Chapter 201 The Problem of Void Symbiosis
Caitlin is still busy with many cases and has no time to accompany Li Lin and Kasha to Piltover University.
Li Lin put on the power armor and took Kai'Sa to the academy near Stellar Avenue.
Today, in addition to studying the void skin problem on Kai'Sa, he has other plans.
Smart chip Li Lin's technology tree has been highlighted.
In the past six months, he didn't know if Heimerdinger had developed an alternative smart chip.
In addition, he is also planning to use the cutting-edge equipment in the college laboratory to study how to install a propulsion device for power armor.
There is a design drawing, Li Lin had already drawn it when he was in the Shurima Desert.
But a theory is just a theory after all, not to mention that this technology was derived by him by referring to Iron Man's Mark armor. It is not certain whether it will succeed in reality.
Even if it couldn't be done for the time being, he wouldn't be disappointed, it just would take a little longer.
[Skill Panel] There is "Ion Thruster" technology in the combat category, but it requires him to reach level 45, and he must first unlock the "Particle Control" theory in the inventor category.
Li Lin is currently at level 39. If he can find all the unmanufactured, high-quality devices that can give skill points, he expects that he should be able to reach level 42-43.
There is no way to upgrade through combat when staying in the Twin Cities.
If you really get stuck at this point, you will either have to continue to come up with new designs, or you will have to wait until next year to go to Demacia and help Prince Jarvan escape the pursuit of Noxus to unlock the "flying" technology.
Accompanied by strange and curious looks from passers-by along the way, Li Lin and Kasha quickly arrived at the academy.
Heimerdinger is a technical geek. In addition to holding parliamentary meetings on weekdays, Heimerdinger stays in school almost all the time, never leaving.
Li Lin learned last night that Mrs. Karina was planning to hold a parliamentary meeting this weekend, so Heimerdinger must be at school today, but it was just a matter of where.
Fortunately, a student he stopped casually saw that Heimerdinger had just gone to the laboratory, which saved him some time.
When they arrived at the entrance of the laboratory, since the previous pass had been withdrawn, they could only ask the staff to notify Heimerdinger.
Li Lin and Kasha waited in the waiting room for a few minutes. There was a soft knock on the door. Before he saw anyone coming in, the familiar sharp voice penetrated into the room.
"Oh ho ho~ Look who is back?"
Immediately after the sound, a yordle who was less than half the height of the door and covered with furry yellow hair walked in.
Behind him, there was a young man with middle-parted hair, a very thin body, a bad look, and a cane in his hand.
"May the gears turn in the right direction, Professor Heimerdinger, Victor." Li Lin immediately stood up, unfolded his mask and greeted them.
Heimerdinger waved his hand, "Hey, you don't need to be so polite with me."
"You are finally back, Li Lin." Victor responded with a smile.
Li Lin smiled and stepped forward to shake Heimerdinger's hand, and then hugged Victor.
Kasha didn't understand what they were talking about, so she just stood up from the chair, her two small hands covered with scales tangled together in front of her.
Heimerdinger and Victor both noticed that this little girl was obviously not Shurima and had a strange purple armor on her body.
Victor glanced past Li Lin and looked at Kasha, and couldn't help but ask: "Who is this?"
Heimerdinger's brows furrowed deeply, he blew the beard at the corner of his mouth, and a trace of doubt and seriousness flashed in his eyes, "This color, and the aura of energy...could it be void?!"
"Void? It looks very familiar. Which book should I have seen...what is that?"
Victor raised his eyebrows, it was rare that there was something he didn't know.
Li Lin was also surprised by this, "You... also know about void?"
"How could I not know about this kind of thing?" Heimerdinger blew his beard and his voice became deeper. "Thousands of years ago, when I visited the former Shurima Empire as a scholar in Bandle City, the Void War was still there. It’s not over yet!”
Speaking of this, Victor finally remembered that the main reason for the decline of the Peak Shurima Empire was the void.
However, a new question emerged in his mind.
"...Huh?" Victor scratched his cheek, his tone a little uncertain: "But didn't you say before that you are only over two hundred years old?"
"Oh~~ You are talking about this." Heimerdinger raised his head and glanced at him, "Actually, it is calculated based on the years of Bandle City. Converted to your human years, I should have several thousand... uh, years It’s too long, let me think about it carefully.”
As he spoke, Heimerdinger took out a small notebook and a hard-shell pen from his arms.
"Ahem, professor, let me introduce her situation to you first."
Li Lin turned around and waved to Kasha, asking her to come to him. He first introduced the two of them to her:
"This is Professor Heimerdinger, and this is my friend Victor. He is an outstanding scientist. They can help you solve this skin problem."
"May, may the gears turn in the right direction..." She greeted them in a not-so-standard Piltover greeting.
"Please forgive me, Kasha is new here and doesn't understand Piltover very well."
Li Lin's eyes returned to Heimerdinger, who had stopped moving, and to Viktor, and introduced them: "Her name is Kaisha, and her hometown is the Singing Valley in the southeast of Shurima continent."
"Singing Valley? I once heard one of my... er, a student, talk about it."
There was a flash of regret in Heimerdinger's eyes.
"He said that there are radioactive minerals there that can provide extremely large amounts of energy, even far beyond the energy crystals you have invented now."
"New energy?" Upon hearing this, Victor's eyes lit up.
"This does exist." Li Lin nodded, "And the energy released by this mineral is very different from energy crystals. It is physical in nature and does not contain any magic."
"What! Not relying on magic?" Victor looked even more excited, "Does this kind of energy still exist in this world?"
"Calm down, Victor." Professor Heimerdinger stroked his beard a few times and chuckled: "Even the scientists in Bandle City who have lived for thousands of years have not fully explored the nature of this world. There are still many things we have not yet discovered. It’s not uncommon to find things you don’t understand.”
"You mean it, Professor Heimerdinger."
Victor humbly accepted Heimerdinger's teachings and quickly calmed down his excitement.
After a pause for two seconds, he asked again: "You said this little girl is from the Song Yin Valley, so you should have visited that place, right?"
"I've been there before, but..."
Upon hearing this turn of events, both Victor and Heimerdinger's hearts sank.
"That place was swallowed by the void three years ago." Li Lin shook his head and sighed, "Most of the radioactive minerals were eaten up by it."
Viktor and Heimerdinger fell silent at the same time.
"However, the Ascended Ones from Shurima came over at that time and completely solved the void problem there. There are still some radioactive minerals left, and Mrs. Karina has already started arranging manpower to dig them out."
"..."
Good guy, can't you finish your sentence in one breath?
Victor and Heimerdinger breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and their hearts that had just hit rock bottom rose again.
Li Lin's words aroused their interest. They were about void, god warriors, and energy minerals.
Victor knew that Li Lin came to them today to solve Kaisha's problem, so he suppressed the doubts in his heart for the time being.
Having been with Heimerdinger for a long time, he also knew that the professor never asked questions other than science. It was very likely that his attention was all on radioactive minerals, and even Kasha had ignored it.
Therefore, Victor got the chance to get the topic back on track before Heimerdinger: "By the way, you said that the Songling Valley was swallowed up by the void, and that's where Kaisha's home is. The professor just said that the aura of the armor on her body is very... Like void..."
After connecting all the information together, his pupils shrank slightly, "Then could her armor be a product of the void?"
"Yes, this is also the most important reason why I came to see you today."
Li Lin nodded seriously.
"Kasha... now has a symbiotic relationship with this void skin, and I want to help her solve this problem."
