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 61 Deterrence

"……change?"

Not only Fandel, but everyone else in the tavern also looked at each other with confused expressions.

After a moment, Vandel's eyes swept over the faces of his men, taking in their expressions.

After pondering this for a while, he continued, "I think Dicheng is pretty good right now. What else needs to be changed?"

Li Lin sighed helplessly and told Vandel the decision made by the members of parliament when they convened this morning.

He did not avoid others, so after he finished speaking, the faces of Vandel's men were almost filled with dissatisfaction and indignation.

"What a bunch of crap councillors! Why are they doing this?!"

"We haven't provoked Shangcheng in recent years, have we? Are these damn Shangcheng people really going to kill us all?"

"It was clearly Hilco who did this, so why should we suffer as a result?!"

"In my opinion, we should go and tie up Hilco and send him to the upper city, then..."

"Are you an idiot?! No matter how much we fight among ourselves, it's our own business in the Lower City. Do you still want to lick the asses of those old bastards in the Upper City?"

“…”

As the arguments in the tavern grew more intense, Vandel silently pulled out a pipe from a nearby drawer, struck a match, lit it, and took two puffs.

Then, he slammed the table and raised his voice to suppress the quarrel: "Alright, alright! Can you guys please listen to what Li Lin has to say?"

After hearing the boss's order, the room gradually quieted down, but the restless people's hearts would not calm down so easily.

Feeling the burning gazes of the crowd, which were mixed with various emotions, Li Lin turned around to face them.

"Don't worry, everyone. I've already convinced the councilors, and they've promised to give me five years to change Zaun..."

Before he could finish his words, three thugs who were obviously troublemakers showed disdainful expressions and said provocatively:

"Just you? A little brat who hasn't even grown all his hair yet?"

"Ha! How can I not believe that you, a person from the upper city, are so kind as to help us from the lower city?"

"Yeah, yeah, what about the parliament? The members are blabbering about targeting us. Who knows if that's true or not?"

"In my opinion, we might as well..."

Before Li Lin could say anything, Fandel, who was standing by, could no longer tolerate it and stopped them: "Enough..."

However, these three thorny thugs who had always been dissatisfied with Vandel's concept of comfort and peace still showed no sign of giving up. Instead, they became more and more excited as they spoke:

"Vandel, why are you speaking for an Uptowner?"

"That's right, when will it be the turn of someone from Upper City to tell us what to do and how to do it?"

"Forget about Hilco. If those bastards from uptown dare to come and cause trouble here, we should teach them a lesson! Don't you agree?!"

"right!"

"That's right!"

“That’s how it should be!”

The emotions of the people present were quickly stirred up by the three of them.

Vandel's face gradually became gloomy.

Some people noticed his angry look and reminded the people around them. They all shut their mouths and quietly moved away from the three troublemakers.

At this time, they were the only ones left in the tavern, still shouting loudly and without restraint.

Vander took two puffs of his pipe, walked out from the bar and walked towards the three people.

However, just as he passed by Li Lin, his big mechanical hand pressed his shoulder and stopped him.

Fandel frowned and looked back at Li Lin in confusion, only to see him shaking his head.

"Let me do it."

Fandel nodded, leaning against the bar in silence and blowing smoke rings, waiting to see how he would handle this matter.

Li Lin re-controlled the armor and put on the mask, then asked the leader of the three assassins, "What's your name?"

"Hey, you little brat from uptown, you want to know my..."

"I'm asking you, what's your name?" Li Lin emphasized his tone and took two steps forward.

"What...what? You still want to threaten me? Let me tell you, I've been threatened since I was a child. What you're saying is nothing..."

"Answer my question, what is your name?"

This time, Li Lin activated the [Overload Charging] of the power armor.

After a brief three seconds, the entire metal shell of the armor was covered with flickering blue arcs, making it appear even more intimidating.

The three troublemakers swallowed their saliva and looked at their companions around them with a little panic in their eyes.

Unfortunately, because they are too arrogant and domineering in their daily lives, they have very bad popularity, and Vander has no reaction to Li Lin's actions.

Naturally, the other men loyal to Vandel would not stand up for these three pretentious and gossipy idiots.

Especially when facing such a huge steel guy that can easily crush even "monsters".

The leading troublemaker was pushed several times by the two people behind him, but in order to save face, he forced himself to stand up.

"Humph! Saying my name will...scare you! My name is..."

Before he could finish, Li Lin snorted disdainfully and interrupted him: "Okay, I'm not interested in your name."

"...You bastard!" The prickly man's face flushed and he was furious. "Are you kidding me?"

"Oh, you're so smart, you actually figured it out, haha."

Li Lin chuckled twice, controlling his power armor to raise an international friendly sign to the troublemaker. "What? I'm just teasing you, so what?"

"damn it……"

The troublemaker, whose defense was broken by Li Lin, cursed loudly, pulled out the dagger from his waist and waved it in the air a few times.
