Yodels have always been very persistent and have a very strong attitude of never looking back until they hit the wall.
No, it's no longer enough to hit the wall and not look back. Sometimes the Yodles even hit the wall and won't look back.
What's interesting is that, judging from the results of some dark magic experiments that are not easy to disclose, the life of the Yodels itself is related to their extraordinary persistence - from this perspective, perhaps the Yodels
Their relationship with demons is closer than their relationship with humans.
It's just that the demon's emotions are more extreme, while the yordle's persistence is controllable and positive.
As Poppy's mentor, Oren is very aware of the thoughts of this little Yodel girl, and he also subconsciously maintains her purity, so when Poppy asked him, "Why did you become the king, Demacia was not as united as before?"
Afterwards, Oren could only smile bitterly in return.
Humans are always more susceptible to change than pure yordles.
Maybe it's better, maybe it's degenerate.
Even though Oren, as king, has always been consistent in his demands, this does not mean that all Demacians can support each other and be united as they did on the road after escaping the whirlpool of war.
Perhaps in the face of survival problems, people will always take up their responsibilities, contribute selflessly, and are not even afraid of sacrifice.
But when the situation calms down, comrades who were once close relatives may turn against each other in order to fight for power and gain.
Very few people can truly be completely selfless.
Even Oren himself chose to become a king and pass on the supreme throne to his son?
And isn't a large part of the reason why many of Demacia's ancestors no longer maintain unity is to strive for a better start for their children?
As parents, we want our children to live a better life. What’s wrong with that and what blame should we bear?
Oren is not a yordle, and yordles are destined to be unable to influence Poppy. Therefore, when faced with Poppy's questions, all he can do is smile helplessly, that's all.
However, even if Oren had his own selfish motives, his vision was much farther than ordinary people after all. At the last moment of his life, he chose to leave his symbolic war hammer to Bobby.
On the one hand, this warhammer carries his expectations for Poppy. He expects Poppy to become the unrivaled hero that he cannot even achieve.
On the other hand, this warhammer may also be an insurance for Demacia - Poppy will always pursue those who are united and lawful. If one day, Poppy takes this hammer and finds a new one.
"Oren", then maybe for the sake of this warhammer, Demacia will have a completely different ending from the Noxian Empire?
It has to be said that Oren knows Bobby very well.
After getting this war hammer, Poppy has indeed been looking for the hero who can use this war hammer.
Moreover, because the nobles of Xiongdu soon lost the motivation to explore and were no longer united and orderly, Poppy also left Xiongdu without saying a word.
In a sense, Bobby's departure can be regarded as a farewell.
Sentu, who passively got rid of the pressure of his father's halo, embarked on a path of his own second generation. Through reforms that were more suitable for Demacia, Demacia was completely established as a country, and at the end of his life
At this moment, I chose self-sacrifice.
Poppy followed in the footsteps of the pioneers, heading south and north. This little yordle carrying a war hammer would always appear when people united to face difficulties, and then ask where they could use it.
The unparalleled hero of this warhammer.
Although no one has ever been able to truly make this war hammer display the power that Oren said, the appearance of Poppy himself has actually been the greatest help to these united and brave pioneers.
It is no exaggeration to say that Demacia's territory was able to expand to what it is today despite being full of pitfalls after the end of the Rune Wars. Many places are inseparable from Poppy.
Poppy, who was looking for a hero, became a hero. Her footsteps traveled to the most difficult edges of development. She enthusiastically looked forward to a new Oren again and again, but unfortunately, almost all "Oren"
After becoming "Oren", they all lost the unity that Bobby expected.
During this period, some people also recognized Oren's warhammer and hoped to deceive this little yordle to realize their ambitions. However, since they simply could not realize the great power Oren mentioned,
Poppy will never hand over this war hammer.
If someone wants to use force, Poppy will really teach them to physically rebuild their lives.
In this way, for nearly a hundred years after Oren's death, Bobby kept walking on the road, looking for the unparalleled hero.
Then, as the territory of Demacia gradually became fixed, Poppy's time to inspect heroes finally became shorter and shorter, and the time he spent on the road became longer and longer - although Demacia is still the most united country in Runeterra.
But compared with the ancestors of the past, the current Demacia has gradually fallen out of favor with Poppy.
But even so, Poppy still didn't give up, she was still searching, looking for the hero's footsteps.
Considering that the ancestors of Demacia actually came from various countries, she even thought that maybe the hero was not in Demacia yet.
Therefore, Poppy even left Demacia for a time and went through the portal of Bandle City to Freljord, Ionia, Bilgewater, Shurima...
In the Freljord, she witnessed the rise of the Avarosa tribe, but the temperament of the Freljord never met her expectations.
In Ionia, she had wanted to give Irelia a try after the Battle of Preidion, but after the war, Ionia's unity quickly disappeared.
In Bilgewater, she experienced several Soul Eater Nights, and she felt that kind of unity every time Soul Eater Night, but as the sky lightened up the next day, this unity would disappear strangely.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In Shurima, she even tried to climb Mount Targon carrying a hammer, but it seemed that the yordles were not compatible with this thing, so in the end she had no choice but to
give up.
In Ixtal...
In Icacia...
In Kamavia…
Thanks to the Bandle City portal and his long life, Poppy's footsteps are no longer limited to Demacia.
But unfortunately, few people can show the kind of unity and lawfulness that Poppy expects.
Maybe at a certain moment, Bobby did feel the throbbing in his heart.
Unfortunately, it often doesn't take long for those who were once united to fall apart again.
No other group of people can reach the level of the ancestors of Demacia, and naturally the warhammer in Poppy's hand has not been given away for a long time.
Now, Poppy, who has returned from Kamavia in disappointment, finally sets foot on the land of Demacia again.
Here, she heard the name of a noble model.
So, without any hesitation, she carried Oren's hammer and walked on the road to Forsbarrow.
"Perhaps she is the unparalleled hero?"
……………………
Naturally, Lux had no idea about Poppy's arrival.
At this time, in Lux's eyes, the Demacia Empire had reached a stage of decline.
Originally, Lux thought that becoming emperor was already a bad move that couldn't get any worse.
Unexpectedly, the preparations for the subsequent emperor ceremony made her realize that Jarvan IV was indeed not very good at governing the country.
In other words, it's not as good as it looks.
Demacia's aristocratic political system and Jarvan IV's martial prowess concealed his shortcomings in governance.
For a feudal aristocratic country, a king who can fight and gather power can be regarded as a wise king - but Jarvan IV is obviously not satisfied with this. He hopes that Demacia will go further, and he also hopes that he will go further.
further.
But the problem is that Demacia is objectively not ready, and Jarvan IV doesn't have the ability.
A man who could be the king of a feudal aristocratic country, without the ability to reform the political system, ignored the specific situation of the country, and just because of ambition and changes in the international situation, he rashly chose to spread his business first...
Lux really couldn't fathom any possibility of Jarvan IV's success.
In the past nearly ten years, Jarvan IV has relied on the Illuminati to consolidate local power, and on the soldiers who were transformed from the private army of the nobles into the army directly under the royal family during the Battle of Tobitsia.
This was a good start. Thanks to the personal charm of Jarvan IV, these people were loyal to him and indeed wrested a lot of power from the nobles at the beginning.
But the problem is that although Jarvan IV subsequently developed financial resources and consistently suppressed the nobility, he did not fundamentally change the aristocratic system of Demacia, even after this wave of human resources was exhausted
, the flow of talents has become more rigid.
Although the Illuminati competed with the nobility locally, it didn't take long for them to become the new nobility.
And since these new nobles had no fiefdoms and only had partial local powers, they naturally began to pave the way for their descendants.
As a result, Demacia's soldiers have rapidly become "second-generation" in this decade.
You know, in Demacia, being a soldier is the most formal promotion channel, so after these new nobles took control of this path, the civilians who could have gone to join the army now had no possibility of advancement at all.
Since Demacia is relatively rich in products, unorganized civilians will not pose any threat to Demacia even if they are starving to death.
And when the conflicting interests of the old and new aristocrats were completely inconsistent, they were unable to unite to pose a threat to the royal power, and the aristocratic council itself became a quarrel within itself.
Under this situation, Jarvan IV's rule can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai, and even Lux is prepared for a long-term confrontation. He will wait until the next generation in the north, or even the next generation, grows up and magic becomes fully productive, before attacking the capital.
Preparations for dimensionality reduction strikes.
But he never expected that at this time, Jarvan IV would go crazy, giving up his stable rule and insisting on proclaiming himself emperor.
Lux, who hoped that Kalya's trip to Shurima would bring some trouble to the royal family, welcomed the gift from heaven.
Lux, who was hit on the head by a pie, hesitated for a long time.
She really thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out what Jarvan IV's confidence was.
This is what is called "plans failing to keep up with changes."
After the intelligence team's data investigation confirmed that Jarvan IV was indeed seeking death, Lux finally put aside preparations for a protracted war and planned to take this opportunity to teach Jarvan IV a lesson and let him understand clearly.
What is advancement, what is crushing, and what is management.
It was based on this judgment that after discussion, the three giants in the north agreed that it was time to take action.
Therefore, in the spring speech, Lux proposed the goal of "integrated Forsbarrow" for the second time without any concealment.
Although it is not a declaration of war, its purpose has long been obvious.
It's a pity that even if Lux has made the matter so clear, it is still a "secret message" to Xiongdu.
In other words, in the entire Demacia, except for the Forsbyro people, no one can realize what kind of energy magic contains when it is used for production; no one can realize that the dozen or so Lux
What does the unremitting investment in education, infrastructure construction, and administrative structure reorganization over the past few years really mean?
To put it bluntly, Fosbairo and Xiongdu gradually widened the generation gap not only in terms of productivity, but also in terms of political system.
It is difficult for people who have not experienced this kind of dimensionality reduction to understand what this generational difference actually means.
And if it weren't for her experience in Zaun, Lux wouldn't believe that sometimes, the world view brought about by the way of thinking can indeed make people unable to understand the facts and truths that are originally in front of them.
Just like now, even though Lux has made it clear that she wants to shift her focus to the military aspect, as long as she makes a slight turn and says it is the integration of Forsbarrow, Xiongdu will not understand what this means.
When facing the North, the deep-rooted arrogance finally blinded Jarvan IV and blinded the eyes of the nobles of Xiongdu. They never really opened their eyes to see the North, never really understood the North, and never really understood the North.
logic of action.
Use your own way to look at Forsbarrow, use your own way to face the coming changes, and use your own way to guide the future.
Why?
As the saying goes, if God doesn't accept it, you will be punished. Time waits for no one. Since the enemy has made the mistake of adventurism, Lux will naturally seize the opportunity to strike hard!
When Jarvan IV spent a lot of money to prepare for the ceremony of proclaiming himself emperor, he invited envoys from various kingdoms and principalities in Valoran to watch the ceremony.
For the first time, Forsbarrow in the north has liberalized the use of human resources.
Under the completed organizational structure, a large number of laborers were absorbed into Forsbarrow's production with astonishing efficiency.
In the past, Forsbarrow has never been so free in production. This is partly because of the need to keep a low profile, and partly because Demacian people have limited consumption power and have excess production capacity in many areas.
But now, with the proposal of Forsbarrow's integration strategy, a brand new track that can accommodate almost all excess production capacity has been officially unveiled.
