The final gentleman

Yi Chen has never worn such elegant and unique clothes.

Although it is ready-made clothing,

Its fit is over 90%, which does not affect movement at all, and the fabric that sticks to the skin is also quite comfortable.

only,

The landlady's face, hidden under the gauze, showed dissatisfaction.

“It’s a pity that you are not a member of the organization yet, and you don’t have enough time.

Otherwise, I can at least semi-customize you a more personal and useful clothing... I will wear this temporary 'casual clothes' for now, hoping it will not affect the organization's evaluation of you. "

"I'm very satisfied."

"When you pass the organization's assessment, you will get a free [full customization] opportunity.

At that time, you can choose any tailor shop under the organization to have your clothes tailor-made, and you will truly feel the importance of dressing.

remember,

The perfect piece of clothing can 'stimulate' your spirit and create your own style.

Wrapping your body in precious, ancient fabrics will determine who you are to show to the world, and will also determine whether you can survive in the current world.

You must put a lot of energy into perfecting your outfit and pursuing perfection. "

"knew."

Yi Chen took out a complimentary mechanical watch from his pocket.

Only then did he realize that the time was approaching noon, and there was only half an hour left before the carriage set off.

After saying goodbye to the landlady in a hurry, he quickly rushed to the entrance of the town.

Although I am in a bit of a hurry,

But when passing by a butcher shop, Yi Chen still spared some time and bought all the pig's and cow's eyes, a total of thirteen.

No processing is required,

When handing these so-called ‘grapes’ to the black meat balls,

Put the whole piece directly into your mouth, burst the juice in the cavity, and then chew it carefully.

The black fluff all over the body floated gently during the eating process, which was very enjoyable.

I ate five pills in a row before I was finally satisfied.

The remaining 'grapes' are also swallowed whole by it, stored and kept fresh... and then taken out for consumption when needed.

Yi Chen asked curiously:

"Is this all you eat?"

“Grapes are my staple food, and the nutrients contained in the juice are indispensable to my body.

Of course other foods can be eaten, but they are not so important. "

"You don't seem to have a name."

"Yes, I am assembled from the fragmented corpses in Cemetery No. 6, fermented and assembled. Those corpses are all nameless, and I don't have such a thing as a [name]."

"In that case, why not call you [Little Grape]?"

"OK."

Meatball danced its arms like waves again, seeming quite satisfied with its new name.

After rushing for the last five minutes, we finally arrived at the entrance of the town.

Two sturdy brown horses pulled a huge wooden carriage, which could accommodate at least eight people.

It is worth noting that

The horses all wear special respiratory masks and are covered with multiple layers of fabric, leaving only their hooves exposed.

As the departure time is approaching,

The carriage was already packed with townspeople wearing masks and tightly wrapped.

They all carried large and small bags and were ready to leave the small town of Easton.

Yi Chen quickly came to the white-haired coachman and quietly showed his cemetery business card.

Who knows,

The coachman, who looked old and decrepit, quickly cast his eagle-like eyes and looked up and down at the young man in front of him.

The mouth holding the old cigarette slowly opened, and white smoke came out together with the sound,

"You sit at the back, the journey is long..."

"knew."

When stepping into the carriage,

Maybe because of the elegant dress,

Maybe it's the little grape standing on the shoulder.

The townspeople who crowded the carriage tried their best to help him out, and some even felt fearful and trembled slightly.

They pressed as close to each other as possible to make a space for Yi Chen.

The carriage is moving,

Although the outer layer of the wooden roller is wrapped with a thick rubber ring, you can still feel strong or weak bumps.

Because I slept too short last night,

The boring car ride quickly aroused fatigue. Yi Chen rested his head on the wooden floor of the carriage, and fell into a dream surrounded by bumps and shaking.

I don’t know how long it’s been,

A burst of restlessness in the carriage made Yi Chen wake up and looked at his watch out of habit.

"Have you slept for more than three hours?"

Some of the passengers in the carriage were missing, presumably because they got off midway.

The originally crowded space now allows you to stretch out your arms and legs and move around a bit.

only,

These passengers seemed restless, and the fear of death could even be seen directly in their eyes.

They took out more cloth from their respective luggage rooms to wrap their bodies, even wrapping themselves up like mummies.

Just when Yi Chen was doubtful,

The coachman's voice came from the front:

"We are about to enter the [Gray Zone]. Everyone should try to reduce breathing and unnecessary physical activities, and clear their minds... If any symptoms appear, regardless of severity, they will be treated as 'illness'."

After talking,

The driver outside spread a thick black cloth and covered the carriage.

Darkness falls,

Only the kerosene lamp on Yi Chen's waist could dispel the darkness in the carriage.

【Gray area】

Another term I have never heard of,

Analyzing the coachman’s words, it should be a special area suffering from disease infection.

At this time,

Little Grape sent a message:

"With me here, and you yourself receiving [pathogen essence] of high quality,

Common gray areas like this don't pose much of a threat to you.

The only thing you need to pay attention to is the other people in the car. Once you find something abnormal about them, you need to act as quickly as possible. 』

"knew. 』

Yi Chen actually really wants to see what the so-called [Grey Domain] is like.

Unfortunately, the carriage was closed, so we had to focus on the interior.

In the process of traveling through the gray area,

Except for the bumping sound, the carriage was completely silent.

Passengers sat like wooden figures, some even praying or kneeling.

One hour,

two hours,

There was still no sound of the driver's voice, and no one knew whether they had passed through the gray area.

at this time,

An old woman whose body was wrapped in crimson cloth suffered from slight body twitching.

Due to the long-term turbulence, such anomalies were not noticed by other passengers.

However,

Yi Chen has moved his right hand to the ax handle at his waist.

Within a few seconds,

The old woman leaned forward and made a vomiting motion,

Hiss... black smoke rises.

The mask and fabric worn on the old woman's face were completely corroded by her own vomit.

A big scarlet mouth with torn corners and no skin was exposed.

Even the tongue becomes like a tube, constantly flowing out corrosive black liquid,

Buzz!

Yi Chen swung the silver ax almost immediately,

Just when the ax blade was about to cut into the opponent's neck,

Suddenly,

A tiny bullet the size of a grain of rice was shot from the front of the carriage.

A precise hit on the back of the old woman's neck, crushing the "pathogenic abscess" hidden in the throat...

With almost no bloodshed,

The old woman collapsed on the floor and stopped moving.

At this time, the driver's extremely stern scolding came from the front of the carriage:

"Do you want to cut open her neck and let the body fluids in the arteries spurt out along with the pathogenic residues, infecting everyone here?"

"Excuse me."

After Yi Chen apologized, the coachman's voice returned to its original state.

"But... your only means of killing enemies is an axe.

In terms of reaction alone, it's pretty good.

do one thing for me,

See the burlap bag under the seat? The body was packed up and stuffed into a compartment on the floor. "

"knew."

Perhaps he inherited the identity of the tomb keeper.

Yi Chen was very good at packing corpses and quickly stuffed the packaged corpses into hidden compartments on the floor.

Just listen... a pop!

The corpse was thrown out through the chute at the bottom of the carriage, leaving it to dry and disintegrate in the gray field or become food.

Another hour passed,

The carriage finally passed through the so-called [Grey Domain]

The surviving passengers began to laugh and discuss their new life in the future.

They got off the bus at different locations one after another,

Yi Chen also got off the bus at the terminal as the last passenger.

"We've arrived... get ready for the organization's assessment. I hope you can survive."
