Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

A dark blue light lit up from his ring and eyes, and a huge rune magic circle wrapped the roof, and the runes rose in strings.

In the magic-filled rune circle, Shirco felt that it was difficult to breathe, and looked at Ryan who was casting spells in shock.

hum! !

The brilliance of the rune shone soon before dissipating, but in Ryan's hand, there was a strange mechanical claw.

"This is..."

Victor looked at the Hex masterpiece in Ryan's hand with a slightly complicated expression.

Hex crystal is an unstable natural source of magical energy, and on this basis, he and Jace improved it and created a hex gem that can provide stable energy.

And the mechanical claw in Ryan's hand that can be loaded on his shoulders is powered by hex gems. Not only is it as flexible as the third hand of the human body, but it can also emit high-energy rays that cut iron like mud.

It was supposed to be shown on Evolution Day, but because of Jace, it might have to be forever.

"The weapon that suits you best, with the last process added, it's the finished product."

Ryan ignored the presence of Sirco at all, his fingers flashed blue light that symbolized magic, and he wrote some complicated strokes in the air, forming a mysterious rune.

The rune slowly fell, attached to the heart of the robotic claw, and permanently attached to the Hex gem.

"In addition to making the crystal more stable and drawing more energy in a single shot, I also added the rune of the magic force field. When you receive accidental damage, the force field will automatically open and freeze everything around you. ."

Seeing Victor skillfully installing the robotic arm on his shoulder, Ryan smiled and said:

"The force field is not easy to test, let's try the power of the ray now."

Victor nodded, and under everyone's attention, the hand of the manipulator turned and aimed at an iron pole 10 meters away.

Cheers!

The orange-yellow ray reached the iron rod in the blink of an eye, and the manipulator moved horizontally, and the iron rod that the man hugged was instantly cut into two pieces.

Seeing the effect of the explosion in front of him, Victor couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The original intention of the original design was to facilitate the carving by craftsmen."

Shirko looked at the falling iron rod in horror, and fear for Noxus emerged in his heart.

You call this a crafting tool for craftsmen? Don't all craftsmen have such destructive power?

Does that mean that miners have to wear a glove that can carry 10,000 kilograms, and can smash the mine into pieces with one punch?

At this moment, he was deeply aware of Zaun's weakness.

The gap between such a powerful empire as Zaun and Noxus is obviously not a star.

He took back those thoughts he shouldn't have, and put on a friendly face:

"This housekeeper, what's your name? We still need to help each other in the future. If you have anything to do with me, please feel free to mention it."

"Weiss, just call me Mr. Butler."

"Mr. Butler, you have to worry about the Sevika robotic arm." Hilko said.

On the other hand, Sevika forced a smile on her face, bowing her head to Victor. This wasn't Katerina with knives, she didn't want to be cut in half.

Seeing this scene, Victor nodded silently, feeling a little uncomfortable.

what is this?

In less than an hour, from a research assistant to a steward who controls the fate of Zaun, is this the confidence brought by Noxus?

A lot of things I understand in my heart, and real experience are really not the same thing at all...

Piltover and Zaun said it was not big, and he had met Shirko and Sevika a few times.

But every time they meet, he always looks like a research assistant who walks away, while they are powerful and powerful local snakes.

Now, seeing the two of them show respect in front of him, his mentality has inevitably changed.

His eyes looked back at Ryan, his eyes were full of gratitude, he wanted to say something, but he saw the other side smiling and waving his hand:

"Okay, I'll leave the rest to Wes. He can represent my will. Noxus doesn't look down on Zaun, and we will be a win-win."

"I understand!" Shirko looked relieved, "Sir, I will show you Zaun's sincerity at night."

"Your will... and win-win...?"

Victor met Ryan's gaze, as if he understood something, and bowed his head to greet him.

After Ryan finished speaking, the rune rose from his body again, and Katarina turned into a little bit of light and dissipated.

"Sevika, you know how to do it."

After Ryan left, Silko said a few words, and started to lead the way, preparing to take Victor to his temporary residence.

"Ms. Sevika..."

Victor's eyes flickered, and he stopped the dark-skinned woman who was about to climb down the window:

"Let me repair the robotic arm for you first. In order to face the strong enemy of Picheng, you need to maintain your best condition."

"You have the final say."

Severka grinned, picked up the broken robotic arm with one hand, and followed Victor and the two.

"Mr. Butler, what materials do you need?"

"Hundred kilograms of iron ore, it would be best if you have Picheng-grade steel. Her equipment design is not subtle enough, and the shimmering medicine can be stored inside the arm, instead of being injected during wartime."

Having said that, Viktor mentioned several types of forging equipment that can be found in Picheng.

"We have all of these. I can give you the mechanical-grade steel right now. How long does it take? I have to show that Your Excellency my sincerity tonight."

Silko brought Victor into a fairly tidy room, and immediately ordered Sevika to prepare the materials.

"An hour is enough, now I care about another thing."

Victor turned around and held a cane with one hand. His body was extremely thin due to his injury, but he was inexplicably imposing.

"I think we should get to know each other, right, Mr. Butler."

With a smile on his face, Sirco raised two wooden stools, and when Victor sat down, he sat on the other one.

"I think that Your Excellency should still have orders. Is there anything I can do for you? In Zaan, I still have so much thin noodles."

"You'll know this right away, before that..."

Victor had a serious face and stared at Shirko:

"I want to know what you think of the future of Picheng and Zaun. I have seen your deeds. You once overthrew Vander under the banner of revitalizing Zaun. But in the past few years, he has been holding back and became another Vander, still the one who would bully the Zaun."

"Bullying the Zauan people? I never did that." Shirko sneered, "Others can slander me, but don't take me and Vanderby, I want to revive Zu more than he does. install."

Victor was unmoved and said lightly, "He organized a bridge crossing at least ten years ago, how about you?"

"Yeah, rush to the border bridge, break into Piltover and use force to get justice." Shirko became emotional, and his face was a little grim, "But it's already bloody, why do you still want it? Choose to be weak? Zaun would never be what he is today as long as he rushed to the end."

Hearing these words, Victor fell silent.

He was already a student of Heimerdinger when Vander created the turmoil.

He used to be very simple. Hearing Heimerdinger say that violence cannot solve problems, he agreed in his heart.

But...recalling that time, Heimerdinger also said...any threat to the peace of Piltover should be eliminated, and then he learned that...

"At that time, there were three members of the parliament who agreed to reach a settlement with Zaun. If you fight again, you have a good chance of success."

So... Vander was one step away from success, but chose to back off.

"Yeah, that's what I thought too. After that incident, the Piltover MP approached him, telling jokes that Zaun couldn't win. Vanderthal believed it at the time, and has since huddled with him. The tavern, doing cowardly waste."

Silko took a deep breath,

"So, I killed Vander, and I want to vote for myself."

"But you didn't do it later." Victor looked suspicious.

He felt that the truth of Zaan in recent years was slowly being revealed, which allowed him to understand his hometown from another perspective, instead of shouting empty words such as using technology to change people's livelihood.
