Time passed quietly for another week.

The suburbs of Demacia Xiong's capital, the Ionia Expeditionary Legion.

After nearly a month of discussion, research, decision-making, domestic mobilization and war preparations, Demacia's expeditionary force aided Ionia was finally established and ready to set off the front line.

Because Demacia has always pursued a route of elite troops with elite troops, extraordinary soldiers and elite equipment, the number of this Ionian Expeditionary Force is actually not large.

The first batch of troops aided Aiji were only 3,000, but almost all the entire army drew backbones from the major armies of Debang. They had considerable battlefield experience and were equipped with expensive rune steel equipment.

Although its combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the Fearless Pioneer Legion, the strongest legion of Demacia, it can also be regarded as one of the best strong troops in the Demacia Kingdom.

"Your Majesty has invested a lot this time."

The deputy commander of the Expeditionary Force was urgently transferred back from the northern defense line, General Garen Mian Guard, and Prince Garwen sighed to his good friend.

"Such an important elite legion was handed over to the hands of both of us. Does Your Majesty trust us a little too much?" Galen was a little unconfident.

Although he is the successor of the Mianwei family, he has also been on the front line for several years and has accumulated some great achievements.

But he is still young after all.

He was awarded the title of general at a young age and was awarded the important responsibility of deputy commander of the Expeditionary Force. This was not only the supreme favor given to him by the king, but also an overly heavy responsibility that weighed on the shoulders of the young general.

Garen thought he was still young and hadn't had the time to take on such responsibilities.

"Javen, are we two really OK?"

"What?" Prince Jiawen smiled: "Galen, do you look down on me as the commander of the legion?"

"Don't worry!" He patted Garen's broad shoulders carelessly: "With me taking you, we will definitely win a big victory in Ionia!"

"Tsk!" In front of the close friends who grew up together, Galen had no sense of estrangement between superiors and inferiority.

He naturally complained: "Javen, you have not fought many wars yet! Your Majesty asked us to be responsible for such important military affairs as soon as he came up. Are you not afraid of us taking the army into the ditch?"

"Don't worry, Garen. He's a little confident, and he's a little confident in me. With so many experienced officers supporting us, are you still afraid that you can't control the 3,000 people?"

Jiawen still had a sunny smile on his face.

But a sense of sorrow that he had never felt before had surged in his heart.

Actually Galen is right.

He joined the army and practiced later than Garen, and had never fought any major battles before. It is logical that he was not qualified to serve as the commander of the legion.

But his father said that it was precisely because he had too little experience in the military that he had to give him the opportunity to go to the battlefield, so that he could seize the time to accumulate military achievements on the front line, develop connections, develop prestige, and manage his own military team in the war.

Demacia, or in the entire runeland, there is no saying that "the son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall".

In this extraordinary world, the relationship between power and power has become more direct and absolute.

…

Whether it is the king of a civilized land or the tribal leader of a wild land, if they want to defend their power, they must use their personal force or battlefield strategy to show respectable prestige.

Otherwise, don’t blame everyone for “the emperor takes turns to do it and arrives at my house next year.”

Therefore, Jiawen III hoped that the prince would be the commander of this legion.

He is old and needs the prince to grow up as soon as possible.

"Oh, connections, prestige, and power." Prince Jiawen was so angry when he thought of this.

He used to think that taking over was just a simple success. As long as he accepted the scepter left by his father step by step, the throne would completely belong to him. Unexpectedly, there were so many twists and turns behind this matter.

Jiawen felt that the world had become more complicated.

"You have something to worry about?" Garen seemed to notice something.

"No" Jiawen had no choice but to deny it. It was not convenient for him to tell Garen about those words. The life that could be honest with his brothers no longer belonged to him.

and

Jiawen looked at a face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and seemed to be even more stupid than him. He probably couldn't understand those things, right?

"Galen." Jiawen had to change the topic rudely: "Let's go and see what the Zuan people do. It should have been set up."

That's right, Hex Flying Gate.

In order to facilitate the military expedition, the leader directly installed the Hex Flying Gate, which was actually powered by magic, to the Demacia, which forbids the demons.

The Expeditionary Legion has limited personnel, and bulk supplies can be replenished locally in Ionia, and Demacia is thousands of miles away from Zuan and Ionia.

Therefore, the Hex Flying Gate, which was originally extremely expensive, became the most suitable means of transportation for the Expeditionary Legion.

What's more, Ionia is still completely in the world of Noxus.

If you don't go to Hex Flying Gate, Zuan and Demacia will have to cross the sea first, and then fight the Noxus Empire Navy on the sea, and then land in Ionia after they have achieved complete success.

After landing in Ionia, how to penetrate the many lines of defense of the Noxus and meet with the local resistance forces of the leader in Ionia is another problem.

This plan obviously requires more unacceptable personnel, materials and time costs, and huge actions are easy to alarm the enemy, resulting in the initiative in the war falling into Noxus' hands.

To ensure that this plan is implemented, an expeditionary legion of only 3,000 people may not be enough, and the people are still the same.

But Demacia is still fighting with Noxus, so how could they send so many elite soldiers to support Ionia thousands of miles away?

so.

Facing this heavy objective reality, facing the common enemy of Noxus

The nobles of Demacia, including the radical banned demons represented by the Demon Search Corps, had to temporarily put down Demacia's political correctness.

After internal "rigorous scientific argumentation", they finally reached a consensus-

Hex Technology is not magic, it is pure technology.

Hex equipment is a prop that everyone can use, not a person's ability, nor is it as dangerous as magic.

…

With such theoretical guidance, Demacia turned a blind eye and allowed the leader to set up Hex Flying Gate in Demacia.

Of course, the Feimen cannot be scattered everywhere, so as not to operate the Feimen, so that the people of Demacia can see the blue magic light in the sky.

So after careful selection of the site, the Hex Flying Gate was finally set up outside the capital of Demaciaxiong, in the rarely visited mountains and forests.

The expeditionary army led by Garven and Garen was stationed here to wait for the completion of the Hex Flying Gate.

And today is the date it is scheduled to be built.

“It has been erected?”

Garen and Garvan came to the construction site together and happened to see the huge circular flying door, which slowly bloomed with a brilliant blue light under the power of the Hex Technology Engine.

The light at first looked like an aurora reflected in the sky, empty and ethereal.

Later it was like the sun hanging high in the sky, solid and shining.

In short, the magic light became brighter and brighter, and the expressions of the soldiers present became more and more bizarre.

Although everyone has a little understanding of Hex Technology in advance, it is only now that I can see it with my own eyes

This kind of light and energy seem to be no different from what they saw on the battlefield before.

"Technology, ache. These are all technology!" Prince Jiawen reiterated his guiding theory in a timely manner, implemented the spirit of his superiors, and grasped political correctness.

Everyone was very sensible and stopped talking.

Soon, the blue magic light condensed into a space gate based on the floating ring of the flying gate.

A ripples appeared on the door, like the turbulent waves on the lake.

"Someone is coming over to Zuan?" Everyone looked up curiously.

Two girls appeared from the other side of the door and slowly landed on the ground while supporting Feimen's magical energy.

They are.

"Lucks, Sona?" Gavin and Garen both opened their eyes in surprise.

They were first surprised that Lux would return to Demacia in this way, and then, the next second.

"Lucks--"

"Come here!"

Galen completely forgot the current occasion and rushed to his sister with an ugly expression.

He had long wanted to have a good chat with Lux.

"Lux, what's going on with you?" Galen started to use a tone of indictment.

"What's going on?" Lux was not afraid of her brother at all, but just blinked his eyes innocently.

Galen looked down at his petite sister who was not even as tall as his chest, and her expression became even more anxious: "Lucks, what are you talking about?"

"You? You? The commander of the wizard criminal army?"

"She still goes to Ionia?" Garen was so anxious that he broke out the swear words he learned in the army.

Because Jiawen has been training on the front line recently, he hasn't seen Lux much for more than a year. So he doesn't know exactly what Lux is now.

Other nobles who were even less familiar with Lux, even after hearing about the deeds of Miss Laxana, who volunteered to go to the battlefield at the age of 13, called the young man of the Mianwei family awesome and shouted, "Give birth to a daughter to a Lax."
