Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Lux is preparing to dig the passage to Calican's laboratory.

In another part of Zaun, Silko was planning for Lux to die at the hands of the Piltovers.

The failure of the attack on the Sun Gate made Silko discover that compared to Piltover, Zaun had nothing but a large population and a passion for it.

Flesh and flesh is no match for firearms. If Zaun really wants to stand up, he must have his own strength, a strength that is enough to make Piltover afraid, and Ino's magic allows him to see this strength.

Ordinary thugs can easily defeat Piltover's law enforcement officers even one-on-one, but if a group of law enforcement officers come together and fire volleys of firearms, the thugs will eventually fall. Even a strong man like Fander can't bring a solution to this situation. What changes are coming.

But Ino is different.

Hilko listened to his subordinate Mr. Shadow carefully describe the situation after Ino created the ice, and also learned from Finn that Ino could easily make a group of thugs lose their combat effectiveness by himself.

If you have such a powerful mage in your hand, even the people of Piltover will be jealous and afraid!

For Hilko, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! An opportunity to make the people of Piltover fear Zaun!

The only problem is how to get Ino to side with the Zaans and make her willing to fight against the Piltovers for Zaun.

This is not a simple matter.

Hilko needs a perfect plan, a plan without any flaws.

From Silko's point of view, Lux should be a "Miss of the Shurima Family" - he did not hear Lux and Vi introduce themselves, and did not know that Lux was from Demacia.

Under this situation, he believed that as long as his plan was thorough enough, even if Lux's family came to find him later, they would not think it was his problem and would work together to cause trouble for the Piltover people.

Because the person in charge of the bombing was Grayson, she and Fander were old acquaintances, and they had a tacit understanding with each other. It would be difficult to provoke them.

However, things seem to have changed now.

Mr. Shadow sent news that today, Lux had a dispute with the law enforcement officer who came to handle the case in Forgan's Tavern, and the final result was that the law enforcement officer left the tavern in despair.

"Isn't it Grayson who came to Fulgen's Tavern today?" Hilko's eyes lit up after hearing the news, "It looks like he's a fool?"

"..."

"It's good to have stupid young people. Only stupid people can be used." Hilko took a long breath and buried himself completely in the large chair. "Only stupid people can intensify conflicts - I like stupid people." green."

"Well, Marcos is not that easy to talk to." Mr. Shadow replied in a low voice, "Although Marcos is a little stunned, he is not the least proud of Piltover guys..."

"I just like people who are hard to talk to." Hilko chuckled, "Those like Grayson who are easy to talk to are the ones who get into trouble... Ask Finn to talk to him. I've seen many such Piltover guys. There are two eyes on the top of the head. As long as you compliment me, you will be confused and don't know who you are."

"But, is Finn really reliable?" Mr. Shadow finally couldn't help but ask, "He has his own thoughts lately - how about you go there yourself?"

"It's not a big problem." Silko shook his head and lit a cigar for himself. "Why did you make him the Alchemist Baron? It's not because he is best at groveling."

……………………

What Hilko didn't know was that the person who led the team to Forgan's Tavern this time was not Grayson but Marcos, mainly because Grayson had a more important mission.

She lifted Jace out of jail and brought him before the Council for questioning.

"Are you ready for your defense?" Jace raised the question in person. Grayson looked at the depressed man and sighed helplessly, "You've caused me a lot of trouble, Jace. Si, Zu'an is still under blockade. Personally, I hope you can admit your mistake and calm down this turmoil as soon as possible, which is good for everyone."

"I have heard enough words of punishment, Ms. Grayson." Hearing this, Jess lowered his head helplessly, "Both my mentors and parents hope that I can settle down - I am not a Crazy careerist, I just saw a new path..."

"Sorry, I don't understand technical matters." Grayson shook his head and interrupted Jace, "I'm just a police chief. I only know that your dangerous experiment caused an amazing explosion that even caused Piltover to explode." The relationship with Zu An has reached a dangerous critical point. Fortunately, no one died, otherwise I wouldn’t even have the time to persuade you to be more honest..."

"..."

Hearing what Grayson said, Jace closed his mouth dejectedly. Obviously, he had realized that this kind of question made no sense to Grayson.

In other words, he knew this from the beginning, and took the initiative to argue just because he wanted to find someone to talk to.

It's okay that Grayson doesn't understand.

Jace didn't expect a law enforcement officer to understand what kind of changes the technology he was researching could bring to Piltover.

He had carefully prepared a speech. Although Lux did not ask Ino to help with the speech, Jace believed that the members of the Council would understand the meaning of magic and the significance of his experiment!

Hex Crystal should not be used simply and crudely for mining and channel digging. It has broader room for development!

In the eyes of others, Jace should beg for forgiveness from the Parliament in this upcoming trial; but in Jace's own eyes, what is coming is not a trial, but a huge stage!

I, Jace, will prove to all of you that I have found my way forward.

In this way, Jess stood in front of the parliament with confidence and began his speech.

"This is not a dangerous experiment, this is an independent experiment, and it was an accident..."

"Actually, what I am doing is research on the Hex Crystal, and how to use it as a medium and source of energy to release magic..."

"I think that represents the way forward..."

"I believe--"

"That's enough, Mr. Tallis." Just as Jace was getting better and started to talk, one of the members interrupted him without hesitation, "This is a trial of parliament, not for minors. Apprentice's Imagine the Future Speech Contest, if your head was not seriously injured in that explosion, you can shut up now."

"I--"

Jace was still thinking about saying something, but then his mother's appearance finally made all his words choke in his throat.

"Sorry, Members, please allow me to say a few words..."

"Jace has been obsessed with magic since he was a child, so much so that he often loses judgment..."

"He is always overly enthusiastic when it comes to magic, and his intention is not to destroy..."

"I hope you can give him a chance and don't exile him. Even as a craftsman, he can make his own contribution to Piltover..."

"I beg you, all members of Congress, for your forgiveness and understanding for a child who has a whim..."

"..."

"..."

Jess watched all this blankly, watched his mother blame all problems on her excessive enthusiasm, and watched the congressmen finally begin to vote impatiently.

In the end, with the pleas of Jess's mother and Heimerdinger's relief, he was spared from exile, but instead was deprived of his research qualifications and sent to his own home.

Seeing these congressmen deciding their own fate easily without even knowing what they were doing, at this moment, Jace felt that his life was in darkness.

Kalja's Little Classroom Piltover Council:

The Piltover Council is the nominally highest administrative and arbitration body in Piltover. It has limited seats and can decide almost all matters in Piltover with one person and one vote.

However, judging from the overwhelming publicity and endless canvassing during each change, it seems that it is not as sacred and powerful as it seems.
