The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 187 Talent·Star Spirit·Qinglong

[Turn on talent! 】

Huo Jixing had just fallen into consciousness and was not yet mentally prepared.

The next moment!

The dark green data flow that should have been silent once again filled his eyes.

The extremely bright mottled brilliance was like fireworks overflowing, covering up the red-golden light.

Faintly, Huo Jixing saw all kinds of shining stars, as luxurious as pearls, filling the sky.

Until the end of all the stars, a flash of green light, like the brilliance of the sky, firmly occupies the eastern world.

[Congratulations to the host, you have activated your talent. Star Spirit Azure Dragon! 】

The cold system prompt sounded in his ears, and Huo Jixing came back to his senses, with a look of surprise on his face.

Compared to when [Star Spirit Suzaku] was turned on, he had to adapt a lot.

Huojixing is no longer a Noxian scout who first came to Valoran.

Now he has [Star Spirit·Suzaku Stance] and can actually feel his own changes.

However, the opening of new talents is more mysterious than Huo Jixing thought.

With his spirit fully developed, he realized that he was entering a new star map before he could sense anything.

It’s called, Qinglong Star Chart!

Huo Jixing stands alone in the endless starry sky.

Looking at the stars streaking across the dark sky, the light changes in thousands of ways.

The ancient and mysterious Qinglong Qisu hangs in the world, like dragon scales, row upon row, exuding a vast and boundless atmosphere.

In the brilliance of all the stars, he seemed to see the green dragons of the four spirits of heaven reflected in the endless starry sky.

The green dragon has a body like a long snake, a unicorn head, a carp tail, a long beard on its face, and deer-like antlers with five claws.

It has a majestic appearance and is extremely luxurious, looming like the most noble divine beast in the world.

The glazed lines on its body shine even more brightly like gems under the reflection of the stars.

Suddenly!

The blue dragon raised its head and roared, its two horns fought against the stars, and the world in all directions was shaken.

It dances among the stars, soaring freely, like a god descending to earth.

Behind it, the Qinglong Qisu echoed each other, and countless, dream-like rays of light trailed in, as if they were controlling wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and controlling the changes in the world.

"Spica!"

When Huo Jixing was in shock, strange fluctuations spread to his consciousness.

He saw the Qinglong Qisu, which was uncertain in brightness and extinction, and suddenly a green star lit up. It was located in the first constellation. It was as bright as the horn of a blue dragon, soaring into the sky.

The dragon horn is the first charge in the fight, representing the ferocious nature of the green dragon.

Therefore, Spica is responsible for killing and prolonging life.

"It's easy to understand how soldiers kill, Yansheng?"

Huo Jixing's expression changed, he lowered his eyes and saw his body standing in the starry sky.

There were bursts of green light, like palm-sized dragon scales, growing out from the body and covering the whole body.

"The energy of Donghua Yimu!"

Huo Jixing's heart moved, and when he looked at Qinglong in the distance, his golden eyes happened to be lowered.

In a daze, he found himself back in the hotel room.

[Talent·Star Spirit·Blue Dragon]!

Huo Jixing calmed down his inner emotions, called up the data panel, and saw the new star spirit Qinglong added to his talent.

At the same time, he felt a touch of cyan brilliance emerging from his body out of thin air.

Compared to the scorching violence of Nanli Fire.

The temperature of Donghua Yimu is much milder, and it circulates in the body all the time, attaching a layer of cyan light to every internal organ, neutralizing the scorching red-gold flames.

Extend your life?

Huo Jixing had an idea and vaguely felt that his life span had been extended.

Maybe it's more than that.

Huo Jixing's expression changed as he thought of the green dragon that had just circled the east, looking up and roaring.

He stretched out his slender palm, played with the red fire blade, and cut his fingers.

Like cutting leather, the sharp blade sliced ​​the fingertips, revealing the rolled flesh.

However, before the blood could flow out, red gold and cyan brilliance flowed alternately.

But in the blink of an eye, the flesh and blood healed, the skin regenerated, and everything was restored as before, without any scars.

"This!" Huo Jixing was horrified in his heart.

Nanli's fire already has a certain healing effect, but now coupled with Donghua Yimu's energy, the effect is really terrifying.

The state of immortality?

Huo Jixing suddenly thought of the legend about Suzaku and Qinglong in his previous life.

Then he thought that once his body could perfectly adapt to [Star Spirit·Suzaku Stance], then add the energy of Donghua Yimu provided by [Star Spirit·Qinglong].

Perhaps it is really possible to achieve the state of immortality.

call!

Huo Jixing took a deep breath, suppressed the active thoughts in his heart, closed his eyes and silently felt the potential changes in his body.

The Qi of Donghua Yimu was slowly changing his body, stimulating his organs and increasing his physical strength.

He expected that it would take some time for his transformation to be complete.

But just the amazing effect now has already surprised Huo Jixing.

With the Qi of Donghua Yimu, he can use the Fire of Nanli unscrupulously.

Even if it exceeds the threshold, it will not burn its own flesh and blood.

Instead, priority was given to consuming Donghua Yimu's energy.

Huo Jixing opened his eyes, the green light flashed fleetingly, and a little gold adorned the black pupils.

"Ok?"

When Huo Jixing heard the noise coming from downstairs, he was confused and mentally stretched out.

In an instant, he noticed that a dark hole emerged wherever his spirit reached, swallowing up the surrounding elemental energy and suppressing all magic runes.

"Forbidden Demon Stone? The Demon Searchers are here."

In front of the hotel.

The demon-hunting investigator wearing a fur coat, leading Demacia Kingdom soldiers, knocked on the door.

"Please forgive me for interrupting, but we need your cooperation and assistance."

Looking at the gentle-tempered Dawn who opened the door, the demon-hunting investigator showed his token and motioned for the soldiers from the Kingdom of Demacia behind him to enter the hotel.

"We have received some notifications about 'strange events'"

The Demon Searching Investigator touched the Forbidden Demon Stone Plate on his chest and looked at the environment of the hotel.

"Is there anyone else living in the hotel besides you?"

"Sir, you are joking, there must be someone living in the hotel." Dawn looked respectful, with a hint of nervousness in her dark eyes.

Although Dawn calls the demon searchers hyenas.

But there is no doubt that the demon seeker's sense of smell is indeed very sensitive, and his perception of rune magic is extremely keen.

"Have the identities of all the residents been verified?" the Momo Search Investigator realized his slip of the tongue and asked patiently.

He looked at every guest invited by the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia, but quietly clenched the heavy wooden cane in his hand.

"Sir, this is Mithril City, the most prosperous city in the North." Dawn shook her head slightly, her tone helpless.

“There are so many people who come here for short stays every month that we can’t check them at all.”

"Perhaps you can ask the Centurion."

Dawn's eyes fell on the Demacian centurion beside the demon-hunting investigator. This guy collected the protection fee he paid every month.

"Ahem, Dawn, answer the investigator's questions honestly." The Demacia centurion looked slightly embarrassed and pointed to the demon-hunting investigator in front of him.

"Oh, no need."

The Demon Searching Investigator's eyes flickered and he chuckled, understanding the underlying rules.

Then his sharp gaze fell on the guests invited out one by one. When he saw that his magic-forbidden stone plate showed no response, he was filled with doubts.

Not long ago, when he was searching the street in front, the magic-forbidden stone disk he was wearing had made slight movements, pointing to this area. He immediately led people to cordon off the area and began to screen everyone.

"Isn't it here?"

The demon-searching investigator looked past Huo Jixing and others and signaled the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia to search the room carefully again.

After waiting for a while, I saw the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia returning empty-handed.

The demon-searching investigator's eyes were dark, and he sighed softly. His fingers brushed the magic-forbidden stone plate he was wearing, and a bold smile appeared on his rough face.

"I'm sorry for interrupting your business, and for bringing you trouble. I wish you a happy trip to Mithril City."

The demon-searching investigator had a gentle attitude and bowed slightly to Dao En, Huo Jixing and others.

Then he took the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia and quickly left the hotel and went to other buildings.

"Is it that sensitive?"

Huo Jixing hid among the many residents and watched the demon search investigator and others leave quickly.

As soon as he opened a new talent, the Demon Searching Investigator noticed a slight movement and used the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia to seal off the area.

Now it seems that the detection methods of the demon-seeking army cannot be underestimated.

Fortunately, what he possesses is the power of the stars. As long as it is hidden well, the Forbidden Demon Stone Disk cannot detect it.

As for the runes worn by Huo Jixing, they were already hidden in a secret compartment in the room when the demon-searching investigators came.

After looking at Dawn.

Huo Jixing pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, walked upstairs and returned to his room.

To the north of Mithril City, there are ice and snow mountains stretching for thousands of miles.

The warm summer sun reaches its highest point, just lighting up the secret sentry deep in the canyon, almost integrated with the mountains.

"Phew, it's finally noon."

In the sentry built of pale marble, Demacia's vanguard sentry leaned against the wall and looked at the blazing sun hanging in the sky, his expression relaxed.

The temperature deep in the canyon is too cold.

"Enjoy this moment."

In the sentry room behind, a vanguard sentry guard wearing shining plate armor and a silver helmet came out, carrying a shield on his back and a long sword hanging on his waist.

He looked at the towering stone walls on both sides of the canyon, like two ruthless barriers, blocking all light from the outside world.

Only at noon every day.

Only when the sun reaches its highest point can it bring them the slightest warmth of sunlight.

"Is it foggy?"

The vanguard sentry holding the sword at his waist looked at the diffuse mist, and his heart suddenly tightened.

The mist in front of me was pale and thick, as if pouring out from deep underground, slowly covering every inch of the land in the canyon.

Even if there is warm sunshine falling, it still brings a cold breath, making people feel a little bit of inexplicable fear and uneasiness.

"Alert!" The vanguard sentry immediately shouted and drew the sword from his waist.

In an instant.

The quiet sentry quickly began to boil. The five vanguard sentries stationed were fully armed and appeared in their respective positions.

"What's wrong?" a vanguard sentry asked.

"It's too quiet!" the sword-wielding vanguard sentry replied solemnly.

Although the canyon was already quiet, that didn't mean she was safe.

On the contrary, in this silence, there are unknown dangers and unknown enemies.

For example, across the mountains came the ruthless raiders from the Freljord, who wreaked havoc on the kingdom of Demacia.

The atmosphere deep in the canyon seemed increasingly silent as the pale mist filled the air.

Suddenly!

The subtle sound of shackles sounded.

In the pale mist, the sword blades and armor made of Demacian steel shimmered with a cold texture.

These well-made equipment are extremely eye-catching in the fog, as if they are the patron saints of the vanguard sentries.

The vanguard sentries, wearing shining plate armor and holding sharp swords, stared in the direction of the source of the sound, preparing to attack.

Their eyes are firm and cold, and they are ready to face any challenge.

Clang!

The clang of heavy shackles, like the sound of a trumpet, sounded before the sentry.

The vanguard sentries launched an attack instantly, like streaks of silver lightning, crossing the fog and launching a ferocious attack toward the source of the sound in front of them.

Buzz!Buzz!

The sharp blade drew sharp arcs in the air, cutting through the pale mist.

The vanguard sentries saw a shirtless man with heavy shackles wrapped around his hands, walking towards him, with cold murderous intent in his blue eyes.

Clang!

The blade struck the heavy shackles, making a dull low sound.

Before the vanguard sentries could react, terrifying power struck along the blade.

In addition to this, there was also a surging blue light, wrapped in pale mist, which instantly submerged their figures.

Click! Click! Click! Click! Click!

Under the faint blue light, the Angzang man gently waved the heavy shackles wrapped around his wrists.

Every swing will be accompanied by the sound of the blade breaking or the armor denting.

After five consecutive swings, the cold and hard ground was covered with the bodies of the vanguard sentries.

"Demacian steel?" The man in hiding squatted half-crouched, picked up the broken weapon, and looked at it.

Demacian steel, sometimes called silversteel or runesteel.

The metal alloy produced in the Kingdom of Demacia has long been famous in Runeterra.

Rumor has it that Demacia's armorers use holy water to quench metal alloys to provide magic resistance on the battlefield.

This is also the reason why the vanguard sentries can resist the erosion of the blue light just now.

"Being able to provide Demacia steel to the vanguard sentries, it seems that the kingdom has become more prosperous during this period." Silas stood up, his blue eyes falling to the south.

"Evel, clear the battlefield."

Hearing Silas's voice, a young scout came out of the pale mist, but the weather in his pale eyes was very inconsistent with his age.

"Okay." Ewell came over and whispered the spell.

Under his spell, the pale and thick mist dimmed, and behind it appeared many outlaws, all of them followers of Silas.

"Don't cancel the fog." Silas spoke softly, his blue eyes falling towards the sky.

"Be careful of the Demacian Dragon Bird Knight."

Evel nodded, keeping the mist thick and covering the sentries deep in the canyon.

"Let the ruthless raiders of the Freljord follow." Silas looked at the dozen or so most trusted mages behind him and ordered.

"We have to race against time. We must attack the prison before Mithril City discovers it."

"I will notify them immediately." A mage left quickly, and the wind blew under his feet, causing him to float in the air.

Silas looked at the sentry and vanguard sentry that had been dealt with, and stepped out of the canyon.

The reason why he knew the location of the vanguard sentries so clearly was because someone secretly provided him with a military distribution map of the northern part of the Kingdom of Demacia.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so eager to rush to Mithril City.

Time waits for no one, and Silas must complete his plan before the Kingdom of Demacia discovers him.

"The Kingdom of Demacia is no longer united as before." Silas walked out of the canyon step by step and looked at the misty mountains.

"Fifteen years of darkness have taught me a lot."

Da da!Da da!

The sound of rapid steps was heard, and an old mage in ragged clothes walked quickly with a hurried look on his face, holding a letter in his hand.

"There is news that people from the Noxus Empire want to meet you."
