The final gentleman

One week after meeting Ludwig Reagan.

Yi Chen woke up in the student dormitory of Ophrostick College and prepared to go to Zed's paradise for today's special physical training.

Ring!

The phone in the dormitory rarely rang.

The call was received from outside the school. As soon as he picked up the call, a murderous greeting came from the receiver.

"Hello! Good morning, Mr. William, do you still remember me?"

"Jin, haven't you been doing the academy test recently? Besides, there are still a lot of things to do. Teacher Zed is also giving me special training every day, so I don't have time to leave the school at all."

"The instructor wants to talk to us both. I'll give you ten minutes."

"Okay, wait..."

Before he finished speaking, the other end hung up the phone.

Yi Chen didn't panic at all. He went to the bathroom to take a quick cold shower and touched the gentleman's clothes on the hanger with his wet fingers.

The feeling between skin and skin makes the clothing move on its own, fit the skin and wear itself, fasten every button and smooth out every wrinkle.

Pack your suitcases and head off on the campus train.

As soon as I stepped into the orchard of Gethsemane, I felt a sense of danger coming from around me.

Yi Chen immediately put one hand on the ground and performed a concise and super-fast sideways roll... Unfortunately, when he stood up, his shoulder was still caught.

Just as he turned his head, a colorful mask was stuck on him.

The familiar dangerous aura stimulated the shaking of the plants in Yi Chen's body and the squirming of his clothes.

"Kim! Long time no see."

"Oh~ your reaction has become faster. It seems that you are indeed very busy every day, please forgive me."

Yi Chen also noticed Jin's changes. She seemed to be faster than before, and Xiao Pei, who was standing on her shoulders, also became more stable.

When he saw Yi Chen, Xiaopei opened his chicken wings slightly like a gentleman, bent his chicken neck at 45° and bowed.

However, what Yi Chen cares about most is the [sword] that Xiu Jin carries behind his back.

The raw material of this sword has been spied on the old world scene, and it is only one step away from the open source "Deformed Sacred Fetus-Marcos". It is paired with suitable materials selected from the organization's treasury.

It was finally made by a blacksmith in Gethsemane who was specialized in forging executioner weapons.

The hilt looks ordinary, wrapped with a leather bandage to increase friction.

The scabbard is dark red with cloud-like flesh-colored lines.

The true appearance and effect of the sword's blade are unknown;

Through the scabbard, Yi Chen could smell the familiar breath of new life deep in the church.

"This sword may have inherited the super regenerative power like Marcos, and it will definitely be able to reach its maximum potential in Jin's hands... In this case, even if it goes deep into the gray realm, it will be confident enough." 』

"Jin, how do you use the new weapon?"

"What, do you want to give it a try? How about I apply for a gladiatorial arena and we can compete?"

"Let's go see what Instructor Bailey wants from us first..."

Yi Chen is still very afraid of competing with Jin. It doesn't matter whether he wins or loses. The main thing is that Jin's attacks are not serious and may even endanger his life.

When talking about the instructor's matter, Jin was also full of excitement, "If nothing else, it should be 'that thing'. I'm really looking forward to it. I don't know how the instructor will arrange it."

"Let's go."

In an office filled with finger collections.

Instructor Bailey changed into a white shirt and leather vest, but still only wore black stockings on her lower body.

This time, she was not admiring and arranging her favorite fingers, but was carefully examining a new document issued by the organization. The incident information recorded on it was very suitable for Yi Chen and Jin.

"You should know why I'm looking for you this time, right?

Jin has reached the "human limit" a long time ago. As for William, you are almost there, right? Ever since you came back from Jose Valley, I've been looking for a [Relic Event] that matches the two of you.

Finally, I received an urgent document last night. Judging from the content, it is suitable for your first trip.

Not long ago,

A team carried out an investigation mission among the thin natural gray areas. During the investigation, they accidentally discovered that the gray area had a tendency to change and become thicker, and a small area had reached the middling level.

And discovered a [new passage] that has never been recorded or explored.

The organization has dispatched a "Tunnel-Watcher" to the location of the tunnel at a time, and has confirmed the connectivity, specifications and ratings of the tunnel.

The organization will arrange for three teams that meet the conditions to go together and search for relics of the old world through the new passage.

However, there are several rigid conditions for this relic incident.

1. The size of the team must be [three people], which is related to the rules of the gray realm.

2. The perception of team members must not be lower than [3], and at least one person can pass the "Old Living Writing" basic test.

Also,

The so-called [New Life Passage] means that no one has ever explored it and is highly unknown. You may get rare relics, or you may not find anything in the end and be infected with a disease.

Of course, the freshmen channel is very popular, and many teams may sign up by then.

Interested? "

"Of course I'm interested. I can't wait to go to the Gray Realm and try my weapons." Jin is willing to accept anyone who comes. She is full of energy as long as there is a task, and she completely trusts the instructor's vision.

Yi Chen's attitude was different. It was the first time for him and Jin to come into contact with this kind of incident that required touching the true gray realm and the passage to the old world. There were some things that must be asked clearly:

"I have a few questions."

"Just ask."

"In an unknown gray area full of disease risks, why does the organization deliberately arrange three teams to form a competitive relationship?"

"Being competitive is engraved in human bones. The stimulation of competition can greatly increase your probability of survival. As long as you can get a gentleman who breaks the limits, the sacrifice is worth it.

And with enough people, there is a greater chance of finding relics.

After all, every time a [channel] is entered, the probability of being discovered will increase. The probability of discovery of a new channel is the smallest, and the organization will not waste such an opportunity.

Do you have any other questions? "

"If Jin and I confirm the registration, we will need three people according to the requirements...Does Instructor Bailey have any arrangements?"

"The gentlemen of the same class as you in Gethsemane are basically unwilling to team up with Jin, so you need to find this 'third person' on your own.

You still have 18 hours to determine the candidates. At that time, I will submit your team list in the name of [Gethsemane].

If there are not many teams registered, we will arrange your departure in the near future and provide more detailed event information. "

"Okay, we will confirm the third person as soon as possible."

Although Yi Chen's face was expressionless, he was actually already excited. He had been backlogging it for such a long time, and he just happened to be able to decipher the old living script.

I have always wanted to personally contact the [passage] that leads to the old world and explore the essence of the so-called old world.

A few minutes later, Yi Chen and Jin had returned to the street area.

For the third choice, Kim first put forward her ideas.

"William, the guy named Da who beat me in strength last time should be able to do it, right? If he has that level of strength, his physical strength must be very high."

"Duckburg? His physique has reached [6] and is heading towards [7]. But he may not necessarily follow us. After all, he and Edmund are on the same team.

I have already left them. If I still poach Duckberg, I would be a really evil person. "

"Why do you have to think about these things? Just ask him directly. As long as he is willing to come, then come~"

"I will go back and ask Professor Chamberson. With his connections, he may be able to find a suitable candidate for us. I will also report to him about this relic incident."

"It's really troublesome..."

"There's really no one to choose from, so I'll ask Duckberg, okay?"

Just as the two of them were walking through a certain street on their way to the train platform,

A familiar voice came from behind,

"William Behrens?"

Following the voice, he turned around and saw a fat young man wearing glasses standing behind him. He looked very strange but also felt a little familiar...

"Mr. Reagan? Is that you?"
