Condolences to the deceased
Location of the incident: Laiwinholm (about 201km from Zion)
*Previous excerpt: In Ravenholm, an important city directly interfered with and managed by G&D, ordinary people began to die frequently without any dangerous disease sources being detected. The morgue of the local hospital was full and many bodies had to be placed in temporary morgues.
Require:
Go to Ravenholm and assist the gentleman stationed there to investigate the causes of civilian deaths.
If we find any lethal factors or hidden roots of disease lurking in the shadows of the city, we need to work with local gentlemen to eliminate them.
Difficulty (person): ★★★★★+
*According to the information sent back so far, three gentlemen who were in charge of the autopsies and related investigations have completely disappeared, and the prophet in Zion accidentally spied some unknown death factor floating in the streets and alleys of Ravenholm.
The final difficulty of the event was "suspected to be super five-star".
Rewards: Rewards will be assessed based on the final investigation level of the event, individual participation, and objective evaluation of the participants by Laiwenholm, and will be awarded equivalent silver coins, gentleman's skins, and rare rewards.
Special reminder:
1. This mission requires you to cooperate with local gentlemen throughout the process and obey their arrangements. Do not investigate alone.
2. Once it is found that the potential risk of coming to Winholm is higher than the estimated value, the mission participants do not need to wait for the organization's notification and can choose to evacuate the mission site on their own. Depending on the specific circumstances, it will not be counted as escaping or abandoning, and they will not be held accountable or punished.
3. As the difficulty of the task is the highest among humans, you will be evaluated by the organization after accepting the task. Only those who pass the evaluation can go to Wenholm.
4. This task requires four people to complete. If the team has less than four people, they must wait for subsequent personnel to accept the task and fill the number.
…
“Full five stars, maybe even more than five stars.
I remember that Ravenholm was the third largest city under the organization, and many processed products were produced in Ravenholm and shipped to Zion.
This type of city has sound gentleman institutions, including tailor shops, cemeteries, clinics, etc., and there may be more than one of each type of institution.
There are also a large number of gentlemen stationed there, including many elite gentlemen who have already broken through their limits.
Why can't we find out the reason for the sudden mass death of civilians? Or maybe the death has just begun, and the hidden symptoms have not yet fully manifested. "
Seeing that Yi Chen was very interested, the white-haired Lotson next to him came over and made a suggestion:
"How about we sign up and give it a try? Anyway, both your intelligence and mine have reached the limit and meet the requirements for accepting a five-star mission.
Due to the complete failure of the relic event, I personally need to complete a high-difficulty task with a full five-star rating to restore the organization's trust in me, otherwise I will not be able to enjoy the priority of the relic event. "
"I'll get back to you tomorrow."
"This mission will be sent to the Gentlemen's Hall tomorrow. Maybe there will be a team of four people interested in the mission."
Yi Chen rolled up his sleeves and looked at the time on his watch.
"I'll give you a reply within four hours... Anyway, the Magician's Association is open all day, right?"
"Okay, I'll wait for you here."
Lotson stood where he was, waving goodbye to Yi Chen who was walking away.
Even though the figure had completely disappeared from his sight, Lotson still remained in the reception hall, standing upright, with no intention of leaving to do other things.
…
In Professor Chamberson's office.
Yi Chen reported the matter to his first mentor.
“Come to Winholm… I don’t recommend you go.
There is still no clue about the deaths that occurred there. The organization even sent Gethsemane's executioner and two doctors to assist in the investigation yesterday.
Although the majority of individuals who have died so far are ordinary people, there have also been cases of gentlemen going missing.
This kind of thing is actually classified as a human being. Those guys who created the task are really messing around.
If the thing hidden inside is open source level or above, you may lose your life during the investigation if you fail to break through the "human limit".
You have to know that you have finally returned from the old world and obtained a three-attribute relic that has never appeared in the organization for a hundred years. As your first mentor, I do not recommend you to take risks. "
"But... Professor, this incident is related to death, and the death attribute in my body has just been activated. I may be able to gain corresponding benefits from the incident, which will help the upcoming breakthrough."
Chamberson stood with his hands behind his back, standing in front of the window, seemingly thinking about something.
"You can go if you want, but there are two requirements you must follow:
1. You must strictly obey the orders of the local gentlemen and follow their arrangements for the investigation of this incident, suppressing your independent thinking. Any independent and in-depth investigation may lead to death. Even if I come here as soon as I receive the information, I may not be able to save your life.
2. Leave your box of insane here, don’t take it to such a dangerous place. "
One of the purposes of Yi Chen's visit to see Chamberlain this time was actually to deposit his personal belongings.
When the simulation of the spherical structure appeared, Chamberson couldn't help but look back and forth, "What stage has the decoding reached?"
“It should be the final stage. Currently, we need to sense things to the limit in order to peek into the secrets of deciphering.
I was originally planning to meet the principal and follow her for some induction training, but this incident happened to come up during the process."
Chamberson waved his hand and said, "It would be a bit too hasty to go directly to see the principal.
You have raised your intelligence and physique to the limit in just over a month. It is not a good thing to rush into pursuing perception. You may even fall into a state of confusion and hesitation, causing your growth to come to a complete standstill.
Take advantage of the incident in Wenholm to adjust yourself, and then go see the principal after you come back."
"OK."
Just as Yi Chen was leaving, Chamberson asked, "By the way! Jin hasn't come back yet, and Reagan is also deep inside the power station... Who are you teaming up with for this mission?"
"Old friend."
"Yeah." Chamberson subconsciously thought that they were Yi Chen's original teammates, so he didn't ask too much.
Yi Chen followed him downstairs to the teaching building and also reported to his second instructor, Zed, about his situation in Wenholm. His attitude was completely opposite to Chamberson's.
"Have fun with your body and the chains inside. As long as it's human-level stuff, just treat it as entertainment... You're very strong now!"
…
Exactly four hours passed, and Yi Chen returned to the Magicians Association on time to keep his appointment.
The white-robed Lotson remained motionless in the same place where he had said goodbye before, even the way he shook his arms was exactly the same.
Taking on this task through the membership of Lotson,
Since there are only two of them registered, this task will be delegated to the Gentlemen's Hall tomorrow, waiting for additional gentlemen to sign up until the mandatory requirement of four people is reached.
I thought that few people would take on such a difficult and unknown task.
As a result, at noon the next day, Yi Chen, who was eating in the college cafeteria, received a message asking him to go to the Gentlemen's Hall for a "qualification review" immediately.
Yi Chen had to take a bus from school, so it took him quite some time to get here.
White-haired Lotson and two other participants were already present.
One of them, Yi Chen not only met before, but also fought with him.
It was none other than the opponent who had competed with Yi Chen's team for the qualification to participate in the relic event - the heavy-armored knight Barry Besalius.
In the previous match, the physical battle between Yi Chen and him failed to determine the winner, and because Barry's two teammates were defeated, the match was forced to end.
After a conversation, we learned that Barry, who was born into a knight family, and his previous team were only a temporary team, and they disbanded after they did not qualify for the relic event.
He hopes to improve his relic priority through this full five-star event.
Moreover, he learned from the family's secret intelligence that if the completion of the Lai Wenholm incident was high enough, it would be possible to receive a relic reward directly from the organization.
Another reason was that Barry accidentally saw the familiar name Yi Chen on the list and signed up decisively.
As for the fourth person in the team, he was actually an old man much older than everyone else. A strong odor of corpse could be smelled from him. He was obviously a special gentleman who had stayed with corpses for a long time or even had close contact with them.
