Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

The architectural styles of Zaun and Piltover are quite different.

New buildings in the upper town combine smooth marble, bronze grids and shiny glass, even as older buildings next door are made of stone or wood.

Most of the buildings in the bottom city are mainly made of steel grids, and the overall color is dull silver, copper and dark green that have been corroded by alchemical chemicals.

Most of these metals come from hot furnace slag or recycled uptown waste.

Among the dense and heavy haze, the most eye-catching thing is the bright yellow-green light emanating from the buildings of different shapes.

Those lights are powered by alchemical chemicals, and Piltover's buildings and streetlights on both sides of the road also glow in this color year-round.

The towering buildings with staggered layers pierce the thick fog and rush into the sky, making it almost impossible to see the top.

Coupled with the alchemy-enhanced prosthetics that can be seen everywhere on pedestrians on the roadside, it shows a unique cyberpunk style.

Because the air was really hard to breathe, Li Lin and Caitlin spoke little along the way and walked quickly between large and small dense and crowded buildings and roads.

The two walked for about an hour, but when they saw a familiar scene repeated several times in front of them, they found that they were back to the starting point again.

"Why is the road in the bottom city so complicated, even I can't figure it out..." Caitlin, who was a little crazy, finally couldn't help complaining.

Li Lin shrugged helplessly.

He had already suggested to Caitlin that he should find someone to ask for the way out, but she firmly believed that she could find the way out with her keen hunter senses...

However, seeing that the girl was obviously angry, Li Lin wisely chose not to complain.

After getting lost again and returning to the starting point, Caitlin finally gave up the struggle and said in despair: "How about we find someone to ask for the way down..."

I've been waiting for your words for a long time.

Li Lin sighed silently and turned to look at a middle-aged man preparing to open for business in front of a nearby restaurant called "Fugen Tavern".

He has long back hair mixed with black and gray, the beard around his mouth and the sideburns are neatly trimmed, and his clothes are also very clean and tidy, which makes him look a little out of place compared to other people in Zaan.

Well, he seems kind enough, so be it.

"The door hasn't opened yet. Come back later." Hearing the footsteps approaching from behind, the middle-aged man continued busy with his work without looking back.

"I hope the smog will not enter your home." Li Lin greeted politely, "Sorry to bother you, but we are not here to drink."

"...Then what are you doing?"

The middle-aged man put down the box in his hand and turned around. He put one hand on the sign next to him and looked at the two people suspiciously.

"If anything happens, just tell me quickly. It's not easy to run a small business. I have to be busy organizing things to open the business."

"Just asking for directions." Li Lin took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to the middle-aged man.

"You two are not from Dicheng, right?" The middle-aged man and Li Lin looked at each other for a moment, "It's not a good thing to show money in this place... It's the same for you and the beautiful lady beside you. "

"Thank you for reminding us, we are sensible." Li Lin responded politely.

The middle-aged man grinned, stretched out his rough hands to take the silver wheel and put it into his pocket, "Tell me, where do you two want to go? I personally recommend that you don't go to remote places."

"I just wanted to ask, do you know where Benso's Grocery Store is?"

Upon hearing this name, a glint flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, but he did not immediately answer Li Lin's question.

After a very brief thought, he chuckled: "Of course I know. That old guy buys some junk stuff every day but can't sell it. The shop is about to close down... I wonder what you two want from him?"

Li Lin noticed some abnormalities in the middle-aged man's behavior, and felt his waist being secretly poked by Caitlin. He also smiled and said, "I'm just asking if he has sold something. It's no big deal."

"That's it..." The middle-aged man was silent for a while, "Bensuo's grocery store is a bit remote. Otherwise, if you wait for me to make some arrangements, I can take you two there."

Li Lin frowned secretly, not understanding what this middle-aged man had in mind, "This is not good... won't it delay your business?"

"No, no, it's only the afternoon, and the guests won't come until the evening."

Just when Li Lin was about to refuse, he suddenly caught a glimpse of two girls with different hair colors in the tavern, one pink and one blue.

Is this Vi and Jinx when they were kids?

Why are they here?

In the main universe he knew, Vi and Jinx were twin orphans and had never lived together since childhood.

But the two girls in front of him, who were obviously a few years apart in age, clashed again with the story in his memory.

Li Lin watched blankly as the middle-aged man walked into the restaurant and explained something to the two girls. Suddenly, the system's mechanical prompt sounded in his mind:

【Congratulations! You have contacted five heroes, leveled up two levels, gained 2 skill points, and unlocked the skill upgrade module! 】

[Name: Li Lin]

[Level: Level 3]

[HP: 585/585]

[Mana value: 80/80]

[Skill points: 2]

【……】

What's happening here? !

Li Lin was really surprised by the sudden reminder from the system, but what followed was excitement and excitement in his heart.

I said that this broken system didn’t even have any missions, and I didn’t know how to level up. It turned out that I needed to get in touch with heroes.

As soon as he figured this out, a new doubt soon emerged:

In addition to Vi and Jinx in front of me, even if Jace and Caitlin were added, didn't he only meet 4 heroes?

Then who is the fifth hero prompted by the system?

Li Lin carefully recalled his recent experiences.

Big head and Victor?

They seemed to be at the University of Piltover, so I couldn't even reach them.

Xiao Huangmao, Chongzhang and the singer are all children now. I usually never leave the house and never see them at all.

As for the heroes of Zaun, it is even more impossible.

The likes of robots, Zack, and rats haven't even been born yet. Mundo and Ikko are unknown. Singed has just finished researching the alchemy bomb for Noxus. Urgot is even still in Darkwei at this time. Your men will be the executioners.

Could it be Feng Nu?

But isn’t it because she has no faith and is almost disappearing?

Or is it that after traveling through time, a new hero appeared in Riot that he didn’t know about...

Li Lin scratched his hair, unsure of what to do.

"Hey, are you really going to let this guy take us there?" While he was deep in thought, Caitlin said quietly behind him: "Can't you see? This guy definitely has some secrets to hide from us."

"He should know Ben Suo, and he is probably afraid that we are here to cause trouble." Li Lin shook his head, "We are not here to cause trouble anyway. I don't think the problem is big."

"Okay, but if something unexpected happens, you'd better hide behind me."

"Hiding behind you?"

Li Lin glanced at Caitlin's small figure in surprise, and she glared back angrily.

"Don't look at me as tall or strong as you, but I have received professional fighting training. If I really want to fight, I can knock down at least 10 of you!"

That's true. I haven't been trained, so I definitely can't beat you...

Li Lin was speechless for a moment and turned his attention to the bar again.

I saw the middle-aged man calling two boys, one fat and one thin, out of the back room and arranging tasks for them.

But since he is the guardian of Vi and Jinx, nothing should happen to him.

Not to mention I have a gun.

As the saying goes, a gun is fast from seven steps, and a gun is accurate and fast within seven steps.

While thinking about it, Li Lin subconsciously touched a bulging hard object on his waist, feeling more at ease.

After another minute, the middle-aged man came out with an apology, "I kept you two waiting for a long time. There are many children at home. If you don't give me some warning, I will always cause some trouble."

"It's understandable. After all, we have something to trouble you with. We should wait for you to arrange your own affairs carefully."

Li Lin smiled and extended his right hand to him, "Li Lin, I wonder if I can make friends with you?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then he reached out his hand and shook Li Lin lightly, and at the same time said a name in a muffled voice:

"Fander." He paused for a moment. "Warwick Fander."
