Runeterra is so much fun!

Chapter 96: The Key to the Future

The moment the sharp blade flew out, the entire venue fell into chaos at an astonishing speed.The citizens left in exclamation, and the reporters left excitedly.And with the entry of law enforcement officials, the whole situation is even worse to the point where war is on the verge of breaking out.

"Stop! Everyone stop!"

Heimerdinger's flustered voice came from the side: "What are you doing? It's just a meeting, there is no need to make it like this! War is something we need to try our best to avoid, isn't it?"

Hearing Heimerdinger's words, Yuan Chen chuckled, and then controlled the dragon fire embers to pull out from Camille's chest.

The sharp blade reflected the cold light, and in the eyes of Heimerdinger and others, the ivory white knife like a work of art returned to the knife bag on Yuan Chen's waist.

"I can feel your pride, which is what I can't understand." Yuan Chen looked at Camille: "The way you give orders is like a superior scolding a subordinate...but you, Or is Piltover strong enough?"

"No, let's put it another way... If it's Noxus here, do you dare to scold like that?"

"You don't dare." Yuan Chen straightened his waist and looked contemptuously at the law enforcement officers around him, including citizens, businessmen, scholars, and reporters who had not had time to leave the meeting.

This look made the law enforcement officers feel an inexplicable panic, almost instinctively, they raised their muskets and aimed at Yuan Chen from a distance, and there was a silent pressure from the black muzzle.

"Put it down! Put it all down!" Heimerdinger yelled at the side, and with the help of the mechanical arm, the little furry man came between the speech seat and the audience seat, and kept pressing the muzzle of his gun and said:

"What if it goes off fire?! Let me down! Don't deepen the conflict!"

Having witnessed the cruelty of Rune Wars with his own eyes, Heimerdinger is well aware of the terrifying power of a magic civilization that has existed since ancient times.Not to mention that Yuan Chen was the first to move the knife, even if Yuan Chen really killed Camille, the final result might just be nothing.

Yuan Chen is very aware of this, and this is where Yuan Chen's confidence lies—Ixtal's strength cannot be resisted by Piltover.

But now, I have prepared for so long in Ixtar, and prepared so much, not counting the desperate things, and even almost became the ration of the dragon.Now that Ixtal has become his own family, what happened to the tiger skins of the family members?
The host who brings the goods makes the family members trust so much when they spend money. The buddy is a dragon and a spirit theory, which brings real benefits to Ixtal and promotes a key step in the possibility of more axioms in the early Yuan Dynasty. Completed the theoretical construction from zero to one...

After being busy for so long and paying so much, when it's time to enjoy the rewards, you should enjoy it.

With his hands behind his back, Yuan Chen's face was full of relief: "If it's Noxus, you don't dare. After all, the trade that Piltover relies on for survival is originally because it fits the interests of Noxus. to exist."

"You are very clear that Noxus needs a neutral trading port in order to promote the expansion of the empire in a more comprehensive way. And the Mirdar family was established as a collateral branch of the traditional nobles of Noxus."

"Whether it is the completion of the Sun Gate, the prosperous trade of Piltover, or the primitive accumulation at the beginning of Zaun, there has never been a shadow of Noxus behind Piltover."

"But with the accumulation of wealth and the productivity and combat power brought by the Hex crystal, you will inevitably have a truly independent mind...but you still dare not."

"Because you can't beat Noxus... This is what I don't understand."

Yuan Chen spread his hands and asked with a puzzled face, "Why do you think you can defeat Ixtar?"

"Because of Hextech?"

With that said, Yuan Chen raised his right hand and snapped his fingers under the gaze of the people.

The next moment, with a crisp sound, in the VIP room above the entrance passage, Camille, who was still standing at the broken glass, suddenly suffocated.

Paleness flashed across that icy face, and then the whole person fell to his knees directly.

Panting violently, the whole person seemed to have lost his strength.Not only the body, but even the chest began to shoot out fierce arcs, the eyes filled with glimmering energy flickered, and the hex technology core of the whole person seemed to be short-circuited, unable to provide effective output.

Seeing this, the servant on the side wanted to help Camille up, but before he could get close, Camille raised his palm to stop the servant from approaching.

After a long silence, Camille gritted her teeth and tried to support herself with the remaining energy in her body.

In this regard, Yuan Chen just shook his head boringly, and then gently lowered his palm.

hum...

In Camille's chest came the hum of the fan blades as the engine stopped.

Having completely lost the supply of energy, Camille's complexion suddenly turned pale, and the dim lights in his eyes went out directly. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but the words that came out were only the sound of "ho ho" .After a while, he fell directly to the ground, like a doll that has lost its support.

For a moment, the VIP room was in chaos, and they couldn't understand what happened.Through the shadow behind the intact window, Yuan Chen could clearly see several figures leaving in a panic, as if he thought there was something unclean in the VIP room.

There are indeed many unclean things in this world, but at least there are none here.

The reason why Yuanchen was able to do this scene is also very simple.

It is undeniable that the sophistication and potential of the heart of Hextech are indeed beyond imagination.Compared with the hammer in Jess's hand, Yuanchen can't even analyze it through the monolithic network without direct contact.

But... a weapon is an extension of the body.

The moment the dragon tooth flying knife touched Camille, Yuan Chen got the data he wanted.

"Don't be like this, my friend..." Heimerdinger's tired voice came from the side.Looking at Yuan Chen with a pair of eyes, he said helplessly, "Let us each take a step back..."

Hearing Heimerdinger's sad voice, Yuan Chen nodded calmly after being silent for a moment.

The next moment, Camille, who had stopped functioning because of Hex's heart, suddenly woke up on his back, like a drowning person, Camille's eyes widened and he gasped violently.After a while, he stood up and looked at Yuan Chen with disbelief in his eyes.

"Have you... met Hakim?!"

"?"

Hearing Camille's words, Yuan Chen glanced at the disbelieving Camille inexplicably.

Hakim, full name Hakim Nedri.It's not Mrs. Piltover, or even someone from Valoran, but a crystallographer from Belgun, a coastal city in Shurima, who is young and promising with a bright future.

After Camille's parents were attacked and killed by alchemy thugs, Camille's younger brother became the head of the house, and Camille became the chief secret agent.

But Camille himself is just a mortal, and he doesn't have enough strength and ability to take over the heaviness of the head of the secret agent.So Camille asked Hakim to perform Hex enhancement surgery for her to break the limit that a human being cannot break through.

And what about Hakim?It was love at first sight for Camille in the process.The two worked together, telling the stories of Shurima in the middle of the night, and their friendship grew stronger...

In the end, Camille returns Hakeem's affection.The love between the two is out of control, but at the same time, they also know that the completion of the operation means parting.

After that, many things happened... And as a result, the couple finally parted ways.

Hakeem removed Camille's heart with his own hands and replaced it with a Hextech heart.Then disappeared, disappeared in Piltover.Camille didn't look for Hakim...

Because Camille knew, and Hakim knew himself.Even if you look for it with your heart, it can only be in vain in the end.

A long, long time has passed... Camille will remain young forever under the influence of the heart of Hex Technology.But as a peer, his younger brother.Those who have aged need to maintain the necessary physiological activities through Hex prostheses.

But now, it is obvious that, in Camille's view, Yuan Chen's ability to shut down and restart HexTech's heart directly from a distance is derived from Hakim's knowledge.

"You're thinking too much, I haven't seen Hakim before."

"You know him." Camille frowned: "Otherwise, how did you complete the heart restart? Only he knows this!"

"Is there a possibility..." Yuan Chen casually patted the non-existent dust on his shoulder: "I can see some future and past? Or is my profound knowledge allowing me to see the key at a glance?"

"..." Hearing Yuan Chen's words, the venue fell into silence for a while.

After a moment, Camille said, "I feel like you're just fooling me."

"Whatever you think." Yuan Chen was too lazy to prove himself on this matter, but simply looked around:

"Actually, you are also very puzzled, aren't you? Why can I influence and control such a sophisticated magical engineering creation as Hex's heart just by snapping my fingers and waving my hand?"

"Actually, the reason is very simple... because you don't understand the generation of Hex rough stone veins."

Yuan Chen said: "The Hex raw stone veins are produced because of the accumulation and accumulation of a large amount of magical energy. It is a special creation produced by the circulation and metabolism of magical energy around the world."

"To put it in a simpler way, the hexite ore vein is an accessory made by the Vidalian loom, the sacred object of Sutar... There is no need to be surprised and confused. Because the hex crystal is essentially a large amount of overflowing The product of condensed magic power."

"The formation of this product occurred once before 2000 AD in the Noxus calendar. Namely, the energetic aftermath of the collapse of Shurima."

Yuan Chen's face is full of calm:
"But the collapse of Shurima cannot be replicated, and Piltover has only extended the use of energy in the hex rough ore veins."

"And coincidentally, it may be a bit exaggerated to say all of them. But after our on-the-spot investigation during this period of time, the main hex rough stone production area of ​​Piltover in this era, the rough stone veins in the eastern mountains of Shurima, all come from From the energy metabolism of the Ixtar relic."

"You use hex crystals to create the future, but unfortunately, the key to the future is in the hands of Ixtar."
