The Glory of Noxus

A month later.

Blood Cliff, Mauuli Castle.

Jalal walked along the winding passage and came to the silver-white training room.

As soon as he stepped into the giant steel door, he frowned and realized that the temperature in the air was much higher than outside, and even had the illusion of being scorching.

"It seems more powerful than before?" Jalal thought to himself.

The last few times he came here, he would always notice that Huo Jixing's aura was getting stronger again.

dong dong!dong dong!

Jalal knocked on the steel door.

After waiting for a while.

The giant steel door opened from the inside, and a wave of red hot air hit his face, making his clothes flutter.

Jalal looked at the shirtless Huo Jixing in front of him.

The body is high and the red hard muscles are like lava, bringing a shocking feeling.

Following Huo Jixing's pace, a terrible sense of oppression filled his heart, and the air around him was slightly distorted.

Jalal was shocked inside.

Such a body is too terrifying, completely beyond the physical boundaries between ordinary people and extraordinary beings.

He had already made a guess.

Perhaps Huo Jixing has stepped into the realm of heroes, otherwise he would not have won the appreciation of Lord Swain and Lord Riven.

"What's matter?"

Huo Jixing looked at the absent-minded Jalal and asked.

In recent times, the changes made to him by [Star Spirit Suzaku Stance] have gradually slowed down.

If you still want to make progress, you can only rely on the hard work of the water mill.

"The Commander-in-Chief wants to see you." Jalal replied softly, using honorifics.

"Huh?" Huo Jixing's face turned doubtful when he heard this.

"Has the Commander arrived at the Blood Cliff?"

Since defeating Vladimir's half-finished body, Huo Jixing has cooperated with Jalal to clean the inside of Blood Cliff several times. Basically, there is no influence of the Scarlet Secret Society.

"No."

Jalal shook his head slightly and walked out of the training room without explaining.

"Come with me."

Huo Jixing put on a coat and followed Jalal's footsteps to a secret darkroom in the castle.

The darkroom in front of us shows that it was not established for a long time.

The walls are made of solid rock and are a bit rough, but the atmosphere is full of mystery.

The door of the darkroom is a huge iron door with a bloody gem inlaid on the door. When the dim light passes through the gem, it will reflect a strange light.

Huo Jixing looked at Jalal in confusion and saw him pointing to the darkroom, gesturing for him to enter.

Huo Jixing then pushed open the iron door and entered the darkroom.

The space inside the darkroom is tall and wide. Mysterious symbols are engraved on the walls, and the air is filled with a strange and mysterious atmosphere, which seems to hide endless secrets.

While he waited.

The mysterious symbols on the wall lit up, and the red aura gradually rose.

Buzz!Buzz!

In an instant.

The surging rune energy appeared in the secret room, like a brush in the hand of a painter, outlining the bloody red pattern one stroke at a time.

Click!

It's like eyes opening.

In Huo Jixing's field of vision, a huge red eye with a black cross in the middle appeared out of thin air.

【Imperial Vision】!

The name of Swain's skill from his previous life suddenly appeared in Huo Jixing's heart.

The sound that followed confirmed him in his heart.

"Long time no see, Star!"

"I've met the Commander-in-Chief."

Huo Jixing heard the sound and bowed to his eyes, secretly amazed in his heart.

What a practical and terrifying ability!

The current location of Blood Cliff is in the center of the east, and the capital of Noxus is in the hinterland of the empire.

With the help of [Imperial Vision], Swain crossed the endless spatial distance and descended on the blood cliff.

"The mission was completed well, and your reward is on the way."

Swain's voice echoed in the dark room through the huge red eyes.

"And your new mission."

Huo Jixing raised his brows, and the red golden light filled his eyes, but it was impossible to see through the red eyes at all.

Then he chuckled, a rare joke.

"Haha, I hope I won't encounter a powerful opponent like Vladimir again."

"No, it has been arranged this time."

Swain's voice continued to sound, but I don't know if it was due to the transmission through his eyes, but no emotion could be heard.

Huo Jixing remained respectful and spoke softly: "Follow your will."

After saying that, he stepped out of the secret room.

After a while.

The huge eyes floating above the darkroom did not disappear because of Huo Jixing's departure.

It seemed to blink slightly, reflecting Swain far away in the capital.

Sitting in the audience hall, Swain lowered his eyes and dealt with the affairs before him, with a hint of worry in his dark eyes.

Based on the recent various intelligence from the Reese Guard Corps and the Assassin Guild.

Black Rose seems to be taking action again, and the specific reason is very mysterious.

He had to secretly arrange for Talon and Riven to conduct a secret investigation.

In addition, through intelligence analysis, Swain saw darkness spreading and the situation grim not only in the Noxus Empire.

In other parts of the Valoran continent, there are also many dark fogs.

the next day.

Huo Jixing had just gotten up and was enjoying breakfast.

Jalal pushed the door open and came in, handing him a black brocade box with the empire's logo, saying it was a reward from the empire's high command.

He originally wanted to persuade Jalal to stay for dinner, but this guy was a little busy recently, so he said goodbye in a hurry and left.

Huo Jixing swallowed the white bread in his mouth, his eyes fell on the black brocade box, and he opened it casually.

The brocade box was opened, and the blazing high temperature suddenly emerged, baking the room.

"This is."

Huo Jixing lowered his eyes and saw a gem that seemed to be burning lying quietly in the black brocade box.

The gemstone is about the size of a baby's fist and has a deep red sheen, as if there is a fire burning inside.

Observe carefully, you can see that the surface of the gem is not very smooth, but is engraved with a dark golden rune, intertwined with the red color of the gem, shining with mysterious brilliance.

"Burning gem?"

Huo Jixing felt the rich power of the runes, reached out and approached the burning gem, and immediately felt the blazing temperature coming.

This heat seems to be radiating from the inside of the gem, as if one is standing next to a red stove, undergoing the baptism of high temperature.

Even if it is still a little far away from the gem.

But Huo Jixing could still feel the burning burning sensation.

Not only that, the burning gem also shows a deep red color, which seems to be a reflection of the flame inside the gem.

The bright light filled the room, rendering the walls and table tops a mysterious red color.

Huo Jixing picked up the [Burning Gem], felt the rune energy inside the gem, and instantly understood the changes in his body.

"My physical attributes have increased again, about 2 points."

The toughness of the body's skin and the durability of the muscles have been strengthened, and the fire of Nanli seems to be injected with inexplicable power and becomes much more active.

“Absolutely exquisite!”

"The improvement effect is obviously much greater than [Red Crystal] and [Blue Crystal]."

Huo Jixing was very surprised. After playing with the [Burning Gem], he strung it up and hung it around his neck.

Then he remembered his new mission and found a letter with fire paint in the middle of the black brocade box.

"Demacia?"

Huo Jixing wiped off the paint and opened the letter. After reading it, he couldn't hide his surprise.

He had no idea that his secret mission would be within the Kingdom of Demasi.

Perhaps he was a little confused, but after Huo Jixing read the letter carefully and confirmed that it had the signatures of the Empire's High Command and Swain, he gradually became calm.

"Is it a whirlpool within the empire?"

Huo Jixing thought of the two secret missions he carried out and Swain's worries.

It seemed like a new secret mission, but he felt as if he was being arranged to temporarily leave the Noxus Empire.

Huo Jixing couldn't help but think of the pale lady of the black rose, as well as Vladimir and the Scarlet Secret Society.

With his current strength, facing these beings with legendary or even demigod powers, he is indeed like a duck.

Maybe leave the Noxian Empire for a while.

For him, and for Swain, it's a good choice.

He only has the terrifying talents of the protoss, but the power to ensure his own safety will indeed arouse secret surveillance.

Destiny is endless and perishable like ordinary people.

Huo Jixing sighed helplessly and chose to follow Swain's will.
