Irelia's heart sank.

She showed a hesitant expression in the face of Jeno's gaze, she was weighing the pros and cons of doing so, and her eyebrows fell into a deep tangle.

Her gaze swept over the heckling faces, and she knew that it was a very dangerous task to be sent to Talu Bay to stop the landing of the Norwegians, and it was basically a matter of life and death.

She couldn't make a decision right away, she didn't know if the other party deserved such a severe punishment, just because she said a few more words, would it seem too partiality to outsiders and chill the hearts of these brothers and sisters? It's also important to be angry with Jeno, if she treats him badly and makes Ionia lose a big help, then she will not be able to live with it for the rest of her life.

She looked around and suddenly found that there were several innocent old people standing behind her, and if Jeno hadn't stopped the stones, it would probably have caused a tragedy.

This made her heart even more tangled, and she could feel that everyone's eyes were on her, waiting for her to make a decision.

"I think Jeno is doing a good thing, Irelia, and it's time for you to show what a leader should be."

Just as Irelia hesitated, a voice reached her ears.

She looked at the crowd that had parted, the Apocalypse Karma had come to her surrounded by monks, and Kenan had unwittingly returned to Akali's side.

"Master Saint." Irelia hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, and the crowd followed suit.

"Ionia needs a leader who can convince the people, and you must be fair and punish if you are wrong."

Karma held out her finger and tapped Irelia's forehead, since she was ruthless outside the battlefield, Karma decided to be the villain herself.

"So... Those who make a move, rush to Taluwan overnight to report. ”

Only the man who threw the stone at Jeno was punished, and the other hecklers remained silent for fear of being implicated.

The atmosphere became very heavy, and the middle-aged man couldn't stand the oppression and choked up and said, "You showed us the way......"

"You're too fanatical and you're going too far. We should seek peace in the struggle, not lose ourselves in the war. She said.

Irelia saw the man raise his dagger in a desperate struggle, and she couldn't stand it anymore.

"Don't be stupid, it's better to die on the battlefield than here, fight for Ionia." As she spoke, she stepped into the crowd and pressed down the dagger in his hand with one hand and placed the other hand on the man's shoulder as a sign of comfort: "I'm sorry for making such a verdict, we won't let your efforts be in vain." ”

The man finally put down his dagger, put the hat on his head that had been placed behind him, and left the camp and headed south.

No one was holding him in custody, and no one knew if he would become a deserter, but Irelia always felt that she and this man would not be meeting each other, and that he would soon be laid to rest with the spirits of Ionia.

The bonfire was still burning, but the crowd had dispersed.

After Karma came forward to vouch for it, Jeno's existence had been recognized, which was the result Irelia wanted at first, but now she couldn't be happier.

Even after some washing, she still couldn't calm down. So she had no choice but to take off her white robe and change into a battle suit, and carried the heirloom blade to Jeno's camp.

The candle flame reflected the figure on the tent, and Irelia saw more than one figure, and she hesitated to go inside.

"Come in, don't stand stupidly outside."

It wasn't until she heard Jeno's voice coming from inside that she reached out and lifted the tent and walked in.

After seeing where several figures belonged, Irelia was surprised to find many familiar faces gathered in the small tent, which made her feel like she had been left out.

"So everyone is here, even the Holy Master."

Seeing Karma, Irelia began to feel even more apprehensive, and when Karma nodded to her, she found a place to sit down near the corner.

"I'm waiting for you, let Akali look for you after the meeting, but you won't be in the old mansion of the Zan family." Jeno motioned for Irelia to sit in the empty seat between him and Karma, which had been specially reserved for her, as they had something very important to discuss.

"I'm sorry." Irelia said guiltily. I don't know if I'm apologizing for what happened before, or I'm sorry for making people easy to find, maybe both.

"Just let those things pass, it's nothing compared to the next problems we face. Now let's talk about how to win this war. ”

Jeno pressed his hand to the ground, injected magic and directly shaped a delicate sand table out of crystals, condensing the map of Ionia into square inches, and on top of the chess pieces represented by everyone present, most of them were placed on top of the Precidian.

Irelia saw her own chess piece in the sandbox, a crystal figure with a blade hovering over her shoulders, very expressive.

She was surprised, and immediately realized that she couldn't care about anything else, and then she entered the state.

"The last time I came to Presidium, I found that the fortifications here were very weak, and I didn't know how to resist the 100,000-strong army of Noxus with only one fence."

As soon as Jeno clenched his fist, all the crystals in the area southwest of Precidian on the sand table began to emit a faint black gas, and most of the area west of Philo, Barou'e, and Navoli were occupied by Noxus.

The other provinces, because of their strategic position, were not so important and were not taken care of by Noxus, and only a small number of troops were stationed there.

The local guerrillas tried to resist, but were either slaughtered or surrendered.

"100,000 ......" Hearing Jeno's words, Irelia's lips trembled, an army of 100,000 is an unimaginable concept for an archipelago country like Ionia, and the others also gasped.

But the 100,000 army was only an advance force for Noxus, and the transport ships were still going back and forth between the two places, and the number of Noxian soldiers setting foot in Ionia would only increase.

If Noxus had enough ships, that number could easily be doubled.

"Irelia, last time Svein took a few soldiers to occupy Presidian, you have faced him directly, you should know the most." Jeno asked.

"Less than two thousand ......," Irelia replied in a deep voice.

"Less than two thousand soldiers were able to storm Plessidon and capture the people, and this warband is still a mix of veterans from all remote corners of the Empire, haven't you made any changes since the Battle of Standing? Why, ten years later, is there still only a weak fence outside the Precidian? Do you think of yourself as a captive animal? ”

PS: Tomorrow to resume the update. It's really hard to live without this chapter, and I don't know how to write it if I can't copy the book review. (Dog's Head Saves Life)
