Lux's Magic Penetration Rod
Chapter 641 【0633】 Loneliness
People are affected by their environment.
People who have stayed in Forsbarrow for a long time sometimes subconsciously forget that Demacia is actually a very traditional and conservative country.
Since the deaths of kings Oren and Sentu, many of Demacia's technologies have gradually stagnated, such as the use of the Forbidden Demon Stone - to this day, demon seekers are still using the Forbidden Demon Stone to The natural absorption of magic power "restrains" magic.
Even though the first generation head of the Durang family had discovered the essence of the Forbidden Magic Stone a long time ago, for Demacia, who bans magic, and for the demon searchers who preside over the work of banning magic, knowing that the Forbidden Magic Stone can absorb magic enough.
"As long as it works" has led to technological stagnation, making it impossible for demon hunters to produce any key evidence.
After Paoloba realized this, he bit the magic seeker and refused to admit that he had ever used any magic.
"If I used some magic, your majesty, why couldn't the demon seekers open the door to my house?" At the trial hosted by Jarvan IV himself, Paoloba was confident, "They used the forbidden magic stone to create The stick left many clear marks on the door of my house, but the door was not opened. I think this is enough to prove my innocence."
Facing the door that had been removed as evidence, and looking at the clearly visible marks of blows from the stick, Jarvan IV's face dropped.
"As for why the door of my house is so strong, it's because my job at Forsbarrow is very special. Sometimes I have to bring some forbidden magic stones home for processing." Before the demon searchers could find an excuse, Bo Roba continued to appeal to himself with his chest raised and his head raised, "I have many forbidden magic stones in my home, and their safety needs to be guaranteed, so I specially customized this door - all of which were approved by Her Excellency Count Laxana. of!"
Lux nodded imperceptibly, and Jarvan IV's expression became even more ugly.
"I need to be responsible for the repair work of the Colossus of Justice." Pelopa's self-statement continued, "For this, His Excellency the Colossus of Justice can even testify..."
Jarvan IV's face has darkened - he once fought alongside Galio in Tobitsia, and he knew very well that the colossus was conscious, but it was asleep most of the time, and since this one is called Paoloba If anyone dares to say this, then I’m afraid it’s all true.
He is really the person on Forsbarrow's side who specializes in maintaining the Colossus of Justice.
Jarvan IV, who was originally dissatisfied with the demon searchers' wanton provocation, would have even hoped that the demon searchers would shut up if he wasn't concerned that the trial process had already begun.
Sure enough, when it was the demon seekers' turn to give their statements, their descriptions became extremely confusing.
First of all, they couldn't explain why they had to be so offensive and rude as to randomly set off flames to detect magic in Forsbarrow City.
Even though Forsbarrow "has a lot of residual traces of magic", Lux also had a very sufficient explanation: many natural furs and minerals contain magic. As the most important trading city in the north, Forsbarrow not only knows how to handle Various raw materials, as well as many items imported from foreign countries, such as Hex devices, will leave traces of magic when exposed to the detection flame.
To take a step back, even if the magic searchers want to search for magic in Forsbarrow, they can only point to uncontrolled demon-infected people or magic items that can be used by others. They are just traces of magic. This does not mean that they do not know the lord. , the reason for direct search of residences.
Secondly, the demon searchers kept saying that they found "undisguised traces of magic" on the door of Paoloba's house, and insisted that Paoloba used magic to resist arrest. However, in the process, they used targeted weapons. The Forbidden Magic Stone, which has the best magic effect, smashed the door for a long time.
If there was magic on the door of Peloba's house, then the magic should be broken, right?
The demon seeker said that Peroba used magic, but also said that the forbidden magic stone stick could not destroy the magic or open the door... This is a self-contradictory thing under Demacia's logic.
In the end, what the demon seekers couldn't explain the most was why they forced their way in instead of seeking help from the lord after Pelobar revealed his identity - don't forget, Jarvan IV came here hoping to use Laxana Earl, calm down the situation caused by the demon seeker walking alone this time. At this time, the demon seeker should clamp his tail and not continue to expand the trouble!
The demon seekers are in trouble and cannot tell.
Even in the face of Jarvan IV's darkened face, they could not point out Miss Lanf. Therefore, after the trial, the demon seekers involved were ordered to be stripped of their positions and would be taken back to the capital and imprisoned. In the devil's prison.
After everything was over, Jarvan IV communicated with Lux again. Lux generously stated that she would block the news and continue to help Jarvan IV mediate, but in addition, she also said that the demon seeker His professionalism needs to be improved, which makes Jarvan IV even more embarrassed.
After what happened, Jarvan IV finally couldn't stay in Forsbarrow any longer.
After a brief review of the Third Northern Army, he canceled his subsequent trip and set off directly back to Xiongdu.
……………………
After leaving Forsbarrow, Jarvan IV became more and more angry. He finally made up his mind this time and severely punished the Demon Seeker.
In his opinion, this organization has been completely blinded by the desire for power and cannot clearly see its own position!
The current commander of the Demon Searchers, Zwei, also made Jarvan IV feel quite disappointed - maybe he is not suitable for this position and to command these thorny people who are not easy to lead. Maybe he should be sent to the army in the future. Go over there...
However, when Jarvan IV arrived in the capital and was about to raise an army to investigate, a file from a demon searcher made him almost unable to believe his eyes.
This file shows that Pelobas, who spoke so eloquently, was actually a prisoner in the Forbidden Prison and a demon-contaminated person!
"Your Majesty, in the past period of time, I have been sorting out the files of the Demon Searchers and improving the discipline of the Demon Searchers." Zwei explained sincerely and helplessly, "Because of the accident twelve years ago, the Demon Searchers Many of the demon's files need to be re-established, a lot of information has been lost, and the manpower is extremely insufficient... This is not me excusing my negligence, but this demon search operation is not a deliberate provocation."
"Even if he was once a prisoner in the Forbidden Demon Prison." Jarvan IV's tone softened slightly, "This is not the reason why they acted rashly in Forsbarrow - if I remember correctly, the Demon Searchers should have done the same. Are you selecting people among the demon-stained ones?"
"It used to be." Zwei nodded lightly, "But ever since Silas broke the confinement of the Demon-Forbidden Prison twelve years ago, this matter has been banned within the Demon Searchers, because subsequent investigations proved that Silas Si's escape may be related to his having worked for the Demon Searchers and understanding the environment of the Demon Forbidden Prison."
Jarvan IV couldn't help but rub his forehead.
What happened twelve years ago was still fresh in Jarvan IV's memory, but because the damage was too severe, the follow-up report from the Demonic Prison was also vague.
Jarvan IV actually didn't pay much attention to this matter, because according to the news about the previous battle in Mithral City, Silas betrayed Demacia and appeared in the barbarian army. After that battle There is a great possibility of dying on the battlefield and everyone is gone. Paying attention to what happened before is not as important as reconstruction.
In addition, Jarvan IV has been busy with work since he succeeded to the throne, and has never focused on the demon seekers. Therefore, before this, he had not thought about the problem of dealing with the demon seekers - nor I never thought about it. More than two years ago, the demon seekers packed up a batch of demon-infected people and sent them to Forsbarrow. At that time, Jarvan IV felt that there was no problem, so he signed and agreed.
And now, according to Zwei, it seems that Laxana is using those demon-contaminated people on a large scale?
In theory, there is no problem with this kind of behavior. After all, when Lux was granted the title of Forsbarrow, she had to deal with those who were possessed by demons.
But that time, this time.
At that time, there was nothing in Forsbarrow's barren mountains and rivers. The Freljord people in the north would sometimes launch invasions, and the demon-stained people were allowed to go to the north to fight for their country, which was a waste of money.
Jarvan IV, who realized this, felt somewhat uncomfortable.
The power to suppress magic is the power of the king of Demacia.
I am still trying to use the power of banning demons to cover the power of public security and strengthen grassroots control. But Fosbairo has quietly taken the power of banning demons into his own hands?
But twelve years later, many things have changed.
After the Battle of Mithral City, the barbarians from the north who liked to raid south were defeated; the remaining barbarians were afraid of Count Laxana's achievements and chose to trade with the north, selling furs and specialties at low prices.
The once sterile northern territory has now gradually become prosperous. After the opening of many trade routes, although today's Forsbarrow is not less prosperous than the capital, it can be said to be very wealthy.
As for Jarvan IV, the royal family has completely suppressed the Noble Council and is working hard to take back the power in the king's hands. It is no longer the time when Jarvan III was on the throne, when everything needed to be compromised.
In the past, the border was dangerous, the north was poor, and the royal family had limited power. In order to stabilize the situation, Lux was given the power to ban demons in the north. This was no problem.
But now that the border is no longer dangerous, the northern border is getting richer, and the power of the royal family has increased greatly. At this time, Forsbyro still holds the power to ban demons...
Under such circumstances, no matter how wise Jarvan IV was, his attitude towards Forsbarrow and Laxana would inevitably change.
Before this trip to Forsbarrow, due to the relationship between Jarvan IV and Lux who grew up together, and the fact that the capital was too far away from the north, the distance created a beauty.
It can be seen from Jarvan IV's attitude in taking the initiative to meet in the North this time that he has always regarded Lux as one of his own. She is different from other insect nobles and is a model of nobility.
However, when the demon hunter's mistake clearly revealed the power of banning demons controlled by Lux in front of Jarvan IV, Laxana's status finally changed subtly in the heart of the King. .
A model of nobility...
That is also a noble!
Subsequently, Zwei did not make any further excuses, but emphasized that he would take good care of the Demon Searchers, and asked Jarvan IV if he could fire a group of veterans and recruit some fresh blood.
Jarvan IV, who originally planned to transfer Zwei to the army, agreed to his request after some thought.
Then, after Zwedering left, Jarvan IV suddenly felt a loneliness coming from the bottom of his heart - it seemed that for the first time he was clearly aware of the tomboy-like person who had followed him and Galen. Little Lux is no longer his friend.
……………………
What Jarvan IV didn't know was that after Zwei left Castle Dawn, the "loyal" leader of the Demon Searchers did not go directly to work as he thought, but found his "fiancée" , showed off happily.
"Oops." When facing LeBlanc, Vladimir showed a very real side, "Isn't this our pale lady who has no tricks at all? Why do you need me, an ignorant guy, to wipe your butt? ?”
Facing Vladimir's ridicule, although LeBlanc felt very unhappy, she could not find any reason to refute.
On this trip to the North, it was indeed my side that stretched my hips.
"Isn't this better?" LeBlanc sneered and quickly changed the topic, "There is still the possibility of reconciliation in the fierce confrontation in person, but the suspicion in the dark can only make the rift wider... …”
"Don't change the subject." Unfortunately, Vladimir was still reluctant. "Didn't you say before that you wanted the young king to fall out with that noble model in the north? Why have you changed your mind now?"
"One moment and another." LeBlanc still kept a pale dead face, "Now that my role has come to an end, it's you, have you thought about who to send to the demon seekers?"
"It has been prepared for a long time." The corner of Vladimir's mouth turned up, showing a confident and greasy smile, "I am really grateful to that noble model lady. If she hadn't strongly supported art in the past, I'm afraid those little guys would have wanted to be deceived. It’s not easy for the Marcians to accept it!”
"You have to be careful, don't show your flaws." LeBlanc warned pointedly, "Don't get carried away and expose your original artistic aesthetic!"
"Is there something wrong with my artistic aesthetic?" Vladimir snorted dissatisfied, "Scarlet is an elegant color - it's just that these country bumpkins in Demacia don't understand and are just obsessed with their stupid blue color. That’s all…”
Kalya’s Little Class·The Latent Black Rose:
Even Kalya would not have thought that the Art Support Association he helped Lux set up would become a way for Black Rose members to infiltrate Demacia and be accepted into Demacia's aristocratic circle many years later.
Demacia's art circle... doesn't seem to be very popular!
