Chapter 256 Are You a Believer of Janna?
Zu'an, at the junction of the lower city area of the middle-rise square and the ground-floor trench area.
Thick toxic haze billowed, and visibility was less than half a meter away.
A third of the breathing station collapsed due to the explosion. Thousands of people were crowded inside and under the eaves of the corridor outside. Most of them held a piece of oil-stained rag to block their mouths and noses, and even their eyes were closed. Dare to open.
Only a handful of people who arrived here first had Alchemy Technology respiratory filtering devices, and only the staff at the respiratory station had filtering masks that could cover their entire face.
They need this to repair the air filtration device in the breathing station.
This poisonous gas is far more harmful than the haze under Zaun's "grey warning". If you open your eyes, your eyes will probably be corroded and blinded by the highly toxic haze in just a few minutes.
In fact, the air filter in the breathing station is damaged, and people staying here is not helping.
However, due to the limited field of vision, even if you escape the lower city area of the mid-level square, the breathing stations in the middle city and upper city areas will definitely be overcrowded now.
Unless they go directly to the upper levels of Zaun or Piltover, they will be less affected.
The only people who can live here are poor people, who have no money to ride on the Hex pressure transporter.
There were loud coughs at the breathing station and wails of body burnt pain, and some even weak people had vomited blood.
Desperation is spreading.
But not long after, 20 units flew in after receiving instructions from the brain. Mechanical engineers carrying a large amount of low-light agents landed and quickly scanned and analyzed the data.
[The breathing station collapsed and needs repair. 】
[Currently, there are 296 seriously injured patients and 563 minor injured patients requiring emergency treatment. 】
[There are currently 198 bottles of shimmer medicine remaining, which can roughly treat 366 people after dilution. 】
[At present, 2,079 people with minor injuries and 985 people with serious injuries have been found at the incident site, and they are being transported here by other engineering teams. 】
[According to the Piltover Mechanical Engineer Corps, it will take 5 minutes and 36 seconds to arrive, and work is being allocated quickly...]
In just two or three seconds, the three mechanical engineers handed the satchels they carried to other robots around them, then flew to the place where the breathing station collapsed, and quickly repaired it using metal fragments scattered on the ground and other metal items on the roadside.
Another five mechanical engineers quickly unfolded the medical kits and used the low-light medicines carried by other engineers to continuously prepare potions and injections of different concentrations.
Another 12 engineers first used injections to inject those who were dying.
The staff in the breathing station were stunned when they saw these robots moving in an orderly and fast manner, and even stopped repairing the air filter.
Since a batch of seriously injured people were about to arrive soon, Li Lin had a very limited amount of shimmer medicine stored in the factory.
After careful consideration, Zhinao did not let the mechanical engineer distribute medicine to the slightly injured people for the time being. He only gave them quick treatment of the trauma to avoid being infected by the haze, or only used low light to help them when they were almost unable to hold on. Take a breath.
After all, in this environment, there is no breathing filter device, and the air filter of the breathing station has not been repaired, so the low light can only temporarily hang their lives.
Fortunately, it didn't take long, and Li Lin, who had made arrangements with Fandel, quickly arrived at the breathing station.
Looking at the wailing people here, Li Lin felt angry and worried.
He didn't dare to hesitate too much, and immediately flew over the heads of the crowd crowded in the breathing station to the innermost side.
When the staff saw a unique "machine" coming in front of them, they suddenly reacted, "You...you are!"
"I am Li Lin, a craftsman from the Gila Mann family. Leave the rest to me."
Li Lin pushed away several staff members who were blocking the air filtering device. His actions were a little rude, but none of them were angry, and they were even very happy.
This is the "Future Pioneer" who has become famous in the Twin Cities in recent months, Piltover's youngest and most outstanding craftsman.
With him here, they have no clue how to repair the air filter, so they don't need to worry about it.
But these staff members still have some concerns.
How should an outstanding craftsman who came to the city to study Hex technology repair this kind of alchemy technology equipment?
Under the worried eyes of everyone, Li Lin squatted down and first pulled the switch to activate the air filter in front of him.
No response.
Then, he asked his brain to scan the problems with the alchemy technology machine in front of him, and at the same time started "data-based thinking", and quickly discovered the problem.
At this time, the person in charge of the breathing station came forward and asked in a worried voice: "Mr. Li Lin... what tools do you need? We will find them for you right away."
"unnecessary."
Through the mask, Li Lin's mechanical voice reached the ears of several staff members.
Because there was a strong coughing sound at the scene, they thought they heard it wrong.
The person in charge hurriedly asked again: "You...what did you say?"
Li Lin shook his head and reached out to press the air filter in front of him.
The situation was critical, and he had no time to estimate the staff, so he added all 14 of his remaining skill points to "Mechanical Repair" to raise it to level 8.
Immediately, more than 1,000 points of his mana disappeared in an instant, and a light blue light instantly blocked the huge air filtration equipment that occupied nearly half of the breathing station.
Several staff members were stunned and had no idea what was happening.
There was only one old woman huddled in the corner of the hall, who felt the taste of rotten metal in her mouth. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is magic! This is magic! Is Janna, the Goddess of Wind, appearing?!"
Hearing the old woman's cry, several staff members' eyes widened under their masks, and they all gasped.
Since the material of the respirators was not good, their inhalation caused them to inhale a few traces of haze, and they bent over and coughed violently.
When they calmed down their breathing, they heard the rumbling sound of the machine. They looked up in surprise and found that the air filter in front of them had been repaired.
Not only that, it seemed to be running more smoothly than before, without the noise of metal friction they often heard.
Li Lin not only repaired the air filter device, but also used "mechanical hardcover" to upgrade it to artifact quality.
In this way, the entire breathing station can be completely freed from the threat of highly toxic haze in less than 10 minutes.
Under the orders of Li Lin, the newly arrived mechanical engineer from the street, they have begun to dismantle the scattered metal outside nearby houses, preparing to expand the breathing station to accommodate thousands of people, and accommodate all those outside.
"The air filter has been repaired..."
"This, this is really magic!"
"Mr. Li Lin, you are actually a spell caster?!"
"Mr. Li Lin is from Ionia...hiss, it's true when you think about it!"
Hearing the staff's exclamations, some people who were close to the air filter heard the roar of the machine and felt that their breathing was much smoother, and they suddenly became excited.
"It's not Janna, it's Lord Li Lin. Lord Li Lin saved us!"
"The one from the Gila Mann family?"
"Yes, future pioneer Li Lin..."
"I remember! Oswald Lunatic Asylum...he was the one who led the arrest of the evil Alchemist Baron!"
"The robot that just saved me was also his invention. He saved us!"
"He has been committed to building Zaun this year. He is our savior!"
"Li Lin! Li Lin! Li Lin!"
"..."
Gradually, the entire breathing station began to shout Li Lin's name.
There was an indescribable sourness in his heart.
Li Lin took a deep breath, asked the staff to assist the mechanical engineers to take care of these people, and immediately walked out of the breathing station.
The shimmer potion has been used up, there are still many seriously injured people present, and there are still more than two minutes before the Piltover engineer force arrives.
He sighed and took the time to make and sell artifact-quality devices. The blue essence he saved was exchanged for more than 500 bottles of "life potion" to help those with serious illness.
According to Zhinao's report, more than ten mechanical engineers were lost, the situation in the explosion area was temporarily stabilized, and the leaked alchemical venom was also cleaned up.
The haze will not deepen further, but...
Li Lin looked around and realized that with the current visibility of less than half a meter and the geographical problems of Zaun, it would take at least several months for the highly toxic haze to naturally dissipate to its original level.
The people of Zaun couldn't afford to wait, and their physical condition couldn't stand the wait.
He stood there and thought deeply for a moment, then returned his gaze to the hall of the breathing station, and used infrared thermal imaging to scan and locked onto the old woman who had just shouted "Jana appears".
Li Lin hesitated for a moment, then flew to the old woman, landed in the air, and asked softly: "I'm sorry to bother you...Excuse me, are you a believer of Janna?"
