Chapter 35: Leave early
[Jin], who was standing outside the door, had been waving goodbye temporarily, as if the gears in his body had been stuck and time had stood still.
It wasn't until Yi Chen came out of the dressing room again that he returned to his original state.
When I saw Yi Chen's formal, elegant and academic suit, I could probably guess the corresponding career direction.
"Academic style~ It seems that your career is biased towards learning and thinking.
From so far away, I can smell the ancient smell of your clothes, the skin of the "first gentleman", which is amazing.
Unlike me, I can only deal with this old skin mixed with water first, hey~"
The skin corresponding to the assessment of 80 segments, exuding the atmosphere of the old world, is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Jin.
Even threw away the storage box a long time ago,
The "gentleman's skin", which is regarded as a treasure by others, is just casually tucked into the shirt room.
Kim set his eyes on the door of the dressing room, "Mr. Ivan ~ Can I make my costume?" Do whatever you want, as long as you can check your physical condition.
Wait until I get the same skin as William in the future, and then I'll come back to you to remake it. ”
"I won't treat my works casually, come over quickly~ When I finish handling your business, I have to rest for ten days and half a month."
Kim shrugged his shoulders and walked straight to the dressing room.
Since Yi Chen was still standing in the middle, the two happened to pass by...... Jin's fingers also slid onto Yi Chen's shoulders.
"Hey~ I have an idea.
Why don't we form a special team in the future? With our level, we will definitely be able to quickly sweep away the task, and we can even consider applying for a skipping task to do it.
In a short period of time, we can accumulate a large number of high-quality [skins] to complete our clothing,
You can also reach the limit of "person" earlier, and then you will be able to do more truly meaningful things. ”
In the face of Kim's invitation to form a team,
Yi Chen still has a lot of things he doesn't understand about the organization, the world, and the ability career he just got, and he is even in a blank slate, so he naturally won't agree.
"Our growth model may be different, let's talk about it then."
"Boring man."
When Jin's fingers were about to slip off Yi Chen's shoulder, they suddenly exerted force!
The sense of danger that hits in an instant stimulates the plants in the body and tries to build a defensive layer on the shoulder.
however
The fingers slipped down the shoulders normally, and nothing happened, as if some kind of deception, completely defrauding Yi Chen's instinct.
Kim put his flower-colored gloved palm on his hip and shook it slightly to say goodbye...... It shows that he is still looking forward to the future cooperation between the two.
When Kim walked into the dressing room, the secret door closed,
A drop of cold sweat slid down his temples and cheeks, absorbing it by the collar at the same time.
"This man...... It's dangerous, more dangerous than any diseased creature I've ever encountered. ”
meanwhile
The small grapes squeezed out from between the collars and stretched out.
"It is indeed an extraordinary human being~ Even I can feel the killing intent in an instant, and I feel a sense of danger...... But the other party can retract freely, as if nothing had happened.
William, why don't we team up with this guy?
With him, we can save a lot of effort to kill the enemy.
After all, the [profession] you have chosen, combined with the senses I provide, can justifiably say that you are an auxiliary gentleman. ”
"Besides, I'll think about it later."
Xiao Grape did not evaluate Yi Chen's career choice, gentleman's clothing,
But
From the fact that it was bouncing around on its shoulders and shaking its arms like seaweed, it could be seen that he was quite satisfied with Yi Chen's changes.
Yi Chen recalled the conversation just now,
"According to [Kim],
After becoming a gentleman, completing various tasks issued by Zion will also grant skins to complete, rectify, or even remake clothing.
In this process, it seems that you can slowly touch the "human limit" and break through to the next personal stage. ”
The little grape shook its arm,
"It's not that simple! You humans have been imprisoned in a restrictive physical cage for generations, and it takes a great deal to break through the limits and break this 'cage'. ”
"Then let's reach the limit first...... In other words, do you know what the next stage is? ”
"My memory does not contain this knowledge~ I guess it is directly related to ancient creatures and your profession."
"Oh~ By the way, will you kill me, little grape?"
What was originally a relaxing moment of small talk,
Suddenly, Yi Chen's question was introduced into a strange and tense atmosphere.
however
The little grape was not unhappy, but rubbed its eyeballs with her teeth, and said with a smile: "It seems that your costume has detected something, right?" Isn't it dangerous to evaluate me? ”
Yi Chen nodded, "That's pretty much what it means." ”
Grape clasped her two little hands in front of her chest, and her mouth narrowed into a slit like an eyelid.
"I could indeed kill you...... But this comes with preconditions.
If I find that you are no longer 'interesting', full of disgust with yourself and the world, and abandon the desire to explore the outside world, and become a meaningless coward, I will end your life early. ”
Hearing Little Grape's answer,
Yi Chen looked relieved, as if this was the final answer he wanted to get.
"That's good...... Please be sure to supervise the little grapes, if I really become like that, or if there is a trend of change, I will give you two of my grapes, remember to tell me how they taste. ”
"You're so interesting!"
A simple conversation made Xiao Grape's interest increase again.
It spit out half of its eyeballs slightly, rubbing against Yi Chen's cheeks, staining its face with mucus.
Two laughs that were as low as possible echoed on the second floor.
At this moment,
The door opened again downstairs.
"Huh? This tailor shop doesn't seem to be too secretive at all...... Why is there someone again. ”
When the footsteps stepped onto the second floor, the familiar owl came into view.
"Professor Chamberson? Are you done with your business? ”
"The emergency meeting was held on the fly, and the process was very short...... Well!? Here's your outfit! ”
When Chamberson noticed Yi Chen's suit, his eyes widened.
The owl on the shoulder also stared at the swollen eyes, and watched together.
About a minute passes.
"Perfect!
Ivan's craftsmanship has not only not been lost due to injury, but has become more personal! It's just perfect...... Even now, you don't deserve this outfit.
To be precise, it should not be able to play the real role of this costume.
As the "First Gentleman" said, you are still a completely blank piece of paper,
I'm going to give you a series of long-term special training,
So that you can catch up with other gentlemen on the "basic level".
After reporting to the college tomorrow, come directly to my office...... Never mind! Without further ado, go to my office now and draw up a plan for the relevant special training. ”
Chamberson couldn't wait to polish Yi Chen's rare jade.
"That...... Store manager Ivan asked me to stay here, and I will have to review the clothes later. ”
"With me, don't worry about this, I will complete the review."
Chamberson drew a pen with a white feather decoration,
The nib of the pen is carved with the logo of the organization, and the body of the pen is painted with an owl half hidden in the trunk of a tree through ancient lacquer art.
Write down a message note and get stuck in the gap of the secret door.
……
The two of them are about to go to [Omphalo-Centric-Academy, OCA]
Located deep north of the city of Zion,
The exterior of the academy features a high wall separating the academy from the city of Zion, giving it the feeling of a city within a city.
The academy is permanently shrouded in a night full of auroras, and there is no diurnal change, and any observation from the outside will be blocked, and it is extremely airtight.
It is a special college that most gentlemen (except for the Black Letters) must attend,
A gentleman trained by the academy can greatly reduce the mortality rate when performing tasks, exploring the gray area, and facing the sick.
At the same time, it can effectively guide the gentleman group to touch the [human limit] faster and more stably.
