-147- Not like this

The next day, in the morning, Linwin first took Kai'Sa to Piltover. 

While Powder, Zeri, Kai'Sa, and Seraphine were busy rehearsing, Linwin flew back to Zaun.

Camille was present at the time, but she didn't intend to accompany Linwin to Zaun. 

The rare reason Camille gave Linwin was because of Fiora. 

For some unknown reason, Camille felt inexplicably irritated whenever she saw Fiora. 

This baseless irritation made Camille herself find it strange because, in Camille's world, the only things that could evoke emotions were her family, Piltover, and Zaun.

Hence, during Fiora's stay in Zaun, Camille decided to avoid going to Zaun as much as possible, adopting an out of sight, out of mind approach.

After contemplating for a while, Linwin suddenly laughed. 

When Camille asked for the reason, Linwin naturally didn't say anything. 

This was a connection, a bond belonging to the baron lane sisters! 

If Camille felt annoyed by Fiora, would she also feel irritated by Riven and Irelia? 

And who was the leader among the baron lane sisters? 

////Probably mean that in Chinese lol community, they call Camille, Fiora, Irelia and Riven the baron lane sisters? ////

Nobody could give a convincing answer, but considering the win rates, the Steel Shadow and the Grand Duelist were in the top two positions. 

Although Riven had difficulty against Fiora, age-wise, Camille was firmly in control.

From the perspective of strength and various factors, each of the top lane sisters had her own strengths. 

Camille represented technology, Fiora represented martial arts, Irelia carried on a legacy, and Riven... well, what did Riven have?

Anyway, these were all digressions. 

Now, Linwin was about to meet the Demacian group. If during this time he could improve the Demacian's favorability and collect Fiora's or Lux's cards, it would be a great achievement. 

In Linwin's view, both Lux and Fiora had starting star ratings of at least four, with Lux likely being a five-star card. Linwin was naturally proactive when it came to anything that could enhance his strength.

"Janna."

"I want to find the Demacians who arrived in Zaun yesterday, the two women with red and blonde hair."

In mid-air, Janna's card radar activated. As soon as the words fell, a clear voice echoed in Linwin's ears. It was Janna's voice.

"They are in the middle-layer laboratory."

Linwin smiled and said, "Thank you."

---

In the middle layer of Zaun, at the experimentation ground of the Zaun Academy, Ekko was explaining Zaun's technology to the Demacians in place of Powder.

"Hello, I would like to know how this is made?"

Lux held a Hextech Hoverboard, her face filled with excitement. She questioned Ekko, "Of course, you don't need to explain it in too much detail. I'm just curious. Ekko, is this also made with Hextech gemstones?"

Ekko gave an explanation, "Hextech gemstones enhance the speed of the hoverboard and improve its performance, such as stability, endurance, defense, etc."

"But actually, if you're only pursuing the ability to fly, alchemical technology can achieve that. It requires a combustible energy source, such as special ores and oil."

Lux nodded eagerly, "This is truly amazing!"

Ekko continued to introduce the next device to Lux, but it was evident that his mind was elsewhere, and Lux noticed.

Approaching Ekko, Lux looked at him and asked, "Are you worried right now?"

"You noticed?"

"Ekko, you don't need to worry. Fiora will be careful. Perhaps you might think she's impulsive, but after meeting strong opponents, Fiora is usually calm."

Lux said with a smile. She knew what Ekko was concerned about. Fiora was probably dueling with the enforcers of Zaun now.

Ekko nodded, but his concern was about Vi, not Fiora. He worried that Vi might use Hextech and unleash a few punches that could leave someone half-dead.

Just as Lux was about to speak, she suddenly turned her head in surprise, looking up.

"Lux?"

In the air, Linwin paused, hovering, and looked at Lux.

"Councilor Linwin, you... can fly?"

Lux looked at Linwin in amazement. She knew Linwin could use magic, but she wasn't sure about the type. 

Was it wind magic? Moreover, he could fly!

Lux's eyes revealed envy toward Linwin.

"It's just a little magic."

Linwin landed on the ground, first patting Ekko's head with a smile. Then, he turned to Lux and asked, "By the way, how does it feel? Has Zaun earned your approval?"

"Of course, Councilor Linwin, I really like it here."

Lux nodded and said, "These things are both magical and interesting, especially those machines that can play music. Can I buy one to take back if possible?"

"No need, those things aren't worth much. The valuable part is the records inside." Linwin continued to say to Lux, "On the day you return to Demacia, I'll send you one as a little gift."

"Thank you!"

Lux said happily, "By the way, where is Fiora?"

"Sorry, Councilor Linwin, Fiora is currently in a duel with someone. I tried to stop her, and she agreed, but..."

Lux hesitated. On the side, Ekko approached Linwin and said, "Big bro, it's Vi."

"..."

"I understand."

Linwin raised his hand, tapping his forehead. He immediately understood what had happened. It meant Fiora probably challenged Vi, and although Lux tried to stop Fiora, Vi, the one challenged, agreed huh?

But this was entirely in line with Vi's character.

"Shall we go, then? Let's check it out."

Linwin said to Lux.

"Now? Actually, I prefer to see these things rather than Fiora's duel. If I want, I can see duels every day in Demacia."

Lux's eyes flashed with some reluctance. She was full of curiosity about the magical Hextech, something she couldn't see in Demacia, unlike duels.

"But since you invited me, let's go together."

Lux blinked her big eyes and said.

At this moment, Linwin noticed that Lux and Powder had similar, beautiful blue eyes. 

However, the difference lay in the depth of color, with Powder's eyes being a deeper navy, while Lux's eyes had a lighter sky-blue hue.

With thoughts about their similar age, height, and even eye color, Linwin and Lux found Vi and Fiora.

As they entered the arena, Linwin could hear Fiora's voice.

"Too slow."

"Your movements are precise and clean, but still too slow."

Fiora's proud voice echoed as she stood with her left hand behind her back, lifting a short staff with her right hand.

Her footwork was agile as she dodged a punch aimed at her face, then swung the short staff, striking the opponent's arm.

Vi grunted, but with a forceful push from her toe, her body spun, and she thrust her elbow towards Fiora.

"I told you, too slow."

Fiora raised her hand, lightly pierced Vi's waist, and simultaneously bent to evade the attack.

"Not like this."

"If the blade in my hand were a real sword, you would be dead by now!"

Fiora shook her head in disapproval.
