Chapter 920: Once and for all
It can be seen that Jax already hates this kind of pickling method, but because of his special identity and the need to use the power of Demacia to fight against the Void, he has to remain forbearing.
Now that he has met Rod, Jax hopes that Rhodes can help him solve this trouble, so that these annoying guys can understand that he is not a breakthrough!
Rhodes expressed his sincere sympathy and deep greetings for Jax's plight, and happily agreed, considering that he also needed an opportunity to enter the political situation in Demacia.
Silas escaped from the Forbidden Prison, and the construction of the Forbidden Prison required a large number of Forbidden Stones - on the whole, the Forbidden Stone veins should have some connection to the Forbidden Prison.
The Forbidden Stone is a nuisance for the average spellcaster, but Rhodes is clearly not a "regular spellcaster".
In this way, Rhodes temporarily lived in Jax's martial arts hall, while Cana took Jinx and Anne to inquire about the prison escape incident in Demacia, and the two began to go their separate ways.
……………………
As Jax said, those who are looking for trouble don't give up easily.
Soon, a new trouble found Jax.
A noble descendant who had studied at Jax's gym and tried to catch up with Gavin IV was bribed to accuse Jax's gym of "using witchcraft to control people's memories" for an additional fee.
This strange-sounding statement was unexpectedly recognized by many people - there were also witnesses who were also bribed and responsible for leading the rhythm, and there were also some noble children who did not know the truth, but did think that the Jax Martial Arts Hall charged too much, and the turmoil soon became bigger and bigger.
The person who made the plan this time was obviously much smarter, and he no longer carried out a simple frame-up, because it was difficult for Jax to have a real impact on nothing, and it was easy to be exposed, so he chose an inexplicable way to pour sewage on Jax.
The aristocratic descendant who seemed to be a talented person fully showed his superb acting skills, and when he came to the martial arts hall, he was "easy to talk about and discuss" at first, but before he could say a word, his old mother appeared, and then began to accuse his son of spending money indiscriminately and spending all his savings - in this case, he finally "accidentally" revealed that it was an unknown witchcraft that caused the last continuation of the family to be taken to the martial arts hall......
Of course, the story is fake - but the acting skills of this mother and son are real, and in the eyes of the melon-eating masses, the truth of this story cannot be distinguished for a while.
It's enough to not be able to tell.
Soon, the enforcers of Xiongdu appeared on the scene, and then they also determined that it was impossible to distinguish whether the descendants of the nobles were bewitched or voluntarily, but fortunately, in addition to Jax, in addition to some cleaning handymen, there was also an "outsider" like Rhodes.
The Demon Seeker appeared at the right time and took Rhodes with him on the pretext of taking the witnesses away.
"We're going to do a little assessment of the state of this Mr. Rhodes." Facing the crowd of onlookers, the leader of the Demon Finder team showed a sunny smile, "If this gentleman has traces of magic on his body, it proves that our Mr. Jax may have done something." ”
Well, when he took Rhodes, he wisely ignored the question of "why didn't you just take Mr. Jax" - just kidding, framing an unrelated person and personally framing the martial arts instructor of Gavin IV, between which the pig also knows how to choose!
……………………
Faced with the "protection" of the demon seekers surrounding him in the center, Rhodes looked quite calm - as if he was really just a witness who had no idea about the matter.
Obediently following in the footsteps of the Demon Seeker, Rhodes arrived at the Demon Finder's law enforcement point and was tested for the Demon Search.
The Magic Detection Test is a special test unique to Demacia, and the process of testing is very simple, the tester only needs to put the magic test stick on the shoulder of the test subject.
The magic stick is a plain-looking, less than ten centimeters long short stick - this short stick is made of forbidden magic stones, holy silver and other special materials, any guy with the power of runes (or the guy who can make the power of runes out) after touching it, this short stick will change color, and people who come into contact with spells, after touching the magic stick, will also cause the short stick to change color.
In a sense, this magic measuring stick is a test strip for the power of runes.
In a show of fairness and impartiality, the test was conducted in plain sight - of course, in order for Rhodes to reveal the traces of magic as they wished, this time the Demon Seekers used a special short stick.
As a tool for detecting mages, the magic measuring stick also has different specifications, and the higher the content of holy silver, the more sensitive this short stick will be - even if the short stick with a very high content of holy silver only encounters a little rune power, it will quickly change color.
And when he was just "protecting" Rod, the team leader had already left his rune mark on Rod's body, and the power of his rune seemed to be related to the wind, and the rune mark was very secretive.
As long as the baton changes color, the Demon Seeker can use "this matter involves a mage" as an excuse to go underground and avoid the public eye - it is a tradition that even the gossiest people in Demacia do not inquire about things involving mages.
Even better, the stick is a precious disposable, and even if it turns out to be a mistake in detection, it is "an unintentional misunderstanding" for which no one is responsible.
Perfect for framing props!
However, when the leader of the Demon Finder team took out the marked bat and placed it on Rod's shoulder, the rapid discoloration he expected did not happen......
As a rune annihilator, the best place to store this short stick in Rod's arms was to have no rune energy fluctuations, and even suffered from the rejection of rune power.
In this case, the short stick will naturally not have any reaction.
As a result, the leader of the demon searcher team was dumbfounded.
Rod was also dumbfounded.
The former is because I didn't expect this "foolproof" framing method to be invalid; And the latter didn't expect that because of the physique of the rune annihilator, he would destroy the rune mark left by the team leader, so that the frame that he could send to the forbidden demon prison this time was completely ruined.
The onlookers of Demacia looked at the magic measuring stick that did not change in color, and quickly burst into cheers.
At the urging of the populace, the hapless aristocratic side-by-side and his mother were soon taken away by the law enforcers – who were faced with accusations of false accusations and insults to their reputations.
