Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

The style of this tower is very similar to an old-fashioned bell tower. It is about tens of meters high. clockwork technology.

Li Lin's eyes flickered, and he activated "digital thinking" to check the information of this translucent tower:
[Ziran's Clock Tower: The residence of Icathian elemental mage Kieran, the timeline was removed by the time spell, and it is in the crack of time. 】

Sure enough, it's Zilean's tower!

Li Lin's eyes flickered, and when the door slowly opened, he and Kassadin looked inside at the same time.

I saw that the huge hall space was filled with translucent figures of men, women and children, dressed in clothes somewhat similar to those of ancient Shurima.

Their faces were terrified, and their eyes were staring out of the windows of the tower. The movements of their bodies were the subconscious actions of the human body to protect themselves, as if there was something terrifying outside.

However, what is very strange is that even though the brain scan results show that these are living humans with signs of life, they have maintained a movement for too long and ignored the gate of the tower being pushed open.

The ruins of an ancient capital city swallowed by the void can also be regarded as an ancient battlefield, but there are still towers and a group of living people that have been cast with unknown magic? !
so weird...

Kassadin hurriedly took a step forward and grabbed Li Lin's arm, "Li Lin, this place is very weird, don't go in rashly!"

Li Lin didn't speak, but released two drones and asked them to enter the tower to investigate the situation first.

When they just passed the gate, their figures also became as illusory as the tower itself, as if they had escaped into another space that was contrary to reality.

However, unlike Kassadin's imagination, the two drones did not stagnate like those "living people", but were divided into two groups under the control of the intelligent brain, and the two sides of the hall were also crowded with people. Fly to the corridor, scan the inner structure of the tower.

After two or three minutes, when the data information was sent back to the armor interface, Li Lin said to Kassadin: "There is no danger inside, let's go in."

"This place..."

"trust me."

Taking advantage of the strength in Kassadin's hand, Li Lin took the opportunity to step forward and directly broke into the boundary of the tower.

Watching Li Lin's figure gradually merge with the tower and turn into a translucent appearance, Kassadin's heart tightened, and he followed immediately without caring about other things.

With an inexplicable illusion that has gone through countless epochs, the scene in front of Kassadin who followed Li Lin's pace suddenly changed, and everything was condensed into a solid body, which was completely different from the scene seen outside.

There was a serious light in his eyes, "This..."

However, before he could say anything, he heard the sound of mechanical gears rubbing and turning, and the door behind him was gently closed.

Kassadin was taken aback, and immediately called out the blade of the underworld, trying to use the ability to walk through the space through the void, but was horrified to find that he could not tear the space here.

"Li Lin!"

He turned his head and glanced at Li Lin who was still studying the items in the hall calmly. He didn't care about other things, and planned to force open the door with the blade of the underworld first.

Unexpectedly, before he could make a move, Li Lin had already flashed in front of him to stop him.

"Li Lin, this place is weird!" Kassadin shouted, holding up the void stone, "You have been affected!"

Li Lin looked at the excited man in front of him, a little dumbfounded, "I'm to blame for this, I didn't explain it clearly to you."

Then, under Kassadin's astonished gaze, he went straight to the door of the tower, and pulled the door.

Just hearing the friction sound of the same metal gear turning as before, the door was opened again.

Kassadin: "..."

"This pair of gates has an exquisite gravity-pressed plate mechanism, and when people pass by, it will automatically close."

After a little explanation from Li Lin, Kassadin silently retracted the Underworld Blade and the Void Stone, took a deep breath, and let it out again.

"You are still as bold as you were a year ago." He sighed sincerely.

"If you're not bold, how could I have achieved what I am today?"

Li Lin laughed, not planning to continue on this topic, and beckoned to Kassadin to come with him.

"After my observation just now, I found that everything here has fallen into a state of stagnation."

They bypassed the crowded crowd, walked in this reception hall, and soon came to a slightly messy long table specially used for placing food.

I saw a dozen people with terrified faces bumping into somewhere on the table with different movements, their bodies stagnant in the air, and the spilled wine, white fresh milk, and fruits, bread, and meat products that were about to fall to the ground appeared in an unreasonable manner. The way is also frozen in the air, never touching the ground.

After the initial shock, Kassadin, who had adjusted his mentality, was no longer surprised by this kind of scene.

"What happened to this tower?" He couldn't help asking, and turned his gaze to the window above, where swarms of void mosquitoes just flew over. "Those monsters don't seem to be able to find this place."

While he was speaking, Li Lin casually picked up a green apple in mid-air, unfolded his visor and took a bite before Kassadin stopped him. The crisp sound echoed in the quiet space.

Some sour head, but very juicy.

Even after thousands of years, the food here, under the influence of time magic, still maintains the state that they were removed from the timeline.

Perhaps in the original world line, the reason why Kassadin was able to fight alone in Icacia for so long was because of the supplies in this tower.

"You shouldn't..."

"Well, the taste is not bad, do you want to try it? This is a specialty of Icacia."

Li Lin picked up another apple that was stagnant in mid-air, and threw it to Kassadin.

However, the apple can move in the motion of his taking it, and once it is out of his body, it will return to the frozen state of time.

No matter how hard you use it, you can't throw it out, completely ignoring the laws of physics.

Newton had to shake his head when he came.

Li Lin shrugged his shoulders to express his helplessness, grasped the apple that had stopped when it left his fingertips again, walked a few steps to Kassadin, and handed it to him.

"Oh, forget it." Kassadin sighed, stared at the apple for a long time, and put it on the table, "I'm not hungry now."

Afterwards, he looked directly at Li Lin who had finished eating the apples and threw the cores into the bottle on the table, "What happened here?"

According to previous drone scans and calculations of the tower, there are at least 1 people hiding in this huge building.

The vast majority of them are humans, and a small part of the native Icacia that Yordles, Vastaya, and Kassadin hate, the troll-like people that should have been extinct.

They are likely to be the survivors of Icacia that was swallowed by the void.

"Have you heard of time magic?" Li Lin's words brought Kassadin's thoughts back to reality.

"Time... magic?" Kassadin made a puzzled voice, "Is there such magic?"

He still remembered the types of magic that Li Lin had popularized with him in the Shurima Mausoleum, including astral magic, arcane rune magic, and elemental magic.

What the hell is magic at this time?

"Time magic, to be precise, should be considered a type of elemental magic..."

Li Lin paused for a moment, and suddenly thought that his understanding might not correspond to reality.

"Or it's the product of the combination of elemental magic and astral magic." He added.

"As the name suggests, time magic is the magic of manipulating time, but throughout the ages, there have been almost no mages who can penetrate the mysteries of time... er, almost none."

"A mage who can completely control such a large tower and the people inside, and who can cast such powerful time magic, must be at least at the level of a grandmaster... No, I'm afraid the grandmaster can't do this either."

Thinking of this, Kassadin couldn't help taking a breath, "Although we don't know if the owner of this tower is still there, we shouldn't stay here for too long."

Li Lin froze for a moment, and quickly realized what he wanted to express.

Although Icacia is a vassal state of Shurima, generations of Icacia have held a strong hatred for Shurima.

Just now Kassadin showed the blade of the underworld that contains the power of the gods. If the master who cast the time magic is still alive, and that guy is an Icacia, it will definitely be bad for them.

Li Lin laughed dumbfounded, and waved his hands, "I know what you're thinking, you don't have to worry."

Kassadin raised his eyebrows, but since he said so, the man who knew he was extraordinary still chose to believe him.

"Let's go, let's go to the Zangshu Pavilion above. Maybe there are some ancient archives here that can help us."

Afterwards, Li Lin and Kassadin activated the anti-gravity device of the battle armor, passed through the almost crowded corridor, and walked along the spiral stairs on the side of the tower to the drone photographed just now. There are many bookshelves and thousands of books. museum.

The quicksand that fell from the top due to the impact hovers in mid-air, and the various magic discs used for lifting and lowering are of different shapes, forming a strange picture together with the books scattered all over the sky.

Kassadin casually took out a book on the shelf at hand and opened it to check, and found that it was written in ancient Shurima.

He knew most of the ancient Shurima language, which he had learned while exploring the ruins of ancient tombs, and he could easily see that this book was an introductory teaching for mage apprentices.

"Since Icathia was conquered by Shurima, the Emperor of the time made the country have the same text and the same track as the Book of Shurima.

"After 900 years of development, Icacia's culture has basically been assimilated by Shurima, but unfortunately the anger in the Icacia people's chest has never dissipated."

Li Lin shook his head, reached out and dispatched more than a dozen drones to scan the contents of the books, and then uploaded them to the data terminal of Zhinao.

There are so many books, even if his brain is a supercomputer, he doesn't know that he will see the Year of the Monkey and the Moon after reading each book, not to mention there is a lot of useless information in it.

It is the best choice to let the brain to count and record.

It didn't take long for the drone to reintegrate into Li Lin's armor, and he let the brain start to sort out the data, and then made a report for himself, but found no record of time-related magic.

Li Lin raised his head and glanced upwards, but he was wondering why Kieran hadn't shown up after he had been here for so long.

"It seems that we can continue to go up here." He said to Kassadin, and then flew up first.

In two breaths, he entered from a corridor that was more quaint and different from the outside world.

But as Li Lin went deeper, the voices in his ears became more and more illusory, and even the sound of Kassadin's footsteps behind him and the energy supply sound of the armor's energy core gradually disappeared.

The corridor seemed to be infinitely elongated, and after walking an unknown number of steps, he suddenly felt light all over his body, as if he had shaken off some heavy burden.

Raising his hand again, Li Lin found that the battle armor on his body had disappeared, replaced by a set of clothes similar to those worn by the ancient Icathians in the tower.

He tilted his head, and didn't feel too much panic in his heart. He glanced forward and backward respectively.

This not-so-spacious corridor has not changed in any way, except that the figure of Kassadin following him is missing.

This is no longer the original world he was in.

Li Lin didn't stay for too long. He continued to walk forward to the end of the corridor and turned a corner. He noticed a single wooden door a dozen steps away.

When he walked to the door, the door opened automatically, and a male voice that sounded older came from the house:

"You finally came."
