"Jace! You are my lucky star!"

Li Lin stared at Jace with scorching eyes, which made his scalp tingle.

Jace calmly took two steps back, putting some distance between him and Li Lin. "Do you have any clues? Through these incomplete runes?"

"Of course..." Li Lin just said that, then he changed his mind and thought that he was not a mage, so it would be a bit unrealistic to say that, so he immediately changed his words and said, "It's not just that."

Jace raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Lin in confusion.

"Actually, your design helped me avoid some detours. Combined with these runes, I have some ideas... I just need to verify them."

The method of making Hextech energy crystal is not simple. During the production process, magic power must be continuously injected into a pure natural and flawless crystal to engrave runes.

However, Li Lin's mere 50 mana points were not enough, so he had to use another more scientific and clever method using Hextech crystals as raw materials:

First, all the runes needed to make the energy crystal are engraved on a coin-sized metal plate, and then the Hextech resonance device is used to engrave the runes into the Hextech crystal through the resonant flow of energy, thereby upgrading it to an energy crystal.

According to the properties given by the system, although the Hextech Energy Crystal as the core of energy supply is not as good as the original crystal, it can at least solve the current urgent needs.

Jayce just mentioned that a boss on the Zaun black market can get a complete Hextech crystal.

In this way, we will have alternative materials for making energy crystals, and the next thing to consider is the exoskeleton power armor.

But first we have to make the energy crystal as quickly as possible.

Or maybe we should go to Zuan...

Li Lin thought to himself.

However, if you are going to a city-state like Zaun where only alchemy barons maintain order, there are almost no laws, and the security situation is extremely poor, you must take all necessary self-defense measures.

He glanced at the crystal fragment in Jace's instrument. "By the way, Jace, where in Zaun did you buy this crystal fragment?"

"Black Alley, I think it's called Benso's Grocery Store? The structure of the Undercity is intricate and complex, and I can't describe the specific location." Jace was a little surprised. "Why are you asking this?"

"Of course it's for yours... I mean, our research!" Li Lin grabbed the crystal fragment and said, "Let me borrow this thing to study it first."

"But this is all I have. What can I study if you take it away? Can't we study it together?"

Jace wanted to reach out and grab Li Lin to get the crystal fragments back, but he had predicted his move and dodged it nimbly.

"Oh~~ We are all family, but you still divide yours and mine. When we have results in the future, I will give you a complete piece."

Li Lin smiled at Jace, and without daring to stay any longer, he ran out in two steps at a time.

Only Jace, who was confused and hadn't reacted yet, was left there.

"Wait! You, my crystal fragments..."

…

…

In the end, although Jace was persuaded by Li Lin, he still failed to get his Hextech crystal fragment back from him.

If you want to go to Zaun, you must have a way to protect yourself. Li Lin feels that his small body has not yet grown up, and even if ten more people come, they will not be enough to beat the gangsters in Zuan.

Therefore, he must rely on external tools.

For example, there are Hextech revolvers, Hextech gunblades, rocket belts, ice spears and other equipment that combine magic and technology that appear in the game.

Due to the instability of Hextech crystals, these devices have not yet been invented in the current timeline.

Li Lin considered it carefully and decided to use crystal fragments as the energy core to make a magic revolver with the simplest principle.

As a family that rose from Hextech craftsmen, the Gilaman family had no shortage of blueprints, and naturally they had no shortage of guns and the like.

These days, in addition to manufacturing the designs he brought, Li Lin has been using [data-based thinking] to learn a lot of mechanical knowledge in his free time.

Correspondingly, his [Basic Manufacturing] skill was upgraded to [Skilled Manufacturing], and the speed of manufacturing machinery increased by about half.

The manufacturing principle of the Hextech revolver is actually very simple. It only requires transforming the revolver of an ordinary revolver from one that fires kinetic bullets to one that uses crystal as energy to fire energy bullets.

But the problem lies at the technical level: how to transform a kinetic weapon into an energy weapon.

This is not a problem that can be solved by simply replacing a wheel; it also requires overall improvement.

All aspects need to be considered comprehensively, including the pistol's own tolerance to energy, the stability of the crystal fragments, the overall safety of the finished product, etc.

However, with the combination of [Skilled Manufacturing] and [Data-Driven Thinking] and the system's prompts, these are completely out of the scope of consideration.

Li Lin collected all the materials from the warehouse and started the work after everything was ready.

During the intermittent production for several hours, the mana will slowly recover when it is exhausted, and then continue to produce after it is recovered.

Finally, when the Piltover Zodiac basement rang 12 times, a silver-white Hextech revolver with a caliber about the size of a thumb was finally completed.

[Hextech Revolver (Poor): A weapon that combines elements of technology and magic, using Hextech Crystal (fragment) as its energy core, and can fire energy bullets.]
