Chapter 206: The Chamber of Secrets
Ofarostik College, Chamberson Office.
A small treasure chest made of old-world gold sits on the table, and Chamberson tries to open the lock by pouring controllable wind into it.
As a result, as soon as the breeze was poured, a large amount of gold liquid overflowed between the keyholes and was directly blocked.
"There can never be such a thing on the surface of the old world, William, have you gone to the depths? This kind of old-world gold processing method has never even been seen before, it is too ingenious. β
"Here's how it goes......"
Teacher Chamberson is absolutely trustworthy, Yi Chen did not hide it, and told him in detail about his encounter with the [Old World Merchant] and his gambling.
"I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity, maybe it was the good fortune that staying with that patient zero brought you."
For a moment, Chamberson's "owl eyes" seemed to be able to see endless possibilities from Yi Chen.
"Professor, do you want to see this artifact?"
"It's your private property, show it to me if you want."
Yi Chen took out the golden key from his body and inserted it into the lock hole.
A special-shaped Rubik's Cube engraved with a 'labyrinth-shaped' sulcus circuit on the surface is presented, and its unique structure allows Chamberson to quickly immerse himself in it, and even glimpse some indescribable crazy scenes.
"There is such a wonderful relic!
Relics are often by-products of the growth of life in the Old World after completing an important stage of growth.
This by-product records its growth and remnants of the essentials, and most of them are intuitive, allowing you to identify their specific category and function at a glance, such as the first umbilical cord you get.
This Rubik's Cube is completely different, it hides its properties inside.
If you want to really use this artifact, and if you want to break through the "human limit" with it, you must first decipher and decipher it.
It may take a long time, and it may also produce unknown pathogenic substances during the decryption process, and even trigger some pathotic anomalies.
That's it! I'll arrange a secret room with a seal in the lower street, where you can go and decipher the Rubik's Cube when you have time. β
"Thank you, Professor."
"In addition, due to the special circumstances of the "Relic Incident", there should be some rough inquiries and psychological tests conducted by the staff of the Gentlemen's Hall in the future.
If you are asked about the acquisition of relics, it is a private matter for you and you can choose not to answer.
If you're in trouble, you can reveal the "black umbilical cord", and the Rubik's Cube must not be exposed in Zion.
The value of the three-attribute relics is immeasurable, and it will hook up the greed hidden in the depths of people's hearts, and it will inevitably invite trouble. β
"Got it."
"I'm going to prepare the [Chamber of Secrets] now, and I'll let you know later.
The rest of the time is best to meet with Instructor Bailey, her students didn't come back with you, and you, as the interim captain, need to give her an explanation. β
"Okay."
As Chamberson left, he patted Yi Chen's shoulder with his palm.
β¦β¦
γGethsemaneγ
In the office full of finger display cases,
The long black legs were on the table, and I heard Yi Chen tell the story of the incident,
"If Jin is following the direction of the red lotus's growth, there should be no problem. Instead of dying, the worst-case scenario is that she cannot be defined as a [human] and cannot return to the organization.
She never considered Zion her home anyway, so it didn't matter.
Let her go~"
When talking about this, Yi Chen happened to have a question: "I have heard her talk about Jin's pathological characteristics - [Red Lotus] before, and it seems to be related to 'father'...... What exactly does the specific condition correspond to? β
"It is one of the most dangerous "cancerous diseases", and it is similar to the existence of a hegemon in physical diseases. So far, there are only a handful of gentlemen who can control cancer.
This is related to the tragic experience of Kim's childhood, and you need to find out for yourself, provided that she can come back. β
"Well, I'm sure Kim will come back."
"So sure? It seems that this trip has brought the two of you closer a lot~"
Speaking of which, Instructor Bailey seemed to want to talk to Yi Chen about some personal matters and come up with the same tricks as before.
The soles of the feet covered with black silk flashed,
Grabbing Yi Chen's tie, he tried to drag it onto his desk.
But this time it's different.
Instructor Bailey got a very intuitive feedback - [Heavy].
Compared to before, this time it felt like she was dragging the weight of ten Yi Chen, which almost made her toes cramp.
"How did you get so heavy? It's not exactly weight gain, it's a kind of physical composure...... If you didn't hurry up and rub it for me, it almost made my feet cramp. β
Yi Chen, who was dragged to the desk, couldn't refuse, so he could only pinch his calves with both hands and rub them slowly.
"You're about to reach the limit of your physique, right? And even if you reach the limit, you shouldn't be so heavy...... Has your body changed fundamentally during the journey to the Old World? β
"Yes."
"What has changed, show me."
Yi Chen didn't hide it, after all, Instructor Bailey was also half of his mentor.
One hand is still rubbing the leg,
The other hand grows a chain with needles in the palm of the palm,
The moment the chain appeared, Bailey instinctively jumped backwards and pulled a special blade of varying length from under her desk.
If it weren't for Yi Chen, but a strange gentleman, he might have been directly cut throat and beheaded by Bailey.
The concentration of the disease emitted by the needle-pierced chain far exceeded the norm, and such an alienated chain-like feature could only be seen in the Old World.
Yi Chen hurriedly explained, "Instructor Bailey, the original plant disease in my body eventually became such an iron chain after being infected by the substances of the old world. β
"Pain...... This kind of chain is painful, right? β
"Yes."
"Sure enough! Containing this kind of thing in the flesh, other gentlemen would have died a hundred times a long time ago. I'm afraid that only the constitution of Zed and yours in the whole of Zion can tolerate this disease.
The results of your trip are truly amazing, I can't even imagine what you can achieve after breaking through the limits.
Originally, I wanted to have a discussion with you, but now forget it, being drawn by this thing is enough for me to hurt for a few days and nights, so you might as well go back and have a good 'exchange' with Zede." β
"Hmm."
"When you're ready to break through, remember to let me know if you're willing to show it publicly."
"Do I need to rub your legs for that?"
Instructor Bailey himself bent down and poked his calf, "Don't ...... I don't want to be pierced through my calves by a steel needle, you should have a lot of things to attend to when you just returned to the city, so hurry up and do something else. β
"Okay."
Farewell to the instructor,
Yi Chen immediately went to the power station to meet with Reagan to see what relics the other party had obtained.
Upon arrival, he was told that Reagan was in an important phase of retreat, in the deepest part of the power station, in the [charge zone], which was approved by the director himself.
If you want to meet, you will probably have to wait until after Reagan's breakthrough.
When Yi Chen, who came out of the power station, was about to go back to school to meet Zede,
Cuckoo~
A white owl was already standing on Yi Chen's shoulder in the blink of an eye, guiding him to the 'Decipherment Room' prepared by Chamberson.
The secret room is located next to the nameless clothing store, a remote storefront that has not been rented for many years.
In case there is a big disturbance during the decipherment and decryption, the boss of the clothing store Ivan can also come out to play a round.
The cobweb-covered store is filled with strange models borrowed from clothing stores, and a rusty signboard, "Nameless Warehouse", is plastered as a compartment warehouse rented by a clothing store to store surplus models.
Go through the mannequin and touch the hidden button between the floor tiles, and a secret passage to the basement opens.
The basement, which has been buried deep for several years and has not been used, has been simply sorted out by Chamberson with wind magic,
There are seals on the walls and between the cracks in the ground, and the sound of the wind that lingers in your ears indicates that the barrier has been completed.
"Some superficial problems Ivan will deal with. If the Wind Barrier is destroyed, I'll be the first to come over.
All you have to do is decipher it here. β
"Thank you, Professor."
"Let's continue to be like this and reach a level that exceeds our expectations."
After Chamberson left, Yi Chen found a chair and sat in the center of the basement.
With the help of a kerosene lamp hanging overhead, the first decipherment of the relics began.
