LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

Chapter 299 The leader goes first

Let other people's children go.

Zeli's mother's words sounded a bit selfish.

But as a mother, she doesn't think she is wrong in thinking this way.

War is no child's play.

The Noxus Empire is an even more powerful enemy.

In recent years, the people of Zaun have become accustomed to hearing horrific stories from across the ocean about how the Noxian Empire crushed its enemies on the battlefield.

Zeli's mother, or any mother, would not want her daughter to become a character in these horrific stories.

"Mom." Zelie had to deliberately adopt an optimistic tone: "Don't worry. The Noxus Empire is not as scary as you think."

"They were already struggling in Ionia, and now that Ionia has the support of us and Demacia, the Noxians will be even less able to defeat us."

"I know it's impossible for Noxus to defeat the Wind Leader." Mother still frowned tightly: "But they may not be able to defeat you, child."

Zeli’s mother also believes that the leader will win the final victory.

But what if Zeli died before victory?

The leader may be the final winner. But a mother who loses her child is always the loser.

"Zeli, I know it's selfish of me to say this." The mother became more and more worried as she thought about it. In the end, she held her daughter's hand tightly and refused to let her leave: "But there are so many soldiers in Zu'an, and there is no shortage of them." You alone."

"Why is there no shortage?" Zeli said stubbornly.

She took out two things.

"If there is danger, the leader goes first." One is the blue bird badge that represents her membership status.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." The second is the sparkling light in her palms.

"I am both a leader and a transcendent. If war comes and I don't join, why should others?"

"No!" Mother gritted her teeth: "Zeli, don't give me any nonsense."

"I don't care what kind of leader or extraordinary person you are, you are still a child, my child! You still have parents at home!"

"Mom!" Zeli's green hair trembled, and she said with a bit of temper: "I am the only one who is a child. Am I the only one who has parents?"

"Children of other people's families are not children. Children of other people's families don't have parents?!"

"Uh..." It seems that there really isn't.

In Zaun, there are really only a few children like Zeli who have not been orphaned in their teens, have both parents, and are still alive.

"Then I have to go even more!" Zeli gritted her teeth and said, "The Zaun people have suffered enough in the past. Now that life has finally gotten better, why should we let those suffering children go to the front for us? Woolen cloth?"

"Not to mention, mother——"

"When the Wind Leader came to Zaun, you saw that life was getting better, so you encouraged me to sharpen my head and join the organization. Now that there is a war, you hope that I will become a deserter."

"Don't you think this is too much?" Zeli complained in Zaun dialect: "Even in the old Zaun, a guy like this without balls would be looked down upon by his neighbors."

"..." Mother said nothing.

Zeli raised her head displeasedly, but only met her mother's almost pleading eyes.

"Mom..." Zeli was also speechless.

It’s not that my mother didn’t know what she said. However, mother's love is unreasonable.

"But." Zeli pondered for a moment, and finally gathered enough strength to break free from her mother's hand that was holding her and refused to let go.

"Mom, do you think that since the war happened in Ionia thousands of miles away, it has nothing to do with Zaun?"

She knew that maternal love was selfish, so she stopped talking about Levi's progressive belief theory.

She only analyzed the pros and cons: "In fact, President Levi told everyone very clearly at the mobilization meeting within the organization about the importance of supporting the Ionian operation."

"Actually, Zaun has long been pushed to the brink of war by Noxus."

The Black Rose and the old aristocratic group that now controls the center of Noxus have regarded Zaun's leader as a major problem that must be eliminated.

Just because they are still unsure of the true strength of the goddess Janna, Black Rose now dares not to go out personally and take the risk to start a face-to-face war with Zunan.

They went on a killing spree against the Windleader branch in Ionia, firstly to stimulate more friction between Zaun and Swain in Piltover, and to force Swain to become the outcast who cast stones to ask for directions.

The second is using this method, not declaring a full-scale war but starting a war in disguise.

The Black Rose actually regarded the Ionian Army as an outcast like Swain, and tested the leader while leaving room for both sides.

If the leader cannot show off his majesty on the Ionian battlefield, cannot show his strength, or even retreats again and again, and is defeated again and again...

If it reaches this point and the goddess Janna, who is feared by the enemy, still fails to take action, then her terrifying deterrent effect as a "nuclear weapon" will be greatly reduced.

Then Noxus will definitely be emboldened to further test the leader's trump card.

"The battlefield will not be in Ionia then, but in Zaun." Zeli said worriedly.

"That, that..." Mother still couldn't understand: "Then let Goddess Jana help us... She saved us last time, this time..."

"No!" Zeli said sternly: "The Janna Goddess Movement should be a human movement, and Goddess Janna is not our nanny."

"In the past, many people in the organization became overly dependent on the goddess Janna and lost the fighting spirit of the leader as a pioneer of change. When they encountered big difficulties, they did not want to deal with it themselves, but only thought about a goddess falling from the sky. Help them."

"Such people are actually no longer true leaders."

"So the goddess told everyone through President Levi that in the future she will only help the leader when he faces a life-and-death crisis. The rest is up to us."

Li Wei said this to everyone, firstly, in order to improve the increasingly serious unhealthy trend in the association of giving up one's own efforts due to over-reliance on gods.

The second is to remind those leaders who have gradually lost their sense of crisis due to the blessing of the goddess, of the seriousness and cruelty of this war.

But in fact, the truth is much more serious than what Levi told the leaders.

The fact is that the power that the goddess Janna has now restored cannot compete with the Black Rose who controls the huge Noxus Empire.

Demon Tamu and the leader have a cooperative relationship, and he only agrees to help with some chores and deal with some minions. It was impossible to expect him, a demon, to fight for the leader on the battlefield.

As for Naga Kapoulos... As the "movement" itself, she will not personally interfere with the movement. So don't expect the leader to show up and give any help until the moment of life and death.

In other words, the "nuclear weapon" in the hands of the leader is just a fake.

If Noxus really uses sausage-slicing tactics to test the bottom line step by step and fight from Ionia to Zaun, the losses to the leader will be extremely heavy.

"Goddess Janna will help us, and probably Nagakapoulos will too."

"But mother, have you ever thought about-"

"When the situation deteriorates to this point, how many more people will we have to sacrifice before the goddess comes, and what will Zaun look like?"

"You think that if you let me escape from the battlefield, I will be safe. But if the war reaches Zaun, where can we escape?"

"This..." The mother was a little panicked: "Jana won't do this, she won't sit back and watch this happen."

"Why not?" Zelie asked.

"Because we are Janna's believers." Mother said, "The goddess will protect us."

"But are we really Janna's believers?" Zeli said with burning eyes: "Mother——"

"If the people of Zaun think like you, they will let their children escape the war and let other people's children go to the front line to carry guns like you do."

"In fact, there is no real leader in Zuan, and there are no so-called followers of the goddess Janna."

"Since we have all abandoned Janna, why can't Janna abandon us?"

"..." Zeli's mother was speechless.

Zeli, in turn, held her mother's hand and showed her will with the flashing light in her eyes:

"I am going to Ionia to fight the Noxus Empire, in order to keep the flames of war out of Zaun for you and for thousands of Zaun people."

"For the ideals of the leader, for everyone in Zaun, and for our little family——"

"I have to fight on the front line!"
