LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

Chapter 323 Riven’s Gamble

The tens of thousands of civilians in the camp were standing too densely.

Just this round of arrow rain could easily take away the lives of thousands of people.

In addition, those who ran out of control in panic and despair, trampled each other to death, pushed and fell into the water and drowned... The number of deaths caused by a round of arrow rain may be far greater than the number of missing arrows themselves. .

And even if Riven attacks Urgot with all her strength, it will still take a short period of time to kill him.

This short period of time was enough for the Noxian soldiers to fire several rounds of arrows and massacre the tens of thousands of civilians crowded in the camp. Not to mention, even if Urgot dies, the soldiers may not stop killing immediately.

They are here to kill, and they are here to save people. If everyone is almost dead, what's the point of their coming here?

We can't let the arrows fall, absolutely not.

This was Riven's instinctive thought.

"Wind Barrier!"

Riven waved her hand to summon a storm, erecting an invisible wall in the sky for people.

The airflow dispersed the rain of arrows, giving the civilians who were panicking under the rain of arrows a chance to breathe.

"Fire arrows, fire arrows!" But Urgot was not going to give them a chance to breathe.

While he was yelling crazily for his subordinates to continue firing arrows, he arrogantly waved his giant ax and took the initiative to kill Riven.

And Riwen was just as he guessed...

Because most of her divine power needs to be used to block the continuous rain of arrows for the civilians, Riven's power has been weakened a lot compared to before.

Moreover, this force is still declining at a terrifying speed with the existence of the huge wind wall.

The big sword collided with the giant axe. After several rounds of fighting, Riven, who had been crushing Urgot unilaterally, gradually showed signs of decline.

"Hahahaha." Urgot finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Huh...you still want them all?

You have such a loud tone, but this is all you have?

"You idiots who like to sympathize with the weak are so easy to deal with!" Urgot's giant ax kept slamming down on Riven, and the attack became more and more fierce.

After a few more moves, Riven's performance became even weaker.

Because at the same time, there were thousands of Noxian soldiers outside the battlefield, faithfully executing Urgot's orders and continuously shooting arrows at the civilians in the camp.

These arrows were all stopped by the wind wall.

But every time the wind wall is maintained for a period of time, every time it intercepts a wave of arrows, it takes a lot of Riven's divine power.

The less divine power is consumed, the less Riven has the strength to capture Urgot as quickly as possible and end the battle as quickly as possible.

This is undoubtedly a vicious cycle.

Riven is trapped in this vicious cycle, with Urgot constantly draining her strength and her hope of victory.

"President Orianna!" Zed flashed and wanted to come to support, but as soon as he showed up, he was stuck by the endless general's guards.

In desperation, he could only remind loudly: "Don't hesitate anymore——"

"Don't worry about those civilians, kill Urgot first!"

Feiya was silent for a while.

She clenched her fists and bit her lips to draw blood. But she finally shouted loudly: "President Orianna, give up..."

"We can't save everyone."

"This..." Master Yi's mouth moved slightly, but he was unable to speak.

This choice is cruel.

But sometimes, leaders have to make such difficult choices.

Leaders should be moral models, but they should not be immoral. A flawless person with a moral obsession will never succeed.

"President Orianna!" In the end, Master Yi had to surrender to reality.

Even the Wuji Swordsmen, who were the most sincere and simple-minded, now realized the necessity of this heavy choice.

"Give up, President Orianna!" Such a voice always echoed on the battlefield.

"No, don't..." The people in the camp panicked.

They knew that if the wind wall no longer guarded their heads, they would face inevitable death in the next second.

"Don't...don't give up on us." Such pleading came from the crowd.

"Lady Orianna." They hurriedly shouted the name they had just heard: "Don't give up on us!"

"That's enough!" Riven finally spoke.

She tried her best to get rid of the fight with Urgot, flew into the sky, flew in front of the continuous rain of arrows, and also flew into the eyes of tens of thousands of civilians.

"I didn't save you just so you could call me Sir. I didn't save you just to see you standing here, doing nothing, waiting for the savior to come."

Riwen's voice floated out on the wind and reached everyone's ears.

"You - you can save yourselves!"

"I..." The civilians were stunned for a moment.

They have no power, how can they save themselves?

In the supernatural world, there is no drama where the masses unite as one, rise up, and unite to defeat all powerful enemies.

This kind of thing simply doesn't hold true in Runeterra.

Like now...

Any soldier picked out from Urgot's regiment would be a tough man who could run ten kilometers without panting while wearing a hundred kilograms of armor.

Not to mention, there are many extraordinary warriors and many mages among them.

For these weak and weak farmers, even another million dollars would not be enough for them to kill them.

Therefore, Li Wei said in the article that leaders must mobilize the masses, but they must also protect the masses realistically.

The people of this world are indeed incapable of resisting oppression. You can't blame them for being timid.

Here, "no savior" is more like a political correctness insisted on by the leader. It means that the power of the goddess Janna comes from humans, so the savior of humans is naturally themselves.

But putting aside the theory of the leader, in reality many times, the weak need the strong to play the role of savior to save them from the fire and water.

"But you are not ordinary people." Riven said.

She shouted to everyone: "I know that there are people among you who have read the book of Wind Leader."

"Not just one or two, but many people. Thousands of people have read it."

In order to provide safety insurance for their lives, the residents of the Yipu River Basin have been studying "A Brief Introduction to Janna's Thoughts" frantically for the past 20 days.

This was discovered by Urgot's subordinates.

Zed had already brought this news back to Riven when he sneaked into the camp to collect intelligence.

So she knew that many of the tens of thousands of people present had read the book by the Leader.

"I don't know if you can understand the contents of the book."

"I don't know how many of you have developed faith in the goddess Janna and become our comrades."

"But I choose to believe in you." Riven shouted loudly: "I believe that many of you have already agreed with our ideals and have embarked on the same path as us."

"so..."

"Pray to the goddess Janna!"

"Show your faith and let the goddess grant you divine power!"

"This..." Yi, Jie, Feiya and the leaders were all stunned.

They finally understood what Riven was doing.

She was betting that enough of these tens of thousands of civilians had become believers of the goddess Janna.

If her bet fails...

"I'm sorry, everyone." Riven said, "Please forgive me for taking the risk and making this decision. If it fails, I will do my best to get everyone out of here safely..."

She knew that she was risking more than just her life. It belongs to comrades-in-arms and comrades.

So Riven felt a little guilty.

"No, no need to be sorry!" Feiya shouted loudly: "Orianna, you are the president!"

"We recognize you as the president and trust your decision!"

"And..." Feiya and the leaders looked at each other and said in unison: "Don't underestimate us, President!"

Riven made the right decision.

As long as the bet succeeds, she can save everyone. At least tens of thousands of deaths could be avoided.

"Even if you fail, wouldn't the worst result be death?"

"We are not afraid of death." These leaders, who are no more than one month old, have all been tempered into real warriors in bloody battles.

Facing this bloody battlefield, they all laughed out loud:

"Even if you die, it's nothing more than a journey into the spiritual realm."

"That's just right - we can set up a 'Leader's Spiritual Domain Branch' in the underworld and continue the struggle there!"

"Ha ha ha ha..."

The leader's laughter echoed across the battlefield.

Jie, Yi, the assassins of Shadow Stream, and the swordsmen of Wuji were all relieved in the laughter.

The leaders are willing to risk their lives and fight hard, so why not?

Then everyone laughed out loud.

Facing the increasingly dangerous battlefield situation, not only did they not have any fear, but they also discussed loudly with relish while fighting, whether they would be reincarnated into the legendary tomorrow or night in Ionia after death. .

"This..." Now it was Urgot's turn to be afraid.

Although he still has the upper hand, he has never been a coward who would be afraid of anything.

But somehow, looking at these guys who could die laughing, he was afraid.

Then...

Here comes the real fear.

Urgot was shocked to find that, accompanied by the hearty laughter of the leaders, what appeared on the battlefield was...

Wire.

More and more threads, thousands and thousands of threads.

Countless threads of faith, accompanied by people's prayers, were pulled out from the concentration camp that should have been filled with despair...

Ride the wind and go straight into the sky!

PS: As expected, this chapter is controversial... Some people think that it is right to sacrifice these people for the sake of safety; some people think that since there is a possibility of victory, it is reasonable to let the leader take a desperate gamble.

Leaders in reality need to face many such difficult choices. No matter which one you choose, there will be others who disagree.

Putting it in the book means that no matter how I write, another group of people will criticize me.

The best choice is not to write about it, and not to mention it from beginning to end.

So please don’t say that the plot of my book is too smooth and unrealistic... it’s too realistic and not suitable for appearing in online articles. Internet articles do not accept setbacks, but reality is full of ups and downs.

I was really stupid in this chapter. Sorry for affecting everyone’s reading experience.

If everyone has different opinions, don't quarrel with each other. This time the blame is mine. As a web article, this chapter is a failure. In the future, I won’t suffer from literary youth attacks and write such poisonous points again.
