'Weng'

The Noxian officer felt the world suddenly dim.

The thick darkness seemed to swallow up the world.

The gloomy atmosphere made his soul tremble.

A certain terrifying will instantly broke down all his inner defenses.

Countless voices overlapped and resonated in the empty darkness, emitting echoes that brought his soul to the brink of collapse.

Time seemed to pass in a flash, but it also seemed like an eternity.

When the Noxian officer regained consciousness, he found himself sitting on the ground.

And right in front of him, the culprit was staring at him.

There seemed to be some kind of terrifying power hidden in the black eyes.

That familiar terrifying power finally made him understand why his plan had 'failed'.

Because I underestimated the other person's ability.

What he was facing was not a witch's mistress.

But a...

The Noxian officer didn't know how to describe it.

But he knew he needed to get his attitude right.

"Please...please forgive my previous attitude..."

The Noxian officer found himself stuttering.

"You have a good attitude." Ryan looked at the Noxian officer with a smile, "Let me ask you one last question."

"Please ask!"

"Who exactly is your 'partner'?" Ryan didn't think the two were really partners.

This can be seen from the Noxian officer's previous words and the secrets he himself has hidden.

Since they are not partners, I can just ask directly.

"...Don't worry, no one will know about this conversation."

There were star-like lights flickering in Ryan's eyes.

Dark magic is not good at detection, but it is good at destruction.

The gloomy atmosphere can render any detection magic ineffective.

If Ryan wanted to, he could even distort other people's perceptions.

For example, at this moment, in a place where the Noxian officers were unaware.

A faint dark purple light has enveloped the surrounding space.

To outsiders, it looked like he was standing and talking in low voices with a Noxian officer.

Achieving this effect is not difficult; it's simply a matter of fooling around with light and shadow.

When my power of thought is combined with dark magic, these little tricks only require a thought.

The Noxian officer fell into a brief silence.

He wasn't questioning Ryan's words.

He just needs time to sort out the pros and cons.

And it’s not a difficult decision.

If you are already on two boats and there is a boat that looks more luxurious in front of you, why not get on it?

After about ten seconds, he looked up at Ryan and said, "I don't know if you have ever been to Noxus."

"No."

"...So, do you know Noxus?"

"What does this have to do with the question I asked you?" Ryan asked back.

"Yes, because that person is from a mysterious Noxian organization... I don't know if you have heard of the Black Rose."

The Noxian officer expertly betrayed his 'new teammate'.

This is how many things are, the first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar.

Without waiting for Ryan's answer, he began to pour out the information he knew.

"They are a mysterious organization with a long history... said to be older than the Noxian Empire.

"Their internal members are almost all women, possessing mysterious magical powers and mastering many ancient witchcrafts. External members are mostly people who work for them, and their composition is very complex.

"I don't know exactly what their relationship is to the Noxian Empire, but it seems very close to me.

"As for the woman who delivered the message to you, she calls herself Lady Red Rose, and their goal is to win you over."

Ryan looked at the Noxian officer who was talking eloquently, his face didn't change, but he was surprised by the early appearance of Black Rose.

So that Noxian idea king finally couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to meet his Ionian idea king!?

As for winning myself over, that's not surprising.

According to the background story, the reason why the idea king is everywhere.

It is to make up for the shadow of "childhood".

Although the deceased tyrant is no longer in this world, he is always spurring her on.

Let her use her limited brain cells to search for ways to fight against the tyrant.

And what she has done and the potential she has shown can definitely become one of her choices.

But...she actually wanted to win me over by selling out Noxus's interests!?
