The Glory of Noxus

Winter season.

The golden and brilliant morning rays fall down and penetrate the clouds, like carefully drawn beautiful lines, adding a layer of gorgeous feathers to the buildings halfway up the mountain.

As Huo Jixing walked on the bluestone streets, he felt for himself that the vast area of ​​the Noxian camp under his feet and the richness of the buildings were completely different from what he had imagined.

It is more like a built war fortress than a camp.

Especially after leaving the rest area, Huo Jixing clearly felt the strict order in the camp, which was a bit shocking.

Every 100 meters or so there will be sentry posts and Noxian soldiers on duty. You need to show a token before you can pass and go to the next area.

With DeWitt leading the way, the two of them reached their destination smoothly.

Noxian Camp, Southwest Area.

As soon as Huo Jixing set foot in the munitions department, he heard the roar of steel one after another, and the unbearable high temperature, which seemed to sweep through his body like a rolling heat wave.

"It's the Noxian Forge!"

Before Huo Jixing could ask, DeWitt spoke excitedly, his slightly burning eyes looking across the buildings in front of him and landing on the tall crimson furnace not far away.

Huo Jixing followed DeWitt's eyes and looked up.

In the distant field of vision, there was a raging flame burning and rising into the sky. A brilliant red fire light illuminated half of the sky.

At the same time, bursts of noisy and chaotic steel roars seemed to never stop, continuing to echo in their ears. Occasionally, there were also the roars and scolds of many Noxian craftsmen.

"What a beautiful sound!"

"It will continue to ring as long as the Empire continues to march."

Hearing DeWitt's whisper, Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, memories surged, and he recalled some information about the Noxus Empire that he had seen in his previous life.

Rumor has it that the forges of Noxus never cool down!

It has been producing swords, axes and armor in large quantities to provide a strong guarantee of strength for the Noxus Empire in its battles.

Noxian craftsmen pay more attention to the practical functions of weapons and armor than to their gorgeous appearance, so their designs often integrate more uses while ensuring sturdiness and applicability.

This also keeps Noxus' equipment ahead of other forces in Valoran.

"As expected of Noxus!"

Through the two reflecting each other, Huo Jixing clearly imagined the Noxus Empire's fanaticism and desire for war in his mind.

The Noxian forge in front of him alone continued to forge weapons and armor, not to mention the other military camps and forges throughout the empire.

Every day, every moment, a large number of countless weapons and armors are sent to every place of death in war through different transportation methods.

DeWitt patted Huo Jixing's shoulder and motioned for him to follow him, heading towards the building complex in front of him that was connected to the Noxus Forge.

The dark gray main building stands majestically, going up to six floors. The stone steps are polished and smooth, rough and dignified.

After climbing the stone steps, the thick and solid steel door opened outwards. DeWitt and Huo Jixing walked into the main building of the Military Supplies Department without being questioned.

Perhaps because of the early morning, there were not many people in the spacious hall, and only a few people were talking softly.

DeWitt chose a familiar passage, walked to the wooden counter, knocked on the table, handed over an iron token, and said softly: "Receive a set of equipment. This is the proof."

"Alec's team?!"

Behind the wooden counter, the quartermaster in red light armor put down his token and looked at Huo Jixing in confusion.

"Newcomer?"

"No." Huo Jixing looked at the dark-skinned quartermaster in front of him with frost on his temples, and explained: "The previous armor and weapons were too damaged and can no longer be used."

"Lucky guy!" the quartermaster said in surprise.

It is somewhat rare that the armor can survive even when it is scrapped.

"A set of standard armor and a standard long sword." The quartermaster turned to the back and shouted, then looked at DeWitt and started chatting.

"Is there a new mission?"

"Yes, I'll go to Freljord this time!" DeWitt said with a smile. The other party is an old friend of Sir Eric. As long as it doesn't involve specific information about the mission, you can chat freely.

Of course, except for Mr. Eric, no one else in the team has the right to know the specific information of this mission.

"Freljord?" The quartermaster raised his brows lightly, his smile faded, and his solemn gaze flickered between DeWitt and Huo Jixing.

At this moment, footsteps were heard from behind, and a Noxian apprentice with his upper body naked walked over holding a set of crimson armor and a sharp sword.

"Composite armor, standard long sword." The quartermaster pointed at the crimson armor and long sword in front of him and introduced.

Composite armor, as the name suggests, is composed of a variety of armors.

The armor in front of me is composed of dark red iron armor, mixed with hard leather armor and thick cotton armor. It is a robe that covers the whole body.

Don't underestimate the style of the robe armor. This is armor specially crafted by Noxian craftsmen to cope with the cold weather in Freljord. It has quite good defensive capabilities and cold resistance effects.

The standard long sword is a steel long sword that looks plain and unremarkable.

The length of the sword is about three feet, the width is about an inch, it is straight and has two edges, and the sword has a blood groove design, which is fully in line with the practical functionality of Noxian craftsmen.

Looking at Huo Jixing who was holding up the armor and sword, the quartermaster said softly: "I hope to see you come to collect the equipment next time!"

Huo Jixing paused, looked at the quartermaster in front of him, and nodded gently: "Thank you for your good wishes!"

Then he held the armor and sword, followed Dewitt who waved his arm backwards, and left the quartermaster's office.

Behind the wooden counter, the quartermaster watched Dewitt and Huo Jixing disappear at the door, and couldn't help muttering: "Damn Freljord, damn Winter's Claw!"

The increasingly fierce war situation during this period has swallowed up too many Noxian soldiers' fresh lives.

Many people he was familiar with, or comrades in arms, are forever buried in the cruel and ruthless northern frozen soil.

Back to the rest area

Huo Jixing stopped, holding the armor and weapons in his arms, looked at Dewitt, and said, "If you have anything to do, go and do it first. I can adapt to the new weapons and armor by myself."

He knew his own limitations. Although the centurion Eric asked Dewitt to take care of him, every soldier's time was precious during the war.

"Okay." Dewitt looked at Huo Jixing deeply and did not refuse: "I will live with the centurion and the others. You can come to me anytime if you have anything."

Huo Jixing smiled and nodded, watching Dewitt walk away slowly.

Then he quickly returned to his room along the route he had just memorized.

Creaky!

The wooden door closed, as if it isolated the outside noise, leaving only his own lonely world.

Huo Jixing put down the armor and weapons in his arms, and his expression suddenly became much more relaxed.

No matter how he behaved, he still had some resistance to the life here in his heart, at least he could not quickly integrate into it.

However, when he thought of the mission in Freljord in five days, an inexplicable sense of urgency surged in his heart, and some remaining bloody images flashed in his mind.

Huo Jixing's eyes moved slightly and fell on the composite armor in front of him.

He immediately took off his thick coat and put on the composite armor with some effort. It was a bit heavy, but within the tolerance range.

Because it was a standard armor, the size was not too big or too small, and it was still suitable. You can feel obvious comfort and warmth when wearing it.

Huo Jixing moved his body on the spot without any hindrance.

He picked up the steel sword casually, and the cold light refracted, reflecting his pale, resolute and handsome face.

Based on the fragmented images and muscle memory in his mind, he tried to swing the sword.

Woo! Woo! Woo!

The sharp sword blade cut through the air, making bursts of whimpering sounds, and as it swung, you can see that Huo Jixing's movements became more and more skilled and handy.

Click!

Inadvertently, the long sword slashed on the original wooden table, leaving a deep mark.

"This"

Huo Jixing looked at the table, then at the long sword in his hand, and stopped practicing helplessly.

With nothing to do, he stayed alone in the room for a while, sorting out his chaotic thoughts. When the time was almost up, he went out in composite armor and went to the place where he ate.

Although the Noxus Empire was short of resources due to the Rune War, the food provided to the soldiers was quite good. Generally, meat, bread and some vegetables were eaten together, which was enough to fill them up.

Of course, this was the standard of the regular war group on the front line, not including ordinary war groups.

After eating, Huo Jixing went to line up again, got some water, and brought it back to the room.

Speaking of water sources, because the military camp was built on the mountain, Huo Jixing had guessed that water resources would need to be controlled like in the ancient times in his previous life.

But unexpectedly, the war masons of Noxus built a water intake system on the spot according to the geographical environment to facilitate the use of the camp.

Ordinary soldiers like Huo Jixing only need to line up in advance to get water.

"War Mason!"

In the silent stone house, Huo Jixing lay on his back on the bed, his head resting on his arms, and many thoughts came to his mind.

He recalled the war mason in a brown robe that he had seen from afar, and it overlapped with the scene in his memory.

In his previous life, because he was getting older and older, he couldn't play games anymore, and often lost in the rankings. He would take advantage of his free time to look through the settings and background stories of the League of Legends universe.

This is why he is more familiar with the Valoran continent.

In the Noxus chapter, the war masons were introduced in detail.

They are resourceful scouts, engineers and warriors who design and supervise the construction of roads, bridges and fortifications. They can be said to be rare all-round talents, and they are also one of the most elite soldiers in the Noxus Empire.

In addition, other images and information began to appear in his mind, such as soldiers of the Trifarion Legion, and many famous Noxian heroes, etc.

Countless turbid and chaotic thoughts flooded into his mind like a tide, and coupled with the words about Freljord that the centurion Eric appealed to in the morning, he became more and more upset and anxious.

"What am I thinking about."

Huo Jixing suddenly came back to his senses, exhaled lightly, patted his face, and a helpless look appeared on his face.

Freljord, like a bloody curse, entangled in his heart, broke his peaceful life for more than a month, and completely disturbed his mind that had nowhere to rest.

He was a little restless, and his consciousness moved, calling out the data panel.

[Name: Huo Jixing]

[Essence: 0]

[Strength: 1.11]

[Constitution: 0.98]

[Agility: 1.03]

[Spirit: 2.11]

[Skills: Advanced Warrior, Wild Survival]

[Talent: None]

[The average attribute value of a normal adult male is 1]

"Physique has risen again." Huo Jixing saw that the physique in the data panel was close to the normal value, and his mood improved a lot, which meant that his body was gradually recovering to its peak.

And a healthy and strong body is one of the most important conditions for him to survive in the Valoran continent.

As if thinking of something, he hurriedly got up and went out again.
