Lux's Farewell

683 Progress [0674]
When Nidu suddenly said, "Your Excellency Laxana can be king", Lax undoubtedly felt quite a headache.

She does hope that the nobles in the northern border will tend to be progressive, but it is not the kind of "progress" that is obviously politically speculative and needs to be put in double quotation marks.

Regarding Nidu's nonsense, all Lux could do was to reject it sternly.

However, Nidu was not willing to give up easily.

Although they were the first group of nobles who came to Forsbarrow on their own initiative, hoping to solve the problem of population outflow, Nidu was not the same kind of person as Guswo, who had spoken straightforwardly before.

Ever since he got rid of the shackles of the offshoot of the clan with the help of Lax, Nidu has always regarded himself as a hardcore Lax faction, and has always wanted Laxana to be the speaker of the northern border under his real name.

However, the stand behind this kind of superficial support is actually his own interests. He gave up the textile industry he controlled in exchange for his own agriculture and obtained a large order from Forsbarrow. Behind the full-mouthed doctrine, It was Nidu's full-hearted business.

Therefore, this time, Nidu took the initiative to encourage Lacus to become king. Nidu was not just to stand in line - after he abolished his martial arts and gave up the textile industry, the Nidu family's territory Temula has been fully transferred to agricultural development. Considering that Temura is not far from Fossbarrow, and the civilians of Temura have a lot of contact with Fossbarrow, when Fossbarrow absorbed the population on a large scale this time, Temula was really affected. It's too serious!
With the industry and Fossbarrow completely bound, Nidu didn't want to say no to Lacus like a stunned young man. After finally clearing away the influence of the family branch, he gradually looked down on farming. The income from rent collection is gone.

Nidu wants to get a big piece of Fossbarrow's industrial chain.

Considering that Her Excellency Laxanna never treats friends badly, Nidu thinks that persuading her to come in should be a good choice.

Stand up for yourself and run around for Her Majesty Laxanna's cause of becoming king, and Fosbarrow reciprocates, sending some of the overflowing property to Temura. Isn't this beautiful?
It's hard to say whether it's because Nidu is too stupid to have such outrageous thoughts, or because Lacus usually hides it too well.

Not to mention that Lacus is not interested in the king at all, even if she wants to become king and emperor, it depends on her own strength, Fossbarrow's power and development, noble endorsement and other things, for her, it is completely a burden. effect!
Therefore, when Nidu was unwilling to give up, Lux's words gradually became more and more intense. When the other party had no demeanor, her words finally carried a hint of threat.

"Your Majesty proclaims the emperor, and Demacia should have a new atmosphere." She said pointingly, "In the new atmosphere, everyone should have their own place. There are many people who respected the Nidu family in ancient times. Willing to participate in new textiles."

What Lacus was referring to were some of the declining offshoots of the Nidu family—they were the managers of the textile industry when Temulla was still the center of the textile industry in the north. They were accepted as technical backbones in a very eloquent manner.

Seeing that Nidu was entangled, and even pushed his nose and face, Lacus's words finally had a hint of threat.

In the past, she could support Nidu to take back the power in the clan, but now if Nidu is endless, she can also cause some trouble for Nidu!
Hearing this, Mr. Nidu finally felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him, and his whole body instantly cooled down.

Seeing that Lax's attitude is firm, not half-hearted at all, Nidu can only retreat in the end, but behind the superficial fear, the patriarch, Mr. Already had other thoughts.

If you don't succeed, you will become a resentment.

Although everything in Temura seems to be highly bound to Fossbarrow, and I really have no ability to resist Lacus, but since you are not willing to accept progress today, then I can only find someone who accepts progress up.

That night, when the other nobles were honestly thinking about how to fool people from the south, this Mr. Nidu directly turned his guns around, and turned his back on the spot when he failed to persuade them to enter.

According to the information from the intelligence team, this Mr. Nidu couldn't even wait to go back to his home territory, Temula. After being rejected by Lux, he wrote a letter at the place where he was staying, requesting that his entourage be sent to Xiongdu.

Unsurprisingly, such a reckless behavior was caught by the intelligence team that had been on full alert long ago. It didn't take much effort for the intelligence team to figure out the contents of the letter.

Report.

That's right, Nidu directly wrote a very exaggerated report letter, wanting to report that Lacus was raising mages and plotting rebellion on purpose!
Since there is no evidence, the content of Nidu's report letter is as outrageous as it needs to be. The lines between the lines are like small essays, full of subjective conjectures and emotional venting conjectures.

But what's interesting is that, compared with Lux's anti-thief behavior, his assumptions are not only not exaggerated, but even a little insufficient.

Yes, not enough.

Even though Nidu has tried his best and racked his brains to fabricate accusations, in fact, compared with the policies implemented by Lacus in Fossbarrow, what he has gathered is not enough at all.

Therefore, although Lacus was very nervous after receiving the news, she relaxed after receiving the letter.

Even after reading it, she was in the mood to joke with Karya.

"He has tried very hard to describe a traitor, but Mr. Nidu probably never imagined it in his dreams. He made it up too conservatively."

"To be honest, you should really thank Mr. Nidu." After Carya took the letter and read it at a glance, the smile on the mask couldn't hold back, "Not only because of his clumsy report, but also because of his Set the other nobles in the north on fire."

"Just like when he wanted to hang me up." Lux shrugged, "Maybe it can help us further distinguish who is the friend we can unite with?"

"Yes." Carya nodded with some emotion, "Everything in the northern border seems to be under the order of Fossbarrow, but in fact, I don't know how many people are like Nidu. It’s just the side of my ass, for these people, we must give them the opportunity to transform, but also prevent them from wearing the skin of Forsbarrow to destroy.”

"Is it really possible for these people to change their reasons for supporting Fossbarrow from self-interest to sincere support?" What we win over these northern nobles is by means of profit."

"It's not a mistake to seek common profit and common development." Carya's index finger tapped the table regularly. Hengjiang will be completely wiped out!"

"Then this letter?"

"Send it to Xiongdu for a try." Kalya leaned on the chair relaxedly, "By the way, let the little emperor help us distinguish who is the real progressive nobleman."

........................

This was Poppy's seventh visit to Forsbarrow.

Looking at this city that was completely different from what he remembered, Bobby recalled the past few times he had come to Fossbarrow, and at the same time looked curiously at the people queuing up to enter Fossbarrow.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, these people speaking the accents of various places in the northern region came to the city of Fossbarrow and lined up in a crooked line to prepare to enter the city. But in Bobby's eyes, these people are very kind .

Inconsistencies in speech, habits, etc. are not a problem for her. When she decided to follow Oren, the team under Oren was also an out-and-out motley army.

What Bobby really cares about is those who are responsible for maintaining order.

It was a group of young people, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, all wearing uniform clothes, trying to maintain the order of the team with loud voices.

Bobby felt a natural kindness from these young people. Although they didn't look like the great heroes he was looking for, they should be good people. Maybe he could ask them about the great heroes?
Due to her short height, flexible enough movements, and natural lack of presence, Bobby slipped into Fossbarrow City easily. However, after entering the city, she did not rush to continue wandering, but relied Warhammer, waiting for these young men to finish their work.

Finally, at noon, a group of heavily armed soldiers came to replace these young people. The young people who had finally completed their tasks finally announced their disbandment after they gathered for roll call.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bobby stopped a few people who seemed to be easy to talk, and appeared in front of them on his own initiative.

"Hello!" Bobby waved to these young people, "May I ask you something?"

"!!"

Bobby's appearance was somewhat abrupt, so that several young people were startled—then, after they saw Bobby's appearance clearly, all of them showed excited expressions on their faces.

"Are you a yordle?"

"It must be a yordle!"

"How are you so sure?"

"Mr. Luowa told me that the appearance of yordles will have special magic fluctuations."

"Shut up, don't show off your talent anymore, I wish you pass the Archon exam!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a vicious curse, but unfortunately the curse is ineffective, I am very confident in myself..."

"Stop arguing!" Seeing that two companions began to chatter habitually again, a little girl in the team sighed helplessly, then bent down and looked at Bobby, "Are you Lost?"

"No, I'm looking for someone." Bobby shook his head lightly, "I'm looking for the unrivaled hero of Demacia."

Hearing Bobby's words, these young students all fell silent. They looked at me and I looked at you, with subtle expressions——and then, what Bobby never expected was that the one who had been arguing before The two young men puffed out their chests and walked in front of her in a tacit understanding.

"I am the future unrivaled hero!" x2
Seeing this scene, the little girl who was talking to Bobby couldn't help covering her face.

After the other students were stunned for a moment, they all watched the excitement and began to make noises—as students who are about to graduate, they are at the most energetic time, even though everyone is exhausted after a morning of social practice, but It seems that there is a good show to watch now, so of course we can't let it go!

Amid the applause, whistles and applause, the two confident middle school boys not only didn't feel embarrassed, but even became extra excited. They came to Bobby from left to right, and patted their chests to assure that they were The future hero of the world.

Seeing this scene, Bobby's big eyes were full of great doubts.

It seems that these two young people...weak?

But I don't know why, they seem to give themselves a feeling that they are very similar to those former Demacia heroes?

However, even with doubts in his heart, Bobby nodded quickly, and then flashed his warhammer.

"This holy hammer was born for the peerless hero of Demacia. Only this person has the ability to protect the unity and unity of Demacia." Bobby solemnly read out Oren's last instructions, "And I am here Looking for this unrivaled hero."

For adults, this passage sounds somewhat shameful; but for these young students, this passage is just right.

"So, how do you prove it?" The guy who was bigger and seemed to be at least five years older than his classmates took the initiative to ask, "Is there any great trial?"

"You need to pick it up first," Poppy explained very seriously, "before you can start the next step."

"That's it?" Hearing what Bobby said, a subtle, seemingly unsatisfied expression appeared on the other party's face, "Very well, it must be me!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and held the handle of the warhammer with both hands in a sideways posture, and his waist suddenly exerted force.

It can be seen that he has definitely undergone professional training. Although he is very proud in his mouth, when he does it, from posture to strength, he is very standard, and it is impossible to do it without hard training.

However, even though he had a standard posture and tried his best, the sledgehammer still stood quietly on the ground, motionless.

???

The big man was a little puzzled, he gritted his teeth, and exerted all his strength without reservation, but no matter how hard he tried, the war hammer still didn't respond, as if it had taken root, it still stood there firmly.

How could this be?
After three attempts, the big man finally let go of the hammer handle.

"So, this is the result of only brute force and no brains." Seeing this scene, the young man who had been bickering with him before finally showed a smile on his face, "It's better for me to come!"

With that said, he turned his head to look at Bobby.

"I thought, you don't mind if I use magic?"

Bobby nodded slightly.

The young man hooked the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, then took a deep breath, and quickly sketched in his palm.

The next moment, the bright hands were holding the handle of the war hammer, and just when he was about to take advantage of the situation to pick it up, the magical aura in his hand disappeared without warning!

Feeling the rapid depletion of magic power in his body, the young mage finally widened his eyes.

"High-purity rune steel?!"

　There will be a new episode tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but it's not a prequel, it's about Fucheng's past.
