Until one day, Darius, the imperial general who was on the expedition to Freljord, returned to Noxus.
Darius, like Swain, has given his all to Noxus.
Seeing the empire about to fall apart, Darius and his army pointed their swords at Swain's army. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Swain was a traitor.
But at this moment, Swain and Draven came to Darius.
"Darius, the corrupt monarchy has left this empire in tatters. For Noxus, we need to establish a completely new system!" This was the first sentence Swain said to Darius.
Afterwards, he explained to Darius all the pros and cons from every aspect.
Of course, Darius knew very well that everything Swain said was true. As the Hand of Noxus, he knew better than anyone else the corruption of the empire today.
"Join me, Darius, I need someone to help me!" Swain extended his hand to Darius.
At the same time, Darius looked at Draven next to Swain.
Draven grinned at Darius, "Brother, as you can see, I'm in."
Looking at his beloved brother who had joined Swain's camp, he recalled the grand vision that Swain had told him.
Darius slowly raised his hand and shook Swain's.
"I have never been loyal to any emperor. I am only loyal to Noxus! I will do anything that can make Noxus stronger!"
Just like that, a change swept across Noxus like a flash flood.
As the two generals who controlled most of the military power of the entire empire at the time, Darius and Swain had enormous power in their hands.
Perhaps it is because of this that Swain is regarded as a thorn in the side of the Black Rose.
In order to gather more troops, Darius and Swain recalled most of the soldiers guarding the border.
Because over the years, no country has dared to invade Noxus' territory, so it doesn't matter even if it is recalled.
This is also the main reason why Sejuani did not find many supplies in that city.
Just today, the armies of Darius and Swain have taken over much of Noxus!
Under the protection of Darius and his warband, representatives of the powerful families gathered together, listened to Swain's plans for the future of Noxus, and vowed to support this new regime.
Finally, Darius and his army arrived at the palace beneath the Immortal Bastion.
This is the last obstacle for the empire to establish a new system.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There was a loud noise from the palace gate, and the soldiers inside the palace tried their best to prevent the gate from being broken open.
However, their efforts were ultimately in vain.
"boom!"
The magnificent gate collapsed with a loud noise, and a huge figure covered in heavy armor and holding a giant meteor hammer broke through the gate by himself, knocking all the soldiers behind the gate away.
Captain Faron, General Darius's absolute confidant.
Because of the influence of Zaun's alchemy technology, his originally thin body was deformed and he now had a huge body of nearly three meters.
At that time, everyone was afraid of him and stayed away from him, except Darius.
Darius accepted Faron as a member of his army, and in the subsequent battles, he defeated all enemies that stood in Darius' way.
Just like now!
Behind Captain Faron, the door was knocked open and the slightly dim hall was filled with dazzling light. In this light, a figure holding a battle axe slowly walked into the hall of the palace.
Darius!
"Kill them for me!" At this time, the king sitting on the throne roared loudly.
After receiving the king's order, the few soldiers in the palace raised their swords and rushed forward tremblingly.
However, at this time, Captain Faron stood beside Darius and looked at the soldiers in front of him with Darius.
Without any surprise, all the soldiers stopped and just stared blankly at General Darius and Captain Faron in front of them.
The past achievements of General Darius, the Hand of Noxus, kept flashing through their minds, and looking at the battle axe in Darius's hand, they retreated.
There is no doubt that even if they rushed towards Darius, they would not cause any harm to him, but would only become the dead souls under his axe.
"I don't want to cause any more killing. Let's leave here."
Darius' voice sounded slowly like an amnesty order. The soldiers in the palace could no longer hold on. They dropped their swords and ran out of the palace quickly.
At this time, the only person left in the palace was the king sitting on the throne!
"Darkwill, your corrupt rule has left the empire in tatters. In order to satisfy your own selfish desire for immortality, you caused countless Noxian soldiers to die on the battlefield."
As if reciting the crimes of the king on the throne, Darius shouldered the battle axe and watched Captain Faron walk towards the king step by step.
On the throne, the elderly Darkwill had a look of fear on his face and his body was shaking constantly, but with the crown on his head, he was still hysterically trying to gather soldiers to protect him.
Coming closer, Captain Faron grabbed Darkwill's head with his big hands, took off the crown on his head, and walked towards Darius step by step.
At the same time, two soldiers carried a red-hot furnace to Darius.
As a symbol of the past empire and the beginning of a new empire, Darius wants to melt this crown.
At the back, the king clutched the armrests of the throne tightly with both hands and yelled hysterically.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out from behind a stone pillar on one side, and her red-hot sword blade cut into the gap of Captain Faron's leg armor. In pain, the crown in Captain Faron's hand fell. She caught the crown and ran towards the king quickly.
Coming closer, she knelt on the ground, held the crown in both hands, and presented it to her king.
She was a slave, the lowest status in the palace. Although she had a great talent for swordsmanship, her identity doomed her to a lonely life.
But she still chose to stand up at this time and defend her king, because only in this way could she have the opportunity to cross classes.
The crown was snatched away, and Captain Faron stood up suddenly, ready to rush towards the girl.
But at this moment, Darius's battle axe blocked in front of him. Captain Faron looked at his general, but found that he just shook his head at him.
Captain Faron did not move, but stood beside Darius and looked forward with him.
There, the girl held up the crown respectfully and fearfully, while the king snatched the crown away with a look of ecstasy on his face.
"My crown was taken back by my slave!"
After going through so much, his mind had become somewhat disturbed.
He put the crown back on his head and looked at Darius with a big laugh: "Don't you understand, Darius, it was the gods who returned my crown to me.
This is my kingdom, otherwise, you will be buried with me! It doesn't matter how many people die, if I can't be the king, nothing else matters!"
Listening to the king's words, the girl's eyes showed deep pain and struggle. She suddenly realized that what she had been pursuing in the past seemed to be nothing more than this.
The king quickly lowered his head and looked at the girl kneeling before him.
"Show them, girl, to die for your king! Go, kill them!"
Seeing that the girl was still not taking any action, the king continued to scream, "Go!"
In the dead silence, under the gaze of Darius and the king, the girl looked firmly at the king in front of her.
"Do not."
"You are so brave!"
Seeing that a small slave dared to disobey his orders, the king drew the sword beside the throne and was about to chop down the girl.
But at this moment, a black battle axe broke through the air and flashed past the girl, nailing the king in front of her to the throne!
The battle axe pierced the king's chest, tearing apart the life he once cherished most.
The king lowered his head and the crown fell, rolling again to the girl's feet.
"Tap tap tap~"
Darius walked towards the girl with heavy footsteps.
Along with the footsteps, there was also the deep but soul-stirring voice of Darius.
"The king used his hereditary fame and authority to force you to kneel, but Noxus made you stand up!"
"Let you be reborn in glory for all the world to see!"
Darius came up to the girl and held out his hand to her.
The girl looked at Darius, the light in her eyes fluctuating violently.
After that, she held Darius's hand tightly and straightened her back from her kneeling position.
"Zizzizi!"
Watching the crown being thrown into the furnace, everyone's eyes were reflected in a fiery red color.
As the boiling molten iron flowed out of the furnace, Darius looked up at the girl beside him.
"It will be a sword, a sword that belongs to you, just because you have superb swordsmanship, just because you have the ability!"
From this moment on, Darius had another steadfast follower by his side.
She is different from Captain Farong, or rather, she and Captain Farong are completely two extremes.
Captain Faron was wearing heavy armor on every corner of his body. He was an indestructible heavy shield standing in front of Darius!
The girl never wears any armor, because these armors will only hinder her attack. She will be the sharpest blade in Darius's hand!
With the overthrow of the old king, Noxus ushered in a new regime.
The three-member council - the Trifaree Council came into being!
Today, Noxus is led by three members of the Trifarious Council.
They are Swain, the one with farsightedness, Darius, the one with force, and the one with cunning, the pale witch holding a black rose.
Chapter 114 Encounter with the God of Ice and Snow!
Under the repair of that rich blood, Volibear's body, which had suffered countless sword wounds, gradually healed.
However, even though his body was completely repaired, there was still a very obvious scar on his left eye.
This scar connects the upper and lower eyelids, making Volibear's already majestic face even more terrifying.
