As early as when Yi Chen was reading the "Skin Bible", he used the ancient text on it to get a general idea of the appearance and basic situation of the Yousui Leather Factory. From it, he learned that the skins delivered from the leather factory to the organization were just the inferior batches on the production line.
The real good stuff is kept inside the leather factory.
These so-called original skins are far inferior to the yellow skins that are bound to Yi Chen.
It is currently being used for assessment and being transported into Yi Chen's body, where it will undoubtedly be swallowed.
Zhou Pi, who was standing on the viewing platform, also noticed the changes in Yi Chen's body.
"Have you learned the Skin Bible to this extent in just one month? Moreover, the whole body is coordinating and absorbing the external raw skin. The nature has changed. It is no longer bearing the burden of the skin, but absorbing in a one-way direction.
However, the other few people also have their own methods.
It is estimated that there will be five people in a state of 'perfect control' and will not be eliminated in the end.
The quality of candidates this year is surprisingly high! In the class I participated in, only Claude and I made it to the end of the "skin volume" test. 』
Time passed little by little,
Five minutes later, a candidate nominated by the Magicians Association had a large amount of leather fluid burst out of his back. He could not hold on and dropped out of the "skin volume" assessment.
Soon after, some more people withdrew until there were only five people left on the field, who were the five people that Wrinkled Spacey had spotted in advance.
Mandy from Gethsemane, Alex from the Institute, Jessica from the Tailor Guild, Garlon the Insomniac, and Yi Chen.
The five of them continued to accept the original skin without much change in expression, and it seemed that they could maintain it for a long time. Their tolerance limit for "skin amount" was almost endless, and they were able to control and digest it internally.
But in the eyes of the First Gentleman, these five people are obviously different, and their ways of carrying and controlling the original skin are different.
Another ten minutes passed.
Clank, clank, clank~ The first gentleman took back all the chains inserted in everyone's backs, ending the first assessment.
A dry and old voice came out from the First Gentleman's broken throat: "Very good, five of you actually got full marks in the "skin volume" assessment. I look forward to your next performance.
As I said before the promotion, the first gentleman to be selected this time must surpass me in all aspects.
therefore,
Candidates who failed to obtain full marks in the simplest "skin quality" assessment, please step back from the viewing platform and participate in the next promotion assessment as spectators."
Four people were eliminated in the first round.
The strength of these four people is not necessarily bad. It may just be the first time they have come into contact with the original skin and been pierced by the spine, so they are not quite used to it.
However, the four people who retreated to the viewing platform did not show much reluctance, and there was more relief in their eyes.
They became candidates not entirely voluntarily, but were driven more by pressure from various sides and their character as gentlemen.
Nowadays,
There are stronger people who are more suitable to be the first gentleman standing in front of them to push them down. The pressure from all sides no longer exists, and there is even a feeling of breaking free from the shackles and regaining freedom.
…
As the chains were removed, Yi Chen did not open his eyes.
He was in a strange state and didn't even know that four people had been eliminated.
He was still immersed in the absorption of raw skins, and through the methods learned from the "Skin Bible", he was "purifying" these inferior raw skins in his body.
Sift out the impurities and decompose the raw skin into the most primitive "lines".
Of course, it’s just purification and disassembly.
If Yi Chen wanted to get a medium or high-quality leather, he couldn't do it now. Leathermaking required ancient techniques such as reconstruction of lines and stitching, and even the entire leather factory depended on it to survive.
Waiting for him to open his eyes again.
Except for Insomniac Garlon, everyone else was staring at him. It was obvious that everyone had been waiting for quite a long time.
The voice of the First Gentleman Claude also came from above: "Now that William is ready, let us move on to the next stage of the skin promotion.
"Skin feel" is an assessment that has never been included in previous promotions for skin skills. It is also a special assessment that I customized based on my personal experience.
Next I will completely strip away your perception and project it into my body.
You will fall into a completely unknown area, and because your senses will be stripped away, the only thing you can rely on is your homologous sensitivity to the skin.
If you can find the right direction and climb out within half an hour, you will advance to the next round.
Please also take the initiative to cater to my perception stripping and do not resist..."
Another five chains shot out from the first gentleman's abdomen, but the ends of the chains were thorn-shaped and pierced directly into the back of everyone's head.
As a special kind of leather grew out of the chains and wrapped around everyone's brains, everyone followed the First Gentleman's lead and proactively cut off their five senses.
After confirming that the five candidates' senses were all blocked,
The iron chain pulled them into the belly of the withered giant... The moment they fell into the belly of the First Gentleman, the breath of the five people disappeared without a trace, as if they had gone to an unknown area.
Where did you go
Only a few people on the viewing platform could give the answer.
Wrinkled Spacey frowned slightly and whispered, "Did Claude come up with this method to select the next generation? Blocking the senses and throwing them into the 'Skin-Limbo'... This is quite dangerous. Once lost, they will be swallowed by the skin bag."
Camera Switch-Yi Chen
When the black epileptic brain was covered by the skin released by the First Gentleman, its senses were not completely blocked, because every muscle in Yi Chen's body had brain tissue.
The so-called five senses separation is just Yi Chen's wishful thinking.
The skin wrapping the epileptic brain plays more of a supervisory role. If Yi Chen activates his sensory abilities during the assessment period, he will be treated as a failure in promotion.
Following the chain, he entered the abdominal cavity of the first gentleman.
Buzz!
Since I couldn't see, hear, or touch anything, I couldn't tell where I was.
Yi Chen slowly focused on the homologous induction of the skin, feeling the existence of other cortices around him, and gradually constructed an area in his mind, as well as his own state.
"Some kind of cortical abyss, the cortex around me is flowing upwards... No! I am falling."
Yi Chen quickly shot out the iron chain from his palm, trying to hook the leather walls on both sides.
However,
Due to the pain property of the Pain Chain, when it approaches the leather wall, the corresponding leather immediately turns into liquid and cannot be hooked up at all.
Finally, using the original leather lines obtained from the previous test, he was able to hook onto the wall firmly and stop falling.
Due to his reaction time and failure to hook the chain, Yi Chen fell a long distance. As he placed his palm against the leather wall, a ripple of induction spread out.
A minute passed without any feedback and no exit could be found.
“Climb up? I fell a long distance due to a mistake. Can I really climb out in half an hour? Is there really an exit at the top
Instead of climbing up aimlessly, it is better to calm down and think about where this place is and why there is such a special space inside the body of the First Gentleman.
If we can find the answer, maybe we can get out of here quickly."
Yi Chen tied a leather cord to his head, allowing himself to dangle over the edge of the leather wall, and even sit cross-legged in the air to think during the time-limited promotion competition.
Unlike Yi Chen,
The other four candidates are older than Yi Chen, and have more experience and time in using leather than him.
When the insomniac Garlon learned that he needed to close his senses, he fell asleep on the spot. The moment he fell into the body of the First Gentleman, he woke up in a special dream and reached out his hand to the edge of the abyss.
It took only one second to crawl out of the first gentleman's body, which shocked the audience.
The second person to climb out was Jessica from the Tailors Guild, who took 2'31
The third one is the death row inmate Alex, who took 5'13
The fourth one was Mandy, who took a full twenty minutes to crawl out breathlessly.
The half-hour deadline was about to expire, but there was still no sign of Yi Chen crawling out.
Principal Dai Silin, who maintained a dignified sitting posture throughout the whole process, also began to frequently change the direction of her legs, and even a lot of sweat overflowed from between her thighs...
