the last gentleman

Chapter 207
Ofal Rothick College, Chamberson Office.

A small treasure chest made of old world gold was placed on the table, and Chamberson tried to pour a controlled wind into the lock to open it.

As a result, as soon as the breeze was injected, a large amount of golden liquid overflowed from the keyhole and blocked it directly.

"It is absolutely impossible for such a thing to exist on the surface of the old world. William, have you gone to the depths? Even I have never seen this kind of gold processing method in the old world. It is too ingenious."

"It's probably like this..."

Teacher Chamberson is absolutely trustworthy, Yi Chen did not hide anything, and told in detail about the encounter with the [Old World Merchant] and the gambling.

"I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity. Maybe it's the good luck that staying with that patient zero brought you."

For a moment, Chamberson's "Owl Eyes" seemed to be able to see infinite possibilities from Yi Chen.

"Professor, would you like to see this relic?"

"This is your private property, you can show it to me if you want."

Yi Chen took out the golden key from his body and inserted it into the keyhole.

A special-shaped Rubik's Cube engraved with 'labyrinth-type' brain sulcus circuits appeared on the surface. Its unique structure allowed Chamberson to quickly immerse himself in it, and even glimpsed some inexplicable epileptic scenes.

"There is such an exquisite relic!
The relics are often by-products that are accompanied by life forms in the old world after they have completed a certain important stage of growth.

This by-product records its growth process and the remaining essential essence, most of which are very intuitive, and its specific type and function can be determined at a glance, such as the umbilical cord you got first.

This Rubik's Cube is completely different, it hides its characteristics inside.

If you want to really use this relic and use it to break through the "limit of human beings", you must first decipher and decrypt it.

It may take a relatively long time, and it may also produce unknown pathogenic substances during the decryption process, and even cause some pathological anomalies.

That's it!I will arrange a secret room with a seal on the lower street, and you can go there to decipher the Rubik's Cube when you are free. "

"Thank you Professor."

"In addition, due to the special circumstances of the "relic incident", there should be staff from the Gentleman's Hall to conduct some rough inquiries and psychological tests on you.

If you ask about relic acquisition, this is your private matter, so you can choose not to answer.

If you encounter a more troublesome situation, you can disclose the "black umbilical cord", and things about the Rubik's Cube must not be exposed in Zion.

The value of the three-attribute relic is already immeasurable, and it will draw out the greed hidden deep in the heart, which will inevitably cause trouble. "

"understood."

"I'm going to prepare the [Secret Chamber] now, and I'll let you know when it's ready.

The rest of the time is best to meet with Instructor Bailey. Her students failed to come back with you. As the temporary captain, you need to give her an explanation. "

"it is good."

When Chamberson left, he patted Yi Chen's shoulder heavily with his palm.

……

【Gethsemane】

In an office full of finger showcases,
The long black legs were on the table, and after hearing Yi Chen's account of the incident,
"If Jin is exploring in the direction that the red lotus grows, then there should be no problem. She won't die. The worst case is that she cannot be defined as a [person] and cannot return to the organization.

Anyway, she never regarded Zion as her home, so it didn't matter.

Let her go~"

When talking about this, Yi Chen happened to have a question: "About Jin's diseased characteristics - [Red Lotus] I heard her talk about it before, it seems to be related to 'father'... What does the specific disease correspond to?"

"It is one of the extremely dangerous "cancer diseases", and it is similar to the existence of an overlord among physical diseases.Since the development of the organization, there are only a handful of gentlemen who can control cancer.

This is related to the tragic experience of Jin Youyou, and you need to understand the details yourself, provided that she can come back. "

"Well, I do believe Kim will come back."

"Are you sure? It seems that this journey has brought the relationship between you two closer~"

Speaking of which, Instructor Bailey seemed to want to discuss some personal matters with Yi Chen, and used the same tactics as before.

The soles of the feet covered with black silk flashed,

Clamping Yi Chen's tie, trying to drag him to the desk.

But this time it's different,

Instructor Bailey got a very intuitive feedback - [heavy].

Compared with before, this time it felt like she was dragging the weight of ten Yichens, which almost made her toes cramp.

"Why did you become so heavy? It's not entirely because of weight gain, but a kind of physical stability... Don't rush to rub it for me, it almost made my feet cramp."

Yi Chen, who was dragged to the desk, couldn't refuse, so he could only pinch his calf with both hands and rub it slowly.

"Your physique should be reaching its limit soon, right? And even if you reach your limit, it shouldn't be so heavy... Has your body changed fundamentally during your journey in the old world?"

"Yes."

"What changes, show me."

Yi Chen didn't hide anything, after all, Instructor Bailey was also his half-mentor.

One hand is still rubbing the leg,

The other hand grows an iron chain with needles in the palm,

The moment the iron chain appeared, Bailey jumped back instinctively, taking advantage of the opportunity to pull out a special weapon whose length could be changed from under the desk.

If it wasn't Yi Chen, but a strange gentleman, Belle might have his throat cut and beheaded directly.

The concentration of symptoms emitted by the needle-pierced iron chain far exceeds the conventional standard. Only in the old world can such alienated chain-like features be seen.

Yi Chen quickly explained, "Instructor Bailey, the original plant disease in my body was infected by the old world material, and finally turned into such an iron chain."

"Pain... this chain will cause pain, right?"

"Yes."

"That's right! To contain this kind of thing in the body, other gentlemen would have died hundreds of times. I am afraid that only Zed and your physique in Zion can tolerate this disease.

What you have achieved this trip is really amazing. I can't even imagine the specific state you can achieve after breaking through the limit.

Originally, I wanted to compete with you, but forget it now, being drawn by this thing is enough for me to be in pain for a few days and nights, you should go back and have a good 'communication' with Zed. "

"Ah."

"When you are ready to break through, if you are willing to show it publicly, please let me know."

"Does that still need to rub your legs for you?"

Instructor Bailey bent down and poked her calf, "Don't... I don't want to be pierced by a steel needle. You should have a lot of things to deal with when you just returned to the city, so hurry up and do other things."

"Ok."

Farewell instructor,

Yi Chen immediately went to the power station to meet with Reagan to see what relic he got.

After arriving, he was told that Reagan was in an important stage of retreat, in the deepest [charge area] of the power station, and was personally approved by the director.

If you want to meet, you probably have to wait until Reagan breaks through.

When Yi Chen, who came out of the power station, was about to go back to school to meet Zed,

goooo~
In the blink of an eye, a white owl stood on Yi Chen's shoulder, guiding him to the "deciphering chamber" prepared by Chamberson.

The secret room is located next to the nameless clothing store, a remote store that has been rented by no one for many years.

In case of major changes during the deciphering and decryption period, the owner of the clothing store, Ivan, can come out to smooth things over.

In the shop full of spider webs, there are strange models borrowed by Chamberson from the clothing store, and there is a rusty signboard - [Unnamed Warehouse], which is disguised as a store rented by the clothing store to store redundant models. Compartment warehouse.

Walk through the mannequin, touch the hidden button between the floor tiles, and a secret passage leading to the basement will open.

The basement that has been buried for several years and has not been used has been simply tidied up by Chamberson with wind magic.
There are seals on the walls and between the ground seams, and the lingering wind sounds indicate that the enchantment has been completed.

"Ivan will take care of some superficial problems. If the wind barrier is damaged, I will rush over as soon as possible.

You just need to feel at ease to decipher the work here. "

"Thank you Professor."

"Continue to maintain this state and reach a level beyond our expectations."

After Chamberson left, Yi Chen found a chair and sat in the center of the basement,

With the kerosene lamp hanging above the head, the first deciphering of the relic began.
