Battle of the Two Cities: Begins with the Mage

Chapter 24 Senator Philos and the first proposal she brought

"Members? No, no, no, Piltover already has 8 members, I don't think there is a need for one more." Mel's expression stiffened, and he repeatedly refused.

If a member of Parliament with a Noxian background is added, her existing aloof status in Parliament will collapse.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that her position in Noxus is actually much lower than Ryan's. Will her mother stand up for her?

"Then it's up to you to vote, and I think you can handle that. Isn't that right, Miss Camille."

"Cowardly, incompetent, noisy, ignorant, stupid. I haven't come back for so many years, and seeing you again is still so useless."

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The sound of the sword stepping on the floor tiles was accompanied by a sarcastic female voice in the air.

The door of the parliament was pushed open again, but the law enforcement officer at the door still did not dare to stop it, and even knelt on both sides.

The one who entered was a tall woman with short silver hair and legs with mechanical blades. She has a face that is even colder than Katerina, and her eyes are shining with dazzling blue light, watching every member of the parliament sitting in the seat.

"You're back..."

Heimerdinger, who was sitting at the top of the parliament, sighed.

"If I don't come back, Piltover will disappear. They're all useless idiots." Camille stepped forward and walked to the seat of the female congressman.

"Ms. Philos, Piltover welcomes you back."

The woman stood up respectfully and made room for Camille who came in.

"Who is she?"

Wei watched Camille sit down and whispered in Caitlin's ear.

"I don't know either. I know that the Philos family's owner is Stevan, who used to be the richest man in Picheng." Caitlin also looked at Camille in confusion.

"It's a pity that the descendants have forgotten my name now." Camille raised his eyebrows, "But there are a lot of new faces."

She looked around and commented on the new members one by one:

"Myrdalda, your mother's knife is too slow. Sooner or later, there will be a dull day, when you should collect the body of your stupid brother."

Her eyes turned to Caitlin beside her again:

"Gillamann? You really look like your mother. She was just like you when she was young. She wanted to protect the justice in her heart, but she didn't execute it completely."

"I won't be like my mother, shouldn't you say your name?" Caitlin held back her anger.

"Interesting, it seems that your mother seldom tells you bedtime stories. My name is Camille, child, Camille of the Philos family, the guardian of this city." Camille's eyes flashed blue light , full of smiles.

"Hex!? You implanted hex technology into your body?"

Jace, who had been observing Camille, couldn't help but exclaimed. He was most familiar with Hex, and he was the first to see through the blue light in Camille's eyes.

On the other side, Victor, who was standing behind Ryan, also discovered this. He couldn't help but glanced at Camille, then looked at the other's mechanical legs, and fell into contemplation.

Before coming this morning, Ryan had told him that there would be an inspirational figure in Parliament today. Now, he thinks he has seen it.

The hex core is implanted in the body, and the body is replaced by a machine. Is there a more interesting idea in the world than this?

Victor's eyes, hidden behind the monocle, shone with enlightenment, as if a new path had been opened before him.

Camille didn't care about Jace's surprise, but looked at him with interest, and began to say:

"Oh? What a good eye, you're the founder of Hextech - Jess Tallis? Heimerdinger, I can think of when I heard Piltover show Hex in Ionia. Are you surprised when it comes to technology? This is science that you have banned, it's funny."

Heimerdinger said solemnly: "Camille, I still don't think it is right to continue to study it. Studying Hextech is like studying magic, and Piltover will be destroyed by its hands. This power is now Being mastered by Victor is a threat to Picheng."

"Then you should quarrel with Tallis for a whole day. There is no right or wrong in power. We need Hextech as Piltover's blade."

Camille crossed his legs and said leisurely to Jace:

"Child, do you know the shell people?"

"Shell people? I've never heard of this name." Jace was stunned.

"Look, Heimerdinger, you don't even tell him about the danger, you just say objection?" Camille's smile was playful.

"Congressman Tallis, let me give you some popular science."

Ryan smiled, but glanced at Victor behind him.

Said it was for Jace, but in fact it was also lecturing for Victor.

"The shell people have a very long history. They originally originated from Shurima. The first large-scale discovery in recent years was in the underground of Zaun, where there are still many crystals that the shell people turned into."

"Crystal?" Jace seemed to understand something, looking surprised.

"The essence of the Hex crystal you named is the original crystal into which the shell people merged."

Ryan, ignoring the shock of Jace and Victor, went on to elaborate:

"Long before man set foot on the scorching sands of Shurima, the unbridled power of primordial magic pervaded this desert. Between a group of precipitous cliffs and jagged rocks, there was a hidden canyon.

"There, the ancient shell people excavated the original crystal deep in the desert. Every noble shell people will fuse with a crystal, and after their death, their consciousness will be stored in the crystal for a long time, and this That's where hex crystals come from."

"So, there are a lot of Hex Primordial Crystals in the Zaun underground mines?" Jace couldn't help asking.

The crystals used in his research were previously funded by the Gilamain family, and were subsequently supplied by Mel, and he did not know its specific source.

"That's right, child. Originally it was guarded by our Philos family, and then it was taken by Myrdalda because of my incompetent younger brother."

Camille looked at Mel indifferently:

"I heard that the mine was lost a few days ago, and that it has belonged to Zaun."

"We weren't strong enough to defend, Zaun liberated it." Mel said bitterly.

"It's really useless." Camille shook his head. "First of all, according to Piltover's rules, let's vote first. I will represent the Philos family as the ninth member of the parliament. Does anyone have any objections?"

Under Camille's gaze, everyone, including Mayer and Heimerdinger, voted in favor.

Soon, there was another seat on the MP table, and Camille was sitting on it.

"She's so majestic. I like her character. She seems to have a problem with Noxus, but she can only bear it." Wei whispered in Caitlin's ear again.

Caitlin looked puzzled: "Can you see this?"

"Well, look at that Noxian man. He has a fake smile on his face. He has never looked directly at us, but when he looks at Camille, his eyes are a little serious." Wei analyzed.

"I thought you only knew fighting. What about Camille?" Catelyn quipped.

"I was born in the lower city, oh yes, now the independent name is Zaan. If you didn't have the eyesight to see it, you would have been secretly killed by someone."

Wei muttered:

"Kamil understands better, haven't you noticed, she has a strong personality, but she still only enters the door when her name is called. I guess if you were the mage, Camille would have slashed your face long ago. , the knife in her leg gave me an extremely dangerous feeling."

"I'm Mrs. Piltover, how could she treat me like that." Caitlin said angrily, "I recall some things about Congressman Camille, maybe I have to call her grandma according to my age."

"It's not surprising, I've already seen that her silver hair is real." Wei instead nodded seriously.

Camille sat down on the seat of the House of Representatives belonging to the Philos family, twisted his neck to look around, and said first:

"We don't have any time to waste, let's go straight to the topic. I propose to fully develop hex technology and augmentation technology, and let me lead the team to destroy Zaun."
