Zaun Black Alley.
Today's dark alleys have also been remodeled.
Of course, the transformation is only the environment, such as adding green plants and road renovation.
As for the architecture, it is still the same 'cyberpunk' style as in the past.
Although the walls are still like iron patches, all the buildings have been redesigned by the designer.
Even if it looks like a poor kiln at first glance, but if you look closely, you can find a different kind of beauty from the buildings in the dark alley.
Cyberpunk style, that represents the breath of freedom.
Not only can you find nostalgic feelings from that style, but you can also feel the development of science fiction.
The two styles complement each other and complement each other, making this environment extremely comfortable and relaxing.
Vander's Tavern is still the center of Dark Lane.
Here, it has become a gathering place for those heroes with strange shapes.
For example, Zach and Tucci on Zaun's side, they spend most of their time in the bar after their daily work and games.
There is also a psychiatrist named Mundo.
He's a doctor and a psycho himself.
Mundo was originally a third-rate doctor who could only deal with trauma.
Many doctors like Mundo lost their jobs when the people of Zaun began to receive the enhancement of 'Optimized Shimmer Elixir'.
The other doctors chose to look for other jobs, but Mundo did not.
He got a bunch of alchemy potions here and there, intending to imitate Singed to invent another strengthening potion.
So Mondo taught himself alchemy for a few years, and then fused all kinds of messy alchemy potions.
He used himself as a test subject again.
As a result, his head was burned by the alchemy potion!
He becomes a psychopath and fantasizes that his potion has been invented.
Mundo became the dangerous and terrifying undead doctor in the original fate line.
He once set off a panic in Zaun.
In the end, Zach and Tucci teamed up to find it out.
But Mundo's symptoms cannot be treated at all, and in the end, Mundo bumped into Vi's hand during a prison escape.
Wei punished him severely on the spot, but ended up defeating Mundo.
Since then, Vi's order has become the sacred decree in Mundo's heart, and Mundo only listens to Vi alone.
And under Vi's orders, Mundo was offered a job at Zaun's felon prison.
He can vent his desire to heal people in prison.
Normally, he appears to be very honest, and like Tucci and Zack, he often hangs in Van der's bar.
In addition to them, there are several heroes from other regions who are resident in the bar.
For example, Cassiopeia, for example, another mutant of Black Rose-Spider Queen Elise.
For this reason, LeBlanc simply opened a branch in the tavern after communicating with Van der.
In addition to them, there are often other problem children in the tavern.
For example, Jie, the founder of the Ionian Shadow Stream sect.
And Trundle, king of trolls in the Freljord of the North.
There's even Amumu, the mummy of Shame from Shurima, and Creighton, the crocodile ascendant who's a little out of his mind.
Unanimously, dangerous elements from various countries and regions regard Vander's bar as their main activity center.
They also made trouble.
Unfortunately, next door to the bar is Cowen's repair shop.
Cowen cleaned up those dishonest problem children several times, and later, he made a rule for Vander's bar.
Under that rule, everyone in that tavern turned into the physical fitness of an ordinary person, and all the extraordinary power on their bodies was also sealed away.
As the owner of the bar, Van der has been greatly strengthened in the bar.
In this way, those problem children gradually stopped making trouble.
In short, the black alley is still the concentration of prohibited items, and it still has a slightly filthy style.
But here is very peaceful, and it seems to be a haven for all monsters to find peace.
As for Kewen's repair shop, five years have passed, but there has been little change in the repair shop.
The only thing that has changed is the exterior of the house.
In order not to look special, the exterior walls of the repair shop were also decorated in a unified style, turning into a cyberpunk style.
Nothing else has changed, the interior is still the same.
As for the business issue, it has gotten better.
After all, Kewen's technical strength and reputation are there. Gradually, the repair shop has been widely known by all participating heroes.
Now, almost all the contestants will regard Kewen's repair shop as the first choice. Whenever the equipment is damaged or needs maintenance, they will choose Kewen's here.
Of course, Cowen's reputation also passed through the heroes back to the country behind them.
This led to Cowen getting a lot of solicitations.
Even Noxus had the cheek to come here, and the recruiter they sent was Katarina, who had assassinated Kewen back then.
This made Ke Wen a little dumbfounded, but he didn't take the assassination of the other party to heart, but refused the solicitation again.
As a result, this made Katerina a little bit overwhelmed.
In the days to come, Katerina would come to the repair shop to stay for a while, and tried almost all kinds of solicitation methods, even seduction.
As a result, Katrina still failed.
Today, because Katerina was chatting with her younger sister Cassiopeia, Ke Wen got a quiet day.
In the repair shop, Kewen is maintaining the guqin entrusted here by the harp fairy Sona.
Jinx, who had returned from Piltover, was sitting opposite the workbench.
The little girl rested her chin on her hands, and stared at Ke Wen with bewildered eyes.
Feeling the sight on his body, Ke Wen had no choice but to stop his work.
He looked up at Jinx and asked, "What are you going to say?"
"I haven't changed."
Jinx stared into Ke Wen's eyes, she said with a faint smile: "You too, and Wei too, time seems to have stopped on us."
"Isn't that bad?" Ke Wen said with a smile: "And what is this? Isn't Ryze also a thousand years old, but he hasn't aged?"
"But my friends don't."
Jinx's eyes were slightly distressed: "That fellow Wei also discovered this problem, she is more distressed than me."
"What?" Ke Wen's face became serious: "Don't you want this youth to last forever?"
"I don't care, as long as I have you by my side."
Jinx shrugged and said, "But Wei can't, I saw that day."
She said: "I saw the two of them looking in the mirror together. At that time, Vi looked at Caitlin's face that was almost more mature than hers. I found pain in her eyes."
Sighing like a little adult, Jinx shook his head slightly and said, "You know, that guy Wei just likes to pretend to be mature, so she kept that question in her heart and didn't tell you."
"Is that so..."
Ke Wen nodded slightly, and at the same time sighed softly in his heart.
He also has no good way.
The longevity species is like this, time will not leave traces on the body of the longevity species, but will gradually take away everything around the longevity species, whether it is cared about or not.
As for Wei's problem, Ke Wen can solve it as long as he makes a move.
He could easily give Caitlyn the same long lifespan, but here comes the problem.
Vi's problem is solved, but what about Caitlyn
At that time, will Caitlin also have the same worries as Wei
Could it be that Cowen has to give Caitlin's parents the same long lifespan
We are not that familiar at all.
Besides, if there is not enough cultivation state, not enough state of mind, even if Kewen endows some people with a long lifespan, those people will only end up going crazy in the end!
Therefore, this question really stumped Ke Wen for a while.
After contemplating for a moment, Ke Wen thought of two options.
He said aloud, "Since it's Wei's problem, I have two options here."
"What is it?" Jinx's curiosity began to soar.
"Ordinary people, I don't care too much, such as Caitlin's parents."
Cowen said: "If they want to prolong their lives in the future, they can only choose Camille's way."
"Body modification?" Jinx was stunned.
"That's right."
Ke Wen nodded and said: "I can provide enough 'primordial crystals', and I won't care about any more. It's up to those people to make any choice."
"What about the second option?" Jinx pressed.
"The second method is for heroes."
Ke Wen replied: "I will create a separate battlefield and transform the resurrection spring there."
"Just soak in the Resurrection Spring there, and the heroes will have their lifespan extended."
"You want to create a large number of immortals?" Jinx was slightly surprised.
"That's right."
Ke Wen nodded: "But there are conditions."
He said: "If you want to be qualified to soak in the resurrection spring, you must have enough contribution points to the future League of Legends. Only by spending contribution points can you soak in the spring water, and you can only increase your lifespan by ten years at a time."
"In this way, the right to choose lies with those heroes."
Ke Wen lowered his head and continued to maintain the guqin, and at the same time he continued: "When to die, it all depends on the personal choice of the heroes. If you live enough, just stop exchanging contributions for the number of times you soak in spring water."
"What about that appearance?" Jinx asked again: "Will soaking in spring water make people stay young forever?"
"Won't."
Ke Wen smiled without looking up: "Youth will last forever, that's another price."
"What price? Is it still exchanged with contribution points?"
"That's right." Ke Wen gently removed a string, and then said: "I will create a elixir, a elixir that can keep people's appearance unchanged for five years, and it also needs a hero The contribution of the alliance can be exchanged."
"When does it begin?!"
Jinx stood up uncontrollably: "I want to tell the good news to that pink-haired female orangutan right away! Oh! And my sisters!"
"anytime."
Ke Wen looked up again and smiled, "Let's go tonight, I'll create the corresponding things at night."
"Is there any privilege?"
Jinx acted a little coquettishly: "Ke Wen, the League of Legends has not been formally established, it will take some time, I want to get Zhuyan Pill for my sisters now."
"Of course there are privileges." Ke Wen said dotingly: "It's all your own stuff. You and Wei can use it as you like, but it's only limited to heroes. It's best for you not to interfere with ordinary people."
"Very good!"
Jinx jumped and cheered: "Then I'll go and tell everyone the good news!"
After speaking, Jinx rushed out of the repair shop in a hurry.
Ke Wen watched him off with doting eyes.
When Jinx went away, he instantly put away the gentle smile on his face.
He looked indifferently to the southeast.
When chatting with Jinx just now, he sensed a sudden burst of death power from the southeast!
Calculating the time, Lafayette from Shadow Island should have been born!
But now is not the time to pay attention to the 'run-down disaster', because Kewen has to receive two visitors first.
So he looked away, and while maintaining the strings, he said softly: "You two, since you are here, please show up."
"I am so sorry."
A gentle female voice sounded.
In the next moment, a white-haired woman with purple skin and a curved horn between her eyebrows appeared in the repair shop out of thin air.
"Excuse me, hello, Mr. Kewen Quinn, I am Soraka, a wanderer from the starry sky dimension who temporarily resides on Mount Targon."
Saying that, Soraka saluted Ke Wen very formally.
"oh?"
Ke Wen raised his gaze to look at the woman in front of him, and asked curiously, "Son of the Stars, why did you come here?"
Soraka was about to say something, but stopped again.
She turned her head to look at the air beside her.
As Ke Wen also looked over, there were some ripples in the air suddenly.
Soon, an old man with long beard and long hair came out of the air.
The opponent's hair and long beard were both light blue, and he was wearing the same blue cloth robe, with a faint time fluctuation exuding from top to bottom.
"Excuse me."
After the old man showed up, he nodded to Ke Wen and nodded to Soraka in the same way.
"Time..."
Ke Wen looked at the other party with interest, and then asked again: "So, what is the purpose of your coming here today?"
"I'm here to stop her from stopping you."
Old Man Time said something like a tongue twister, and then said to Soraka: "Son of the Stars, the future you predicted is farther than the time I saw, so your plan today is wrong."
Soraka was slightly taken aback, and then humbly asked: "Sir, please point out my mistakes."
"My name is Kieran."
Old Man Time introduced himself: "I wandered in the past, present, and future time river, and I witnessed everything that happened in the world."
"Son of the Stars."
He said: "Your decision to stop Covin Quinn was wrong. In the long run, he is doing the right thing! I mean for the world."
"excuse me."
Ke Wen tapped the tabletop of the workbench lightly with his fingers: "Which one of you can answer my question first?"
"Feel sorry."
Soraka and Kieran apologized to Ke Wen at the same time, and then gave each other a slight surprise because of the tacit understanding between them...
