Chapter 82 [0080] Intention of Cooperation

Lux, who opened the door, had never expected that Jayce would actually come to Zaun, and bring an assistant with him, intending to study Hextech here.

"They don't know what they are talking about!" Jayce complained bitterly in front of Lux, "They don't believe in formulas, don't pay attention to logic... It's terrible..."

It can be seen that Jayce was indeed quite dissatisfied with the choice of the parliament. Even though he had Victor's approval, he still did not hide his attitude when he met Lux - of course, there must be some performance in this. When facing investors, Jayce has always been very smart.

And Lux ​​was naturally very satisfied with his choice. Although she didn't know anything about Jayce's research, it must be quite good to be described by Kalya as "somewhat good".

What's more, Kalya also said that Jayce's research could complement the Rune Tree project - maybe this would be an opportunity to bridge the gap between the two sides, who knows?

So, Lux gave Jayce the highest level of treatment within her ability to bear.

This treatment was too generous. Both the personal salary and experimental support were far beyond the normal situation. Moreover, Lux only wanted the right to use the patent, and did not need any other honorary rights.

Jayce was naturally quite satisfied with this treatment. Lux's generous attitude was not inferior to that of the Gilaman family, and even surpassed it. However, Victor, who was born in Zaun, was a little hesitant.

At this moment, Victor was a little suspicious whether Lux was a liar.

After all, in Zaun, cheating and deceiving were simply too common. It was said that even among the flesh and blood of the black alley, there were a few transvestites.

Under the pretext of going to the bathroom, Victor temporarily left Jayce who was still talking, and secretly found Vandal, wanting to inquire about Lux's background. Although Victor and Vandal had almost no communication, he was born in Zaun and knew the importance of Fulgrim's Tavern.

However, what surprised Victor was that Vandal gave a vague answer.

"Miss Lux... She is a very capable person." Vander, who seemed to have just had an argument with someone, looked a little tired. He held his pipe in his mouth, letting the smoke completely cover his face. "She is quite remarkable and has a lot of ideas."

"How is her financial strength?" Victor gritted his teeth and ordered a glass of the most expensive wine. "As a sponsor, it is not enough to just have ideas."

"Financial strength should not be a problem." Vander accepted Victor's gold hex and poured him a cup of tea. "It's from Ionia, got from Finn, and it is said to help sleep-at least she spends money lavishly, not that kind of liar."

"That's good..." After hearing what Vander said, Victor let out a long breath and then Then he drank the tea in the cup, "Thank you, Mr. Vandel."

"Zauans always help each other!" Vandel tapped his pipe, "You are also from Zaun, you should know how difficult it is to run a formal laboratory in Zaun - not the kind of laboratory for human experiments. I don't understand the delicate things like science, and I don't know whether it is suitable for Zaun, but I believe that it is better to have it than not."

"Well said, Mr. Vandel, you are much better than the members of the Piltover Council in this regard." Victor relaxed his brows and leaned on his crutches again, "I'm going back, so, goodbye."

Watching Victor limping out of the side door of the tavern, Vandel picked up his pipe again and took a deep breath.

In the smoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

This may be an opportunity... who knows?

……………………

Back at Lux's residence, Victor looked a lot more relaxed.

As for Jace, he was using his previous energy to repeat the speech he prepared for the councillors to Lux in full.

Lux had a blank expression throughout the speech. This part of the speech involved a lot of scientific terms. Even though Jace deliberately simplified it so that people could understand it, Lux still didn't fully understand it.

However, Kalya agreed with the content of his speech.

"Although he is still a long way from truly entering the door of magic, this application idea is quite good." Kalya commented, "And his direction is correct. Technology should be used to change life... The only problem is that this guy seems to have a little too much self-awareness."

"What do you mean by too much self-awareness?" Lux asked with some doubts, "This description sounds weird."

"It's narcissism." Kalya made a tut-tut sound, "Even if the theorems and inventions are not even a stroke, he has prepared a naming method. I personally don't hate others' confidence, but I hate people who are narcissistic-Jace first Law, Jayce's second law, won't he blush when he says these words? "

"According to Piltover's style, he does have the power to name these theorems, which is always correct." Lux was also full of desire to complain about this, "But to be honest, I really doubt his appearance." "I don't doubt his ability." Kalya finally made a judgment, "But this kind of guy needs to be watched more. Many people who are blinded by pride have this phenomenon in the early stages..."

In the end, it was Viktor who secretly pulled Jayce and interrupted his endless speech.

"We don't have much time, Jace." Victor lowered his voice and said, "Don't forget, those experimental materials are still locked in the academy's sundry warehouse."

"Ah, yes, speaking of this, we will bring some experimental materials back tomorrow." Jace smiled again, "As our initial experimental equipment, it can also be converted into our shares - can you prepare a place for us?"

"What do you think of this place?" Lux gave an answer that Jace never expected, "Compared to your laboratory, the space should be about the same?"

"This... is completely possible." Jace looked around carefully from a professional perspective, "However, I need to confirm that there will be no inexplicable vibrations or As for other unstable phenomena, Hextech crystals are not docile. Once they are stimulated, you know the result. "

"Don't worry, it won't happen." Lux smiled, "Even if the Noxians announce that they will annex Zaun tomorrow, this place will remain quiet."

"I like your sense of humor, Miss Lux." Jayce nodded with satisfaction, "Then, if everything goes well, see you tomorrow!"

Karliya's small class · Social Bullshit and Social Phobia:

Also a researcher, Jayce has amazing social talents - although his popularity is average, that's because in his eyes, many people are not worth mentioning; and on the contrary, Victor has a slight social phobia. He always maintains politeness, but this is just a disguise and cover-up to distance himself.
