Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 225: Second Meeting with Swain

The meeting ended, and as Belfgan's confidants left, he looked at Li En who was still sitting.

"Li En, are you really going to Navoli?"

"Yes, General, the clan leader has made arrangements, and I must go."

“Okay, since it’s Lady Hilda’s arrangement, I won’t ask any more questions.

If you have any needs, just let me know, I will support you in any way I can! ”

"Thank you, sir. I want to bring the Black Stone regiment with me this time. I don't know the procedures I told you about last time..."

"Oh! Blackstone Regiment, right? Here are the documents for the procedure. Take a look."

Belfgang took out a document from the side and handed it to Li En. Li En took it without hesitation and started to look through it.

Belfgang didn't take Li En's behavior seriously, but spoke with a sighing tone.

“Speaking of which, the Blackstone Regiment’s swordsman leader is an excellent one. He is the fastest promoted swordsman leader in the empire and was awarded the Blackstone Rune Blade by the Grand Commander himself!

The 'Black Stone Corps' is handed over to you, Li En, you must manage it well.

With her here, your safety is more guaranteed, Li En."

"Yes, thank you, General. When I return to the empire someday, Li En will come to thank you!"

Seeing Li En's grateful expression, Belfgang smiled and raised his hand to pat Li En on the shoulder.

"Hahaha~! Li En, you're too polite. But since you said so, you must come and visit me then!"

"Of course, General!"

...

The Seventh Legion is moving very quickly.'

On the afternoon of the second day, the mighty fleet set out from Barugha Province and headed for Navoli Province to its northeast.

Li En and Riven, as well as her regiment, are also in this fleet.

...

Swain has been getting less and less sleep lately.

The reason for this is that Ionia, the original "fat meat", has slowly turned into a piece of rock that can break teeth.

Not long ago, a fleet that brought troops, weapons and other supplies to the army was destroyed by a mysterious entity just outside the port.

The bluish-white flames could be clearly seen several kilometers away from the port.

Led by Fabrice, only three or four warships that were far away in the entire fleet were not affected.

Including the resistance organization that used various secret methods and martial arts to harass the army in a mysterious way.

In addition, the major legions were scattered to various islands for landing, so Noxus' military advantage could not be fully utilized.

The entire Ionia turned into a huge swamp.

The Empire's army was slowly but surely sinking into it, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to turn around.

With Swain's vision, he could naturally see that if this continued, Noxus' military strength would continue to be depleted.

At that time, not only will the enemies around Noxus take action, but those provinces that have surrendered not long ago will also inevitably become restless.

However, this is not what Swain is most worried about.

What frightened him even more was that all the news about Ionia only remained on the surface.

Very little information has been collected about those hidden sects.

As for those powerful beings, they had no information at all before they took action.

There seems to be an invisible hand behind this war.

It used Ionia to weave a huge spider web that tightly strangled the empire.

During this period, Swain used all means to track down the mastermind, but was never able to discover his true identity.

In the cell, one person after another was tortured mercilessly, but the identities they obtained were like peeling off layer by layer like an onion.

“Tick, tick, tick!”

Looking at the various pieces of information on the table, Swain tapped the table lightly.

'The War Masons...are they blinded, or are they a tentacle of the other side?'

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Enter!"

"Sir, support from the Seventh Legion has arrived!"

"Okay, bring them to the conference room."

"Yes, my lord!"

After the guards left, Swain slowly stood up from his seat.

After changing his clothes, Swain came to the mirror.

The person in the mirror was tall and strong, with white hair neatly combed back and a pair of bloodshot eyes in the deep eye sockets.

Looking at those eyes, Swain frowned, took out a bottle of potion from his arms and drank it.

"Hoo~!"

The bitter potion stimulated his taste buds, and Swain let out a sigh of relief.

Looking in the mirror again, the bloodshot in my eyes had faded a lot.

So Swain turned and left the room, heading for the reception room.

...

In the conference room, Li En sat in an inconspicuous position near the corner, and Riven, wearing armor, stood quietly behind him.

Later on, it will be the confidants designated by Belfgang who will take over the handover with Swain, so Li En will naturally not take over the main role.

Through the opening of her helmet, Riven looked around the conference room curiously while keeping alert.

With her position as the 'Captain of the Imperial Swordsman', she is far from qualified to enter here.

“Kadong~!”

The sound of soldiers saluting was heard outside the door, and everyone turned to look.

Swain, wearing a black and red coat, walked in with great momentum and stride.

"Lord Swain!"

Belfgang's confidants Morrison and others immediately stood up and rushed to meet the other party.

Li En, who was in the corner, also stood up and followed.

"Well, everyone, thank you for your hard work along the way!"

Swain made eye contact with every person he met, and his plain words revealed an inexplicable temperament that made people feel a sense of conviction in the person in front of him.

"Lord Swain, these are the data on the support provided by General Belfgan!"

Morrison took out a document and handed it out with both hands. Swain's personal guard immediately stepped forward to take it.

The personal guards took the documents and several officers under Morrison away, asking them to compare the records on the spot.

Swain looked over to Morrison and continued talking to him.

During the visit, he inquired about the latest situation of the Seventh Army, the progress of the Baru Jaw Province, etc.

"Well, in that case, the Empire can rest assured that General Belfgan is in charge of Baru Jaw."

"Yes, thank you Lord Swain for your trust!"

Morrison saluted.

"Sir, Lord Li En is here with us this time."

Following Morrison's signal, Swain turned his gaze to Li En who had been standing behind him.

"Lord Li En is from Lei..."

"Okay, I remember him, Lee En Reyes."

As Swain watched Li En approaching step by step, his mind couldn't help but recall the figure standing behind Hilda at the awarding ceremony.

The Reyes family rose to power at an incredible speed thanks to the appreciation of the Grand Commander.

Swain is still very concerned about this family, and Li En, as the heir, is the focus of attention.

Therefore, even though Li En had grown a lot taller, Swain still recognized him at a glance.

"Good day, Lord Swain, Lee En Reyes salutes you!"

Walking up to Swain, Li En bowed gracefully and looked at him with a smile.
