Since the troops are divided into three groups, it is natural that each group has its own goal.
Sona was inquiring about Lestara's story, and added that Peter, who was going to meet Jarvan III, represented the opinions of the nobles who were close to the royal family.
Ino took Kalya deep into the depths of the Forbidden Demon Prison in order to determine the situation of the Silent Man and, if possible, win over the Silent Man to act together.
As for Lux, what she has to do is to prove to the noble council and make them believe that magic will not get out of control, that the greatest power will always be in the hands of the nobles, and that the normalization of magic will also be profitable for the nobles.
of.
Unlike Sona and Ino, it is far more difficult to prove something than to figure out someone's attitude.
Especially regarding magic, no matter how you look at it, it is not an easy matter to get the noble council to agree to loosen the chain around the magic's neck.
In order to achieve this goal, Lux, Ino and Sona spent the most time sorting out their ideas, and finally dismantled the problem with the help of Kalya.
The prerequisite for profitability is stability, which is to make the nobles believe that magic will not subvert their rule, and can even allow them to rule better.
For those who understand magic, this is an outright false proposition - magic will bring about changes in production and will have a reaction on the structure of the entire society.
However, due to the ban on magic for too long, in Demacia, except for a small number of nobles who are close to the magic seekers, the Silent people or the Illuminati, most of the nobles do not even have a basic concept of magic.
!
As vested interests in the entire Demacia, they are naturally worried about magic. However, this worry is not that the widespread application of magic will promote the awakening of civilians and affect the rule of the nobles, but that magic is too dangerous and threatens
To the safety of the lives and property of noble gentlemen.
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, Lux must find a way to dispel their worries.
At this point, the method Lux chose was to prepare a "bridle" that looked very binding for the violent and unruly magic.
Why did Silas have astonishing destructive power, but was only imprisoned in the Demon-forbidden Prison and not directly executed?
There is certainly a hint of "humanism" in this, but more importantly, in the eyes of those who can decide Silas's fate, he poses no threat at all.
A young man who poses no threat can naturally be thrown into a dark prison and spare his life to show his kindness.
The same is true for magic.
If the nobles find that they can control the situation even if they loosen the shackles on magic, then if loosening the shackles is profitable, will they try something?
What Lux has to do now is to give the nobles who don't know enough about magic an illusion, an illusion that "we can actually control the intensity of our jurisdiction over magic."
When Ino visited the Silent Man, he gave Silas a chance to escape from prison.
At the same time, Lux quietly came outside the city to help replenish the energy of the Forbidden Demon Stone Colossus sleeping here.
When the storm suddenly subsides, the nobles will find that more and more magic is just mediocre. As long as they master the Forbidden Magic Stone, they can completely control it.
Then, as long as he comes to Lux and lets Galio show the convenience that a little magic can bring to the noble gentlemen...then he will not be afraid that the noble council will not be on his side!
Just like that, with brisk steps, Lux climbed over the city wall and slipped to the feet of the Colossus of Justice outside the gate of Xiongdu City.
Then, seeing no one around, she spread her wings of light and quickly ran up to the statue's shoulders.
The next moment, she put her hand on the statue's shoulder.
"Wake up, big man."
……………………
Outside the capital city of Demacia, on the only way in and out of the city, the giant stone statue Galio, carefully sculpted by master sculptor Durang, keeps watch.
Although summer has come to an end at this time, the wind in the evening gradually becomes cooler, and the number of caravans traveling to and from the capital has gradually decreased, but when those merchants from all over Demacia gathered outside the city,
When he went to the market to sell, purchased enough goods, and set off to leave, the long caravan would still pay attention when passing in front of this statue.
Because of the Artist Support Association, in recent years, more and more artists have come to the capital of Demacia to make a living. Some of them are extremely talented and have received sponsorship from the association, while others have been coldly judged as "not talented enough."
Or he was euphemistically told that "the future is promising", but failed to become famous and attended noble banquets.
It is not easy to live in the capital. Most of these down-and-out artists who are good at painting have changed their jobs and become professional painters. In the summer, when caravans from all over the country come to the capital of Demacia to do business, they draw a painting for them as a souvenir.
Portrait paintings to earn money to live in the capital of Demacia.
Although even a down-and-out painter cannot be afforded by a single merchant, if many merchants from the same place form a caravan and everyone pools their money, they can still hire a painter to splash ink and leave a lasting impression.
Sub-picture scroll.
For civilians, painting is a rare thing. Being able to leave their own appearance, even if it can only be left with many people, is a big thing that can make them hold their heads high!
As the iconic "building" of Demacia's capital, Galio, the Colossus of Justice, is the drawing background chosen by many local caravans - no way, although the magnificent square in the city, Castle of Dawn, and Hall of Valor are more representative
Sex, but the sheriff obviously would not allow so many people from the caravan to line up in threes and fives and spend a morning or an afternoon blocking traffic.
In comparison, the Colossus of Justice located outside the city is iconic enough, and its surroundings are spacious enough. More importantly, as long as enough space is left for painting and the most basic outline is drawn, the Colossus and the person can be painted separately.
Therefore, in the past few years, every summer, the place at the foot of Galio will be particularly lively.
The painters earned enough money here to stay in the capital to become famous and further their studies. The caravan left behind an iconic group portrait. Everyone took what they needed, and it was considered a good time.
However, no one could have imagined that while they were each getting what they needed, the giant statue of justice that had been used as the background was actually silently observing these little people.
In other words, no one knows that Galio, the Colossus of Justice, has always been conscious, but he is unable to move due to lack of magic power.
As a pure Colossus of Justice made from Forbidden Demon Stone, Galio is qualified to become a construct.
Well, that's not the right thing to say.
It should be said that the upper limit of the magic power that Galio can contain, which is purely made of forbidden magic stone, far exceeds most of the magic constructs during the ancient Shurima Empire. The act of making a construct purely from forbidden magic stone, even if it is
When the Shurima Empire was at its peak, it could be said to be "astonishingly extravagant".
If compared horizontally, in the New Port of Zaun, the amount of forbidden magic stones used by the dock transport puppet driven by Zeli was less than one percent of Galio's.
Just as Karya commented, Durang's method of making Galio can only be described as using a big brick to fly - such a large piece of pure forbidden magic stone, even without any description of the magic circuit, as long as it is full of magic power, can
freedom of movement.
Therefore, since the unlucky Noxian battle mage group "Arcane Fist" used arcane missiles to charge Galio with a certain amount of energy on Green Teeth Peak, Galio as a construct has been born.
consciousness.
However, because the energy was not fully charged and there was no organized magic circuit inside, although Galio was always conscious, he was unable to move at will.
In this way, the huge Colossus of Justice stood outside the city of Demacia, watching the little people coming and going as a landmark building.
Galio knew that he was created by these little people, so he instinctively wanted to protect these little people. However, what confused him was that these little people would change their appearance little by little over time, and eventually they would change again.
Not seen either.
At first, Galio thought that the disappearing little people were just like him, and had to be repaired regularly - although he had never seen any little people who would be attacked by the annoying crow shit like him, but thinking about it
Even a small person needs to be repaired.
However, as time passed, Galio understood the words of those villains little by little, and then he realized that these villains were different from him, and they would die.
Galio could not understand death at first. The death he could imagine should be the fragmentation of statues. It was not until later that a runaway child cried at his feet that he realized that death is the eternal sleep after the disappearance of consciousness.
.
Just like when I haven't woken up on Green Teeth Peak yet.
Galio was very sad when he understood this. He didn't want the children who had created his own little people to die.
Even after learning that these little people would die of old age as time goes by, like himself being eroded by wind and water, he still hoped to prevent them from dying unexpectedly due to other reasons.
Therefore, Galio will work hard to move himself when Demacia needs it, and then punch those who violate these little people without hesitation!
However, the opportunities for punching are few and far between.
Most of the time, Galio could only stand here alone, observing the little people coming and going around him.
In the past few years, more and more people have begun to draw portraits of themselves, which makes Galio very happy - he is very happy that he can be with those little people in the paintings forever.
Maybe these little people will go to the kingdom of death, but at least they leave those pictures behind.
In the conversation between these people, Galio also remembered a name called Laxana. It was she who formed an organization called the Art Support Association, so that so many people who can draw came here to provide themselves and
These are paintings of little people who will die in the future.
Galio decided that if he could see Laxana in the future, as long as she was not afraid, he would definitely thank her.
Another caravan got their paintings, waved and got on the carriage, leaving the capital of Demacia. Although Galio could not wave to them, he happily wanted to smile - unfortunately the face of the Colossus of Justice did not
His ability to move around made him feel a little lost.
Then, just as Galio was looking forward to tomorrow's "photo partner", a warm little person landed on his shoulder.
The next moment, an astonishing amount of magic power was injected into Galio's body.
