The final gentleman
Chapter 12 Green Lake Town
After more than six hours of driving, it was already dusk.
When Yi Chen stepped off the carriage with excitement,
I didn’t see any organization signs or any relatively grand buildings.
What comes into view is another small town,
About two hundred meters behind you, there is a huge billboard beside the road.
【Welcome to Green-Lake】
This medieval town retains a sense of vitality.
The buildings here are mostly made of slightly yellowed white bricks, with brown and red roofs.
Maybe it's because there are no factories in small towns.
The air is fresher and the overall light transmittance is better.
You can feel the last traces of the sunset on your skin.
Combined with the spacious streets between the towns, neatly arranged trees, large areas of lawn coverage, and large lakes close to the towns, it gives people a sense of tranquility and natural comfort.
It is a tourist destination far away from industrial cities and returning to nature.
Seeing such a vibrant town,
There was a slight feeling of plant restlessness in Yi Chen's body, and various physiological needs rushed out quickly.
"Wait a mininute……"
Quickly get into the woods beside the road,
The moment he unbuttoned his belt, a feeling similar to a flood flooded his lower body.
After disposing of the waste water accumulated in the body,
Since I haven't eaten for a long time,
His eyes were immediately drawn to the lush vegetation around him, and his saliva began to flow.
In the end, I couldn't hold it back. After confirming that there was no source of infection, I bit directly on the bark of the tree, and also pulled off some leaves and grass to eat together.
Plants that fall into the abdomen are quickly converted into nutrients with extremely high efficiency.
The whole process only takes less than five minutes.
Yi Chen has completely recovered to his mental state before taking the bus.
Just as he walked out of the woods and returned to the carriage,
Within the field of vision, carriages of different types were arriving in this small town one after another.
The people who came out of these stables were all under thirty years old.
Dress appropriately,
behave gracefully,
Each has its own independent style,
Yi Chen tried to ask the driver next to him, "Are these people coming here to join the organization?"
“Every month, many people come from all over the country to participate in the organization’s assessment.
Some are born into well-known big families, and some of their ancestors are members of the organization.
Some come from special training groups designed to deliver talents to the organization.
There are very few people like you who come from civilian backgrounds. Due to occasional opportunities, they are spotted by members of external organizations and are temporarily sent here for assessment. "
"OK."
“This town is just a temporary transit point;
In [three days], members of the organization will come to Green Lake Town to take you, the assessors, to the [Headquarters]. Before that, you need to stay here temporarily.
I have other jobs, so I won’t go into details. "
After the coachman completed conveying the relevant information, he drove the carriage and quickly disappeared from sight.
"Need to wait here for three days?
Could it be said that they want to wait until enough people have taken the assessment before they can all go to the organization? "
Yi Chen touched the silver coins in his pocket and strode towards the Green Lake Town in front of him.
Just as he was approaching the first building in the town, he caught a glimpse of three young men walking in his direction from the corner of his eye.
The blond young man at the head took off his hat and put it on his chest.
"Hi, friend! My name is Edmund, from the Mariano family.
Interested in joining our team?
We can take care of each other in the subsequent organizational assessment, and I also have some confidential information about the assessment here, and I am willing to take the initiative to share it. "
Behind the blond Edmund, there was also a tall and cool woman wearing a feather-decorated hat, and a strong Nordic man nearly two meters tall who was carrying a big sword.
Yi Chen noticed,
The main focus of this group of people was not on him, but on the 'little grape' on his shoulder.
For Yi Chen, who has just traveled through time and came here, if he can join a team, he can also get a lot of useful information, but some problems and potential risks will also come with it.
Just when Yi Chen hesitated for a moment,
The voice of ‘Little Grape’ came from my brain:
"I'm not used to teaming up with strangers. The two of us are enough... there's no need to mix with them." 』
This suggestion allows Yi Chen to make an immediate decision.
After a slight bow, he turned around and left without even announcing his name.
Seeing Yi Chen's back gradually disappearing into the small town,
The blond Edmund showed an embarrassed expression, "Huh? Is it because I'm not a gentleman enough, or for some other reason... did I actually leave without looking back?
Or is it that this guy is quite powerful and doesn’t even bother to form a team with us. "
The woman behind Edmund lightly wiped her nose with her black nails and whispered:
"He has an indelible smell of the 'dead' on his body, plus he wears a gentleman's clothing that favors a gloomy style... This young man should come from the [Cemetery] under the organization's control.
The things on his shoulders must also belong to the cemetery.
Perhaps it was a rare necromancy type, so naturally such a strong person would not accept the invitation.
And if we stay with him, we will most likely be disposed of as corpses. "
Edmund spread his hands, "Hey, what a pity~
But since we are in the same batch of assessments, we should be able to meet each other in the future.
I really want to see the standard of the cemetery. "
…
In Green Lake Town,
Yi Chen walked on the spacious main road,
Although the townspeople living here also wear masks, there is no sense of death at all.
There are also relatively many townspeople out and about, and they will take the initiative to say hello to each other.
When seeing a foreign visitor like Yi Chen, he would tilt his head slightly to show friendliness.
However,
Such a comfortable and pleasant town does not bring a real sense of comfort.
As the walking time increased, and as we went deeper and deeper into this small town, I became increasingly impatient.
When this impatience reaches a certain limit,
Yi Chen suddenly tilted his head.
What comes into view is a two-story building with a sense of age and retaining the medieval style.
The wooden plaque hung on the front door with a metal bracket has been severely eroded by rain, and the words on it can barely be read clearly.
【Green Shade Hotel】
His intuition told him that this hotel was very important.
Maybe there is something,
Maybe it has something to do with the secret of the town,
"The feeling of Green Lake Town is not as comfortable as it looks from the outside... The longer I walk on the streets, the more uncomfortable I feel. I am even more willing to patrol the cemeteries."
There's something not right about this town, and the hotel in front of me stands out even more.
Is it possible...the assessment has already begun?
Little Grape, can you hide first? 』
As Yi Chen made the request,
The little grape rolled into the inside along the collar, burying more than half of the meat ball between the skin, completely hidden under the clothes.
Resolutely set foot in the hotel.
bell! The doorbell rings.
The stronger scent of incense wafted towards me,
Black leather shoes creaked as they stepped on the hotel floor paved with wooden slats~
The windows in the corridors are all closed with wooden bars, and have the words "under maintenance" written on them.
Uneven white candles were placed in the aisles, burning weakly to replace sunlight.
A man in his late thirties stood behind the counter, looking at a dead fish specimen.
The bloated and bulging bags under his eyes squeezed his dull and small eyes. He glanced at the young man who came in, and quickly looked away again.
He was also holding a brown wine bottle with not much left in his hand.
It wasn't until Yi Chen came to the counter that he slowly turned around.
The vague local language was squeezed out with difficulty from the mouth full of yellow teeth:
"Want to stay in a hotel?"
With a unique smell,
It smells like a rat crawled into the stomach pouch and then the rat got drunk and drowned in it.
"Is there any room left?"
"There are rooms everywhere, but many of them have not been cleaned... It's one silver coin a day. If you want to stay, you can choose a key."
The boss put down the bottle,
Throwing a bunch of rusty key rings on the counter.
【0206】
Yi Chen buckled down a silver coin and deliberately selected the key corresponding to the guest room on the second floor.
You can use this to go to the second floor of the hotel to find out.
You can also get a pretty good view from high places, and you can observe the conditions in small towns during the day.
Climb the loose stairs to the second floor.
There are also moldy mattresses piled up at the corner of the stairs, and you have to squeeze through them sideways.
The printed wallpaper in the corridor was also peeling off in large areas and was damp and moldy.
Naturally no one stays in such a hotel.
Yi Chen is probably the only guest this month.
Crunchy~
When I walked on the groaning floor to the door of the room,
A feeling of uneasiness pulled Yi Chen's vision towards the end of the second floor corridor.
"what is that……"
At the end, to the right, there are seven different padlocks hanging on the wooden door with the room number [0213].
There were also several black mold spots the size of egg pancakes all over the wooden door, as if it was sick.
While Yi Chen was staring intently,
A faint wave of firelight flashed on the side of his face,
When you turn your head,
A pale human face suddenly appeared in front of him.
Frightened, Yi Chen subconsciously touched his waist, ready to take out the silver ax from the cemetery.
However,
The person who came was just the innkeeper from earlier.
The candlelight made his already weak complexion even paler.
"By the way...I forgot to tell you.
I have a sister who is seriously ill and lives in the end room. I don’t want to get close to her. She is afraid of strangers. "
After saying that,
The boss turned around, hunched over and walked downstairs.
The light and weak body made no sound when stepping on the floor.
