The Last Gentleman Chapter 771

Chapter 771 The Gift of Death

 On the dark sea,

The 'young man' sitting alone in a canoe appears here again. He will not follow the current to a certain other shore, nor will he be confused by the darkness here. Instead, he will feel like he is going home.

 The 'youth' is Yi Chen. He once needed to reach a certain special state to come to this sea area, but now it seems to be easier.

 Perhaps it was the unprecedented training and refinement in the battle with the clown, or perhaps it was the liberation of deep memories and the deep understanding of death.

At present, he just rested among the coffins and then came to the beach through the sinking of consciousness. He pushed the wooden boat with the word "Yi" engraved on it into the sea, and also put a lot of fishing equipment in the wooden boat.

 After the battle with Art, although Yi Chen learned a lot of new things, his body, which was missing more than 50%, became older, and even began to lose hair and gray hair to a certain extent.

The whole person looks to be between forty and fifty years old, and can no longer be called "youth". However, the hanging black hair and the slender and well-defined muscular body make Yi Chen still look young.

 Concepts are deprived, even consciousness is incomplete.

Yi Chen, who was riding in the wooden boat, still had only his upper body.

While picking up the fishing rod, he also raised his hand knife and slashed it down. The target was actually one of the dead entities following him, and he cut off one of his fingers and used it as bait.

 The fishing started with no distracting thoughts.

Even if the fishhook moved slightly, Yi Chen didn't make any move to lift the rod.

Until there was a strong pulling force, which was enough to pull Yi Chen into the deep sea, he immediately tensed his arms and pulled hard.

A 'dead fish' with fish heads all over its body (basically every three scales corresponds to a fish head) and eight octopuses was hung up. It weighed more than 20 kilograms and was covered in fish. It exudes a strong smell of death.

The whole body is pitch black, and it even feels like each fish head has an eye in its mouth staring at the angler.

 As the fishing behavior ended, the fishing rod in his hand disappeared immediately. It seemed that there was a limit to fishing here, and certain conditions needed to be met in order to obtain the corresponding number of fishing times.

Yi Chen did not pack the fish away, nor did he light a fire to grill it. Instead, he bit the surface of the fish head without doing any treatment.

It took less than five minutes to swallow the last octopus tentacle into the body. There was no nausea at all. Instead, he closed his eyes and carefully controlled the blood flow in his body to carry the nutrients of the dead fish to all parts of his body.

 During this process, Yi Chen also naturally put on the makeup of a dead person.

Slowly, the internal organs and lower body of Yi Chen's body that had been erased from consciousness showed signs of recovery, but it was still not enough.

Yi Chen's face is still a little younger, he is in his thirties and has a few more black hairs on his head.

He knelt on the wooden boat quite devoutly, bowed three times and kowtowed, as if he was thanking the sea for the gift. When completing these actions, it seemed as if some kind of response came from the depths of the Black Sea, which was sensed by Yi Chen in the form of shock waves.

 “Is this a 'reward' for adding Nash to the mix?”

　　Not staying on the sea for too long, as a ray of lighthouse light fell on the ship, Yi Chen's consciousness returned to the aquarium.

He dragged his upper body and crawled on the ground, crawling from the aquarium to the library area.

William's conscious body was drinking coffee and reading a book in the library. The two made eye contact and then returned directly to the physical body and reality.

Buzz!

With a ringing in the ears, the 'second body' controlled by Yi Chen also opened its eyes behind William.

The current location is the chief office in the theater.

Shisan, who has a candle on his head, is cleaning here.

William once again put on the sterling silver monocle that Lorien made for him.

 Little Putao, who looks like a traveler, is leaning on the lounge chair on the second floor and reading a book.

besides,

Ludwig Regan from Zion is also here, his chubby face is facing this way, and his full metal arm is greeting William.

 “Have you not continued your relationship with Little Grape?”

When asked about this, William adjusted his monocle.

“It's just a temporary combination during the performance, and the 'repulsive force' is indeed very strong.

　　While I was hosting the show, I felt the strong repulsion from the evil yang and the abyss in my body many times, forcing me to tighten my neck with a tie made from the umbilical cord to strengthen the boundary.

 It's not as simple as imagined~ Let's first see if we can combine it with Little Grape on a deeper level. If it doesn't work, I'm afraid we'll have to find other ways, such as a tannery or going to the main material plane.

 Let's not talk about my problem first! Because that guy Nash was squeezed dry by Yi Chen.

Moreover, Yi Chen, you seem to have instilled the divinity of [Death] into him during the game. The guy is in a state of half-death and is currently receiving treatment at the clinic temporarily established by Lorian in False Moon.

 The problem is not serious at the moment, but it will take a few days to recover.

Considering that the Duke wants to be alone, Reagan and I jointly created a temporary prosthetic device for you, which can effectively avoid the impact of concept erasure. Do you want to try it? Tda! Please take a look! "

William took out a piece of technological product entirely from the Greedy Ring.

 A mechanical lower body built based on William's template, with a perfect blend of streamlined and geometric lines.

 A metal spinal hole filled with various exposures extends upward from the hip position, waiting for individual installation.

"Um."

Yi Chen separated from William's back with some difficulty, refused William's help and climbed up the metal device on his own.

 With the integration of the spine, the lower body is immediately controlled by the brain,

  It can realize various basic movements, but it is still far behind Nash's perfect mimicry.

Yi Chen was also very polite and expressed his gratitude to Reagan alone, "Thank you very much."

“I am a good friend of William, and if Mr. Yi and William are of the same body, then we are naturally friends, you are welcome! If you have any discomfort during use, you can come to me for troubleshooting.”

Yi Chen didn't say anything more and turned to look at William.

 “Where's Art?”

“After the awards were given, they all left. After all, he and Catherine went too far when they performed in the old world. Staying too long would attract people from the monastery.

 In addition, Catherine left you a letter. "

William took the opportunity to take out a letter with a black heart stamped on it from his suit room.

Unexpectedly, Yi Chen was not interested at all, and waved his hand, "Just look at it for me... I guess it's something she played as her fiancé during the performance."

William also shrugged and had to put away the letter again. At the same time, he suddenly remembered something while talking about Catherine.

“By the way! The group of women from the deep sea are still in Lupu, and the Primarch among them has also expressed interest in you, Yi Chen.

　　You even came to me specifically during the award ceremony and said that you wanted to meet you afterwards.

It depends on your decision, Yi Chen. It would also be great if [Arc Sea] can take the opportunity to establish some relationships.

 In fact, it's not just them, all the audiences who have watched the performance are very interested in you, Yi Chen. You are now a celebrity in Lupu. It is estimated that people walking on the street will take the initiative to ask for your autograph. "

 “I went to see the Duke.”

William spread his hands and said, "Go! The Chamber of Commerce is still in Lupu, you can just go down directly from False Moon.

I still have to count the total amount of fear obtained from this performance, and I have to find a way to hand it over to the circus headquarters. Anyway, we are all busy with our own things.

After Nash wakes up, Yi Chen, if you want to go to the [original tomb] and go deep into death, I will write a letter of recommendation for you. "

While William was saying this, Yi Chen had already walked to the door of the office with his hands in his pockets, and disappeared from everyone's sight when he finished the last word.

Yichen walked out of the theater area alone and walked along the complicated passage inside the false moon to the surface, when a silver light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eye.

 “What's the matter? Mr. Lorien.”

Lorian, with flowing silver hair, was leaning on the edge of the stone in a hidden state, obviously looking for him on his own initiative.

 “Wonderful performance, Mr. Yi.”

A silver coin sliding between Lorian's fingers was thrown up and fell towards Yi Chen, who also grabbed it and felt the possible traps and hidden barriers within it.

 But I felt nothing, just a precious silver coin made of moon crystal,

The front shows the patient form of Lorian with his moon eyes open, while the back shows the Chaos Moon Goddess in a dreamland, with the moon and horns growing on his head.

“This is my personal thank you gift. Thank you for your [beheading] of Art and not letting the performance become his home court. If you have trouble in the future, you only need to toss this coin and the moonlight will shine over.”

Lorian said this with an indifferent expression, and when he turned to look at Yi Chen again, he was already gone.

 “Tsk!”
