The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 171 Avarosa Rangers

The night is like ink and the moonlight is like silver.

The frozen bay where Ningshuang Harbor is located has become even more mysterious and beautiful.

The tired Freljordians and the traveling caravans enjoyed the night life under the bright lights, adding a touch of heat to the city.

The lights of the clothing store have been turned off, and a closed sign hangs in front of the solid wooden door.

However, in the backyard, there were bright yellow candles lit.

In the warm room, the rough fireplace flickered with scorching flames, like a fire snake dancing.

Huo Jixing sat on a wooden chair and carefully read the parchment in his hand.

Life drifting on the ocean, after all, has many inconveniences, such as intelligence information.

The information on the parchment is information compiled and collected monthly by the Leiser Guard Secretariat in Ningshuang Port.

The Noxus Empire is still shrinking its military power and quelling the chaos within the empire.

Darius has solved many problems of purging the nobles, and is leading the Trefari Legion under his command, which is undergoing repairs in the capital of Noxus.

In the turmoil sweeping the Empire, it seems Swain and the High Command are gaining the upper hand.

But Huo Jixing knew in his heart that there were turbulent undercurrents within the empire, and it was far from as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Moreover, in the corner of the parchment, there was an intelligence message that caught Huo Jixing's attention.

The message is brief and is about the Winter's Claw tribe.

After the Second Battle of Freljord with the Noxus Empire, although the Winter's Claw tribe survived the cold wave, they fell into an endless war and clashed with the bear people.

Rumor has it that Volibear, the immortal mad thunder, sent down divine punishment with the intention of destroying the Winter's Claw tribe.

"Sejuani and her Winter's Claw tribe are in a difficult time now." Thierry noticed Huo Jixing's gaze and spoke softly.

"The spirit bears dedicated to Volibear ignored the cold wave and massacred the Blood Oath Alliance of the Winter's Claw tribe, and they fought fiercely in the southern region of Freljord."

"The blood they shed dyes the snow-white earth red."

Thierry's eyes flickered as he thought of something.

"There are some rumors that His Majesty Ashe and the Avarosa Tribe are secretly involved in this war, providing certain intelligence information and food resources to the Winter's Claw Tribe."

"As for the specific news, it will take time to confirm."

Hearing this, Huo Jixing raised his eyes and stared at Thierry in front of him.

Thierry Lewis, an imperial nobleman, is also the person in charge of Ningshuang Port, where the Reiser Guard Secretariat is located.

"Avarosa tribe?" Huo Jixing thought secretly.

"With the relationship between Ashe and Sejuani, the Avarosa tribe will definitely not sit back and watch the Winter's Claw tribe suffer heavy losses or even be destroyed."

"After all, their enemies are not just the immortal Thunder Volibear."

Huo Jixing thought about what happened in the afternoon. After carefully browsing the parchment, he spoke in a solemn voice.

"Has anything happened near Ningshuang Port recently?"

As soon as he left the frozen bay and entered Ningshuang Port, he was followed.

There must be something other than intelligence going on.

Thierry frowned, and after pondering for a while, he shook his head slightly: "Not yet, maybe it's because the adults came by boat."

Departing from the Blood Cliff Port of the Noxus Empire, we traveled all the way by boat.

It would be okay if they disembarked midway, but the final destination was Ningshuang Port, and it would be difficult not to attract the attention of the Shipping Chamber of Commerce.

After reaching its own territory safely, the Chamber of Commerce will definitely provide relevant intelligence information to the Avarosa tribe.

Huo Jixing nodded, and it was similar to his own speculation: "I will leave tomorrow. Help me prepare a detailed map for the mission."

The location of this secret mission is within the Kingdom of Demacia, and Ningshuang Port is just a transit point.

Huo Jixing was not prepared to stay any longer.

"Ok."

Thierry stood up and left, leaving Huo Jixing alone in the room.

Buzz!Buzz!
Huo Jixing closed his eyes and stretched his spirit. After seeing no one around him, he opened his eyes.

After the black powder incident in Rocklund, he was wary of the Reese garrison secretaries in every place.

This is not doubt, but responsibility for your own safety and mission.

"The Kingdom of Demacia." Huo Jixing lowered his eyes and looked at the information on the parchment. Thierry's Leather Guard Secretariat mentions some mission-related information.

In the border area between Freljord and Demacia, a strange force appeared. It seemed to be very careful, hiding in the ice and snow mountains.

"Are they still secretly gathering strength?"

"Yes, the power of the Kingdom of Demacia cannot be underestimated. They must ensure that their plan is 100% successful."

The night is getting darker, the stars are dim, dotted with the dark frost harbor.

Huo Jixing left the clothing shop, escaped into the darkness, and moved quickly along the map he just memorized.

At the edge of Ningshuang Port, a heavily guarded camp is located on the snow. The tall white tents are arranged neatly, like a carved ice and snow castle.

This is a camp belonging to the Avarosa tribe.

There were clan warriors patrolling all around, and their footsteps sounded under the silent night sky.

Huo Jixing knelt down and saw these clan warriors scanning their surroundings vigilantly, not letting go of any suspicious signs.

"The former capital of the Avarosa tribe, and the trade wealth brought by Ningshuang Port."

Huo Jixing whispered to himself, realizing that the extremely dense camp in front of him was not easy to sneak into.

Immediately, the red-golden light filled the pupils, the ice and snow world turned into a red land, and many clouds rose like wolf smoke.

Most of them are ordinary clan warriors, and the clouds are gray-white, but there are also a lot of ice-blue clouds.

Ordinary people have gray-white clouds, while extraordinary people have different colors of clouds due to different power attributes.

The ice blue clouds we see now.

This represents the camp in Avarosa, where there are many people of the Ice Bloodline.

Huo Jixing hesitated and finally chose to leave secretly.

Breaking in by force would not fit into his plan.

At dawn the next day, the frozen bay was slowly awakened by the gentle light.

Ice blue mist filled the air, like layers of veil covering Ningshuang Harbor.

Huo Jixing took advantage of the diffuse icy mist, holding the map provided by Thierry in his arms, and quietly left, entering the ice and snow mountains.

The endless mountains of ice and snow are somewhat rugged and difficult to navigate, and you need to carefully find your footing with every step.

Huo Jixing looked at the almost identical environment around him, his expression full of memories.

He recalled the embarrassing scene when he first entered the continent of Valoran, and had to enter the ice and snow mountains of Freljord in order to survive.

There was a time when the wind was freezing and the biting chill penetrated the soul.

But now, he can ignore the Freljord's ice trials.

"call!"

Huo Jixing let out a breath, took out the map from his arms, and after confirming it, continued forward.

He needed to cross the ice and snow mountains in front of him and enter the Kingdom of Demacia.

As he continued to move forward, the ice and snow ground began to tremble slightly.

Huo Jixing immediately hid his figure behind the frozen rocks.

"Rangers?"

After waiting for a while, he saw a group of rangers riding Enuk on the mountain road in the distance, rushing on their way quickly.

Under the biting wind and snow, this group of rangers wearing blue leather armor carried a blue flag with arrow-like rune marks engraved on it.

"Avarosa tribe?"

In such an environment, seeing the hurried-looking Avarosa Ranger seemed to indicate that the road ahead was not peaceful.

Moreover, the direction Huo Jixing saw them was heading towards Ningshuang Port.

"Did they do it? It doesn't feel like it."

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered as he looked at the leaving figure of the Avarosa Rangers and began to think.

"They are seeking cooperation and should not offend the Avarosa tribe."

"So... is it some other unexpected situation?"
