LOL: Summoner of Goddess Jana

Chapter 145 Zaun's Independence Strategy (Please Subscribe~)

After a long time, Li Wei was in his office again, and saw Silko who came to visit him.

Silko seems to have sorted out his personal entanglements with Jinx and Vander.He's here to discuss business.

"How is it?" Looking at Silko's slightly relaxed expression, Levi couldn't help asking him curiously: "Is your relationship with Van der repaired?"

"Repair?" Silko raised his eyes: "No, I have nothing to do with him for a long time. How about repair?"

Van der has long been a daily man without ambitions, while Silko is a political animal with ideals.

He and Vander completely parted ways many years ago, and it is impossible to get back together.

"Fandre will never forgive me for what I did to him. Of course, I never cared what he thought of me." Silko said lightly.

"So, the talk is over?" Li Wei asked.

"That's not true." Silko replied: "I negotiated with Vander, and Jinx will still live with him and her sister. But Jinx has to go back to her house in Zaun for the weekend, or let me come here Visit her."

"If Jinx wants to come to me, they can't stop them."

Li Wei: "."

This agreement sounds weird, like a divorce judgment.

Keke Li Wei tried hard to dispel this strange thought, and commented teasingly: "In other words, Jinx chose to stay with Van der? It seems that you still lost."

"No." Shirko said confidently: "Her name is 'Jinx' now, not 'Bangbo'."

"Jinx is Jinx, and she's not going to change it back."

"This is more important than who she chooses to live with."

As he spoke, a touch of tenderness could not help appearing on Silko's stern face.

But he is different from Vander after all.He is not only a father, but also a man with ideals.

So Silko quickly skipped his family affairs and talked about business with Levi.

He asked straight to the point: "President Li Wei, before the formal cooperation, I still have some questions to ask you."

"As far as I know, the Association of Leaders has cooperative relations with the four major families of Myrdalda, Gilamann, Galask, and Philos. I want to find out what is the relationship between Leaders and them relation?"

This has always been the doubt in Shirko's heart.

Although he is now sure that the Guild of Leaders is not a lackey of the Pichengers.But he is still very concerned about the true relationship between the association and these big chaebols.

"Actually, the truth is not that complicated." Li Wei replied frankly: "Myrdalda and Gilamann invested in us because the head of the Myrdalda family, Senator Mel, and the daughter of the Gilamann family, Miss Caitlin, They are all official leaders."

"What?" Shirko was slightly taken aback.

He didn't know Caitlin, but Mr. Mel?

Isn't that the person behind the scenes of the Piltover Council, the number one enemy he envisioned?

Even she voted for Janna?how can that be?

"How is it impossible?" Li Wei smiled.

At the beginning, Mel just tried to invest a start-up capital for the leader with good ideals and a venture capital mentality.

At that time, she was not yet a leader, but a shallow sympathizer.

Because she still had some doubts at that time, whether the goddess Janna was really on the side of the leader, and whether the big pie drawn by the leader could really be realized.

But later, when Mel discovered that she could gain divine power as a mortal by singing a song with faith—the existence of the goddess Janna was no longer in doubt.

So Mel had no worries at all.

"Now Senator Mel has officially joined the membership and is a true leader."

This news made Silko feel a little magical.

The daughter of the head of the Noxian warlord, the most powerful councilor in Piltover, turned out to be an underground member of the Leader.

"Haha, you, the leader of Zaun, the most powerful alchemy baron, aren't you also our companion now?"

After Li Wei explained this, Silko was relieved.

People can betray their birth class for the sake of ideals.He is the best example.

So he continued to ask: "What about the Philos family and Golask Industry?"

Stevan, the Patriarch of Philos, Renata of Golask Industry, and Silko have dealt with each other a lot in the open and in the dark.

He didn't believe that selfish and greedy people like Stevan and Renata would be idealists like him and Mel.

"Of course they're not."

"The Philos family and the Leaders' Association are just purely interested in cooperation."

Li Wei briefly explained the inside story of Stevan's need for Janna magic to continue his life, and continued:
"As for Renata Gorask"

Then, he introduced Renata's current situation.

This guy is now locked up in the leader's factory, working with the workers every day, and learning Janna's thoughts.

It is said that every time Renata was forced to attend a class, her face would look so ugly that she drank two catties of alchemy waste water.

In severe cases, the stomach may even vomit against the wall.

Serafini said that Renata had a serious mental illness.She can't see selfless people and things, and she feels disgusted when she sees them.

Just like the magic marsh frog that has been in the alchemy sewage ditch for a long time, it will be very uncomfortable when it comes to clean water.

Perhaps through her soul healing, Renata's problem can be cured.

Of course Levi did not agree to Seraphine's proposal.

Not only did he not agree, but he also installed a broadcasting speaker in Renata's cell that could not be turned off, and played the audio version of the "Leader's Daily" in a loop every day during the break, so that she could be full of positive emotions every day. Energy surrounds.

"This..." After hearing about Renata's situation, Silko was shocked.

Co-author Renata and her entire Gorask industry have long been controlled by the leaders?That.
"Then we can overthrow Piltover now and make Zaun independent!"

Rao Shirko was calm and calm, so he couldn't help being excited at this time.

The strongest forces in Zaun, the first is him, the second is Renata's Golask Industry, the third is Takeda Saito, and after that are some small and medium-sized companies whose strength is not at the same level as theirs. gang up.

The alchemy barons used to treat Shirko as their eldest brother on the surface, but in fact they acted independently and checked and balanced each other.

This made it difficult for Zaun's power to be truly integrated.

But now, Silko voted for Janna, Renata was controlled by Li Wei again, and the balance of power within Zaun had been completely broken.

Coupled with the leader's own strength, Zaan's independence is simply within reach!
"As long as we work together, we can control the whole of Zaun in a short time!"

"With the support of Zaun's manpower and material resources, we are qualified to compete with Piltover!"

Shirko's dream seems to be coming true soon.

But Li Wei shook his head: "No, Silko, we still need time."

"If our goal is only Zaun's independence, then we can indeed rise now."

Because Piltrows were never afraid of an independent Zaun.

"The Piltungers are not afraid of Zaun's independence, but they will be afraid of an independent Zaun who follows the goddess Janna."

"Once we gain independence in Zaun and raise the banner of the goddess Janna—then we will be enemies of those with vested interests in Piltover, Noxus, and all of Runeterra."

"They can recognize an independent Zaun, but they will never easily compromise with a Zaun that believes in the goddess Janna!"

The enemy in Silko's eyes has always been Picheng.

But Li Wei knew that his enemies would probably be the vested beneficiaries all over the world.

At the very least, the vested interests of Noxus will definitely be the enemies of the leader——

The sea-crossing canal between Zaun and Picheng is an important traffic route connecting the territories on the east and west coasts of the Noxus Empire, as well as the mainland and the southern colonies.

Just as America cannot sit back and watch Panama have problems, Noxus will certainly not sit back and watch Zaun change color and become an independent city-state following the goddess Janna who opposes the hegemony of the Noxus empire.

"Piltover is a de facto vassal of the Noxus Empire, and there has been a huge amount of interest exchanges between the great families of Piltover and the military nobles of Noxus all the year round."

"What if we achieve independence in Zaun, and Piltover unites with Noxus to block and embargo us?"

Li Wei didn't say much about the content of the "Zuan Investigation", but only said one thing:
"Zuan does not produce food."

Shirko was silent for a while.

Indeed, if you can't even be self-sufficient in eating, how can you talk about independence?
The Picheng guys blocked the port and blocked the waterway, and the people of Zaun would start starving within a week.

"So we still need to wait patiently and develop in a low-key manner." Levi said: "After all, with our current strength, it is not enough to break the blockade that Noxus may launch in the future."

Just telling him to wait patiently might not be able to make Shirko feel at ease.

So Levi revealed a little bit about his future strategic direction:
"On the one hand, we will start to establish a base in Zaan, and gradually spread the leader's beliefs to the entire Zaun."

This is to enhance Janna's strength.

"On the other hand, we will seek to build our own navy."

"Navy?" Shirko was slightly taken aback.

He didn't expect that Li Wei didn't even have a base, so he started thinking about building a navy.

"Because we do desperately need a navy!"

"If you want to realize the independence of Zaan, you must first ensure the supply of supplies in Zaan."

"If you want to ensure the supply of supplies in Zaun, you must first ensure the safety of the sea lanes."

Shuangcheng is surrounded by mountains in the north and mountains in the south.Hexair door shipping is extremely expensive.If you want to transport bulk materials from other countries, you can only ship them by sea.

And Zaan doesn't even have a warship now, so how can it ensure the safety of the waterway?

Can't let the goddess Janna patrol the sea every day and escort the ships after independence?

Unless Janna has the strength to crush the Noxus Empire head-on, Noxus dare not offend Zaun at all.

Otherwise, even if Noxus dare not attack Zaun due to the deterrence of the goddess, they can completely block Zaun in a disguised form by harassing the waterway.

But it is foreseeable that for a long time in the future, Janna will not have such a powerful strength.

"During this period of time, a delicate balance of strategic deterrence will be formed between Goddess Janna and the Noxus Empire."

Just like everyone has nuclear warheads, if you don’t dare to hit me, I don’t dare to hit you either.

Once a full-scale war breaks out, both sides will suffer.

Under such circumstances, Noxus would certainly not attack Zaun head-on.

But what would Zaun do if they didn't attack all out and just harass ships and block waterways with their navy?
A full-scale war will cause heavy casualties, and a full-scale war will completely be controlled by the enemy in terms of material supply.

Of course, the best way is not to use Janna, the "nuclear weapon", to turn the tables and start a full-scale war.

Instead, conventional weapons were dispatched to repel Noxus in a limited local war on the sea.

There are "nuclear warheads" that can guarantee safety.

But with the navy, development can be guaranteed.

"So, not only do we need Goddess Janna - we also need the Navy!"

"A powerful navy capable of area denial and capable of ensuring the safety of Zaun's import and export channels!"
