Seeing Anne smile sweetly at herself, the tavernkeeper was as excited as if he had drunk honey, and he had no resistance to the cute child, so he immediately went to prepare a fruit bowl and sent it over.

Annie's voice once again attracted everyone's attention, and Master Yi took out the borrowed bottle of the Fountain of Life from his bosom and returned it to Jeno almost intact, and by the way, he took advantage of the effort to thank everyone and brought up the topic that everyone wanted to know.

"Little brother Jeno, thank you for saving Goku a few times. In addition, what are you going to do with this little Noxian girl, if you don't handle it well, I'm afraid it will be a disaster. ”

"I haven't thought about it for the time being, she doesn't have a home, so she will stay in Precidian and coax her first." Jeno has no idea of letting Anne help fight the war for the time being, Anne is as unstable as the black powder of Noxus, and needs more guidance and discipline.

"The little girl has good talents, you can take her as an apprentice." Yasuo took a sip and said to Jeno.

"Accept apprentices?" Jeno raised an eyebrow.

"Why not?" Yasuo also raised his eyebrows: "You see that Master Yi accepted a Vastaya as an apprentice, and I accepted a Shurima as an apprentice, can't you also accept one?" If you're worried that she's Noxian, there's a better example. ”

"You say Kabe and Kai Yin?" Jeno shook his head: "I don't mind Anne's origins, but I mind that she is moody and uncontrollable. ”

"Speaking of uncontrollable, could it be more uncontrollable than Taliyah's earth magic? It's not like nothing. The city wall she built is also a little interesting. ”

Instead of following Yasuo, who was not doing her job, Taliyah was racing against time to strengthen the walls, and she would not stop as long as the army did not reach the city.

"No, it's not a problem, it's her character." Jeno could only smile bitterly, was he worried about Annie's magic? What worries him is Anne's nature!

Like Sindra as a child, Anne's emotional out-of-control can have terrible consequences, not as severe as Sindra's, but it will cause a lot of casualties both on the battlefield and in the city.

"She's still young, if you give more guidance, her personality can be corrected." Yasuo looked at Anne, who sat quietly on the stool holding the porcelain pot and drinking milk, the corners of her mouth were stained with white milk, and she didn't look like that kind of naughty child.

Jeno pouted, Yasuo didn't see the cruelty of Anne when she ordered Tibbs to kill, which is why she made it so simple.

"Jeno doesn't want to care about Annie, so I'll do it."

And at this moment, a word that no one expected came out of the mouth of a man who no one had ever counted on.

Sindra clutched her arms, her long hair was windless, and a pair of dark eyes swept over the wine table, causing the atmosphere to freeze instantly, and Anne hiccuped in fright.

"Sindra, what are you making a fuss about, even if you want to be someone else, you're not happy." Jeno retorted mercilessly.

Sindra herself is a person with a bad mind, how can she teach the mentally imperfect Anne? The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, and the witch can only teach a little devil.

Besides, Anne clearly hated Sindra very much, and Jeno didn't want to be caught in the middle and be an angry translator.

"Am I not qualified to be?" Sindra raised her eyebrows, and the wine in the entire tavern began to tremble.

"Of course, you are the strongest dark mage in Ionia, and you are definitely qualified to be Anne's teacher. But you have to learn Noxian Mandarin from me first, and then bring up Anne's affection for you, and then tell me this. ”

"I'm ......" Hearing such trouble, Sindra was immediately discouraged.

The cost of time is too great, it is better to wait for Jano to teach Anne to speak the Ionian dialect little by little, and then she will sit back and enjoy it.

She was hot for three minutes, and was touched by Annie's experience, and for a while there was a flood of maternal love, and Jeno still didn't know how to cure it.

"Take your time, and when the battle is over, you'll have plenty of time to spend with Anne. Noxus has lost a small warband, and they will certainly not rest on their laurels, and I feel that the day of the decisive battle is very close. ”

Jeno's words brought an oppressive atmosphere, and Yasuo picked up the flask and blew down the whole bottle, hoping that Ionia's future would be bleak.

Tons of tons of tons -

……

"Are the Ionians planning to cower in the walls?"

The symbol of imperial might, Darius, the Hand of Noxus, was standing on a hillside, looking in the direction of Precidian with a pair of fierce eyes, a shocking scar covering his left eye, like a fierce black wolf.

When he heard of the fall of Corrie's legion, he ordered the whole army to prepare for battle, but now, a day later, the Ionians had no intention of leaving the city to fight, and the drawbridges on the walls still tightly covered the gates.

The tall walls blocked Darius's ambitions, protecting Ionia's heart like an impenetrable goggle.

Darius no longer thought of leading his army into Presidium and announcing that Noxus had taken the land by planting the red flag of Noxus on the walls.

Although the entire territory of Ionia has been largely controlled by Noxus except for Presidium, and the land occupied by the soldiers is enough to feed most of Noxus, as long as this last pure land is not completely destroyed and conquered, this war will not be over.

Tuk Tuk ......

A woman with long brown hair rode to Darius's side, tapped the horse's flank with the spur of her heel, and rode around the field before reining the horse and turning over and dismounting.

The man was Darius's scout, Tamara, a stonemason of war.

After discovering that the walls of Presidium had risen from the ground, and the magnificent barrier separating the Southwest Plains, Darius ordered her to scout the magical defenses.

"There was a mage stationed on the city wall guarding the enemy, I couldn't get too close, I used my crossbow to shoot the arrow tied to the rope at the city wall, but I couldn't even nail the arrow, in terms of hardness, I'm afraid it was not much worse than the black stone wall of the immortal fortress. The drawbridge to the west has never been lowered, and the east gate has been opened once to welcome the Vastayas, and I'm sorry I can't disguise myself as a Vastaya to sneak in. Moreover, the Ionians in the city never go out to hunt and gather, and it seems that the resources in the city are so abundant that they can stay in the city forever......"

As a war stonemason, Tamara excelled in gathering intelligence, and she reported her findings to Darius in detail, providing the most powerful intelligence support for Noxus' army to conquer Precidian.

"If the enemy's resources are abundant enough, then the siege is only a drain on our blood and lives, and we must find a way to push this wall to make the enemy understand that they are nothing more than lambs living in a cage to the slaughter."

The sun was rising, and Darius saw the sun shining in Precidian, and the enemy had not yet reached a dark hour.

"Do you want to divide your forces and attack the west? The eastern wall is the least guarded, and it is better to break through. ”

Because of her close relationship with Draven, Tamara has a certain say even as a war mason. She had no qualms about sharing his thoughts with Darius, for the Grand General valued his own brother Draven.

"Corrie's experience has taught us that this is not feasible, and the northeast of Presidon is surrounded by Winter Mountain, which is covered with dense forests, and it is easy for the enemy to ambush us."

Darius patiently explained that he was resourceful and was by no means a reckless man who only knew how to charge, and his younger brother was, so Draven was left in the Immortal Fortress.

"The water source of Presidon comes from only one direction, and that is the snow water of the Winter Mountains, and we can build a dam to block the flow of water or simply poison the water so that they don't have water to drink."

Tamara immediately came up with another way, inspired by the military merit system, everyone wanted to climb higher, otherwise why would she pursue such a high-risk profession as a war mason. And she knew that Darius had already sat in the highest positions, and he would definitely not compete with her for military merit.

"This method has long been rejected by me, the whole Navoli plain is nourished by the snow water of the winter mountains, and there is the will of nature to help them purify the water, if we poison it, it will be harmed by nature. Moreover, it rains here for three days, and there are lakes and underground water in the Preciden, so we are not afraid of cutting off their water sources. ”

After the plan was rejected again, Darius stared at the tall walls of Precidian, and Tamara was lost in thought, trying to find a better plan, but the Ionians had the advantage of a single wall, and the game was not so easy to break.

As she pondered, a shrill chirp rang from the sky, and she looked up to see a raven perched on Darius' shoulder.

The crow is nothing special at first glance, but the sharp-eyed Tamara immediately notices the strangeness of the crow with just one glance.

The crow was pitch black, but it had three bloodshot eyes on the left and right sides of its head, which was extremely strange.

Taliyah looked at the crow's bloody and strange eyes, and immediately had a feeling that the secret had been seen through.

Tamara, who had been with Darius well-informed, recognized this as the Three-Eyed Raven raised by the Great Commander of Svein, and there were rumors in the Immortal Fortress that Svein had made a pact with the demons, and now the Three-Eyed Raven, which had spread to various parts of the Imperial Army, had become a ubiquitous symbol of Svein.

Darius grimaced, reaching out and pulling a tiny wax-impregnated scroll from the crow's feet.

Due to the ubiquitous Ionian spirits, the primitive way of transmitting information with carrier pigeons could not be used, and the information transmitted by carrier pigeons would eventually fall into the hands of the Ionians inexplicably, which was a phenomenon that was verified by Aino during the First World War. At that time, Svein did not sign a contract with the demons, and could not control the ubiquitous three-eyed crow, and his control over the overall situation was much weaker than now.

So this time Noxus used the Three-Eyed Raven as a means of delivering information, and they only listened to Svein's orders, and although he was far away in the Immortal Fortress, the entire battle situation was under his supervision.

The presence of the Three-Eyed Raven is convenient for Darius, and Jeno will use the Grand Barrier to separate the Noxus army, so Darius will naturally let the Three-Eyed Raven fly through the Grand Barrier to get in touch with the fleet.

The Three-Eyed Raven was about the size of the largest raven in the crow family, and the scroll it could carry was so small that when Darius unfolded it, the scroll could only fill the palm of his hand.

After a quick reading of the contents, he rolled the scroll and put it to the raven's mouth, and the three-eyed raven immediately swallowed the scroll from between his fingers, and then flew to the west with a chirp.

The raven flapped its wings and flew away, and a few pitch-black crow feathers landed on Tamara's shoulder, where she dusted them off and asked Darius.

"General, how's the situation with the Southern Fleet?"

"The admirals were killed in the Ionian traps, and nearly two thousand soldiers were lost, and General Wood took his place for the time being, and the army was now ready in Talu Bay. You don't need to scout around the walls anymore, the Three-Eyed Raven has already told me about the general defenses in the city. ”

Since the Great Barrier cut off the two armies, Darius had the Three-Eyed Raven go back and forth between the two places to exchange information, and then set a time to attack the city at the same time. At the same time, the Three-Eyed Raven would hover over Precidian and scout the city's defenses, something Tamara could not do.

"That's... When is the siege timed? "Being robbed of her job by a crow, Tamara is still a little unconvinced.

"Wood has set the siege for tomorrow morning, just in time for our soldiers to bled the enemy's heart." Darius's right hand clenched suddenly, and the huge battle axe was as heavy as a weight in his hand, and it could also be used as a bloodletting knife.

"......" Tamara didn't say anything, once the war began, the war stonemason would have to retreat to the rear, and her opportunity to make a career would stop there.

Darius put his tomahawk behind him, his black hair stood on end, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes:

"Go back and put the army in order, we need to put up a large enough battle on the west side to attract the enemy's main guards, help Wood relieve the pressure, and then Wood's side will be responsible for breaking through the walls and opening the gates in the city to meet us."

Darius' self-confidence held Tamara at bay, and as she watched his back fade away, she realized that the opportunity to make a difference was rapidly fading away from her.

After a fierce battle of ideas, Tamara decides to do what she does best, even if it's very risky, and the slightest mistake will lead to death in a foreign land.

Having come here, she can't just miss the opportunity to become famous, her ambition doesn't allow her to be content with being an obscure war stonemason who needs to hide in the shadows forever.

So she rolled over and got on her horse, the spur of her heel tapped the horse's flank, and she raised her whip to catch up with Darius.

"General, I have another plan that can definitely help you."
