No matter what Jace thought, as an inventor with a hammer in his arm, it was enough to choke on the way, without the help of Caitlyn and the guards, he had no choice but to follow the team back to the 'City of Progress'. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Especially after seeing the dangerous magic of the crazy Zuan scientist, Jace himself rushed up with a small hammer to find the other party's theory, and only ended up miserable.

There are times when absolute power is much more useful than laws or rules.

This truth was deeply realized by Jace the day after he returned to Piltover with the interior affairs officials.

Although all the city-state government officials responsible for the design of the Olympian Converter took the city-state very seriously, the most promising young inventor of the future, the form of government of the 'progressive city' and the power it possessed meant that Piltover could only protest against the distorted technology city of Zaun across the Channel over this modest diplomatic incident.

And all protests will inevitably lead to the situation where big things are small, small things are small, and then they are not over.

Despite his best efforts, Jace earnestly explained to the officials in charge of the matter what would happen if his 'Arcane Converter' technology were to be mastered by the forces of chaos and evil.

Officials have no choice but to send forces directly to help the poor young inventor as an act of aggression against their neighbors, fearing that it will provoke a place of lawlessness and draw the 'progressive city' into the quagmire of conflict.

By the time Jace left the city-state government in the evening, the officials in charge were reluctant to even see him again, or sent only low-level officials to Jace's lab to assist with the forensics process.

The young inventor in a fit of rage kicked all these guys out of the laboratory who were just trying to cope with their errands, and at this moment his heart was helpless except anger.

Uncomfortable, Jace locked himself in a small, dark room, facing a wall covered with blueprints, and pondered alone why his beloved country had become the way it was.

It had been a long time since dinner time, and there was another knock on the door of the small room, and Jace pulled his mind back from his sleepwalking state, and said in a hoarse voice in the direction of the door, "I'm not hungry, don't call me to eat!" ”

Hearing his answer, there was silence outside the door for a moment, and then a familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded: "No one brings you food, and I don't have time to talk with you for long, open the door, I just say a word and leave." ”

Although the voice wasn't from any of the lab's staff, Jace quickly understood who was standing outside the door.

Like a man in the water who grabbed a life-saving straw, he hurried to the door and opened the door that had been closed for a long time.

Outside the door, the beautiful 'Pitt Policewoman' was carrying her trademark gun, looking at Jace with a happy face when she opened the door, in order not to misunderstand the other party, Caitlyn hurriedly said: "Okay, it seems that I have to say a word, I can't do anything about your theft." The law didn't allow me to go to other city-states to enforce the law. ”

Sure enough, Catelyn's words made Jace's happy expression on his face freeze, and she didn't care about Jace's mood, and then followed up with the second sentence, which was the only sentence that Catelyn had originally prepared to say.

"I first showed my talent for spotting and tracking when I was 14 years old when my father was attacked on his way home and robbed of the gold pocket watch I had saved up for a long time to give him as a birthday present," Caitlin said, patting her on her pretty hat and praising her on her head. ”

Seeing the glint in the eyes of the lost young inventor, Caitlyn understood that her words were understood by the other party, so she nodded and turned to leave.

If everyone expects others to protect them, then who will?

In a dazed and helpless mind, this thought suddenly appeared like a spring thunder, and it lasted for a long time, and when he finally accepted this bold idea, and looked up to thank the beautiful female police officer, Caitlin's slender figure had already turned out of the laboratory.

However, Jace was not in a hurry to catch up, he had more important things to do now, and a look of determination that he had never felt before appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself: "Well, you have guarded it for so long in the past time; Then in the future, this home we all love, I will protect it! ”

The young inventor, awakened, rushed into his laboratory and searched around, suddenly fixing his gaze on the hammer that had accompanied him the day before to track down the thief.

After stepping forward to study and conceive in his head, Jace rolled up his sleeves and threw himself into preparing for his new venture, and if the Zuan man with his wrong and evil thoughts found out the blueprint of his Arcana Converter, then Piltover, and the entire Valoran world, would be in great danger!

Jace, who had been immersed in his invention, was no longer able to take care of the outside world, so in the absence of strong evidence from him, the Piltover Council's representations and protests against the Zaun Freedom Committee soon died down.

After learning of this from the Freedom Council, which had no ability to keep it secret, Victor was completely relieved when he returned to Zaun's lab.

Although his proud achievements in the field of mechanical automation had been usurped by Professor Stanrick, he had a general understanding of the inability of the Zaun Freedom Committee to manage these mad scientists.

But it is the first time for him to be such a villain, and he will inevitably have some apprehension after returning to the laboratory.

Now that Victor has finally settled down, after briefly remembering the robot Britz that he once developed and can be called a breakthrough in the history of science, and the perceptual system that was developed with it, Victor, who named himself the 'mechanical pioneer', plunged headlong into the research and cracking of the magic energy converter.

Only at this time can we see the side of Victor as a scientist.

……

Sailing on the seas was very tedious, except for the departure and arrival of the port, the merchants, accustomed to going back and forth between the ports, stayed in the dreary cabins to guard their valuables.

Those who are willing to go on deck are passengers who do not go to sea often...... Or someone with a special need for a separate space.

For several days at sea, every evening when Ezreal counted the time to breathe, he would 'chance' meet that lovely figure near the stern.

The closer he gets to the port of Piltover, the more Ezreal will appreciate this opportunity.

So this day was no exception, and the 'explorer' came to the aft side of the ship, a familiar figure still leaning against the gangbar to enjoy the sunset as usual.

Exhaling lightly, Ezreal walked quickly to the girl who had recently developed the 'habit of appreciating the sunset', and at the same time adjusted the expression on her face, as if she had really met by chance, and greeted, "Ah~ Lux! What a coincidence, you're here too. Not... I ......"

Ezreal's last words were blocked by the mischievous smile on his face that looked back at him with a smile, even though he had faced this delicate face countless times, he still felt unable to deal with it.

Ever since she stepped onto the deck, Lux had been secretly guessing in her heart, and when she heard the hurried footsteps behind her and the expected 'coincidence' greeting, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, and only when she turned back could not help but have a delicate smile on her face.

The girl in the cabin at night, who had been teased by Tristana countless times, saw the other party's very helpless expression, and said lightly with some shame: "Stupid! ”

"Huh? What the? Ezreal, who was fascinated by the girl's smile, finally came back to his senses, but he didn't hear what the other party had just whispered, so he asked, "What did you just say, Lux." Sorry I didn't hear ......"

Thinking of Tristana's teasing, Lux couldn't help but have two red glows on her face, and wanted to lose her temper with this stupid man, but her expression was extremely delicate: "It's nothing! Because the sun at noon is too big, of course, it only comes out in the evening to breathe, so it is naturally easy to touch, what is the coincidence! ”

"Will it? I see Timo and Tristana, don't they like to come out at noon to breathe? "Who knows which pot Ezreal won't open and which pot to mention, just follow Lux's words and go straight to it.

Isn't this what Tristana and Lux said when they were laughing at the girl when they were together in bed: Oops~ You don't know, in order to avoid the scorching sun in the evening, Teemo and I have to choose a short time at noon to breathe on the deck~~~

When her mind returned to her body, Lux almost wanted to turn around and ignore this extremely stupid guy, and after pretending for a long time, she still only let out a soft 'hum'.

'Hmm...... Am I wrong again? Ezreal, who didn't understand what he had done wrong, touched his nose in some confusion.

However, he understands that a girl's mind changes quickly, and he finally realized some superficial truths, and it is usually very useful to use the topic to shift Dafa at this time.

So Ezreal hurriedly performed this ultimate, and announced in a somewhat cheerful voice, "By the way, I can now use instant spells again!" ”

"Your handguards are fixed?!" This is indeed good news, so that at least in possible battles in the future, not only will they not have to divide their men to protect the 'Explorer', but they will also have one more combat power, so Lux is also very happy when he hears it.

Hearing Lux's question, Ezreal looked down in embarrassment, the Legendary Gauntlet, which was still failing, before saying, "Well, it hasn't been fixed yet. It's Lux that your guidance works, and I've been trying to cast spells using the methods you taught, so now I'm a qualified battle mage even without a gauntlet! ”

Ezreal's words surprised Lux, and although he was sure that he would be able to master the ability to instantaneously generate spells sooner or later, it was quite unexpected that he was so fast.

He really deserves to be an excellent senior of the academy, if he didn't waste his energy on archaeology from the beginning, with Ezreal's talent in magic, he would definitely be able to quickly grow into one of the most powerful battle mages in the Valoran continent, right? But if this stupid guy with no talent in terms of emotions at all was really a battle mage, maybe it would be impossible for the two of them to stand on the deck and enjoy the magnificent sunset like this now?

Fate is really unpredictable......

Young people who are caught up in a relationship quickly ignore their surroundings in the eyes of each other's attraction.

Fortunately, the boys were handsome and dashing, and the girls were cute and pretty, and the occasional travelers who passed by here all looked here with envy in their eyes, and cooperatively left enough space for the two young men, who sometimes whispered and sometimes chuckled.

When the last rays of the sunset were about to be completely hidden in the sea, Ezreal and Lux walked towards the restaurant with some unfinished thoughts, although the 'plump' head chef had already beckoned a few crew members to clean the restaurant, but Tristana, as a companion, would buy dinner for the two of them in advance, and as long as she paid a few more copper coins, the head chef would no longer care about their stay.

But this day is getting later and later, and it still makes the emotional side keenly can't help but laugh at the two people in love: "It's really strange, Timo." ”

"Huh? What? The little scout, who sat in the corner of the table and carefully wiped the blow pipe in his hand, heard his companion's question a little inexplicably.

The Cannon Lady looked at Lux, who was about to lower her head on the plate, and then looked at Ezreal, who was also looking at her with some curiosity, waiting for an answer, and shook her head before sighing: "It's nothing, I just think the sunset time is getting late late." ”

Teemo, who was holding a blowpipe in one hand, tilted his head and thought about it carefully, and then said with admiration on his face: "How do you know, Tristana, you haven't been out to see it." I didn't even notice that! ”

Seeing that Lux finally covered her face completely with the teacup, her shoulders began to shake uncontrollably and rapidly, and the Cannon Lady couldn't help but want to cover her face, which really made Timo lose all her face, alas, there is more than one fool on this table.

……

In the east of the continent, the Noxus Empire in the night did not quiet down, on the contrary, in all corners of the capital Noxus City, there were teams of Zhige soldiers patrolling.

Darius, who was about to leave for the western front, had to stop preparing for another temporary mission after receiving a call from General Svein a few days earlier.

Although he and Svein represent two different factions in the military, they are both part of a powerful military junta.

Therefore, after learning of the coup d'état of the old nobles, Darius must side with Svein, who at this time occupies the position of great general, otherwise he will not be able to suppress the crowd of young officers.

And Darius was not in a good situation at this time, the battle of conquest that was about to begin under the leadership of Svein had secretly received the support of many young and strong officers, and compared to him who conservatively offered to go to the western border, Svein was becoming more and more popular with those who were eager to prove themselves through battle, and believed in the God of War Sect officers.
