Arcane: I Built Mechs in Piltover

Li Lin transmigrated to Piltover on the continent of Valoran. He originally thought his life would pass by uneventfully, until he became an employee of the Kiramman family and discovered he possess...

Chapter 135 Infernal Affairs

You are so suspicious. Have you even started to doubt me?

Li Lin's mood couldn't help but sink. He thought he had underestimated this young girl who had just come of age.

"I've told you before, Cassiopeia, the design of these robots is secondary; the primary concern is the energy source."

He said with great sincerity, "The Gilaman family is keeping the new technology of Hextech Crystal very strictly guarded. I can't reveal my identity yet..."

"At the very least, my mission won't be complete until I steal the manufacturing process for Piltover's new hextech crystals and report the results to the Pale Lady.

"But because I had always wanted to apply to study hex crystals, that cunning Councillor Gilaman noticed something was amiss."

I'm sorry, mother-in-law. To prevent this venomous snake from getting suspicious, I can only say this...

Li Lin apologized to Mrs. Karina in his heart, but continued calmly:

"I took the initiative to apply to come to Shurima to build the Hextech Flygate because I wanted to regain that woman's trust. And also because of the Pale Lady's mission... When I return this time, I'm very confident I'll be able to obtain the energy technology."

Hearing him say this, Cassiopeia's brows relaxed a little.

Li Lin had told her at Zureita's hotel that the pale lady had specifically given him the task of assisting her.

This time going south with Kassadin to his hometown was just a cover. In fact, Li Lin’s target was also the ruins of the imperial capital.

Li Lin had no intention of revealing his identity, but his deliberate approach forced him to do so...

"I don't know whether there is any divine power in the tomb... Maybe we will return empty-handed, and it will be difficult to explain then," Cassiopeia reminded.

"I understand. Don't worry." Li Lin comforted her softly, "If you really don't have the power of the gods, just leave the rest to me. You can rest assured to report to your mother."

Cassiopeia lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment. "Okay, let's go back..."

"Well, remember not to come to me so frequently anymore. It would be bad if it arouses the suspicion of Sivir and Kassadin."

Li Lin nodded, said goodbye to her and turned to leave.

After he walked away, Cassiopeia, who was still standing there, stared at his back with her light brown eyes, restraining all the subtle expressions on her face, and her eyes showed indifference.

She was not a fool to believe Li Lin so easily based on his one-sided statement.

Everything she showed before was just her disguise.

"The Pale Lady's people... so what if they are, and so what if they aren't?"

How could a hunter lurking in the shadows leave even the slightest trace?

Cassiopeia's principle of action is to leave no one who knows the truth behind.

The corners of her mouth curled up in a cold arc, and she snorted coldly, "Anyway, you will be buried under the yellow sand..."
