Chapter 212 Hilko: Let’s Bring Down Gorask!

"Where are we going, Iron Man?"

Li Lin: "..."

"Oh ho~~ This is my first time on the top floor of the Screaming Machine, and you don't even need to pay silver coins. You designed this Screaming Machine too, right Iron Man?"

Li Lin: "..."

"Oh, look at the sound of the friction between steam and mechanical gears. It makes me want to sing a song... By the way, Iron Man, do you know the theme song I wrote specifically for myself? I can sing it to you!"

Li Lin clenched his fists, he couldn't bear it anymore.

He originally thought that Dorian, who had not yet become Dr. Mondo, would be normal, but in fact he was no different from his crazy self in the original world line...

And he's also a chatterbox.

As expected of you, even if you go crazy, it will only change your cognition, and even your personality will not change much.

Li Lin took a deep breath and said, "Don't call me Iron Man, just call me... boss."

"Okay Iron Man... eh?" Dorian was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned to look at Li Lin, and suddenly panicked, "Why? You, didn't you say that I can call you Iron Man?"

"Well……"

Li Lin was speechless for a moment and had the urge to slap himself twice.

He just mentioned it casually before, but he didn't expect Dolain to take it seriously.

This is too embarrassing...

After thinking for a while, he patted Dorian on the shoulder: "The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. I feel that I am not worthy of the title of 'hero' now, so... you should call me boss first." Bar."

Dorian scratched his head, looking confused.

He has never received any secondary or higher education, and his educational level is only at the level of being able to read.

What's more, Li Lin used words that can only be understood by people from his hometown on Earth, so Dolainen naturally couldn't understand what he was talking about.

"Then you mean... we can wait until later?"

"...So be it."

At the very least, I want you to change your title now.

As for the future...

Let’s wait until then.

Li Lin thought in his heart.

Dorian became happy again, "No problem, Steel...I mean, boss!"

"By the way, your name is a bit hard to pronounce. Can I give you a name that is convenient for you...or a nickname?"

"Of course! If you want! It would be my pleasure!"

"Yes." Li Lin nodded with satisfaction, "Then... I will call you Mondo from now on."

…

…

More than ten minutes later, a building in the border market was closely guarded by layers of guards and thugs.

Li Lin said hello to the guard and took Mondo to the elevator to the top.

Instructing Mondo to stay outside and not cause trouble, he opened the door and walked straight in.

The room was filled with smoke, and there was a strong smell of cigars.

Hilko held a half-lit fine cigar between the index and middle fingers of his left hand, while his right hand slowly shook a transparent tumbler filled with ice, poured a sip of whiskey into it, and was looking down at some document.

The Hex speaker in the corner of the room played elegant symphony melody, and his office was also connected to the basic power system, replacing the original alchemy technology to generate electricity.

Hearing the sound of the door, Hilko didn't even raise his head, and said in an impatient tone: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?"

Hearing the heavy footsteps, he frowned and said, "You don't understand human language..."

"You are so laid-back, Hilko."

Hearing the familiar voice, Hilko was startled and looked up, "Li Lin?"

Immediately, he put down the wine glass, stuffed the cigar into the ashtray, banged it out a few times and put it out.

"Didn't you go to Nasramei to build the Hex Flying Gate?"

"It seems that your news channels have lagged behind in the past six months. I came back yesterday."

Li Lin walked to Hilko's desk, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"To be precise, that was not the focus of my source."

Hilko put her elbows on the table and crossed her hands to rest on her chin, "Gorask... In the past six months, I have mainly been fighting with her."

"How's the situation?"

"It's not optimistic." Hilko's expression turned cold instantly, "She is much more powerful than I thought."

Li Lin raised an eyebrow, "Is this woman so strong? Can't even defeat you?"

"You still remember that the person she bribed me to steal a bottle of shimmering potion from me before, right?"

Li Lin nodded, and an unpleasant thought suddenly came to his mind.

Immediately afterwards, Hilko's words confirmed his thoughts: "She also improved the shimmering potion, which is different from our direction...

“With the help of your friend from Uptown College, our shimmering potion has weakened its efficacy and has almost no side effects.

"But Gorask didn't care about the side effects at all. She bribed Baron Middenstock and used his technology to let the craftsmen develop a decanter flying device that uses shimmering medicine as fuel.

"The decanter is equipped with a semi-intelligent chip that allows Gorask to control it directly with her mechanical left hand, firing missiles or firing syringes of shimmering potion into her minions.

"Not only that, the shimmering potion in her hand does not castrate the addiction, but also has the effect of affecting the nerves and making people tell the truth."

As he spoke, Hilko's face was as gloomy as ink, "She found most of the men I placed under her influence, usurped their will with a glimmer of light, and forced them to surrender... a plan to infiltrate her influence. was hindered.”

Li Lin's expression was solemn, his fingers were light and regular on the handle of the chair, and he thought for a long time.

"This is bad news... With your strength, you won't just give up."

"Of course." Hilko sneered, "I have already collected a lot of criminal evidence from Gorask Industry, which is enough to send her to Stillwater Prison. It won't be a problem to lock her up for decades..."

"but?"

"As you said before, Gorask's men are in charge of a large amount of property in the lower city. If we rely on law enforcement officers to bring her down and her properties are confiscated by the upper city, I am afraid that it will not only be a problem of people's unemployment... …”

"Zun'an's economy will be even worse and will fall back for many more years." Li Lin knew what he meant and added.

Hilko nodded silently.

"It doesn't matter. I think I can solve this problem."

"Huh?" A trace of surprise flashed across Hilko's face.

"I will establish a relationship with the Piltover Law Enforcement Department through my family's power, and then take over Lenata's factory."

In order to prevent Hilko from misunderstanding, Li Lin explained: "Of course, these factories will not be affiliated to the Gila Mann family, but will be under my personal name. You can rest assured about this."

Hilko fell silent and stared at Li Lin's face with his intact right eye, as if trying to get some clues from his expression or eyes.

It's a pity that despite being stared at by him like this, Li Lin still maintained a polite smile, and even his heartbeat and breathing did not accelerate slightly as before, making him feel nervous.

This little guy is much more mature than he was six months ago...

What on earth did he go through?

Hilko couldn't help but have a question in his heart.

The symphony played by the Hex speaker ended.

Before the next symphony started, Hilko stood up, turned around and walked to the bulletproof floor-to-ceiling colored window behind him.

After giving him some time to think about it, Li Lin also stood up and focused his eyes on Hilko's slightly thin back.

"What? Do you still have any questions? I still have time for now, so just ask whatever you want."

"No, I think your plan is very good." Hilko turned around and smiled: "Let's bring down Gorask together!"
