93 Rules

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's words, Jayce was the first to raise his hand without hesitation.

Yuan Chen didn't mind and asked directly, "May I ask?"

Are you denying all of Piltover's achievements?

Jayce frowned and asked bluntly:

"Hextech no longer exists? How laughable! I admit that Ixialia may have had many outstanding achievements in magic, but what right do you have to deny Hextech? What right do you have to deny the efforts we have made for the future!"

It's clear that Jayce has now realized that Ixialia is far more than just a simple group of natives.

At least, after adjusting the circuitry and confirming that there were indeed many details to optimize in the Hextech Transforming Hammer, Jayce put aside his initial resistance and began to examine, or rather, debate, the issue as a scholar.

Jayce's speech resonated with many, especially the civilians of Piltover, who were abuzz with discussion after hearing Jayce words.

They didn't know what Ixialia; all they knew was that this group of inexplicable visitors had immediately belittled their prized Hextech.

"Hextech... does have its merits." Hearing Jayce's words, Yuan Chen nodded, then extended his hand and said:

"In fact, I don't dislike, and even quite like Hextech, a magical engineering field that extends from the basic energy of 'magic power' formed by magic."

"This solid-state crystal battery can provide a long-term and stable energy source. With further development, it can play a positive role in supporting the branches of Magic Itself, such as enchanting, inscription, and the operation and maintenance of large-scale spells."

Hearing Yuan Chen's praise, Jayce was somewhat taken aback. He didn't sense mockery in Yuan Chen's tone, but rather a sense of approval.

But if Yuan Chen agrees, then why...?

"If that's the case, why did you say Hextech no longer exists?"

"Because it is too crude, the negative effects it produces far outweigh the benefits it can bring." Yuan Chen looked at Jayce and said calmly:

"To my knowledge, Hex Crystal can already be manufactured artificially."

Although there is a significant difference in purity and energy capacity compared to that of natural Hextech Gemstone refined and forged, it is sufficient for civilian use.

"Whether it's refining Hextech Gemstone or synthesizing it artificially, the crude processes involved inevitably lead to widespread pollution..."

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's words, the scholars listened thoughtfully—in fact, neither ordinary people, financial tycoons, nor even scholars knew much about the manufacture and processing of Hex Crystal.

Because both the raw Hex Crystal mines and the artificial synthesis and purification processes are core secrets that the Ferros Family never reveals to outsiders.

It is precisely because the Ferros Family a near-absolute monopoly on Hex Crystal that they were able to squeeze into one of the four major families as latecomers.

Although few people know this, it doesn't mean no one knows. Sure enough, upon hearing Yuan Chen's words and guessing what Yuan Chen wanted to say, Heimerdinger almost subconsciously frowned with a serious expression.

Sure enough, a cold voice came through the intercom immediately afterward. "Sir Envoy, please refrain from discussing matters unrelated to your visit."

Upon hearing that cold voice, Yuan Chen raised an eyebrow and then looked around the venue.

From their seats at the podium, Yuan Chen and his group had the widest possible view.

Just like standing on a podium, students may think they have successfully hidden their little actions, but in reality, everyone's every move in the room can be clearly seen if you have enough energy to discern them.

With nothing on the sidelines, Yuan Chen turned his gaze upwards.

Sure enough, right above the entrance to the venue, a white-haired woman was sitting quietly watching him from behind the huge VIP seats.

Beside the woman were several other figures, some standing, some sitting, and some lying down.

It's foreseeable that they are probably some of the most powerful and influential people in Piltover. At the very least, ordinary people wouldn't be qualified to share a room with Camille.

Looking at Camille, Yuan Chen wasn't worried; instead, he smiled.

"You think I don't know who you are? Camille, the chief spy of the Ferros Family."

Upon hearing this, Camille's gaze narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in the energy arcs within her eyes.

She didn't know how Yuan Chen knew about her, but in any case, once she finished what she was doing, Camille would carry out another round of purges within the family.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Yuan Chen asked bluntly, "Is it that your Hextech Heart hasn't reacted? Or did Hakim's customized modifications strengthen your body but not your mind?"

"Enough!" Camille's voice held a hint of impatience upon hearing the name Hakim.

Yuan Chen tilted his head in confusion, too lazy to say anything, and simply flicked his finger, and a stream of light shot out from Yuan Chen's waist.

Accompanied by a streak of intense light and gasps of surprise, the sharp blade sliced through the air, easily piercing through the thick bulletproof glass and hurtling towards Camille's chest.

Camille's gaze narrowed, and a surge of deep blue energy erupted from the Hextech Heart in his chest, instantly forming a fully enveloping energy field in front of him—click!

The energy field was easily pierced as soon as it was formed, and under Camille's tense gaze, the Dragon Tooth Flying Dagger, like a work of art, gently landed on her chest.

To be precise, it landed on her Hextech Heart.

"Are you ordering me around? You don't really think I'm some kind of nice guy, do you?" Yuan Chen asked calmly.

"Who do you think you're talking to?"

As they spoke, realizing something was amiss, a large number of guards quickly surrounded the scene. The citizens began to flee in a panic.

However, the reporters became even more excited, snapping photos and videos of Yuan Chen and Camille with their cameras and microphones, completely ignoring the stares of those around them and the warnings from law enforcement officers.

In contrast, after hearing Yuan Chen's words, Camille remained silent for a moment before saying, "These are the rules of Piltover."

"I made a decision a long time ago," Yuan Chen said, "Given the opportunity..."

"I will only follow the rules that are in my favor."
