Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

Jace put down the hammer in his hand and looked at Mel for help.

Mel was standing on the edge of the practice field at the moment, looking helpless in the eyes of Jess for help.

"Irona, bring that new thing from Jace's lab."

Her butler in Piltover had just returned to Noxus the past two days to give her a report on what was going on there.

"Yes!"

Elona walked out respectfully.

She's had a lot less work lately.

After the adult left, the Shuangcheng ushered in a long-lost peace.

Although the two sides have frictions from time to time, the focus is generally on development.

Both sides are holding back their strength in their hearts. One side wants to keep the current prosperity, and the other side wants to prove that it will be better without the other side.

On the stage, Victor started his new round of presentations:

"The Hex planter can grow ordinary plants in the desert, and the most important thing is to improve the soil and water..."

"..."

After introducing the third product, he glanced at Jace lightly, as if a little disappointed and a little regretful.

He didn't stop for a long time, and then continued to introduce his design:

"Hex air purifiers that absorb industrial waste and refresh the environment..."

"Hex tower crane, used to make high-rise transportation materials..."

"Hex cleaning robots, programmed to save mechanized work in some households..."

"..."

Pieces of Hextech derivatives were pulled out by a slightly smaller mechanical body and placed next to Victor, who would introduce them one by one.

"Professor Victor, are these only for people's livelihood?"

A young craftsman wearing goggles swallowed and stared at the machine behind Victor in a stunned manner.

He didn't mean anything else, he just liked the big killers used on the battlefield.

If he could design one of Viktor's products, he would be worth his whole life.

"Battlefield? The power of Hextech is more suitable for low-end battlefields. Skye, help me get the No. 31 Hex sample." Victor said.

The smaller mechanical body paused, and hesitantly said:

"However, it has just gone through the third round of testing, and you haven't improved it yet."

"It's okay, it's still a half-finished product after all. There's someone else here who knows Hex, and he might be able to offer some advice."

Victor's voice was a little different, as if looking forward and at the same time mocking.

After the gradual mechanization, he did not lose all emotion.

Although not as completely reserved as Orianna, the emotion about something has become an obsession.

But the chaotic emotions were only generated for a moment, and they were quickly suppressed by him, and he turned to the students below and continued:

"You probably all have previous experience in repairing machinery and inventing, but there are some basic principles of Hex development that you must know first. Science is never something that can be created with a slap of the forehead, it needs to go through countless improvements, revisions and deepening. dig."

Victor's eyes shone with Hex's rays, staring at everyone below, and said seriously:

"After you leave the college, I don't care what you want to do in the future, whether you become a politician or give up your identity as a scientist. But remember not to forget the original intention, and do not forget the joy of making Hex products for the first time."

Ignoring the reaction of the students and someone, Victor looked at the boy who just asked him:

"Lucy, what's your dream?"

Lucky's face shook, and he said without hesitation:

"Make a big killer and take down Noxus' enemies!"

"Yes, remember your dream today, Lucky. You'll gain the knowledge to make Hex weapons here, and I hope to hear this answer from you again when you create your first Hex weapon." Victor nodded slightly.

"I will! I will! Professor Victor!"

Larch had a determined look in his eyes, his father was killed for Noxus, and his stern mother was a Noxian soldier.

The two of them had been admonishing him since childhood to be useful to Noxus.

"Nice look!"

Victor's steel-covered face couldn't see any expression, but he could hear satisfaction in his tone.

"I've made quite a few hex weapons, like the hex claw on my shoulder. It was originally made for craftsmen to carve, but now it's a weapon of war."

"Today is not suitable for showing large hex weapons, but in the future you will hear their stories on the battlefield..."

Before Victor could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Jace on the other side:

"Victor, you..."

"Call me Professor Victor!" Victor interrupted again with a flat voice.

"Okay, Professor Victor... do you really make a lot of lethal weapons?"

"That's right," Victor asked indifferently. "Associate Professor Jess, are you still basking in the comforts of the past? Or have you given up your identity as Piltover?"

"I..."

Jace opened his mouth, a little weak.

But then he felt that he was right again, and said a little stiffly:

"I can make the most powerful defense system, and no one can break the defense of Piltover!"

Of course he understood what Victor meant.

After seeing the magnificent world, he had to admit in his heart...

It wouldn't surprise him at all if Piltover was destroyed one day by an impromptu blow from a wizard.

In order to deal with possible surprises, they must plan ahead.

But he never thought that Piltover had to show his fangs, and having the strongest protection could also protect his hometown.

At this time, Irona happened to push a car in.

"He's so cool!"

Larch looked at the contents of the cart and muttered to himself.

An exquisite white-blue full-body armor was draped on the doll of the cart, and a hex gemstone was inlaid on the chest of the armor, exuding a bright light.

When Jace saw his work coming, he could not help straightening his back:

"Hex armor, made of silver and steel!"

"The magic conductivity of silver steel is too weak, so it is better to use cloud ink directly." Victor commented, "I would like to take the liberty to ask, have you smashed this armor with a hammer?"

"Uh... not that." Jace was slightly embarrassed.

The armor is a product that he rushed out of work. He recently stayed at Mel's house. He has a lot of things to do, and he really can't get enough energy.

"really..."

Victor shook his head regretfully.

"What's wrong? I don't think there is a problem with this design!" Jace said in disbelief.

Although he himself knew that the armor couldn't stop the hammer, it was a full body armor.

Not only body parts, but also boots and helmets. He used an ingenious method to tie everything together, all energized by Hexites.

After wearing it, it can not only provide a good defense, but also can accelerate the march as light as a swallow, and even automatically activate the shield that protects the whole body.

This is enough for ordinary soldiers.

"Jess, don't you understand, there is something wrong with our original design concept. I thought you could see that after being a member of parliament for a year." Victor said with dissatisfaction.

"I don't think there is a problem, it's just that we stood too high and didn't popularize technology." Jace frowned slightly.
