Exchanging information
Aside from these unfavorable circumstances, there are also many favorable conditions at present.
The first step was the formation of alliances across different regions.
The effects of the alliance are enormous, especially after this meeting, when everyone will spare no effort to guide their respective peoples to communicate and gradually resolve long-standing conflicts.
If Demacia and Noxus can put aside their hatred and work together, what do other conflicts matter?
The collision of various cultures and technologies will undoubtedly generate tremendous driving force, such as Demacia's Nullifying Craft, Freljord's resilient spirit, Noxus's magical expertise, Piltover's cutting-edge technology, and so on.
Although it is inevitable that some people will commit wrongdoings during such exchanges, as countries gradually withdraw their border defenses and invest the saved resources in domestic governance, their overall strength will surely be elevated to a higher level.
Of course, it's impossible to assimilate everyone, and that's not conducive to development. However, it's not difficult to seek common ground while reserving differences and work together to make up for each other's weaknesses.
In addition, we have many powerful friends who support us.
The first one is Tam Kench. He got involved the most, starting by supplying Darius with talent from the very beginning of Darius's Allied War. That's how I got to know Darius.
Moreover, he has helped us in many ways, and most importantly, he has worked hard without complaint and never asked for anything in return. Many of the people he has trained are also very capable.
Lissandra is also a very powerful being. Although we haven't known each other for long, we have a good relationship. Since the disaster is related to the Void, she is even less likely to stand idly by.
I just don't know why she prefers to be called Lili. Has she lived for countless years and started acting young again?
Illaoi and her friend became friends after a tumultuous first encounter. Illaoi nearly killed Illaoi when they first met, but after teaming up against the Shadow Isles, they became friends, along with the sea god behind her!
Udyr and we had a falling out at first, but now we're allies fighting side by side; the power of the beast spirits is undeniable.
It's also worth mentioning Ryze. Although we've only met twice and haven't had any other in-depth conversations, I still know about his efforts to save Runeterra.
I believe that once he finds all the World Rune, it will bring about tremendous changes.
What remains is the mysterious continent of Ionia, but the forces we can currently mobilize and gather do not include Ionia.
Although my relationship with Irelia, Kennen, Sword Saint, and others is passable, I don't know if they would be willing to help me when it comes to fighting monsters.
However, I still have to go there. Even if I can't become the king of Ionia, I should at least try to win over some powerful forces.
After I finished analyzing all the information, everyone except Camille spontaneously applauded. They didn't have much to add; they mainly just explained their strengths and the difficulties they faced.
Ashe first explained the situation in Freljord. As everyone knows, Freljord is divided in two, and she can only represent the opinion of the west.
The Avarosa tribe has now achieved true unification of the west, and the issue of exclusion no longer exists; although the area is vast, the population is not large.
Furthermore, due to long-standing tribal traditions, Freljord lacks the unity of other regions, but Ashe believes that through her tireless efforts, this situation will improve.
There are currently no major issues within the territory. The main threats we need to be aware of are from the north, such as various ferocious beasts and strange tribes, and now the threat of the Howling Abyss has been added to the mix.
Ashe emphasized one point in particular: the western part of Freljord has abundant mineral resources, especially iron ore, which can be used to forge weapons.
Jarvan then explained the situation in Demacia. In truth, he didn't know much about his own country and needed to ask Garen about many things, but he had a general understanding.
The main problem Demacia faces now is that Sylas might make a comeback, but since Jarvan abolished the superior status of nobles and inferior status of mages, the people have become increasingly united, making it difficult for him to cause trouble again.
In terms of strength, Demacia's main forces still consist of the three legions: the Axebreakers, the Dauntless Vanguard, and the Royal Army, with many powerful generals.
In addition, there are many powerful individuals in the other five major families and some remote towns, some of whom are even comparable to Fiora.
Weapon forging has always been Demacia's strength, and since Freljord is willing to share its rich mineral resources, it will surely be able to produce more high-quality equipment.
After Jarvan finished speaking, I added something for him: let the House of Tabor study Galio, the Judicator; they might find something useful.
I clearly remember the time when I was Leivo, I used the House of Tabor's heirloom to activate Galio. I've never told anyone about this before, but now I'm telling Jarvan.
Camille then talked about the situation in Piltover. She had spoken the least during this half-day, and we thought she would speak last, but she was surprisingly proactive. Her words gave us a lot of new insights into the city.
Piltover isn't exactly a country; together with Zaun, it's only two cities. However, no one dares to underestimate the strength of these two cities.
Zaun is world-renowned for its alchemy and trade, and it attracts scientists and researchers from all over the world, most of whom come to conduct certain regulated, insane experiments.
These people are unassuming and may not seem like a big deal if you offend them normally, but if you really provoke them, the consequences can be severe.
For example, Warwick.
When he first arrived in Zaun, he suffered all kinds of bullying. Later, one night, after being robbed by some thugs, he planned to kill them to cover his tracks, but he didn't expect that the dagger had already pierced his heart. Warwick still stood up and instead transformed into a werewolf and tore them to pieces.
Witnesses quickly spread the word, and no one dared to mess with the seemingly frail old man anymore. Warwick also enjoyed a rare period of peace and quiet.
At the same time, I thought of Twisted Fate, who also mastered Insight Technique, Teleportation, and Mana Charge after being experimented on here.
The fact that such powerful magic could be mastered through experimentation demonstrates the remarkable skill of these scientists.
Although these people are crazy, they never do evil. They are only obsessed with the experiment itself, and the people who participate in the experiment are all volunteers. Occasionally, when they go berserk, they are dealt with by the guards. So far, there have been no accidents.
If we had to nitpick, Mundo would be an exception. He conducted many experiments, but all of them failed, yet he finally succeeded on himself.
Mundo has harmed many innocent people, but because he is a high-ranking member of the Kalin Family, Camille did not eliminate him.
In short, Zaun appears to be under Piltover's control, but in reality, it's only because the people don't resist that its power far surpasses Piltover's.
