Don't mess with the yordle

Chapter 232 Opening Ceremony

Two days later, the opening ceremony of the "Bandle City Academy of Science and Progress Branch" will be held. This day is destined to become the most colorful day in the history of the two cities of Piltover and Zaun, although at this time the twins The residents of the city didn't realize it at all.

It's just a school that has opened. Although it was built by the Yodels, so what?

At this moment, the only people who really care about this matter are the residents of the lower urban areas of Piltover and the residents of the lower class of Zaun. In other words, they are the people at the bottom of the two cities and the oppressed ones. The person with the highest status is also the person with the largest base.

Regardless of whether they are registered or not, regardless of whether there are children in the family who are admitted, those who came here to watch the "opening ceremony" today made the law enforcement officials in Piltover very nervous, because there are a large number of Zaun people in the school. Gathering here, they must always be on guard against accidents.

In fact, the lower urban area of ​​Piltover has always been a very lively place, because although it is also within the jurisdiction of Piltover, it is not managed as strictly. Of course, Compared with the chaos in Zaun, it must be much stronger.

But this can also be said to be the most inclusive area in Piltover. Demacians, Noxians, and Shurimans, the people who live here temporarily also come from all over "Runeland" , Of course, they must at least have a legal identity, unlike Zaun's ruthlessness, where all kinds of "criminals", "thieves", and "pirates" are rampant.

The "new" yordles are the most special among them, because they are the only ones who have broken the "hidden rules" of Piltover, truly planned a "territory" of their own here, and truly settled down. .

The "territory" here naturally refers to the "Bander Community" and the "Bander City Academy of Science and Progress Branch".

The reason for saying this is that it is basically impossible for businessmen from other places to buy ownership of a large piece of land in Piltover. The best among them has at most one leased shop. Even most people can only set up stalls in markets in lower urban areas and cannot even get their own shops.

Piltover was Mrs. Piltover's Piltover, and that was more than just words.

Although it is known as the "City of Progress", this former seaport city of Shurima is not progressive at all. As a city with independent sovereignty, its "immigration policy" is obviously somewhat exclusive. Foreigners can only "residence". right”, and may not even be considered a “right of residence”.

Although there are no express regulations, it can be seen from the resistance encountered by the yordle people when they are preparing to settle.

For those "business families" who have carved up most of Piltover's interests, any external force is the object of their boycott. Piltover already has enough "players" and they will not allow it. Outsiders intervened, but it was obvious that the Yodles had thicker wrists, so they had to make compromises.

For people from other countries who make a living here, this is naturally a very enviable and shocking thing, but it is obvious that their countries will not give them this kind of support, and even if it does, it may not necessarily it works.

When Noxus invaded the continent of Shurima, Piltover, which was able to collect "tolls" and was extremely painful to the Noxians, was actually not that easy to handle.

Otherwise, those belligerent Noxians would have already started to pull out this nail. How could Piltover be able to secure its position in such an important strategic location without any strength?

"Victor! I'm here!"

Jess Tallis passed through the crowd and finally found Victor leaning against the wall helplessly at the corner of the school gate.

There were really too many people here today, and the whole block was crowded with people watching the excitement, including Zaun people, Mrs. Piltover, and residents from all over the lower urban area. After all, "Bandle City Science and Technology "Progress Academy Branch" does not only admit students with registered residence in Zaun and Piltover. These non-residents who "reside" in Piltover and Zaun can also send their children to school.

"There are too many people, I can't get in at all." After seeing Jace Tallis, the helpless Victor breathed a sigh of relief and showed a very helpless smile. His thin body didn't even have a limp. Even with my legs, it was difficult to move forward among this chaotic crowd.

"I'll take you in."

Jess Tallis is different from Victor. Although the two are similar in age, Jess Tallis is much stronger than Victor. Although Mr. Tallis has no intention of letting his son succeed him, in order to prevent In case, in order to prevent his son from starving to death in the future, he has been cultivating his son's "hammer forging" ability.

As a scientist, there is a reason why Jess Tallis will be able to dance "Mercury's Hammer" very well in the future. This is the foundation he has laid since childhood.

"Thank you."

Seeing Jace easily pushing through the crowd to open a path, a trace of imperceptible envy flashed in Victor's eyes. If he could, of course he would want to be as strong as Jace, but that was obviously impossible.

Jess took Victor and rushed all the way into the "Bander City Academy of Science and Progress Branch". Well, because Victor was "holding back", he definitely didn't rush very fast.

And this also caused Jace to expend more effort to push passers-by away. He had no choice but to expect the passers-by around him to get out of the way with quality. Obviously, he was thinking too much.

"Thank you, Jace."

Seeing the tired and panting Jace, Victor sheepishly thanked him again, but Jace just waved his hand.

"You're welcome, we're friends, aren't we?"

Jace smiled and patted Victor on the shoulder. He liked this classmate from Zaun very much. He was one of the few peers who could connect with him on the radio. Unlike those naive children, Victor could understand his thoughts. .

The two of them hit it off immediately and were always able to reach an agreement. Although they had not known each other for a long time, they had already established a friendship during the few days they followed Professor Heimerdinger.

"Yes, we are friends."

When it comes to the word "friend", Victor obviously feels more, because he lacks more of this kind of emotion than Jess. If I have to say it, Jess is probably his first friend, even if their life circumstances Not the same.

"Let's go, the professor is still waiting for us. I heard that Master Reed will also come today. I have been curious about him for a long time!"

Jess was very excited because Master Reed would be attending the opening ceremony.
