Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 65: Jace: What Year Is It Today?

A week later, Li En, who had finished his morning exercise, walked out of the dungeon in high spirits.

Looking at the bond degree on the bond panel, it has reached 32%, increasing by 2% on average every day. At this rate, Li En estimates that he will be able to obtain a new bond talent in another nineteen days.

Coming to the bar, he greeted the yawning Vander, "Good morning, Uncle Vander!"

"Good morning, Li En! I've almost finished investigating Mondo's case. Do you want to take a look?"

"Well! Has the list of victims come out?"

After showing Mundo his powerful medical skills, Li En asked Vandel to collect a list of victims.

After coming to Runeland for so many years, even though he possessed unimaginable strength and enormous power from his previous life, he was willing to display some of his good qualities from his previous life as long as it did not affect himself.

If nothing else, it makes him happy.

In addition, kindness is not a necessity for those in high positions, but it is undeniable that most people would not hate working with a kind superior.

This kind of character setting was part of his plan, and it has already begun to show results.

Vander handed over the document with admiration in his eyes but complaints on his face.

"I really don't understand the thoughts of you upper-class people in Piltover. You beat up Mundo, and they couldn't thank you enough, but you still want to give them money? Why, is this how you waste money?"

"Sorry, Uncle Vander, if you have money you can do whatever you want!"

Li En made a joke and opened the file to read it.

"Hmm? This... looks a lot less than expected!"

"I asked the brothers to check it three times. The data is correct. The main reason is that Mundo always acts at night. As you know, not everyone dares to hang out outside in Zaun at night. Apart from those bastards, these are the only ordinary victims!"

"Okay, then let's go and compensate these people according to the previous arrangement!"

...

After breakfast, Li En took Baobao and Wei to the elevator.

Today is the weekend at Piltover Academy, and he has made an appointment with Caitlyn to make up for their last appointment and go shopping with her.

In order to prevent the two from being watched on the streets of Piltover, Li En prepared Piltover costumes for them to change into in advance, all of which were high-end products exclusively supplied by the Midalda family.

Baobao is wearing a sky blue dress with flower accessories on her head, looking cute and well-behaved.

Wei was dressed in a noble lady's hunting outfit, simple, capable and heroic.

The administrator respectfully opened the elevator exclusively for the nobility, and Li En led the two of them in. With a slight vibration, the elevator slowly accelerated upward.

"Wow! Sister, look! This is the full picture of Zaan!"

Through the glass, Baobao looked at the city where he lives from this perspective for the first time since he was a child, and his face was full of surprise and excitement.

"Well, I saw it!"

Unlike the experience of clinging to the outside of the Screaming Elevator, Wei touched the velvet cushion beneath her body. The feeling of stability and security allowed her to experience the gap between Piltover and Zaun in the most intuitive way.

A strange feeling came over her, but she didn't understand what it was yet.

"Leen! This way!"

After getting out of the elevator, the three saw Caitlin waving at the carriage not far away, with Orianna standing next to her.

After some greetings, the five of them got on a carriage and headed for the city center.

...

Jace's recent research progress has not been ideal.

Due to the previous alchemy pipeline explosion in Zaun, the situation in Zaun has been rather chaotic in recent times.

The prices of some of the contraband items needed for Jayce's experiment have recently increased by at least 30% on the Zaun black market, which forced him to interrupt his original experimental plan.

The Gilaman family also carried out an internal cleanup because of Caitlyn's previous danger in Zaun.

From this, they discovered that he had used the name of Gilaman to secretly transport contraband to Piltover.

Although Lady Cassandra did not explicitly criticize his little move, the financial assistance from the Gilaman family was cut by 20%.

"Damn Zaun!"

The more Jace thought about it, the angrier he became. He threw away the tools in his hand, turned around and left. He was not in the mood to conduct experiments now. He needed to go out and relax.

...

Walking on the most prosperous commercial street in the center of Piltover, Jace admired the beauty of machinery everywhere around him, and his mood gradually calmed down.

Suddenly, a familiar blue-haired figure appeared in Jace's sight.

Suddenly an idea came to his mind. He hoped that with the help of the other party, the funds provided by the Jiraman family could be restored or even increased.

"Kai...!?"

Just as Jace was about to call out to the other person, he saw a black-haired noble boy about the same age as Caitlin walking up to Caitlin holding a girl with the same blue hair.

Caitlin handed the two people ice cream with a smile on her face. The three of them ate ice cream together and talked and laughed. The harmonious and intimate atmosphere was like a family.

"No... this... how many years later have I been here?"

Jace rubbed his brows and subconsciously looked at the date on the street newspaper.

While Jace was confused, Li En and the other two were happily communicating in the distance.

"How is it? Does the ice cream in Piltover suit your taste?"

"Mmm, delicious! Mmm...Sister Caitlin is a good person!"

"Hahaha!"

Hearing how Baobao, who was short of vocabulary, took a long time to come up with a word to praise Caitlin, both Li En and she laughed happily.

Baobao scratched his face in confusion, ate the ice cream in his hand in a few bites, and then looked at the other two ice creams in Caitlin's hand with shining eyes.

"Sister Caitlin, my sister hasn't come back yet. If the ice cream melts, it won't taste good. Let me help her eat it first!"

"Baobao, if you eat too much, you'll have a stomachache!"

"Caitlin! What a coincidence, meeting you here!"

A voice that sounded joyful but a little tired was heard, and the three of them turned around to look.

The man was wearing the uniform of Piltover Academy. He had a well-proportioned and strong figure, a resolute and upright face, but there were a few bloodshot eyes and faint dark circles on his face.

"Jace! Long time no see. You haven't been in the lab today!"

"Haha, I just came out of the lab, taking a walk to relax! By the way, this is..."

Caitlin reached out and pulled Li En over, introducing him with a smile on her face.

"This is Li En Midarda, and this is his sister Bao Bao! Li En, this is Jess Tallis, a very powerful researcher!"

Hearing Midalda's last name, Jace's heart moved and a warm smile appeared on his face.

"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Li En, Miss Baobao!"

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jace!"

...

Looking at the backs of the three people walking away, I thought of Caitlin's intimate behavior just now and the power of the Midalda family.

Jace no longer had any hope of regaining the favor of the Gilaman family.

However, it was not without gain.

Jace looked at the contact information given by Li En and thought about what the other party said before he left.

"If Jiraman doesn't work, then try Midalda!"
