Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

Li Lin spent the afternoon shopping with Caitlin, buying a bunch of miscellaneous things and all kinds of beautiful clothes.

A few days later, Miss Gila Mann's 18th name day arrived.

Since last night, the whole Gillamann family has been busy, just for this extremely important day.

But in fact, it is not so much a coming-of-age ceremony as a social dance for the Gila Mann family to build relationships.

Not only the Gila Mann family, but every upper-class family would choose to hold such a dinner when their descendants turn 18.

Such dinners often become a platform for young men and women from major families to socialize and date each other.

According to Piltover tradition, coming-of-age ceremonies are generally divided into four stages:

The head of the host family delivers a speech, the elders of each family give blessings and gifts, peers give blessings and gifts, and finally the dinner and dance begins.

The most important stages are the last two stages.

If a descendant of a family or this family is interested in the protagonist of the coming-of-age ceremony, then this family will invest in purchasing the most expensive gift for him to give away.

When this session is over, all the family elders who participated in the coming-of-age ceremony need to exit the auditorium, leaving the next time to the younger generations.

At this time, the protagonist of this coming-of-age ceremony needs to dance the first ballroom dance with the person of the opposite sex who has given the most expensive gift, regardless of dislike or liking.

If the protagonist is a man, he needs to be a polite gentleman to invite the woman to dance. If the protagonist is a woman, he needs to accept the other party's invitation.

After the first dance, which is watched by everyone, is the time to socialize with peers, build relationships with the family, and invite dances to the person of your choice.

If the protagonist of the coming-of-age ceremony also likes the party who gave the most expensive gift, he can refuse all subsequent invitations from the opposite sex.

But if you don't like the person you want to dance with for the first time, you can freely invite or accept a ballroom dance from another person of the opposite sex to show your attitude.

Li Lin felt that this traditional coming-of-age ceremony was very strange, but there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, you have to do as the Romans do...

But he couldn't bear to see Caitlin dancing with another member of the opposite sex, so gifts became a problem.

After all, she is the only daughter of the top-ranked Gila Mann family in Piltover, and Caitlin's beauty is known to almost the entire northern city.

Therefore, whether they really have a crush on her or they covet the status of the Congressman's family, there will definitely be many people who want to climb high.

They may come from small families or from other top families.

In any case, Li Lin's current connections alone are definitely not as good as those of the veteran members of the family.

They always have various channels to get weird and rare treasures, and the gifts Li Lin can buy with money are only the best in Pi City.

Unless he asked Mrs. Karina for help, Li Lin felt that she would not help him.

A small craftsman who is attached to the Giraman family and wants to get a high position with the congressman's daughter...

Li Lin had already thought about the scene where Mrs. Karina would "humiliate" him if he really did this.

Fortunately, the 1125 blue essence he had saved before was not spent. This "money" can be used to purchase a more expensive magic item in the [Essence Store].

Giving gifts is a science.

First of all, you need to study what the recipient of the gift actually likes, and on this basis, choose a gift that is both affordable and consistent with his or her status.

In other words, the gift you give should not only depend on its value, but also the appropriate appearance according to the occasion and the recipient's wishes.

For example, Caitlin doesn't like gems, jewelry and other items.

But on such a coming-of-age ceremony, Li Lin couldn't give her another one of her favorite sniper rifles, right?

This is inconsistent with etiquette, shows no emotional intelligence, and may even cause the Giramann family to lose face.

There are many good things for Li Lin to choose from in the [Essence Store].

He struggled for a long time, and finally selected an item that was most suitable for Caitlin and that was absolutely unmatched by others:

A fuchsia heart-shaped crystal gemstone pendant.

[Eliza's Miracle (Epic): According to legend, in addition to climbing Mount Targon, those who have the most devout faith in the Titans and Stars will also receive blessings from the stars, as is the case with Eliza. 】

[Attributes: 1000 health, 1500 mana, restores 5 health and 10 mana per second, 30% spell power. 】

[Ability Effect]

【passive】

[Eliza's Piety: All effects of this equipment are only valid for women. 】

[Star Ruby: Provides an additional 2000 health points and 2000 mana points. 】

[Insight into the mind: The wearer can see through the minds of ordinary people (only available to mages). 】

[Unyielding Will: The wearer's spirit and will will not be affected by negative magic. 】

[Astral Blessing: When suffering fatal damage, it provides a layer of astral magic shield with 100% of the maximum health, which can withstand all types of damage. It lasts until the battle is over. If the magic shield is broken, the wearer's all health will be restored immediately. of health and mana (cooldown time: 7 days). 】

[Miracle from the Stars: When the wearer dies, the equipment will shatter, injecting resurrecting vitality into the wearer and restoring all health and mana. 】

The properties of this piece of equipment are so abnormal that it is equivalent to providing the wearer with two extra lives, and it only sells for 925 blue essences.

If it weren't for the fact that it was only effective for women, Li Lin would have bought it for himself.

Of course, giving this piece of equipment as a gift to Caitlin is still a very good choice.

After all, she is an ordinary person, and she is engaged in a relatively dangerous industry.

Although Caitlin's nemesis C is dead in the background, Li Lin is still worried about her safety.

This piece of equipment can solve the worries in his heart very well. This 925 Blue Essence Flower doesn't bother him at all.

It was already afternoon, and Caitlin's coming-of-age dinner would begin shortly.

After Li Lin carefully selected a suitable gift box, he put [Eliza's Miracle] in it and temporarily locked it in the Hex Treasure Box.

Afterwards, he went into the bathroom and took a hot bath very carefully, and then put on the tuxedo that Mrs. Karina had tailor-made for him, with the Gila Mann family crest sewn on it, in white and brown-red colors.

Just as he was fixing his hair in front of the mirror, there was a knock on his door.

Li Lin knew it was Caitlin outside without opening the door. This was her unique habit of knocking on the door.

"I'm coming……"

As soon as he opened the door, the familiar fragrance of violets hit his face.

Caitlin's hair was still wet, as if she had just taken a shower.

She was wearing cool casual clothes, with her flawless snow-white legs downwards, a pair of small and exquisite feet without socks in summer sandals, her toes close together curled up from time to time, with pink and white crescents, and carefully constructed Nails are crystal clear.

It wasn't time yet, so she didn't put on her evening dress yet.

"Li Lin!"

As soon as the door opened, Caitlin eagerly pushed past him and squeezed in.

Then, she turned around, closed the door and locked it, with a mysterious expression.

The fragrance on Caitlin's body kept teasing Li Lin's nerves. He quickly calmed down and said in surprise: "...What are you doing?"

"What kind of gift have you prepared for me tonight?" She blinked and looked at Li Lin. "Are you not prepared?"

"How is that possible?" Li Lin smiled, "If I don't tell you now, I won't let you down anyway."

Caitlin shook her head with an unhappy expression, "As long as you give it to me, I won't be disappointed no matter what... But that's not what I want to say.

"I heard from my mother that a young man from the Medalda clan will prepare an expensive gift for me tonight. I'm afraid your gift won't be as good as his..."

She paused and continued: "I used the money I earned from handling cases in the past few months and my pocket money to secretly entrust the housekeeper to prepare a gift. You can use this from me tonight..."

Hearing what Caitlin said, Li Lin couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

It seems like she still cares about me...

"Do you really want to dance with me?" He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said in a teasing tone.

"Fuck you, I'm serious, okay?" Caitlin stretched out her slender green fingers and poked Li Lin's cheek dissatisfied, "Do you really want me to dance with another man?"

Li Lin gently grabbed her little hand that was about to retract, "Of course not."

Caitlin couldn't free her hand from his large, strong grasp.

The warmth of the big and small hands intertwined made her blush, and her heart suddenly became confused.

"You, please let me go quickly..."

Li Lin shook his head and gradually moved his head closer to Caitlin.

"You, what are you doing!" She looked flustered and said in a slightly hoarse voice.

Facing the face that was getting closer and closer, Caitlin wanted to step back, but her back was already pressed against the cold wall.

With no way out, her face turned as pale as a ripe red apple, and she could even clearly feel Li Lin's warm breath on her cheeks.

Since it was the first time she faced this kind of scene, and she was still facing Li Lin, Caitlin's mind went blank. She really didn't know what to do, so she had to give up and close her eyes.

However, the scene she imagined did not happen.

Li Lin just leaned into her ear and said: "Believe me, no one's gift can compare to mine... Also, are you expecting something?"

"you!"

Hearing this, Caitlin opened her eyes angrily, but what she saw was Li Lin with a smirk on his face, and his face was suddenly covered in sullenness.

Then, she pushed the young man in front of her away, covered her hot cheeks, opened the door and ran out.

"I hate you so much!"

The plot of the Twin Cities in the first volume has ended. In the next volume, the map will be changed to Shurima.
