Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 421 【0417】 The Insect of the Noble Council

Before Peter could return to the Crownguard Manor, Lux trotted all the way back to her bedroom.

Ino was already waiting for her here, and was obviously relieved to see Lux back.

"How's it going?" Ino spoke first, "The preliminary preparations on Silas' side have been completed. What about the Colossus of Justice outside the city?"

"Gario's situation is much more complicated than I thought." Lux could only briefly describe the matter of starting a new business for Galio. "Once there is any movement in the Forbidden Prison, Galio will take action, but Because the magic power is not enough, I'm afraid it needs to be recharged - the two of us are too conspicuous, so Sona should be asked to come by then."

"But I'm afraid Sona's magic power alone is not enough." Enos thought, "From your description, Galio is simply a bottomless pit."

"Just make it take off once." Lux took the sword from Ino's hand and carried it around her waist, "Or prepare a magic circuit that absorbs the forbidden magic stone in the city wall - this can be done Are you here, Teacher Kalya?”

"Impossible, the flow of magic power in the Forbidden Demon Stone spreads from high to low." Kalya directly rejected this method, "The Forbidden Demon Stone that allowed Galio to come into contact with the city wall of the capital is more likely to be the remaining magic power in his body. The magic power is introduced into the city wall, and the magic power in the Forbidden Demon Stone can be mobilized and used, but it is difficult to transfer it to another Forbidden Demon Stone."

"This is troublesome." Lux smacked her lips, "If you don't rely on Galio to solve the problem, it will be difficult to convince the noble council that magic is controllable..."

"Although the magic power within the city wall is difficult for Galio to mobilize, there are good things over there from the Silent People!" Hearing what Lux said, Ino smiled. "Teacher Kalya and I discovered the world runes from the Silent People. fragments, and they are specially processed world rune fragments."

"World Rune?!" Lux's eyes widened in shock, "If I remember correctly, the Silent Man's station is located in the Forbidden Demon Prison?"

"Yes, deep underground." Ino nodded, "So, deep under our feet, there is a fragment of the world's rune hidden."

"If the world runes are so dangerous, wouldn't the entire Demacian capital be sitting on a powder keg?" Lux's expression suddenly became serious, "What are the Silent People doing?"

"The Silent People are keeping this dangerous power." Ino replied, "According to them, the World Runes once brought a lot of trouble to Demacia, so they carefully preserve the World Runes. , can only mobilize a very limited amount of energy escaping from the world's runes - but even the escaping energy has created a large number of forbidden magic stones full of magic in the Silent Man's secret treasure."

"So, you are saying that you can use these forbidden magic stones to temporarily charge Galio?" Lux said suddenly, "Wait, have they done this before?"

"Yes, one of the important tasks of these Silent Men is to provide Galio with fragments of the forbidden magic stone to activate his ability to move." Ino continued, "As long as Galio can move freely for a few minutes, he can During the enemy's confrontation, draw the magic power for your own use until the battle is over and the magic power is exhausted."

"It would be great if we could get the Silent People to release the Forbidden Magic Stone." Lux quickly understood the meaning of Ino's suggestion, "This represents the Silent People's attitude!"

"Yes, Teacher Kalya said so too, and judging from Grandma Ling's attitude, she seems to think so too." Ino nodded, "While suppressing the Illuminati, we must also show the position of the silent person, and we must not let They wait until the situation is determined before enjoying the results!"

Just as the two little girls were exchanging today's gains, light footsteps came from the corridor, and then a servant knocked on the door of the bedroom.

"Miss, madam invites you to have a meal in the small restaurant."

"Got it!" Lux responded, tearing off her cloak at the same time, "I'll be here soon."

With Ino's help, a moment later, the little princess-like Lux came to the small restaurant gracefully.

"Come on, Lux." Ogesha saw Lux in aristocratic uniforms, and she liked it. "Sit next to mom - eat first!"

……………………

In the small restaurant, the four of them, Peter, Ogesha, Tiana and Lux, finished their meal in silence.

In fact, the Crown Guard family often has few rules internally. Neither Peter nor Ogesha are people who abide by the rules. When Jecca was there, they were even less formal. Even Tiana, who is the most rule-abiding, treats her family very badly. I never put on a "Sir, please sit down" attitude.

However, at today's dinner, even though Ogesha tried hard to liven up the atmosphere, the air around the table seemed to be so heavy that it was hard to breathe. It seemed that everyone was preoccupied.

Finally, as if there was a tacit understanding, the four of them ended their meal at the same time.

Instead of calling the servant to clear the table, Ogesha sighed helplessly, got up and closed the door of the small restaurant.

"Speak up if you have something to say. What's not good to say to your family?" As if talking to herself, Ogesha was the first to speak in the quiet restaurant, "Do I still have to hold it at home? "

As she said that, Ogesha looked at her husband and raised her eyebrows.

"Ogesha...Oh, this matter is more troublesome than I thought." Sensing his wife's silent threat, Peter could only bite the bullet and look at his daughter, "About your identity authentication, the silence within the Illuminati Someone will help confirm it. You need to get up early tomorrow. After confirming it, I will take you to the Noble Council."

"This is what it should be." Lux nodded, without any surprise on her face, "Why does father look a little pessimistic?"

"Those guys in the Noble Council are not easy to talk to." Peter said with gritted teeth. "When they heard that you were back, they were all scared to death. They were afraid that like Tariq, you would not recognize your relatives and go directly to the Illuminati; but after knowing After you and Tariq are different, they turn around and say, 'Since we are all climbers, we should treat them equally' and so on... What a bunch of insects!"

Pete, who was born as a warrior, obviously couldn't see this kind of double-dealing behavior. In his opinion, these nobles were clearly thinking about themselves. When they discovered that Tariq's return might give the Illuminati an opportunity, they all felt like mourning and learned about Lark. After Izuku came back, his face was even more ashen; but when he realized that Lux and Tarik were different, he changed his tune and used the aristocratic rules to control Lux and let her directly conflict with Tarik.

Good guy, you really do nothing but take advantage of everything. How can you manage Demacia well with these insects?

However, as a great nobleman of Demacia, Peter could not object to this kind of behavior - all his power came from this order. Even if he found the behavior of these nobles disgusting, he could not stand against it. .

Under this situation, he even used his personal reasons and his identity as a father for the first time, hoping to obtain a more secure condition for Lacus and not let Lacus take the initiative to face Tariq's pressure.

Although Peter doesn't understand magic, he thinks that Tariq, who has no relatives, is stronger than Lux after all. In addition, the Illuminati will open his eyes to him. If Lux really steps up to challenge, then Lux will have no choice but to fight. No matter what, I can't hold on anymore.

On the Illuminati side, although the bishops of various dioceses usually had many conflicts, after Tariq returned, everyone was clear about it. Even the cardinal of Xiongdu Diocese was the first to step aside and give way to others.

As for the Noble Council, it would be a blessing if these insects could not hold back Lux!

Why was today's imperial meeting postponed until now?

It was because the king, the Crownguard family and the noble council could not reach a unified opinion on Lux's next identity.

Jarvan III and Peter stand together. Since Lacus and Tarik are going to compete, Lux must have a status that matches her.

Of course, regarding this matching status, Peter and Jarvan III also had different opinions - Jarvan III believed that Lux could be granted a new title and fief; while Peter believed that Lux should still be the Crown Guard. As a member of the family, he can expand the Crownguard family's fiefdom and grant Lux a military or government civil position.

And if Peter is considering family and family, and Jarvan III wants to split up the Crownguard family with a check and balance mentality, then on the side of the noble council, the noble gentlemen can be said to be playing "pay lip service without paying". To the extreme.

Want equal status?

Okay, I heard that the Illuminati wants to regard Tariq as a saint, so let’s recommend Lax as a model of nobility. Anyway, Miss Laxana has always abided by aristocratic etiquette, so we can give her a title. If you take the honorary title, you can even start a "Learn from Miss Laxana" activity!

If that's not enough...

There are a lot of artists in the capital recently. Everyone can spend some money together to hire people to paint and make sculptures, so that Miss Laxana's great achievements can be passed down to future generations!

This "very sincere" suggestion almost made Peter furious. If Tiana hadn't been there and reminded her brother to calm down, Peter might have really turned the table over in the noble council.

This is simply too much bullying!

You are worried that the Illuminati is fighting for power and needs Lacus to step forward; since Lacus has not yet come forward, you are going to restrict Lacus?

But the nobles also have something to say. There are only so many fiefdoms in Demacia now. If you have more territory, everyone will have less territory. Whose body will be cut off and who will not feel pain?

Moreover, you, Lux, are the climbers, and we are not, right?

Even though today's imperial meeting was over, when talking about this matter after returning home, Peter was still so angry that he even couldn't help but breathe heavily.

Beside him, Tiana always remained calm. After Peter briefly told what happened, she asked Lux ​​in a very calm tone.

"As the person involved, Lux, what do you think of this matter?"

Kalya’s Little Classroom and Demacia’s fiefdom are tense:

Because military merit can lead to fiefdoms, the fiefdoms in Demacia are very tense. At the beginning, the king could find reasons to clean up the nobles and vacate the cages for birds. But later, as the nobles united in the noble council, the king also became very nervous. It is difficult to directly reduce noble fiefs, and the result is that in the past hundred years, very few nobles have obtained fiefs.

Based on Taric's previous performance as the "Shield of Demacia", if this had happened two hundred years ago, he would have at least been able to obtain a fief of reasonable size, but now, he could only get a lucrative job in the capital.
