The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 173 Lonely Poro Vanguard Sentinel
Hoo hoo!Hoo hoo!
The biting cold wind blew through the village, blowing the blazing flames, as if mourning for these lost lives.

Huo Jixing stepped onto the blood-stained ground and looked around, carefully observing the ruined village.

As he had seen earlier, there was no trace of life in the village.

The once warm home turned into a bloody hell.

Collapsed wooden houses can be seen everywhere, with broken roofs and walls blackened by flames, in stark contrast to the white snow.

Huo Jixing shook his head slightly. In this cold world of ice and snow, flames brought warmth and light, but also death and destruction.

Just as he was about to leave this miserable village.

Squeak!Squeak!
Suddenly.

Under the burning flames, there was a subtle cry.

Huo Jixing looked intently and saw a snow-white little guy running out from the shadow of the collapsed corner of the wall, heading straight for him like lightning.

"Ok?"

Huo Jixing raised his brows lightly and realized something.

The Nanli Fire within the body rises, and the red-gold flames cover the body, isolating external objects.

Perhaps he was frightened by the flames earlier.

The snow-white little guy looked at the lit Nanli Fire and stopped one meter in front of Huo Jixing, not daring to take even half a step further.

His trembling and pitiful appearance is a bit like a snow rabbit, silly and cute.

"Poro?"

Huo Jixing's eyes flashed and he instantly recognized the little guy's identity.

It has snow-white fur, a body as big as a fist, and two small gray horns on its head.

An almost perfect representation of the Poro appearance seen in his previous life.

However, now it was squatting in the snow, its dark eyes wide open, looking pitifully at Huo Jixing.

"Is it the Poro left in the village?"

Huo Jixing's eyes glowed with red-gold light, but no Poro clouds were seen rising.

"Special type of life?"

Huo Jixing was filled with doubts and turned his eyes.

Seeing this little guy wanting to get closer to me, but being afraid of the flames, he looked extremely pitiful.
Immediately, he put away the Nanli Fire, squatted down, and reached out to stroke the snow-white fur.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

The scorching heat dissipated the chill of ice and snow, making the little guy squint his eyes in comfort.

Immediately afterwards, it seemed not to be afraid of strangers at all. It quickly crawled along Huo Jixing's palm to his shoulder and lay down safely.

Seeing this, Huo Jixing shook his head and chuckled, letting the little guy stay on his shoulder.

Then he crossed the ruined village and walked deep into the snow-covered mountains.

Light snowflakes swayed between the peaks and fell all over the mountains.

Huo Jixing immersed himself in moving forward, taking every step very carefully, fearing that he would fall into the mountain stream if he was not careful.

Although he wouldn't care, the Poro on his shoulder seemed a little scared.

The little guy curled up, his gray-white claws firmly grasping his shoulders, and his dark eyes wanted to look down, but he didn't dare to open them.

"Ha ha."

Huo Jixing chuckled, Poro's timid look was really cute.

The originally boring journey became a little more interesting with the addition of Poro.

Having said that, he still misses the Noxus Empire's [Noxtra], which is fast and convenient, and does not have to travel thousands of miles to travel.

Huo Jixing stood on the rocks and looked into the distance.

Within the field of vision, the snow-covered mountains seemed to be wrapped in clouds and mist, with no outline visible.

"After crossing the mountains, there is still some distance before we can enter the territory of the Kingdom of Demacia."

Huo Jixing took out the map and compared his location, he understood clearly.

The jagged mountains covered with light snow in front of you are the natural barrier between the Freljord and the Kingdom of Demacia, preventing most of the Freljord's marauders from wreaking havoc southward.

Huo Jixing let out a breath, walked forward slowly, and started climbing along the mountain road.

As he climbed to the top of the mountain, it seemed that a terrifying storm was brewing in the clouds.

The blue and dark clouds rolled and roared in the endless sky. Occasionally, lightning would appear and make a deafening roar.

But the endless mountains blocked the path of the dark clouds. Huo Jixing left the top of the mountain and walked along the downhill road.

On both sides of the mountain road, he gradually saw many green carpets paved with Demacia pine trees.

Although the green pine trees grew tenaciously despite the severe cold, they were bent by the perennial north wind.

Huo Jixing looked to the east and west.

The jagged mountains were gradually covered by a blue haze, and the sky turned an oppressive dark black.

To the south, half of the plateau is covered by endless forests, dotted with cliffs and rift valleys.

This means that Huojixing has arrived in the Freljord region and has set foot in the Kingdom of Demacia.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

When Huo Jixing was about to move forward, the Poro lying on his shoulder made a sound.

It looked anxious and waved its claws, as if to say that this area was very dangerous.

Huo Jixing understood in his heart, and the fire of Nanli filled his eyes.

In an instant, he saw many clouds rising up, filling the vast cliffs and rift valleys.

"Okay, don't move."

Huo Jixing comforted the restless Snow White Poro and looked at the dangers of the dangerous place in front of him.

Thinking about the ferocious creatures and wild monsters inside, they should be basically complete.

crackling.

In the dark and humid forest, a bright yellow bonfire was lit.

Huo Jixing leaned against the tree trunk and was enjoying the freshly roasted wolf meat.

At his feet, there were several fine pieces of meat, and the snow-white Poro was opening his mouth and chewing slowly.

This dangerous land belonging to the Kingdom of Demacia is indeed full of wild beasts.

In just two days' journey, they had already been attacked more than ten times.

In the end, these beasts who looked down on the situation became Huo Jixing's meal. By the way, Snow White Poro also enjoyed delicious food several times.

After eating the food, Huo Jixing put out the bonfire and moved forward under the cover of night.

The abundant energy brought by the Constellation Star can keep him awake for seven or eight days.

In order to get to the mission location as soon as possible, he was working hard during this period.

"Someone?"

Halfway through the journey, Huo Jixing seemed to notice an unusual aura.

He hid in the canopy of the tree, a red-golden light glowed in his eyes, and then he saw gray-white clouds rising.

Huo Jixing calculated the distance, his heart moved, his body melted into the darkness, and he sneaked over quietly.

"Demacia's Vanguard Sentinel?"

In the tall rift valley, Huo Jixing lowered his eyes.

I saw a young Demacia soldier wearing silver-grey armor and short blond hair hiding and resting.

Not far in front of him, piles of rubble prevented the Freljord's cold wind from blowing, and the bonfire with residual warmth flickered dim sparks.

Even when the young Demacian soldier was sleeping, he was holding a strong and sharp steel sword tightly in his arms, and there was something like a horn hanging on the left side of his waist.

Huo Jixing originally wanted to kill the young Demacia soldier directly, but thought of something and slowly backed away.

In the intelligence of Reese Guards Corps.

In order to deal with the ruthless raiders of the Freljord, the Kingdom of Demacia has placed many vanguard sentries on its borders.

Once marauders attack, vanguard sentries lurking everywhere will deliver the news to the Demacia war group behind them as quickly as possible.

If the vanguard sentry resting in front of him dies suddenly, it will definitely trigger the intervention of military forces on the border of the Kingdom of Demacia.

Huo Jixing didn't want to get into trouble and left under the cover of night.

After leaving the cliffs and rift valleys, the cold weather gradually warmed up.

The surroundings were dotted with gorse and thistles and lush, fertile soil.

Huo Jixing quickly found the trade route of the Kingdom of Demacia. After seeing the fresh ruts on the ground, his expression felt much relieved.

He glanced at the sky, preparing to enter a nearby town before dusk.
