Chapter 280: Lux, President of the Debang Branch
When Lux was a child, she was also punished by her mother and put in confinement for being naughty, but this time was different.
The hotel room was tightly guarded by maids with swords, and there were even guards outside the windows. No matter how angry she shouted, no one would respond to her words.
She was like a prisoner.
On the first day, she insisted on having another three hundred debates with her mother.
The next day, she just lay on the bed like a salted fish.
On the third day, Lux, just as Lady Ogatha had expected, became somewhat withdrawn and confused.
"Am I really wrong?"
“No…No!”
"I am not wrong! It is my mother who is wrong. She cannot convince me morally, so she wants to use violence to make me surrender. I will never give in like this!"
Lux clenched her fists excitedly...
Turned over in bed.
"Ah..." After all, she was only a 13-year-old girl. She had only been exposed to Janna's thoughts for less than a day.
She didn't even understand the booklet very well before her mother took it away rudely.
Now Lux only knows that she needs to do something, but she doesn't know what to do specifically, how to act, and whether she can succeed.
No one can tell her these questions now.
Without companions or teachers to guide her, and without books or theories to learn from, she was trapped in the prison alone. Naturally, her young and immature faith was easily shaken.
finally……
"Knock, knock, knock." There's knock on the door.
"Oh, is it time for dinner again?" Lux, with a messy golden hair and wearing pajamas that she hadn't changed for three days, climbed out of bed in a daze.
She thought it was time for dinner again. After all, she hadn't seen a single living person in the past two days except when she delivered meals.
But this time when I opened the door I saw:
"Sona?" Lux's eyes lit up.
"Aba Aba..." Under the careful gaze of the two sword-wielding maids at the door, Sona gestured to her, "Lacus, I'm here to see you."
"My mother let you in?" Lux was overjoyed but confused.
"Yes, Lady Ogatha also felt sorry for you, so she allowed me to accompany you." Sona gestured.
"Humph!" Lux curled her lips: "Is she that good?"
Sona nodded. Lady Ogatha was essentially quite gentle, whether to others or to her own daughter.
Of course, the most important thing is:
"Aba Aba..." Sona is a mute.
A mute can't spread Janna's theory to Lux, right?
Although that sign language can express many daily expressions, it is not complex enough to fully express Janna's theory.
not to mention:
The two sword-wielding maids helped Sona open the "prison door", then followed her in rudely and stood there.
"Ms. Lux , please allow us to protect you and Miss Sona here."
Lux: “…”
Protection? This is clearly surveillance!
With two spies watching here, what can she and Sona talk about?
"Aba Aba..." Sona winked at Lux.
Then, she held Lux's hand and sat down side by side, just like a close friend playing with each other. After sitting down, she didn't say anything, but just took out a walkman and played music, as if she wanted to share with Lux the good songs she had recently found.
The maids didn't notice anything unusual, but...
"I can talk to you with my mind." Sona's voice came directly into Lux's mind through the contact of skin.
"Ah!" Lux's golden hair trembled, and then she realized that Sona also knew magic. Moreover, it was very useful spiritual magic.
"I have learned some magic skills from Miss Seraphine these past two days, and now I can barely control my abilities." Sona paused and continued:
"Lacus, Miss Seraphine asked me to bring you a message—"
"She already knows your intentions, and Goddess Janna also knows your beliefs."
"Oh?" Lux immediately perked up. What she needed now was guidance from her seniors.
"Sona, did Miss Seraphine tell you what I should do next?" she asked impatiently.
Sona nodded, "Yes."
What should Lux do next to realize her ideals in Demacia?
"Miss Seraphine has given you two paths. The first one is..."
"Yes?" Lux was anxious.
"Do nothing." Sona said.
Lux: “???”
"Yes, the leader thinks you are still too immature. You need more theoretical study and practical training to become a qualified leader."
"And Miss Seraphine also frankly said that Demacia's Jannaism movement has always been at the bottom of the priority list in the future strategic planning of the Leader."
The next focus of the Leader's work is Ionia and Noxus.
The combined population of these two places accounts for more than 60% of Runeterra, and the Noxian Empire is now the undisputed center of human civilization.
If the Leader can succeed in these two places in the future, he will almost be successful in the entire Runeterra.
As long as those hundreds of millions of Noxians can become believers of Goddess Janna, then Goddess Janna will be invincible in the world.
The rest, such as Demacia, Shurima, and other kingdoms and city-states, are just like mantises sitting on a chariot and grasshoppers waiting to be snatched away in autumn. We can completely win without fighting and conquer the country with just a message.
“So you can do absolutely nothing, Lux,” Sona said.
"This..." Lux could understand what Sona meant.
But she still instinctively felt that there was something wrong with lying on the ground and waiting for others to free her.
"What about the second way?" Lux asked.
"The second way is this." Sona's tone became serious: "You will lead the future Janna movement in Demacia—"
"As long as you can continue on this path, you will be the future leader of the Demacia branch."
The Leader has no spare energy . But if the Demacians are willing to spontaneously accept Janna's ideas and set off a Jannaist movement, the Leader will certainly be happy to help.
And Lux, this noble girl with infinite fighting passion, immature but firm faith, and a transcendent status in Demacia, is obviously the best person to help the Leader open up the situation in Demacia.
"I do!" Lux finally found an organization.
"So what exactly should I do?" This is what she wanted to know the most. She has been thinking about this for the past two days.
"First of all, you can't go back to Demacia for the time being."
Lux is now both a demonbearer and a windleader, which is extremely politically incorrect in Demacia.
After she returns, she will definitely be kept under even stricter surveillance by Madam Ogsa.
"This..." Lux's expression changed slightly.
Yes, Demacia is conservative and closed. If she went back, she would be locked up in the Crownguard family's manor, or even in the countryside of Mithril City, with her mother's sword maid always by her side...
Then she would be completely like a kite with a broken string, and another form of prisoner.
If she had stronger personal abilities, she could still fly alone even if the kite string broke. Just like when Levi went to jail alone, he was able to develop several leaders in the jail in less than a week.
But Lux now only has enthusiasm, but is not familiar with the theory and does not know how to put it into practice. If she goes back to "jail", she will really just be in jail.
"So you need to stay here and receive further theoretical training. I will help you with this." Sona pointed to her brain.
She learned a lot from Seraphine in the past two days. She went to factories, attended promotional meetings, and listened to friends from Shurima, Demacia and even Noxus talk about their life experiences.
Even President Li Wei of Leader had personally given her theoretical courses.
Although Lux cannot experience these experiences, Sona can share them with her through mental magic.
"What then?" Lux asked again, "After I finish my studies, what can I do when I go back?"
"If you go back alone... I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything." Sona said directly.
This is also what Levi and Seraphine analyzed for her.
The social environment in Demacia was extremely closed and conservative. Strictly speaking, there was no soil for the immediate rise of the Janna movement.
There are not many workers in Demacia, and not even many urban residents. The tenant farmers and serfs who make up the vast majority of the population will never leave the countryside which is tightly controlled by the noble lords throughout their lives.
Not only do they lack the cultural literacy to understand Gana's theory, but many of them have been brainwashed by feudal ideas of loyalty since childhood, and have completely submitted to the control and enslavement of their monarchs, that is, the aristocratic lords, and do not even have the simple consciousness of resistance.
Not to mention, the already expanded and powerful Demon Hunter Army is like a shadow, almost everywhere.
These spies used to be able to search for mages among the crowd without any holes, and in the future they can certainly be used by the Demacia nobles to deal with the leaders who are active among the people.
This means that promoting Janna's thoughts and carrying out mass work in Demacia will be extremely difficult, and it will require a long time and massive manpower to achieve.
"If you go back alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to achieve anything."
"Besides, when you return to Demacia, Lady Ogersa will not give you the opportunity to move freely."
Sona told Lux about all the difficulties she might encounter in the future.
"Then what should I do?" Lux looked confused.
Her strength alone was too weak, and going back seemed to mean death.
"But you can develop more comrades to go back with you!" Sona blinked.
If there is no way to develop companions in Demacia, then first develop companions outside of Demacia. The emperor is far away from home, and even if Lady Ogersa wants to control her, she can't do it.
Once she develops a complete Demacia branch abroad and then returns to China to work, the situation will be different.
"But..." Lux didn't rush to get excited: "Where do so many Demacians come from abroad?"
As a feudal agricultural country, most Demacians are bound to the land their entire lives.
The few who can afford to travel abroad are limited by Demacia's conservative cultural traditions and are unwilling to step out of the protection of the Forbidden Magic Stone Forest to places where dangerous magic exists.
Therefore, there are very few Demacians . Only a few Demacian smugglers can be seen overseas, and they come and go in a hurry on the sea, so they are obviously not suitable to develop into long-term comrades.
"That was true in the past." Sona seemed to be prepared for her question. "But from now on, you will be able to see many Demacians even abroad."
"Oh?" Lux was puzzled: "Where?"
“My homeland,” Sona answered. “Ionia.”
