Night Raid on the Enemy Camp

Tryndamere gently wiped his Ice Saber, which they had obtained in the Storm's Lair. He also received a crown, which Lili had generously given him as a betrothal gift. 🎉💢 ♕🎅

At this moment, he probably thought of his wife again.

"Does this remind you of Ashe?"

"Yes, I don't know what she's thinking now, or if she still considers me her husband."

"She likes you a lot, there's no doubt about that. Once we get rid of Uncle Wolf, she'll definitely accept you back."

I hope so.

How do you like using these Ice Saber?

"Very sharp, Lili very much for the gift, Lady Lily."

"Is there anything special about it?"

"Special features? What do you mean?"

"Actually, this Ice Saber has an unusual origin; it belongs to Sejuani!"

"What?! The legendary goddess Sejuani who unified the East?" Tryndamere exclaimed in disbelief.

"That's right."

"I can't believe it. Maybe I'm just too dense to have discovered the secret."

I had expected Sejuani's weapon to have something special about it, like Ashe's Crystal Bow which doesn't require arrows, but Tryndamere didn't notice anything amiss. I wonder if it's because of her bloodline.

"Don't worry, you might discover it later."

"Was that crown also a relic of Lady Sejuani?"

"No, those are Avarosa's relics."

"That's incredibly precious. Ashe often says that the crown gives her a surge of power; it turns out it's an ancient artifact."

"What kind of divine object are you talking about? Is there something good? Show it to us!" Jeram leaned over and overheard Tryndamere's last sentence.

"Your double-edged sword is good enough, what other tricks are you up to?"

"Hehe, who doesn't like good stuff! By the way Yasuo, what do you think we should do next? Just stay here and hold out?"

"That was my original plan, but now I have a different idea. Let's go to everyone's place."

When we intercepted Avarosa's army, we didn't find Bernie; it seems he's been staying in the rear.

Since Uncle Wolf values him so much, maybe if we capture him and take him hostage, we can leave this place!

With that in mind, I decided to take Night Travel and launch a surprise attack on Bernie's camp!

When I shared this idea with everyone, I was met with unanimous opposition; they all wanted to go with me.

"I've learned Stealth Technique. If it's difficult to make a move, I'll just retreat. I won't force it, so don't worry."

Riven added, "Trust Yasuo. He said he won't risk his life; he'll come back if things get tough."

Hearing this, they all understood: If it works out, great; if not, I'll go back myself. It would be too much of a burden for everyone to come with me!

After nightfall, I set off lightly, without even bringing my Gale Sword, only a small dagger.

Fortunately, a thick fog rolled in, and when I got down the mountain, the fog was even thicker. I could hold my breath and not be detected.

As I approached Avarosa's camp, I heard many people patrolling and constantly reminding each other to stay alert, but I wasn't discovered until I entered their camp.

The fog and the darkness of night—it was truly a perfect match from heaven!

Finding the commander's tent was no easy task. I searched quietly for a long time but couldn't find any special tents. It seems that all the tents here are the same. This is troublesome.

Just when I was at my wit's end, I suddenly saw a light on in a tent in the middle. They were still up so late, they must be discussing something important. I quietly approached, only to hear sounds of a man and woman making love.

If nothing unexpected happens, this is Bernie's camp. You're something else, huh? You just suffered a defeat and you're already enjoying yourself here. Are you so sure of winning? Well, I won't let you have your way!

Just to be on the safe side, I gently opened a crack and peeked inside. There was a man and a woman inside, chatting happily.

"You're still the best!"

"Really? How many women are you seeing outside?"

"No, I meant compared to Ashe, she's no match for you!"

"You looked at her with such infatuation, I wanted to tear your face off!"

"I had no choice. My uncle told me to do everything I could to please her, or I shouldn't even think about getting any power."

"When the Old Chieftain abdicated, wouldn't it have been simpler to just hand over the position to you? Why go through all this trouble?"

"Sigh, he insists that Ashe has some kind of Blood of Ice, a true descendant of Avarosa, what can I do!" Bernie seemed very dissatisfied with Uncle Wolf, but dared not go against his wishes.

The woman in the tent was beautiful, with a well-proportioned figure, fair skin, and dazzling blonde hair under the lamplight. She even bore a resemblance to the Charming Women.

I originally intended to just rush in, but after hearing them talk about Uncle Wolf, I decided to listen a little longer and see if I could gain any additional insights.

The woman continued, "I think you're just stupid. You should speak well of the elders, send some nice gifts, and ask them to put in a good word for you with the Old Chieftain. Maybe that will work!"

"You don't understand my uncle at all. He's not someone you can just talk to. In my opinion, the barbarians and those berserkers from the east should have been killed as soon as they arrived in Avarosa. But he wouldn't listen to me, and now look what's happened—he's making a huge fuss."

"I think he's just confused; people tend to get like that when they get old!"

"Shh!" Bernie quickly covered the woman's mouth. "Are you out of your mind, talking bad about him like that?"

"What's there to be afraid of? He didn't follow us, and there's no one else here."

"How do you know no one is eavesdropping outside! He knows everything I do!"

"What a weirdo. Oh, by the way, I heard he's a werewolf, is that true?"

"Shut up! Don't mention this again!"

Why are you yelling at me! Humph, I'm leaving.

The woman made a move to leave, but Bernie quickly grabbed her, apologizing and caressing her. It was clear that he really liked this woman.

I'm only telling you this, please don't tell anyone else!

"Yes, I definitely won't tell anyone!"

"Actually, besides my father, the Old Chieftain also had an older brother, who was my uncle. His name was Warwick. In his early years, he traveled abroad and later went to Zaun, where he learned a powerful magic that allowed him to transform into a werewolf!"

"Oh! So that's how it is! No wonder the Old Chieftain is so powerful! Does that werewolf have any weaknesses?"

Everyone has weaknesses...

As I listened intently to Bernie recounting Uncle Wolf's weaknesses, several patrolling guards approached, forcing me to find cover.

Damn it, of all times they had to come at such a crucial moment, making me miss the second half of what they said.

But what was even more unexpected was that these patrolmen were no ordinary people; their eyesight and hearing were exceptionally sharp, and they actually spotted me!
