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 542 The Calm Before the Storm

After finding his former follower Stiratu, Aatrox did not stay in the Twin Cities for long. He immediately returned to Shurima through the portal and prepared to lift the seal for her.

Unlike Varus, who was once eager for revenge and lost his mind, Stiratu participated in the Void War, but as a mage, she did not need to go too deep into the battlefield, so the impact she suffered was not serious.

Even during the Darkin Rebellion, Stiratu was more rational than most Darkin. As long as she could break the seal and ascend a second time, with her strong control over fire elemental magic, she would definitely be a great help to Shurima and even the League of Legends.

After temporarily dealing with the emergencies in Freljord and Zaun, Runeterra was in peace for a year and a half.

As the League of Legends grows, those small "accidental" incidents will be quickly resolved.

In Ionia, with Li Lin's secret guidance, Shen discovered in an "accident" that his father Ku Shuo, who had been "dead" for many years, had appeared on the plateau of Zhiyun Province and had learned shadow magic.

After being discovered by Shen, Ku Shuo was not too panicked. Instead, he wanted to win him over and the now-revived Order of the Kinkou to join the Navoli Brotherhood, and then take control of the entire Ionia, and even wanted to compete for the dominance of the League of Legends.

Ku Shuo has changed. He is completely different from the venerable Twilight Eyes that Shen remembered.

Shen could not accept that his revered father was corrupted by shadow magic. During the confrontation with him, Kushuo, who had long lost his humanity, was ready to kill his own son, but was stopped by Jie who rushed over after hearing the news.

The world line has changed and been advanced. Shen and Zed, who had practiced less for many years and were not as mature as in the original world line, were no match for Ku Shuo, who had the Shadow Tear and whose magic was greatly enhanced.

Fortunately, Li Lin arrived in time to help them, and thus solved the problem of the former leader of the Balance Sect who was swallowed by shadow magic.

It was also from this that Shen finally learned the truth about the Order of the Kinkou being robbed, captured and massacred. All of this was the work of his father in order to secretly resist Noxus. He just said that he was influenced by the Tears of Shadows and deviated from his original intention.

Some time later, with the joint efforts of the Kinkou and the Shadow, the Navoli Brotherhood in Ionia was abolished, the Shadow gradually reduced its external activities, and the Kinkou returned to its dominant position.

Now that Ku Shuo is dead, Jie has no interest in the power struggle and chooses to devote himself to training Kayn to be his successor, while preparing for the coming of the Void in the future.

The religious beliefs of Mount Targon are still a problem. The Sun Sect is autocratic and self-contained. Apart from the people in the area of ​​Mount Targon, they hardly communicate with the outside world.

Even Pantheon, the former human host of the War Aspect, no longer recognized Atreus' status as the "God of War" due to the destruction of the War Constellation in the sky.

In recent months, Li Lin tried to contact Leona, the goddess of dawn, whom he had met once before during the duel against Xerath. However, even though she knew about the extreme actions of the Solari Cult, the goddess was unable to influence the sect's extreme ideas.

She knew that the Lieyang Sect had deviated from its original intention, but Li Lin tried to contact the sect's top leaders through her, but was still rejected by her.

Leona, infused with the power of the Solar Spirit, has long since shed her mortal body. She has stayed in Mount Targon for dozens or even hundreds of years, being influenced by the Solari Sect day and night.

[To be honest, I've been using Yeguo Reader to keep up with updates lately. It's easy to switch between sources, and has a variety of reading voices. .yeguoyuedu is available for both Android and Apple devices.]

After all, she is the guardian and revealer of the Solari Cult. Leona still has trust in the current top leaders and believes that the affairs of the Solari Cult should be handled by them themselves, and Li Lin or the League of Legends have no right to interfere.

Out of helplessness and busyness, Li Lin temporarily put aside the matters on Giant God Peak and had no intention of asking Zuo Yin to help him.

In addition, through the miniature Runeterra's location of the last place where the Darkin appeared, it was found that a family named Fortis on the Demacia side inherited a shield. They happened to be followers of Aatrox and one of his most admired subordinates - Jorar, who was good at absolute defense.

Traces of new Darkin living weapons have also been detected in the Bilgewater Sea, Ionia's Baru Province, and the northern mountains of Mount Targon. However, the mechanical engineers and Ascended are still scanning and searching, and there are no results yet.

Things on the planet Runeterra, in outer space, the construction of the fourth phase of the star fortress is nearing completion.

It could have been completed more than half a year ago, but some of the mechanical engineers were dispatched to other countries and the front lines to build defense lines, which slowed down the process a lot, but the impact was not significant.

In the Piltover administrative office building, Li Lin was sitting in his office checking the information compiled by the intelligent computer in recent days.

Up to now, genetic enhancement technology has been made public for some time, and every registered citizen of Shuangcheng is eligible to receive the first-stage genetic enhancement drug free of charge.

Because Li Lin brought about earth-shaking changes to Shuangcheng, almost no one did not support him. In addition, with the publicity from those who had been injected with the drug, within a week, the vast majority of people had their bodies strengthened in an orderly manner.

Lines of projected data flew past Li Lin's eyes quickly. To ordinary people, it was just a flash, but Li Lin's brain was comparable to that of a supercomputer, which was enough to easily process this tiny bit of content.

"The pilot project in the two cities is going smoothly. If Jarvan III and Swain can implement it, strengthening the people of Demacia and Noxus shouldn't be a problem.

"If nothing unexpected happens in these two countries, we can start with Shurima as a pilot, and then develop Ionia, Freljord, and Bilgewater."
