Runeterra is so much fun!

Chapter 45·43

Entering the car, Qiyana didn't do any tricks, but seriously asked about the process of hunting the dragon.

Facing Qiyana's inquiry, Yuan Chen answered in as much detail as possible.However, regarding Canglan Xinghuo, Yuan Chen still chose to conceal it, but shifted the role of this part to Nidalee.

"A lion emitting the light of dawn? Why haven't I heard of such a monster before..."

Qiyana thought with some doubts.

Ixtar is far away from the secular world. Although it covers only half of Demacia, due to the natural environment, it is inhabited by nearly 70.00% of the world's known elemental drakes.

In this case, let alone those elemental sacred beasts whose strength is even higher than that of the elemental dragons, like demigods...

Although Ixtar has been established as a country for a long time, until now, it can only operate in the outskirts of the shady jungle.Why can't it go deeper?Because even for Ixtar, the Misty Jungle is too dangerous.

On the surface, Runeterra looks mediocre, except for the hidden demigods and holy beasts, it seems to be the magical Middle Ages.But in reality, there is never much to hide.

"The lion turned into a human being, and shot through the dragon's chest with a spear. Then, Mordas and I seized the opportunity and stabbed the spear into the dragon's heart."

Yuan Chen didn't deliberately mention the difference between the elemental dragon and the giant dragon, and Qiyana didn't mention it either.Because for ordinary people, there is no difference between a dragon and a dragon, both are powerful and invincible.

For this reason, the propaganda that killing a giant dragon is obviously more morale-boosting than killing a dragon.After all, you emphasized that you killed a sub-dragon. Some people may think that you just killed a dragon-born subspecies like dragon blood hounds and dragon blood horses.

After hearing Yuan Chen's narration, Qiyana was also silent for a long time, and finally said with a sigh: "It sounds like a heroic story..."

"Fate is always full of fun."

After saying that, Yuan Chen paused, and added: "We will present the dragon in your name."

"..." Wen Yan was silent, Qiyana didn't feel excited, but pursed her lips, and said with some doubts: "Why did you do this? For me? Or for yourself?"

"All."

Yuan Chen said: "My predictive magic is very good, and I see many troublesome disasters in the future. If Ixtar can integrate into the world and communicate with the outside world, then Runeterra will have more power in the face of these disasters." .”

"Of course, I won't be courteous as a dragon slayer."

Yuan Chen said calmly: "This identity will make my future actions much more convenient."

"No problem, but I seem to have made a mistake." Qiyana said with a strange expression:
"Ixtar is isolated from the world. Even if I take the initiative to help you spread the word, it is only within the territory of Ixtar. If you want to spread it outside... at least you must have a close connection with the outside world."

"I have a way."

"What way?" Qiyana was a little curious.

Facing Qiyana's question, Yuan Chen said: "Piltover...they should have already started trying to develop the border of Ixtar, right?"

Hearing Yuan Chen talk about Piltover, Qiyana's eyes flashed a look of disgust, not against Yuan Chen, but purely against Piltover.

"Hmmm... Those guys who use dirty machines to drive magic are indeed destroying the woodland. What do you say they do? Have them push down the curtain of vines? This will indeed make a connection between Ixtar and Piltover."

"Ixtar will stop at nothing to destroy them!"

"Don't be so angry, your emotions are too strong." Feeling Qiyana's dislike for Piltover, Yuan Chen was not surprised.

Piltover, Telecommunications District [-], is a prosperous and progressive city, built along the sea, mastering the only trade channel between the continents of Valoran and Shurima, the wealth brought by sea trade once brought unprecedented impetus to the growth of the city effect.

And with the appearance of the Hextech Flying Gate, this place has become a trade transfer station for the whole world.

Trade brings wealth, wealth brings prosperity, and prosperity brings art.Therefore, Piltover is also the cultural center of Valoran.Here, art, craft, trade and innovation go hand in hand.

More and more inventors are eagerly pursuing cutting-edge hextech knowledge, and now Piltover has become a natural magnet for skilled craftsmen from all over the world.

As for the resources needed in the research and development process, apart from trade from all over the world, there is also the mining of nearby areas.

Shurima is rich in mineral deposits, and the mountains to the east of Shurima are even more so.Once, the workers of Piltover only mined in the Kumangu Mountains.And now, with dwindling resources, they have begun to move towards Ixtar.

In Ixtal, which advocates nature, Piltover's brutal exploitation of natural resources and deforestation are simply unreasonable.

Especially Qiyana, she felt that this was an invasion of her territory.She wants to fight back, but it is a pity that Ixtar's traditional concepts such as isolationism and escapism have profoundly affected this country.

For this reason, Ixtar only secretly destroyed the Piltover's machinery through elemental magic, and tried his best to avoid such direct contact and communication.

With the emergence of Hex Technology, the demand for resources in Piltover today has greatly increased, and even the mining equipment has been upgraded and iterated by inventors.

"Since you are planning to become the queen of Ixtar, you'd better restrain your character and temper."

"why?"

Qiyana asked dissatisfied.

"Because you are not strong enough, and you have not gained an advantage in the battle for crown prince." Yuan Chen explained:

"Since we are still at the trough of the battle for the crown prince, we should unite those who can unite, make more friends and fewer enemies, let neutrals see our value, and then invest in us to increase interests."

After saying that, after a pause, Yuan Chen said with a strange expression:
"Born in the royal family, shouldn't you have known these rules of the game?"

She was listening, but when she heard Yuan Chen's question, Qiyana immediately wanted to refute, but subconsciously thought of her father's appointment during the Elements Festival.

Even said, not just a letter of appointment...

In addition to the letter of appointment, the father said more than once that he broke the rules...

No... It's not that I broke the rules, my sister is not as good as me, but I am not as good as me!Nothing to do with the rules!
Thinking of this, Qiyana's eyes were also full of stubbornness.

"Cut, it's just that I'm too lazy to use this method..."

Indeed a child.

Seeing Qiyana struggling to admit the fact that she didn't realize this matter, Yuan Chen rubbed the center of his brows with a headache...

In politics, he is a pure layman.The truth can be said, but in terms of practical operation... Well, I will find some foreign aid from Lupera later.

Thinking about it, Yuan Chen said: "For this aspect, I can only offer some simple suggestions and principles. However, I do have some ideas and experiences of my own regarding Picheng."

"You want to use them?" Qiyana said hesitantly: "This is not a good thing, the Yuntals hate this group of upstarts with no connotation."

"Neither the Yuntal nor the Ixtal civilians have had direct communication with outsiders. The so-called dislikes and likes are just inherent concepts based on stereotypes."

Yuan Chen said: "Piltover is the closest external civilization to Ixtar, and it is also the trade center of the entire world. Regardless of the perspective, there is a need for communication."

"And the final result of communication depends on how we guide..."

"..."

Hearing Yuan Chen's words, Qiyana did not speak, but asked with some doubts after a moment of silence:
"Why are you so confident? You obviously can't be sure, right?"

Qiyana was a little puzzled, why Yuan Chen was so confident.

Obviously, I feel that this matter has a huge risk.

"If no one believes, let yourself believe in yourself." Yuan Chen said bluntly: "Didn't you do the same? Or, you just said that you can do it, but in fact you don't..."

"Enough! Don't lecture me here!" Hearing that Yuan Chen wanted to make use of it, Qiyana rubbed her brows in despair and said:

"I don't have any problems! I, Qiyana, am the perfect one! I never doubt myself!"

Even though he said that, but lowered his head, Qiyana's eyes were full of complexity.

And Yuan Chen didn't bother, just let Qiyana deal with her emotions quietly there.

After a while, taking a deep breath, Qiyana raised her head and closed her eyes and said, "How long will it be until the convoy reaches Ixoken?"

"There are almost four days left, just in time for the opening of the Elements Festival."

"Four days? Too slow, can't you speed it up?"

"No way, the caravan transporting the giant dragon is not strong. It was temporarily refitted from the Dragon Hunting Bed Crossbow. If the speed is too fast, it is prone to accidents in the environment of Ixtar. What's more, there are villagers' baggage behind. It has been four days. Because there is the fastest time to level the road with road guards."

After hearing Yuan Chen's explanation, Qiyana nodded in understanding, and then said:

"In this case... then let's go to Ixoken first."

"Ok?"

Hearing Qiyana's words, Yuan Chen showed some doubts in his eyes.

Regarding this, Qiyana jumped out of the car with great interest.

Facing the woodland on the side with a ring blade, the bushes in the jungle began to bend with the rotation of the ring blade, and the bushes fell down a little with each turn.

Like life, the dwarf trees separated to the two sides, and the roots and stems jumped out of the ground, bringing up small pieces of soil, revealing a narrow and flat path.

"Come on! My servant! This is my first appearance! I have to go back and get ready!"
