There are only three shield formations guarding Jarvan IV, one of which needs to further investigate the situation in the village.
Although the drone has already discovered the enemy situation in Quiet Lake Village, that is only the surface.
Noxus does not restrict magic and even dares to use dark magic.
No matter what, they had to make sure the village hadn't been magically trapped by the Noxians.
The other three accompanying shield formations will remain outside the city for the time being, mainly used to guard Noxian prisoners of war and to respond with the shield formation hidden in the distant forest to support His Royal Highness the Prince at critical moments.
However, although the number of Noxians is large, each soldier of the Fearless Vanguard Regiment has the ability to "fight one hundred" when working together.
This number of enemies is not enough to prove anything.
The group arrived at the village entrance and dismounted. Sixteen elite warriors from two shield formations surrounded Jarvan IV, Li Lin, Shyvana and Alberk in the center.
Li Lin secretly mobilized hundreds of air combat machines, Storm and combat drones with "optical camouflage" functions, which occupied a powerful position and controlled all the entrances and exits of the village from all directions.
Upon learning that the Demacian army had entered the village, the Noxians quickly assembled their troops and gathered in the center of the village, outside the village chief's house.
Their commander, the Pale Lady, was at the gate of the yard, and Ted was still imprisoned in the side room.
On the narrow street, led by Jarvan IV, the group stopped dozens of meters away from the Noxians and confronted each other from afar.
"Your Excellency is His Royal Highness Prince Jarvan IV, right?"
Across the street, the middle-aged Noxian commander shouted, "I am the general of the 37th Noxian Regiment. My name is Prescott."
He spoke the language of Demacia, which sounded a little broken, with a thick eastern Noxian accent, but he was very fluent.
"I have come here as per your invitation. Where is Ted?"
It was obvious that Jarvan IV did not have the patience to talk nonsense with these enemies who invaded Demacia and set traps and almost caught him.
"Your Highness is really impatient. Without patience, you will be frustrated." Prescott chuckled.
To the people in Demacia, this was actually a reward for their prince's defeat, which sounded extremely harsh.
"How dare you disrespect His Royal Highness the Prince? I advise you to keep your mouth shut!" Paldek, who was guarding the prince with a strong shield and a spear, scolded.
"Hey, young people, it's better not to be too impulsive."
Prescott was still smiling and was not affected by him at all.
"You should be the new Sword Captain of the Fearless Vanguard, right? I've heard of you. It seems that Tiana Crownguard felt that this position was too low, so she gave it to you to become the Grand Marshal?
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. You truly deserve to be the right-hand man of the Light Shield Royal Family. You can easily reach heights that ordinary people like you will never reach in your lifetime."
"you!"
Although Paldek is very strong, he is obviously no match for Prescott in the verbal confrontation. He was "killed" and retreated step by step without any ability to refute.
"Unlike us in Noxus, where the most capable prevail, anyone who can prove their ability will be given a position that matches their abilities."
Prescott's words were full of disparagement of Demacia and praise of Noxus, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Enough!" Jarvan IV couldn't help but shout, "I didn't come here today to listen to you brag about your brutal and violent system! Hand over Ted now!"
Seeing that these Demacians did not buy into his frequent propaganda of loyalty to the empire in the army, Prescott did not seem discouraged, but just shrugged his shoulders.
These people are the elite of Demacia's Fearless Vanguard. If they can be convinced by me, that would be a miracle.
"Let's go inside and talk. It's not good to stand outside the village and talk..."
"No need." Jarvan IV interrupted Prescott directly. "It's fine here. Let's exchange hostages, and then you can go back to Noxus. There's no need for such trouble."
"Alright," Prescott said nonchalantly. "But we've already agreed to exchange the 50 Noxian prisoners you captured for your lieutenant."
Upon hearing this, Jarvan IV's eyes turned cold, and he clenched the Dragon Spear in his right hand, pointing the tip of the spear at Prescott.
"Don't talk nonsense here!" He suppressed the anger in his chest and said in a low voice: "30 prisoners in exchange for Ted, which was what you agreed with our envoy last night!"
"Is it possible that your messenger misremembered it? I have always requested 50 prisoners."
Damn it! What a greedy Noxian bastard!
Seeing Prescott's fearless look, Jarvan IV couldn't help but frown, but then relaxed and sneered.
"According to our scouts' investigation, your team is 5 kilometers away from the main force where you set up camp.
"There are only 50 of you in this village, and the ones I've come with to this meeting are the Fearless Vanguards. Do you think you have a chance of defeating us?
"Besides, compared to Ted, it seems that you and the seemingly powerful person beside you are more valuable to Demacia.
"I believe that Ted would be happy to sacrifice himself for Demacia and allow me to capture you."
Prescott narrowed his eyes, paused, and said, "You wouldn't do that, Prince Jarvan IV."
