Chapter 21 Run! (Keep reading! Really important!)

In the uppermost cabin of the Hex pressurized transport plane, Jess, who had been silent all the way, couldn't help asking, "Do you really want to recruit that child as a student worker?"

Li Lin met his eyes, raised his eyebrows, "Do you think I'm joking?"

"But...why?"

"You will know in the future, but you won't understand even if I tell you now."

"Joke, is there something I don't understand?!" Jess widened his eyes, "I found out why you always like to talk in half?"

"Instead of worrying about this, you might as well save your energy and wait to study the Hex crystal tonight."

Li Lin forcibly changed the subject.

"Uh... okay, speaking of this, you said this afternoon that you can stabilize the Hex crystal, what is the principle behind it?"

That's of course... the principle of the "system panel".

Li Lin turned his face away, based on the knowledge in his mind, thought for a while, and gave a rough explanation:

"The hex crystal is unstable, and at first I thought of using a resonance device to reduce its vibrations, but that didn't work.

"Later, I had an idea. Since reducing the resonance frequency is not enough, why not..."

"Increase the energy!" Jess' eyes suddenly lit up, "Try to stabilize the crystal in a high-frequency environment!"

Good guy, I have learned to answer quickly.

Li Lin nodded, affirming his statement, "I tried it with crystal shards, and it's totally feasible."

"Damn it! Why didn't I think of it..."

Finally figuring out what was wrong with him, Jess clenched his right hand and hammered the palm of his left hand.

"You are such a genius, Li Lin!"

I can't become a genius even with golden fingers, so I, a time traveler, can't be fooled...

Li Lin smiled helplessly, and looked out of the window.

The elevator generally stays in a large area for about 10 minutes, while in a small area it only stays for two to three minutes.

It was almost time now, and he could hear the sound of the iron hatch on the bottom floor closing.

Not long after, the administrator's rough and hoarse voice came from the Sana speaker: "The elevator is going up! The station ahead is the frontier market, the Academy of Thaumaturgy and Magic, and the Plant Cultivation Center."

With the screeching, "buzzing" roaring noise, the three thick vertical rails supported its fat body to rise slowly, and the exhaust holes at the top spewed out circle after circle of steam.

About 20 minutes later, Screaming emerged from the dark tunnel, slowly slowed down and finally stopped at the Airdrop Street in Piltover.

Li Lin and Jess followed the few other passengers out of the hatch.

Immediately afterwards, more migrant workers who were waiting outside the diamond-shaped iron fence to take the elevator home poured in one after another.

The two walked on the winding cobblestone path.

Before walking a few steps, Li Lin suddenly turned his head and looked behind.

But only a group of noisy citizens came into view.

"what happened?"

Jess noticed Li Lin's abnormality, and also followed his gaze and turned his head to look.

Everything looks fine.

"It's nothing, I must have read it wrong." Li Lin shook his head, "It's getting late, let's go back quickly."

Meanwhile, behind a wall on a street corner.

"Look, I just said don't bring a bang bang, they almost found out." The skinny Mylo complained to Wei.

"I'm so far away from him, and I'm still hiding in the crowd, why do you think he almost found me?" Baobo retorted not to be outdone.

"Because of your conspicuous blue hair! It's easy to see you even if you sneak into the crowd..."

"But he doesn't know me! What if he sees me?"

Bobo and Milo became more and more violent.

"Okay, okay, you all don't say a few words, and Melo, this is really not the fault of Bobo."

Wei pointed to the two figures that were about to disappear into the crowd in the distance, "We still have a mission, so don't lose track of us."

"Forget it, it's still important to get down to business, I won't be as knowledgeable as you."

"Huh!" Bao Baojiao snorted, turning her face away and ignoring Milo.

After resolving the small conflicts among the members of his own team, Wei continued to lead the three of them to avoid the law enforcement officer, and Dongdong XZ secretly followed behind Li Lin and Jess.

Finally, they came to the top of the Grand Canyon in Piltover.

From here, the whole city seemed to have a gap, and the Grand Canyon, which was covered by the haze and could not see the bottom clearly, divided the whole city into two parts, the north and the south.

The four of them ran to the edge of the bridge, looked down, and couldn't help but gasp.

The high tower of the Institute of Technology and Magic built in Zaun protruded its head from the thick gray haze, and the thick rope used to fix it at the top was fixed to the upper part of the canyon, swaying with the howling sea wind.

This is a unique scene that is completely unseen in Zaun.

Since the law enforcement officers on the bridge had noticed them, they didn't dare to stay on the bridge too much and quickly came to the north.

In a small alley where almost no one passed by, Wei, Baobao and Melo quickly climbed up to the roof along the drainage pipes and metal frames.

And Clegg acted as a support on the ground, helping them point out the direction on the roof.

Wei squatted on the edge of the eaves, looking down at the crowded street below, "Melo, do you see where Craig is?"

"Let me take a look..."

"There!" Bang Bang's excited shout attracted the attention of the two, "The end of this street."

"It's very good, let's go over quickly."

Before Wei could finish his sentence, he jumped forward and easily landed on the opposite roof.

Poppy and Melo followed closely behind her.

Three thin figures shuttled in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Not long after, they joined Craig who had just climbed onto the roof from the other side.

"Why did you come up here? Where are they?" Milo asked hastily, "Could you be lost?"

Clegg gave him a helpless look, "How could it be lost? They've already arrived home."

As he spoke, Clegg pointed to a very luxuriously decorated house at the end of the road, "They entered that house."

"Sure enough, as I expected, to be able to live in such a house, you must be extremely rich!" Wei pursed her lips, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

She pointed to the top floor of the mansion, "There, let's go in from the balcony."

"Wei, are you sure you want to do this? There are many law enforcement officers outside this family's house..." Clegg still hesitated.

"We've come here and you still want to retreat?" Wei glared at him, "Anyway, I'm going, are you going to follow me or not?"

Craig and Melo looked at each other.

Seeing Milo raised his eyebrows and looked indifferent, he sighed, "Okay, okay, but we have to move quickly."

A satisfied smile appeared on Wei's face, "Naturally, we have to go back before the sun sets completely, otherwise we will be in a hurry if Van der can't find us."

The four spent a lot of effort, climbing along the eaves on the top edge of the mansion, and finally jumped to the balcony on the top floor.

"The lights are not turned on in the house, no one is inside, come quickly."

Vi tried to twist the handle of the balcony door.

The bronze grille and glass door was unlocked and opened easily.

The first thing that attracted the attention of the four people in the room was a metal arm made entirely of mechanical parts placed on a shelf.

"Wow! I know this!"

Pang Pang trotted to the side of the metal arm, stretched out his hand to stroke it lightly, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"It's the same as the ones installed on those people in Dicheng. It's called... By the way, it's called an enhanced prosthetic body, that's right! This one is very valuable!"

"Uh, I think we should stop thinking about it. Such a big thing is not light at first glance, so we can't take it away."

Milo scratched his head, opened the drawer closest to him, and was shocked, "Hey! Guys, look at this!"

"pistol?!"

Wei and Clegg also changed their complexions, but Baobo looked very excited.

"Show me quickly!"

"This is a real thing! It's not for you, a kid."

Melo raised his pistol high above his head, not intending to blow up his "trophy".

"Hey, I've grown up! Besides, just looking at it, why are you so stingy..."

"Shh! Don't make noise in this place!" Wei gave them an angry look, "Forget about the pistol, hurry up and find something valuable, the owner of the house can..."

Before she finished speaking, a sound of mechanical gears rotating and colliding came from the door.

Although the voice was small, it sounded like a stormy sea to their ears.

The four of them stopped what they were doing in an instant, and turned their gazes in unison to the direction of the source of the sound.

It was the sound of a key unlocking the lock.

Wei's mind went blank for a second or two.

Then, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, "Run!"

 I beg my family members, follow-up reading is really important, try to push all to see follow-up reading (*)
