LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

"Vladimir." LeBlanc came back to his senses and looked at his old friend, the immortal controller of blood magic.

"Huh?" Vladimir slowly put down the goblet containing scarlet blood, his eyes becoming sharp.

He rarely saw such a solemn expression on the face of this trickster enchantress who maintained elegance and mystery at all times.

His intuition told him that what LeBlanc was going to bring him next would not be good news.

Sure enough, I just heard LeBlanc say: "I hope you go to Baru'e, Vladimir."

This made Vladimir's eyes instantly turn cold.

He knew what this meant: "You want me to participate in this war with the Wind Leader and let me test the Wind Leader myself?"

"Yes." LeBlanc nodded calmly.

"But you are not my master, LeBlanc." Vladimir said, "You have no right to order me."

He is a partner of LeBlanc and the majority shareholder of Black Rose. He is not a pawn that LeBlanc can use at will.

Why should he be allowed to do the dirty work of charging into battle?

"Because you are the strongest among us, aren't you?" LeBlanc said: "Now the Black Rose needs your power, Vladimir."

"Haha." Vladimir wanted to laugh when he heard this.

Regardless of the trump card Black Rose holds, he is indeed the strongest person in the organization.

But the problem is, he is the boss of Black Rose!

In this world, there are only precedents of employees working hard for their bosses. How can there be any reason for bosses to sacrifice their lives for the company?

No matter how good the company's performance is, does the life of his boss matter?

Vladimir's first goal in life has always been to ensure his immortality. As for the Black Rose and Noxus? Sorry, these extraneous things are not worth his life.

"I have asked the mages of my Scarlet Order to take Thain to support the Balu'e battlefield." Vladimir said: "They will naturally deal with those leaders."

"It's ridiculous." LeBlanc mercilessly exposed Vladimir's lame excuse: "Are you really unwilling to go to Baru'o because you believe that they alone can deal with the Leader? "

It's not because of fear of death.

The war taking place in Balu'e Province today was originally intended to destroy the regular combat power of the Wind Leader, thereby forcing out the Goddess Janna behind the Wind Leader and confirming the true strength of the Goddess Janna.

There are undoubtedly risks in doing so.

No matter Vladimir or LeBlanc, no one among the top leaders of Black Rose is willing to take such a risk personally.

So according to Black Rose's initial plan, the course of this war should be like this -

The Black Rose itself hides behind the scenes, allowing the imperial army to rush to the forefront and serve as pawns, allowing the one hundred thousand elites to crush the Wind Leader's conventional military force, achieving the purpose of forcing the goddess Janna to appear.

But the problem is...

"Now facts have proven that the one hundred thousand so-called imperial elites alone are unable to destroy the conventional military power of the Wind Leader."

After two months of busy work, they couldn't even capture a single mountain in Balu'e.

There is no need for Goddess Jana to appear in person?

If this continues, the anti-Nornian united front formed by the Wind Leader, the Demacians, and the Ionians alone may be enough to push back the imperial invasion force.

"Now that Noxus is fighting on four fronts, we can no longer mobilize more elite soldiers to support the Baru'e battlefield."

"And the over-the-horizon strike tactics invented by the Leader have almost wiped out the empire's numerical advantage."

This means that if the Empire wants to defeat the Wind Leader on the battlefield, it must support more and stronger extraordinary warriors from the past.

Within the empire, the only one who can recruit so many extraordinary masters at once is Black Rose.

"Now that things have happened, Black Rose can no longer hide behind the scenes and watch from the sidelines." LeBlanc looked solemn: "Do you know how quickly the Wind Leader's faith spreads in Ionia?"

The increase in believers will make the power of the gods more powerful, and LeBlanc knows this very well.

She didn't pay much attention to it before because the leader was just starting out at the time, and the spread of its faith was limited to the small twin cities.

And because the threshold for understanding Janna's thought itself is high, publicity and promotion is difficult, the leader has risen too quickly, and there is a lack of reliable political and propaganda cadres... Therefore, even among the millions of people in the Twin Cities, the leader is still Still unable to digest it.

Today, among the nearly 4 million people in the Twin Cities, there are probably less than 1 million people who believe in the goddess Janna, and most of them are just Wind Chasers with superficial faith.

It has only been less than a year since the birth of the leader.

In less than a year, from 0 to 1 million, this result is actually the result of using plug-ins, which is already very good.

Even Li Wei himself never thought at the beginning that he would export ideas and struggles to the outside world in the first year of the organization's establishment.

But what no one expected was that by chance...

"The faith of the goddess Janna is like a prairie fire, quickly taking root, sprouting, and spreading in Ionia."

"Compared to the twin cities of Zibenzhuyi, feudal and backward Ionia welcomes this knowledge of treating diseases of Zibenzhuyi."

This is actually not surprising.

The great success achieved by the Windleaders in Zaun caused many of them to unconsciously develop a habit of thinking and ignore the huge potential of Janna's ideas to spread in industrially backward areas such as Ionia.

Many leaders even believe that true leaders can only be born in modern industrial civilization.

You, Ionia, haven't even started to build the main body of Benzene yet, but you just started to build the main body of Janna. Is that feasible? Can a group of Ionian farmers who have never even seen a factory understand Janna's theory and become leaders?

Many people think not.

However, they all forgot one thing:

“In the words of the leader himself, struggle will always be where the conflicts are most intense, and success will be given priority.”

After Zaun was taken over by the Leader, social conflicts have been greatly alleviated.

Although the Zaun people are extremely grateful for the changes brought about by the leader and are keen to learn Janna's theories, their comfortable and stable life ultimately makes them less urgent in Janna's faith.

Although Ionia is a backward agricultural country, theoretically there is no soil for Lord Janna to take root and sprout.

But this is almost the place with the most intense conflicts and the most frequent conflicts in Rune Land, and it is also the place where Janna's thoughts are most urgently needed.

After all, in Ionia, facing the Noxian butcher knife...

If you don’t learn Janna’s thoughts and don’t have the goddess’ blessing at critical moments, it will really be fatal.

"So, we can't delay it any longer."

"If this continues until Ionians take the initiative to convert to Janna in order to protect themselves, then..."

Then why try it?

Even if the true strength of Goddess Janna is not as powerful as when she appeared in the Twin Cities before. After gaining so many believers, she will become a truly great and true god.

"By then, we will have completely lost - do you still need me to explain this to you, Vladimir?"

LeBlanc asked him in a serious tone.

But Vladimir remained silent and refused to express his position.

"You?!" LeBlanc frowned.

In fact, whether she, Vladimir, or anyone else from Black Rose...

They had all noticed the power of Janna's faith in Ionia a month or two ago, and they had long been aware of the danger hidden behind it.

Everyone knows that the war between the Empire and the Wind Leader cannot be dragged on any longer and must be resolved quickly.

But the problem is...

As a loosely organized underground mage association, Black Rose actually has many internal problems and is not united at all.

LeBlanc, Vladimir, and Yin Lisi, the top leaders of these organizations do not have a clear superior-subordinate relationship. Instead, they each form their own faction, each leading a force.

Yin Lisi has her own Vile Throat Church under her command;

Vladimir has a Scarlet Order who are loyal only to him;

LeBlanc also has a mage spy force that she personally trained.

In short, everyone in Black Rose has their own direct troops, and their strength is not weak.

But when the time comes when experts are needed on the battlefield, everyone only wants to preserve the strength of their direct troops, giving priority to the imperial army and letting "miscellaneous troops" like Urgot and Du Couture go to the front line to work.

The result is...

The imperial army could not defeat the leader, and everyone in the Black Rose was reluctant to take action. They only wanted to hide behind the scenes and mobilize more imperial troops to support Balu'e to try to change the situation of the war.

As a result, it has been delayed until now, and all the elite troops that Noxus can support have come to support...

Not only was the leader not defeated, but he became more courageous as he fought, with a strong tendency to switch from defense to offense.

"Vladimir, what time is it now, and you still want to preserve your strength?" LeBlanc asked rudely.

Vladimir was unmoved at all, and even asked in disdain: "You want me to go to the battlefield, but what about you?"

"My abilities are not suitable for use on the battlefield." LeBlanc replied calmly: "Of course, if you ask, I am also willing to accompany you."

"Huh." Vladimir didn't believe it.

He knew that LeBlanc was the same person as him.

Will she risk herself? ridiculous. I'm afraid she will just send a clone to pretend to act for him.

But LeBlanc is right again.

It is impossible to deal with the current leader without heavy punches.

"LeBlanc." Vladimir pondered for a moment, then tried to suggest: "If you are really worried about the Wind Leader, then why not just release the people in the Immortal Fortress..."

"No!" LeBlanc frowned.

"That thing is not so easy to control. After you let it out, if it gets out of control..."

"In short, this is our trump card against Mordekaiser. It cannot be used at the last moment, and it must not be used so easily. What's more, it is wasted on the ridiculous internal friction of human beings."

LeBlanc's tone was serious, like a heroic warrior who considered the interests of all mankind.

But she is actually not that noble.

She didn't want to use that trump card on the Wind Leader, just because she was more afraid of Mordekaiser than the Wind Leader.

After all, she still has united front value among the leaders.

With Mordekaiser, she only has entertainment value.

If it fell into his hands, it would be considered as light as breaking bones and scattering ashes. Being able to die a happy death is considered a gift from this tyrant.

"Vladimir, now is the moment to decide the life and death of the Black Rose." LeBlanc came back to his senses: "You, me, Yin Lisi, all of us must contribute our greatest strength to this battle."

"Otherwise..." She paused and looked at Vladimir, who looked indifferent: "If we lose, let the leader defeat Noxus and then rule the world-"

"Vladimir, do you think they will let you go?"

"Don't forget, the blood magic you use to maintain immortality consumes many lives every year!"

"..." Vladimir's face suddenly turned ugly.

LeBlanc hit his mark.

Among the many evil mages of the Black Rose, he is undoubtedly the one least likely to coexist peacefully with the Wind Leader.

Because he needs a literal "mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood" and the flesh and blood of countless living people as nourishment to maintain this powerful and eternal body.

If the leader is allowed to win the world, he will only be reduced to a shady gutter rat in the future, and will eventually be surrounded by the increasingly powerful leaders in the sewers, and die in frustration and despair.

"Is this the ending you want, Vladimir?" LeBlanc's question went straight to the soul: "Or do you hope that you can hide safely forever in a world ruled by a goddess?"

This is impossible.

The fervor of faith in Ionia has proven that if left unchecked, the leader will eventually march across the world.

By then, the power of the goddess Janna will become unprecedentedly powerful, and there will no longer be such a "pure land" in the world where Vladimir can eat people and drink blood in peace.

"Let's face it - if you don't take action now, you may never get the chance to do it again."

"I..." Vladimir thought for a long time.

After a long time, he finally agreed: "You convinced me, LeBlanc."

"I will take action in this battle."

"Very good." LeBlanc smiled confidently.

It seems that as long as everyone in the Black Rose unites, victory will be within easy reach.

But Vladimir asked again: "But what if we fail in this battle? If the goddess Janna is more powerful than we guessed, and if the leader can defeat us without the goddess Janna, then..."

"Well..." LeBlanc smiled but said nothing.

"You!" Vladimir's face was gloomy.

He knew what LeBlanc was thinking. This woman is the same person as him, extremely selfish, greedy for life and afraid of death.

The only difference is that it is impossible for the leader to accept him as a "vampire demon", while LeBlanc...

Sure enough, LeBlanc spread his hands and answered frankly and directly:

"It doesn't matter, I will surrender."

Vladimir: "..."

"Don't look at me like that." LeBlanc showed a sly smile: "If you want to save me, try your best to win back the victory for the Black Rose, my old friend!"
