Chapter 229 The decisive battle against Noxus! (10,000 words)
"Won!!"
"We won!!"
The moment the demon dragon fell and made no more noise, the whole audience burst into cheers.
Looking at the huge dragon corpse, no one thought that one day they could become a member of the dragon slaying team.
Shyvana gradually returned to her human form, and people discovered that she looked different from normal.
For example, she now has a pair of red and blood-red armor on her body, just like her outer shell after transforming into a dragon.
With the addition of this armor and the blood-stained aura, she looked a bit more domineering overall.
People couldn't help but think of her appearance just now, and once again realized the fact that the woman in front of them was actually a giant dragon.
Shyvana's body was still bleeding out, and she looked around as if she was mentally prepared.
She wasn't sure if people would still be willing to accept her when they saw her true appearance.
However, the next moment, the scene erupted into even stronger cheers.
"Well done Shyvana!"
"You were so handsome just now!"
"Dragon, my friend is a dragon!"
"I can blow it for a year!"
The soldiers rushed towards Shyvana enthusiastically, and the sincere expressions on their faces were like a gust of warm wind, blowing away the coldness around Shyvana.
At this moment, her hanging heart was completely relieved.
She knew she had a destination.
"If you want to cheer, please save it for later. If you are injured and still have strength, please treat your wounds quickly."
Lu Qi looked at the pleasant atmosphere at the scene and finally interrupted.
After the words fell, the soldiers put away their joyful mood, treated the injured ones' wounds, and cleaned the scene for the uninjured ones.
Lu Qi took advantage of this time and walked to the body of the demon dragon.
Looking at the demon dragon from a close distance, even though she had lost her voice at this moment, the majesty of a strong person was still there, and the blood gushing out of her body was still hot.
This giant dragon was so big that Lu Qi stood in front of her and was not even taller than her head.
The dragon's eyes were dimmed, but in the open mouth, the sharp dragon's teeth still shone coldly.
Shyvana was on the side, accepting the healer's treatment of the wound, while also looking at the demon dragon's corpse with complicated eyes.
On this day, she killed her biological mother with her own hands.
Even though she knew that the two sides were on different sides, the moment Iva lost his breath, she could not help but feel a little more sad.
It's more like an instinctive feeling from biology.
Of course, she had no more memories of Iva, and the few things she knew about him were all from her father's mouth.
There is no doubt that her human adoptive father is a more important person than Iva.
But he died in Iva's dragon breath, and then she was hunted endlessly.
Today, here, the grudges were completely ended, and she should be happy.
Lu Qi glanced at Shyvana next to him: "What are you thinking about?"
Hearing this, Sivana said softly: "I was thinking that I finally avenged my father. But, I am not happy at all."
After all, even if a great revenge is avenged, people cannot come back from the dead.
In the end, I was left alone.
Fortunately, she found a new home with many friends who were willing to accept her.
Before Lu Qi could speak, she continued: "No matter what, I want to thank Your Highness. If it weren't for Your Highness, I would still be wandering now."
If Lu Qi hadn't taken action in the first place, she might still be in panic day after day, avoiding Iva's pursuit.
"No need to thank me." Lu Qi shook his head and smiled slowly: "The one who has really reached this point is you. If it were you, even without me, sooner or later you would meet a group of partners who fight side by side."
Shyvana also smiled, and then said no more words.
At this time, two girls, Lux and Kasina, also came closer and looked at the body of the demon dragon curiously, while still exclaiming.
"so big!"
"One of her dragon scales is almost bigger than my hand!"
In fact, most people are like them. After all, this is the first time for everyone to see a giant dragon in their lives, let alone being able to touch it at such a close distance.
Even Catalina couldn't help but come closer at this moment, also looked at the dragon's body, and then stretched out her hand to touch the dragon's scales.
The texture of dragon scales is hard, but the appearance is very smooth, the temperature is slightly hot, and it feels good to the touch.
Dragon scales can be used as materials to make armor. Armor made of dragon scales has magic resistance and powerful defense.
Dragon scale armor is now very rare in Runeterra.
Dragon teeth can be made into weapons, which contain many magical elements of the dragon and are also very precious materials.
All in all, the demon dragon in front of you is a huge treasure house, and there are treasures everywhere on its body.
She didn't expect that the dragon could be killed so easily, without even losing a single person.
From its appearance to its death, the dragon was led along throughout the whole process.
Every step was planned and thought of by the guy next to me.
She couldn't help but glance sideways at Lu Qi's profile, and suddenly found that this face, which often had a lazy expression, was a bit unfamiliar.
She glanced at Shyvana over there again, feeling a little more stressed.
Shyvana took important credit for this dragon slaying, and after that, she will definitely become a big help to Demacia.
A giant dragon.
A bloodthirsty, rising dragon.
Such a being would be the enemy of Noxus.
From the standpoint of Noxus, even if Patria is against the family. Katarina still couldn't help but feel worried about the Noxian soldiers at the Gate of Sorrow.
By the way, the Gate of Sorrow.
Catalina suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Qi.
At this time, Lu Qi also looked away from the dragon and looked at Shyvana who had finished treating the wound: "Can you still fight?"
Shyvana nodded without hesitation: "Of course."
"Then take a rest and prepare to continue fighting."
After Lu Qi finished speaking, he turned around and ordered loudly: "The entire army will rest and assemble in ten minutes!"
The night was not yet over, and although the dragon was defeated, the real battle had just begun.
Ten minutes later, Lu Qi led a total of 20,000 soldiers in the city to gather at the gate of the hill city.
Twenty thousand soldiers followed Lu Qi in neat formation, and the team was very large.
Twenty thousand people are already a lot of troops in Demacia.
The number of soldiers in Demacia's army has always been small.
Because the screening for joining the army is very strict, even if it is an ordinary army, it is not possible to join just because you want to.
And this is where Demacia's military remains strong.
Said it before.
Because of different philosophies, there is a gap in the way soldiers are trained between Demacia and Noxus.
Noxus fights all year round, and its main focus is to support war with war, and to strengthen itself by plundering resources and manpower from various places.
His absorbing power is so strong that anyone can quickly integrate into the Noxian army and become one of them.
This also resulted in the uneven quality of soldiers in the Noxian army, ranging from high to low.
After all, for many people, joining the military is always the fastest way to prosperity, no matter what the circumstances.
But because of this, in many wars, Noxus usually relied on its numerical advantage to directly defeat them.
Just like this time, Noxus dispatched at least six figures of soldiers to build a Gate of Sorrow on the border.
In contrast, Demacia uses careful training. Most of the soldiers have been cultivated by Demacia's resources very early. Targeted training has created the high discipline and unity of the Demacia army today. , strong coordination and generally high quality of soldiers.
Although the number of soldiers in the army does not seem to be very large in this way, in fact every soldier is an elite (recorded in the background).
Coupled with excellent equipment, Demacia has always remained strong in terms of military strength.
At this time, on top of the city wall, Lu Qi was quietly looking into the distance, and a dragon bird knight quickly flew back from high in the sky.
"Your Highness, the enemy is expected to arrive in half an hour."
"Okay, notify everyone and enter a state of war preparation."
Hearing this, Lu Qi nodded and passed on the order.
The other side.
As the army was marching at full speed, Patria also had a soldier riding on horseback to report.
"General, we expect to arrive at the hill city in half an hour."
"good!"
Patria heard this and stared straight ahead.
As the journey continued to approach, his mood became more and more excited.
Tonight, he will attack the hill city!
More than an hour has passed, and the battle between Demacia and the dragon should be coming to an end.
Having personally seen the fighting power of that dragon, Patria was sure that it would not be easy for Demacia to deal with her.
Take advantage of them before they can slow down and take them down in one go!
Capturing the hill city also means that he will gain a lot of achievements, enough for him to upgrade two levels in a row after returning to the capital.
Thinking of this, Patria tightened his grip on the reins and increased his speed again.
About half an hour later.
Patria led the army and gradually appeared in the sight of the hill city.
Lu Qi stood on the city wall, and in his field of vision, a swarm of black-armored soldiers came in neat steps, like dark clouds pressing down on the country, which looked even more terrifying in the night.
There were quite a lot of people, and countless weapons could be seen, shining coldly in the night.
As they took steps, even the ground shook slightly, as if they were trembling for the appearance of this large army.
The leader, Patria, wore a thick black armor that covered him tightly. He held a battle ax and rode on his mount, looking majestic.
The army held high the black Noxian flag, followed by various powerful monsters and huge chariots.
Such a huge team can bring a full sense of oppression just by looking at it.
Lu Qi's expression remained unchanged and he stood calmly on the city wall.
In the distance, Patria also caught sight of Lucci on the city wall. This Demacian was very eye-catching just standing there.
Inexplicably, Patria was very convinced.
This guy is the second prince of Demacia!
Suddenly, he saw Lu Qi on the city wall making some movement.
As if aware of his gaze, Lu Qi faintly stretched out his right hand and raised his middle finger.
Patria's mouth twitched.
The silence speaks.
Such a gesture that was not very harmful, but extremely insulting, instantly made all the humiliation caused by this guy flood into my heart.
Patria could not wait to give the order on the spot and launch a charge.
But don't worry, soon he will stand in that position and crush this guy's head under his feet!
Gritting his teeth, Patria withdrew his sinister gaze and ordered in a cold voice: "Tonight, we will definitely attack the hill city! Whoever can be the first to capture the second prince alive will receive a reward of 5,000 yuan and a promotion to the next level!"
A bounty no less than that of a giant dragon had been placed on his head. As word spread, the momentum of the entire army instantly became excited.
Now they also know that this flying strategy was thought up by the stupid second prince of Demacia.
Now not only can they beat him, but they can also get money after beating him. Just thinking about it makes their blood boil.
"Conquer the hill city!"
"For Noxus!"
Suddenly, shouts echoed through the clouds in the night. The shouts of tens of thousands of people were almost deafening, and the momentum was very exciting.
Screaming can not only encourage people, but also directly and effectively deter enemies.
However, Demacians do not accept this trick.
Lu Qi raised his hand, and a large number of white-armored soldiers suddenly appeared on the city wall, holding bows and arrows, ready to attack.
Patria squinted his eyes and found that there were quite a few defenders on the city wall, as if they had been waiting here for a long time.
Speaking of which, the magic dragon has disappeared.
Then, he glanced at the city wall and found many signs of damage on it, and suddenly sneered in his heart.
"It's just a bluff."
Seeing this, Patria no longer hesitated and ordered loudly: "All troops, charge! Attack the hill city!"
"kill!!!"
Amidst the shouts, the army behind them suddenly accelerated their speed. Everyone charged towards the hill city, and the huge siege vehicles rolled forward.
The huge dragon lizard carried the siegemen and jumped forward quickly.
There are also terrifying Yalong dogs that shuttle flexibly among the team.
The similar scene in front of him reminded Lu Qi of the beast tide he had encountered. In front of this huge army, the beast tide seemed too small.
However, this time, the preparations he could make were different from the original beast tide.
Seeing the army approaching, when he entered the shooting range, he immediately ordered loudly: "Shoot!"
“Swish, swish, swish!!”
Suddenly, a hail of arrows shot out from the city wall and fell like heavy rain, making a sharp sound, but they were all blocked by the enemy.
Noxus has always been strong in sieges. Just looking at how many siege methods their team has equipped, you can see that they are well prepared.
Naturally, the rain of arrows can only serve as a deterrent.
It did not stop any soldier's charge.
A sneer appeared on Patria's lips. He had attacked countless cities, and this attack was inevitable.
The second prince had just taken charge of the army, so how could he be his opponent?
However, the next second, his expression suddenly changed.
"Cum again!"
Lu Qi gave another order.
In the eyes of all Noxian soldiers, cylindrical retro artillery pieces were placed on top of the city gate.
Then, the dark, round cannonball is loaded, the fuse is ignited, and a series of actions are completed in one go.
I could only hear the next second, "Boom, boom, boom!"
After another round of volleys, Patria's eyes widened, looking at the dark cannonballs in the sky, and wanted to say, this girl is not a rain of arrows.
The soldiers holding up their shields were also dumbfounded, watching helplessly as the shells fell.
"Boom boom boom boom!!"
The next second, a stronger explosion sounded, and the bursting fire swallowed up soldiers one after another.
Just from this first salvo, the vanguard at the front was already knocked upside down by the explosion.
"Black powder?"
Patria's eyes flashed with disbelief. There was no doubt that this was very similar to the black powder he had learned about.
Noxus has also begun research on black powder in recent years, but the results are not very satisfactory.
These dangerous explosives will explode if you are not careful, usually causing damage to yourself as much as you kill the enemy.
Even many war masons who developed black powder died from this stuff.
Demacia has actually developed black powder to this extent?
When did this happen?
Why had he never heard of it?
"Cum again!"
"Boom boom boom!"
The sound of another volley of artillery shells made Patria come back from the shock. He watched another group of soldiers die under the shells, and finally realized that the situation seemed not as simple as he thought.
"General, the enemy's firepower is too strong!"
An adjutant rode up.
There were at least a hundred artillery mounted on the city wall. With so many artillery shells fired, the stormtroopers could not move forward at all.
"The vanguard withdraws and the siege engines advance!"
Patria immediately ordered and launched countermeasures.
Immediately, the charging soldiers withdrew, and huge siege vehicles headed forward.
These siege vehicles are made very hard, and the team is also equipped with mages. The purpose is to strengthen the defense of the siege vehicles.
Sure enough, with the blessing of magical power, the siege vehicle withstood the pressure of the shells and continued to press forward.
Seeing this, Patria ordered again: "Sacrifice flag, take this opportunity to follow us!"
Immediately, several more mages poured magical energy into the Noxian flag.
The flag, which was made of special materials and imprinted with powerful magic, was immediately activated and sent out a ripple around it.
Everyone who is illuminated by the ripples feels strengthened and becomes even more brave and fearless.
The siege vehicles and troops continued to approach the foot of the city wall. Lu Qi continued to order shooting in an orderly manner without any panic.
When he saw the Noxian flag being raised high and the magical energy dissipating in all directions, Lucci ordered: "Hislia, go bomb that flag for me."
"yes!"
After falling down, Xisilia directly took advantage of the wind. The dragon bird spread its wings and flew high into the sky.
Immediately, the dragon and bird knights dispatched en masse.
Looking at the dragon bird knight flying high in the sky, Patria frowned, with a bad feeling.
The next second, black gunpowder was seen falling from the sky as those dragon and bird knights flew.
Some were thrown at the mages, some at the flag.
The gunpowder fell and exploded. The strong fire engulfed the surrounding area. The residual heat of the explosion hit the face. The ground shook and screams were heard.
"Prioritize protecting the flag and protecting the mage!"
Patria loudly ordered: "Shoot those dragon and bird knights!"
Countless sharp arrows were shot at the dragon and bird knights high in the sky, but they were all dodged nimbly.
At this time, bad things happened one after another.
The siege vehicle rushing at the front was less than three hundred meters away from the city gate. As long as it could successfully reach the foot of the city gate, it would be equivalent to a breakthrough.
However, when a siege vehicle was moving forward with concentration, it completely failed to notice that something was being pressed beneath it.
The next second, "Boom!!!"
The sound of explosions came from below the siege vehicle, and bright firelight spurted out. Amidst the deafening sound of the explosion, the siege vehicle was overturned and completely destroyed from the bottom.
This scene caused Patria to fall into a brief daze.
Just before he realized what happened.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Violent explosions were heard, and each explosion represented the destruction of a siege vehicle. In just a moment, all the siege vehicles rushing in front were scrapped.
Seeing that the 'anti-siege vehicle mine' was effective, Lu Qi showed a satisfied smile on his face and still kept calm as he ordered: "Keep shooting!"
All the gunpowder supplies he brought this time were used in this battle.
Patria was already a little stunned by the explosion. There was the sound of gunpowder explosions everywhere. Every time another explosion lit up in his eyes, it meant that he had lost another group of men.
The artillery on the city wall, the bombardment of the Dragon Bird Knights in the sky, and the mines on the ground to counterattack the city vehicles.
The three formed a tight line of defense, blocking the advance of the Noxian army.
Seeing such a scene, even the soldiers on the city wall were stunned.
This was a situation they had never expected.
Patria had never fought such a difficult siege. His troops had already suffered batch after batch of losses before they even touched the enemy's walls.
But looking at the city wall so close, he was unwilling to give up just like that.
He believed that as long as he broke through the enemy's firepower, his army could easily defeat the soldiers defending the city.
What's more, coming here just to lose so many warriors is not the Noxian style!
Thinking of this, Patria shouted and ordered: "The city gate is approaching, rush for me! Use the blood of the enemy to sacrifice our fallen compatriots!"
"rush!!"
"Kill!"
Some soldiers had completely lost their fighting spirit during the bombing, but in Noxus, being a deserter was a capital crime, and could even lead to an extremely painful death.
At this moment, all I can do is shout for support and rush forward desperately.
As long as they break through the city, their chance will come!
Hundreds of cannonballs still failed to stop the Noxian army from charging. They were getting closer and closer to the city gate, three hundred meters, two hundred meters away.
Someone next to Lu Qi said: "Your Highness, the gunpowder is almost used up."
Hearing this, Lu Qi ordered: "It's almost time, launch the signal flare."
"yes!"
came the response.
Soon, with a "whoosh" sound, a signal flare was shot directly into the sky, blooming like fireworks.
When Patria saw this signal flare, he instinctively sensed something was wrong, and a sense of crisis emerged!
"kill!!"
Then, he heard shouts of death coming from both wings.
The Demacia army, which had been ambushing here for a long time, launched a charge towards the Noxian army in the center from the left and right sides.
The leader is none other than the leader of the Fearless Vanguard Corps, Lev.
He took the lead and rushed into the Noxian ranks at great speed, showing great combat prowess and slashing on his horse.
The total number of soldiers on both sides was at least ten thousand.
On the city wall, Lu Qi also loudly ordered: "Open the door! Get out of the city and kill the enemy!"
As soon as the words fell, the gate of Hill City was opened proactively before Noxus could attack.
This should have been a great opportunity for Noxus, but none of the Noxian soldiers who were about to arrive at the city gate dared to take a step forward.
"kill!!!"
I saw a large number of white-armored soldiers rushing out from the city gate and killing Noxus from the front.
How could this be?
Patria was surprised. Could it be that the dragon had no impact on Demacia?
Why are they so well prepared?
Seeing that there were so many troops in the city, Patria had no time to think too much and raised his weapon: "For Noxus! Kill!"
He still has many subordinates who should be able to fight against these enemies!
However, he soon realized that the situation was not what he thought.
The soldiers in white armor rushed into the Noxian position, and the black and white colors suddenly blended together, like Go on a chessboard.
However, it was Heizi who was surrounded.
Sona sat on the city wall and played an exciting song. The sound of the playing blessed each warrior, giving them more fighting spirit and strength.
In contrast, the Noxian army, which had already been shattered by a gunpowder bombardment, clearly began to decline in fighting spirit.
The two armies fought, and in a short period of time, countless enemy troops were killed.
Lu Qi jumped down from the city wall and joined the battle. He was surrounded by the wind. Xuejian slashed out, and a huge tornado suddenly blew away towards the enemies in front of him.
A strong wind swept over a group of enemy troops.
Lu Qi did not stop, and continued to accumulate wind energy with his forward slash. After waiting for the moment, he slashed out with another huge tornado.
This move is simply a magical skill for clearing troops.
With a crossbow in hand and cold eyes, Vayne flexibly shuttled among the enemy troops, hunting mercilessly.
Poppy swung the Holy Hammer vigorously, and the Holy Hammer exerted great power under the use of her small body.
When she swung the hammer with all her strength and struck it down, the ground immediately cracked, sending the enemy flying far away.
Urna held the black short blade and quietly killed people.
Lux and Kashina, as healers, followed the team and treated the wounds of the replaced wounded immediately.
Lux was secretly using magic throughout the whole process, shielding all the warriors she could notice.
She wanted to use the power of magic in this battle, but Lucci said there was no need to do so.
At this point, Lux chose to listen to him.
However, she couldn't help but use it secretly. So far, no one had discovered it. She believed that as long as she hid it well, she would definitely not be discovered.
It was the first time for both girls to experience such a war. It was probably the first time for them to see so many people die in front of them.
None of them were afraid when they saw the bloody battlefield.
Instead, he is more determined to carry out his mission.
After Demacia's first charge, the Noxian army already felt invincible, and its momentum dropped again and again.
Obviously there are still more people than Demacia, but they are already suppressed.
Patria quickly noticed Lucci joining the fight.
The moment he saw him, a mixture of anger, hatred, and shame made him pick up the battle ax in his hand and rush toward him.
Seeing that the current situation was becoming more and more favorable to him, he had only one thought in his mind.
Kill him and capture this prince alive!
This prince is his best way to change the situation of the war now!
This idea emerged, and Patria already wanted to rush towards it.
However, a group of flames lit up in the sky, prompting him to look over. A roar came from the flames, causing him and more Noxian soldiers to freeze on the spot.
"Roar!!!"
A shocking roar came from behind Demacia's army, and a shadow approached from high in the sky.
What appeared in the eyes of the Noxian army was a giant flame dragon!
The dragon roared loudly at the enemy, and with a breath of dragon breath, it exploded around several Noxian soldiers.
Immediately afterwards, there was a second breath of dragon's breath, the flames burned fiercely, and the soldiers screamed and wailed in the fire.
Such a scene makes more and more people feel frightened.
This giant dragon is obviously on the side of Demacia!
"Why is there another one?!"
Patria's eyes widened in disbelief. The sight of the giant flame dragon in his eyes made him feel an uncontrollable chill all over his body, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Demacia actually has a giant dragon to help fight?
He could recognize that the dragon in front of him was not the demon dragon just now. There was a size difference between the two.
The dragon is bigger and more oppressive.
However, this does not mean that this giant flame dragon does not have any.
At this moment, in this situation, the appearance of Shyvana after dragon transformation brought a sense of oppression and intimidation to the Noxian soldiers, no less than the previous dragon.
Now, everything seems to be explained.
For example, why Demacia's army was not affected by the dragon at all.
Obviously, it was this giant flame dragon that helped them defeat the magic dragon.
Demacia, on the other hand, just like waiting for the enemy, put more energy on the defense of the city gate, setting up an ambush here early, waiting for them to come.
Patria, who realized this, felt a little more chill all over his body, his heartbeat was beating like a drum, and his breathing was quickened.
No, no, no!
At this time, Shyvana had already entered the enemy army and started killing with all her heart. She bit, breathed, and charged, directly turning the Noxian army upside down, like a torment.
The enemy's weak attack was useless to her.
More and more enemies, because of her appearance, completely lost their fighting spirit, were frightened out of their wits, and became more and more frightened.
Lu Qi knew that although Shyvana was powerful in combat, her transformation could only last for a period of time and consumed a huge amount of energy on her.
Therefore, while her intimidation was at its strongest, she loudly ordered: "Kill for Demacia!"
On Demacia's side, morale reached its peak due to Shyvana's appearance.
"kill!!"
"For Demacia!"
Everyone shouted loudly and followed Shyvana to kill.
"General, the situation is unfavorable and my subordinates recommend retreat!"
Seeing that the soldiers were already struggling to block Demacia's charge, the adjutant shouted loudly towards Patria.
The situation became increasingly unfavorable, and Patria did not dare to hesitate: "Retreat!!"
Now the situation is no longer unfavorable, but one-sided.
Patria had fought many battles and knew that if he continued to fight Demacia, his team would be destroyed sooner or later.
There is no shame in retreating, only staying alive is victory!
Now he still has a chance, that is, to withdraw to the Gate of Sorrow, where he still has 10,000 defenders. With the defenders supporting him, it shouldn't be difficult to block these Demacia soldiers.
After returning, immediately apply for support.
This is his last hope!
He didn't understand why they were overwhelmingly suppressed by Demacia despite having such a huge numerical advantage.
With his brain in chaos, he couldn't think about too many problems at all, and all he could think about was how to escape.
He can't die yet, his future is so bright, he must not fall here!
With this thought in mind, Patria retreated to the front line and rushed faster than anyone else.
Soon, a bunch of black-armored soldiers appeared in his field of vision.
"Great, it's support!"
He looked happy, as if he had grasped the last straw, but he didn't expect that this was the one that broke the camel's back.
A bunch of black-armored soldiers are just the appearance. Behind them, there are more white-armored soldiers.
Seeing this scene, Patria was stunned for a moment, and a strong bad feeling exploded in his heart.
"General! The Gate of Sorrow has been breached! What should we do!"
The adjutant who escaped from the Gate of Sorrow looked at Patria with a desperate look on his face. When he saw more Demacia soldiers chasing after Patria, he became even more desperate.
"What did you say?"
When Patria heard these words, he felt a "boom" in his head, like a bomb exploding.
He actually heard it, but he couldn't believe it.
The adjutant lowered his head: "The Gate of Sorrow was breached. Just after you sent out troops, the enemy's prince led 10,000 soldiers to surprise us."
"Prince."
Patria's slightly dazed eyes looked at Jarvan IV, who was leading the way.
Then he looked at the pursuers behind him and suddenly laughed to himself: "I see."
He, it turns out, is the turtle in the urn.
The appearance of the magic dragon and its powerful combat power gave him false hope.
He didn't expect Demacia to deal with it so quickly. They had even prepared an ambush in advance. They had arranged people to guard the Gate of Sorrow as early as possible.
What we are waiting for is that he confidently leads the troops to attack.
He brought a large number of troops out of the city, which directly reduced the difficulty of siege of the Gate of Sorrow.
Thinking about it this way, even when the demon dragon appeared at the Gate of Sorrow, the army led by Jarvan IV was already ambushing outside the Gate of Sorrow.
They actually made so many preparations in advance?
The gunpowder first blew away his self-confidence, and the broken door of sorrow completely defeated him.
He had fought so many victorious battles since he joined the army, but he never expected that he would fall through the Gate of Sorrow in the easy difficulty level.
No, no, no!
His fate shouldn't be like this. The witch said that his future is bright.
He shouldn't have collapsed here. After all, what went wrong?
"General, the enemy is coming, what should we do?"
The adjutant's anxious shout brought Patria back to his senses.
He looked around and saw enemies on all sides. His troops were unable to retreat.
"Fight to the death!"
He raised his battle ax high and let out a cry of despair, but his trembling voice betrayed the fear in his heart.
At this time, if you don’t do this, what can you do?
Only fight to the death.
Only fight to the death!
Fight to the death, but still have a chance of survival!
"Fight to the death!"
Surrounded by echoing roars, even though their fighting spirit has been shattered, their morale has been shattered.
But at the moment of life and death, everyone can unleash more potential.
No one wants to die by the enemy's sword without doing anything.
So, the Noxian army's final counterattack began. They started attacking like crazy, trying to break out of the encirclement.
However, under the tight siege of Demacia, these counterattacks seemed ineffective.
Demacia is best at shield formations. On the battlefield, a shield formation forms an insurmountable wall.
At this time, the shield soldiers were in front, leaving no opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of. With such a huge advantage, no one advanced eagerly and steadily.
The Noxian troops were gradually surrounded, and the space for them to move became less and less. Someone fell every moment.
Seeing the corpses of their companions falling beside them further aroused people's inner fear of death.
As a general, Patria was protected in the middle, but this was also the time when he suffered most.
He still remembered the triumph he felt after breaking through the Gate of Sorrow. At that time, he thought that Demacia was nothing more than that.
But why did he suddenly fall into such a situation?
"General, we will fight a bloody path for you!"
Several lieutenants were loyal, holding weapons in hand, and fought towards the Demacia encirclement.
However, he soon died under the siege, without even breaking out of a breach.
There are fewer and fewer people left.
At this time, most of the soldiers had given up resistance. They had seen that any struggle was of no use.
Everyone's face was ashen.
The siege stopped and looked at the enemy. Some people looked at Lu Qi, waiting for his order.
Lu Qi just said expressionlessly: "Leave no one behind."
In his opinion, these enemies did not even have the meaning of taking prisoners.
As soon as the words fell, countless bows and arrows were aimed at the encirclement.
At the last moment, Patria looked straight at Lu Qi and saw the coldness in his eyes.
The second prince of Demacia.
It seems that everything that went wrong started after he appeared.
Obviously, this is not what the witch said.
he.
Before he could finish his thoughts, arrows mercilessly penetrated his body.
As Patria's body fell heavily, it also announced the end of the border war.
