The Last Gentleman

Chapter 335: Reborn from Ashes

Views:

Winter! Winter! Winter!

The bell at the top of the Hall of Glory was rung. The dull sound of the bell meant that a new gentleman had left his name inside. Most gentlemen also knew that this bell corresponded to the contributor of the nightmare incident.

Most of them put down what they were doing and turned to the direction where the bell came from to pay their respects.

However,

Some gentlemen who were standing on high places and could have a normal view of the palace building, when the bell was about to end, they all felt a strange feeling, as if something was staring at them from the depths of the palace.

"What is that?"

Some people with higher sensory attributes or outstanding visual abilities vaguely saw a burnt eyeball among the clouds above the hall, and the ring-shaped eye seemed to be still burning.

The long gaze even made these gentlemen's eyes feel burning, and the instant pain brought them back to their senses.

After looking away, I quickly checked my eyes.

It was unexpectedly discovered that all of their eyeballs had more or less traces of burns, either a black spot, or the entire eyeball was blackened, and a very small number even had scaly burn marks on the eyeballs.

Glory Hall-Monstrance Room

Intense screams continued to echo here, heart-wrenching and reaching deep into the soul, as if to awaken the holy body here.

The one who screamed was Little Grape Grip.

Due to the direct absorption of the prophet Rudolf's "Eye of Ultimate Bliss", the curse entered the body. This curse has remained in the corpse for hundreds of years and has not even weakened much compared to the original time.

All the hair on Little Grape's body burned from the inside, turning into particles of fire that floated in the air.

Its open mouth was covered with burn marks, and there were a lot of scaly burn marks inside its mouth. Its tongue was burned dry and covered with cracks. The eyeball in its mouth gradually became the same as "Jinmu".

When Yi Chen saw his friend who had always followed him being burned into this state, he instinctively wanted to step forward to help, but was forcibly stopped by the archbishop next to him with a holy light barrier.

"Rudolf was stronger than you back then, but he was still unable to get rid of the curse brought on by prying into the restricted area when he was dying. You can't let a good seedling like you get infected and ruin your future.

Since this is your friend's own choice, let him bear it alone.

I guess it is not the kind of guy that is completely driven by desire. It must be certain before choosing to take the initiative to contact.

Moreover, the corpses hidden in this little guy's body are not simple. Each one has hundreds of years of history, and even a few of them have a much stronger aura than us old guys."

The screams gradually disappeared, not because Little Grape had adapted to the curse.

It was because it had been completely burned to ashes.

The hair burned off and the body dried up.

Card~

As a crack appeared on the surface of the burnt sphere, the burnt body of the little grape collapsed directly, and ashes and dust were scattered all over the ground... However, the form of scattering and accumulation was somewhat particular.

The ashes that fell to the ground actually formed a small mound, or to be more precise, a grave mound.

When Yi Chen first met Little Grape in Cemetery No. 6, its grave was very ordinary, even messy... But the current ashes of grave were slightly different, with the remaining flames faintly flickering on the surface.

Yi Chen and the Archbishop could both feel that something was brewing.

At the same time,

Prophets in different areas of Zion, whether it was Principal Deslin of the Academy or Prophet Marko of the Gemini Church, all sensed that something evil was being born.

However, this evil thing is somewhat similar to them, and seems to have the attribute of "prophet".

Daisylin descended to the observation deck from a suspended posture of "holding a ball in her arms". Her star-like eyes saw through the academy barrier and looked in the direction where the sensation came from.

It was discovered that "black snow" was falling in the Hall of Glory and its surrounding areas, or a special kind of gray, and in the clouds above, there seemed to be a giant eye with scorch marks that made people feel uncomfortable.

“Is this… the ‘burnt eye’ that old Mr. Rudolph once suffered from

Could it be that a newcomer has successfully accepted this curse and Rudolf's child magic? If there is such a person, I should know it clearly. I have never heard of any newcomer with a unique talent in "using eyes" recently.

And today is the award ceremony for the Nightmare Incident, could it be that… "

The stars floated between Deslin's fingers, and she immediately figured out something.

She turned around, put on her going-out clothes, pulled on knee-high leather boots, put on round-frame glasses, and walked towards the hall area.

Eucharistic Room.

The archbishop has moved all of the dozen or so holy bodies near the Ash Mound to prevent the bodies of these old companions from being engulfed in the curse.

An hour passed.

Boom, boom~ Faint heartbeats came from inside the grave.

The soil particles loosen,

Accompanied by zombie-like screams coming from deep in the mound,

An arm covered with scorch marks and patterns of embers appeared deep in the center of the grave. Its five fingers were digging into the ground, supporting a scorched head with fluffy black hair that was poking out of the ground.

Its face was inlaid with eighteen burnt eyeballs, staring at the two people in front of it.

Slowly,

The whole charred body has crawled out from the grave,

Yi Chen and the Archbishop could not help but take a few steps back, and the latter even held the jeweled scepter upright in front of him, ready to attack the charred corpse in front of him.

If you observe carefully, you will find that several faces have emerged on the back of the charred corpse, but they all have their eyes closed and seem to be still asleep.

As the charred corpses continued to crawl,

The archbishop directly condensed a variety of nested floating magic arrays on the end of his staff, preparing to release powerful holy light magic to deal a devastating blow to the target.

Just then,

The charred corpse no longer looked painful, and he stood up from the ground with a somersault.

A dry, hoarse, and strange sound with multiple channels superimposed came out of his mouth:

"Don't~ I'm just kidding! The flesh in my body has completely accepted this curse... or rather, the "fog eye syndrome" that remains in Rudolph's body just matches the 'Eye Collector. Gumhar' that I have developed in my body.

Gumhar has fully awakened and has reached the maximum level of development.

Moreover, the evil eye child technique he mastered was perfectly integrated with this scorching eye disease. Finally... I finally have a complete and unique external corpse!

William, next time you need to deal with any circus members or encounter any open-source patients, Ben Grape can handle it alone.

I have now reached the open source level. This cursed eye disease allows me to exert greater strength than the eyeball collector Gumhar.

It’s awesome! ”

immediately,

Little Grape transformed itself into its original black meat ball form, did a standard mid-air somersault and landed steadily on Yi Chen's shoulder.

However, there were still some traces of light floating among its hair, and the eyeball in its mouth always showed the shape of "eyes wide open".

With the return of Little Grape, Yi Chen immediately received a reminder of the change in pet information.

≮Pets≯

Name: Little Grape.Grip (Exhausted state)

Developed Corpse (First Corpse) - Eyeball Collector Gumhar, the development degree has reached 100% and can control and use the disease ability of "Eye of the Rest".

Warning: If you combine with a pet at this time, the remaining state will spread and cause damage to your body, but it will also enhance some specific abilities.

*When you travel through the old world or other disease-related world areas, you can collect "firewood" appropriately to improve and change the remaining status of your pet.
