Legends of Runeterra

In Jayce's office, Li En learned a series of detailed data about the Hexgate's transmission rate, transmission energy consumption, the upper limit of the mass of materials that can be transmitted in a single time, etc., and confirmed Jayce's next research direction. After that, Li En gave his affirmation again and left with Heimerdinger.

"Jace, your research direction is sound. Professor, please continue to guide us to correct any flaws in the research process so we can quickly perfect the Hextech Flying Gate."

"Oh~!"

Sitting on a specially raised chair with his furry head visible above the table, Heimerdinger sighed softly.

"Li En, do you really want to do this? You should understand how big a change the Hexgate will bring!"

"Ever since Jace joined the Medarda family, his experimental records have appeared in the Black Rose's intelligence. One of the reasons why Anbesa decided to come to Piltover was to understand the enormous value of Hex Crystal in war.

Do you think the current Hextech Flying Gate can hide from the eyes of the Black Rose and the War Mason?

"..."

Heimerdinger remained silent, but the faces of several laboratory researchers appeared in his mind.

Perhaps their disguise was perfect, but Heimerdinger could easily see through it.

"It's better to open it up than to block it. The more you try to hide it, the more their tentacles will penetrate.

The Twin Cities are the largest shipping hub in Runeterra, so there's no way we can ever isolate ourselves from any infiltration, right?"

"I'm well aware of this, but once the Hexgate is used by Noxus to wage war..."

"You don't have to worry about that."

Li En leaned back in his chair, supporting his head with one hand, a faint smile on his lips.

"Everything is under my control now."

"..."

Heimerdinger stared at Li En quietly for a long time.

“Huh! Okay, I understand.

If you hadn't said these things to me, I would never have agreed to it!"

"Haha~! Thank you for your trust, Professor Heimerdinger."

“I have always witnessed your brilliant soul and the changes you have brought to the Twin Cities.

Li En, I don't know your specific plan, but I hope you will be cautious. If you need help, I can still call some old friends."

"No problem, thank you, Professor."

"Okay, then I won't..."

"Dong dong dong~!"

"Which one?"

"Professor, someone from Midalda is here to visit you!"

"Midalda?"

"I invited him."

When Heimerdinger looked confused, Li En took the initiative to explain, and Professor Yodel nodded.

"Please come in, guest."

"Yes, Professor."

“Crack~!”

The door opened, and a figure even more imposing than the man strode in, his wild gray hair swaying slightly like a lion's mane.

"Lord Li En, Professor Heimerdinger!"

"Embesa!?"

Heimerdinger looked surprised and subconsciously looked at Li En.

"Haha~! Please sit down, General Ambesa."

"Yes, thank you Master Li En."

The rough voice was full of respect. Anbesa sat on the large sofa.

"General Ambesa, has the news of the Hexgate been brought back to Noxus by the War Mason?"

"Yes, Lord Li En, this technology must have appeared on the commander-in-chief's desk by now, and it has been clearly marked in red!"

"very good."

"Li En, you..."

"Don't be so surprised, Professor. You must have heard that I'm from Noxus."

"Of course, but Li En, you..."

Looking at Heimerdinger, who still had a look of surprise on his face but did not show any suspicion or even hostility, Li En knew at a glance that it was just like the style of this man who, despite having such a great reputation, still had not developed any power in Piltover.

This Yodel, who only loves research, has never inquired too much about his own information, and his trust in Li En has always been from the heart.

"Well, let me introduce myself to you again. I'm Lien Reyes, the heir of the Noxian noble Reyes family. I'm 'valued' by the current commander-in-chief and witnessed the establishment of the 'Trifari Council'.

At the same time... he is also one of the leaders in the Black Rose, second only to the leader."

"what!?"

Two unbelievable and deliberately suppressed exclamations rang out in this room where Li En had already set up many barriers.

...

After leaving the Twin Cities Academy of Sciences, Li En and Anbesa rode in the same carriage.

As for the 'Hexpowered vehicle' that Li Enlai had ridden before, he was now following the carriage at a leisurely pace.

“Click, click, click!”

The crisp and rhythmic sound of horse hooves rang out outside the window. In the spacious and luxurious carriage, Anbesa sat respectfully on the soft sofa.

"Haha~! Relax a little, General Ambesa. We are equal partners now, aren't we?"

"Yes, Lord Li En."

Upon hearing this, Anbesa immediately changed her posture slightly. Although she seemed to be a little relaxed, Li En, who had learned the martial arts inherited from the Shuoji Temple, could easily see that the Noxian general's major muscle groups were still slightly tense.

Seeing this, Li En did not force it too much and poured a cup of tea for himself and Anbesa.

"Wow~!"

The faint fragrance of tea rolled in the air along with the curling hot steam, which seemed to slightly break up the somewhat dull atmosphere in the carriage.

"I've witnessed the changes in the Twin Cities during this period. I have to say, General Anbesa, you've accomplished your mission very well."

"Yes, thank you for the compliment, sir."

Anbesa's tense nerves relaxed slightly as she could clearly feel Li En's satisfaction.

"The news of the Hexgate has been passed back. I will return to Noxus next. I hope you can go back with me."

"Yes, Master Li En!"

"Well, very good. As for Gino Medarda, your son, I will make sure he returns to you safely after I return."

"Wow~!"

Obviously, the coachman and the horses driving the carriage are of the best quality, and this top-of-the-line carriage has the best shock absorption, so the interior of the carriage is as stable as a slightly smaller room.

But at this moment, Anbesa, who was holding the teacup, shook her palm, and the scalding tea spilled onto the carpet along her palm, leaving dark marks on the crimson carpet.

"My apologies, Master Li En, I am being rude..."

"Haha~! It's okay, General Anbesa, I understand how you feel.

This is not a threat, but... my promise to you!"

"..."
