the last gentleman

Chapter 11 Journey



Chapter 11 Journey
Yi Chen has never worn such elegant and chic clothes,
Although it is ready-to-wear,

Its fit is more than 90%, which will not affect the movement at all, and the fabric attached to the skin is also quite comfortable.

only,
The face of the proprietress hidden under the tulle was full of dissatisfaction.

"It's a pity you're not yet part of the organization, and there's not enough time.

Otherwise, at least I can semi-customize a more personal and useful clothing for you... I will wear this temporary 'casual clothing' temporarily, hoping that it will not affect the organization's evaluation of you. "

"I'm very satisfied."

"When you pass the assessment of the organization, you will get a free [full customization] opportunity,
At that time, you can choose any tailor shop under the organization to tailor your clothes, and you will really feel the importance of dressing.

remember,

A perfect garment can 'stimulate' your spirit and create your own style.

Wrapping your body in precious, ancient fabrics will determine how you present to the world and whether you can survive in the current world.

We must invest a lot of energy in the dressing level to perfect and pursue the ultimate. "

"understood."

Yi Chen took out a bonus mechanical watch from his pocket,

Only then did I realize that the time was approaching noon, and there was only half an hour left before the carriage departed.

After hastily saying goodbye to the proprietress, I hurried to the town.

Although in a hurry,
But when passing by a slaughterhouse, Yi Chen still took some time to buy all the pig's eyes and bull's eyes, a total of thirteen.

Does not require any processing,
When handing these so-called 'grapes' to the black fleshy balls,
It is directly wrapped in the mouth, the juice is burst in the cavity, and then chewed carefully.

The black fluff all over the body is floating gently during the eating process, which is very enjoyable.

After eating five in a row, I was finally satisfied.

The remaining 'grapes' are also swallowed whole by it, stored and kept fresh...only taken out for consumption when needed.

Yi Chen asked curiously:

"Is this all you eat?"

"Grapes are my staple food, and the nutrients contained in the juice are indispensable to my body.

Of course other foods can also be eaten, but they are not so important. "

"You don't seem to have a name."

"That's right, I was assembled from the incomplete corpses in the No. 6 cemetery, fermented and assembled. Those corpses are all nameless, and I don't have such a thing as [name]."

"In that case, why not call you [Little Putao]?"

"Okay."

Meatball waved its arms like waves again, seemingly quite satisfied with its new name.

After rushing for the last 5 minutes, I finally arrived at the entrance of the town.

Two sturdy brown horses dragged the huge wooden carriage, which could accommodate at least eight people.

It is worth noting that

The horses are all wearing special breathing masks, and the body is also covered with multiple layers of cloth, only the horseshoes are exposed.

Due to the approaching departure time,
The compartment was already full of townspeople wearing masks and tightly wrapped,

They are all carrying big bags and small bags, ready to leave the small town of Easton.

Yi Chen walked quickly to the white-haired coachman and quietly showed the cemetery business card.

Who knows,

The driver, who looked old and decrepit, quickly cast eagle-like eyes, looking up and down at the young man in front of him.

The mouth containing the old smoke slowly opened, and the white smoke came out together with the sound,
"You sit at the end, the journey is very long..."

"understood."

When stepping into the car,
Perhaps because of the elegant dress,
Maybe it's the little grape standing on the shoulder.

The townspeople who were packed into the car made a way for him as much as possible, and some even felt fearful, trembling slightly,
They stick close to each other as much as possible to make room for Yi Chen,
the carriage starts,
Although the outer layer of the wooden roller is wrapped with a thick rubber ring, you can still feel strong or weak bumps.

Because of the short sleep last night,

The boring ride in the car quickly gave rise to tiredness, Yi Chen rested his head on the wood of the carriage, and fell into a dreamland surrounded by bumps and shakes.

I don't know how long it has passed,

A burst of restlessness in the carriage woke Yi Chen up, and he habitually looked at his watch.

"Have you slept for more than three hours?"

Part of the passengers in the carriage missed, presumably they got off halfway.

The originally crowded space became able to stretch out the limbs and move around a little.

just,

These passengers seemed restless, and they could even see the fear of death directly from the pupils.

They took out more cloth from their respective luggage rooms to wrap their bodies, and even wrapped their whole bodies like mummies.

Just when Yi Chen was suspicious,
The coachman's voice came from the front:

"It is about to enter the [grey domain] range. Everyone should try to reduce breathing and unnecessary physical activities, and clear their minds... If any symptoms appear, no matter how serious they are, they will be treated as 'disease'."

finished speaking,

The driver outside spread a thick black cloth to cover the carriage.

darkness falls,

Only the kerosene lamp on Yi Chen's waist can dispel the darkness in the carriage.

【Gray field】

Another term I've never heard of.
Analyzing the words of the coachman, it should be a special area suffering from pathogenic infection,

At this time,

Little Putao sent a message:
"With me here, plus you have accepted the high-quality 【Essence of Pathogen】,
Common gray areas like this one don't pose much threat to you.

The only thing you need to pay attention to is the other people in the car. Once you find out their abnormality, you should attack as fast as possible. 』

"understood. 』

In fact, Yi Chen really wanted to see what the so-called [gray domain] looked like.
It's a pity that the carriage is closed, so we can only focus on the inside of the carriage.

In the process of walking through the gray field,

Except for the bumping sound, there was silence in the car.
Passengers sat like wooden figures, some even assumed prayer or prostration positions.

One hour,

two hours,
There was no voice from the coachman, and everyone did not know whether they had passed through the gray area.

at this time,

An old woman whose body was wrapped in a crimson cloth experienced slight body twitches.

Due to the long-term bumpy state, such anomalies were not noticed by other passengers,

however,
Yi Chen has moved his right hand to the ax handle on his waist.

In a few seconds,

The old woman leaned forward and made a vomiting motion,

Hiss... Black smoke rises.

The mask and cloth worn on the old woman's face were completely corroded by her own vomit.

A large scarlet mouth with torn corners and no more skin was exposed,

Even the tongue has become a hose, and a corrosive black liquid is constantly flowing out.

hum!
Yi Chen swung the silver ax almost immediately,

Just when the ax blade was about to cut into the opponent's neck,

Suddenly,
A tiny bullet the size of a grain of rice was shot from the front of the carriage,
Accurately hit the back of the old woman's neck, crushing the "pathogenic abscess" hidden in the throat...

with little bloodshed,

The old woman collapsed to the floor and did not move.

At this time, the coachman's extremely stern reprimand came from the front of the carriage:
"Do you want to cut her neck open and let the body fluid between the arteries spurt out together with the remains of the pathogen, infecting everyone here?"

"Excuse me."

After Yi Chen made an apology, the driver's voice changed back to the original.

"However... your only means of killing enemies is the axe.

In terms of reaction alone, it's not bad.

do me one thing

See that burlap bag under the seat?Pack the body up and tuck it into a compartment on the floor. "

"understood."

Perhaps he inherited the identity of the tomb keeper.

Yi Chen was very good at packing corpses, and quickly stuffed the packed corpses into a dark compartment on the floor.

Just listen to... a pop!
The corpses were thrown out through the chute at the bottom of the carriage, where they were left to dry and disintegrate or be reduced to food in the ashes.

Another hour passed,

The carriage finally passed through the so-called [Grey Field]

The surviving passengers began to laugh and discuss their new life in the future,
They got off at different places one after another,

Yi Chen was also the last passenger and got off at the terminal.

"It's the stop... Prepare to meet the organization's assessment, I hope you can survive."
