As Lux directly expressed her intention to take back the Sun Gate, the situation outside the parliament building instantly became tense.
As for Piltover, the councilors present immediately started making noises - even when they faced the Noxians just now, they were not as excited as they are now.
However, this is not incomprehensible.
After all, the Noxians have never had any precedent of confiscating property. For most of the conquered people, the Noxians' policy has always been to not look back on the past. Even if Piltover changed to the Noxian flag, their
Wealth will not decrease.
(Of course, the occupation of Noxus also means a lot of bloodshed. After all, the tax rate in Noxus is extremely high, merchants have to pay more taxes, and they also need to spend a lot of money in exchange for exemption from military service.)
However, Lux directly stated that she wanted to take back the Sun Gate, which was completely unacceptable to them. Half of the MPs in Piltover lived on the shares of the Sun Gate.
Without the income from Sun Gate, how can they maintain their debauched life?
It's a pity that Lux didn't even have the intention to take a look at these guys. She just looked at Camille in front of her with a smile, waiting for the Gray Lady's answer.
Camille couldn't answer.
There was no way she would allow the Sun Gate to fall into Zu An's hands.
But the problem is, she doesn't have the confidence to refuse now.
Yes, faced with Lux's request to take back the Gate of the Sun, Camille could certainly refuse through equity recognition, but under the current situation, is it useless to refuse?
The current situation in Piltover in the north of the city is a mess. Stillwater Prison has been breached. The parliamentary guards on the parliament building side have suffered heavy casualties and have almost run out of ammunition and food.
Under such circumstances, it would be easy to simply reject Lux, but what next?
Fall out on the spot and have a big fight, everyone depends on their own abilities?
Can't beat it!
Compared to those bastards who only care about their own interests and have nothing but attitude, Camille cares more about how to solve this problem.
She tentatively put forward several other alternative suggestions, but Lux remained unmoved. No matter what Camille suggested, she insisted on taking back the Sun Gate Sea Gate.
Seeing that Lux seemed to be targeting the Gate of the Sun, Camille had to find another way to communicate.
"With the development of Hex Technology and the application of new equipment, Sungate Sea Gate is about to receive a new round of financing." She sighed helplessly, "Perhaps Zaun can use the lowest price to purchase 10% of the financing.
shares—how about that?”
This is the closest solution Camille can think of to getting the best of both worlds.
Although the figure of 10% is a bit lacking in sincerity, as the so-called asking for high prices and counter-offering, the important thing is not the ratio, but the solution.
Piltover can give up part of the Sun Gate's profits, but it must not hand over the Sun Gate!
The Gate of Sun is the root of Piltover. Handing over the Gate of Sun is digging up the roots of Piltover. In comparison, it is better to simply take out some of the shares of the Gate of Sun to pay for it.
What’s the reward for Zaun sending troops to help this time!
However, Lux remained unmoved at all.
"Take back the Sun Gate, this is non-negotiable." There was still an unquestionable meaning in her tone, "It is not a partial share acquisition, but to get back the Sun Gate sea gate that should be taken back -
Why couldn't the builders of the Sun Gate even get back the Sun Gate they built when the Noxians could easily take the north side of the city?"
Seeing that Lux was not making progress and had no intention of giving in, Camille had no choice but to give up trying to mediate.
Shaking her head, Camille, who had been discussing with Lux in low voices before, suddenly raised her voice.
"Noxus should not occupy the north of the city, just as the Sun Gate should not be handed over to you, Miss Lux." Camille had no choice but to use the heart-killing method, "Get the Sun Gate from Zaun, let
There are constant conflicts between the two cities. Is this your intention or Demacia’s intention?"
To be honest, although she learned from Heimerdinger that Lux's original name was Laxana Crownguard and she was from Demacia, Camille didn't actually want to take advantage of this if she could.
Yes, Lux's Demacia background can change the nature of this matter. Although we don't expect the Zaun people to give up their support for Lux because of this, at least at the negotiation table, Camille can gain greater benefits.
room for maneuver.
Now, I proposed a compromise method, but you refused to give in at all and insisted on causing a conflict. So, are you trying to get the Sun Gate back for the Zaan people?
Are you sure it's not for Demacia?
"This has nothing to do with Demacia." Lux shook her head without hesitation, "I just want to take back what should be taken back."
"Then let someone else talk to me." Camille snorted and said, "As you said, Piltover and Zaun are originally one, and this is Oshla Vazu."
An’s housekeeping!”
Camille has the confidence to face other negotiators.
For her, if she could keep Lux out of the situation, all problems would become easier - in the final analysis, the only person she fears is Lux.
However, what Camille didn't expect at all was that when she heard her say this, a bright smile appeared on Lux's face.
"So, are you willing to admit that both Piltover and Zaun were part of what was once Oshla Varzuan?"
"...That's right." After hesitating for a moment, Camille finally nodded, "That's how history is."
"In that case." The smile on Lux's face became even brighter, "Then why not rebuild Vazuan?"
Camille was completely stunned by such an unexpected announcement.
Not only was Camille stunned, but even the Zaun law enforcement officer behind Lux was stunned for a moment - you know, even the Zaun people, all they want is the Sungate Port!
Amid everyone's surprised gazes, Lux took out a golden feather.
"In the name of Kalja, Regent of the Shurima Empire."
Then, looking at the stunned Camille in front of her, Lux lowered her voice for the first time.
"Cooperation will benefit both sides. After eliminating those insects who only know how to rest on the wealth of our ancestors, we may need to talk alone."
Looking at the golden feathers held by Lux and listening to the whispers in her ears, the light in Camille's eyes began to flicker.
Although she was not interested in the Shurima Empire's regent or anything like that, she did need to talk to Lux in private.
As Lux said, those guys who rest on the wealth of their ancestors are really a group of insects that can only hold us back.
