Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 24 We have ushered in a new era
Li Lin and Baobao went out from the side door of Gilaman's mansion, and they lived in peace and without accidents along the way.

Because they knew that these children would "smuggle" to and from Zaan by jumping on the top of the screaming machine, and Bang Bang's foot was sprained again.

After handing her over to Wei with his own hands, Li Lin specially gave them a money bag containing dozens of silver wheels so that they could take the elevator back normally.

After finally seeing off the four little ancestors, Li Lin hurried back to his studio.

He made an appointment with Jess to study the Hex crystal after dinner tonight, and it's about the same time now.

When he returned to the studio, Li Lin found Jess standing in front of his door holding a small box, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Where did you go? I almost thought you let me go."

As soon as he saw Li Lin, an excited expression appeared on Jess's face, he quickly dodged behind him, and pushed him to the door.

"Quick, open the door quickly!"

Li Lin had black lines all over his head, "Why are you more anxious than me..."

"That's for sure! Any scientist can't wait to face this situation?"

After the two entered the house, Jess locked the door with his backhand, and then went straight to the workbench, "Huh? Bruise medicine? Are you injured?"

Oops, I forgot something...

Li Lin's breathing was stagnant, and he quickly ran forward to clean up all the sundries on the table, explaining:

"Didn't I often train with Caitlin recently? I have thin arms and legs, so it's normal."

"Well, as a craftsman, it's good to have a strong body." Jess smiled, not paying attention to this for too long.

He slowly put the small box in his hand on the table and opened the lid.

A dazzling blue light seemed to have been held in a small box for a long time, and it immediately illuminated the entire room.

Jace picked up a hex crystal and placed it in the groove in the center of the hex resonator on another workbench.

Several streaks of blue static electricity reacted with the metal, and immediately afterwards, the resonance device supplied with energy centered on the groove where the crystal was located, and radiated and diffused the same blue light as the crystal around the base plate.

Jess turned to look at Li Lin, "Are you ready?"

"of course."

Li Lin nodded, and took out more than a dozen pre-made metal discs with rune marks from the drawer, and inserted them all into the designated positions of the resonance device.

Then, he took a deep breath, pressed the start button without hesitation, and turned the power knob on the side of the device to the maximum.

The mechanical gears of the resonance device meshed together, making a slightly harsh metal friction sound.

The ring-shaped support frame erected high around the base plate slowly rotates under the effect of crystal energy, and the speed gradually increases.

And the crystal that emits even more dazzling light trembles and rotates violently in resonance, and a large number of irregular blue arcs of finger thickness react violently with the support frame.

After only two or three seconds, the rotation speed of the support frame was already hard to see with the naked eye, and the entire resonance device trembled violently with the Hex crystal, as if it would completely fall apart in the next second.

At the same time, the Hex crystal also emitted a strong thrust, pushing the two of them outward.

For a moment, the whole room was in chaos.

A trace of panic flashed across Jess's face, "Look at the support frame! I don't think it can hold up!"

"Don't worry, everything is under control."

Li Lin stared at the extremely unstable Hex crystal calmly, focusing on the readings prompted by the system in his mind.

[Hex Energy Crystal is being produced...]

【Current progress: 17%】

When the progress was nearly 30%, the crystal was already floating in the air, and the electric light radiated from it almost filled the entire area inside the support frame.

Not only that, there are also countless dense blue light spots that precipitate out of the crystal in a spherical shape and merge at a very fast speed, finally showing a circle of floating rune marks.

it's time!

Li Lin looked at the timing and quickly turned the knob that controls the metal disc engraved with runes.

Under his inexperienced but very meticulous operation, the runes on the metal disc were engraved into the Hex crystal one by one through energy resonance.

Every time he rotates, the progress bar displayed by the system in his mind jumps a lot forward.

【49%...】

【63%...】

【81%...】

[Current progress: 100%! 】

Finally, when the progress bar reached [-], the Hex crystal shot a beam of energy upwards, almost sending the two of them flying.

At the same time, a huge circular magic circle engraved with runes suddenly appeared on the ceiling.

Time seemed to stand still for a second.

Immediately afterwards, all the leaked energy returned to the crystal in an instant.

【Congratulations!You've crafted a Hex Energy Crystal! 】

[Reward (first production): Level up by 2, skill points x 3]

[You have been promoted to level 5, unlock the mechanic skill panel. 】

【Name: Li Lin】

【Level: Level 5】

[HP: 765/765]

【Mana: 113/113】

【Combat power: 8】

[Skill Points: 7]

【…】

A series of reminders came from Li Lin's mind, but his attention is not on this aspect at all.

He stared intently at the "little stone" that was floating in the air, but had completely lost the azure blue luster that the Hex crystal should have.

[Hex Energy Crystal (Normal): A stable core energy device, a small crystal contains extremely strong energy. 】

[Attributes (for machinery): 500 HP, 500 energy]

【Ability Effect】

[Passive Energy Core: When the energy crystal is used as the core energy supply device, it provides an additional 1000 energy bonus (for machinery). 】

[Passive·Recharging: The energy crystal can absorb the magic elements in the air to recharge itself, recovering 3% of the maximum energy per second. 】

[Active Overload Operation: Through the overload operation of the energy crystal, the machine temporarily gains an additional 500 life points and energy, and restores 10% of the maximum energy per second. It will be scrapped after being used 3 times. 】

Jess glanced at the crystal suspended in the center of the resonance device with lingering fear, "We are...successful, right?"

He was not sure and asked Li Lin.

Because the "New Hex Crystal" in front of him was slightly different from what he had imagined.

Apart from becoming a little rounder and completely losing its luster, it doesn't look like it has changed in any other way, but it looks more ordinary.

If it hadn't been able to float in the air, Jess would have thought that their risky experiment had failed.

"Of course, you are not at ease when I do things?"

Li Lin forcibly suppressed his excitement, reached out and pinched the crystal in his palm.

"The crystal is completely stable, even if it is dropped on the ground from this height, it will not explode again."

"No, don't, even if it is stable, it's best not to do this." Jess was afraid that he would throw away the crystal to demonstrate to himself, so he quickly dissuaded him.

After pausing for a moment, Jess, who had been observing the crystal in Li Lin's hand without looking sideways, let out a long breath and said:

"I didn't expect that we actually succeeded! I can imagine that your name will be recorded in the history of Piltover!
"Li Lin, the pioneer of the future, an inventor who is famous throughout the ages, not only ushered in an era of electrical appliances, but also ushered in a new era of using technology to control magic!"

Jess almost danced with excitement.

"It's us, Jess, it's not just me."

Li Lin smiled slightly, his deep brown pupils shone with a strange brilliance.

"We are the ones who ushered in a new era."
