Chapter 622 The magnificent barrier

Taliyah built a city wall for rapid construction, and used a large-scale earth magic with high strength, from sunrise to sunset, never stopping.

Fortunately, Taliyah is the daughter of the earth. Using magic does not require the participation of magic. She only needs to step on the earth and spread her imagination to the fullest. For her, the magic of the earth is a simple mental activity.

Too much brain can make you feel tired, and weaving one by one is not a simple matter. Whenever you can't stand it, Geno will send Taliyah to the magic garden in Precidian, which is very close to the spiritual realm and is a good place to improve your mind and feel the nature. Through a series of strange arches and on the top of the mountain where flowers are competing for beauty, Taliyah uses the meditation method taught by Kalma. After sitting cross-legged for more than ten minutes, she becomes energetic again and then continues to work.

It took two days and finally appeared in front of Geno. A circle of rock walls surrounding Precidian, connecting the southern mountains, and completely separating the western plains from the southern plains. If the enemy wants to converge, they must bypass this magnificent barrier.

This is almost against the will of heaven. The rise of the city walls has made some people feel sincerely proud, while others are worried that doing so will bring anger from the earth.

They are not used to living under the shadow of the city walls, which makes them feel unfree, as if they are living in a cage.

Taliyah felt the ambivalence of the Ionians. Like Arrelia, people were loved and hated. People here either stick to tradition or make extreme changes. Few people can think calmly.

She could only guarantee that she would stuff the city wall back to the earth after the war, and that would still leave a huge scar on the newborn soil.

But everything has two sides. If you don't do this, Precidian will be defeated instantly under the impact of the Noble army. At that time, all the Ionians will survive under the law of losing power and humiliating the country, let alone retaining the old traditions.

On the night the city wall was completed, several senior officials in the Resistance Army camp still held a meeting at the Zan family residence. This was almost every night these days, and sometimes the candlelight in the camp tent continued until late at night.

The Zan family mansion was once requisitioned by Admiral Duguer of Noxus as the base of the fleet officers. Many things were emptied at that time, so the hall seemed empty. The family emblem composed of only the blade was hung on the walls of the lobby, and the garden in the house was taken care of by Arrilia.

The theme of tonight's meeting was supposed to be commending Taliyah, but a heavy news broke the atmosphere that should have been relaxed.

"Daluwan was lost, and all three thousand rebels were killed. A group of suicide squads carried flame stones and sank ten enemy ships at sea."

When he spoke the news, Arriya's expression was heavy, her hands were weakly held in her arms.

"I never asked them to do that, I just asked them to delay time, and I didn't expect them to lose all their lives."

As he spoke, Arriya covered her hands on her face, and her voice became choked. Crystal tears quickly dripped through her fingers on the conference table served as the mahogany tea table, and there was also a crystal sand tray shaped by Geno on it.

"All spirits are with them." Kalma sighed, and everyone bowed their heads to mourn the heroic martyrs.

“Did I make the wrong decision?”

Arrilia put down her hands and looked out the window with her wet eyes. In the nameless tomb in the garden, the whole family of Zan's family was lying. She could feel her brothers watching her. Even though they had been sleeping with the All Spirits of Ionia, she was still afraid that she would disappoint and resent them.

She first let countless people's blood stain the seals and emblems left by them, and then made a wrong decision to kill thousands of compatriots, which made her begin to doubt whether she was worthy of sitting in this position and being followed by everyone.

"Arelia, you did not do anything wrong. War is inevitable. But if you give up seeking justice for those martyrs who died bravely, you are really wrong."

Arrelia turned her head and looked at Geno hesitantly, without any obvious sadness seen in his face.

"Actually, when you handed them the Flame Stone, you should have thought of such an ending. You just didn't think thoroughly enough. The Flame Stone is similar to a bomb that cannot be escaped in the hands of people with weak abilities."

Geno's voice was calm and firm. He looked at Arella's eyes straight, and the faint blue light flashed deep in his pupils.

Flame stones can be detonated remotely, but they require more sophisticated magic control or long-term training. For those who have first come into contact with Flame stone and have never systematically trained their talents, Flame stone is like an explosive that does not know the length of the lead. Only at the moment of explosion can you make it clear that you have activated the Flame stone.

"I'm too stupid, so I can't be a leader, I can only be a dancer." Arriya's eyes dimmed and she didn't dare to look at Geno's eyes.

"We might as well put aside our personal feelings and look at this battle from a global perspective."

Geno pressed his finger on the sand table, and soon the area belonging to Dalu Bay was also covered with black gas. During the time they were working hard to build the fortifications, Noxus had almost eroded the entire Navoli, except for Precidian in the heartland.

"In the Battle of Daluwan, a total of 3,000 rebels were sacrificed. The enemy's fleet also lost nearly 2,000 people, ten ships, and several supplies. Although this war was not won in the end, putting it on any battlefield in Navoli was an unprecedented breakthrough."

In a battle without the powerful extraordinary, a Noxus soldier can often fight to three to five rebels, and the number of Noxus troops is more than three times that of the rebels. If this battle loss ratio is converted into the Battle of Daluwan, and the loss of enemy supplies is included, the rebels can be said to be dead without regrets.

"And I heard that the supplies there were taken away by the evacuated residents before the war, and no one of the pickled fish was left for the Noxus. After capturing Talu Bay, they received no supplements, and only an empty fishing village."

Geno was concerned about whether the rebels' sacrifice in this battle is worth it and what role it can play. Although the strength of both sides is inherently unequal, the final victory and defeat are all built up by the results of small battles.

"And this has also bought time for the arrival of reinforcements. I have received news from Xia Luo that Vastaya's parts have been assembled and moved south. I will arrive at Precidian as soon as two days after meeting. She has reserved some of the shadow streams. I originally could only afford one thousand soldiers because Vastaya, but I didn't expect that Xia Luo brought 3,000 soldiers to support us this time. This is really good news."
