LOL: Summoner of Goddess Jana

Chapter 373 Swain's Life

The empire is just a tool of the black rose, and the emperor is just a puppet of the enchantress.

If these are true, then "for Noxus", "for Darkwill", these creeds that she has kept in her heart like the bible since she was a child, wouldn't they all become a joke?
Katrina was confused.

What is she fighting for?for.
Katerina remembered what LeBlanc had said to her earlier—it turned out that all the glory of the empire was fake, and she was just fighting for her family's privileges.

However, since she was educated to give her life for the empire at any time, would she really care about such things?
"."

"Kana?" Suddenly, Galen whispered her name.

"Huh?" Katerina snapped back to her senses.

"Are you okay?" Galen looked at her thoughtfully, and Swain not far away.

"It's okay." Katerina took a deep breath, and her complexion returned to normal in an instant: "I just watched the movie, and I'm just a little curious about him."

"Oh." Galen didn't ask further.

At this time, the movie screen happened to be staged, Swain followed the clues of his parents to wipe out the hidden forces of Black Rose, and beheaded the mastermind "Ms. Pale" for public display.

"The black rose, was it eradicated by Swain that year?" Katerina hoped so.

But things obviously won't be that simple.

Sure enough, shortly after the Pale Lady was beheaded by Swain, another Pale Lady quietly appeared in the depths of the palace of the Immortal Fortress.

The so-called "Pale Lady" is just one of LeBlanc's many avatars.

LeBlanc has many clones like this. At the same time, various countries in the world are secretly planning various conspiracies.

Back then, Swain thought he had killed the Pale Lady, but he never did.

Even, the plan to eliminate LeBlanc this time was formulated by LeBlanc from the very beginning.

The black rose helped Darkwill win the throne, but he refused to include the counselors handpicked by the black rose into the parliament.So LeBlanc took the extreme measures necessary.

She engineered Swain into discovering the secret society's involvement, and LeBlanc then had herself and several other top conspirators executed.

In the end, when Darkwill thought that the black rose had been completely wiped out by Swain, he completely relaxed his vigilance.
LeBlanc appeared again.

She deceived Darkwill's trust, poisoned his mind with spells, and manipulated his spirit.

Darkwill, the wise king of the generation, had already "died" at that time.

"This" Katerina's three views have been greatly impacted.

The truth is even crueler than rumors.Darkwill is not just a puppet, but a literal puppet doll!
In the early stage of the film, Darkwell is wise, powerful and ambitious. He is undoubtedly the wise king that Katerina looks forward to and is willing to dedicate her loyalty to.

But such an emperor, Black Rose couldn't tolerate it.

"Is this true?" Katerina couldn't help casting her gaze at Swain again, looking for answers from his face.

And this time.
The expression on Swain's face was uncontrollable shock.

It seemed that he, like Swain in the movie, had been kept in the dark for decades, and had no idea what happened to Darkwill, who was also his friend and king.

"." Katerina's heart became more and more heavy.

Even the wise general Swain was tricked by the black rose.

And the black rose can't accommodate a wise king, can it accommodate a loyal minister like Swain?

Sure enough, soon.
After Darkwell was manipulated in the movie, Swain was promoted to a military position soon after.

Although this is a kind of promotion, but leading troops to fight outside all year round means that he is far away from the capital, the center and the emperor.

Sweeney had been doing government affairs work before, and it was difficult for him to make contributions in the army because of his inexperience.If there were no accidents, he might not be able to return to the Immortal Fortress a few times in his life, nor would he see Darkwell.

However, what I didn't expect was that Swain was actually a genius with both civil and military skills. His talent and talent in military affairs were even more amazing than his performance in government affairs.

On the southern battlefield, he repeatedly defeated the local warlords of Shurima in away battles, and opened up a vast southern border for the empire.

On the Western Front, he defeated his old enemy, the Demacians.Even a generation of famous generals like Jarvan III and Peter Crownguard fell to pieces in his hands.

Swain used his brilliant record to make Black Rose think that he was an extremely useful tool, and he was reluctant to get rid of him.

"Ahem." Galen had a delicate expression.

Seeing my father and my own king being hanged and beaten in the movie, this movie-watching experience is really not good.

However, as a knight, Galen still sincerely admires this terrifying opponent from the perspective of military and character.

So what is the final outcome of such a pillar of the empire and a peerless general?

The movie continues.

And gradually come to an end.

Time came a few years ago, the Immortal Bastion.

It was still the palace back then, and the two parties in the conversation were still Swain and Darkwell.

But at this moment, Swain is no longer young, and Darkwill is no longer the original Darkwill.

"Your Majesty!" Swain tried hard to advise: "Please reconsider seriously and give up the idea of ​​attacking Ionia."

"What?" Darkwill only looked at him indifferently: "Are you speaking for those Ionians?"

"I'm speaking for the empire, Your Majesty." Swain did not back down: "Now that the empire has fought on three fronts, if we attack that nascent land in an all-round way, I'm afraid it will only plunge the army into an endless quagmire of war."

"Everyone in the empire will pay a heavy price for this, and the only ones who can benefit are those arms dealers, military supply merchants, and the nobles behind them."

"Enough!" Darkwill interrupted him coldly: "Ionia doesn't even have a single army, but the Empire has millions of troops."

"100 million to 0, the advantage is mine!"

Swain wanted to persuade again: "But."

Darkwill didn't give him a chance to speak at all: "Swain, don't forget who gave you your status today."

"What? You have so many 'students' now that you dare not even listen to my orders?"

This is a heavy word.

Generally, when the emperor said such words to the general face to face, it meant that the general was about to die.

"." Swain closed his mouth wisely.

He stopped talking, just looked out the window silently.

The sky outside the window is still so dark, and the slums are still full of abscesses.It's been decades and it hasn't changed.

"What are you looking at?" Darkwill frowned dissatisfied.

"I" Swain's expression darkened: "I'm looking at the sky, Your Majesty."

The movie comes to the last paragraph.

Ionia, Presidian.

When the audience sees this scene, they can basically guess what famous scene they will see next.

Veteran Swain was defeated by a 14-year-old girl for committing a violation of the Presidian territory.

And Swain's humiliating defeat later became the hottest topic in Runeterra in the past two years.In the end, his image changed from a pillar of the empire and a famous general of a generation to a living joke.

It's like meeting Zhang Liao's Sun Shiwan, no matter how brilliant he was in the past. Such a defeat will make people chatter for a lifetime.

So in the impression of the audience in the past, Swain has always been a buffoon.

But this time, what they replaced was Swain's perspective.

"Marshal Swain." The bad news continued to come: "The rebel army is violently attacking our frontal defense line. Our army's flanks have also been completely surrounded by their reinforcements!"

"Hold on, let everyone hold on for a while longer." In the headquarters, Swain sat at the table with a livid face.

The staff officers surrounded him nervously, not daring to show their air.

It turned out that the Battle of Presidium was not a defeat in the first place.

Swain's army lured the enemy into the so-called trap as planned, and prepared to cooperate with the friendly army to create a beautiful "center blossom".

But the support promised by the friendly army never appeared from the beginning to the end.

"Trust me, as long as the other warbands attack as promised, everything will be fine." The shouts of killing had already approached the army tent, but Swain was still working hard to boost morale.

But it didn't work at all.

"Teacher, they." The officers swallowed nervously: "They claimed that they did not have enough strength to launch an attack. The attack on Presidio did not happen."

Swain: "."

Everyone could see the anger on his face, but he clenched his fists tightly, trying not to erupt.

"Send them a message again." The once-proud leader of the empire showed a humble and humble demeanor at this time: "Tell those battle group leaders—"

"For the sake of the empire, give brother a hand, brother a hand!"

His voice was successfully transmitted through the spell communication.

But no one responded to him.

Those support battle groups that should have appeared here, at this moment, seemed to have evaporated from the world, and disappeared in the Navoli battlefield.

And this time.
"Ionia, keep your spirit high!" The impassioned shouts of the Ionia people had already reached Swain's ears.

"." Swain sighed.

The wise general stood up, and with his weak arm, picked up the saber that he seldom used personally.

"Empire, can't win this battle."

"We're doomed."

Saying that, Swain walked out of the tent and faced the flying knife that pierced through the air.

　The second is later.
