LOL: Summoner of Goddess Jana

Chapter 67 The Zaan Need Fist

The "third hand" behind Victor turned out to be just a Hex laser welding gun.

Caitlin really believed it when she first heard it.

Because she and Jess are childhood sweethearts, and Victor and Jess are life-saving friends, and they are the best partners to jointly lead the Hextech application research research group.

So through daily contact with Jess, Caitlin also indirectly learned about the cutting-edge technology project that he and Victor are currently working on.

According to Jess:

They are planning to further apply Hex technology to create various Hex industrial production tools that can help workers reduce labor and improve production efficiency.

For example, the "Hex Super Miner's Gloves" can help miners easily move heavy objects and crush ore rocks.

For example, the "Hex laser robotic arm" can help welders avoid extreme heat and weld quickly, and help firefighters cut steel bars and break obstacles.

The "third hand" on Victor's back should be the latter.

Well, nothing surprising, just an "upgraded welding torch" for workers.It is essentially no different from the hammer and pliers in the hands of workers, both of which are harmless to humans and animals
Harmless ghost!
"This is a murder weapon, right?!" Looking at the huge iron ingot that was easily cut in half by the laser, and the molten steel that was still dripping slowly from the cut surface, the corners of Caitlin's mouth twitched. twitch.

This thing is dangerous.Deadlier than any weapon she had ever seen.

"Professor Victor—" Caitlin became vigilant in an instant: "You are weaponizing Hex technology!"

This is a very serious charge.

Because Professor Heimerdinger, who dominates the scientific community in Piltover, has been firmly and unequivocally opposed to the weaponization of Hextech.

However, most scientists in the academic world do not want their inventions to be reduced to murder weapons out of purely humanitarian thoughts;
Some people think that the Hex Technology has not been born for a few years, and the magical energy contained in the Hex Gem is not yet completely stable, and it would be risky to weaponize it hastily;
Some, out of political and interest considerations, are unwilling to turn Hextech into a weapon that can affect the game of war, making Piltover, as a "permanent neutral country", further involved in the terrifying geopolitical struggles of great powers.

In conclusion, most scientists currently do not support the weaponization of hextech.

Jess, and even Victor himself before yesterday, were typical representatives of this school of scientists.

But now, he converted the production tool he invented into a killing tool, and took the lead in the research of Hextech weapons.

"Professor Victor." Caitlin frowned seriously: "Why do you want to conduct such a dangerous weapon test?"

"Shouldn't you be Jess' friend, a staunch anti-weapon faction?"

"I" Victor has a complicated expression.

He was indeed reluctant to do any research related to weapons development before.

He worked hard to invent these Hex equipment for the sake of the poor in the hometown of Zaun, in order to use technology to promote social progress and improve the quality of life of compatriots.

For example, Victor used to think this way:

Many people in Zaan work in the mines, digging and carrying the mines with their flesh and blood every day. Not to mention the exhaustion, it is easy to cause physical damage due to overwork.

So as long as he invents the "Hex Super Miner's Gloves", Zaun miners can easily dig ore and move huge rocks, allowing them to save energy, improve efficiency, and have more time to rest.

But yesterday, Li Wei woke him up.

Victor suddenly realized that if he didn't change this turbid world, then his invention of the best production tools would have limited meaning.

The "Hexy Super Miner's Gloves" that increase the work efficiency of miners by ten times will not increase the income of miners by ten times and reduce their working hours by ten times.

It would just leave [-] out of [-] miners out of work, sent to die in Zaun's stinking gutters.

"The Zaunites don't need hexminer gloves right now, they need hexarmor gloves."

"Business owners don't understand other languages, and Zaunites can only talk to them with their fists."

Victor remembered what Levi said.

Weapons are dangerous, but the people of Zaun need them.

Only by using this gauntlet to blast the enemies into the sky one by one, can the people of Zaun safely use Hextech for mining.

"Yes, I'm doing Hex weapon research." Under Caitlin's vigilant gaze, Victor finally admitted generously.

"This..." Caitlin frowned: "Does Jess and Professor Heimerdinger know?"

"They don't know," Victor replied.

"Then I have to tell Principal Heimerdinger about this and let him judge whether your behavior is appropriate." Caitlin still warned without mercy like a strict and rigid law enforcement officer: "If the situation is serious , maybe our Piltover Police Department will also intervene in the investigation."

"Wait, Miss Caitlin." Victor persuaded her.

But he didn't explain the weapon research, but asked thoughtfully: "You should come to the school to see Professor Heimerdinger, and talk about the Iron Fist Gang and Sheriff Marcus?"

"How do you know?" Caitlin really cared.

"It's not difficult to guess." Victor replied: "If you want to fight against the existing order in Piltover, the only person you can hope for is Councilor Heimerdinger."

"And, if I'm not wrong, Professor Heimerdinger should refuse your request."

From student to teaching assistant to colleague, Victor has been with Heimerdinger for more than ten years.He could have predicted how Heimerdinger would react to this.

"You're right, Professor Victor has already rejected me." Caitlin admitted helplessly.

It turns out that everyone can see that she is bound to fail, and she is the only one who is still foolishly persisting.

"Then what are you going to do next?" Victor asked, "Continue to investigate?"

Caitlin was silent.

She didn't think about it herself.

She would not be reconciled if she didn't investigate; but if she continued to investigate, what would be the use of it?
She wasn't fighting the little Iron Fists at all, but the underground order of Piltover.

"It seems that you are at your wit's end, Miss Caitlin."

"Are you laughing at me?" Caitlin clenched her fists unwillingly.

"No, I want to tell you—" Victor paused slightly: "If your method doesn't work, maybe you can try our method."

"Your solution?" Caitlin was slightly taken aback.

Then she realized in time that she came in out of curiosity when she heard these students mention the three words "Iron Fist Gang".

It is not difficult to judge from the context that they are also enemies of the Iron Fist.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend.

Although she didn't know what enmity Victor and these students had with the Iron Fist Gang, Caitlin couldn't help asking:
"Do you have a way to deal with the Iron Fist?"

"Yes." Victor replied.

"What way?" Caitlin was a little self-defeating: "I went to the homes of all the supreme councilors, and no one was willing to support my investigation."

"Professor Heimerdinger has nothing to do with them, so why do you?"

"Based on this." Victor shook his "third hand".

Lina and her classmates also steadily picked up the machine guns and cannons they built with their own hands, swaying a murderous smell.

"Can this deal with the Iron Fist?"

Caitlin: "..."

Now she understood why Victor and the others wanted to build weapons.

This can really deal with the Iron Fist.

"But it can't handle the people behind the Iron Fists."

After feeling the high morale of the students, Caitlin was really excited.It's like a lone hero who charged to the enemy's position alone has finally found a comrade who can fight side by side with him.

But she wakes up just in time:
"Professor Victor, and students, although I don't know what kind of grievances you have with the Iron Fist Gang, I still advise you to calm down."

"If you take these things and go out to fight with the Iron Fist, even if you can win, the result will only be... you will only be suppressed and arrested by the law enforcement officers."

Having said that, Caitlin's expression was a bit complicated.

She is obviously a law enforcement officer.But why under this topic, she unconsciously sided with a group of "criminals" who wanted to engage in illegal armed forces in Picheng?
The law enforcement officer of Piltover, who was supposed to be on the side of justice, was called a bad person by her instead.

"Miss Caitlin, you are right. Even if our guns can defeat the Iron Fists, they cannot defeat the people behind the Iron Fists."

Victor saw that she was struggling, so he took the opportunity to ask:

"But what if there are people above us?"

ha?Are there people above you?
Caitlin looked puzzled at the weak-tempered Victor and the group of students in school uniforms.

It would be absurd for this group of people to take up their guns inexplicably and fight with the Iron Fist Gang.

How could anyone support them in their madness?Who?It can't be Professor Heimerdinger, can it?

"It's you, Miss Caitlin Gillamane."

Just when the righteous Piltover policewoman was guessing in amazement, Victor sent her an even more absurd and shocking invitation:
"My students and I are preparing a new gang."

"Are you interested in being our umbrella?"
