MTL - The Mage Behind the Scenes From the Twin Cities-Chapter 16 He only needs 1 stage

"Yes, I didn't do that, because I found that Vander was right."

Shirko suddenly laughed, and there was a bit of madness in his laughter,

"Things in this world are so ironic. If he had been tougher at the time, I didn't need to stand up. But when I did stand up, it would be too late."

Hearing the desolation and despair in the other party's words, Victor couldn't understand:

"The power you have should be stronger than the previous Vander."

"But Piltover isn't the one it used to be. Recently, Piltover College has frequently produced some geniuses. Victor a few years ago, Jess these two years, which is not an amazing research genius."

Victor's eyes shrank, and he said casually, "I've heard of these two, but I heard that they just made some gadgets."

He wanted to see who he was in the eyes of the Zaun leader. Counting all the inventions he created, although they could not benefit Zaun for various reasons, they also did not have any lethal weapons.

"Yes, they are all gadgets. They look small, but they make the gap between the two cities bigger and bigger."

Shirko shook his head, as if he had found someone he could talk to, as if he had opened a chat box, and then added:

"Let's not say that Hexfly Gate makes the world smaller and smaller, and makes Zaun completely isolated. Let's just say that Victor's little inventions have really widened the gap between Zaun and Piltover, and Piltover has gained Huge sums of money have been spent making weapons, recruiting and building defenses."

He pointed out the window, in Piltover's direction:

"Now Piltover's coastal defense artillery is placed beside the border bridge, and a single shot can blow up a building. The force of the two sides is not at the same level. I heard that Viktor is still a Zaun, and his ability is admirable, but he A traitor."

Traitor...

Victor was shocked, he didn't expect that he would see this in the eyes of the other party.

I'm afraid... most Zaun think so...

For a time, he was actually a little disillusioned.

Through Shirko's words, he could figure out what he had done wrong. The technology he created did not benefit Zaun, it was actually weakening Zaun in disguise.

He may not have understood it before, but after coming into contact with Noxus and knowing the respect that Ryan received in Picheng, he could already understand this.

When the strengths of the two sides are not equal, who will respect the weak?

Equality, peace, and kindness are just appearances. In their hearts, they don't actually treat each other as the same person as themselves.

He...has always been wishful thinking, but he has done bad things with good intentions.

"Then what do you think? I'm here to assist you in order to weaken Piltover's strength." Victor's hoarse voice was decisive.

His eyes looked out, and through the cracks in Zaun's dilapidated house, he could vaguely see the exquisite and luxurious house of Piltover.

And the bricks and tiles built with money there are his efforts.

He's from Zaun, and what Piltover once got from him, Zaun will get twice as much.

Shirko looked at the thin man who seemed to have feelings in front of him, crossed his hands to support his chin, and said solemnly:

"Mr. Steward, I'm telling you all this just to express my sincerity. I love the land under my feet, and no one in all of Zaun wants to make it better than I do, not even Vanderlei. So, I want to get a promise from you, otherwise, even if a moth flies into the flame, I will not do anything for you."

"I admire you very much, Sirco. Maybe I was too narrow-minded. Maybe I should get to know Zaun again. It's not as bad as I imagined."

Victor had a smile on his face, looked at the confusion in the other's eyes, and said calmly:

"Get to know me again, I, Lord Meredith's butler, from Zaun!"

......

"You were looking at me like this when I was on a mission?"

After listening to the conversation between Victor and the two, Katerina pointed to the water mirror with an indescribable shame on her face.

Ryan waved the water mirror away, with a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"Victor is more mature than you at the time. Seeing your performance, General Kekao smashed the water mirror away in anger."

"Don't mention him to me." Katarina sullenly said, "Is this your purpose? Let him go to Zaun to gain experience and get his allegiance? I can see that he will be willing to be your housekeeper now."

"Not all of them." Ryan shook his head. "His talent lies in the research of technology. Even if one day he develops a method for the soaring of machines, I will not be surprised at all."

"Then you still throw him to Zaun? Such a person can't become the virtue of Senator Talis, and should stay in the laboratory and do experiments well." Katarina was puzzled.

Ryan stepped in front of the window of the room, looked at the prosperous Piltover in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Katrina, everyone has their own ideals, just like we are willing to do anything for the power of Noxus. So does Viktor, who is willing to do anything for the Zaun in his heart."

"Zuan in your heart?"

"Zuan people's living environment is very poor, and they are different from Noxus, who pin their hopes on being strong, so they all have a sustenance in their hearts."

Ryan went on to explain,

"It's like Hirko has always held in his heart the Vander who took him across the bridge. Just like in Sevika's heart, Hirko will always be the one worthy of his allegiance. In Victor's heart, there are An ideal and perfect Zaun. They live where the sun shines, they breathe grassy air, the rivers are so clear they can see small fish swimming in them, everyone has a smile on their face, everyone's All in good health.”

After Katerina listened in silence, she spit out a name:

"Piltover!"

"That's right, in his eyes, what Piltover should have, Zaun should also have it. This is a city."

Ryan looked out the window on the road not far away, gentlemen and ladies with smiles on their faces, walking on the flat white stone floor tiles, bathing in the brilliance of the setting sun, and smelling the fragrance of flowers in the air.

"Do you want to help him fulfill this wish?"

Katarina stood beside Ryan and looked out at the totally different scenery from Zaun.

"He only needs a stage." Ryan said calmly, "Mel is willing to stake the entire Piltover to help Jace Tallis grow, and Zaun is the stage I prepared for Victor."

"The strength of the two sides is very unequal, but you are so optimistic about him? Myrdalda is not weak."

Katerina is interested. What an amazing idea to use the city as a chessboard to train two talented chess players.

"It is precisely because you are in a desperate situation that you cherish every bit of hope, don't you?" Ryan said meaningfully.

Katerina's eyes flickered, her heart trembled, thinking of the last night in the military camp.

At that time, Ryan was not her only hope...

Perhaps, her wisdom is indeed inferior to Mel, who is also an abandoned daughter. But sometimes, luck may be more important than ingenuity:

"Your Excellency, it is my honor to follow you."
