I'm in Demacia, I just became a mage

Is there such a thing as earning two dollars for one job?Li Weisi was a little moved at first, but then he hesitated.
However, as a private detective, you must abide by the confidentiality agreement, which is related to professional ethics and reputation, and may cause trouble for yourself...
Li Weisi frowned. Although he needed money, he hadn't broken the rules in exchange for money. What's more, a private detective who didn't abide by the non-disclosure agreement could be regarded as self-defeating.
After seeing his expression, Mr. Wasley immediately added: "Of course it does not affect the privacy of your client."
Levi was silent for a few seconds, but considering that the side effects of doing so might affect him, he still didn't take up the job, and just said, "I'll think about it."
In general, consider the implications of
It basically means rejection.
"No problem, I'm just making a suggestion. If you've made up your mind, you can come to the newspaper to find me." Mr. Vasley obviously understood the rejection contained in Levi's, and followed suit with a polite sentence.
Afterwards, Levi signed the agreement in duplicate, paid ten hexades, and finally left the newspaper office.
-------------------------------------
After leaving the Evolution Daily newspaper office in the Minsk neighborhood, Levi, with a roll of paper in one hand and a cane in the other, walked slowly to the large library adjacent to Baker Street and in the college district.
Perhaps it was because of the gray fog last night, the daytime weather today is not bad, the sky is as clear as blue, the sun shines warm and bright, and the clear sea breeze shakes the street trees, making rustling noises.
Ignoring the surrounding buildings, landmarks and pedestrians, Levi's will have the illusion of walking in 21st century London when walking on the clean and wide streets.
After arriving at the entrance of the large library, Li Weisi felt that there were still some things that had to be done, so he took out his pocket watch and popped open the hollow case to check the time.
"One o'clock in the afternoon...let's have lunch first."
So he changed his pace, walked down the clean and tidy street, and went to a small but warmly decorated restaurant. He ordered a beef stew with potatoes, a few sweet breads and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.
Levi's was quite satisfied with the meal. The sweet bread dipped in the potato goulash soup, the soft and sweet bread wrapped in the viscous broth, the wonderful food brought by chewing in the mouth gave people a sense of stability and satisfaction.
But the biggest regret is that there is no rice. It is said that this kind of grain is only available in restaurants run by Ionians.
Maybe I should go to the restaurant opened by the Ionians next time.Levi took the last bite of the mellow potato, wiped his mouth with a napkin, paid the bill and left.
After eating and drinking, Li Weisi returned to the big library. There was no change in the library from the last time he came. It was still crowded and quiet.
The bright sunlight cast brilliant light and shadow through the stained glass around the dome, as if time had solidified this space.
Occasionally, by coincidence, the sound of pages being turned could be heard.
Whoa!
The sound echoed in the library of Nuoda University, but it made the library seem even quieter.
Perhaps because of his postgraduate entrance examination experience, Li Weisi especially likes this atmosphere, which has a kind of detachment and inner peace that isolates external troubles and unhappiness.
He spent a few silver wheels at the counter to apply for a borrowing certificate, and then went straight to find some manuals of mechanical inventions according to the book divisions, which recorded all patented inventions and creations, as well as some brief introductions to them.
Afterwards, Levi took some time to find out what to do as usual, maybe it was because he came at the wrong time or for other reasons.
After he browsed around, he found that just like last time, except for the corridor on the top floor, which he didn't go up to see, the rest of the places were basically filled with Hextech apprentices who hoped to become the sponsor of the upper family, and all the seats were full.
Tsk, Mrs. Piltover, who is studious, unfortunately, the direction is not quite right, so I just roll hard.Li Weisi shook his head. When he passed by, he glanced at the books and materials in the hands of these apprentices, and noticed some of them were all about Hextech research papers.
I feel that these people are a little dazed, and they are unwilling to research other technological creations except for Hex Technology.
Is it because natural science is not as exciting as HexTech?So intuitive?
Li Weisi was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, indeed, in terms of attracting attention, Hex is indeed technologically advanced, after all, it uses magic technology.
Thinking of this, Levi's somewhat understood the idea of these apprentices specializing in Hex technology—in order to attract the attention of the upper family, is there anything else besides Hex technology?
Steam engine?direct current?Electromagnetic induction?
No, those are revolutionary inventions and discoveries, which are not accessible to ordinary apprentices. In fact, most scientists may not have any major achievements in their lifetime.
Climbing the technological tree is not personal heroism. Without the accumulation of predecessors, you are considered talented, and you can go from inventing the wheel to inventing a controllable nuclear fusion device?
That is obviously impossible. Scientific progress belongs to the brilliance of the collective wisdom of human civilization.
And in the case of insufficient ingenuity to invent decisive technologies, it seems that there is nothing wrong with switching to eye-catching Hex technology.
Although it is a bit of a waste of resources, getting ahead is the dream of most people. It can only be said that those big families are short-sighted, and their eyes are fixed on Hex Technology.
The market determines the supply, and unless someday those big families understand that science is not just a discipline of using hex crystals, otherwise this phenomenon will continue.
Levi touched the pen in his inner pocket, stroked the blank blueprint in his hand, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of expectation and pride—I will let them know that science can be done without Hex crystals. Bloom magnificent brilliance.
Of course, I don’t major in applied physics, applied chemistry, etc., and I don’t know anything about inventing these technologies. I can only provide ideas and ideas. For the specific implementation, I still need to find a reliable Piltover scientist. to do it.
What's more, in order to search for world runes quietly, I can't stand in front of the stage
Otherwise, one day Ryze would kill his lab and it would be too late to run.
Li Weisi wandered around but didn't find any seats, so he was going to try his luck on the corridor on the top floor, thinking in his heart that if the girl was still here today, there should be a vacant seat.
After climbing up the corridor on the top floor along the revolving stairs, I saw the back of the girl from a distance. She was sitting in the previous position, her hair was like a waterfall, peaceful, and the sunlight through the colored windows seemed to bring her into another world. The realm of dreams is beyond reach.
But different from last time, this time the two seats opposite her were filled, leaving only the seat next to her vacant.
I guess it was the hex mechanic apprentice who dared to learn after watching me sit down and do nothing the last time?Li Weisi searched casually, approached, and before he could ask, the girl seemed to know that he wanted to ask.
"You can take a seat here." She raised her head and looked at Li Weisi, a gleam of joy flashed in her ruby-like pure eyes, but it was fleeting, like the aftermath of a clear pool after fallen leaves, quickly dissipating.
Her eyes are like a clear stream that can see to the bottom, without any impurities, and she speaks the same words as when she first met, her voice is as ethereal and ethereal as ever.
Li Weisi didn't notice the subtle emotions flashing in the girl's eyes. Instead, he had an inexplicable illusion. Under the colorful light and shadow, the girl in front of him didn't seem like a human being, but a doll. Those eyes didn't have any emotion, they were real. Two rubies are average.
How can a girl of this age have such an expression in her eyes? Can science make people ruthless?Or are you pretending to be mature?
Well, it's possible, thirteen or fourteen years old is in the second stage of middle school, it's normal to pretend to be cool with a paralyzed face.
"Thank you."
Although he felt strange, Li Weisi did not do too much. He nodded his thanks slightly, and he was not restrained. He directly sat on the seat next to the girl, put away the books and blank drawings in his hand, and began to consult the atlas of mechanical inventions.
Only then did he discover that, apart from the absence of steam engines and electricity in Piltover, in fact some mechanical structures and optics had already reached a very developed state.
He saw that the book records the lens group that can be used for microscopy, the mechanical structure of the glove that can effectively reduce vibration, the small wrench that can deform, and the bridge folding technology of the Sun Gate, which are very comprehensive.
But there is nothing wrong with it, and Levi’s quickly locked in the first invention he wanted to bring to his hometown—the bicycle. Piltover has a four-wheel-drive carriage driven by Hex technology, but no bicycle.
Tsk, I don't think it's driven by Hex crystal, so I look down on the bicycle, right?
Those postmen with sound transmission channels are still running on their legs.Apprentices living in the tailoring area have to travel half of the southern city to work in the Hex Technology Workshop in the workshop area every morning. There is a big market.
Thinking of this, Li Weisi immediately took out a pen from his inner pocket, and wrote and drew on the blank drawings—there were not a few people who were inspired to write and draw design drawings in the library, so they didn't attract attention.
"The chain is a problem. Here it can only be knocked by hand. The cost is higher than expected. Is it possible to make a bicycle and have to make a lathe? There is also the problem of rubber tires. I only know that tires are made of rubber, but how to do it?" You still need to think about it, um, maybe that’s it?”
On the blueprints, Levi used the sketching techniques he learned in elementary school to realistically draw the bicycle in his memory. What he drew was the first car he got. The details are very clear, including the brand LOGO.
And at this moment, a voice sounded beside him, it was a murmur like a quiet voice in the empty valley.
"Is this... about the invention of transportation?"

Chapter 144 Chapter 14 Abi, Shihasha, my Abi (6000)
Li Weisi was immersed in memories and imaginations at this time, and his mind was extremely focused. He never expected that someone around him would look for him, and he was shocked at the first moment.
But it didn't show much, just a slight shake of the hand holding the pen, and the ink smeared a large cloud of ink on the bicycle brand's logo.
Then he subconsciously turned his head to look, and the girl who was sitting next to him reading a book earlier had approached at some point.
Sitting in the delicate mechanical wheelchair, she just turned her face slightly, her eyes were fixed on the manuscript in Levi's hand, her expression didn't change, it was still the same, but there was a clear sense of strong curiosity in her tone.
"You mean this?" Levi asked, pointing to the similarly painted bicycle.
The girl nodded, her ruby-like peach blossom eyes showed curiosity.
"It's not an invention, I can't make this thing, it's just an idea, doesn't it look more like a rough drawing than a blueprint?" Li Weisi shook his head and smiled, he really couldn't make this thing.
The girl slightly frowned her silver eyebrows, and pursed her red lips: "But its design is already very complete, as long as there are accurate numbers
According to the blueprint, or a few times of debugging, any hex mechanic can make it with a little time. "
Li Weisi nodded: "That's right, but I'm just a powerless outsider, and I don't have any connections in Piltover. If I rashly hand it over to others, I'm too relieved. You know, There are many examples of Piltover stealing design achievements."
Li Weisi was first surprised when he found out that someone saw what he drew. Part of his attention was on the people passing by and the people opposite him, but he didn't expect that the girl who seemed to be from a big family beside him would also be interested.
It was not negligence that he drew these design drawings in the library, but he did it on purpose, displaying his goods like setting up a street stall.
If he couldn't attract the hex technicians in the library, then he was going to go to the college area to try, or ask Caitlin to recommend reliable hex technicians who were not afraid of big families snatching the design.
Bicycles are designed to gain trust. The so-called attracting jade is not an important thing.
There are too many technological inventions of Blue Star in my mind. Although a large part of them don't know the specific design, they know the principle, and there is still a chance to restore those technological inventions according to the diagram.
What he imagined was that if this design could attract some powerful Hex mechanics, maybe they could try to cooperate first, make friends, and understand the character of their partners before considering the steam engine.
In fact, Levi had thought about going directly to those big families to cooperate with them before, but considering the greedy and ugly faces of these families in Piltover, it was hard to guarantee that they would not have any wrong thoughts.
The background of the universe on the official website also records that the chief hextech designers of those big families in Piltover snatched the achievements of the newly recruited hextechnicians in the family. Judging from the hints on the official website, such things seem to happen from time to time—at least Victor It was after being robbed of the fruits that they fell into such a field.
Li Weisi was naturally not afraid of their violent snatching, but the moment the conflict happened, he and the most important goal - secretly searching for world rune news in Piltover - gradually drifted away.
It is impossible for me to be an enemy of a city, and I still have the fatal weakness of physical weakness. The assassins of those big families are all experienced and cruel, and if I don't do it, I will fall.
Of course, this situation is the worst future prediction. As long as the head is not kicked by a donkey, normal people would not do this, it is really unnecessary.
He wants to find the most ideal situation, cooperate with a trusted hextech mechanic who can withstand the pressure of the big family, hide behind the scenes to collect money, and the technological changes he brings to Piltover will eventually benefit himself .
