Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 89 Victor's Symptom Attack

"It's not designed by you, but it's just that they came out earlier?" Zevi was taken aback for a moment, then he seemed to understand something, and took a deep look at Marcus.

"So...there is indeed a war in the future, but I don't know who started the war?"

Zevi's intelligence surprised Marcos. She was able to deduce a lot of information from Marcos' few words, and she tacitly did not say it in public.

"I like to live a peaceful life. No matter who provokes the dispute, I will stop the other party first." Marcus did not say clearly, because at the end of the original book, Jinx fired a shark rocket towards the parliament building, and now it explodes. His fate has been rewritten by him, so the two cities of Pizu should not be able to fight.

but……

It’s hard to say another empire full of war madmen. Although the original book didn’t explicitly remind it, it’s not hard to see that Noxus’s love for Peel can be seen from the arrival of Mrs. Myrdalda and what she said to Mel. Twolf is up to no good.

It was just that the Noxus war against Ionia had just ended in failure, and the power and political units within the empire were being purged, making it impossible to launch an attack on Piltover in a short period of time, so Lady Myrdalda thought of relying on her daughter to use Huairou Policy to win over Piltover to Noxus.

But all this is what Marcos does not want to see.

He has planned for five years, with no holidays, just to find an opportunity to completely control Picheng. If someone else picks the peaches in the end, he will not be killed?
"Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life?" Zevi recognized Marcus more and more, and said to Jess: "This is the real effort for peace, waste wood!"

After finishing speaking, she nodded to Marcos, turned and walked away.

"I..." Jess was silent for a while, and said loudly to Zevi's back: "I'm not useless! I'll prove it to you!"

"You don't need to prove it to anyone." Zevi stopped and said, "Mr. Tallis."

"Jess." Marcus put his hand on his shoulder in the past: "Let's start a new era of Hex technology."

It is no longer just to improve people's livelihood, but an era that truly stands proudly on the top of Runeterra!

The first step to open a new era, of course, depends on the Hex Core, and the key to the Hex Core lies in the stable Hex Crystal.

With Hakim joining the Philos family, the Hex Crystal will come out in at most two days.

By that time, the framework of the core of Hex will almost be built, and Atlas gloves and Hex claws will be produced by the way.

At one point, Marcus lied to Jace and Victor, the Atlas Gauntlets and Hex Claws do not actually need Hex Cores as support, they only need Hex Crystals with more stable energy to invest use.

The reason why he said that before was mainly because he hoped that the focus of Jess's research would not be shifted, otherwise the ghost knows if he would have a flash of inspiration and go to study some messy things again.

Atlas Boxing Gloves and Hex Claws are a good example.

If he hadn't known that these two props were related to the two heroes, Marcus would have stopped Jess and the others from 'playing around' long ago, and these two Hextech products would not have had the chance to appear in front of the world.

At least not so soon.

"I just hope...the weapons we have researched won't become the chief culprit for waging wars, otherwise we will be the sinners of Piltover." Jess said in a low tone.

Inventing weapons, this concept runs counter to his original intention of researching Hex technology. From the perspective of an inventor, he can accept other people to invent any weapons.

Just don't get involved with Hextech.

Hextech is like his child, no matter what kind of parents don't want their children to become weapons, right?
"Victor, you..." Jess turned around, but saw Victor bent over in pain, with one hand covering his mouth, his whole body trembling.

Jess was shocked: "Victor, what's wrong with you?"

Marcus's eyes sank slightly, and he knew in his heart that Victor's illness had begun.

From today onwards, Victor will go through a period of pain, it is fate.

From the moment he was born, it was doomed.

Victor persisted for a while, trying to stand upright, and finally shook a few times and couldn't hold it anymore, and fell to the ground.

"Victor!" Jess went over and hugged him horizontally, and rushed to the door of the research institute.

Marcus hesitated for a moment. He wanted to wait for Hank to come back and tell him to be optimistic about the research institute, but considering Victor's condition, he decided not to wait and quickly followed.

When leaving the gate of the research institute, I ran into a girl with dark skin and a slightly immature face.

Skye?

A name appeared in Marcus's mind. This girl seemed to be the one in the original book who was assimilated and swallowed by Hex's core because of Victor's research accident.

How did she come?

Oh yes, she was originally Victor's assistant in the original book, and she had a crush on Victor for a long time.

On the day of the accident, she originally wanted to confess to Victor, but she did not expect to bump into the scene of the research accident by chance, and she herself became a victim in order to save Victor.

It was also because of her that Victor became afraid of the mutated semi-finished Hex core at that time, but he couldn't bear it, and asked Jess to destroy the core in private during a conversation with Jess.

So Skye is here for a job interview today?

Marcus's eyes were slightly fixed, he turned his head and just saw Hank coming back, and shouted: "Hank, I'm going out to do errands, you watch the research institute!"

"……Yes."

Hank was holding two bags of pastries and tea in his hand, with a dazed expression on his face.

Although he didn't understand what happened, he just had to follow the orders assigned by the officer.

"Hello, is this the Hex Technology Research Institute?" Skye glanced at Marcus and the others who had gone away, and asked Hank instead.

"Uh... yes, what's the matter with you?" Hank glanced at the other party's attire, which was a common style in Piltover, and it should have just graduated from the academy.

"I am a graduate of Piltover Institute of Higher Technology. Here is my resume. Please take a look!" Skye expressed nervousness, grasping the resume file he made with both hands, and handing it to Hank.

Hank shook the things in his hand: "Come in with me first, the directors of the research institute have just left, if you don't mind, you can wait here and have some snacks by the way?"

"Then... I'm sorry to trouble you." Skye bowed, sweat dripping from his forehead.

This is the first time she has come out to look for a job, and she is extremely nervous.

What's more, this is the Hextech Research Institute, which has been famous throughout Piltover in recent years, and she is uneasy about whether she can get this job.

Follow Hank into the gate of the institute, and under Hank's arrangement, sit on the side of the simple tea table for guests at the entrance.

The waist is straight, the legs are close together, and the hands are slightly clenched and the resume is placed on the knee.

Seeing her like this, Hank understands that this is a sign of nervousness. When he went to the law enforcement agency for the first time to interview, his performance was not much better than Skye's performance at this time.
