LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia.

In a flash, fifteen days passed.

Summer has arrived, and before you know it, the sky is getting brighter much faster, and the trees are filled with the chirping of cicadas.

Because of the hot weather, the army's progress has also become a little slower. The heat will evaporate people's physical strength. In order to take care of the condition of each soldier, Lu Qi deliberately slowed down.

At the same time, Noxus is also trying its best to delay the army's offensive. They have now given up on frontal combat and focus on pulling.

Every time he came up, he would get beaten up and run away, which actually delayed Lu Qi's time.

However, no accidents occurred on the way, and the army has been moving forward steadily.

The current position is also some distance away from the first stop, Trewell.

The straight-line distance is roughly equal to the distance from Tobitsia in Demacia to Mourngate.

If you look at this journey on a map, it may not be far, just about the span of five fingers.

However, in reality, it would take tens of thousands of troops led by Lu Qi to march continuously for almost a month and a half.

The territory of Noxus is indeed very large. If we follow the scale, it occupies one-third of the continent of Valoran, and the other third is the Freljord.

As for Demacia, it is one-third of the remaining one-third, or even smaller.

The rest is composed of various small countries, tribes, and forces.

This proves that they still have a long way to go.

But it doesn't matter, Demacia's territory Lucci will help it expand.

The afternoon sun shone warmly, illuminating the road ahead in a golden light. A slight cool breeze blew from the mountains, relieving the heat on people's bodies.

Lu Qi rode on a horse, at the front of the team, and kept moving forward.

Ahead, Quinn rode back, and vaguely saw a blue-faced falcon flying freely in the sky.

"Your Highness, not far ahead is the dividing river of Grove. After passing the dividing river, we can see Grove in another half-day's journey."

Quinn found Lu Qi and reported to him: "Noxus does not seem to have set up an ambush at the dividing river. Valor and I have explored the area near the other side of the river and found no trace of the enemy."

Lu Qi nodded slightly when he heard this, and became thoughtful.

Quinn's talent can be maximized on the battlefield, and she has now mastered the art of concealment better than herself.

It is very possible that they have reached LV9.

Lu Qidu is still only at LV8, of course, the main reason is because he has never practiced at all.

And Quinn is not only talented, but he also knows how to practice hard.

Since she has confirmed that there is no problem, it is basically stable.

I originally thought that Noxus would set up a defense line at the dividing river of Grovet, so that even if it could not stop them, it could greatly delay Lucci's time.

Turns out they didn't.

Apparently retreated to Grovet.

"It seems that a lot of new preparations have been made."

Lu Qi muttered to himself, raised his head and said, "No problem, keep going, we have made a lot of preparations."

Their behavior can only show that they do not want to waste any more soldiers before the actual war begins.

You must save all your energy to deal with Demacia's next attack on Groft.

Quinn nodded upon hearing this.

Luqi opened the secret key and checked the information. Tiana's battle in Shurima went smoothly, with basically no obstacles.

Lev has also led the army and will soon arrive at Boreham's territory. Their processes are basically the same.

Now it's in an up-and-down position.

At the top of the chat list, there was a message sent by Wynward twelve days ago.

As Demacia's firepower backup, he and Frey were not idle either. The two quickly began to cooperate, developing more sophisticated versions of magic weapons, artillery, and firearms every day.

In particular, attempts to combine magic with gunpowder have finally made progress recently.

Now that new weapons are being transported via extremely fast dragon birds, it's time to calculate.

There is also a message that was just sent not long ago.

The transport team for the Forbidden Demon Stone Statue has already merged with the following troops. It was specially sent by Lu Qi to pick them up. The distance between the two sides is constantly shrinking.

After closing the secret key, Lu Qi rode up and came to the front of the team.

While looking back, he said loudly: "A little further on, we will see Groft. This battle is also the second and most important battle in our attack on Noxus! This is the time when we really defeat Noxa. This is a necessary moment of confidence! The enemy has come to their senses now and has made a lot of preparations, but they can never imagine our determination this time! Here, I want everyone to strengthen their beliefs. For Demacia, we Must win!"

He raised his fist in the air.

Naturally, the voice could not be conveyed to everyone at once, but soon the soldiers began to spread the word from word to mouth.

In a short period of time, the morale of the army increased.

Returning to the team, Lu Qi looked at Lux, Sona, and the other mages: "Get ready, you guys are going to play together this time."

This battle is about whether the Noxian border defenses can be defeated in one fell swoop, so there is no need to hold back.

Everyone nodded seriously.

Lux was also riding on the horse, took a deep breath, and whispered: "I seem a little nervous."

She had been used as a backup before and was well protected without having to take excessive risks.

But this time was different. The ensuing battle was extraordinary, and they faced Noxus who was more prepared.

Each of them has to contribute.

Although Lux was already prepared, it was inevitable to feel nervous before this.

Lu Qi was standing by and asked, "What's the reason for the nervousness?"

Lux shook her head, her face a little confused: "I don't know, there are many."

She has also used magic to fight against enemies, but it is still far from a real fight on the battlefield.

She already knows how cruel war is. Everyone is trying their best to survive and using all means without sparing any effort.

And she was about to be caught up in it, although she knew that from the moment she decided to follow, it was destined to be like this one day.

But when this day comes, I still feel like my heart is hanging.

Lu Qi looked sideways at her side face, which was white and flawless, like an angel who had no experience in the world, but these days her childishness had faded and she had gained some maturity.

His eyebrows were lowered, but the sparkle in his eyes was still so beautiful.

She is definitely a strong girl who has her own ideas and opinions, and will not waver easily once she makes a decision.

Otherwise, Lu Qi would not let her get stained with blood. It was her own idea that she did not want to be protected in the greenhouse of the flower room.

This dazzling blonde girl will eventually lose her innocence when she was young, but this will not prevent her from still shining.

Because Lu Qi will always support her decision.

After thinking about it, Lu Qi raised his hand, and a flash of aqua blue light suddenly appeared on his hand.
