In a stream 30km outside of Ravenholm,
Due to the erosion of death, the electric carriage that integrated the power station's most advanced technology was completely scrapped and thrown into the woods nearby.
The colorful masks were placed on the rocks on the banks of the stream.
A woman with short dark brown hair that reached below her ears was having the clear river water splashed on her face. Her thin, moist and slightly red lips were completely soaked, with even a few drops of water on them.
However, no matter how she cleaned it, the red lotus mark under her left eye did not fade at all.
After she simply washed herself, she put on the mask, filled a flesh-made bucket with water, and walked into the woods nearby.
Yi Chen was lying here to rest.
Although the yellow component integrated into the clothes helped to stitch the flesh together, the continuous use of "dead makeup" and the flesh cutting caused by inhaling black mist made Yi Chen miserable.
Even the regenerative essence of the "black umbilical cord" was squeezed dry.
Yi Chen, who was sitting against the wall, kept vomiting out chopped black internal organs, and blood was oozing from many parts of his body.
Reagan squatted aside and used his mental power to help adjust the distribution of internal organs to alleviate Yi Chen's injuries.
Seeing the river water coming from Jin, Yi Chen immediately scooped it up and drank it, even eating up the bucket made of meat. After being simply absorbed, the water and meat swallowed into his body all flowed to the "black umbilical cord", finally allowing Yi Chen to calm down.
"Huh~ I really thought I would die there. Although Lotson's betrayal was within my consideration, the sudden attack by Vice President Evart was beyond my expectations.
I really didn't think it through enough. I won't force myself to do it next time."
After listening to Yi Chen's story, Reagan was also quite shocked. "If someone could kill the vice president within the human realm, if this matter were to be reported back to Zion, the top management would probably be alerted."
"I was just lucky. The death trait I possessed just happened to restrain the vice-president who had just become a dead person. Moreover, he was also a sensor type, so he was weak in attack and lethality.
If you randomly choose another transcendent to deal with me, I will most likely be defeated.
I didn't expect the death in Lai Wenholm would turn out like this. I'll go back and see what the organization has to say."
Yi Chen stood up, and the three of them needed to walk back to the city.
Jin didn't say much and carried the half-ton Headless Knight as Yi Chen requested.
After hearing about Barry's experience, they could understand why Yi Chen was determined to take the body back.
Watching Jin running at the front of the team gave Yi Chen a different feeling than before.
Although the madness that once existed in her bones has not diminished, she has gained some extra things to suppress the madness.
Finally, Yi Chen couldn't help but ask in advance: "Jin, what did you experience in the old world? Why did it take you so long to come back from there?"
“Because the old world can provide a better place for breakthroughs, I will wait until I complete the limit breakthrough before coming back. By the way, I can also give you a big surprise, right
Two hours after we split up, an 'envoy' from the depths of the old world came to pick me up.
After making sure they had no ill intentions, I was taken to a special place called Cancer Palace.
According to the messenger, the Cancer Palace is the largest source of epidemic in the Old World. Even in the dead world, the restrictions imposed on the Cancer Palace are the smallest.
Those guys living there are pretty interesting.
And I also met a 'master', the red lotus cultivated and polished by her was extremely perfect, and her strength could even easily destroy an organization like Zion.
Under her guidance, I passed the special assessment of the Cancer Palace and obtained a relic that satisfies my current stage."
"Cancer Palace... Jin, have you ever considered staying there?"
"I have considered it, but after comprehensive consideration, it is better to come back. After all, the old world has been completely blocked and even dead. Many things cannot be done. Even my master suggested that I continue to use my human identity and live here as much as possible.
When the Gray Domain has completely expanded to every corner of the world, the Cancer Palace will also move part of itself here and occupy a place here. I will then go over there.
By the way! The Cancer Palace is very interesting. I will take you there to have a look next time I have a chance."
"Okay, by the way, Jin, what is your legacy?"
"'Swelling Lotus Heart' is a perfect match for my coordination and sensing dual-attribute relic, and it can also work on red lotus... but Master picked it specifically for me."
"It seems to suit you very well."
Yi Chen noticed Jin's performance in the Sunshine Hotel. Her speed, sensitivity and especially lethality were greatly improved. She suppressed Lotson in just the first fight.
"What about you, Reagan? You should have some good opportunities in the Old World, right?"
Yi Chen changed the topic to Reagan.
Reagan, who was originally a monster, became even more perverted after this breakthrough. He completely crushed Lotson and killed him, leaving the opponent with no chance to escape.
Reagan scratched his cheek a little with his fingers.
“Well… Actually, I also want to say this.
It's just that the things I came into contact with in the old world planted a kind of 'sealing' disease in my consciousness. Once I talk about things about 'them', the disease will sprout and disrupt my consciousness. "
"You still want to do this?"
“That’s how those guys treat ‘participants’, because they really need to hide their identities.
The only thing I can reveal is that they are just a bunch of mental patients. I barely passed the mental test before I was given their relics as a gift, which is quite similar to Jin's experience.
But it only took me one day, and I quit immediately after getting the relic.
How about you, William
Among the three of us, I was the only one who left the old world within the limited time. I had been waiting at the entrance of the passage for a whole week, but the person who came out was a 'pretender'.
The monitor and I were unable to capture the silver-haired young man even when we worked together. I was even affected by the illusion on a mental level. What a scary guy."
Faced with Reagan's questions, Yi Chen had to explain the whole process of his encounter with Lorian.
When Jin, who was walking in front, heard that Lorian had been living in Yi Chen's body and that the two had adventured together in the old world, he was stunned for a moment.
"That guy named Lorian, is he very powerful?" Jin asked a question.
"He is very strong and his growth rate is not slower than ours. Even if the three of us join forces, we may not be able to defeat him."
"It's really interesting. I didn't expect that you, William, knew a patient like this. I hope we'll have a chance to meet in the future."
After the brief exchange, it was proven that the three people's decision to explore the Old World separately was a wise one, as everyone had extraordinary opportunities.
Not only Yi Chen came into contact with big figures like the Duke, but Jin and Reagan also came into contact with large forces within the Old World and even established certain ties. Such relationships will play an important role when the Gray Domain is completely pervasive.
unconsciously,
The three men had come to the foot of the mountain where the city of Zion was located. As they were about to go up the mountain,
A group of special gentlemen wrapped in biochemical suits and wearing breathing masks surrounded them.
"Anyone who has anything to do with coming to Winholm needs to be quarantined before returning to Zion. Only after it is confirmed that you do not carry any deadly plague factors can you return to the city normally.
Please follow us.”
"Oh... the Disease Control guy."
Jin recognized the attire of this group of people at a glance, because half of them were from Gethsemane, and they were considered an alternative group of executioners.
Under the guidance of this group of people, the three were led into a hidden secret passage at the foot of the mountain.
By smelling the scent between the passages, it can be determined that other fugitives are also concentrated here.
