LOL: The days of cultivating immortals in Rune Continent

Chapter 109 Don't Stop Me

A group of people were happily celebrating the birth of Hextech technology, and Jayce looked at several Zaun friends who were applauding him and gave them a thumbs up.

Without them, Hextech would not be successful.

Compared with the short-sighted and danger-fearing councilors, Jayce felt more excited by Zaun's scientific spirit of daring to explore and create.

So, is there anything I can do to help them in my own way?
If not for Zaun, then for these friends, Jayce felt that he had to do something.

"Next, we need to consider how to implement Hextech into various tools and expand the role of Hextech." Victor said loudly.

Singed held a Hextech gem with a look of amazement in his eyes. "I never thought that a small gem, after adding various mineral powders and drawing patterns, would burst out with such power."

"I think this magical power can first be used to improve transportation. It can promote more convenient transportation than burning coal and alchemical gas," said Singed.

"In short, with this invention, Jayce, Victor, you can earn more money than you can imagine, and perhaps also a higher position," Singed added. He raised the Hextech crystal, placed it in front of his scary eyes, squinted his bulging eyeballs and continued, "When everything requires the use of Hextech, Jayce, you can compete for a seat in parliament."

"Member of the Congress? Why should I be a member of the Congress?" Jace looked at Singed in confusion.

Why does he want to be a member of parliament?

During these days in Zaun, Jayce regained the joy he once had in making things. The so-called science is not for making more money or for a high position, but to help those in need.

This is also what Jayce learned from Viktor.

"Some things are not a matter of whether you want to do them or not." Hilco took over and spoke.

Jace blinked. He was a scientist, so why did these people want him to play politics?
Victor interrupted and said, "Everyone, right now, what we should do is to apply Hextech to various fields and see the effect of Hextech technology. So, let's not talk about those things for now."

Luo Wen also nodded and said with envy: "Can you make me a skateboard first? The kind that can fly."

"Flying skateboard?" Jace touched his chin, then he said cheerfully, "No problem, Rowan, Victor and I will take action right away. I think the flying skateboard you mentioned can be made with Hextech technology, which will be very promising!"

Seeing Rowan speaking, Hilco swallowed back the words he was about to say, and then he stared at Jace silently.

"Let's go, let's go have a drink first. I've been tired for a long time!" Jace said, raising his arms.

He generously embraced several of Hilco's men and said, "You can get drunk today. In the past, you all laughed at my poor alcohol tolerance, but today I want you to see how much I can drink!"

As they spoke, the group headed towards Fandel's tavern.

When it comes to drinking, there are many places in Zaun where you can drink, but if you want a good environment to drink, then there is only Vander's Tavern.

then
Vander stood there speechlessly, watching a group of Hillco's men walk towards the dark alley, but he did not stop them. Instead, he rubbed his hair in distress.

Then, Vandal saw Hilco.

"How long has it been since we last met?"

"It wasn't that long, Hilco. Just a few years."

"Yeah, it's only a few years. I say, Vander, how do you feel when you see this scene?" Hilco leaned against the wall and handed a cigar to Vander. Vander took it, then Hilco lit it for him and then lit one for himself.

The two men leaned against the wall, smoking cigars in silence. "It's hard to imagine that the nobles of Piltover would be willing to mingle with the people of Zaun. This is something I never thought of before." Vandel said dimly.

Hilco gave a faint smile, "Didn't we get along well before?"

"We haven't seen each other for so long, and you're still joking?" Vander turned his head and looked at Hilco and said.

Then, Fandel was silent for a long time, puffing on his cigar, and said, "Don't think about controlling Jace. You can't do it."

"If the Demacians weren't involved, he definitely wouldn't be able to run away. If he wanted to run, I would chop off his legs. If he wanted to talk to the people in the upper city, I would cut off his tongue. But now, I won't do anything." Hillco spread his hands and said calmly.

"It certainly sounds like something you would do." Vander smiled.

Hilco is even more cruel than him. When he gets crazy, even Vander is afraid of him.

"What about you? You're not going to do anything?" Hilco looked at Vander.

Fandel shook his head: "I will do nothing. The only thing I have to do now is to raise Wei and Baobao."

"Let them grow up in this kind of environment?" Hilco sneered.

"It's better than becoming a victim of politics before you grow up."

"But they are already victims of politics. The inaction of the parliamentarians has prevented the children of Zaun from growing up normally. Even the air we breathe is filled with poisonous fog. How can we expect our children to grow up?" Hilco kicked the wall and continued, "Vandel, Zaun must be independent. The people of Piltover must agree to Zaun's autonomy. Otherwise, nothing we say will work."

"So whose life are you going to use to fill the gap?" Vander asked Hilco. He threw the cigar away, stomped it out, and looked Hilco straight in the eyes.

Hilco also threw away his cigar, spread his hands, and said lightly: "Your life, my life, their lives, can all be filled in. As long as Zaun can be independent, it is worth it no matter how many people die."

"This will only lead to a bigger war." Fandel frowned.

He led the Zaun people to attack the bridge in the same way back then, and the result was obvious. Apart from the corpses of Zaun people all over the ground, they got nothing. Zaun did not gain dignity or independence, but instead Piltover treated Zaun even more harshly.

And Hilco took out a potion and whispered, "We already have the capital to start a war with Piltover. Hextech, and... my Glimmer."

"In short, you can do nothing, but if you want to be a turtle, then don't be a turtle that gets in the way. You can be the king of your dark alley, and I won't stop you, but you shouldn't stop me from doing what I do." Hilco reached out and patted Vander's shoulder, then walked past Vander.

He did not follow the crowd to the Fugen Tavern, but disappeared silently into the haze with his hands in his pockets.

Vander looked at Hilco's back and felt a headache. He reached out and hit the wall, then returned to the Fugen Tavern.

The pub was bustling.
Jayce had taken off his shirt and was standing at the bar drinking with others. Rowan and Viktor were discussing something, while Vi pulled Lux ​​to her and Bakugo's room.

Fandel watched this scene.
Let out a long sigh.

“I don’t know how long this hard-earned peace can last.”

Vander laughed at himself, then he also picked up the bottle and drank it down in one gulp.

Don't be sad, because today's Zaun is better than yesterday.
No?
