After saying hello to the guard at the door, he walked into the empty hall with Li Lin.
At this time, Jarvan III was sitting on the throne in the center, with Jarvan IV, Barrett and Tiana standing in front of him, talking about something.
Hearing the footsteps coming from the gate, several people looked towards Li Lin and Zhao Xin at the same time.
"Hahaha, our two brave warriors are finally here!" Jarvan III's hearty and deep voice echoed throughout the Hall of Valor.
"Forgive me for being late, Your Majesty." Zhao Xin stepped forward and bowed to apologize.
He was supposed to be at Jarvan III's bedchamber by the time the king woke up.
"It's okay, it's okay! Haha, I didn't expect our hero to be so powerful!"
Jarvan III waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care.
He let Zhao Xin return to his back and looked at Li Lin with a smile, "I never thought you would break Zhao Xin's undefeated streak that lasted for over ten years!"
"You didn't even tell me you had such strength!"
Jarvan IV was very surprised by this and punched Li Lin lightly on the shoulder.
He always thought that Li Lin simply relied on the high-tech armor and his own strength was not that exaggerated. He believed that he could still defeat him if he fought alone.
But what he didn't expect was that his uncle Zhao Xin, who was known as "the best man in Demacia" in the army, was defeated by Li Lin.
Even Grand Marshal Tiana couldn't help but improve her evaluation of Li Lin.
"Our Chief Steward Zhao has always hoped that someone would defeat him," Barrett interrupted with a smile. "Well, you've finally fulfilled his wish."
"Actually, Manager Zhao's strength is still superior to mine," Li Lin said with a modest smile. "The reason I'm slightly better than Manager Zhao is actually because I drank a potion I developed that can permanently improve physical fitness. It's similar to the Freljord's Iron Potion."
"Iron Elixir?" Jarvan III's face showed surprise. "I saw that stuff a few years ago when I went north to fight against the barbarians in order to reclaim the battle flag that my mother and her maidens had personally sewn."
"Those barbarians became different people after drinking that stuff. They were able to return to their peak condition even when they were seriously injured. It's really amazing." Barrett echoed and added.
"Hmph, no matter what, they are just a bunch of unorganized barbarians." Tiana had a strong prejudice against the Freljord people, which could be heard from her tone.
"Well, that's true, but the fighting conditions were far from favorable for us. Furthermore, we were alone deep in the enemy territory and nearly failed to recapture our mother's flag."
Jarvan III recalled the scene and sighed with melancholy, "Thanks to Xin Zhao, otherwise I would have lost the most precious gift left by my mother."
"Your Majesty, I am simply taking on the responsibility of carrying the banner."
"But without you, the soldiers' morale would not have been restored and they would not have won that miraculous victory." Barrett also praised.
"By the way, Li Lin, you said that the potion you developed can permanently improve physical fitness...are there any side effects?" Jarvan IV became interested in this.
"Of course not, and people around me have also used it, and the effect is very good."
Li Lin quickly recounted the effects of his "gene enhancement potion" and "activity enhancer".
Jarvan IV's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at his father sitting on the throne, "Father!"
Tiana frowned, knowing what the prince was thinking, and immediately said, "This is absolutely not allowed!"
"But……"
"Well, we're all family, so there's no need to argue about this... I'm already bothered enough by those nobles on a daily basis."
The king held his forehead and sighed, then quickly waved his hand to stop any arguments that might arise. "Let's talk about this later."
Then, he refocused his attention on Li Lin, "Actually, I asked you to come here today because I have something else to discuss."
As his voice gradually fell, Jarvan III held his chin with his hand, frowned and thought for a moment, then sat up straight again.
"I wonder what you think of our Demacia's Forbidden Magic Codex?"
"this……"
Li Lin was surprised that the king would ask him this question directly.
Although not in front of many ministers and other members of the Shield Council, these people in front of him are also the pillars of Demacia.
Especially Tiana, who is beside Jarvan III and cannot tolerate any sand in her eyes.
Li Lin's gaze quickly passed over the faces of Jarvan IV, Xin Zhao, Barrett and Tiana.
But even the most immature Jarvan IV did not show any unnecessary expression on his face, which really made him feel quite embarrassed.
"Your Majesty is asking you a question." Tiana reminded.
Jarvan III waved his hand, urging her to calm down. "Give him some time to think. This question is not easy to answer."
Then he continued to say to Li Lin: "Don't worry, this is a private topic between us. Just express your true thoughts."
Li Lin hesitated for a moment, gathered his thoughts, and looked Jarvan III straight in the eye. He said calmly, "Actually, I think Demacia's Forbidden Magic Codex is biased."
After he said this, except for Tiana whose expression changed slightly, the expressions of the others remained unchanged, as if what he said was what they were thinking.
"What do you mean?" Jarvan III leaned forward with curiosity. "Why do you have such thoughts?"
"As far as I know, the ancestors of Demacia were devastated by the Rune War and were forced to migrate westward, eventually discovering this forbidden magic stone forest on the west side of the Valoran continent."
