Chapter 191 Plan

The Pier Tavern in Naschramé.

Li Lin, Jace, Kassadin, Kai'Sa, Sivir, and a group of Gila Mann and dozens of craftsmen from other families packed the place and prepared to celebrate together.

The Hex Flying Gate of Nashilamei had already been completed under the leadership of Jess, which saved Li Lin a lot of trouble, but he still felt a little ashamed in his heart.

After all, he had promised Jace to help before, but the trip to the desert took longer than he expected. In the end, Jace was left to do everything alone.

But this journey not only rescued Ka'Sa and reunited her with her father Kassadin, but also solved the void problem between Song Valley and Calixai.

Most importantly, Li Link's "career advancement" that had been stuck for a long time was finally completed.

In the past few months, with the leadership of Lady Karina and the Gila Mann family in Piltover, and the help of Hilko and Fandel in Zaun, electricity has been able to connect to most households.

Once he returned to Piltover, Li Lin could immediately put the new technologies he had learned into use and continue to improve and upgrade Piltover's basic technology and build infrastructure.

One year has passed since the five-year agreement with the councilors, and Zaun's transformation process is much faster than he expected.

After advancing from "Mechanic" to "Mechanical Heart", with "intelligent AI" and "intelligent chip" technology, even the most basic productivity can be solved.

The robot manufacturing systems in Piltover and Zaun are very sound.

At that time, as long as they are equipped with smart chips, some dangerous tasks will no longer need to be done manually, and Zaun's project construction speed will be greatly accelerated.

After drinking a few glasses of cold beer, Li Lin felt that his thoughts were becoming clearer.

He had just finished telling everyone about a short and thrilling desert journey.

While Sivir took advantage of the conversation, he continued to tell the curious craftsmen something that only the people of the desert knew.

Li Lin excused himself to use the restroom, walked out of the tavern and came to a quieter area of ​​the pier. Breathing in the refreshing sea breeze at night, he began to think about his future plans.

First of all, the arsenal that Hilco was commissioned to build still needs to be renovated, and all the equipment inside should be changed to intelligent control, which does not require manual labor at all.

It is essential to be on guard against others, and Li Lin does not trust Hilko as much as he does Fandel.

Fandel no longer has any "enterprising spirit" and just wants to manage his own one-third of an acre of land, but Hilko still has considerable ambitions.

Although he said verbally that he only sought the respect of Piltover so that Zaun would no longer be oppressed, he did not have a deep hatred for Piltover like Lenata did and planned to completely overthrow Piltover.

But Hilko is a hero and an excellent "commander". He will not tell others his innermost thoughts.

Perhaps, his ultimate goal is to take complete control of the Twin Cities.

Li Lin was not prepared to let him know about the various dangerous technologies and weapons he would create in the future.

Coupled with the vicious competition between the major families in Piltover and the alchemy barons of Zaun, spies from rival families were sunk into the Piltover Canal almost every day.

This kind of arsenal that explodes troops and develops armaments cannot allow outsiders to participate.

If Gray Lady gets wind of it, this plan will be ruined.

Of course, Li Lin only planned to mass-produce storm robots and some precision materials in Zaun's black arsenal, so it didn't matter even if he was discovered.

He mainly wanted to use this to explore a suitable development route for heavy industry, and then build a secret underground research and production facility on the outskirts of Piltover.

By studying the original crystal, the blueprints for the Hex core, nuclear fusion energy, and weapon manufacturing for the "combat" route are all on the agenda.

There is still some time before the next big event known to Li Lin, which is enough time for him to develop a sizable mechanical army.

Coupled with the teleportation technology of Hex Flying Gate, he no longer needs to use blue essence to buy the storm robot from the [Essence Store], which is a low-end method.

At that time, Li Lin only needs to wave his hand to summon the mechanical army in minutes.

At least punching the Noxian warband and kicking the ordinary army of Demacia is not a problem at all.

When they have sufficient armaments and strength, and can even crush the Parliament without fearing the Gray Lady, it will be time for Li Lin to lead the Twin Cities and expand outward.

After all, Demacia's Mage Rebellion, Bilgewater's Tide of Fire, Shadow Island's Curse of Ruin, and the return of Mordekaiser's underworld legion in Noxus are all inferior to the final Void Invasion.

Explosive troops are a must, and the research on the void must not fall behind...

In addition, Li Lin is also planning to go back and study how to summon Janna, the goddess of wind.

If we can reach an agreement with her and exchange the people's faith for continuous wind energy, it will be a win-win situation.

Although a wind elf like Janna who believes in becoming a god is no match for a native demigod like Volibear in the Freljord who is the embodiment of the storm entity, at least she will become more powerful if she has faith.

When major events that affect the world come in the future, as a god, she can at least provide considerable assistance.

While Li Lin was sitting on the wooden pier of the pier, looking at the sea and meditating, Jess's voice suddenly sounded not far behind him: "Li Lin, I finally found you."

The slightly fishy sea breeze couldn't remove the smell of alcohol from Jace's body.

Just now, he and Sivir lost a lot of money playing Shurima's unique wine table entertainment game, and almost fell under the table drunk.

"I'm thinking about something." Li Lin looked back at Jace and shook his head helplessly, "Your drinking capacity is obviously not that good, why do you keep showing off?"

"Hiccup - who, who said that..." Jace let out a long wine burp.

The cooler sea breeze at night penetrated his clothes, causing him to shiver and sober up a bit.

Jace staggered to Li Lin's side and sat down on another wooden pier.

"Don't fall into the sea." Looking at his appearance, Li Lin couldn't help laughing.

"I, I'm not drunk..."

"Drunk people will always say they are not drunk."

As Jace's breathing quickened and his body swayed a few more times, he was obviously a little anxious.

Li Lin didn't intend to tease him anymore and continued to look at the silver crescent moon hanging in the sky of bright stars.

"Have you ever thought about your family after being out for so long?"

"Of course... Hiccup, my mother and Mel have not seen each other for almost half a year, I must think so."

A rare smile appeared on Jace's face.

He has always been impatient in front of his peers and even his elders.

Of course, this "peers" does not include Mel, Caitlin, and Li Lin and Victor, who are equally as talented as themselves.

"What about you? You won't blame me, right?"

"Ah? Which aspect are you referring to?"

"Of course it's Caitlin... Hiccup, not long after you established our relationship, I brought you to Shurima..."

Complain?

It’s not too late for me to thank you!

Without you, I would have no reason to come to Shurima with Kassadin, and I don’t know how long I will be stuck in career advancement.

Li Lin smiled and said, "I definitely don't care, but Kate will probably blame you because you didn't take me back as promised."

"Huh? This is your problem, not mine! Who told you to go to Dasai?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Jace's tone, "Besides, I just said I would return before Evolution Day. It's only October now, and there's still more than a month before Evolution Day. There's enough time."

"I think Kate won't listen to your excuse...it would be perfect for you to take the blame."

"Hey, you are too despicable!"

Although the Hex Flying Gate has been completed, it has not passed actual testing and cannot be put into use for the time being.

But next time they come to Nashrame, they can save half a month of sea journey.

As the night wore on, Li Lin chatted with Jess about what was happening in Bergün, and then decided on a date to leave.

Coincidentally, Gila Mann's desert expedition team recently sent back news that it is expected to arrive in Nashrame with a batch of mined primitive crystals in the next two days.

They planned to take a smooth sailing boat back to Piltover, which was also Li Lin's original idea.

After all, Li Lin didn't want to use the living core of the Shell people to research new crystal energy.

The miniature nuclear fusion reactor has insufficient materials and imperfect technology, so it cannot be applied to power armor for the time being.

A Hex Core made of Primordial Crystal is necessary.

In order to explain the origin of the original crystal purchased from the [Essence Store], Li Lin planned to start with the expedition team.

There was an "inexplicable" extra primitive crystal in the box. It could only be that the expedition team was not careful when planning to check the goods, and it would never be a suspicion on him.

As a popular master craftsman of the Gila Mann family, Li Lin wouldn't be too much to study it directly with a piece of primitive crystal.

After all, as the son-in-law recognized by Congressman Gila Mann, his status is quite high in the Gila Mann family.

Mrs. Karina will definitely agree to his request, let alone these working expedition members.

He noticed that Jace was already half asleep and half awake, teetering on the verge of falling into the sea.

Li Lin immediately grabbed Jace and forced him back to the hotel regardless of his mumbled words.

Thanks to Qianluoxi, Ye Chen and Ye Tiandi, for the stupid reward!
