Noxus, the Immortal Bastion.

This is the capital of Noxus and also the most prosperous place in Noxus. Of course, this prosperity is only relative. Compared with other barren lands in Noxus, the area where the Immortal Bastion is located can be regarded as a rare fertile land in the whole of Noxus.

But this capital city is far from comparable to the places Zhang Xu and others have been to - let alone compared with the technologically advanced Piltover, even compared with Presidium of Navoli after the war and reconstruction, it is still inferior, and it is probably only better than Zaun.

Speaking of which, I don't know what Zaun is like now that Ekko has managed it. I think with the help of the Steel Shadow and the support of Shurima, Zaun has been reborn and may be almost the same as the Immortal Bastion now.

Zhang Xu was thinking randomly in his mind, and soon he remembered the last scene when he met Ao Xing.

The ball of light released by Ao Xing completely devoured his body, and when he woke up, he had reappeared on the top of the Holy Mountain. The storm that swept around him could no longer move him at all, and he mastered the power of the storm.

Moreover, this storm force...

It's not the kind of weak power that Lee Sin and Yasuo are blessed with.

Perhaps, just like Aurelion, Ao Xing also gave him the pure power of origin.

Therefore, he should now be considered as the Dragon Lord.

Zhang Xu lowered his head and clenched his fists. His eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the blue light surrounding his arms. Ever since he gained Ao Xing's power, a layer of blue halo-like light has surrounded his forearms.

However, this halo can only be seen by him, no one else can see it, not even Yasuo, who has also been blessed by the dragon.

This power...

Zhang Xu hasn't tried it yet, but he instinctively feels that this might be the power he possesses now, second only to the Dragon King.

As for what Ao Xing said at the last moment...

Is the void not as simple as he imagined?

Maybe, but Zhang Xu was too lazy to think about it anymore. He was now full of buffs, and if this level of power was still not enough to resist the void...

Then he can still hug the thigh!

He has now thought it through clearly. No matter whether it is the Dragon King, Ao Xing, or Bard, none of them will allow the Rune Land to be swallowed up by the void, nor will they sit idly by.

......

"Zhang Xu, Zhang Xu!"

Sarah's two consecutive calls interrupted Zhang Xu's thoughts. Zhang Xu looked up and happened to meet some curious and inquisitive faces in front of him.

"Zhang Xu, do you know anything about Noxus?"

Among the few people, only Sivir had dealt with the Noxian guys, and of course that experience was not very pleasant. Sivir still remembers the pain when the blade pierced her back, and she still feels a dull pain just thinking about it.

If she could catch that guy this time, Shiver swore that she would make him suffer the same fate!

"Noxus..."

Zhang Xu pondered for a moment, sorted out his thoughts and said:

“Although the origins of Noxus are not as ancient as those of Shurima and Ionia, it has existed for quite a while. Noxus was once a tribal union of the ancient Noxian people, who were brutal by nature and a group of out-and-out barbarians.”

“They took over an ancient city and built it into the center of the empire. Noxus was threatened from all sides, so they fought fiercely against all enemies, and never gave up until they won. Eventually, the empire expanded year after year and eventually formed what it is today.”

“Their ancestors were aggressive and brave, and the Noxians are no different today. This is a ruthlessly expansionist empire that relies on invasion and war to survive and thrive. However, the underlying reason for their constant warfare is actually quite simple.”

"Thousands of years ago, the Rune War that swept across the entire continent destroyed the territory of Noxus and turned it into a barren and destitute land. They simply could not meet their needs by relying solely on production within their own borders. Therefore, they could only turn their attention to other countries and other fertile areas."

"Then why don't you try to make this land better?"

Lulu raised her head while shaking her staff, seemingly asking a naive question, but in fact, the former ruler of Noxus had really thought about this question.

They once gathered all the outstanding magicians in the empire and tried to use magic to completely transform the land of Noxus into normal land where crops could be grown.

To this end, they spent a lot of manpower and material resources.

But in the end they failed.

The land of Noxus was caused by the Rune Wars. It was the power of the runes that changed everything here, and the power of the runes was so strong that this change was irreversible.

The Noxians could only dream of their vast territory and watch the poverty here.

"So... they were actually forced?"

Sindra narrowed her eyes slightly, and a strange light was reflected in her eyes.

Syndra has no sense of belonging to Ionia, and she doesn't have a bad impression of Noxus. In Syndra's heart, she even wants to thank Noxus.

If those guys hadn't tried to use her powers to stop the Noxian invaders, she wouldn't have been able to regain her freedom like she is now.

Thinking of this, Syndra glanced at Zhang Xu - although he was not completely free now, but at least he was much stronger than when he was sealed.

"I guess so, but I don't agree with some of their practices."

Zhang Xu shrugged, referring to the incident with Riven.

It is indeed difficult for Zhang Xu to agree with the idea of ​​sacrificing a small number of people in order to achieve a certain goal of the entire empire and exchanging a small number of people for the interests of a larger number of people.

It’s not that this idea is wrong. Sometimes those in power should not be soft-hearted.

But this does not prevent Zhang Xu from disagreeing with this idea.

"Now that Noxus has suffered defeat in its wars against Ionia and Demacia, it is estimated that it will also be defeated in the face of Freljord soon. What's next..."

Zhang Xu curled the corners of his mouth, with a hint of anticipation rising in his heart.

He was really looking forward to the day when Noxus decided to take action against Shurima.

Wow, that picture is so beautiful, it’s really hard to imagine!

It’s so thrilling!
