The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 95 Cui Farley Training Ground
The winter night is a little quiet.

The stars in the dim sky are like blinking eyes, with a cold light, observing the suffering of hunger and cold in the world.

Huo Jixing stood on the windowsill, looking at the Noxus capital in the distance.

Within the dark gray high walls, the brightly lit immortal fortress is like a crown jewel, dazzling and eye-catching.

Compared with the high-rise buildings in previous lives, it is no less generous.

But outside the high walls, the stretches of slums look like black ribbons wrapped around bright pearls, becoming embellishments.

In a hazy moment, he seemed to see Eric, Moore, Sheruba and others under the starry sky.

They were looking at me from a distance, waving their arms and smiling.

"Noxus!"

Huo Jixing thought of what he saw when he entered the slums during the day.

Dirty ground full of sewage, collapsed and dilapidated houses, almost skeleton-like children and old people, and greedy and exploitative gangs.

Maybe it's the memory of a previous life, maybe it's the influence of life in the Noxus camp on the border of Northland, or maybe it's the impression brought by Eric and others.

In short, he is full of expectations for the Noxus Empire.

But what happened in the slums completely shattered the beautiful filter he had for the Noxus Empire deep in his heart.

What is now presented is the extremely real Noxus!
He couldn't see the prosperous environment, the dazzling streets, or the people living happily!
"Immortal Fortress, Citizen!"

Huo Jixing thought of DeWitt's vow to leave the slums with his family and enter the Immortal Fortress, and he vaguely understood.

As the [Trefari Proclamation] said, the roots of the Noxian Empire are completely rotten.

At the same time, it also allowed him to see the darkness of the Noxus Empire!
He believed that the social atmosphere in Noxus was inclusive, and that all talents and talents of every citizen would be respected and given the opportunity to be cultivated.

"What about ordinary people? Paupers, slaves?"

Huo Jixing suppressed his restless emotions.

He never felt that his moral standards were higher than those of the general public.

Even though he came to the continent of Valoran, was baptized by war, and possessed extraordinary power, he did not do evil or kill wantonly.

However, now, the real scenes he saw in the slums and the incident involving Moore's widow's pension completely shattered his concept of his previous life.

Compared to the Gray Wolf Gang and some people in the Immortal Fortress.

He can definitely be regarded as a moral role model!
"Awe, you should be in awe of power!" Huo Jixing looked at the glittering Noxus capital surrounded by lights and whispered softly.

time flies.

The atmosphere in the hill camp began to become more and more noisy as the martial law was lifted.

Many Noxian soldiers come in and out of the camp every day, bringing exciting experiences within the capital, as well as the magnificent scene of the Immortal Fortress.

Huo Jixing waited in the camp for two days, but Wilson seemed a little busy and never returned to the camp, and no news came.

Fortunately, Korda woke up successfully, and the injuries on his arms and head were treated and gradually healed.

Moore's widow also adapted to the new environment with DeWitt's help.

As for their occasional inquiries about Moore, DeWitt covered it up very well - he stayed at the border of Northland and would come back when his service was over.

This is an excuse with an expiration date.

I hope I can hide it as much as possible until everything is dealt with.

But while waiting.

Huo Jixing will also continue to practice his skills instead of focusing all his attention on the pension issue.

In the southeast corner of the camp, Cuifali Training Ground.

Huo Jixing looked at the dark gray stern building in front of him, with the red double-edged ax empire flag fluttering in the cold wind.

The thick wall outside is about three feet high, and the eaves and walls are densely covered with stacks. You can see many Noxian soldiers wearing armor patrolling.

Huo Jixing took the sword boy Heini up the stairs and entered the center of the training ground.The internal building structure is similar to that of the ancient Roman Colosseum, with a circular depression in the middle that divides different training venues and fighting areas.

The surrounding walls are covered with seats, like terraces, arranged in an orderly manner from top to bottom.

As soon as he walked in, Huo Jixing saw many children in the training ground. They were holding wooden weapons and competing with each other.

Seemingly sensing Huo Jixing's doubts, sword boy Heini spoke.

"From my generation onwards, any child who belongs to the Noxian forces is a member of the Noxian Empire."

"They are trained from a young age, perseverance, discipline, determination!"

"If you perform very well in training, you will be recruited by the Noxus Chapter and become a Noxian soldier."

Sword boy Heini looked at the children who were training and seemed to see his former self.

“There’s a proverb where I come from.”

He was raised by the shepherds and took care of the herds and pack animals every day, keeping them fat and strong until the harvest.

During that time, he learned to butcher cleanly and neatly, and also learned the principle of never leaving one's body with a knife.

The childhood practice will benefit him a lot in the future, and therefore Noxus will recruit sword boys to serve the country.

"Kill your enemies into your own family!"

Hearing this, Huo Jixing looked stunned.

Then he thought that the Noxus Empire was established by its own force, and he suddenly became enlightened.

Enemies of the Noxian Empire never hate Noxus.

Because all it takes is one ritual to turn the empire's enemies into new territories.

Yesterday's enemies will become Noxian soldiers today with honor and mission, standing on the front line of the Noxian Empire.

"Captain Ten, here we are!" Sword Boy Heini pointed to the dark gray room in front of him.

This is a training ground dedicated to serving officers. The ground is paved with blue-gray boulders, and the surrounding walls are covered with weapons of different styles.

"Do you need someone to train with you?" Heini, the sword boy, asked.

When Huo Jixing came over, he saw that in the training ground outside, there were many people training in pairs, and there were spectators sitting next to them.

"Need not!"

He waved his hand gently and took out Heini's carefully polished and oiled long knife, and the biting cold light shone in his field of vision.

puff!puff!puff!

Suddenly, the empty room was filled with sounds that cut through the air.

Wishes of cold sword light, like stars, flickered in the air, leaving behind afterimages.

Huo Jixing just waved the long knife to vent the restless emotions deep in his heart.

The joy brought by the Freljord's victory in the second war, as well as the positive feedback of his own extraordinary power, disappeared in yesterday's encounter.

He even doubted himself.

What was the purpose of what he and his scout warriors risked their lives in Freljord?
For Noxus?

Or for those in the dark?
Clang!

The slender long knife cut through the air, and with the blessing of Pei Ran's strength, it cut out a white knife light and hit the sharp blade on the wall, making a crisp sound.

"Oh shit!"

Huo Jixing looked at the marks on the wall with his eyes downcast.
