I'm in Demacia, I just became a mage

"That's it, congratulations, Katz." Levi said with a smile, "What kind of ceremony is that?"
"Hmm, the scariest adventure in the world! We're going to—" Katz was about to say when another girl ran by.
"Kates! We're leaving!"
"Jane, I just made a friend from uptown. This is Watson. Wait, Jane!"
This girl is about 15 years old, maybe not. She is not tall, has short brown hair, and looks ordinary. There is a small scar on the left side of her face. There is no innocence between her eyebrows and eyes, but a little cruelty.
She wore tattered clothes that glistened with black oil, and goggles with broken lenses and brass frames twisted on her head.
The girl looked a little annoyed, she glared at Levi, grabbed Katz's thin arm and dragged her away, saying: "Uptown people can never be our friends, Katz Ci, he must have a purpose!"
"Watson is different from those Piltovers!" Katz tried his best to break free from Jane's shackles, but Jane's hands grabbed her like iron clamps.
She struggled for a while and found it was useless, so she had no choice but to give up, and waved to Li Weisi: "Watson, let's see you next time!"
Levi nodded and waved his hand.
Afterwards, Jane and Cates ran and disappeared from Levi's sight.
Children like Lanxing should study in a bright and spacious campus.Levi thought subconsciously as he watched the street corner where the two girls disappeared, and then shook his head slightly.
Even Blue Star still has billions of people struggling on the poverty line...
This is probably fate.
Li Weisi sighed, and had no plans to help these trench orphans.
If you see one, help one. There are so many trench orphans in Zaan, how can we help them?
The generation of these trench orphans is a social problem in Zaun and Piltover, and it cannot be solved by one person alone. The first is funds, and the second is energy.
Even if these problems are solved, there is one more important thing - if Piltover's exploitation of Zaun cannot be eliminated, and the order of Zaun cannot be rebuilt, everything will be nothing.
You helped one today, and tomorrow there will be more people in need.
Helping everyone involves...revolution.
Li Weisi didn't have such a great ideal, and he didn't think he had the ability to lead the revolution. After all, grasping people's hearts was the prerequisite for being a leader.
But even gods dare not peek into people's hearts, let alone themselves.
What's more, before there is not enough power to protect the fruits of victory, it is really useless to start a revolution in Runeterra.
Li Weisi sees these things very clearly, so his goal is also very clear. The farther goal is to find more world runes and protect the one he loves.
The immediate goal is to complete Mr. Chalin's commission.
There is also a kind Piltover girl waiting to be rescued by herself.
Being poor means being alone, and Li Weisi clearly understands that he is not yet qualified to be full of love, so for these strange little waifs, there may be something based on conscience and good upbringing.
sympathy, but will not help them.
What's more, not everyone is worthy of help from others, such as the man named Frydes.
Li Weisi has always seen clearly between sensibility and rationality.
He shook his head, bought a ticket, turned around and went to the top floor through the corridor on the side of the Hex pressure conveyor.
There is also a reason for Levi's choice to go to the top floor instead of the bottom floor. He is in a spirit state and can be easily spotted in the crowded environment of the lower floor.
But the upper layer of the pressure conveyor is different. There are some rich people here, and everyone keeps a safe distance from each other.
So there's no need to save money by risking a mess.
The ticket price is much higher than the cost of passing the Piltover Bridge. It needs 60 copper rings, but this is the ticket for the highest level. Levi has checked the fare list, and the lowest level only needs [-] copper rings.
And considering that the pressure conveyor is driven by Hex crystals, and the consumption of such a huge project, it is actually very cheap.
The internal structure of the pressure conveyor is very simple, with an extremely thick and stable steel column acting as a support at the center of the pressure conveyor, surrounded by four-story corridors for loading guests.
The lower space inside the Hex pressure conveyor was quickly filled with people, and the uppermost level where Levi's was was also crowded with many people.
At this point in time, there is quite a lot of traffic, businessmen traveling to and from the Twin Cities, rich people from Piltover who go to the Zaun dance corridor area to have fun, and some Zaun people who work in Piltover, etc.
Levi's found a place near the window inside the pressure conveyor and waited for the conveyor to start.
And just when he looked down at the bottom of the patio, he suddenly found some suspicious shadows appeared at the mouth of a pipe for unknown purpose on the lower floor of the patio.
So Li Weisi drew a simple rune in the void under the cover of the gray fog - farsightedness.
Then, while people weren't paying attention, he threw this small unobtrusive rune with a dim violet light out of the Hex pressure conveyor, and controlled it to fly around the mouth of the pipe.
This is one of the runes that he initially learned to use during the more than two months spent on the ship. It is a simple rune that looks like an eye made of only two arcs.
The effect is also very simple, Levi can see the surrounding situation through the runes - including things hidden in the shadows.
Some are similar to drones.
When the runes arrived at the bottom of the courtyard, where the suspicious figures were located, Li Weisi was shocked to find that there were a group of children crowded in the pipes below the courtyard. There were about five or six children, male and female.
Their mouths open and close at high frequency, making one imagine they are talking noisy and excitedly.
Levi even saw the two girls whom he saw just now, Jane and Katz, from their figures.
You must know that the bottom of the patio is in the middle of the cliff without any shelter, and it is several hundred meters away from the nearest urban area in Zaun.
Levi was a little puzzled, what are they doing in such a dangerous place?
He suddenly remembered the ritual that Katz had said, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Just when Levi was wondering, Katz seemed to have discovered the rune floating not far from the mouth of the pipe, and she pulled Jane to point to the location of the rune.
was discovered?Li Weisi casually removed the supply of magic power to the runes, and the runes suspended in the air suddenly turned into dots of starlight and dispersed.
At this time, the sharp and piercing siren sounded, and the Hex pressure conveyor began to descend slowly.
He also quickly learned what these trench orphans were thinking.
-------------------------------------
"Huh, huh, are you ready?"
Jane tightly grasped the edge of the pipe, panted heavily, and looked up at the Hex pressure conveyor in the center of the patio above her head. When she saw those collapsible steel bridges starting to retreat, she immediately shouted. stand up.
"The scream is coming!"
Screaming is what the kids in Zaun call the Hex Pressure Elevator because of its screeching and piercing whistle.
"Wuhu~hahaha!" Finn stood at the very edge of the pipe and looked down, with a lunatic smile on his dirty face. He was wearing intact goggles, and he was also holding on to the edge of the pipe tightly. .
The strong wind from Zaun swept over, ripping up his patched clothes and messy hair, and making the boys and girls behind him howl with excitement.
Screaming is one of the many rituals that children of Zaun undergo.
Other rituals include climbing to the top of the Old Hunger Clocktower with all fours, finding a minion of an alchemy baron to cut a purse, teasing a ditch scavenger on stilts, and more.
The rituals are endless and sinister, but the only way to prove that you're a street kid to mess with.
Only in this way can these boys and girls who lost their parents and grew up in orphanages get some qualifications to show their teeth and claws.
At least people will know that you are a desperate street kid, and they have to weigh it when they bully you.
All Zaunites know full well that in street brawls and gang brawls, it's the street kids you need to watch out for the most, because they tend to be the toughest.
From their reactions, it can be seen that this is not the first time to pick up the screeching whistle—otherwise, how did they come up here?
"Kates, don't be afraid, it's like morning
As always, jump on it boldly, and you'll be fine. While staring at the Hex pressure lift above, Jane comforted Katz beside her.
Jane was really worried about Katz. Today was the first time she picked up the whistle, and she almost had an accident when she came here in the morning. Fortunately, she grabbed her hand, otherwise she might have lost her.
"Jane, don't worry, I have succeeded."
Katz smiled calmly, his pure and clear purple eyes overlooked the city of Zaun hundreds of meters below, and he felt like he was being grabbed by an invisible big hand.
And at this moment, Katz's wandering eyes suddenly caught a strange thing - a glowing... text?
Katz curiously observed the mid-air less than ten meters away, where a very simple pattern blooming with dim violet light was floating there, looking like an eye.
It's the elf from Mama Elodie's story!
Cates stared at the glowing text and thought in amazement, she pulled Jane's hand: "Jane, look over there!"
"how?"
At this moment, Jane was focusing on the Hex pressure elevator that was about to start. Hearing Katz's voice, she subconsciously followed her guidance and frowned slightly: "There is nothing."
"No, there was one just now, the luminous elf! I promise!" Katz was eager to explain, when a sharp and piercing whistle came from above.
"Here we come!" Jane yelled, and Katz hurriedly looked at the slowly descending Hex pressure lift. She swallowed and began to breathe rapidly.
Soon, the Hex pressure lift was almost completely lowered down the patio, and the circular platform on the top of the cockpit had dropped below the pipe opening where Katz and the others were.
A boy of about 14 stood up, leaned out and looked down.
Then he grinned back, gave a thumbs up, bent his knees, and threw himself out of the patio pipe.
"Haha!" Finn laughed wildly and followed closely behind.
"Kates, I'll wait for you over there!" A boy who was the same age as Katz smiled shyly, and then nimbly jumped onto the top platform of the pressure elevator cockpit.
In the end only Katz and Jane were left,
"Don't look down, you can do it!" Jane patted Katz on the shoulder, "I'll show you a demonstration, watch!"
She squatted down slightly, made a gesture of accumulating strength, and then slammed onto the Hex pressure lift, then turned to look at Katz who was standing alone at the entrance of the pipe, and shouted: "Kates, hurry up!"
Cates gasped, feeling her heart pounding like a pneumatic hammer was pounding her ribs.
You can do it, you can do it!
She kept saying to herself in her heart, took a few steps back, and ran up suddenly, but her footsteps hesitated when they reached the edge of the pipe opening, so the ground where they landed disappeared.
A few hundred meters below is the city of Zaan, and there is only air between the familiar city and her.
An unspeakable terror seized Katz's heart suddenly, and emptied her lungs like a blacksmith's vise.
She found that she was tumbling and falling to the city of Zaun hundreds of meters below, her limbs couldn't help dancing like windmills, as if she could learn to fly like the shrike on the cliff.
She looks down.
