LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

Levi's suggestion of the God-chosen Janna alliance made Swain fall into deep thought again.

The actual implementation of this plan may not be perfect, and there will be various problems. But it is definitely the closest system to a utopian ideal that humans can achieve now.

Swain believes that Runeterra will move towards a better future under the leadership of the Wind Leader.

But he still couldn't let go of Noxus.

He understood the theory of the leader and accepted that everyone was equal, but Noxians were always more equal than others in his heart.

To secure more benefits for Noxus, the best way is of course to control the alliance's power center.

But the more Swain wants to fight for special interests for Noxus, the further away he becomes from the center of power of the Alliance.

Therefore, Swain is destined to be unable to obtain the ultimate power he wants, allowing Noxus to have a special status in the Janna Alliance in the future.

"I'm afraid people like me are not qualified to join the Central Council, right?" Swain laughed at himself helplessly.

"Of course." Levi pointed out rudely and directly: "Based on your understanding of Janna's thoughts, the most you can do is become the president of the Noxus Wind Leader Association."

"As for this treatment, I made an exception for you just for the sake of united front work."

"Your disciples and generals who have the same hegemonic ideas deeply rooted in their bones will not receive such good treatment. Even if they surrender in time, they must undergo strict belief screening according to the standards of the leader."

"Only those who have truly changed their minds and reshaped their beliefs can become future leaders of the Noxus Leader Association."

Levi's words were straightforward enough, and Swain was also a smart man, so there was no way he could not understand them.

He could make an exception and become a future leader of the Noxian Leaders Association, but others could not.

In the future, apart from himself, there will probably not be another die-hard nationalist like him among the top leaders of the Noxus Leaders Association.

And his colleagues and subordinates all disagreed with him. Even if Naswein stayed for a while, there was absolutely no way he could bring New Noxus back to the old track of the Noxus Empire.

"The new Noxus will become stronger, but the hegemony of the old Noxian Empire will fall apart, never to return."

"So -" Levi asked: "General Swain, what is your choice?"

"To make Noxus great again, or to make the Empire great again?"

Swain: "..."

He thought for a long time and finally sighed: "I am willing to cooperate with the leader, but..."

"Do you still have concerns?" Levi asked.

"I still have many followers." Swain said pointedly.

His preparations for the coup had already begun, and so many disciples and former officials had quietly gotten into the car, waiting for him to step on the accelerator.

Now, the car was about to start, but the driver suddenly jumped into another car.

So what should these passengers do?

In response, Levi replied: "I am willing to give your followers preferential treatment and give them the opportunity to surrender anyway. As long as they can change their minds in time, there will definitely be a place for them in New Noxus."

"But they may not be able to 'change their minds.'" Swain knew very well who his followers were.

They are both a new military aristocracy hungry for privilege and extreme Noxian patriots. That's why they dared to participate in the coup with their heads raised, and followed Teacher Swain to "raise troops to Luo to attack the national traitors."

People like them probably won't change.

Swain, who has no selfish desires, would find it difficult to get around this corner.

Not to mention his group of students whose eyes turned red when they saw the title and the land, and they were as hungry and dissatisfied as hungry wolves.

"If that's the case, then..." Levi trailed off and stopped talking.

Because Swain is a smart man, he knows what the second half of this sentence will be.

Revolution Revolution means revolutionizing the lives of others and revolutionizing one’s own life. If Swain's followers would rather die than realize their obsession, they should be swept into the dustbin of history along with the old aristocracy.

Even though many of them are his friends, his students, and people who respect and love him.

Be it past ideals or comrades-in-arms. If Swain wants to become the leader, he must betray everything he has in the past.

"..." Swain remained silent.

Finally he said: "Levi, I also want you to agree to one condition."

"Those generals who follow me in the army, as long as they are willing to lay down their arms and surrender in the future, whether it is imprisonment or forced labor... no matter what, the leader must at least spare their lives."

"No problem." Levi agreed readily.

The leader's policy is not primarily about physically destroying the enemy, but about victory in faith. Based on Swain's united front value, his students are fully qualified to be sent to Stillwater Prison... no, to "Stillwater University" for further studies.

"So, what's your decision?"

Swain quietly said with firm eyes: "I am willing to join the Leader and bring a real change to Noxus."

He agreed to Levi's invitation.

Then, without waiting for Li Wei to respond, he changed positions at an astonishing speed and began to speak in the tone of a leader:

"President Levi, now we have to face a problem first."

"And that's the real reason for my visit."

"You mean the black rose?" Levi could guess it.

Swain, a "retired disabled veteran" who was a criminal who was demoted to a commoner by the emperor just a year ago, was actually promoted by the line of fire and came to Piltover with the cronies he single-handedly led.

Outsiders may not understand.

But Levi knew that this was clearly Black Rose's plan to use stones to ask for direction and kill with a borrowed knife against Wind Leader and Swain at the same time.

Casting stones to ask for directions is to once again test the true strength of the leader. To kill with a borrowed knife is to use the hands of the leader to get rid of the hidden danger of Swain. As a result, no matter whether the leader wins or loses, Black Rose is guaranteed to make money without losing money.

"Black Rose wants us to fight, right?" Levi asked.

"That's right." Swain said: "They have given me an order through Darkwill, asking me to issue a serious warning to you about the 'Leader Invasion' that occurred in Ionia more than a month ago. "

"If you can't give a reasonable explanation for this matter, they may order me to go to war with Zaun."

"Are you trying to create an excuse for war?" Li Wei raised his eyebrows.

He asked with a smile: "I thought Noxus never needed a reason to kill."

"We need the Wind Leader." Swain said: "Now the soldiers in Noxus know how powerful the goddess Janna is, and the generals also have their own ideas in their hearts."

Noxus is now fighting on four fronts, and no one is advancing smoothly.

After so many years of fighting, we have not reaped the benefits. It has resulted in a net loss of soldiers, generals, people and money.

Under such circumstances, no matter how bellicose the imperial general is, he cannot be bellicose.

Everyone has long been classified as a potential peacemaker in this endless war.

At this time, the emperor had nothing to do, and he launched a war against the leader for no reason... Even if it was just a local war in the twin cities, the brothers would not be able to hold on any longer.

"If there is no reasonable excuse to stir up people's hearts, and I, the former commander of the empire, come forward to advocate peace, then the military's morale will naturally follow me."

"Not only did they not succeed in forcing me to die, but they actually forced a mutiny that responded to everyone's call. This is probably not the situation Black Rose wants to see."

Therefore, the excuse for war may seem illusory, but it actually has its own meaning.

Only by having a good reputation can the already exhausted military morale be cheered up.

The leader took the initiative to provoke, and even reached out to Ionia to directly interfere in the empire's pioneering war, "ambitiously wanting to benefit from the war between the empire and Ionia"...

This excuse couldn't be more powerful.

"So you have to try your best to give a reasonable explanation so that I can mediate within the empire and buy time."

"What we lack most now is time..." Swain originally planned to delay for a while, and when preparations for the coup were completed, he would go directly back to the Immortal Fortress to launch a mutiny.

Before fighting against the outside world, one must first make peace with the inside. After taking care of the black roses, they can come back to deal with the leader.

Now that he is on the side of the leader, this plan seems to be changing.

But in the final analysis, time for peaceful development is precious.

"So, what's going on over there in Ionia?" Swain looked at Levi thoughtfully.

In fact, he also wanted to know why Levi suddenly sent a team to Ionia to cause trouble.

Your Zu'an side has not yet become independent, and is full of waste, so you are eager to export it overseas?

"This..." Levi was helpless: "You may not believe it, but what happened in Ionia really has nothing to do with me."
