Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 41 Heimerdinger, the Ohara Expedition

Piltover's supernatural powers may not be comparable to those of other regions on the continent, but it represents the pinnacle of continental technology.

Heimerdinger, however, was the pinnacle of pinnacles. Yordles have no concept of death, and scientific research occupied a vast proportion of Heimerdinger's life.

He was exceptionally talented but had an eccentric and unconventional personality, and was hailed as the most innovative and respected inventor Piltover had ever seen.

Moreover, Heimerdinger was an excellent teacher. Although his theories often seemed obscure and difficult to understand, he believed that knowledge should be shared and was dedicated to teaching those who were eager to acquire knowledge.

Heimerdinger had many students, and he himself was one of the people who knew about Oran's mysterious abilities. He was fascinated by the problems in the universe, and he was amazed by the technology outside the universe.

Throughout Oran's academic career, Heimerdinger has been an indispensable and powerful asset, while Oran's ingenious ideas have always brought surprises to Heimerdinger. In his years of coaching, Heimerdinger has truly dedicated himself to the profession.

"Not long ago, the person you commissioned sent you a message from Ionia, and then I started working on this device. It's really not easy to contact you, after all, your dream world is very unstable."

If you have anything urgent, you'd better explain it to me immediately. I'm not sure I can get you here again next time.

To complete the dream capture, Heimerdinger needs to activate the device before Oran enters the dream world.

However, the flow of time on both sides is not the same, and this success was just a stroke of luck. Moreover, Heimerdinger himself had no research on dreams, and this device was essentially an amplifier.

The device, aided by Lulu's magical power, amplified the dream energy here, thereby increasing its attraction to Oran after he entered the dream, allowing Oran to successfully arrive here.

This is the only pattern Heimerdinger discovered regarding Oran's ability to enter dreams: the realm related to the spiritual world is where Oran frequently appears, and those proficient in spiritual or soul magic are more likely to attract him, especially in places he has never been before.

"Thank you for your help, Professor Heimerdinger."

A good teacher can benefit people greatly, while a teacher who is not virtuous enough can ruin countless lives. Oran understands this all too well.

"You are my most promising student. What's this? You don't seem to have anything important to do. This might be a new opportunity. Seize this opportunity; it might bring about a different change in the world."

Oran's figure suddenly became illusory, but this time it wasn't because he was about to wake up, but because Heimerdinger's device malfunctioned.

The problem wasn't with the design itself; it was with the person casting the spell—Lulu.

This Yordle witch is kind-hearted and willing to help others, but that doesn't mask her unreliability.

The word "focus" is hard to find in her, even now; the instability of her output ultimately led to the premature dissipation of the Dream Field.

Oran ended his dream journey for the night before he could even finish speaking.

Oran, who was on the ship, was unusually awakened from his dream, but at least he explained his situation, which put their minds at ease.

After receiving news that he was in trouble, his employees in Piltover immediately formed a mercenary group to help rescue their boss.

Many of Oran's employees come from the lower rungs of Zaun because Oran treats them all equally as human beings, and these people genuinely support him. This is the most basic requirement for those at the bottom, but many people cannot do it.

Oran's disappearance almost caused chaos, but Ahri's timely message calmed them down.

But the mercenary army did not disband. Only the successful development of Heimerdinger put their minds at ease. However, a little chaos occurred in Piltover tonight.

Lulu's out-of-control magic transformed many people present into bizarre and fantastical creatures, creating a magical night in Piltover.

Oran himself came to the deck after waking up, gazing at the different stars in the sky, lost in thought.

"Orlan? You woke up so early today?"

On the second-floor ship's railing, Kate was hanging upside down, exercising. As a cat-furry creature, nighttime was her domain, especially after Hextech Heart enhanced her abilities, which reduced Kate's need for sleep considerably.

He usually only sleeps for a few hours at noon, while Blitz keeps watch over him.

After all, a robot's body doesn't need to go through the process of sleeping, but Frankenstein is still mimicking humans by sleeping. This not only makes her more human-like, but also saves power by hibernating.

I dreamt of something different.

"Master, there's a ship approaching from seven o'clock. They seem to be being chased."

After the battle between Frankenstein and Caesar ended, the MADS research ship resumed its voyage and did not anchor until nightfall.

Sailing at night is a very dangerous thing, especially on the Grand Line. Most ships choose to stop at night to avoid being caught in dangerous waters.

How much further?

"Distance corrected. Three nautical miles, estimated arrival time 15 minutes."

Blitzkrieg's visual system is unique, possessing many functions such as night vision, telescope, and infrared detection. In dark environments, Blitzkrieg's eyes are far more useful than human eyes.

"Are they treating this place like a beacon? Sound the alarm and prepare to fight."

Many of MADS' researchers are night owls, and many rooms still have lights on. As one of the few ships on the high seas that can achieve power freedom, MADS has been mistaken for a lighthouse in the past.

Presuming someone is an enemy without knowing their identity is one of the fundamental principles for survival on this sea teeming with pirates.

As MADS' research ship began preparing for a counterattack, a group of people who also appeared to be scholars were also ready for battle on the fleeing ship.

"Doctor! Those pirates are catching up! We probably can't shake them off!"

"Sir! That's not a lighthouse, it's another ship! It seems we have nowhere to escape!"

The leader had clover-shaped hair on his head and held a curved knife in his hand. The sailor's report made him frown. He hadn't expected that the pirates behind him would be so persistent.

"What greedy pirates! We didn't find any treasure in the ruins, but these guys won't believe us and keep chasing us."

This ship is an exploration vessel, and most of the people on board are scholars from various places who have gathered together to explore history.

The man with the clover on his head is the captain of this ship, named Cloba. The name is not well-known at this time, but this man comes from Ohara, the future holy land of archaeology.
