Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

Several combined blue lights flashed on the sofa in the corner of the room, shining like a small desk lamp equipped with a Hextech battery.

This voice...

Li Lin's heart trembled.

He hurriedly touched the switch of the chandelier in the room next to him, and the dim yellow alchemy light came on, completely revealing the uninvited guest.

That was a familiar figure.

Green Steel Shadow - Camille Fellowes.

Li Lin was a little lost, "Grey Lady..."

At this time, Camille was holding a kettle that had just been boiled and pouring water into a small teapot filled with tea leaves.

Under the illumination of the light, she slowly raised her face, which was as delicate as a piece of porcelain, and looked at Li Lin with her blue eyes.

Her expression was a little arrogant, and her pair of Hextech prosthetic eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything stayed on Li Lin's face for a moment, and then quickly withdrew them.

"I'm about to make tea. The quality of Gelaman's tea is pretty good." She said with a faint arc at the corner of her mouth.

A dense layer of sweat broke out on Li Lin's forehead and back.

He pretended to be calm and touched the door handle behind him.

If the odds were stacked against him, he could quickly pick the lock and open the door and run to the side house's workshop.

The weight and size of the power armor are somewhat bulky and not suitable for storage in a top-floor workshop.

Therefore, Li Lin specially applied to Mrs. Karina for an independent workshop to study power mechas there, and usually stores them there.

As for the Hex Energy Crystal, he carries it with him and puts it in the safe when he goes to bed at night.

But now, Li Lin regrets his original decision - he shouldn't have parked the power armor so far away from him.

His usual comfort gave him the illusion that the Gila Mann home was absolutely safe.

However, the fact is that the fact that Wei and Baobao sneaked into his room to steal things is enough to prove that the security here does need to be improved.

Because he was familiar with Wei and Bangbao, he did not consider safety issues in depth at the time.

In addition, Li Lin believed that his research on Hextech crystals was conducted in secret and had not been made public for the time being. The Philos family would not find out and then sent Camille to erase him.

But he forgot that tonight's C was killed by Camille, and she most likely saw her own power armor and Jace's hammer that obviously used "Hex Crystal" as its energy core.

In other words, it would be strange if she didn't come to visit...

How careless!

Li Lin secretly cursed himself for his stupidity, and at the same time pretended to ask nonchalantly: "I wonder what you want to do with me, a nobody like me?"

Camille had a faint smile on her face, "Relax, kid."

She slowly poured the tea from the teapot into the two exquisite ceramic teacups on the table.

As a wisp of water vapor floated into the air, a light and elegant fragrance of tea quickly filled the entire room.

"There's always time for a cup of tea before we get down to business."

Camille picked up the tea cup gracefully, took a sip to her lips, and waved for Li Lin to sit here.

Li Lin's throat squirmed, and a large amount of cold sweat rolled down his temples and gathered on his chin.

In almost a month since traveling, this was the first time he encountered a situation that made him so unprepared and helpless.

And that was after he invented power armor...

Not to mention Tony Stark's later nano-armor, as long as he has the level of portable power armor he built in the early stage, he will not feel so powerless when facing the Qinggang Shadow.

My growth progress is indeed a bit slow.

Li Lin secretly made up his mind to focus on inventing new items and quickly improve his level.

Under Camille's scrutinizing eyes, Li Lin swallowed and sat down on the sofa opposite her.

"Wise choice."

Camille smiled slightly and pushed the second porcelain cup filled with tea in front of Li Lin.

"Let's have a cup of tea. I think my tea-making skills are quite good."

Li Lin picked up the tea with some trembling, blew the hot air a few times, and then took a slow sip.

No matter how skilled Camille was at making tea, he still couldn't taste any of it when he felt like his life was hanging on the edge of a knife.

"I wonder what you want to see me for tonight?" Li Lin put down the tea and asked again tentatively.

Camille stared down at her tea cup, "I want to know, did you invent that power armor?"

It turns out to be this!

Li Lin calculated his chances of escaping from her, and nodded in response, "It is indeed my invention. I originally wanted to use it..."

"I'm not asking you anything else, you just need to answer my questions." Camille interrupted him directly.

"Uh..." Li Lin choked for a moment and was about to close his mouth and wait to answer whatever Camille asked.

Can this be called cowardice?

This is called strategic thinking!

Seeing that he was so obedient, Camille felt that she had saved a lot of effort, "What is its power source?"

"this……"

Li Lin hesitated for two seconds.

"If I guess correctly, it should be the Hex Crystal."

Camille drank the tea from the porcelain cup, then picked up the teapot and poured another cup into it.

"But an ordinary Hex Crystal wouldn't be that stable, otherwise the Tallis kid would have put his hammer into practice long ago."

She glanced at Li Lin, who was restless, and there was no emotion on her face. "You have been studying the Hex Crystal for so long. The energy core of this power armor is the result of your research, right?"

Li Lin's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly took a breath of air, "You..."

"What you want to say is: I still know this, right?"

Camille put down the porcelain cup and leaned lightly on the back of the sofa. Two metal hands that looked like a pair of brown gloves were crossed on her lower abdomen. The blade of her right leg was tilted on her left leg. She looked like a standard and elegant upper class person. Noble sitting posture.

"You have to be clear about one thing, kid. This is Piltover, and the Philos family is the real controller of this city. Those councilors are just puppets we introduced."

She spoke in a calm tone, as if nothing could make her anxious.

"In Piltover, nothing is hidden from the eyes and ears of the Philos family... In other words, I know almost everything in this city."

Li Lin continued to remain silent, but now his heart was in a mess.

The story description in the background alone is misleading.

Camille is much more powerful than he expected...

Now that she knew everything, it was useless to pretend to be stupid or dumbfounded.

It's better to confess directly, maybe it can increase Camille's favor.

Li Lin took a deep breath and then slowly spoke:

"That's right, I improved it on the basis of the Hex Technology Crystal and transformed it into a crystal that is more stable and more efficient in energy supply. I named it Hex Energy Crystal."

Camille raised her eyebrows, with a hint of surprise on her face, "Oh~~? Is it the crystal in your pocket?"

She glanced at Li Lin's pocket containing the energy crystal, and added: "My Hex core can resonate with the Hex crystal. The crystal in your pocket makes me feel different. .”

Facing Camille's gaze, Li Lin nodded with a stiff neck and took out a small, delicate metal box from his pocket.

After opening the lid, a round and unpretentious blue bead lies quietly inside.

"Yes, it is indeed completely stable, and the energy stored in it is much more than that of ordinary Hex crystals."

Camille picked up the crystal and looked at it for a long time.

"Hmm...but it seems to be more than that, right? My Hex core feels the flow of energy particles, and it seems to be able to recharge itself?"

To Li Lin's surprise, after looking at the crystal, Camille put it back into the box, seemingly with no intention of taking it away.

"It's really interesting." The curve of her lips became higher. "A 16-year-old boy has such achievements in the field of science... Are you interested in joining the Philos family?"

"Uh... this..." Li Lin looked a little embarrassed.

"It's just a joke." Camille chuckled, "I can see that you seem to be interested in Miss Caitlin of the Gila Mann family, so I won't force you to join us."

Li Lin smiled and did not refute.

While Camille was speaking, he seemed to see a flash of sadness in those blue eyes.

Is it an illusion...

He didn't have time to think about it, only to hear Camille's change of subject: "However, you can't produce this crystal alone, you must reach a cooperation with us."

"Eh?!" Li Lin made a surprised sound.

"Do you think I will kill you and take away the technology to make crystals?" Camille chuckled.

Li Lin nodded subconsciously.

"The Philos family has reached the pinnacle of power and wealth. Now, except for the wealth of the Myrdalda family, no other family in Piltover can threaten us."

Camille poured hot tea back into the slightly cooled porcelain cup, then picked it up and drank it in one gulp.

"And some of the people I killed threatened the stability of the upper and lower cities, and the other part were spies who stole scientific research technology and results from the Philos family.

“You developed the Hex Energy Crystal yourself, and you also developed a new type of generator.

"I have no reason to kill a talent who can create a new future and make Piltover even more prosperous."

Camille's words made Li Lin completely relax, "Your wisdom, madam."

"For your sake, the Gila Mann family is qualified to cooperate with us like the Myrdalda family to produce this new type of Hex crystal... However, we need 90% of the profit."

She held out a finger and said, "Your profit sharing is the same as that of the Myrdalda family. We will not be biased in this regard. You can wait for Councilor Gila Mann to talk to her after she wakes up."

10% profit share...

If Mrs. Karina learns of your quotation now, she will probably wake up from her slumber and find a place where no one is around to scold the Philos family for their evil intentions.

Noticing that Li Lin's expression was a little tangled, Camille smiled and said: "If you feel embarrassed, I can personally talk to Councilor Gila Mann..."

"No, no, no, I won't bother you with this." Li Lin quickly shook his head and declined.

"Another step on the road to evolution."

Camille stood up gracefully and walked slowly to the window of the small living room.

Then, she opened the window, raised one of her bladed legs to rest on the window sill, and the hook locks in the grooves with flashing blue light on both sides of her hips were ready.

Before Camille left, she looked back at Li Lin and said, "I'm looking forward to your future masterpieces, child."

I don’t know why some people feel aggrieved. Maybe they didn’t read it carefully. Hex Crystal is a monopoly of the Philos family, and the entire Piltover City relies heavily on Hex Crystal. Needless to say, this profit? This chapter has made it very clear that the Myrdalda family, the first family in Piltover, will get 10% of the profits from cooperation with the Philos family. The Gilaman family is currently far inferior to these two families, and they can only get 10% of the profits. main character. Moreover, most people who study the Hex Crystal will be killed, but Camille takes a fancy to the protagonist's talent and actively seeks cooperation. Can this be called frustration? It's just that the protagonist has only traveled a month, and he doesn't have the strength now. Plus, he knows Camille well, so he's afraid. If someone were to take the role, would you dare to fight Camille? Not to mention the protagonist getting slapped in the face later? I don’t understand some people’s thinking. Since I don’t understand the setting, just treat it as original. I basically wrote it very clearly. Most of the plots are based on original writing. If you feel aggrieved after reading this, it proves that you are not suitable for this book. Just leave silently. Those who want to teach me how to write articles still have a harsh tone, haha...
