Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

From the perspective of the nobles, Zwei's behavior is almost unreasonable.

The ban on demons is indeed Demacia's consistent national policy, and the demon-seekers are indeed professionals responsible for banning demons. Zwei's new appointment as the commander of the demon-seekers does require three talents for the new officer to take office - but this does not mean that This was the reason why he frantically ran directly to the noble's house to collect magic items.

It should be noted that in Demacia, the ban on magic policy mainly targets those infected with magic, not magic items.

According to Demacia's magic-forbidden logic, magicians are evil, and items contaminated with magic are no different from commonly used items as long as they are not used by magicians.

The main reason for the formation of this concept is not that the nobles wanted to open a back door for themselves from the beginning. The main reason is that if mages are regarded as a source of pollution and all items that may be contaminated with magic must be destroyed, then a random demon-contaminated person will wander around the capital. If you run around a certain city area, Demacia will demolish this part of the city itself.

Obviously, this kind of isolated magic ban is completely unrealistic, so from the very beginning, Demacia's idea of ​​banning magic has been very clear. It only pursues people, not objects, unless the magic items can be proven to "can make non-human beings" The devil uses magic" otherwise it will not be dealt with.

There is no doubt that when this judgment method was first proposed, it had a very positive practical significance. It could not only ban magic, but also prevent Demacians from being restrained or even destroying the city wall. It was a pretty good judgment.

However, magic items do not require food or drink. It is much more difficult to track down magic items than to catch those infected with demons.

"Allowing non-demon-possessed people to use magic" sounds very simple. It seems that just trying it on anyone will produce results, but in fact this is not the case - there are many magic items that can be used by non-demon-possessed people, but their use requires Some individual methods and tricks, if you don't know how to use them, they will look like ordinary magic items without danger.

As a result, a very large backdoor appeared.

Unlike a demon-contaminated person, who is almost unable to escape capture once discovered, even if a magic item is found to be contaminated with magic power, the demon-seeker has no power to deal with it.

Because the demon seekers cannot prove that these items with magical aura "can allow non-demon-infected people to use magic."

It is precisely for this reason that even though Demacia has always maintained a stance of banning magic, noble families with inheritance have also hoarded some magic items.

Like the great sword in Galen's hand.

Galen is not a demon-stained person, but when he uses this sword, he can activate the enchantment effect on it, which fully meets the standard of "allowing non-demon-stained people to use magic."

But except for Galen, it is difficult for others to activate the special effects of this great sword. Even if the magic seekers want to prove that this is a magic item that needs to be dealt with, there is no way to prove it.

This situation is not unique among nobles. Many families have even preserved a magical item with great power from time to time. It may be a weapon, armor, or other things such as amulets. These things are similar to Like Galen's great sword, it has extraordinary magical power, but it will not be confiscated by the magic seekers.

At the beginning, Silas insisted that the forbidden magic was the oppression of the common people by the nobles. This was largely due to this reason - as a member of the magic searchers, he had seen it on many nobles' estates, weapons and even accessories. All kinds of magic, but even so, he couldn't take away their magic items.

The nobles clearly knew about the existence of magic and even used it intentionally or unintentionally, but they were not punished in any way. On the contrary, civilians who did not use magic unintentionally were required to take magic-forbidden potions and suffered because of their natural contamination. To be exiled, or even imprisoned in a magic-forbidden prison...

Garen's ability to become the famous Demacia is indeed largely due to his hard training, but who can tell clearly how much proportion his sword plays in it?

When the civilians of Demacia relied on the hard-earned savings of three or four generations to purchase a set of equipment and a war horse for their most promising child, and sent him to the battlefield in the hope that he could make achievements, they were completely They didn't realize that the noble children who competed with their own children not only had advantages in nutritional conditions, physical fitness, fighting skills, etc., but they even had many magic items to "cheat" for them.

In this case, no matter how fair Demacia's military merit system is, it is destined that some people will be born in Rome, and some people will be born as mules.

The anti-magic system that was once born to protect the civilians of Demacia has gradually become a means for nobles to suppress civilians, quietly eroding military merit, the only avenue for advancement.

As the king of Demacia, Jarvan IV knew the truth clearly.

Therefore, with his support, Zwei, who was known as the mad dog, did not hesitate to light the first fire of the new official's appointment.

After making preparations, he returned to the Gotin family's fief for the first time in many years, and as the leader of the Demon Searchers, he confiscated almost all the magic items in his family.

Others don't know how to use these magic items...Zwei knows!

After demonstrating how these spears, swords, talismans, and armor "allowed non-demon-stained people to use magic," he did not hesitate to leave the Godin family's treasury almost empty, making his father faint on the spot. The scene can only be described as a loving father and a filial son.

However, the nobles who were supposed to be eating melon happily could no longer laugh.

Because everyone with a discerning eye has already seen that after Zwei's troubles, the Gotin family is almost finished from now on.

Having lost their family heritage, the Gotin family can only become wealthy locals from now on. When their descendants set foot on the battlefield, they will almost stand on the same starting line as the civilians.

There is no doubt that Zwei's behavior can no longer be described as a "mad dog". This behavior of the demon searcher touches the foundation of the nobility - the inheritance of status.

The nobles' ability to serve as masters for generations mainly relied on the huge branches supported by their fiefdoms. In addition, additional points such as heirlooms should not be underestimated.

If the magic searchers focus on the inherited items of each family in the future, don't use any shame to use magic appraisal on them like this time... I am afraid that few nobles can resist this kind of harassment.

It has only been quiet for a few years. Will His Majesty once again provoke a dispute between the nobles and the royal family?

The Parliament of the Nobles, which had been reduced to a face-saving project, once again experienced a rare scene of excitement. When it came to the fundamental issues of the nobility, even though Jarvan IV was in power, the nobles still had to work hard and never allow Mad Dog Ci to Will Wei continue to be so crazy!

Under such circumstances, Jarvan IV, who had not personally participated in the meeting before, rarely attended in formal attire.

Faced with the request of other nobles, "Although the Gotins are bastards, the devil-seekers who go to other people's houses to search the nobles' treasury at the slightest disagreement must be prohibited." Jarvan IV first expressed his sorrow. It seems that he is really sighing for the fall of the Godin family.

Then, he came up with a familiar mediation method and said, "The Godin family is an accident after all. The dignity and honor of the nobles are the dignity and honor of Demacia. If it is not a last resort, then the magic searcher will not choose Using such drastic measures."

It's better spoken than sung.

Even if they knew that Jarvan IV was lifting the roof, the nobles at the meeting could only nod in agreement, and then ask insinuatingly what the "last resort" was.

Satisfied with the acquaintance of the nobles, Jarvan IV happily said, "If the nobles cannot control the order in their fiefdoms, and the demon-tainted people cause any trouble, then the demon-hunters will have no choice but to track it down to the end." and so on. Then he added, "Of course, we all know that mages are always a cunning group of people, so I think that in order to avoid similar tragedies from happening, demon seekers should be more involved in daily patrols in various places to prevent the slightest change... "

Good guy!

Upon hearing this, the nobles and noble representatives present reacted quickly.

After taking away the military power of the nobles, Jarvan IV is now going to take action on the law and order power!

But after reaction, even though they understood Jarvan IV's purpose, the nobles and noble representatives present were still full of doubts.

Why police power?

In the eyes of most nobles, the power of public security is a completely thankless power - maintaining security in the territory also costs a lot of money. Is the royal family full of food?

However, after thinking about it for a while, many people who reacted quickly understood the subtleties.

Although the power of security will not bring the most direct benefits, it is the most direct way of contact between the lord and the subjects. In other words, the power of security is the most direct help that the lord can feel for the common people. .

Civilians had to pay taxes, perform labor services, and abide by the rules set by local lords. In this process, almost the only positive feedback they received was the guarantee of personal safety.

It is no exaggeration to say that maintaining local security is almost the only responsibility and positive connection between the noble lords of Demacia and the civilians under their rule.

In the eyes of most civilians, after working hard and paying taxes and doing hard labor, it is not because they are noble nobles, but because they are lords who control the future promotion channels of their descendants (joining the army) and can protect their own. Safety.

Once the power of security is deprived by the royal family, and the security of all parts of Demacia will be handled by organizations directly under the royal family, will the common people everywhere still respect the lord?

Even if the common people still maintain respect for their lords under Demacia's order framework, once the royal family continues to put pressure on the lords, and the royal family's orders conflict with the lord's orders, which side will the civilians everywhere take? Woolen cloth?

Is it the royal family that controls the military force (military), promotion channels (military service and nobility), and security responsibilities (police power)?

Or what about the lord who does nothing but collects taxes?

You can figure this out even if you think about it with your knees.

Although he didn't really want to be kind to the people, he saw that Jarvan IV had made up his mind to strengthen the direct connection between the royal family and the common people. It seemed that he wanted to completely abandon the nobles and do their own thing. The nobles came to their senses. Finally, they all realized that they could never regress here.

After a short adjournment, the noble representatives quickly reached an agreement and firmly opposed the blue-robed hyenas wandering around - the reason was also ready, after all, Demacia is a glorious kingdom.

Their glory was tarnished and their face was thrown to the ground. The family involved was indeed doomed to collapse, but wasn't this a blow to the entire Demacia?

The glorious nobles were reduced to dust amidst the ridicule of the common people. Is it just the worth of the ruined nobles that was lost?

And a royal face!

The nobles rule the common people. This is the fundamental order of Demacia. Will the royal family eventually take back everything the Demacian nobles have in their own fiefdoms and hand it over to the royal family for their own management?

If so, is Demacia still Demacia?

At the time of life and death, the nobles who had been holding each other back finally regained some unity. They resolutely resisted the demon seekers entering their territory. Their attitude was so firm that it completely exceeded Jarvan IV's expectations.

Shouldn't it be like this?

Faced with the raging public opinion, Jarvan IV couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

According to the consistent virtues of nobles everywhere, they have never cared about the power of public security, a power that has no direct benefits.

What is going on today? Why do these people seem to have enlightened themselves?

If they are so determined...then I am afraid that I need to temporarily stop and think carefully about my next move.

Jarvan IV really just wanted to further weaken the power of the nobles and make them become administrators instead of petty kings in their own fiefdoms.

Demacians must not be allowed to "know only the lord and not the king."

He never thought about turning the nobility into a title in name only. After all... Demacia did need the nobility to rule.

In the end, the meeting broke up unhappy, and the two sides did not reach any unified opinion on the issue of public security rights.

Then, just when Jarvan IV was about to summon Zwei and tell him to slow down his actions a little, Zwei showed amazing efficiency.

As soon as the meeting ended, a second fire started in Zwei.

This time, he personally led a team to hunt down a demon-stained person and entered the noble fiefdom. When the Sheriff tried to stop him, he took action and captured both the Sheriff and the demon-stained person.

This is not the end.

What's even worse is that Zwei repeated what he had done in the Gotin family. This unfortunate noble lord's treasure house was forcibly opened in the name of investigating the case, and most of the treasures in it were proved by Gotin. They were dangerous magic items and all were confiscated.

The second noble lord fell to Zwei's bite.

Mad Dog seemed completely insane.

Under such a situation, the noble council finally responded - with the help of thoughtful people, they quickly found a reason to resist the mad dog.

"Twelve years ago, when the demon seekers exposed their unprofessionalism, Your Excellency Count Laxana had already proven her ability with actions. Compared with the demon seekers, Lark, who is a climber like your majesty, Your Excellency Shanna is undoubtedly more professional in dealing with the issue of demon-contaminated people. If there are any issues related to demon-contaminated people, we can definitely contact Your Excellency Laxana for a more flexible and decent handling - the royal family had better put a chain on the mad dog. Don’t say that you didn’t predict what you said.”

Kalya's Little Class·Use of Magic Items:

Although Demacia bans magic, there is actually quite a lot of magic - it's just that most people don't know about it.
