The three of them traversed the grand corridors of the Immortal Fortress. The servant moved with steady and swift steps, as if time were particularly precious in his world. However, for Wei Dong and God Tone, who had long lacked physical exercise, keeping up with such a pace was clearly a challenge. The interior of the fortress was vast, and each step felt especially heavy, particularly when the journey stretched on, intensifying their sense of fatigue.
As the trio reached a sky bridge spanning the interior of the fortress, the air seemed to grow fresher, and the surrounding scenery opened up considerably. Yet for the Two Brothers, it was a long and torturous path. God Tone could no longer bear it and let out a loud wail: "Oh! Wait a minute, I can't go on." No sooner had he spoken than he plopped down onto the cold hard ground, as if this was the only way to grant himself a moment's rest.
Wei Dong Although he persisted for a few seconds longer than his younger brother, he ultimately had to stop as well. Leaning against the railing of the bridge, his face was pale, and he was breathing heavily in pain. Each breath seemed like a luxury, and sweat covered his forehead. This short journey was simply torture for them.
Seeing this, the servant couldn't help but slow down, turning to face the two adults. His eyes were filled with concern and a hint of apology, seemingly unaware of how difficult his pace was for the two adults. The servant gently said, "We can take a rest here, recover a bit before continuing our journey." His voice was soft, showing respect and understanding for the two adults.
Wei Dong leaned against the railing, sweat dripping from his forehead. He gasped, feeling a sense of helplessness against the fatigue that seemed to cut through the air, and said with difficulty, "Hey... why is this place... so far away?" His gaze drifted down to the area beneath the sky bridge, where a magnificent corner of the Immortal Fortress was on display. The sky bridge they stood on connected the Immortal Fortress to another mysterious building. From this height, one could not only appreciate the grandeur of the fortress but also witness the hidden corners of this land.
The servant quickly explained to Wei Dong, "My lord, this is because the Summoner's training hall is located within The Tower of Trial, so naturally, this is a relatively distant place." His tone carried a hint of patient explanation, as if he hoped to help the two lords understand the necessity of reaching the training hall and the special significance of this journey.
The Tower of Trial, as one of the most secretive and magical places in Noxus, is located far from the center, aiming to maintain its mystery and security. This tall tower is not only a sacred place for Summoners to learn and train, but also a symbol of Noxus' magical power. The power and knowledge contained within are enough to make the entire empire's enemies hesitate.
After hearing this explanation, Wei Dong still felt somewhat displeased with this seemingly endless journey, but his curiosity about the upcoming destination also grew.
Wei Dong's curiosity seemed to be ignited by this introduction to Noxus, and he developed a strong interest in the deep structure and significance behind this fortress. He continued to inquire, "So the Immortal Fortress is more like a government center, with various other connected building departments nearby?" This question indicated that Wei Dong was trying to gain a deeper understanding of Noxus's structure and operations.
The servant agreed with Wei Dong's question, nodding seriously as he slowly replied, "Yes, Lord Wei Dong. To the west is the Tower of Trial, to the east is the War Forge, to the south lies the City of Deceit, and finally, to the north is the Assassination Hall." This statement was not only a direct response to Wei Dong's inquiry but also an overview of Noxus's complex and diverse structure.
The structural arrangement not only highlights the importance of the Immortal Fortress as a center of politics and power but also showcases how Noxus, as an empire with a rich history and profound culture, embodies its complexity and multifaceted nature through various buildings and departments. Each department carries specific functions and missions, ranging from warfare to strategy, from assassination to magic, collectively forming the foundation and soul of the Noxus Empire.
God Tone lay on the ground, seemingly impatient with the long trek to the training hall. His voice carried a hint of exaggerated annoyance: "Wah wah wah wah! Really? Seriously? Do you know what connects to the southeast? My ass!" The end of his statement was almost a scream, followed by a displeased expression, as if this joke could bring him a moment of self-entertainment to alleviate the fatigue of the journey.
I was dumbfounded when I heard God Tone's response, and for a moment, I didn't know how to react. His eyes widened, his mouth twitched, showing his disbelief at the sudden and playful nature of God Tone's response. In a serious environment like Noxus, such casual and playful communication was clearly uncommon, which left me not only shocked but also somewhat embarrassed.
Although I have served many important figures in Noxus and encountered various personalities and temperaments, the uniqueness of the brothers Wei Dong and God Tone seems to have caught me off guard. I had to suppress my inner confusion and astonishment, trying to regain a normal expression, but I was still pondering how to effectively communicate with these brothers.
