I, Folyago, am the most devoted lover in Runeterra.

After exchanging a glance, the two stopped arguing and stood on either side of the main hall, quietly waiting for the woman to arrive.

Before long, a stunningly beautiful figure slowly approached, surrounded by Secretary of the Army Foxy and Chancellor of the Exchequer Pitt.

Sarah slowly sat down on the throne and spoke softly with her red lips.

"Give me a seat."

His tone carried the unfathomable aloofness of an emperor.

Soon, palace guards brought two chairs and placed them beside Renata and Jagu.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." X2

The two bowed to each other and then sat down, their manners slightly different, which represented two completely different cultures.

"There's really nothing else I wanted to do by summoning you two here."

"The Bilgewater Navy is currently planning a large-scale upgrade of its propulsion systems."

"We estimate that approximately two hundred ships will need to be upgraded."

"I intend to use the product provided by one of the two to accomplish this goal."

Sarah spoke casually, reclining on the throne in a very relaxed manner.

The first "bidding conference" in this other world never expected to begin in this way...

Sarah's words, however, had a completely different meaning when they reached Jaggu and Renata's ears.

Although the two had anticipated that the large-scale upgrade of Bilgewater's warships would be a "big business."

But I never expected it to be such a "big" deal.

Originally, although the two were optimistic about the business deal, what they were actually optimistic about was the opportunity to trade with Bilgewater in the long term and even completely monopolize it.

Now, the power upgrade of more than two hundred ships has made it difficult for the two of them to give up.

Especially for Jagu, under normal circumstances, even if someone were willing to purchase Hextech Cores, they would at most order three or five at a time.

After all, the cost of a Hextech power core is extremely high.

For someone like Sarah to order over two hundred at once is simply a historic miracle.

This single order is enough to drive the further development of Hextech in Piltover.

This made the two even more determined to win!

..........

Sarah winked at Foxy beside her, then said nothing more.

After all, if the Empress needs to do everything herself, what use are these subordinates to her?

"I'm sure you two are already aware of our needs."

"Now we need you two to demonstrate the advantages of your respective products so that we can make a final decision."

Foxy spoke slowly with a smile, his expression like that of a fox that had caught its prey.

Lena and Jagu's eyes met again in mid-air.

The first strike wins; how could they not understand this principle?

"Your Majesty..." X2

The two spoke at the same time, each trying to gain the upper hand. Given their unwillingness to yield to each other, chaos is likely to ensue sooner or later.

"Let Lenata speak first, after all, we're old friends."

The empress's languid voice interrupted their confusion.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lena slowly rose to her feet, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her eyes.

In contrast, Jagu's face was somewhat ashen.

But since the Empress had already spoken, he could only endure it.

Suddenly, Renata opened the iron box she was carrying, and four small flying saucer-like mechanical devices flew out of it.

This is the alchemical mechanical assistant of Lie Nata 3.4, and her helper in her daily work.

Then, a beam of infrared light suddenly shot out from Lenata's mechanical assistant.

A red light screen appeared in the main hall.

In this mysterious palace, infrared technology projection suddenly appeared.

It just looks so out of place.

But this is indeed standard practice in Runeterra, so no one seemed surprised.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look..."

Lena pulled out a metal rod from somewhere and began to explain, pointing at the infrared projection.

Her explanation was very insightful and easy to understand; in just a few moments, she clearly explained the advantages of the alchemical power plants she planned to provide to Bilgewater for upgrades.

"According to our estimates, after the alchemical power furnace is installed, the power will be increased by 5 to 8 times compared to traditional sailing warships."

"I believe His Majesty the Misfortune has already experienced this."

Lena looked at Sarah and began to explain in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Sarah nodded noncommittally.

During the Battle for Change in Bilgewater, Sarah, piloting the Doom, truly experienced the advantages and disadvantages of the Alchemy Furnace.

The content is roughly the same as what Renata told us.

Finally, under the approving gazes of Foxy and Pete, Lenata finished her explanation.

Chapter 197, Piltover's Treasure

When it was Jagu's turn, his expression became even more unpleasant.

The saying "He who strikes first gains the upper hand, he who strikes last suffers the consequences" is always true.

Lenata's preparations were so thorough that even Jagu herself couldn't help but feel that Lenata's plan was actually the best solution for Bilgewater, which currently had virtually no technological capabilities.

Firstly, Zaun's alchemy technology has low production costs, which means that damage and repairs are relatively cheap.

Secondly, the structure of Zaun alchemy Cole is far simpler than Hextech.

With the technical support of Zaun, even Bilgewater himself was able to learn and explore some basic alchemical techniques.

This is clearly more appealing to Bilgewater.

As for Hextech...

If you teach a primary school student middle and high school courses, he might be able to understand some of it.

If you were to teach advanced mathematics such as differential equations and derivatives to an elementary school student, it would be a miracle if he could understand it.

In fact, under normal circumstances, Jagu wouldn't even need to continue speaking at this point.

To reiterate, although the situation is somewhat unfavorable.

However... Jagu has absolute confidence in Hextech.

Jagu is confident that she has a trump card that can turn the tide!

He stepped forward slowly, faced everyone, and smiled.

As a "long-time friend" of Middarda, Renata couldn't help but frown.

People from Zaun hate people from Piltover!

There are many reasons for this.

But what Lenata hated most was undoubtedly the Piltover people's self-righteous and inexplicable confidence.

And at that moment, this smell emanated from Jagu.

..........

"Ladies and gentlemen."

"Now, please allow me the honor of demonstrating for you."

"The pinnacle of Piltover technology is also a unique treasure in the world."

"—Hextech Power Core!"

With that, Jagu released his cane.

The originally plain cane began to change shape in an instant.

A sphere with a blue exterior and purple energy surging inside suddenly emerged from it.

Anyone could sense an extremely exaggerated force surging within it.

This force is full of passion, enthusiasm, and surging energy...

Anyone who sees it will find themselves somewhat captivated.
