Chapter 122: Blood Stains the Sky
When Ye Feng returned to the hotel, it was already the dead of night.
Worried that his movements would wake up his sister, who might have fallen asleep, Ye Feng tiptoed into the room on the second floor.
I could vaguely see a figure on one of the beds, and Ye Feng's hanging heart was put down. Ye Feng slowly walked to the other bed where no one was around, and after sitting down, he wiped the cold sweat from the nervousness on his forehead.
However, a voice with a hint of harshness in his tone frightened Ye Feng's nerves again.
"Xiaofeng, why did you come back so late?"
There is no need to guess, Ye Feng also knows that this voice is Rui Wen's. Ye Feng forcibly squeezed a smile on his face, trying to make himself look less nervous.
Ye Feng explained: "Isn't this for my sister to buy fruit for you!" ”
Rui Wen stared at Ye Feng's face with interest, in her opinion, Ye Feng's smile was more ugly than crying. Ye Feng has been following her since she was a child, and she naturally guessed what happened to Ye Feng on the road.
Rui Wen smiled slyly, "What about the fruit?" ”
"This ......" Ye Feng lowered his head in shame, and put his two index fingers on his chest to poke each other.
Seeing Ye Feng bowing her head, Rui Wen pretended to be angry, and reprimanded seriously: "Don't you tell your sister everything on the road?" ”
Ye Feng was sweating coldly on his forehead, busy snoozing, and told Rui Wen about the encounter with Svein today. As for Sarah and Billgewater, he hid it.
After hearing this, Rui Wen groaned and said: "The next time you encounter this kind of thing, you must tell your sister as soon as you come back, recently, you'd better not go out and run around, and when the blockade of Noxus by other countries is lifted, I will take you out of Piltover." ”
Ye Feng saw that Ruiwen didn't blame himself, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled: "Well, I will definitely inform my sister of you as soon as possible!" ”
Rui Wen nodded with satisfaction, looked at Ye Feng with soft eyes, and said, "Rest early, I'm also a little tired." ”
……
As the night wore on, Irelia stared at the rising sun in the east, her expression in a trance, but it was quickly replaced by a determined look.
After defeating the Noxian forces stationed in the harbor, Irelia continued to lead the Ionian army towards the giant fortress in the central city of Noxus.
Walking at the front of the march, Irelia's brow never relaxed. With years of combat experience, Irelia smelled an imperceptible sense of danger from the unimpeded passage along the way.
Irelia turned her head and summoned the nearest adjutant behind her, "Where are the troops at the rear?" ”
The adjutant replied respectfully, "General Irelia, the troops in the rear should have just landed in the port of Noxus. ”
Irelia shook her head and said, "It's too slow, give the order to all the troops marching behind you, speed up the march, and in a day I must see all the troops outside the east gate of the giant fortress!" ”
"Yes!" The adjutant ordered the horse to turn around and ordered loudly to the troops behind him: "General Irelia has an order, everyone cheer me up, speed up the march, if you can't reach the east gate of the giant fortress in one day, military law will deal with it!" ”
The adjutant coughed again and continued, "The messenger quickly brought this order to the troops in the rear!" ”
When Irelia saw the order, she turned around and muttered, "If you encounter an attack, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach it for three days, right?" ”
Now that Irelia's vanguard had stepped from a wasteland into a small jungle area, Irelia's eyes froze, and she reined in her horse and stopped.
Looking at the knee-high weeds around her, and the giant trees that blocked most of the sunlight, Irelia closed her eyes and calmed down to listen to the movement around her.
In a moment, Irelia opened her eyes, and the heirloom sword in her hand flew to the right.
A roar of what appeared to be a beast came from the right, and Irelia dodged to see a yellow leopard nailed to the ground by her heirloom sword.
Irelia's brows still didn't stretch, and she muttered to herself, "Only the beasts? ”
At this time, Irelia's lieutenants had already followed, and one of the lieutenants asked worriedly, "General Irelia, is something wrong?" ”
Irelia shook her head and said, "I have ordered all soldiers who step into this jungle to dismount and move forward, enter a state of high alert, and if there is any movement, regardless of the consequences, they will be killed immediately, until this order is lifted until they leave this jungle!" ”
With that, Irelia returned to the unit with a few lieutenants and dismounted with the troops.
It wasn't until Irelia left that two men in Noxian uniforms raised their heads from the weeds not far away.
One of the Noxian soldiers looked in horror in the direction Irelia had left and asked, "What do we do now?" ”
Another Noxian soldier sighed, "The two of us are just beast masters, besides, Master Darius said that if Irelia didn't show up, we would have ambushed her, and now that she's on guard, as long as we don't expose it, the ambush will be handed over to the troops ahead." ”?
Back at the front of the army, Irelia's brow still furrowed. Although nothing had happened just now, she still felt that the beast was definitely under control.
Thinking about the tranquility of the road after the breach of the port, Irelia's nerves were already tense to a critical point. She didn't think that the higher-ups of Noxus would let her and her army get safe and easy outside the fortress.
It wasn't until she got out of the jungle that Irelia slackened a little. But only slightly, after passing through this jungle, it is not far from the central city of Noxus. I'm afraid the next road will be full of dangers!
As she watched her vanguard emerge from the jungle one by one, Irelia had begun to think about the possibility of encountering the Noxian army in her mind.
And at this moment, a rough and presumptuous laugh sounded from behind her.
"My dear Irelia, we meet again!"
Hearing this, Irelia's face changed drastically, and she instantly became solemn. She turned to see Darius and his troops walking toward her.
Seeing the few soldiers behind Darius, Irelia feared that there must be something strange in it.
However, in order to defeat the arrogant Darius, Irelia mocked, "You think that with your little strength, you can defeat my Ionian army? ”
Darius grimaced and glared at Irelia, clearly in the nick of a sore spot. Now that Noxus is being caught between the east and the west, coupled with internal turmoil, it is natural that the deployment of troops is not as good as before.
Dreyers suppressed his impulse and laughed: "Old friend, I don't know why you brought so many soldiers to my Noxus?" ”
Friends? In her heart, Irelia spurned the shamelessness of the lower Darius. She sneered, "I guess I don't say you should know too, right?" In Ionia, there is an old saying that if you do too much injustice, you will die! ”
Darius shook his head and said regretfully, "Sure enough, as Svein expected, there is no room for peace talks. ”
Irelia hesitated, but said, "Don't worry, our Ionian soldiers will not kill innocent civilians. Her voice was sonorous and powerful, and she was unconsciously convinced.
Darius shook his head, waved his hand and smiled, "Thank you, but I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about you!" ”
Hearing this, Irelia took a small step back and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Darius liked to see Irelia's expression, and he smiled playfully, "What do you say? ”
Suddenly, Irelia seemed to remember something. She hurried back to see that the jungle behind her was long gone. She and her vanguard are already trapped here!
Irelia gritted her teeth and said word by word, "De...... Rai ...... Adversity...... ......"
Good ice! Before she could rush to settle accounts with Darius, Irelia felt a cold breath spread from the soles of her feet.
At some point, the solid ground beneath her and her troops turned into a thin layer of ice.
Worst! In a panic, Irelia ordered: "All soldiers run out of the ice, hurry!" ”
When Irelia gave this order, she regretted it, she had forgotten that it was all Noxian troops outside!
At this time, Darius also ordered loudly: "The archers on the high mountain release their arrows, and the other soldiers will join me in killing all the Ionian soldiers who escaped from the ice." ”
"Capture Irelia alive so Ionia will accept peace talks, for Noxus!"
The soldiers behind Darius were completely ignited, and they followed Darius to besiege the Ionian soldiers who had fled from the ice in panic.
"For Noxus!"
"Whew"!
The first arrow feathers shot out from the distant mountain, and then the arrow feathers followed closely and shot into the ice together.
Irelia looked at the sky with a gloomy face, shocked. It's a rocket! Thinking about the ice again, Irelia's mood has fallen to the bottom.
Arrow feathers wrapped in flickering flames, obscuring the sky like a sea of fire.
The sky, which should have been blue, was bright red and bright under the reflection of the rocket rain.
The heat of the countless flames fused and superimposed, and even the Ionian soldiers on the ice could feel a trace of scorching heat.
Looking at the Darius and Noxian soldiers who were locked out of the ice, slaughtering the Ionian soldiers, Irelia's chest ached slightly.
I had to do something! Irelia stood up and was about to run out of the ice when a rocket pierced her left arm.
Irelia endured the pain of the flames, and pressed her left hand against the ice, extinguishing the fire.
The blood mist mixed with the dancing flames gradually dispersed on the ice, and the interweaving of blood and fire was like dancing with death under a bonfire in the night.
The smell of scorching blood mixed with the burning smell of the flames provoked Irelia to cough.
A ...... Two ...... Three ...... As arrows fell upon Irelia's body, she struggled to even hold the Sword of Inheritance.
Irelia's gaze also distorted in the flame-scorched space, and as her physical strength was severely overdrawn, her eyes were black and white.
Brother Zeroth......
Irelia felt a sudden emptiness under her feet, and her body involuntarily fell down.
Before she lost consciousness completely, Irelia took the heirloom sword in her arms, curled up and hugged her shoulders and fell.
My brother......
...... of Zelos
