Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

"Because, if it fails, the heart is broken. How many people care if Zaun belongs to Piltwar. Jace, we have to ask ourselves, do we really want to solve Zaun's problems? Compromise, peace, Mutual aid...would that be a better solution?" Mel smiled.

Having stayed in Piltover for so many years, she knows all too well what the people here think.

As a great noble, whether it is Myrdalda or Philos, they only care about whether their family benefits.

And the little nobles below, although they have to rely on them, they also have their own thoughts and interests. If Zaun can easily destroy them, they are definitely the best catalyst. But on the other hand, if the other party is too strong, so strong that they will be threatened with life, then face is not so important, and it is them who are most likely to defect.

The middle-class people go with the flow, and they will do whatever the above says. But because the interests of Piltover were divided by most of the nobles, God knows how many of these people are involved with Zaun, and they all have to rely on the profits given there to survive, and they don't want to go to war at all.

Among them, those who are willing to go to war are more afraid of those who have defected a long time ago, hoping to use this to reshuffle the cards.

The thinking of ordinary people is even simpler. War means going to the battlefield, or it means endless work in weapons factories. They have enjoyed comfort for too long, and they have long lost their blood.

Not to mention that they were the best at weighing the pros and cons, and if Piltover was no worse off being defeated by Zaun than participating in the war, how could they possibly be willing to fight for it.

Jace also thought of this, but he was speechless for a while.

Let alone other people, is he really the split between the two cities? Does he care about Zaun that much?

Really, why did he propose to strengthen his defenses against Zaun?

Jace raised his head and looked at Zaun not far away.

Seems like... the night Victor left.

It seems... when I saw Victor again, he couldn't even beat the two robots made by the other side.

So...he is not any better than other MPs after all, not for Zaun in Piltover, just to prove to his former partner that he is not weaker than him.

"Mel... what should I do..."

Jace's words were full of hesitation, he didn't know what to do.

Zaun may be stronger than Piltover in the future, but that is the future of Zaun.

Now, do they really want to risk the reluctance of the people and do their best to attack Zuan? Just to eliminate a threat?

When did it start... Piltover, a symbol of advancement and progress, is afraid that others will surpass it.

"Jess, Myrdalda is always willing to prepare funds for you to recruit workers. But I have to know what you really want so that I can help you."

Mel stood beside Jace, held the opponent's hand, and looked at Zaun on the other side with him.

There was worry in her eyes, but more encouragement to Jace.

With Ryan's intervention, she didn't have so much time for Jace to grow up. She has to break the other person's unrealistic willfulness and do something that really helps Piltover.

The other party is the future she chose to give to Piltover. She believes that now is the best time to grow up.

Jace closed his eyes for a long time, and finally all his thoughts turned into a sigh, shook his head, and suddenly opened his eyes.

At this moment, there is no confusion in his eyes.

Piltover

"I'm a little bit of a demon. Piltover has never been afraid of war, but he won't take the initiative to provoke war. The best way to prove us is to protect our current peace. We can't let our people be the tip of a knife and lick blood. The war machine, otherwise it's no different from what Piltover once did to Zaun."

"Do you have a goal?"

Mel looked at Jace's face and understood that this man had stepped out of the vicious circle of stubbornness.

"Piltover owes Zaun a lot, and their independence is understandable, but we belong to Piltover, and we can't be troubled by the other side, so developing a military to deal with threats is still a must. But we have to think of a new way to play Piltover's advantage as a progressive city."

As he spoke, Jace's eyes suddenly lit up:

"I have a new idea. I originally wanted to follow Victor's path of making machines, but my new idea may be better than his machine flow."

"Let's hear it? That must be a great idea."

Mel smiled and praised first.

"Change all the law enforcement officers."

Jess regained his confidence on the face and talked eloquently:

"Forge weapons that can withstand hex gems, not only for long-range shooting, but also for close combat. Law enforcement officers fighting with new weapons will definitely increase their combat effectiveness, and it does not require more manpower To participate, as long as the current artisans and the students of the academy are enough.”

"This is a good idea. Myrdalda is willing to bear all the expenses of your experiment and make the best weapon for you," Mel promised.

"I already have my own hammer, but as Viktor said before, it's only a half-finished product. The real finished product should also strengthen my melee strength, and even strengthen my physique. Oh, yes, the previous Viktor robot idea. That's fine, put an electric current on the hammer so it's hard for others to get close."

"But if you choose this path~www.readwn.com~ Myrdalda can only provide financial and material assistance." Mel looked at him with a smile.

"That's enough, I remember one of the relevant materials... What's his name?"

Jace rubbed his chin and thought for a while.

Suddenly, he punched his fist with excitement on his face:

"Yes, there is a material called Mercury's Stone. If it can be fused with Hexite and my hammer, then my vision will be realized."

"The Stone of Mercury... a very good name, I will let them pay attention." Mel quipped, "Maybe in the future your hammer can be called the Hammer of Mercury, and it will be our guardian of Piltover, Jess. exclusive weapons, like Heimerdinger's cutting-edge turrets."

"I didn't think about it that much, but I have to hurry up, and I don't want to be left too far by Victor. By the way, in addition to weapons, the research on armor-type hex armor must also be put on the agenda. Imagine if every All the lawmen are wearing hex suits, so how safe do they have to be."

"The law enforcement officers all look like big stupid bears." Seeing Jace's cheerfulness, Mel couldn't help but tease.

"Hahaha." Jess put his hand on the back of his head, thinking of the scene at that meeting, he couldn't help laughing, "Then I have to design it carefully, lest I become that big stupid bear leading the team in the future."

"You are a bear baby at best, learn to walk before you run." Mel reminded with a smile.

"I know, so time waits for no one, we have to start now!"

Saying that, Jace pulled Mel and trotted towards his laboratory.

In his eyes at the moment, he is full of excitement to compete with his former partner, and...

Guard all the determinations of Piltover now!
