The Glory of Noxus

Chapter 361 Swain’s Determined Black Rose’s Purpose

Tibbers' horrified voice was heard.

Annie looked at Huo Jixing in a panic, wondering what to do?
If in normal times, someone dares to snatch her bear, she will directly release her fire magic, summon Tibbers, and tear the enemy into pieces.

The current situation does make her a little embarrassed.

This noble man in a simple coat seemed to have a somewhat high status in the hearts of his father and Uncle Huo Jixing.

"It's okay. Your Majesty Swain just took a look and will return it to you later." Huo Jixing scratched Annie's nose and said with a smile.

"Oh, I see."

Anne agreed, loosened her grip on Tibbers' left hand, and allowed Swain to take Tibbers away.

"You crazy guy, who are you?" Taibok said angrily.

He smelled an extremely dangerous aura from the mortal in front of him.

Tybok was hanging in mid-air. Being stared at by Swain, his soul trembled and he wanted to discard this body.

Swain seemed not to hear Tybok's words and carefully observed the shadow bear toy in his hand.

It was an unspeakable restraint that made them unable to move, in the dark, and unable to exert their own power.

But after all, he was unwilling to give in and wanted to see if there was still room for struggle.

And severed the connection between Mordekaiser's soul and armor, plunging this once arrogant existence into eternal silence.

Swain looked at Tyberk with pitiful eyes, and returned him to Anne with a black cane.

Swain's eyes glowed crimson, observing whether Tybok would show any obvious mood swings.

Based on the information provided by Huo Jixing and the intelligence investigated by Leiser's garrison, the general outline of this incident gradually emerged in his mind.

Swain glanced at Tybok's black pupils and thought to himself.

When Taibok heard this, the stuffed toy's body instantly ignited with crimson flames, and the anger in his button eyes was undisguised.

In that cruel war, the coalition forces of many tribes contacted the black magicians who suddenly appeared and defeated the Iron Armor Wraith.

However, fate did not seem to have completely abandoned Tybok.

"No, with their plan, it will never be that simple, Taibok."

"But during the process of the magic experiment, Amorin accidentally escaped, and Tybok broke free from the seal."

"How is it possible? Even those black magicians want to covet the master's power?"

As a fire demon, he once followed Mordekaiser and witnessed the establishment of the Noxus Empire from scratch, from chaos to glory.

People are knives and servants, and I am fish and meat.

By chance, a trace of Tybok's demonic power miraculously escaped from the seal.

It was a nightmare he couldn't forget.

Swain nodded slowly, a cold look on his face.

As soon as he reappears, the Noxian Empire should worship him.

But now, he heard a bad premonition from Swain's words, as if the current Noxus Empire had undergone tremendous changes.

And he and Shadow Demon, as Mordekaiser's pets, also suffered heavy losses in this rebellion.

He lowered his eyes and muttered.

"But you failed!"

Tybok said nothing, but stared at Swain coldly.

Swain's words blew through his heart like a cold wind, making him feel uneasy.

They were defeated by the black magicians and turned into water droplets sealed in bottles.

Tybok couldn't help but recall the rebellion that took place in the ancient palace.

Tybok's eyes were a little frightened when he thought about the life inside the seal.

"The great Mordekaiser will eventually return to the physical realm."

"Can't sense it."

This is a demon far more powerful than myself!
And this guy actually imprisoned the devil in his body and could use the devil's power at will.

Tybok didn't want to answer, but under Swain's cold eyes, he could only suppress his inner reluctance.

"Black Rose is preparing to steal demonic power."

"It seems that you have been sealed by the Black Rose for too long and do not understand the current situation of the Noxus Empire."

"You are now in the Immortal Fortress, can you sense Mordekaiser's power?"

"Amorin was once an experimental subject in the Black Rose Magic Experiment. She has extraordinary talent for fire magic. She is probably the vessel of the flame demon Tybok."

Taibok didn't look happy because he was back in Anne's arms.

"The true purpose of the Black Rose is the iron-armored ghost Mordekaiser!"

Swain's eyes narrowed, and his expression fell solemnly on Taibok.
"What the Black Rose really covets is the power of the iron-armored ghost Mordekaiser."

He felt the long-lost freedom and the desire for power.

Tybok understood that this was his chance to break free from the seal and regain his freedom.

Swain did not look at Tybok again, but looked at Huo Jixing.

"Walk with me."

Huo Jixing put away his surprised expression.

He did not expect that the fire demon Tybok who was trapped in Tibbers's body would be Mordekaiser's pet.

"Iron-armored ghost!"

Huo Jixing whispered softly, leading Annie to the side hall, following Swain's footsteps.

The so-called side hall is just a slightly small living room that rarely receives people.

The silence and emptiness in the room surprised Huo Jixing. There was almost no furniture around, except for an ancient painting hanging on the wall.

Huo Jixing's eyes naturally fell on the scroll.

On the scroll, the traces of time are clearly visible. Although the colors are somewhat mottled, the deep and ancient atmosphere can still be felt.

The content of the scroll shows an armored giant fighting. He defeated the desperate mortal warriors with a heavy and brutal war hammer.

Beside the giant, there are two ferocious and powerful monsters.

One end is like a black shadow, with a strong body and agile movements, as if it can shuttle freely in the darkness.

On the other end was a flame. Its body was wrapped in blazing fire, exuding a fiery aura, and every roar seemed to ignite the battlefield.

Huo Jixing stood in front of the scroll, staring at the painting and feeling familiar.

He remembered that he had seen a similar scene on the stone carvings in the imperial treasure house.

"This is a scroll preserved by the empire. The character in it is none other than the ancient king Iron-Armored Wraith Mordekaiser."

Swain touched the edge of the ancient scroll and murmured softly.

"And just through the conversation with Tyback, I completely understood the true purpose of the black rose magic experiment."

He turned around, tilted his chin, and his eyes didn't know where to land.

"Do you remember the wanted object I told you before?"

Huo Jixing nodded slightly, remembering that he had seen the wanted portrait before and also seen it at the gate of the capital.

"Iron Girl Riel, this is the name Black Rose gave her." Swain said.

"She has almost the same identity as Amorin. She is an experimental subject who escaped from the black rose magic experiment."

"Her extraordinary ability is very special and unique. It is magic that has never been seen in hundreds of years -"

"The power to manipulate metal!"

When Huo Jixing heard this, his pupils tightened, and he instantly understood the importance of Rui Er's experiment with black rose magic.

Metal, armor.

This is probably the most extraordinary ability for the Iron-armored Wraith Mordekaiser.

"It seems you understand."

Swain tapped his black cane with his fingers, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

"But because of Black Rose's magic experiment, Riel is very hostile to the empire."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I arranged for the soldiers of the Leiser Guard Corps to contact Ruier secretly, hoping to get good news."

Swain stared at the ancient scroll in front of him, his eyes firm and cold.

He seemed to read the cruelty of the past and the coming storm from his delicate and mottled brushstrokes.

"Black Rose wants to extract the power from that armor. I will never allow such a thing to happen."

According to Imperial records, Mordekaiser's power is obsessed with slaughter and destruction.

His once brutal conquests almost wiped out a whole generation of Noxian Empire into the dust of history.

"With your power, you still can't stop those black magicians." Tybok in Annie's arms said quietly.

He admitted that the strength of Swain and Huo Jixing was terrifying, enough to scare most people away.

But the dark magicians hiding in the dark once defeated Mordekaiser at his peak and two powerful demons including him.

"I deeply understand that decisions will always have consequences." Swain did not pay attention to Tibbers' words.

"But if you don't do it, who can know the real result."

Taibok stopped talking, seemed to put away his consciousness, and returned to the state of a shadow bear toy.

Swain stepped out of the side hall and returned to the audience hall. He looked at Huo Jixing curiously, with appreciation on his face.

Although he had some understanding of Huo Jixing's strength, he really didn't expect that he could defeat Evelin, the Embrace of Pain.

"Your strength has improved again."

Huo Jixing did not deny it, showing a humble and confident smile.

He talked about the fierce battle that took place in Snow Ridge Town, and mentioned the help that the things in the Empire's treasury brought to him.

After listening, Swain nodded slightly and said that someone had already gone to deal with the tragic scene left by Evelin.

Huo Jixing said there was no need to worry.

He already knew in his heart that Huo Jixing's growth was a good thing for the empire.

After chatting for a while, Huo Jixing stood up, said goodbye to Swain, and then left the audience hall with Annie.

night.

In the silent bedroom.

Huo Jixing sat upright on the bed, opened the data panel, and focused on his skills and talents.

"During the previous battle, I seemed to have transformed into a Suzaku?"

He recalled the scene during the battle with Evelin, the state in which he fought with all his strength at the last moment.

At that time, in order to burn the fire of Nanli to the maximum, he poured into the energy of Donghua Yimu, and unconsciously controlled Nanli Suzaku.

It was also that blow that cut off a small section of Evelin's arm.

"Could it be the combination of the power of the stars and the path of skills that pushed me to enter a special state?"

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered and he began to think secretly.

With the blessing of many star talents, his skills have gone a long way in conquering the masters.

"You can try it."

He made a decision and would use this as one of his training directions to try.
