LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

Two minutes later.

Under the anxious and crazy eyes of those slave workers, Renata was taken up into the sky by Li Wei and disappeared from their sight.

After another minute, I don't know what happened during the period.

Renata followed Li Wei again, and a pink-haired girl flew back from the sky.

As soon as she fell back to the ground, she said to the slave laborers who were emotional and eager to protect their master: "Everyone, put down your weapons."

"I have reached a cooperation with Mr. Li Wei and the Association of Leaders."

"From now on, this Mr. Levi will be my best friend and an important investor in our Golask industry. Besides me, you must also fully obey his orders."

Li Wei was still an enemy who fought to the death with Renata just now, and in the blink of an eye, Renata was promoted to the number two member of the gang after her.

This is clearly problematic.

If it was in a normal Zaun gang or Piltover family, the leader suddenly gave such a serious betrayal of the group's interests in front of his subordinates, it would be called an unimaginable and perverse order...

Even if the gang cadres or family members did not "kill the Li thief and the Qing emperor's side" on the spot, they would probably have to "this is a random order, and I will not be called."

No matter how bad it is, at least some people will voice their doubts.

But Golask Industries is not a normal enterprise at all.

Renata used mind control potions to turn everyone into soulless pawns, absolutely loyal game control units.

This led to no one in the group questioning her decision when something went wrong with her "player".

The slave workers who had shouted at Li Wei earlier, when Renata said this, immediately regarded Li Wei as the talker of the group second only to Renata herself.

And Renata quickly summoned the senior management of the group, the gang cadres, and the person in charge of R\u0026D, and repeated the same tricks to give orders to the core figures of the Golask industry one by one...

It didn't even take a lot of effort. This giant mining, chemical, and medical business with tens of thousands of loyal employees just changed its owner so lightly.

And Golask Industries is much richer than the Iron Fist Gang, which is glamorous and domineering on the surface, but is actually just a chaebol wage earner.

Renata's business spans across the Shuangcheng, and its business projects include mineral mining, ore refining, alchemy and pharmaceuticals, perfumes and cosmetics, entertainment clubs, underground banks... The working capital plus fixed assets it owns is a terrifying astronomical figure.

The leader has picked up a big gift bag from heaven.

But Li Wei can't care about being happy about getting rich now.

What he cares most about right now is:

"Will those brainwashed slave workers recover?"

The Gorask industry has been secretly controlled by Li Wei, and he will soon be able to physically liberate these slave workers.

But their spirit is still not free.

Without free will, true faith cannot be born.

Li Wei can only harvest more than 10,000 obedient robots, not the comrades who fought side by side with him.

So he is very concerned: "Can an antidote be developed to bring these brainwashed people back to normal?"

"There is hope, but not much." Renata replied honestly.

"Over the years, I have recruited alchemists, set up a research and development center, and continuously researched and improved the formula of the medicine, all in order to improve its 'reliability'."

Renata originally planned to use this mind control potion to dominate the two cities.

To do such a big thing, of course, the potion cannot be just a random alchemist who can develop an antidote after a few days of research.

If the potion is so easy to crack, wouldn't her ambition become a joke?

"At least, the alchemy scientists of our Gorask industry will definitely not be able to develop an antidote in a short period of time. In the long run, this antidote may not be able to guarantee successful development."

The team of scientists of Gorask Industry is already the top team of alchemists in the two cities that Renata has collected from Zaun and Piltover through all means over the years.

If even they can't guarantee to develop an antidote, then the day when the antidote will come out is really far away.

"Salafini, can you do anything?"

Science is unreliable, and Li Wei can only think of it from the side of magic.

Seraphine was already amazingly talented, and now she has another goddess as her teacher.

After more than a month of training and tempering, she has become an extraordinary spiritual mage.

But after Seraphine tried to treat several brainwashed slave laborers, she shook her head helplessly:

"No, I can't do it either. These people's brains...seem to be physically altered by drugs."

"I can temporarily awaken their souls, but I cannot permanently restore their free will."

"Perhaps..." Seraphine added with some hesitation: "When my magic becomes stronger, there will be a way."

"Okay." Levi sighed.

Is there really no way to save these people?

"Maybe..." Renata thought of something: "There is a person who may have a way to develop an antidote."

"He is the most talented alchemist in Shuangcheng. The wisdom of a single person is better than my talented R\u0026D team. I once wanted to 'invite' him to cooperate with me, but he refused."

The "invitation" Renata spoke of was never a gentle invitation.

The alchemist had the ability to refuse her invitation, and he didn't die because of it, so he obviously had real skills.

"You're talking about..." Renata didn't need to announce her name.

After hearing "the most talented alchemist", a voice popped out of Li Wei's mind immediately:

Shake it...cough cough...

In short, Li Wei may know that person, and Vice President Victor is more familiar with him.

Because he was Victor's former teacher:

"Alchemist, Singed?"

...................................

Li Wei was not in a hurry to find Singed, let alone stayed in Golask Industry for a long time.

After he and Seraphine took over the control of Golask Industry, they flew back to Piltover with Renata, Zeli, Chuck, and dozens of slave laborers who hadn't been brainwashed.

because...

"Li! Wei!" Renata woke up halfway through the flight, while they were still in the sky.

Although Seraphine is a spiritual mage, she is not specialized in mind control spells.

Her mind control ability is temporary, and the control time will fluctuate to varying degrees according to her own magic strength and the target's mental power strength.

In short, with Seraphine's current strength, she can control Renata for 2 or 3 hours at most.

But in just a few hours, the huge foundation that Renata had accumulated over decades of hard work fell into Li Wei's hands so lightly.

"Li Wei!" Renata stared at Li Wei as soon as she woke up.

"Are you awake?" Li Wei returned her a mocking smile: "How is it, does it feel good to be brainwashed?"

Renata's face was extremely ugly.

Of course it doesn't feel good to be brainwashed, but...

"She doesn't feel guilty at all." Seraphine told Levi helplessly: "I 'heard'... She is regretting, but she is not blaming and introspecting for her actions, but for her failure. Annoyed and angry."

Renata's inner voice was exposed mercilessly by her.

Instead of feeling embarrassed, Kerenata admitted bluntly: "The strong prey on the weak is the natural law of Zaun. I only lost because I was weak, not because I did something wrong."

"Heh, Li Wei... didn't you all defeat me through brainwashing?"

"That's different." Li Wei had a clear conscience: "We are here to save people."

"If you hadn't threatened me with those 10,000 lives, I would never have allowed Seraphine to use her abilities to control others."

"because..."

"Because you're stupid!" Renata sneered, "With such a convenient ability, why not use it?"

As she said that, she still tempted Li Wei like the demon river king who feeds on human greed:

"Li Wei, now you not only have this chick who can sing, but also my mind control potion."

"think about it--"

"The combination of her ability and my potion can capture everyone in the two cities without hindrance!"

"You don't need any hard work at all, as long as you use my potion, no matter if it's a rich merchant in Piltover or an alchemy baron in Zaun...they will all kneel at your feet and bow down to you!"

Renata knew that it was impossible for her to get out of control.

She didn't mean to expect Li Wei to let her go when she said these words.

For some reason, she was eager to see Li Wei, an idealist full of benevolence and morality, this innocent and stupid saint like her parents...

To see him, irresistibly tempted, take up her weapon, carry on her cause, and become a second Renata Gorask.

Although this is of no benefit to Renata today.

But she just wanted to see how Li Wei struggled to choose in the face of interests.

Unfortunately, Li Wei didn't struggle at all.

He simply replied: "No, I refuse!"

Do brainwashing potions work? Of course it works.

At least those merchants in Piltover with mortal bodies and alchemy barons with limited mental power will not have any resistance in front of it.

If, as Renata said, the combination of mind control potions and Seraphine's abilities, the leader's career can indeed develop by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

"However, that would destroy our foundation - faith!"

The greatest weapon of the leader is always thought.

If you take shortcuts for short-term gain and taint your pure faith, it will be self-defeating in the long run.

"do you know?"

"There are already businessmen in Piltover who are unhappy with the leader, and they are secretly spreading rumors that we are lunatics who have been brainwashed and controlled by magic."

"Even many citizens have begun to believe this statement—otherwise, how could people be completely selfless and do good deeds without asking for anything in return?"

Levi stated a fact that Renata did not yet understand:

"The enemy is desperately trying to discredit the leaders, stigmatize our beliefs as brainwashed controls, and stigmatize the leaders as brainwashed humanoid machines."

"Because they're scared."

"What they are afraid of is our thoughts, our beliefs, our noble and pure spirit."

"Since this is the case, then how could I follow the enemy's wishes and use brainwashing methods to control others for a little profit, and won this disgraceful victory?"

Although brainwashing is useful, it is definitely a crooked way.

If the leader uses this method to deal with others, his own belief may have to collapse first.

Worse, this will leave everyone with a "shortcut" thinking inertia.

Since brainwashing can be done for the sake of profit, can we also engage in economic colonization, plundering of resources, interference in other countries' internal affairs, and invasion of other countries' territories for profit?

If even these things can be done, then what is the difference between Leader and Noxus?

Faith is gone, and the foundation business is too large, and it will collapse.

"If we did—"

"That's the real loss."
