Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 129 【0126】 Zu An’s Rebirth

The lingering Noxians finally found a chance to make a comeback in an extremely embarrassing way.

Lux knew nothing about this.

She is extremely busy right now.

Due to the blockade of Piltover and the shutdown of many alchemy factories in the past two days, more and more Zaun workers came to Fulgrim's Tavern, looking for some work.

In Fulgen's Tavern, it has become a daily routine to tell the story of "The Letter to the People".

More and more workers are hearing the story of the little boy and the golden hex.

There were many workers listening to the story, but not everyone was willing to believe an outsider for the first time, and not everyone knew who Lux was and what she had done.

But fortunately there are enough people in the tavern - even if it's just to buy a glass of water, there are still many people willing to introduce the new ones.

Those who can come to the tavern to find work are more or less foremen in Zaun. Although they can't find any jobs for the time being, they will at least bring Lux's name, stories, and theories back to those who work with them. , people who mine.

Although, like the time in Mithril City, the stories would always change as they were passed on, the question of where the money earned by these people who really worked went, was always passed on well.

In just three days.

While the Piltover Council was still wrangling, and before Singed prepared his own secret weapon against the constructs, more than a third of Zaun's workers, miners, and craftsmen had heard about Lux. name.

From the perspective of popularity, she has even vaguely caught up with Fandel!

Three days is not a long time.

It was enough to shut down Zaun's alchemy factories and mines, which were highly dependent on exports.

It was enough to bring the Zuan people, who had little savings to begin with, to the brink of food shortage.

It was enough to make a fortune for Zaun's food suppliers, who were backed by Lady Piltover.

It was enough for the caravan sent to Kumangla in advance to return to Zu'an quickly with the first batch of food.

During this period, all the gangsters who were spying on Fulgen's Tavern were left in the tavern - either tied up or frozen, and all stuffed into the basement.

At first, the alchemy barons thought this was Fandel's revenge for spreading rumors and snooping into the tavern.

However, the news cannot be hidden after all.

Jin Hex allowed the Alchemy Barons to finally figure out the situation - after buying a few people, they finally knew what the workers in Forgan's Tavern were spreading.

Then, an unspeakable panic filled their hearts.

When Fandel led the team to rush to the Sun Gate, the workers had not yet realized the role played by the Alchemist Baron in Zaun. The only ones who were really unlucky were a few of the most demanding guys under his command.

But this time, Lux calmly and truly revealed the nature of the Alchemy Baron. Even though these Alchemy Barons had never seen Lux, they still felt like a light on their backs.

No, we can’t let these messages continue to spread!

At least... we can't let Forgan's Tavern continue to be a distribution center for workers to take jobs!

Realizing that the problem was not good, the alchemy barons turned their attention to Finn, because among them all, only Finn was trying to form a new middleman base.

Unfortunately, their response was too slow.

Before these alchemist barons could come up with an effective plan, Fulgen's Tavern was ready to take the next step.

……………………

Forgan's Tavern, morning.

Workers today still have little work to do.

While they are waiting for a job, they are also trying to get in touch with each other, hoping to borrow some money or something like that - everyone's family is a little bit troubled.

However, unlike the previous two days, no one came to read the "Message to the People of Zuan" today. Instead, Lux, who had only appeared at night to answer questions, appeared in the tavern early this time.

Everyone still has many questions, but at this time, all questions have to give way to "what do we eat" - under the influence of hunger, many people began to doubt the correctness of Lux's theory, because there is no Alchemy Baron. , they have no work and cannot support themselves and their families.

Previously, when faced with this problem, Lux had to explain the reasons for all this from the beginning.

But today, things are different.

The first group of people who went to Kumangla came back today, and in addition to the news that they had "found a merchant who can provide large quantities of food", they brought back the first batch of food.

The gold supported by Sona's friendship was exchanged for more than three hundred tons of grain, as well as the necessary vehicles and pack horses to transport the grain.

After three days of arduous trek, the team finally returned to Zaun.

Because the passage from Kumangla to Zuan has been almost completely abandoned, the transportation of this batch of grain is extremely difficult. Among the twenty people led by Bensuo, two of them stayed between Kumangla and Zuan forever— —They lost their footing in an accident while crossing the mountains, and even the body was not found.

But it's worth it in the end.

These grains, plus the portion purchased from Finn, are enough to support Zaun through the most difficult period!

The trade route has been opened again, and there will be an endless supply of food in the future!

Therefore, Lux did not need to answer with words this time.

Watching the grains being delivered to the back of the tavern and watching the three large stacks of granaries being erected, everyone present cheered. They all looked at Lux, waiting for her to announce the order to distribute the grains.

However, Lux did not immediately announce the release of food. Instead, she pressed the hilt of her sword, stood on the makeshift platform, and asked a question.

"Does Zuan only need food?"

Of course not—or, never has been.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. At first they just shook their heads silently or said vaguely no.

So, Lux raised her tone and asked again:

"Does Zuan only need food?"

The crowd's voices became much more uniform.

"no!"

"no!"

Lux took a deep breath, and then spoke for the third time in her loudest voice:

"Does Zuan only need food?"

This time, the response to her was the roar of everyone present.

"no--"

If it were before, everyone would only know it was not the case, but not know why it was not the case.

But now, everyone present, even if there are some more and some less, have finally understood what Zaun still needs.

"Now, I have found food, enough food to temporarily fill the stomachs of all Zaun people." Lux grabbed a handful of green wheat and showed the wheat grains in her hands, "But it is not enough! Zaun needs more. The people of Zaun have the right and the right to take back the fruits of their hard work!"

The crowd fell silent, everyone raised their heads and looked at Lux.

"Now, I want to go to the alchemy factory!" The breeze carried Lux's voice clearly to everyone's ears, "Go and take back those factories that the Zaun people worked hard to build, and hand them over to the builders." It, in the hands of the person who uses it!”

Although they were vaguely mentally prepared, everyone present could not help but widen their eyes when they heard Lux ​​say this.

"The Alchemist Baron thought that he could continue to exploit villains and thugs for a long time. He thought that as long as the profits were distributed to Piltover, no one would dare to resist." Lux unsheathed his sword, and above the broken sword, there was an extremely bright light. and the midday sun, "But they were wrong!"

Everyone's breathing began to quicken.

"Zunan belongs to the people of Zaun, to those who created this city, and to those who sweated for this city!" Lux raised the broken blade high, "And today, those who try to steal this achievement will eventually Completely crushed!"

The next moment, above the broken sword, a beam of light suddenly surged into the sky!

"Those who are willing to come with me, show your right arm and let's go together!"

With that said, Lux took off the armor on her right arm neatly, jumped off the podium, and rushed straight towards Zu'an, towards her first target.

It was an ore refining plant.

Everyone in Forgan's Tavern quickly followed her, some hesitated for a moment, and then hurried home with their right arms exposed - they were not trying to escape, but to call more people. People come here!

The team behind Lux ​​is just like behind Fander when they rushed towards the Sun Gate...

No, it should be said that this team is far superior to the team that Fandel rushed to the Sun Gate!

Maybe those who rushed towards the Sun Gate were more capable and stronger.

But at this time, the team behind Lux ​​is far more determined than the team that only acted with blood!

Their purpose was not to "teach the Pilgrim guys a lesson" or "make them dare not look down on Zaun."

Their goal is to get back what belongs to them.

Nothing is more justified and justified than this.

Walking in the streets of Zaun, every time Lux, who bared her right arm, passed through a block or passed an intersection, the team behind her would become longer and stronger.

When she finally arrived at her destination, behind her, the Zaun people with their bare right arms had formed an astonishingly long queue - they might only be carrying hammers and wrenches, maybe most of them were malnourished, and some even Never had a fight before.

But at this moment, they all chose to follow Lux, follow her to surround the factory, and follow her to face the thugs they had never dared to face.

Under everyone's gaze, Lux raised the broken sword in her hand.

A stream of light flashed past, and the tightly closed, heavy black door collapsed.

People wearing boots, cloth shoes, straw sandals, no shoes, prosthetics and crutches... countless pairs of "feet" stepped over it.

In the next battle, Lux no longer needs to take action.

Looking at the cheering crowd, looking at the embarrassed thugs, and sheathing her sword, Lux leaned against the wall of the factory, and finally a smile appeared on her face that had been tense.

"Kalya, I did it." Lux clenched the hilt of the sword, "I really did it - I changed this city, I did not use the power of the nobles, nor did I use the threat of violence!"

"But this is just the beginning." Kalya's tone was as calm as ever, "But as far as the beginning is concerned, you did... very well."
