The final gentleman

The night passed.

It has to be said that this money is well spent, especially for this kind of mission location that is far away from Zion City. It is very necessary to be able to replenish the mental state during the ride.

The next day,

Yi Chen, who was still awake from his sleep, suddenly felt a tingling sensation from a plant cone in his body and sat up suddenly.

After waking up, this feeling not only did not disappear, but became more obvious.

There are even many plant seedlings emerging from the pores, as if they are warning something.

Jin was still sleeping, with one long leg folded on top of the other, and drool was still seeping out from between the gaps in the mask.

Yi Chen tried not to disturb her rest as much as possible, went to the front of the carriage, opened the window, and asked the driver wearing a steel mask.

"Excuse me, has this reached the Jose Valley?"

"We just arrived a minute ago, can you feel anything unusual here?"

"Yeah...there's something very wrong with the plants here."

"Well, the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground is obviously different every time. I hope you can deal with the matter here as soon as possible. If it continues to deteriorate, it will need to be handled by high-ranking gentlemen in the organization.

You will arrive at [Black Eye Stronghold] in half an hour, and you can prepare to leave now. "

"Thanks."

Yi Chen returned to the bed and sat cross-legged, adjusting the plants in his body to suppress the discomfort.

Soon.

The carriage went around a secret and steep mountain road and climbed a hill.

This mountain is located in the southwest of the Jose Valley. Standing on the cliff, you can have a general view of the forest, and naturally you can also peek into the village of Shebolt, where the incident occurred.

On the top of the cliff, six black tents with organization logos were erected.

In the middle stands a black tower-shaped obelisk, about six meters high, with an eye pattern carved on the top. This may be the origin of the name "Black Eye Stronghold".

On the last section of the mountain road leading to the stronghold, there were a large number of metal roadblocks along the way, forcing the carriage to stop early.

"Kim, we're here."

Hissing flow~

When Jin woke up, he skillfully sucked back the saliva hanging on his lips, adjusted his mask, crossed his legs and slowly sat up, stretching.

He looked nonchalant, without any sense of nervousness before the mission.

"Did you arrive so early? I slept too late yesterday~ I really want to sleep for a long time."

Wear a set of skull-style ties with a red patterned shirt.

Put on trousers and casual leather shoes,

Wear a very eye-catching colorful suit,

When Jin got off the carriage and found that he didn't reach the stronghold directly, his temper immediately rose.

"Do we still have to walk such a long way? These useless guys came here so long in advance. Not only can they not accomplish anything, they also set up these useless things and waste our time."

Dang!

Perhaps out of anger, Jin kicked the nearest metal barricade.

Hundreds of kilograms of roadblocks were kicked straight away, and the area where they were kicked was severely dented, causing them to fall down the hillside.

This kick scared Yi Chen.

"Isn't this guy Jin's power comparable to Darkberg?" He obviously looks about the same physique as me, and his legs look like they haven't been exercised, yet he actually has such strength.

Is it because of controlling the body? 』

Little Putao’s voice of consciousness came at this moment:

"It's not just as simple as controlling the body, after all, William can also control the body~ I can feel a weak energy explosion from the kick just now.

I estimate that this human being can carry out a 'controlled explosion' between the flesh, thereby obtaining an instant burst of power.

Her control over the body, especially at the level of massacre, is far superior to hers!

It is rare to see such a powerful human being. You must become a good friend with this person. 』

Little Putao became more and more excited as he talked and felt like he was almost drooling... It was even possible that once Yi Chen died accidentally, he would go to Jin and call each other sisters.

Because the roadblocks were destroyed,

A small detachment of gentlemen stationed here came at once,

Woof woof woof! The leader also had a two-headed dog as a pet, and he started barking when he saw Yi Chen.

Who knows, this behavior made Little Putao angry, an eyeball appeared on his shoulder, and the dog immediately hid behind its owner with its tail between its legs.

The leading gentleman has a mustache and a standard brown morning coat.

He recognized the identities of Yi Chen and Jin at a glance, as well as the reason for coming here... There was a hint of helplessness, even self-denial, on his face.

"Are you the supporters sent by Gethsemane? We obviously haven't reported the difficulties we encountered here yet... Has the delay been too long?"

Yi Chen took the initiative to take a step forward, saluted and said: "That's right, we were entrusted by Instructor Bailey to help deal with the affairs of Shebolt Village and the New Life Church.

William, she's my friend Kim. "

"I am Wilmer, the temporary head of Black Eyes Stronghold, come with me."

The other party also did not mention the destruction of the roadblock.

Even though the Yi Chen and Jin who greeted them looked like they were only in their twenties, he did not have any prejudice, but was full of awe of Gethsemane.

When entering the stronghold,

The gentlemen living in the tents all stuck their heads out and curiously observed the young reinforcements sent by Gethsemane.

They all had dark circles under their eyes, were depressed, and some of them were bandaged.

The entire stronghold was lifeless, and there was even a hint of silent despair.

Wilmer led the two men to stand on the cliff and pointed to the woods in the middle of the Jose Valley.

"That's the area we need to investigate. It's a natural fortress, and it's growing and expanding every day."

Yi Chen and Jin looked along the direction,

In the middle of the forest, a large number of trees grow densely to form a circular city wall, enclosing the inner area where Shebolt Village is located, covering approximately 1/5 of the entire forest area.

The top of the surrounding area is also obscured by dense branches and leaves, making it impossible to see the inside.

Not only that,

The tree wall structure that forms the blockade is still expanding outwards.

The thickness of its tree wall has reached a terrifying hundreds of meters. If the root cause of the disease is not eliminated, it will one day invade the entire Jose Valley.

However, Yi Chen's expression remained unchanged.

This blocking structure is related to plants and should not be difficult for him.

"Tell us in detail the progress of your investigation during this period, and give us a copy of Shebolt Village's [Rules]."

“Progress is poor and there is very little useful investigative information.

Even if there is an "eye tower", there is no way to peek into anything inside.

I am considering that if you two cannot make an effective investigation within three days, I will arrange for a group of people to return to Zion and ask for the support of senior gentlemen. "

These words once again made Jin angry, and he immediately retorted:

"Don't compare the two of us with trash like you... Just tell me if you don't have any useful information. It's a waste of time."

Jin's words actually did not offend the other party.

It seems that Wilmer, the interim head, admitted to some extent that he was incompetent in this matter.

"I prepared the investigation materials yesterday and put them in a file bag with the village rules. You can just take them... I just want to ask you one thing.

If you can successfully enter the blocked area, please help find the two missing gentlemen teams and bring them out as much as possible. "

Yi Chen stood in front of Jin in advance and responded to him in a friendly manner:

"Well, we will try our best to find the missing team. If possible, we will bring them back in advance."

"Thanks."

When handing over the documents, Wilmer deliberately lowered his voice and whispered to Yi Chen: "Do you need us to provide an investigation team to enter the forest with you?"

Yi Chen responded with a smile:

“If you have the spare capacity and are confident enough, you can choose to investigate simultaneously with us.

However, judging from the number of gentlemen in the current stronghold and the condition of everyone, it is best to stay here.

As you said before, if we fail to send back valid information within three days, we will report the situation here to Zion. "

When leaving the stronghold, Yi Chen deliberately reached out and patted the temporary person in charge on the shoulder twice...

Tonight at twelve o'clock, rush!
