The Glory of Noxus

Jodel College of Science and Progress is Piltover's most prestigious university.

In the eyes of most people, this college can also be called the University of Piltover.

The dean of the college is Piltover's respected inventor——

Professor Heimerdinger!

Huo Jixing stood in front of the college gate and looked at the tall buildings stretching out in front of him.

The college's architectural style is unique, incorporating smooth marble and embedded clear glass.

The gold and silver textures are interlaced with the pointed dome, shining in the sun.

Looking from a distance, it looks very much like the modern style of the previous life, focusing on the smoothness of lines and the superposition of light and shadow.

At the entrance of the academy, a line of Piltover guards in blue uniforms stood upright, the Hextech firearms in their hands shining with metallic luster.

Not far away, there is a sentry post, which contrasts with the style of the college building complex.

Inside the guard post, a Piltover law enforcement officer was observing the surroundings attentively, while his police team was neatly lined up aside, waiting for orders at any time.

Huo Jixing withdrew his gaze, walked towards the academy, and showed his invitation letter to the Pi City guards.

He had good senses about Professor Heimerdinger and gave up the idea of ​​sneaking in.

Moreover, the strange transformation of Snow White Poro may even cause trouble to Professor Heimerdinger.

After receiving the invitation, the Pi City guard looked at Huo Jixing carefully.

Then he saw the signature on the invitation letter, his expression paused, and he immediately reported the information through the sound transmission tube inside the door.

After waiting for a while.

Huo Jixing saw Professor Heimerdinger with an afro from afar, walking over quickly, with a tall Poro at his feet.

Compared with the meeting between Huo Jixing and Professor Heimerdinger.

The snow-white Poro lying on his shoulder quickly jumped down and faced the tall Poro running towards him.

The two little guys rubbed each other, making cheerful sounds, and they were visibly happy.

"Come with me."

Professor Heimerdinger shook his head helplessly and walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Huo Jixing followed and walked along the bluestone avenue.

Behind the scenes, two poros were playing together, sharing each other's favorite food.

The environment inside the college is relatively quiet and peaceful, surrounded by green plants and trees, adding a bit of vitality and vitality to this academic palace.

From time to time, you can also meet some inventors who are studying.

They gather together in small groups to discuss their own academic issues, with a youthful atmosphere that is enviable.

Upon meeting Professor Heimerdinger, they would greet him respectfully and show respect to him.

At the same time, they would look at Huo Jixing curiously, amazed at this handsome young man who had Professor Heimerdinger as his companion.

Along the way, Huo Jixing saw with his own eyes Professor Heimerdinger's influence on this college.

"Almost there," said Professor Heimerdinger.

The content of the invitation letter stated that Huo Jixing was to be taken to visit the college's Hex Technology Core Laboratory.

But he knew that Professor Heimerdinger must have something to talk about.

As soon as I turned into a small road, there was a loud noise on Qingshi Avenue.

Huo Jixing looked around and saw a strange-looking car.

tram?

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

The wheels of the rapidly moving vehicle pressed against the flat road, making a rhythmic sound.

The exterior design of this car is indeed very unique.

At least Huo Jixing thinks so.

The body is oval in shape, with smooth lines and a sense of technology.

The top of the car seemed to be a highly efficient power generation device, with tiny currents constantly emanating slightly in the air, shining with a silver-blue light.

At the very front of the car body is an exquisite gun barrel with golden lines engraved on the surface.

The metal chassis of the body is like a complex matrix of Hex technology.

Precision parts surround the Hex stabilizer and are tightly integrated.

Ensure that the vehicle remains stable and safe at high speeds and in complex terrain.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way quickly!"

An exclamation came, signaling Huo Jixing to leave the driving range of the vehicle.

But the metal tram seemed to be out of control, rushing straight towards Huojixing, energy fluctuations emerging from the dark muzzle.

Huo Jixing was about to take action, but he suddenly stopped when he saw something.

Bang!

The cannon roared, and confetti rushed out of the muzzle and fell in a flurry.

As he approached Huo Jixing, confetti flew to both sides of his body as if he encountered some resistance.

Seeing the tram open fire, two young men wearing glasses got off the train nervously, ran to Huo Jixing, and kept bowing and apologizing.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"What is this?" Professor Heimerdinger came back to his senses and asked with interest.

"Ah, Professor Heimerdinger."

When the two young men saw Professor Heimerdinger, they looked panicked and didn't know how to speak.

"This is... an electric float!"

The young man on the right looked at Huo Jixing and Professor Heimerdinger, pushed up the glasses on the tip of his nose, and answered quickly.

"It is a vehicle customized by Seraphine's fan group. It is prepared to be used during concerts to attract crowds to the square and enthusiastically watch the performances."

"Oh, relying on the sound of the cannon and the falling confetti is indeed a good idea."

Professor Heimerdinger stroked his beard, seeming thoughtful.

Hearing Seraphine's name, Huo Jixing thought of the intelligence information collected by the Reese Guard Secretariat.

During the last Evolution Day, Miss Seraphine's concert was very successful and caused a sensation throughout the city.

This Zaunite, who was born in Piltover, became the most dazzling star in the Twin Cities with her singing voice and the amplification device of the Hextech device.

Her freshness, vitality and optimism influenced everyone who was listening to the concert at that time.

"I'm fine."

Huo Jixing waved her hand to indicate that she was fine.

Seeing this, the two panicked young men breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to check why the electric float was out of control.

After a small episode, Professor Heimerdinger took Huo Jixing to the center of the academy.

Hextech Core Laboratory!

In Piltover, where is the most cutting-edge Hextech knowledge?

Most inventors would say it is the Yodel Academy of Science and Progress.

Huo Jixing looked up at the towering blue building in front of him. The bronze fence and glazed walls made up the style of both classical and modern.

It was also when he saw this building that he really understood the topic about Hextech researchers that he had heard in the market before.

What does a strong sponsorship mean to an inventor?

The door opened automatically, and Professor Heimerdinger walked in first.

Huo Jixing followed behind him, and before he stepped in, he saw a small Hextech robot on the left side of the door.

It looked a bit like the intelligent robot in the hotel in his previous life.

This small robot wore a dark blue cowboy hat and a bronze body, which was sturdy and durable.

On the face, a Hextech gem that glowed blue was shining charmingly.

The two metal arms were flexible and powerful, and the bottom was a rolling metal wheel, which made it easy to move on different terrains.

"This is the latest product of the laboratory, the Hextech assistant phone."

Heimerdinger pointed at the robot and said, with pride on his plush face.

Buzz!

The Hextech assistant phone slid in front, leading Huo Jixing to visit the laboratory.

A large and a small Poro ran happily, playing and fighting around the Hextech assistant phone.

Compared with the Hextech laboratory of the Midalda family, this place has a more technological feel and is much more luxurious.

There were a wide variety of metal instruments along the way, many of which Huo Jixing had never seen outside.

In addition, he also saw a number of experimental products under development.

And the nearly formed experimental products, the exquisite appearance and complex structure were breathtaking.

In a silver-white laboratory, Huo Jixing saw a fully assembled Hextech mimic.

Its surface shone with a delicate luster, and its eyes blinked, as if it was given life.

There were three Hextech inventors around the body debugging various data.

As he went deeper, Huo Jixing followed Heimerdinger and took the elevator to a spacious room.

This place is different from the laboratory outside. There are leather sofas and tea tables and wooden chairs. It is more like a reception room.

In front of the glass floor-to-ceiling window, Professor Heimerdinger's deep eyes reflected the panoramic view of the Yodel Academy of Science and Progress.

Although his exploration of scientific and technological knowledge in different directions has reached the level of neurotic obsession.

But those are not as good as this academy he has painstakingly established.

Professor Heimerdinger retracted his gaze, turned to look at Huo Jixing, and spoke softly.

"I want to make a deal with you."

"Don't rush to refuse. I'll use one of my collections in exchange for your promise."

"As for the specific content of the promise, I haven't thought about it yet, but don't worry, I will never embarrass you."

Huo Jixing looked surprised. He didn't expect that Professor Heimerdinger invited him to come here to make a deal.

Heimerdinger walked to the wall of the room, tapped his fingers, and a secret box quietly appeared.

He took out a golden box from it and placed it on the tea table in front of Huo Jixing.

Huo Jixing hesitated for a while. A collection requires my promise?

He was a little confused.

Because of Professor Heimerdinger's identity.

You should know that Professor Heimerdinger is not only a talented inventor, but also a Yodel.

Unlike ordinary people who live in the material realm.

As an intelligent race, Yodels live in the spiritual realm and live in Bandle City, with an extremely long lifespan.

So why did Professor Heimerdinger ask him for a promise from an 'ordinary person'?

Huo Jixing's eyes moved between Professor Heimerdinger and the golden box.

It must be said that the golden box was somewhat special, with mysterious runes all over the surface of the box, and a faint magical glow emerged.

"This is a treasure from another world that I found in a secret place when I went out."

Professor Heimerdinger opened the golden box and spoke in a serious tone.

Treasure from another world?

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the golden box with curiosity.

I saw a long sword without a sheath, lying quietly inside, waiting to be awakened.

The long sword was about four feet long, with a blue hilt and exquisitely carved patterns.

The sword was extremely sharp, with blue runes surrounding the blade, like cloud patterns and like wind catkins.

Huo Jixing carefully observed the long sword and found that its style was very similar to the sword school of the Ionian Islands.

And Ionia is an archipelago famous for swordsmanship and magic, and their weapons are often full of artistic and mysterious feelings.

Huo Jixing licked the corner of his mouth gently, and picked up the long sword with his right hand somewhat uncontrollably.

He really liked this long sword too much.

Love at first sight, nothing more than that!

The runes on the sword body were light, and a breeze was summoned out of thin air, bringing a hint of coolness.

The blade gleamed with cold light, and it was sharp enough to cut iron silently.

Huo Jixing waved it casually, causing the wind to make a sound, and he liked it more and more.

On the blade, he noticed two ancient and unfamiliar characters engraved.

These two characters seemed to contain invisible and profound mysteries, but Huo Jixing did not recognize them.

He tried to recall the knowledge he had learned in the Noxus Empire, but these two characters were like a heavenly book, leaving him with no way to start.

Until he heard Professor Heimerdinger say the name of the long sword, his heart trembled.

"Spiritual Wind!"

This name was like a spell, instantly stirring ripples in Huo Jixing's heart.

The memories of his previous life were also like waves.

Huo Jixing held the long sword tightly, closed his eyes and felt the magical rune attributes it had.

It fits the Azure Dragon Constellation very well!

He knew that he had formed an indissoluble bond with this long sword, and he really lacked a good weapon.

If he had a weapon that was right for him during the Soul-Eating Night, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.

Huo Jixing sighed softly. He really couldn't refuse this deal.

If it was any other weapon, he might consider it. But [Spiritual Wind] hit his weak spot perfectly.

"I agree to trade with you." Huo Jixing opened his eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

"But I still have a question that I need you to answer."

"Is it about your Poro?"

Professor Heimerdinger seemed to have expected it. His gentle eyes fell on the two playing Poros.

Huo Jixing was surprised and secretly admired Professor Heimerdinger.

"Yes."

He pulled up the playing snow-white Poro, held it in his arms, looked into its cute eyes, and rubbed its head.
