The final gentleman

【Bailey Herta】

The senior instructor of Gethsemane has a hobby of "collecting fingers." Whether they are human or patient fingers, as long as they are distinctive fingers, they can become her collection.

When his disciples perform tasks, they often take back fingers in a flattering manner, and even get some extra rewards if they satisfy Bailey.

Before she became an instructor, she also received training in Gethsemane.

Very coincidentally, Zed was in the same class as her, and they even had a good relationship in private and even had the experience of forming a team, but later they took a completely different path.

When she saw the disciples trained by Zed, she couldn't help but recall some things from those years, which made her no longer reject the non-Gethsemane young man in front of her.

When Yi Chen came back, she handed over a bottle of healing potion and asked: "How is Zed's condition recently?"

"Although he is imprisoned on the ground floor of the teaching building, as long as he wants something, the college will satisfy him. He can even conduct various physical experiments to continue his exploration of the body.

Such treatment made him not care about the matter of 'imprisonment'.

He is currently not only conducting physical training for me, but is also responsible for teaching "Pathology" for our current session. "

Hearing this, Bailey's light green eyes flashed with melancholy.

"The situation is much better than I imagined. It's a pity...this guy's eyes are broken, otherwise he would definitely be able to go further and not be restrained in Zion."

"Do you have a good relationship with Teacher Zed?"

Bailey gave Yi Chen a shut-up look and ended the topic, "Okay, now let's talk about things between you."

"good."

When Yi Chen just sat down at the desk, his right hand was directly grabbed by Bailey. With the help of a monocle, he observed the shape of the five fingers and read the information contained in them.

“Having worked in a cemetery, I’ve never had to take care of my hands.

However, the proportions of the finger joints are appropriate, the nail thickness is moderate, and the blood color is single...the fingers are above average, barely okay. "

When Instructor Bailey let go of his hand, Yi Chen quickly withdrew his palm, worried that the other person would suddenly cut off one of his fingers and use it as a collection.

"Don't worry, I won't take a living person's finger."

Bailey then opened the second drawer on the right side of the desk.

Take out a stack of black documents, and after careful selection, pull out one of the documents.

"There aren't too many 'trouble's that need to be dealt with recently. This is the only one that suits you."

Taking the black document, Yi Chen saw a task format that was completely different from that of the Gentlemen's Hall. The first line of the document did not indicate the task name, but replaced it with keywords.

——

Keywords: [Forest], [Church], [Investigation \u0026 Slaughter], [Ash], [Group Action]

Introduction:

In the village of Shepherd, located in the Jose Valley, a group of small groups emerged a few months ago. They gained support from the villagers and established churches in the valley, calling themselves the "New Life Church."

There was nothing unusual in the first few months. The village still abided by the "rules" set by the organization, and the number of crops and meat products turned in every month increased.

Until two weeks ago, the trees around the village grew wildly overnight, forming a structure similar to a city wall, completely cutting off all contact with the outside world.

It is still growing even today, affecting the ecological environment of the entire Jose Valley.

The organization has dispatched some gentlemen to temporarily station outside the Jose Valley to investigate anomalies in the forest.

At present, the internal area surrounded by tree walls has undergone gray-erosion, and there is an obvious trend of gray area evolution.

Please go to the [Black Eyes Stronghold] in Jose Valley, cooperate with the group of gentlemen stationed there, find out the situation of the village and church groups, bring back key clues, and try to eliminate the root cause of the graying.

Afterwards, corresponding rewards will be given according to the difficulty of the event.

There is no task name or difficulty, just action instructions.

According to the geography books Yi Chen had read before,

The so-called Jose Valley is about three to four hundred kilometers away from Zion. It is a valley woodland surrounded by mountains, with rich and diverse vegetation and animals, and is accompanied by some relatively primitive villages and tribes.

but,

With the beginning of the disease era, most villages began to decline, and some small villages were even "emptied out" within a few days, without any trace of people.

Only a handful of remaining large villages barely exist, but the population is still declining.

It was not until the organization intervened and formulated relevant [rules] for the village that the villagers were finally able to avoid illness and death to a certain extent and barely survive in the village.

The village will hand over 10% of its livestock and crop products to Zion every year in exchange for the gentlemen's indirect protection.

…

Yi Chen whispered: "The New Life Church...don't you know the number of people and related situations?"

Bailey crossed her long legs and polished her fingernails with a knife.

"I will not provide such boring and cumbersome information here. Wait until you arrive at the Black Eyes Stronghold and ask the gentleman there who is responsible for investigating the matter.

However, that group of people are really useless. They still haven't been able to solve the problem after spending so long, forcing us in Gethsemane to arrange personnel to go to support.

If you two don't come today, this task will be handed over to others. "

At this time, Jin suddenly asked a strange question:

"Instructor, have any gentlemen died in this forest or village?"

"Two gentlemen teams completely lost contact while conducting internal investigations through the tree wall. I don't know whether they are dead or not."

"Losing contact...interesting."

Jin's only question was this, and he even got a little excited.

Yi Chen still has some considerations and needs, "Can you provide us with the [rules] of Shebolt Village?"

"You can go directly to the Gentlemen's Hall to get a copy of the relevant rules. If you don't want to waste time, go directly to the Black Eye Stronghold, where there will definitely be a record of the relevant rules.

If there are no problems, you can set off now. "

Jin couldn't sit still for a long time, and pulled Yi Chen's sleeve towards the door.

at this time,

Instructor Bailey suddenly added: "I remembered something, Jin~ you go out first.

I chatted with William alone. After all, it was his first time to go on a mission as our side. "

"All right."

Jin waved his little hand and said goodbye to Yi Chen temporarily.

Wait until the secret door is closed,

Yi Chen only felt his tie being grabbed and pulled towards the desk.

Instructor Bailey's face was almost in front of him,

"I just want to remind you that the little guys who teamed up with Jin some time ago, even the gentlemen who are one year older than her, will all be injured without exception, and the injuries are serious. The most serious ones have died.

She sometimes behaves very uncontrollably,

The area you touched this time has been deeply grayed out, and may even turn into a gray area during your investigation. If she behaves recklessly and has a tendency to risk death, you need to take the initiative to curb her behavior.

If you can come back intact and you two can be a long-term partner in the future, I will also support you.

Jin is one of the talents I have seen who has the most "Executioner Talent". The only thing she lacks is 'controllability'... I hope you can become the most important "control gear" in her body. "

"Since I choose to cooperate with Jin, I will definitely do my best."

"Well~ there's one more thing. Say hello to Zed for me when you have time, if that guy still remembers me."

"No problem! Ms. Bailey, do you know what's wrong with Mr. Zed's eyes?"

“Once located deep in the Gray Realm, this guy paid a heavy price for his recklessness... However, precisely because of his madness, the rest of the team members, including me, survived.

Stop talking nonsense! Let's go now. "
