"Well, I hope the transfer of personnel will not affect my scientific research plan."
In addition to being worried about this, Heimerdinger can be said to be very sympathetic to Reed's proposal. He also has some ideas about going to Piltover to teach, but that will have to wait until he completes the research at hand.
.
"You don't have to worry about this. By the time the branch is actually opened and professors really need to be mobilized, your scientific research plan will have been completed long ago.
After all, the location of this branch has not yet been determined, and it is still in an imaginary state. I will go to Piltover later to see where there is a suitable location to build a school."
Reed's words relieved Heimerdinger's worries. His "Bandle City Masterpiece" had just been launched, and he definitely didn't want half of the manpower to be taken away at once.
"If you need my help with site selection, just come to the laboratory to find me. Oh, by the way, it may take some time for my laboratory to be rebuilt. You'd better go to the laboratory in the college to find me.
.”
Heimerdinger looked at the ruins of his laboratory. At this time, the blazing flames had been extinguished by the firefighters, leaving only the charred ruins. In fact, the fire was not that lethal, mainly because
Caused by the bombing of Heimerdinger's own weapons.
"emmmm~ I hope you are safe."
Reed sent his most sincere blessings. Although he trusted the yordle people's ability to survive, these scientists who were always crazy about death still made him sweat for them.
"Ha! Don't worry, our experiments are very rigorous. There will never be any problems. There are just some minor accidents occasionally, such as this situation."
Heimerdinger was very confident, although the "little accident" he called it would have been a major experimental accident elsewhere, and it was the kind of accident that would prevent him from having his own independent laboratory in the future.
But one thing Heimerdinger said is not wrong, that is, his scientific research plan was indeed very rigorous, and at least this thing was completely built by him.
The accident occurred during his weapon testing phase, was caused by improper operation, and was completely avoidable.
"Well, as long as you are happy."
Regarding Heimerdinger's confident answer, Reed could only echo it with a fake smile. After all, he had no other way. It was already very difficult for these "crazy" scientists to be able to make scientific research plans reliable.
It's easy, and Reed can't ask for more from them.
After separating from Heimerdinger, Reed returned to the Bandle City City Hall. He wanted to first deal with the government affairs that had accumulated in the past few days. The trivial matters, large and small, could not be reached by him, but could be approved by him personally.
Only matters involving the entire Bandle City planning.
Over the course of more than ten thousand years, Reed has long found a ruling model suitable for the Yodles. These creatures, which do not require much control, will not cause Reed much trouble that needs to be dealt with personally.
"Hmm? Bertrand's letter? Did my elite ranger find anything?"
This time, there are not many things that Reed needs to deal with, only a secret letter sent from Demacia is more important.
Because this was sent by Bertrand, the elite ranger sent by Reed to investigate the demons. Bertrand was born in the Bandle Scout Group and is an older ranger than Teemo. He has won almost all the awards issued by Bandle City.
The only medal left is the easiest to obtain [Smiling Face to Welcome People] medal.
The experienced ranger and his badger bear companions are among the very few yordles worthy of Reed's trust, and Reed has no worries that he will commit the yordle's mistakes.
"Captain Reed personally informed me that in the port city of Dornhold in Demacia, rumors about demons have appeared frequently. Many men have disappeared. When they were found, their flesh and blood had been eaten away. It is not yet certain whether they were replaced by demons.
Those who do this are still the devil who feeds on pain."
The news conveyed in Bertrand's letter made Reed temporarily give up the idea of establishing a branch in Piltover, because dealing with the demons was undoubtedly a higher priority.
Reed was basically certain that the person causing trouble in Dornhold was not the frustrated Vastaya shapechanger, but the original demon that fed on pain.
Because if the ones causing the rebellion are Vastaya shapechangers, then Bertrand will definitely not be able to catch them. After all, Bertrand is the best scout ranger in Bandle City. Even if those Vastaya shapechangers can change
shape, they can't escape Bertrand's pursuit.
Only the demon that was stimulated and formed in the Rune War could prevent Bertrand from finding his trace.
Reed didn't hesitate at all. He left the city hall directly and went to the Gate Passage in the middle of the Bandle Woods. He reached Dornhold through the Gate Passage teleportation gate.
"Evelyn" is the name of that demon. It originated from an extremely ancient era and is some kind of primitive ancient life. It has no form and only has a vague self-awareness.
The spirit born from the shadows existed in a simple state of ignorance at first, and remained numb for hundreds of years, unable to sense or react to any external stimulation.
It might have existed like that until the beginning of the Rune Wars, the catastrophe that rocked the entire Runeterra and brought endless suffering to the world.
So the black shadow was stirred, and the emptiness it had known for a long time was filled with the painful mania and throbbing of the world. It turned into some kind of more advanced creature, it became a demon, one that swallowed the most primitive human emotions.
of devil.
Reed has been hunting her, and she has always wanted to gain Reed's pain, because Reed, who ended the Rune War, is undoubtedly the culprit who made her happiness disappear, but her power cannot resist Reed.
Virtue, so she can only hide in the shadows and grow slowly.
Reed knew that the demon would not give up trying. Although he had beaten her body to the point of almost disappearing more than once, the demon could always hide in the darkness and escape, but she would not give up the idea of tasting his pain.
"roar!"
As soon as Reed came out of the doorway portal, a badger bear rushed towards him, but it didn't want to attack Reed, but gave Reed a bear hug.
This gray-haired badger bear is also a special species in Bandle City. It is already quite old, but it is still strong and capable of tearing apart any enemy.
"Captain, I knew you would come."
Bertrand stood aside, holding a spear in his hand, a sword on his back, wearing leather armor, and important parts covered with Demacia's mithril steel.
