Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Seeing Bao Bao and Ike leaving together, Lux finally let out a long breath.

During this period of time, Kalya has been teaching Bakubo and letting her learn to control Jinx, so naturally there is no sword around Lux.

Lux, who was used to having Kalya by her side and without a sword, seemed to be missing something no matter what she was doing, and her whole body was full of discomfort.

Now, Bao Bao has finally finished the first period of training. When Lux takes back her sword and holds the hilt, this familiar feeling makes her feel comfortable all over.

Then, Lux heard Karya's familiar voice again.

"Our poor little Lux must miss me, right?"

...Give me back my emotion.

"Not really." Lux rolled her eyes and answered extremely quickly, "On the contrary, I feel quieter recently."

"Really?" Kalya said in a subtle tone, "Are you sure you are feeling peaceful and not troubled?"

"What do I have to worry about?" Lux pretended to be relaxed, "I don't have to carry a sword all day, no one is nagging in my ears, and I don't need to consider some people's big plans... Why should I worry? "

"Really?" Kalya said in a longer tone, "I remember clearly that in the beginning, without my supervision, you simply couldn't stay in the office and work honestly."

"I'm just getting used to it now." Lux was still insisting, "I can't help it, I'm different from some people who just want to hide away for free under the pretext of teaching students!"

"This is not leisure." Hearing this, Kalya said with a little helplessness, "Your junior sister is very talented, but it is too difficult to teach... Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really don't understand, how can you have such a cute explosion? How about giving birth to a Jinx personality?”

"So, she can control Jinx now?" Lux said with a little curiosity, "You said that Jinx's destructive power is amazing, and now you explode it back, which means she succeeded Already?"

"Absolutely." Kalya sighed, "Thanks to you and Ino for helping to provide so many rune tablets for magic circuits. With my unremitting efforts to deflect, Blast temporarily overwhelmed Jinx. .”

"Exaggerating?" Kalya's words made Lux a little confused, "What do you mean?"

"Literally!" Kalya said calmly, which stunned Lux, "The battle between personalities is just like ordinary people fighting and pulling each other's hair - under fair circumstances, Bakuba cannot beat Jinke at all. Si, but in my world, I have the final say in the rules."

Hearing this, Lux couldn't help but cover her face.

Sure enough, what Kalya said next was exactly what she thought.

In the simulation training, Blast's first stage task is to learn to completely suppress Jinx, and the best way to do this is to let her and Jinx fight one-on-one.

Because Blast had no combat power at all at the beginning and was no match for Jinx, so this duel was naturally set up by Kalya to be an asymmetrical duel.

In this way, Bao Bao "defeated" Jinx many times and gradually figured out some ways to control Jinx.

With this step-by-step training and victory after victory, Blast quickly became familiar with the feeling of fighting Jinx, and found his key advantage as a master personality-later, even if Kalya decreased Despite her duel advantage, the winner is still explosive.

At the same time, during the rest and summary of the battle, Kalya will also give lectures to Bakuo to build a more complete world view and outlook on life for her.

Although logic and ideals cannot solve the split between Blast and Jinx, they can at least make Blast strengthen himself.

With this two-pronged approach, Blast was finally able to stabilize Jinx even without Kalya's help.

And this also means that the first phase of Blast's mission has been successfully completed.

After training and attending classes day and night for so long, Kalya simply gave her a holiday and asked her to go home and find her family and friends to consolidate the results of this stage through family and friendship. That's why Ai was born. Ke comes over and takes Bakubo back to this scene.

"So, Bao Bao has no problem now?" After listening to Kalya's description, Lux finally nodded, "Looking at her... she is indeed a lot more relaxed, at least the dark circles on her face are gone. Gone."

"However, this is just the beginning." Kalya added, "There will be second and third stages of training in the follow-up. Biaobao can only suppress Jinx now, and she still needs to find a way to get along with Jinx on her own. The right way, I will guide her to use Jinx's power when the time comes - for now, let's talk about you."

"Me?" Suddenly hearing Kalya mentioning herself, Lux froze on the spot, "What's wrong with me? I'm fine..."

"Yes, you are very good, so good that you are almost becoming a primitive god." Kalya said angrily, "What the hell, I have only left you for less than a month, and you have already developed supernatural powers - I am Should I say that you have won the hearts of Zaun, or that you are slow to react?"

"God, God, God... divine power?!" Lux's eyes widened in astonishment, "How can there be divine power? Are you kidding me, Kalya!"

"I'm very familiar with this divine power thing. I'm not joking with you." Kalya said firmly, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Janna - when she first gave birth to her own memory, she was in a similar state to you now."

"I'm in great shape!"

"Yes, it's very good. I don't need to eat very much. I feel energetic after taking a short rest every day. I am very concerned about everything about Zaun, no matter how big or small. I am also very good at spell training..." Every time Kalya said something, Lax said A bit embarrassed, "That's how divine power is, everyone who uses it feels good about themselves."

"You told me before that Janna voluntarily gave up her identity as the Patron Saint of Zaun?" Lux hesitated for a moment, then said, "Is there any problem with this kind of divine power you mentioned?"

"Of course there is." Kalya sighed, "Divine power is a good thing, but if it is not controlled, the result will be that it will be wrapped up in faith, and eventually divinity will overwhelm humanity."

"do not understand."

"This can be considered my personal experience." Kalya said helplessly, "Sometimes, divinity is no different from the Azarkana Demon - it can easily make people fall into paranoia."

"Paranoid?"

"For example, take your current state." Kalya gave an example. "We will call it the God of Zaun... At the beginning, you just had more energy and strength to work. This seems to be a good thing. You No problems were found.”

"..."

"Then, you began to have a strong desire for Zaun to become better and safer, but Zaun is too small and many things are not produced here at all. What do you think we should do?"

“Sign a trade agreement and import products?”

"That proves that you are still awake - initially, but as you become stronger and stronger, you will be more inclined to simply let the place where these things are produced become part of Zaun."

"!!!"

"This happens to many Ascended people in Shurima." Kalya noticed Lux's shock. "Even though the Ascended Order has banned the Ascended people from interfering in government affairs, it still cannot completely stop Shurima. The empire’s endless desire for expansion... Shurima’s expansion is not a bad thing, but this expansion still brings Shurima too many problems.”

Kalya didn't say much on the topic.

But Lux has clearly realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Then...should I leave Zu'an now?"

"Of course not." Sensing Lux's nervousness, Kalya laughed like a child who had succeeded in a prank, "Don't worry, I have been prepared for a long time - haven't you noticed that I have been there for a while? Didn’t I teach you how to learn magic?”

"What does this have to do with teaching me magic?"

"Divinity also needs a carrier. With your current level of magic and magic, divinity will not have a great impact on you." Kalya said in a pleasant tone, "While you are in good condition now, we can visit a real god. , I believe His state will give you a lot of inspiration."

"Then don't leave Zaun?" Lux said in disbelief, "But the joint cooperation experiment has just begun..."

"This is also for Zaun." Kalya looked confident, "Didn't Camille always say that we can provide the source of goods and they can provide transportation personnel to engage in Ionian trade?"

"She did hint at it during the last negotiation, but we didn't agree."

"Of course we can't agree, so why don't we find the source of the goods and let us handle the transportation manpower together?"

"Zuan doesn't have a port or ships?"

"But there is one in Bilgewater!"

"Wait a minute, you guys have quietly prepared another big plan?"

"It's not that big..."

Kalya’s Little Classroom · Divine Power and Divinity:

The birth of divine power may be related to faith, or it may be related to the core laws of Runeterra, but no matter what the reason is, the birth of divine power will make people (perhaps beasts, natural elves) affected by divinity.

There are two more chapters later today - next up is the Tides of Fire side quest in Bilgewater.
