There was another burst of discussion, and the hall gradually became quiet. Everyone's eyes turned to the Emperor of Demacia, Jarvan III, waiting for him to issue an order to mobilize troops.
However, before Jarvan III could speak, the prince standing in the center of the hall expressed his opinion first: "Father, according to my understanding of the Black Rose, although this organization serves Noxus, it is not directly under the Noxian army.
Ministry, so it is unlikely that they will directly hand over the information to the Noxian military. They will sell the information through various methods and have a higher possibility of obtaining the maximum benefit. In addition, Noxus is now launching a shocking war.
, it is impossible to mobilize a large number of troops to attack Demacia."
After hearing what Jarvan IV said, many ministers showed doubtful expressions.
"Where is Noxus launching the war? What have you heard about it in the past two years?"
Although a son is better than a father, Prince Jarvan at this moment is somewhat confusing to the Emperor of Demacia, who is sitting at the top.
"As far as I know, Noxus has launched a war of aggression against Ionia. If nothing else happens, the war may have spread to the interior of Ionia."
At this point, Jarvan IV simply revealed Liu Feng's information and speculations.
Before Jiawen III opened his mouth, the important ministers below him exploded.
"Ionia? It is said that it is a place where gods reside. Is the Noxian military headquarters crazy?"
"That's just a legend spread across the mainland. Who knows if there are gods in Ionia now..."
"Well, the Noxus border troops have been mobilized very frequently in the past two years, and they have been eager to try it many times..."
"But in fact, in the past two years, they have been more likely to use demonstration attacks, and they rarely engage in head-on confrontations with real swords and guns!"
"It is not easy to attack Ionia. As far as I know, ordinary armies cannot exert their strongest strength in Ionia."
"But if Noxus had been prepared, I am afraid that a lot of Ionia's territory would have been swallowed up by Noxus."
"Ionia is rich in resources. If Noxus is allowed to occupy it, it will have a huge impact on the structure of the continent. If we, Demacia, fight against it then, we will probably be at a disadvantage!"
"No, we must take action immediately. When Ionia is completely captured, it will be too late. We must strike now while they are not yet stable!"
In just a few minutes, many ministers had already expressed their opinions: once Noxus really takes action against Ionia, Demacia will never sit idly by and watch!
Seeing that all the ministers had expressed their opinions, Jarvan III looked into the distance and thought for a moment before announcing loudly: "The whole of Demacia has entered a state of war. First, the elite vanguard army will be sent to the interior of Ionia to assist in defense, and we will concentrate on quelling the chaos in the north.
, and then mobilized a large number of troops to reinforce Ionia!"

Ionia, Dilan Village.
In the Church of the Temple of the Stars, a group of people were discussing something.
The invasion of Ionia by Noxus was only recently confirmed by the temple. The temple also notified each village of the speed and strength of Noxus' attack, hoping that the leaders of each village would evacuate their tribesmen to the temple fortress in time.
In fact, with the intensity of the Noxian army's attack described in the temple notice, no village can do anything. Retreating to the temple fortress is the wisest choice.
Of course, some village elders insisted on their own opinions and believed that they could persuade the Noxian soldiers to end the war without bloodshed.
This is the case for the elders of Dilan Village.
"Elder Modena, Elder Dick, the Noxian army has already attacked. They will return to our village tonight at most. If we don't retreat, the villagers will definitely be massacred!"
Karma looked at several elders in the village with a surprised look. She couldn't believe that the elders made the decision to stay behind regardless of the safety of the villagers.
According to the description of Janna, whom I met a few years ago, Noxus is a city-state that fights all year round. The army has invaded almost all areas of Valoran. If the Noxians can be persuaded so easily, then this Ioni
The Asian war should have calmed down long ago!
If they do not retreat, it will be completely impossible for the villagers to resist the Noxian army with their meager strength. Once the army arrives, the villagers will have only one fate...
Massacred brutally.
"Karma, as the best healer in the village, you should believe in the power of the gods. Although Noxians like to fight, they would never dare to anger the gods, right?"
The elder named Modina smiled slightly and made a calm gesture to Karma.
"Yes, Karma, when the Noxians come, we elders will discuss with their commanders. I believe we can find a peaceful solution to the war. Ionia has been peaceful for so many years, and it should continue to be peaceful.
Go down."
Elder Dick also stood up and spoke.
In fact, regarding this Noxian invasion war, several elders in the village had surprisingly unanimous opinions: the Noxian army should be persuaded to end the war peacefully, instead of sacrificing the lives of precious Ionian people in the fortress to fight with those
Dirty Noxians fight.
As a statement, several elders decided to leave the village first and wait for the Noxians to arrive at the entrance of the village. According to their words, they would protect the village and the entire Ionia with their own actions.
Although Karma expressed different opinions on the decisions of several elders, she did not have much say.
Over the past few years, Karma has gained a good understanding of magic, but it is limited to protection and treatment. She always feels that there is still something missing when it comes to offensive magic.
In fact, Karma was somewhat resistant to offensive magic. When he studied magic with Janna, he first learned the shield skill [Inspire] with protective effects, and then slowly learned the [Steadfast] skill with control and healing effects.
Do not move].
"If the elders fail, I will have no choice but to cover the evacuation of the villagers as much as possible. Alas..."
Seeing the solemn attitudes of the elders, Karma secretly clenched his fists.
In the evening, the neighing of a war horse reached the village. All the villagers came out of their homes and looked at the elders standing at the entrance of the village with expectant eyes, hoping that they could end the war through negotiation.
Karma stood among the villagers with a serious face, listening to their words of hope for peace, watching the elders slowly walking towards the oncoming Noxian cavalry, but her heart kept sinking.
Finally, the elder came into close contact with the Noxian soldier and began to talk.
"Look, the Noxians are not all vicious people. They have begun to communicate with the elders. This war can finally end in a peaceful way! They are indeed the elders we respect!"
Some villagers expressed a strong sense of excitement when they discovered that the elders were talking to the Noxian leader.
However, before the excitement spread, the villagers saw the Noxian leader pierce the great elder's chest with his sword, and pointed the sword at the village.
