Jace suddenly opened his eyes wide, swallowed hard, and said subconsciously:
"No! That's not the case! I didn't mean to force you!"
Lin Luo didn't speak, but looked at him quietly.
This version of him has changed qualitatively from the previous version.
In short, it means having strength, so you have the confidence to speak.
He is no longer the level 20 adventurer who just stepped out of the heroic city-state. He has many legendary friends. He even knows more than one legendary hero who is more powerful than Jace. Piltover is not a very strong city-state.
, this Jace has an equal status at best with him.
If the other person is honest with you, you will be polite in return.
If the other party treats you as a tool, then you won't look good on him.
"Alright alright……"
Jess took a deep breath, pressed his hands and said:
"Lin, this completely depends on your own wishes. I will not force you to let your legions help us attack Zaun... I hope you don't misunderstand. I apologize to you."
This is also the role of Lin Luo's famous achievements.
Having fame will not bring you actual combat power, but it can be useful on special occasions.
[Tip: You made a second choice, you did not choose your camp, you are now a neutral camp.]
What Lin Luo can predict is that many other players will definitely choose a camp and then start a camp war in the Twin Cities.
But he has taken this lightly. The main theme of this version is chasing the world rune fragments, which shows that this thing is the ultimate item among the best.
Lin Luo needs to upgrade and change jobs as soon as possible and go to Bilgewater to retrieve the rune fragments. This is the most critical thing.
As for the remaining players, they may obtain rune fragments in the camp missions in Twin Cities.
If it's a friendly force, it's okay. If someone messes with you, I'm sorry. Your treasure belongs to me.
After Lin Luo chose his camp, Jess was obviously a little disappointed, but he still said:
"Get ready and go to Zaun to pick up your legion members. Otherwise, with the temperament of those people in the lower city, they will definitely conflict with your legion."
[Tip: You have obtained the normal main quest of Future Guardian-Jace: Go to Zaun.]
[Task description: As a friend, he still hopes that your legion will arrive in Pi City smoothly, but Zaun, where the poisonous gas roams, is the only way to Pi City from the ground. Please go to Zaun and lead your legion to Pi City.
city.】
[Task reward: some experience points.]
Sure enough, if you don't choose a camp, the reward will only be pure experience points.
But what Lin Luo lacks now is just experience points. He doesn't need anything else. The most attractive thing about Pi City is money, but he is not short of money. This is what those merchant players have to worry about.
Lin Luo left Tallis's mansion and asked the other three:
"How's your mission exploration going?"
Tata said:
"I have received several visiting missions, but they are all for one person and cannot be shared."
Cat head said:
"The tasks I have here can be shared, but they don't have much experience points. They are all side tasks."
"Hong Shi, what about you?"
Lin Luo suddenly realized that Hong Shi had not spoken. Although she was a life player, life players could also accept tasks.
"Look! She's unable to communicate!"
Cat Tou suddenly screamed, which surprised everyone.
"What?"
"Is this the case when you first come to Piltover?"
If a player is unable to communicate, they can only enter a very special location. This location is either a difficult mission or a job transfer mission...
"Could it be that she has to do something difficult by herself?"
Lin Luo thought and then shook his head:
"Impossible. Difficult tasks can be shared. Even if she is a real life player, she will tell us when she receives the task. So..."
Tata exclaimed:
"Is she changing jobs? I remember that only when changing jobs, the player will be forcibly dragged into the job-changing space. At this time, there is no way to send messages."
Everyone was shocked.
No, you can receive a job transfer task right after you arrive. What kind of top-notch luck is this?
…
Piltover is in the middle of the city at this time.
Not far from the Parliament Building in Piltover, there is a very distinguished and quiet Institute of Technology.
Hong Shi stood here inexplicably:
"where is this place?"
She looked around at everything, surrounded by a very open experimental square, yes, it was a square for experiments, and she could see that the dean of this college and the investors behind it were extremely wealthy.
All the experimental props, research equipment, as well as various research data and electronic equipment almost fill up one-third of this wide experimental square, and it is not crowded but orderly.
This shows that there is more than one assistant to handle these experimental items.
"This is... a quartz red lead modulator?"
Hong Shi looked at an experimental prop not far away in surprise. She was extremely surprised. This was one of the upgrade props she needed to switch to a new career not long ago - a scientist.
This thing is so rare that you can't even get it in a place like Demacia.
Moreover, Hong Shi gave up a lot of social interactions in the game in order to study the profession of scientific researcher. Originally, she planned to focus on developing appraisers, but soon she understood that with her unwillingness to be boring, this kind of comfortable career with a golden rice bowl
, which made her feel too bored.
So she secretly started researching, and she also met a group of like-minded niche scientific research players.
With their help, Hongshi developed the first helicopter. You must know that the physical rules of Runeterra are slightly different from reality, and any subtle differences at the physical level may lead to unexpected results in the actual research results.
Different changes.
But she still succeeded, and even though some of it was helped by game mechanics, she still did it.
Developing a completely technological creation in a place like Demacia is tantamount to practicing magic with bare hands in a fully modern technological city.
So she got a rare achievement: "Brilliant Inventor"
It was for this reason that when she came to Piltover before, she received a very secret mission, but she didn't pay attention to it at the time.
Later, as she walked, she realized that she was clearly walking on a wide continent, but the people on the road began to change. How could it be possible? Why did these people suddenly turn into exquisite dolls, and these dolls were also marked with
With the exquisite sequence, it seems to be a prop for some kind of experiment?
Hongshi was shocked. Did she hit a wall?
What on earth is this place?
A sudden voice relieved her doubts:
"Ahem... little girl, this is Heimerdinger's experimental square. I'm sorry to bring you here without your permission. It's a Hex magnetic field channel... Well, you can understand it as,
This is a brand new technology that you are about to come into contact with, it is what brought you here!”
The voice seemed energetic, a little sharp but not harsh. Instead, it sounded like an old naughty boy.
Hongshi's eyes suddenly widened and she turned around. Just like Tata before, she saw nothing.
"Ahem! Please look down!"
Hongshi lowered her head in surprise and found a mini-man with a big head standing upright in front of her.
She subconsciously said:
"Yordles?"
Yordles are no longer rare among the player community. There are Yordle NPCs in both Demacia and Noxus, and there are more than one.
But the yordles in Piltover...
Hong Shi immediately blurted out:
"You are the boss!!!"
This title petrified Heimerdinger on the spot. He opened his mouth with an expression of disbelief:
"What did you call me? Oh my god, didn't your parents teach you manners!"
Hong Shi's pretty face turned red immediately, and she said a little embarrassedly:
"I'm sorry... I just felt it..."
Heimerdinger moved his mouth, but he was extremely well-educated and did not get angry. Instead, he muttered:
"Young girl, you should treat the elderly with respect. My head is full of wisdom!"
Hong Shi nodded quickly.
She immediately realized that she must have encountered some rare mission.
And the fundamental reason that led her to encounter this task was the "Brilliant Inventor" achievement. As expected, such achievements can have very magical effects on special occasions.
"Please take a seat and introduce yourself. My name is Heimerdinger. I am a fourth-generation doctor from Piltover, the dean of the Clock Academy, the retired Science Councilor, and the founder of science in Piltover... In short
, I am currently working on the Hex third-generation technology project with my students and assistants. If I guess correctly, you have a good invention, can you show it to me?"
Heimerdinger muttered a lot, then jumped up with a flat jump that violated the laws of physics, and landed straight on a high chair to sit down.
Hong Shi saw a strange belt tied around his waist. It was this power that made him suddenly fly up from the ground.
Hongshi felt very strange. She sat on the chair behind her and introduced herself:
"My name is Hong Shi, and I am an adventurer from the Heroic City... By the way, are you talking about my invention?"
Hong Shi opened her life and career backpack, took out the dilapidated helicopter, and said:
"This is actually not just my invention, but something I and a group of like-minded friends made together... Well, it looks a bit shabby, but it's actually very useful. Its stable speed can reach up to...
"
As Hong Shi was talking, she suddenly noticed Heimerdinger's lemon-yellow eyes, as moist and clear as gems, staring at the helicopter carefully.
This caused Hong Shiqing to become quiet involuntarily.
At this time, the other person felt to her like a very intoxicated and engaged scholar, reading an article full of typos but full of vigorous ideals, so that she did not dare to disturb him by speaking.
"It's a very rough manufacturing process that even has some common sense errors."
Heimerdinger sighed, stroking the rusty propeller with his chubby little hand.
"You and your companions know little about the scientific basis of this world, and do not have very solid basic theoretical knowledge. However, you have wild and wild adventure ideas. This reminds me of when I was in Bandle City. At that time, I also made
There have been similar inventions..."
The great inventor Heimerdinger looked back and stared at Hong Shi with a very serious expression, his half-foot-long beard moving:
"Hong Shi, let me ask you now, are you willing to start as an assistant, stay next to me, and learn the new Hex technology with me?"
He emphasized:
"Let me tell you quietly, whether they are the future guardians of Piltover or the mechanical pioneers of Zaun, they were once my students. If you reject me, you will never have a second chance in this life!"
[Tip: You have obtained the favorability task of the great inventor Heimerdinger: whether you are willing to become one of his experimental assistants, you have five minutes to think about it. 】
[Task reward: After you accept this task, you will open the favorability of the great inventor Heimerdinger, and if you complete the task assigned to you by Heimerdinger within seven natural days, you will be able to obtain the most special thing in Runeterra.
Hong Shi was shocked. It turned out to be a job transfer mission!
To be precise, this is a prerequisite for the job change mission. If you stay with Heimerdinger for seven days, you can get the job change mission of Combat Scientist.
"How come I haven't heard of this profession..."
Hong Shi took a closer look and opened up the characteristics of that profession, and immediately covered her mouth in shock!
It turns out that this combat scientist can actually have two major professions at the same time. After the job transfer is successful, a second page of character panels will appear.
This character panel is a combat character panel, which means that after Hong Shi successfully changes her profession, she can have the dual identities of a life player and a combat player at the same time.
However, you can only have one identity at the same time, and you cannot switch identities during combat.
Hong Shi immediately realized the importance of this task. Even if he could not successfully change his job, being able to open up Heimerdinger's favorability was what countless people dreamed of.
"I accept your mission!"
After the red poem was finished, Heimerdinger nodded and said:
"Very good, you can call me Dr. Heimerdinger from now on, Hongshi."
"Okay! Dr. Heimerdinger!"
…
…………
At this time, Lin Luo was standing next to a very special position in Piltover.
Directly in front of him were the huge lifting devices of Zaun and Piltover. Since the two cities were too far apart from each other, they could only pass through this device to facilitate travel. But in fact, it was often a one-way passage.
Because this is completely for Piltover's spies and merchants to go to Zaun.
When the people of Zaun want to go up, they will not choose to spend a lot of money to take this 'giant elevator', but to climb up through the sewer next to it, or even climb directly through the cliff. Anyway, it's okay for them to spend money.
impossible.
"Still unable to communicate?"
Lin Luo asked.
Tata and Maotou shrugged, and Lin Luo frowned:
"We've been waiting for an hour. Let's go down first. The Legion's people are probably here. We can't let them conflict with the Zaans!"
An hour ago, Lin Luo was waiting, hoping to wait for Hong Shi, but of course she failed.
He also visited many NPCs and obtained a lot of specific information about Zaun through his extremely high achievement reputation.
After all, if you are not familiar with the place, you must understand the geographical conditions.
These things are difficult to obtain, and Lin Luo went on several missions to obtain these rare materials.
At least for someone who has just arrived in Zaun, it is very useful.
Cat Tou looked at the huge lifting device that was smelly, full of dirty water, and even some unknown excrement, with a very disgusted expression.
He complained to the Piltover guard next to him:
"Please, aren't you in Pi City very rich? Can you decorate this elevator a little neater?"
The Piltover guard obviously couldn't understand the term "elevator" and said expressionlessly:
"This has nothing to do with Pi City. Even if we clean the lifting device and make it look brand new every time, it will still look like this after we go to the lower city."
