Lux and Ino spent three days repairing in Kalamanda.
(Lux objected strongly to Kalya's ridicule and strictly forbade him from revealing that he was seasick.)
In addition to recuperating on the spot and completely resolving the seasickness, Kalya also took advantage of this time to formulate the next action plan in detail with Ai Xi.
After the repairs are completed, they will leave Kalamanda and go to Piltover.
After arriving in Piltover, they would liquidate some of their supplies, then take the principal with them into the lower city of Piltover, and finally arrive in Zaun.
And Zu'an is the final destination of their trip.
"Why Zaun?" When he heard that he was going to Zaun, Ino asked with some doubts, "I heard from the sailors on the ship that Zaun was a place that sucked... Stay in Karaman
Da Ye is fine, there are many farmlands in the northern suburbs of Kalamanda. Even if it is just to learn magic, we can stay here and build a farm of our own!"
"To be honest, if possible, I would also like to stay in Kalamanda." Kalya sighed, "However, for Lux, if she wants to stage a return of the king within six years, she will stay in Kalamanda.
It’s totally too late to start farming in Manda.”
"I understand that you can't stay in Kalamanda, but why Zaun?" Speaking of this, Lux was also very curious, "I remember you said that Piltover and Zaun are very special places.
The birth and rise were mainly due to the trade between Valoran and Shurima..."
"It is precisely for this reason that Zaun and Piltover are the easiest places to pry in the entire Rune Land." Kalya affirmed, "Many people don't know that Zaun was once called Vazuan, which was Shurima.
It’s an important port city—I have a lot of good things left there!”
"Oh? Good stuff?" Hearing what Kalya said, Lux suddenly became energetic, "What is it?"
"It's just some insignificant seeds." Kalya said in a calm tone, "The main reason is that too much time has passed, and I'm not sure what else is left there. The main reason why I won't tell you is
Otherwise, the greater your expectations, the greater your disappointment."
"What's so disappointing about this?" Lux frowned, "I've already discovered it, Kalya - you seem to be hiding something from me!"
"It's not that I'm hiding it, I'm actually not sure myself." Kalya said helplessly, "I've been sleeping for too long, although I woke up a few times during this period and tried hard to understand a little bit about Runeterra.
The situation - but time is ruthless, and I can't confirm that Zu'an is what I think he is, so if you insist on asking me to explain everything clearly, I can only say, 'take one step at a time and see.'"
"So, going to Zaun is your first step?" Hearing what Kalya said, Lux finally nodded, "Then, if Zaun is what you think, what should each of our steps look like?
of?"
"The first thing is observation." Kalya considered the words, "Understand the current Zaun, and also inquire about some of my old friends."
"It's understandable - but, Karya, can we still have your good friends in Zaun now?" Lux nodded, and then said with some surprise, "Is it also that...dark descendant?"
"It's not the dark descendants." Kalya denied Lux's guess, and then warned in a serious tone, "Moreover, don't say the dark descendants' names so easily, and don't get close to the dark descendants. Although they once fought alongside me,
Fight, but I can't guarantee whether they are still rational now - in fact, I don't want to stay in Kalamanda, and a large part of the reason is that I don't want you to have anything to do with the dark descendants at this time."
"That's right..." Lux nodded, indicating that she understood, "What about after understanding Zuan?"
"If the situation in Zaun is really similar to what I think, then the next thing to do will be very simple!" Kalya said in a calm tone, "Build a political power from scratch, and use
You will gain real power through your own hard work rather than your bloodline, and prepare for your return to Demacia and the transformation of Demacia..."
"Wait, what are you talking about???" Lux was stunned and immediately interrupted Kalya, "You said you want to establish a political power in such a relaxed tone? Are you trying to overthrow Zaun?
"
"Am I like the kind of bad guy who engages in sedition?" Kalya denied Lux's accusation in a contrived and very sad tone, "If you don't count it as a gang, Zaun doesn't even have a political power. It's completely a total chaos.
A barbaric land in the civilized world - since there is no political power, how can we subvert it?"
"...Really or not?" Lux became even more confused, "How can a commercial city not have political power?"
"Of course it's true." Kalya said firmly, "And you will build a city-state from scratch on the ruins, and through competition and cooperation with Piltover, you will understand the meaning of diplomacy.
Significance……"
"And diplomacy?" Lux was already a little dumbfounded. "Wait, Kalya, this is different from what I imagined! This shouldn't be what I want to do, right? I just want to find a solution to Demacia.
Given the current situation, why should we establish a city-state in Zaun?!"
"Many of Demacia's problems are brought out of the bones." Karya said earnestly, "If you want to make a change, what you need is an earth-shaking, and Zaun will be a platform for you to experience."
"It sounds like you regard Zaun as my training ground?" Lux blinked, "If I fail, then wouldn't Zaun..."
"So you have to do your best and never fail." Kalya chuckled, "As long as you succeed, you can not only lead the Zaun people out of the quagmire, but also prepare for the future changes in Demacia. Isn't this right?
Kill two birds with one stone?"
"...Karya, you really think highly of me!" Lux couldn't help but rub her eyebrows after hearing this, "But you know I hate politics the most!"
"What I'm talking about is not politics." Kalya sighed, "This is fighting for ideals."
"Don't use words to quibble here." Lux also became serious, "To be honest, have you been thinking about this since you met me?"
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Kalya was stunned for a moment, and then sighed helplessly, "The truth is... yes."
"You finally admitted it, villain!" Lux gritted her teeth, "I knew you had no good intentions from the beginning!"
"Then are you willing?" Kalya did not deny Lux's accusation this time, "Go to Zaun, abandon your identity as a noble lady, start everything from scratch, and transform that shabby place into something you
The way you want it to be.”
"Go! Why don't you go!" Lux raised her face proudly after hearing this, "After all, I am your best student!"
"Obviously this is the worst class I have ever taught——"
"Now there's Ino!"
"Ino, Lux said you are not as good as her."
"Miss Lux is right!"
"You should say it's wrong at this time!"
"Miss Lux was right all along!"
"Lux, look at Ino! What has you brought her to?"
"..."
"..."
In the end, Kalja's Zaun strategy was unanimously approved by the three-person team.
On the fourth day after arriving in Kalamanda, Lux and Ino bought two tickets and boarded the passenger ship to Piltover.
