Chapter 325: Fake President and Real President
Urgot was dead, and the battle was over.
These Noxian soldiers were already remnants of a defeated army without a commander, and faced with Riven and the others who had just displayed their might, they had completely lost their will to fight.
But Riven still needs to rescue tens of thousands of civilians, and the pressure she faces is not small.
She tried her best to mobilize the last of her divine power, barely controlling the airflow, lifting tens of thousands of people up into the sky, and slowly flew towards the distance.
Because their divine power was almost gone, it was foreseeable that they would fall back to the ground in a mess after not flying for long.
If the enemy pursues them in time, their situation will become very dangerous.
But it doesn’t matter.
With Urgot's death, supreme command returned to Lester.
General Lester returned to the Yipu River Port just in time for Urgot to die and the Leader to flee with his people.
He came out in time to gather the remaining soldiers, clean up the battlefield, and collect Urgot's body. He also cried in front of the body of his "good brother" General Urgot, saying that he would not be a human being if he did not avenge this...
In short, Leicester did everything an imperial general could do, but he didn't think of sending troops to pursue.
Don't ask, the answer is that the leader flies too fast and he can't catch up.
that's all……
Just like the ending of the last Yipu River Port massacre, Riven and others successfully escaped safely with tens of thousands of troops this time.
They flew for a long time, but no one came to chase them.
The leaders heaved a sigh of relief, and finally had the heart to have a good chat with Riven:
"Orianna... No, Guildmaster Riven."
Master Yi, Master Jie, everyone watched with great interest.
On behalf of everyone, Fia asked her curiously, "Why don't you use your real name, but the name Orianna, to work in Ionia?"
"Are you worried that your Noxian identity will create a gap between us and make it difficult to develop comrades?"
"Uh..." Riven was suddenly in trouble again.
Although Feiya had helped her and reasonably guessed the "truth" behind her using a pseudonym.
But she was too embarrassed to continue lying.
Because Riven realized that the people in front of her only knew that she used to be an officer of Noxus, and now she is a leader and the president of the Ionia branch.
If the truth is just this, it’s actually not a big problem.
After all, a princess of an imperial warlord like Mel could now be a core member of the Wind Leader Association. No one would question her switching to the Wind Leader as a mid-level officer in Noxus.
But the problem is that no one knows:
She simply named herself the "branch president".
She was not a special commissioner from Zaun at all, and was even a wanted criminal by the Zaun leader. The goddess Janna personally came to the Twin Cities, and among the bad guys who were judged, she had a place.
If you knew this...
Will everyone still believe in her, recognize her, and treat her as a comrade?
Riven was feeling anxious, but seeing the trust in everyone's eyes, she felt too embarrassed to continue hiding it.
"Actually..." Riven clenched her fists secretly.
She finally decided to tell the truth: "I am..."
"Yes, she is the special envoy we sent to Ionia. She changed her name temporarily to facilitate her work."
Suddenly, a strange voice appeared in everyone's ears.
"Who?!" Everyone was slightly stunned.
It's not surprising that someone is approaching, but... they are still flying in the sky.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound in surprise, only to see a person falling from a great height without making a sound and landing beside them.
No, it wasn't just one person who came.
It was a young man with a cute bluebird standing on his shoulder.
Next to them stood a tall, fat, human-shaped black-skinned toad.
"Be careful! This guy is very strong!!" Master Jie, who was always calm and composed, couldn't help but shout out.
Because he was shocked to find that this man, this bird, and this toad... they were clearly flying, but they could all perfectly hide their magic fluctuations, making him, a top assassin master, completely unnoticed.
"Who are you?" Master Jie felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
If the other party is an enemy, they will probably die here.
But Riven's pupils shrank: "You, you are..."
She recognized this face. During her time in the Twin Cities, this face appeared on the front page of the Piltover Daily News almost every day.
"President Levi?!" Riven called out his name in surprise.
"What?!" Feiya and others were stunned at first.
Then, they looked at him with shocked, curious and admiring eyes: "You...you are our leader, President Levi?"
"Yes, I am." Levi replied with a smile.
"Why did you come to Ionia?" Everyone looked at him in confusion, then at Riven: "Didn't Guild Leader Riven say that Zaun is too far away from us, and we can't contact them at all, and we can't send anyone to support us?"
"Hmm..." Riven was embarrassed.
Of course, these words were made up by her. As a fake president, she naturally couldn't call the real leader.
"President Li, President Levi..." Riven didn't dare to look at him.
This heroic female warrior was like a primary school student who had done something wrong in front of Levi. She lowered her head, blushed, and waited for the teacher's criticism with guilt.
But Levi did not criticize her or expose her.
He just told everyone with some reservation: "Before, for some reasons, I really couldn't contact you. But now, this problem has been solved."
In fact, the truth is, he only knew that there were suddenly many more Janna believers in Ionia, but he had no idea where these "wild leaders" came from.
And Riven and the others' way of praying is very unscientific.
Not only did he not give the address, but he also didn't say what happened. He just shouted "Jana bless you" every time...
This kind of junk information will be automatically filtered out by Miss Jana's information processing system.
If it was the Goddess Gana in her heyday, she would be able to cover the entire ocean with her divine thoughts, lock onto the specific location of the believers from a distance, and even use it to descend from the air and manifest herself in the form of a holy incarnation.
But with Janna's current abilities, she has no way of figuring out the exact location of the believers across the thousands of miles between Zaun and Ionia.
So, in order to find out the truth, Levi had to ask Tam to come to Ionia to do some investigation.
This investigation revealed:
"You guys are doing a great job in Ionia."
"It's only been a month, and we've already saved so many people and formed such a large team."
Levi praised generously.
"Hmm..." Riven was embarrassed.
From her perspective, she couldn't tell whether Levi was praising her or criticizing her.
After all, theoretically speaking, what she did was to pretend to be an imperial envoy and, under the official banner of the Leader, to pull together an independent armed force that obeyed her orders.
If this kind of thing happened in the Noxian Empire, she would have been regarded as a rebellious warlord by the Empire and the army would have been sent to attack her.
"No need to be modest." Levi seemed to see through Riven's embarrassment.
He looked into her eyes calmly and said sincerely: "I just saw your performance. You did a really good job."
"It can even be said that your success in Ionia... is more significant than all the work I have done before."
"This..." Riven was slightly stunned.
She was very puzzled: "President Levi, why are you..."
Why don't you expose her and speak so highly of her?
"Because what I want to see are people like you." Levi said with emotion.
He had no involvement in Ionia's affairs. Even in the previous battle, he just stood by and watched silently without helping.
But the team of leaders still emerged and formed spontaneously amidst numerous obstacles, bravely standing up for their ideals. Moreover, they succeeded.
All of this is achieved by their own strength, a power that is born spontaneously from the masses.
"Your presence means..."
The world no longer needs a Levi. Everyone can be a Levi, the protagonist who leads the wind of change.
And the career that Levi pursued all his life has been successful in a sense. Because...
"The faith of the leader can no longer be killed."
