The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 209 Aria of Perseverance and Heroic Hymn

"Aria of Perseverance!"

After Sona's performance, a woman in costume came on stage and announced the name of the song.

Huo Jixing sat in the corner, listening to the whispers around him, and instantly understood the identity of the dressed-up woman in front of him.

Lestara Bouvier.

The widow of the Bouvier family and Sona's adoptive mother.

"The following performance piece is a heroic hymn." Lestara spoke softly.

"To comfort the heroic soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia who died at the Gate of Mourn, as well as the many fearless officers."

After hearing Lestara's words, the atmosphere in the concert hall turned solemn.

Everyone looked sad as they thought about the Kingdom of Demacia's failure in the war at the Gate of Sorrows.

During the confrontation with the Noxus Empire, the Dauntless Vanguard Legion led by Lord Barret was attacked by the magical power of Noxus at the Gate of Mourn.

Not only Lord Barrett was killed on the front lines.

Together with the Fearless Vanguard Legion and the soldiers of the Kingdom of Demacia on the front line, they also suffered heavy losses.

Strings plucked.

The sound of music sounded again in the golden concert hall.

Sona lowered her eyes and face, immersed back in the world she created, and her long and graceful fingers danced the strings like flowing water.

This time the tune is full of power and solemnity, the string rhythm is fast and full of passion.

Huo Jixing nodded slightly and was immersed in the sound of music.

Her closed eyes were full of admiration, and she had to admire Sona's superb piano skills.

This heroic hymn tells the story of indomitable, heroic and fearless spirit.

It vaguely reminds people of the stories of the heroes of Demacia, and makes my heart surge.

Huo Jixing opened his eyes and looked at Sona under the red velvet curtain. She looked like a lady in a painting, with her neck stretched out, her beauty revealed, and her eyes as bright as stars.

This concert was very worthwhile.

He also understood why Sona's music was so highly regarded.

Not only is it a top-notch performance, but it also carries otherworldly magical effects.

Unfortunately, he is Noxian.

is the victor of the War at Mourngate, and has only a normal musical sense for heroic hymns.

After the song ends.

Sona sat upright behind Jue Hua, the glow in her blue eyes gradually disappearing.

Lestara stepped forward and communicated with Sona in sign language.

Sona is a master of piano, but she is mute.

Therefore, the Bouvier family invented a gesture language specifically for Sona so that she could communicate smoothly with her new family and friends.

After receiving the answer, Lestara turned around, faced the audience, and spoke softly.

"Everyone, today's concert ends here. Thank you for your listening and support."

As her words fell, the lights in the concert hall gradually dimmed. Under the spotlight, Sona picked up Jue Hua, bowed and left.

The audience began to stand up and leave, and applause and praise echoed in the concert hall.

They all expressed their admiration and nostalgia for this concert, and felt honored to be able to attend such a wonderful musical feast.

Huo Jixing also ended his meditation, stood up and prepared to leave.

When leaving, he specifically looked in the direction of Lacus and saw Lacus and Kashina walking backstage.

Thinking of the relationship between Kashina and Sona, Huo Jixing understood in his heart.

Then he followed the crowd and slowly left the Golden Concert Hall.

On the way out, Sona's performance still echoed in Huo Jixing's mind.

In addition, he also remembered the strange movements coming from Donghua Yimu's energy in his body.

This is why he left so quickly.

He needs to return to the Leiser Guard Secret House, enter the data panel, and explore the changes in the Green Dragon's Place.

Golden Concert Hall, backstage loft.

Sona hugged Jue Hua, stood behind the white jade handrail, and looked at the audience leaving under the night.

During the concert performance, she felt different magical energies from her music and knew that there were many extraordinary beings in the audience.

But she was surprised to find out.

Of all the extraordinary beings, none has the status of an ordinary citizen.

Most of them are nobles or descendants of nobles.

There is also a small group that is more or less connected with the nobility.

Sona lowered her eyes and looked at Jue Hua in her arms. The musical instrument that accompanied her was shining brightly.

Through looming waves of magic.

She sensed that there were many people carrying runes underneath the golden concert hall.

"Is it a demon hunter?" Sona whispered softly.

After the assassination of King Jarvan III, the Demonseekers rose to power.

Many innocent citizens in the capital were persecuted because they were accidentally exposed to magic and were accused of practicing magic.

Even the Bouvier family is under surveillance by the Demon Seeker Corps.

They suspected that Sona, the heir to the Bouvier family, had been exposed to magic or had mastered magic.

Sona, however, could not clear herself from the crime.

Because it's true.

The musical instrument Juohua in her arms has been confirmed to be a legendary miraculous ancient relic by her mother Lestara's curious investigation.

The source can be traced back thousands of years before the founding of Demacia, making it extremely rare in history today.

Sona also possesses runes and magical powers because of Juhua.

dong dong!dong dong!dong dong!

A crisp knock on the door brought Sona back to her thoughts.

Turning around, she saw her mother Lestara and Kashina walking in together, followed by a girl with long golden hair.

Sona's eyes lit up.

It's Miss Crown Guard, Laxana.

Then she walked over with Jue Hua in her arms, curtsied and saluted.

"Miss Sona, I've heard your name for a long time."

Lux took Sona's arm and chuckled, full of intimacy.

Kashina beside her also nodded slightly with Sona, her eyes showing love and affection.

Although under the influence of many things recently, her relationship with Sona has become somewhat distant.

But they lived together in the Bouvier family for many years.

If it weren't for joining the Illuminators and being unable to get married and have children, Kashina would still have the inheritance rights of the Bouvier family.

Sona stood up and communicated with her mother Lestara in sign language, asking her to help relay the story to Lux.

Under sign language communication.

Lestara nodded frequently, and then talked softly with Lux.

"The Bouvier family wants to donate its collection of books and build a Bouvier library to provide citizens of Xiongdu with the opportunity to read books?"

"This is a good thing, is there something wrong?" Lux asked doubtfully.

"The interference from the Demon Seeker Legion here is due to Lord Eldred's order." Lestara said with a worried look on her face.

"Uncle Eldred?" Lux frowned.

She had met her uncle several times and had given her gifts, and she had a good impression of him.

Lux looked to her side and saw Kashina nodding slightly, thinking for a while.

The Bouvier family is a prominent noble in the capital of Demacia, and its previous owner was Lord Barrett.

He is a close friend of Jarvan III.

He is also a high-ranking officer of the Fearless Vanguard Corps.

If Lord Barrett is still here, the Demon Seeker Legion will definitely not take the initiative to provoke the Bouvier family.

But now with the death of Lord Barrett and Kashina determined to become an Illuminati knight, Sona, as an adopted daughter, has become the next heir of the Bouvier family.

All these changes have caused many people in the capital to covet the interests of the Bouvier family.

"I can try to communicate with Uncle Eldred, but there is no guarantee." Lux finally made a promise.

"Thank you, Miss Crownguard." Lestara curtsied and Sona followed closely behind.

Seeing this, Lux quickly stepped forward and held up Lestara's arms, saying that it didn't have to be like this.

After all, Lestara is also his elder and the wife of Lord Barrett.

In the following time, Lux talked with Lestara and Sona for a while, and then left the golden concert hall.

In the center of the capital, the Crownguard Castle.

Kashina stared at Lux's back, disappeared into the castle, and returned to the carriage.

This is a very ordinary carriage, with a wooden structure giving it a rustic feel.

There are not too many gorgeous decorations on the body, and it looks quite low-key.

However, if you look closely, you can see two obvious emblems on both sides of the carriage.

The emblem of House Crownguard and the Temple of Lightbringer

The forces represented by the two can allow it to flow unimpeded in the capital, and no one dares to intercept it.

As soon as Kashina sat down, the nun in a white robe next to her sent a letter with a white mark.

"Huh? Is there any news about frequent drug transactions?"

Kashina frowned and read the information on the letter carefully.

"My guess is correct. The murderer of Jarvan III is still in the capital and has not left yet."

"And he was seriously injured!"

Kasina's inner thoughts were surging, and a pure white light shone on her fingertips, like a flame, burning the letter.

"Continue to arrange for people to keep an eye on it, and if there are signs of another transaction, follow it immediately."

"Okay." The nun nodded.

"Should we notify the Demon Searchers Legion? Recently, the Demon Searchers have also been secretly searching for relevant clues in the capital."

Kashina's eyes flickered and she shook her head in refusal.

"No need for now, let our knights pay attention."

The nun showed her understanding and tapped the car body gently.

Immediately afterwards, the carriage started and drove towards Bouvier Castle.

Although Kashina chose to become the Illuminator and gave up inheriting the Bouvier family.

But she still had her own room in the castle.

After a cup of tea.

The carriage enters Bouville Castle.

Kashina got out of the carriage and returned to her room.

Under the bright candlelight, she sat on the soft bed, closed her eyes, and wanted to enter a meditative state.

But after a moment, Kashina gave up and opened her amber eyes.

"Father!"

She thought again of her father, Barrett Bouvier, and the smile he left behind before he left.

"The Noxian Empire!"

Kashina gritted her teeth and said, her eyes full of hatred, and she would never forget the scene when her father was buried.

"I hope there will be no trace of your presence in the assassination of His Majesty the King."

In the slum area of ​​Xiongdu, in a quiet underground cave.

Huo Jixing had just returned when he saw Francis waiting.

"What's matter?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask, sir, how was this concert?" Francis asked softly, curiosity appearing on his deep face.

"Have you never heard of it?" Huo Jixing looked curious.

As the head of the Leather Guard Secretariat in Demacia's capital, Francis has been rooted in the capital for a long time.

"Indeed not." Francis looked troubled.

"Miss Sona's concert is so popular that invitations to the homeless are very rare."

"And this concert is Miss Sona's first concert back in the capital of Demacia."

"Ok."

Huo Jixing shrugged his shoulders upon hearing this. It seemed that he was loved by many people.

"I can only say that Miss Sona's concert hall is definitely worth listening to."

"So, the Lord Commander's assessment is correct." Francis' eyes were firm, as if he was determined to win Sona's next concert.

"Have you ever heard of it, Lord Commander?" Huo Jixing said.

There is only one leader in Francis's mouth, Jerry Coswein.

"Yes, the Lord Commander once commented on Sona's musical performance." Francis replied.

"He said that Sona is the secret treasure of Ionia, that her melody makes the soul move, and her silence makes the body divided."

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but admire Swain's literary talent.

Why didn't I make such a literary comment or poem at that time?

After a brief exchange with Francis.

Huo Jixing returned to his room and saw the snow-white Poro sitting on the edge of the bed yet to wake up.

His consciousness immediately sank into the data panel.

"The talent has not changed. Well, there is only the star Spica hanging in the Azure Dragon Star Chart."

Huo Jixing was filled with doubts.

Then he entered the state of "Inspecting One's Own Body" and found that Donghua Yimu's Qi was indeed much more active than usual.

And he noticed that his spirits were also a little more solid.

"Are you influenced by Sona's perseverance arias and heroic hymns?"

Huo Jixing was thoughtful and recalled that the piano in Sona's hand seemed to be an ancient relic.

"Since you are in such good condition, let's light up the stars tonight."

He originally wanted to leave the capital of Demacia and light up the stars in the Azure Dragon Star Chart.

After all, the city under his feet was built based on the Forbidden Demon Stone, and he was afraid of being affected.

But after listening to Sona's concert, Huo Jixing decided that it would be better to choose a different day than to hit the sun, and to hit the sun would be worse than today.

His consciousness sank into the Azure Dragon Star Chart and once again set foot in the familiar starry sky world.

The mysterious and ancient Qinglong Qisu hangs throughout the world.

The brilliant stars, like dragon scales, stand in rows, exuding a vast aura.

Only the deer-like horns of the blue dragon were shining with a green light.

Huo Jixing's eyes moved and looked at the dim stars behind Spica.

"Kangsu Star!"

Kangsu is the second place among the seven places of Qinglong. It is located at the neck of Canglong and is the essence of Canglong.

The dragon's neck is protected by the dragon's horns, and the change drives the whole body.

"Light up Kangsu!"

Huo Jixing's consciousness settled, and the essence on the data panel turned into turbulent blue starlight and poured into Kangsu Star.

Suddenly.

The star of Kangsu shines with a rich green light, like the sun, illuminating the boundless starry sky.

The next moment!

Qinglong Qisu echoes each other from afar, and the dream-like brilliant light seems to control the changes in the world.

Kang Su, main wind, a hundred medicines.

"Wind? Baiyao?" Huo Jixing's eyes lit up.

Soaring in the clouds, driving the mist, and calling for wind and rain are the abilities of the blue dragon.

But Baiyao's ability was a bit incomprehensible to him.

"Wait a minute, Donghua Yimu's Qi, does this mean to replace hundreds of medicines and heal the body?"

Huo Jixing understood clearly in his heart and felt that his body suspended in the starry sky was being transformed by the energy of Donghua Yimu.

"There are still 490 points left in the essence."

He looked at the data panel. The remaining essence could still light up a star.

"The Star of Dixiu!"
