The final gentleman

【Nightmare Gambling】

There were actually two reasons why Yi Chen chose to participate in this gambling game initiated by Catherine.

On the bright side,

Yi Chen already knew that pieces of meat mixed with nightmare substances had already flowed to the market and were eaten directly by a large number of gentlemen. At least 50% of the people of Zion had been 'idea implanted'.

Once Catherine is cornered, she only needs to snap her fingers, and Zion will be in chaos overnight, and the whole city will be filled with strange laughter. Gentlemen who fail to break through the limit will put on smiles and cause wanton chaos.

Want to preserve Zion and preserve the brains and lives of every citizen,

Yi Chen only had the option of playing games with Catherine.

As long as she can win the game, according to the "Soul Contract" signed by the two, Catherine will remove the thoughts from the brains of all people, eliminate the influence of nightmares throughout Zion, and completely evacuate.

But there is a very important question here.

Even if Yi Chen holds a unique "black epileptic brain", he may not be much worse than Catherine in implanting thoughts, and may even be better in some aspects.

But the main venue of the game is a nightmare, Catherine's territory.

If you want to win over someone with unknown strength or even a level much higher than Yi Chen in someone else's territory, the probability can be said to be very low.

Moreover, if Catherine is cunning and uses some weird nightmare rules and methods, the winning rate may even be reduced to [0].

If he couldn't win the game, there would be no talk of saving the people. Yi Chen himself would be enslaved to the nightmare.

therefore,

This involves another [dark side reason] for choosing to participate in the game.

A reason that can ensure that Yi Chen has a high probability of winning the game, an insurance measure that Catherine is completely unaware of.

This insurance is "Yuri's Maid".

Before Yi Chen participated in the nightmare game, he made a special trip to the Prophet's House and borrowed Prophet Yuri's maid for enlightenment training.

Finally complete the education of all maids.

Of course, this is just training. In the end, most of the maids will be lifted from their education, leaving only seven special maids with a teacher-student relationship.

Enlightenment does not affect their master-servant relationship with Prophet Yuri, and they still carry out their respective surveillance tasks every day.

It just allows these seven maids to have 'self' and start to be able to think and analyze themselves. In addition to their unchanging daily work, they will also take the initiative to seek knowledge. There may even be 'mechanical upgrades' that go beyond the original design.

He will also call him "teacher" when he sees Yi Chen.

Among these seven maids, Miss Irina, the best, most special and smartest, is the key.

She happened to be in charge of the lower-level street area and was responsible for monitoring murderous intentions. Since she obtained the stall permit issued by the organization, she usually pushed her maid pancake cart around to sell stalls.

Yi Chen and Catherine met in a restaurant on a lower street. After finalizing the nightmare game in a private room, Irina happened to catch a glimpse of them when they left the restaurant.

As teachers and students, they naturally discover each other immediately.

Yi Chen should obviously say hello to Irina who was not far away, but he pretended not to see her and left quickly.

Irina's professional acumen and self-analysis made her aware of the anomalies.

She continued to set up the stall pretending to be nonchalant, and after the normal closing time, she reported the specific situation to Yuri, who also took this matter very seriously.

After several days of getting along, including sensual and killing training, and discussion of the new maid design,

Yuri can be regarded as having a certain, even 'deeper' understanding of Yi Chen.

Yuri soon learned from Principal Deslin that Yi Chen had given up participating in the "Dream Project" in his own name. In his eyes, a guy like Yi Chen who dared to fight would never give up on Dreaming at such a juncture.

Combined with Yi Chen's unusual behavior in the lower streets, Yuri decisively issued an order.

Let seven special maids disperse throughout the city, use the 'teacher-student relationship' to locate Yi Chen's location as much as possible, follow him in secret, and never expose his whereabouts.

These seven maids are Yuri's most elite agents. They know the unknown and dark areas of Zion better than anyone else. This task is perfect for them.

Soon a maid discovered that Yi Chen, who had returned from outside the city the next day, quickly appeared in the lower streets, and his whereabouts were very suspicious.

As if receiving some kind of instructions and guidance,

After turning into more than ten narrow streets in succession, he disappeared directly under the eyes of the maids, completely lost.

However, they could barely feel Yi Chen's existence through the "teacher-student relationship". After their structural deduction of the lower streets, they finally judged that Yi Chen had turned into a "disappearing street".

Certain conditions must be met to find the 'entrance' to this street, and they probably had some guesses about the specific conditions.

You need to turn into a few correct streets and alleys at a fixed time period to find the entrance.

They did not go too far and reported the situation again.

After learning about this, Yuri immediately put down his work and went there in person, disguised as an old man with high paraplegia, without notifying anyone.

While Yuri and the maids were searching for the 'disappeared street'.

'Marco and Martin', who had escaped from the nightmare game and were preparing to clean up the hidden dangers of nightmares privately, ran into Irina, a pancake seller, when they walked out of a house on the lower street.

According to the coded instructions given by the ketchup on the pancakes,

Marco and Martin met Yuri in a hut, and the two prophets instantly stood on a united front.

Under the premise of "quietly", we jointly search for the "disappeared street" and the "traces of William"... According to the clues that Yuri has mastered, Marco uses the new divination method learned from nightmares to find the [entrance].

An apartment building that had been abandoned for many years soon appeared in front of them.

The above things are based on the premise that Yi Chen did not know and did nothing.

Just because of the maid's pivot point, the 'insurance measures' came naturally.

Catherine, who has been in contact with Yi Chen, is also unaware of this.

nowadays,

Hidden between the cloaks, Marco and Martin were already pushing Mr. Yuri in a wheelchair, standing at the head of the bed in a secret bedroom.

On the big bed in front of them, Yi Chen and Catherine were lying.

The two are connected to each other's arms with an infusion tube to ensure that they can dream together and share nightmare materials.

Neither Marco nor Yuri acted recklessly. They knew exactly what Yi Chen was doing.

When Yuri touched Yi Chen's gentleman's clothes with his murderous palm, a 'measure' set in advance was quickly activated.

Recognizing Yuri's aura, the clothing automatically revealed an inner lining with a piece of paper sandwiched inside.

≮In your sleep, there is no need to kill, just a little pressure. ≯

As Yuri placed his hand knife on Catherine's neck, a sense of threat that reached deep into the soul was instantly transmitted to the conscious body in the dream.

【Nightmare Town-Park】

Faced with Catherine's angry glare,

Yi Chen responded very calmly:

"I haven't done anything. I have always fulfilled our contract and game commitments. It's just that Catherine, you underestimate the tracking ability of gentlemen. Your so-called dream point is not absolutely secret and safe.

Just admit defeat and end the game early. If you are more decisive, you may still have a chance of survival. If you survive, maybe we can meet again at the circus in the future. "
