Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 32 Orianna Levick

Poisoning?

sleepy?
lethargy?

Combined with the inexplicable fragrance that I just smelled...

Your cute Lilia is coming to Piltover, isn't she? !

Li Lin's face was very ugly. He didn't expect that someone would dare to attack even the Evolution Day Conference.

He is very clear that he is not the target, because now except for Heimerdinger who knows that he invented the Hex energy crystal, other families only know that he invented the generator.

What's more, he hasn't given a speech yet, and to most people, he's just a nobody.

Since the target is not yourself...

Li Lin supported a tree next to him, forced his tired body up, and looked towards the auditorium that was still full of people.

Caitlyn, Jess, and the Gilamans are all in there...

Suddenly, Li Lin's eyes widened, and Caitlin's background description flashed in his mind:

During one of her evolutionary days when she was young, she came home to find all the servants in the house had been killed and her parents were missing.

After going through many difficulties, Caitlin, who has the talent of "Detective", finally found her parents in the laboratory of the rival family.

As for the murderer behind the scenes who planned all this, she only found out the code name whose initials were "C".

This happened for many years, until Caitlin, who became a detective, helped the Piltover Police solve many major cases and was recommended as the sheriff of Piltover. She still didn't find out who this so-called "C" was...

After the last kidnapping and the Gilamann family's use of this to solve a rival family, Li Lin thought that this matter was just exposed.

But with the time point of Evolution Day, the target of the attackers is likely to be the Gilaman family!
Damn!

Could it be the butterfly effect that I traveled through, causing the world line to change?
Recently, I have been concentrating on researching Hex crystals and power armor, and I have ignored these things...

Li Lin gritted his teeth, clenched his fist and slammed the tree beside him.

But as soon as this thought came to him, he threw it behind him.

Now is not the time to complain, there are more important things to solve right now.

Li Lin focused entirely on the system prompt in his mind.

According to the prompt on the panel, there are still more than ten seconds before he falls into a "sleep" state.

He had to find a way to wake himself up when he fell asleep.

Li Lin hurriedly checked the entries for the "sleepy" and "sleepy" debuffs:
[Drowsiness: Falling into a state of extreme sleepiness, thinking reaction speed drops by 70%, body reaction speed drops by 50%. 】

[Drowsiness: complete loss of consciousness, falling into deep sleep (can be awakened by external force). 】

When he saw "can be awakened by external force", a little hope suddenly appeared in his heart.

Although there were no outsiders around, he thought of a way - throwing stones.

It happened that the status bar of the panel indicated that there was a countdown from "drowsy" to "sleep" in seconds.

If you throw a stone into the sky at the last second, just when you fall asleep and fall to the ground, the stone hits yourself and wakes you up.

It's just that there may be some bleeding and injury.

But in the face of the system's digitalized health, even gunshot wounds can heal extremely quickly, and being hit by a stone can be said to be painless.

Quickly think about what to do next, there are only a few seconds left to enter the "sleep".

Li Lin hurriedly picked up a palm-sized stone from the side of the road, making sure that he would feel enough pain when it hit him later.

Afterwards, Li Lin activated the [Data-based Thinking] skill to accurately calculate the strength he needed, the time and location of the stone falling.

However, the idea is very beautiful, but in reality there are always various accidents.

When there were only three seconds left in the time, Li Lin was about to throw the stone in his hand, and a strange fragrance wafted in the air again.

"Oops..." Before Li Lin could react, his consciousness became blurred for a while, and his weak hands could no longer hold the stone.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes went dark, his whole body instantly softened, and he fell to the ground with a "plop".

……

……

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Li Lin, who was in a coma, heard someone pushing his body.

"Sir... sir, wake up!"

It sounded like a girl's voice, but strange.

what happened?
What's wrong with me……

Li Lin only felt the pain in his head as if it had been split by a knife, and his body was limp and without any strength.

"Wake up, sir, you can't sleep here!"

Under the call of the girl, Li Lin's consciousness gradually returned.

He slowly opened his heavy eyelids, and in the dark environment, the blurry world in front of him gradually returned to normal.

Li Lin looked blankly at the source of the sound.

It was a girl who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old.

She wore light makeup, and was wearing a delicate white evening dress. Her tan shoulder-length hair was tied behind her head with a hairpin, and her pair of sapphire blue eyes were full of worry.

Like an elf walking out of a fantasy.

The girl knelt beside Li Lin, and patted his face with a cold and tender hand.

Seeing that he finally opened his eyes, the girl couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "The gears are turning! You're finally awake, sir!"

Li Lin's head was still a little confused, "You... are you?"

"My name is Orianna Levik. I just found you lying on the path in the woods when I was wandering around the campus."

Orianna... clockwork? !

Li Lin stared at the girl's blue pupils for a long time.

In the current timeline, hasn't Orianna been transformed into a mechanical body due to illness?
Seemingly embarrassed by Li Lin's straightforward eyes, Orianna's face flushed slightly, she staggered to meet his eyes, pouted her small cherry pink mouth, and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Sir, since you're drunk, don't hang out outside, sleeping here in winter, not only your relatives and friends will worry about you, but you will also get sick.

She paused, and continued: "I think you should also come to participate in the Evolution Day Conference? How about I send you to find your relatives or friends?"

Li Lin drank a lot of wine while socializing.

Although the degree is not high, there is still a faint smell of alcohol on his body.

Therefore, Orianna concluded that he should be drunk and wanted to come out to get some air, but accidentally slept outside.

"I'm not here drunk..."

With the help of Orianna, Li Lin struggled to sit up, and pressed his hands on the swollen temples a few times.

I'm...why did I faint?

The broken memory fragments were reassembled, and Li Lin recalled everything that happened before, "Poisoning... yes!"

He was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Orianna's shoulder, "How long have I been unconscious here?!"

Orianna was taken aback by Li Lin's actions, "I, I just came here too... At least it should have been 5 minutes since I saw you..."

"5 minutes..." Li Lin's pupils shrank slightly, and he stood up hastily.

It's just that there are still some toxins left in his body, and he hasn't fully recovered.

He just took a step, but his legs and feet gave way, and he almost fell to the ground again.

Fortunately, Orianna quickly helped him, "Sir! Are you alright?"

"No……"

Li Lin waved his hand and glanced at his personal status bar:

[Personal Status: Paralyzed]

[Effect: Temporary loss of part of the perception and motor function, lasting for 10 minutes. 】

Damn!

Li Lin cursed inwardly, then looked sideways at Orianna, and hurriedly asked, "Did you come out of the auditorium? Did anything happen inside?"

"Huh?" Orianna was taken aback by the question, then shook her head, "No, I think it's too boring inside, I came out to wander around the campus more than half an hour ago..."

Seeing Li Lin's serious expression, she couldn't help becoming nervous when she thought of her father in the auditorium, "Did something happen?"

"I don't know yet." Li Lin exhaled heavily, "But Miss Li Weik, I need your help urgently."
