Tailors Guild
Yi Chen, with half of his face covered by a scarf and wearing a hood, was standing in front of Spacey, the CEO's tailor.
The light in the room happened to hit the leather-covered face of the person in the "Skin Bible", but the person holding the book was Yi Chen, not Spacey.
"Since you are going to travel to the Old World for a long time and intend to contact the leather factory as an individual, you should continue to carry this book with you and return it to me after you return from the leather factory."
"Thank you Mr. Spacey."
Naturally, Yi Chen would not refuse such an opportunity.
The "Skin Bible" is an important item given directly by the leather factory. Even the original leather slaves born in the leather factory may not have the opportunity to obtain such a Bible.
"Mr. Spacey, could you please give us a brief account of the leather factory?"
"The Yousui Leather Factory, one of the source epidemic areas in the old world, is known as the "oldest factory" and has the highest mass production and separation technology in the entire old world. In addition to its own leather production, it often receives production orders from other source epidemic areas or special organizations.
It is also the source of the skin.
Anyone who sets foot in the leather factory must sign a soul contract and must not reveal any information about the interior.
The living text of the "Leather Bible" shows you the leather factory scene, which is completely sufficient. Moreover, this book actively shows you because it recognizes your talent in leather. As long as you go to the leather factory with pure friendly purposes, there will be no problem, and you may even be able to obtain an official identity to live inside. "
"knew."
After bidding farewell to Mr. Spacey, Yi Chen, holding the Skin Bible, was in a good mood and began to plan his itinerary.
“This trip to the Old World is not only to contact the leather factory, but also to go to the original tomb to see if we can get a chance to die, or even the identity of a real deceased person.
Also, I'll try to meet the Duke to see if there's anything good that's suitable for me.
However, there is an important issue that must be considered. Once I set foot on the land of the old world, the monastery that I offended last time will most likely notice my arrival and even hunt me down as soon as possible.
The negotiations on the original tomb have not been concluded yet, and the Duke is my only supporter in the old world.
But the Duke is an absolutely neutral person, and I am just a high-quality customer. If I don’t have anything valuable in my hand, the Duke won’t even show up.
So I had to quickly find a supporter when I arrived in the Old World.
There seem to be two options at the moment.
1. Go to the original tomb and seek shelter, but I don’t know where the original tomb is. “Dead Ridge Lak” may be able to lead me, but it is also dangerous on the way to the original tomb.
The other party sent three monks last time, but they were tricked by Lorian. This time they will definitely send more, even more dangerous ones.
2. Agree to Jin's request and follow her to the largest source of epidemic area in the Old World - Cancer Palace.
Jin is currently considered an important member of the Cancer Palace, and has been awarded the Epidemic Book - "Swelling Records". Once we arrive in the Old World, Jin may be able to directly open the passage to the Cancer Palace. Even if attacked, Jin can reveal his identity, and the monastery gang should not dare to take action.
Also, let's go find Master Zed before we leave, we can also discuss the monastery issue. 』
We arrived at the bottom floor of the academy, in Zed's office.
"Has Teacher Zed gone out? No, my body can sense a very weak aura of the same origin. What is the teacher doing?"
In the two years since joining the organization, Yi Chen has spent more than 30% of his time here.
He was already very familiar with Teacher Zed's place. He could roughly judge where the teacher was by smell and sound just by stepping through the door.
But today was a little different, as if the "unchanged" state for so long had been broken, or that Teacher Zed himself had changed.
After some searching, it was found that Zed was neither doing physical training in the paradise nor performing dissections on zombies in the operating room.
Finally, following the faint smell of corpse in the air, Yi Chen found an area deeper than the paradise, an area he had never been to before, or a place where there was no need to go.
Hillside Warehouse
Not only was Zed labeled as a "special combat force" and kept at the bottom of the academy,
He is also a corpse researcher. Every once in a while, the college will send a large number of corpses for Zed to conduct research in this area, and he will also produce a lot of useful articles and feed back to the organization.
Those corpses that have been studied, have realized their value and have intact limbs will not be burned, but will be collected by Zed and stored in this secret and huge warehouse at the bottom of the mountain.
"This... is this so much? I've been here with Mr. Zed for so many years and I didn't even know about this place."
As Yi Chen burst out with the greatest strength of his body, he pushed the steel door open horizontally with his left and right hands. The scene before him shocked him.
Tens of thousands of corpses were neatly hung in the warehouse, and the hanging method used was the same - "an iron hook pierced directly through the neck and hung the corpse on the top of the warehouse."
Yi Chen also noticed that each corpse had undergone sophisticated corpse modification. Even though some of their faces were tattered, their muscle textures were quite beautiful.
Among the densely packed corpses was the body of Mr. Zed.
His aura was actually suppressed to be exactly the same as that of the corpses. If Yi Chen did not have similar physical attributes and often had deep communication with Teacher Zed on a physical level, he would not have been able to detect it at all.
Seeing this, Yi Chen did not dare to disturb his teacher's special practice. He considered whether to leave a note and leave.
Clang! An iron hook connected to a cable was suddenly thrown towards him, and Zed's voice came at the same time: "William, do you want to come up and hang on?"
Without hesitation,
Swish! The hook pierced through the neck and pulled the body up at the same time.
Enjoying the pain of piercing and pulling the flesh,
Yi Chen's body was also hung in the warehouse like a corpse, and happened to be squeezed next to Zed. The two began to talk in this strange state.
"By the way, teacher, what are you doing..."
"With your body and eyesight, you should be able to see what I'm doing, right?"
Yi Chen actually had an answer in his mind. He wanted to elaborate on it, but in the end he condensed it into two words:
“Purify.”
"That's right~ After the nightmare incident, I became a little more motivated and prepared to move deeper into the "corpse" road. This is the current effect.
However, this road is not suitable for you, don't hang around for too long and don't feel the atmosphere here. "
"good!"
Yi Chen still remembers the scene between nightmares.
Teacher Zed was still able to perfectly transform into a corpse that even Catherine could hardly detect in the nightmare arena, which was enough to show his attainments in this area.
"I heard that you failed to become the "First Gentleman". If that's the case, you should choose another path, right?"
"Yes, sir, I might take a longer trip to the Old World."
"Go ahead~ I hope you can bring some surprises when you come back."
"Before I leave, there is something I want to discuss with you, teacher, about the monastery..."
When Yi Chen expressed his concerns, Zed responded with a disdainful smile:
"Don't worry, those guys won't send out any powerful people to hunt you down. They don't have extra manpower to play this cat-and-mouse game. At most, they will have a team of three or four like last time.
The Monastery of Pain is a very special place.
The monks who live there have an important responsibility to keep watch over what is kept deep within the monastery."
"What?"
"Prisoners from the Old World. The Monastery of Pain is the source of the epidemic and also the only prison there. With the defeat of the Old World, the number of people they can recruit is decreasing.
They already suffered a loss last time, so they probably won’t invest more energy in you.”
"The prison of the old world!" This was the first time Yi Chen had heard of it. For a moment he was full of curiosity about the monastery and even hoped to have a chance to visit it for himself.
