The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 5 Broken Green Gem Necklace

The next morning, crimson light filled the sky, and it seemed like a layer of gold powder decorated the Noxian camp.

Huo Jixing got up early, went out briefly to have breakfast, and then immediately returned to the room.

Due to the explicit rules in the camp, he was unable to carry out his own morning jogging plan, so he mostly chose exercises that could be done in his room.

push ups.

Sit-ups.

Squat.

Run in place quickly.

Small steps and punches.

Huo Jixing quickly entered a state of concentration. Apart from eating, sleeping and washing, he spent most of his time on physical exercise.

Since his goal is to survive, he must work hard for it.

These exercise methods from his previous life allowed him to sweat as much as he wanted in a small room.

In addition to exercising on his own, Huo Jixing will allocate part of his time every day to seek help from DeWitt and conduct some swordsmanship training, hoping to better face the upcoming Freljord mission.

In this way, with the support of sufficient food provided by the camp, Huo Jixing began to exercise crazily, reaching exhaustion almost every day.

In this state of concentration and hard work, he quickly adapted to his recovered body, and at the same time he deeply realized how strong and powerful a body with [Advanced Warrior] skills was.

Unfortunately, there was too little time.

All the efforts put in can never change the cold and cruel life.

Time passes, and a few days pass by in a hurry.

That night.

The sky is full of stars, shining brightly and dimly, looming and appearing, filling the dark night sky.

In the small room, Huo Jixing was lying on the ground. A large amount of sweat covered his naked upper body, accumulating on the ground along the lines of his strong muscles.

"Whirring whirring!"

Huo Jixing panted heavily, completed the last set of sit-ups, raised his body with his arms, half leaned against the bed board, and opened the data panel.

[Name: Huo Jixing]

【Essence: 0】

【Strength: 1.23】

[Physical: 1.19]

[Agility: 1.24]

【Spirit: 2.15】

[Skills: Intermediate warrior, wilderness survival]

[Talent: None]

In terms of data, there have been small changes and improvements in various attributes. It can be seen that the training during this period has still achieved certain results.

But in terms of skills, they are ultimately no match for the cruel reality.

Even with muscle memory, Huo Jixing could barely master swordsmanship. As for the training of other weapons, he had to give up.

This also caused the entry of [Advanced Warrior] to drop and become [Intermediate Warrior].

After a short rest, Huo Jixing's physical strength recovered to a certain extent. Then he stood up, walked to the wooden table, picked up the stone bowl and drank the cold water in it.

In an instant, the cold stimulation suppressed the heat in the body, and he was full of energy.

With the help of the night stars, Huo Jixing wiped his body with cold water, lay on the bed, and thought carefully.

Tonight is the last leisure time. At dawn tomorrow, it will be time for the mission given by Captain Eric, which also means that he is about to enter Freljord.

Huo Jixing sighed softly and took out a necklace with a linen rope threaded through it from his neck. There was a green gem hanging on it. You could clearly see the fine cracks on the gem, which destroyed the overall beauty.

This was the last legacy left by his predecessor, and it was also the first extraordinary item Huo Jixing came into contact with.

The stars in the night fell, soaking through the fine green gems, reflecting the hazy emerald green light in front of Huo Jixing's eyes.

How did he get this green gem necklace? He searched for the memories of his previous life, but he didn't know. He could only vaguely remember the tragic battle in Freljord.

As for its extraordinary characteristics, Huo Jixing has roughly figured it out after this period of testing.

It can slowly and effectively restore physical strength and heal body injuries of all sizes!
The reason why his seriously injured body could heal so quickly was not only the treatment of Noxian doctors and alchemical potions, but also the broken green gem necklace.

During this period of time, his crazy exercise that almost exhausted his energy every day was also based on the confidence brought by this green gem necklace.

Otherwise, with his training method, even the body of a [senior warrior] would not be able to withstand it.Finger caressing the broken green gem, the data panel in Huo Jixing's pupils began to flicker, and hazy messages came from time to time, wanting to decompose the shimmering green gem in his hand.

"Decompose it? Is it true that the essence can be obtained like in the previous life?" Huo Jixing whispered softly, with the appearance of green gems reflected in his eyes.

This necklace seemed familiar to him when he first got it. It looked like the equipment [Healing Gem] in the League of Legends game.

But lacking extraordinary knowledge, he was unable to make a final decision.

It was also at that time that the data panel continued to flash, making Huo Jixing realize something.

Reminiscent of the decomposition of items in the League of Legends game, this led him to guess that the essence in the data panel was obtained by decomposing rune items.

If it were in the belly area of ​​the Noxus Empire, or in another safe place, Huo Jixing would not hesitate to choose to disassemble this broken green gem necklace to find the answer.

But the situation we are in now is different.

The Noxian camp surrounded by red flags, the Freljord covered in ice and snow, and a scouting mission with uncertain life and death.

He couldn't gamble on what he could get after decomposition.

The most important thing is that this broken green gem necklace has brought him real benefits, which he cannot give up.

"I hope you bring good luck to this mission!"

Huo Jixing kissed the green gem necklace gently, put it carefully into his arms, then closed his eyes and rested, snoring gradually.

The night passed, and the dawn came.

A golden light appeared on the snow-white sky, soaking in the light blue sky and the towering mountain peaks.

Almost at the moment when the light of dawn fell on the room, Huo Jixing automatically opened his eyes, and the morning scenery outside the window was reflected in his bright pupils.

Get up, wash up, and put on your armor.

Huo Jixing completed everything silently, and then began to sort out the items in the corner of the room.

Most of these items were delivered by DeWitt yesterday, including cloaks, water bags, rations and military equipment, and were finally put into a gray-white leather suitcase.

Squeak!

After closing the door, Huo Jixing looked back at the stone house where he lived alone. He picked up his heavy luggage, turned around and faced the early morning glow, and walked forward.

It was just dawn and there were not many people on the street. Huo Jixing walked along the familiar bluestone road.

After a while, Huo Jixing saw a group of Noxian scouts wearing crimson composite armor in front of a dark gray three-story building.

Everyone in front of him either had a long sword on his waist, or carried an ax or a shield on his back. Like him, they all carried heavy leather bags.

Huo Jixing took a rough scan and found that including himself, there were exactly ten people.

While waiting, the Noxian scouts chatted and laughed with each other, but Huo Jixing saw the hidden coldness in their eyes and faces.

This is the cold temperament unique to Noxus' elite scouts, forged with countless blood and lives.

"Xing!" DeWitt said hello when he saw Huo Jixing coming.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Noxian scouts who were talking at the same time stopped talking, and their eyes fell on Huo Jixing one by one, sizing up this new partner.

"DeWitt!" Huo Jixing reluctantly suppressed the throbbing in his heart, walked to the team, responded to DeWitt with a smile, and then spoke respectfully to the tall and strong figure at the front of the team.

"Captain of ten!"

"Yes!" Eric nodded, then clapped his hands gently, motioning for everyone to look over: "Everyone is here, let's go directly."

There was no declaration, no ceremony.

Eric simply walked away with his Noxian scouts, as if the mission he was about to begin was not a bloody killing, but a relaxing outing.

Although Huo Jixing was a little surprised and doubtful in his heart, he chose to remain silent and walked at the end of the team, with DeWitt in front of him.

As they moved forward, the sound of scattered footsteps accompanied the group of people as they left the rest area.

Directly west of the campground.

The majestic city walls built with thick dark gray rocks silently demonstrated the power of Noxus; the crimson flags fluttering in the wind made a faint sound, seeming to encourage every Noxian soldier who stepped out of the camp. .

Huo Jixing, who was waiting in line, looked at the open steel door and felt a little shocked in his heart.

They were not the only ones. What they could see from their field of vision was a crowd of people, like giant red dragons, rushing forward one after another, rushing towards the ice and snow world in a turbulent and savage way——

Freljord!
It was also at this time that Huo Jixing truly realized that the cruel war was around him, and he was about to step into this flesh-and-blood millstone and struggle to survive.

"Hey, Xing! Relax, don't be nervous!" DeWitt in front turned his head, looked at Huo Jixing, who looked slightly stiff, and said with a grin.

"Blood is the wine of victory. You will slowly get used to the taste of blood!"
