The final gentleman

The description related to [Open Source] couldn't help but remind Yi Chen of the past in the lake, the terrifying existence he saw in the Fish Scale Abyss.

but,

According to Yi Chen’s memories of that scene,

The one who exists in the abyss may have reached a level higher than the open source... It is a deeper and more ancient special level.

There is a certain connection with the origin of the disease.

…

Snapped!

The supervisor snapped his fingers.

Indicates the end of the hourglass timer and seals the document.

As you can see, the behind-the-scenes of the False Moon Incident corresponds to an open-source patient whose pathological characteristics are closely related to the 'moon' and belongs to a rare special species.

His ability to hide beyond the ordinary allowed him to completely hide among humans, eventually leading to a horrific event that nearly destroyed the city.

but,

The open source patient has been killed, and it has been two months since the False Moon incident and was cleaned up a week ago.

All you have to do is go to the abandoned clinic and confirm whether the last bottle of secret medicine still exists.

Captain Edmund tried to ask something deeper:

Can you provide us with the information about the secret medicine?

Only when you successfully bring back the secret medicine and complete the mission, will we be informed of the 'partial information' on whether the secret medicine is suitable for you.

The only thing I can tell you right now is,

The secret medicine developed by Twilight Clinic has been classified as an important secret among organizations because of its 'special effect'.

As the supervisor spoke, he took out four Polaroid cameras and an important photo.

What is shown in the photo is the ‘secret medicine’ specially developed by Twilight Clinic.

The mottled glass bottle is filled with silver liquid, and the oak stopper at the mouth of the bottle is covered with disgusting stains. From the yellowed label on the bottle, you can roughly see a line of handwritten, crooked handwriting.

Twilight Clinic's original research and development - Twilight Silver Liquid - Dr. D.M Mycroft.

The manager’s fingers continued to tap on the surface of the photo like tapping on a telegraph machine:

Find the secret medicine left behind based on the style of the medicine bottle in the photo... If you search the clinic and still can't find it, take photos of every corner to prove that the secret medicine has been stolen.

It's that simple. If there are no problems, you can set off now.

Edmund immediately responded: We are preparing to set off tomorrow.

No problem, you are newcomers after all! As long as you complete this task before the end of this month... If there is nothing else, today's conversation will end here.

Wish ya'll good luck!

Just when everyone was about to get up and leave the table,

Yi Chen, who had been in a state of thinking, suddenly interrupted:

I have a question... Are all the contents of this information true?

The supervisor who had turned his back was stunned for a moment, then turned his head again:

Oh? Do you think the information I personally gave you is false?

“It’s just that there is an invisible sense of dissonance when viewed at a glance.”

“What is given to you is only ‘partial information’. A lot of confidential information has been eliminated. In order to fill in the gaps and keep the article readable, only artificial modifications and additions can be made... A slight sense of dissonance is normal.

Do you have any other questions?

Gone.

The supervisor was quite a nice person. He personally sent the four of them out of the [Gentlemen's Hall] and waved in a very friendly manner when they were leaving.

Looking at the backs of the four people, he whispered:

How far can the recipients of the First Gentleman, and the three outstanding newcomers who have received blue letters, go?

Fine-tune the tilt angle of the high hat,

Turn around and return to the Gentlemen's Hall,

Just as the supervisor walked back to the upper area,

Professor Chamberson, with an owl standing on his shoulder, is already waiting for him.

Oh? Isn't this the famous Bai Xiao? Why did you come to my place free of time? Do you want to take on a dark mission?

Chamberson did not answer the call, but asked straight to the point:

I heard that you handed over the tasks involving the False Moon Incident to William, Edmund and others?

I'm just providing an option and the choice is theirs to make.

After hearing this, Chamberson stepped directly in front of the supervisor.

Although the two are about the same height, Chamberson's aura completely overwhelms the other's.

Aggie, we both know each other.

As the director of the hall, you should know the importance of talents better than I do... The False Moon incident is not completely over, even if it is only a 'very small possibility', once it happens, they will all die.

Director Aggie leaned back slightly and responded with a smile:

I just arranged the tasks according to the algorithm. The level of their team is consistent with the task of retrieving the secret medicine, that's all.

Of course, considering the negligible potential risks involved,

I will arrange for idle senior gentlemen to observe in secret. If there is a danger that far exceeds the mission itself, I will do my best to ensure their safety.

No need to arrange, I will be in charge...wait!

Chamberson suddenly realized something, You kid, you guessed that I would intervene in this matter from the beginning, right?

Director Aggie quickly raised his hands with an innocent look on his face, Huh? I didn't say anything! Since Professor Chamberson happens to be free, I don't need to arrange for other people.

Snapped!

Palms like eagle talons were clasped on the supervisor's shoulders.

Aggie, you seem to be very free recently? You actually still have time to run downstairs and personally receive the new gentleman... How about the two of us jointly guarantee the safety of these little guys?

Anyway, they just went to the Twilight Clinic to retrieve a bottle of secret medicine, so they wouldn't waste much time.

Aiji, who was about to find an excuse to refuse, suddenly felt a wave of killing intent.

Yeah~ That's fine! It's really been relatively empty recently.

These little guys won't set out until tomorrow. Let me go tonight, Professor Chamberson?

As soon as he finished speaking,

Only a white feather fell on the supervisor's shoulder, and Chamberson had disappeared.

Hey~ Forget it a little less.

I didn't expect this white owl to value this student so much. It seems that the young man who took half a year's leave really has some [hidden traits] that I couldn't see.

Forget it~ Just to satisfy your curiosity, let's go play with these young people.

…

Street District

Edmund spent his own money to prepare the necessary necessities for the team to leave the city, such as various medicines, compressed food, camping tents, etc.

When I was about to buy replacement fuel for my kerosene lamp,

Edmund suddenly discovered that the kerosene lamp equipped on Yi Chen's waist was just an ordinary civilian item and was not suitable for a gentleman's battle.

William! Your kerosene lamp needs a new one.

This old-fashioned kerosene lamp is easily damaged in battle...and the place we went to this time has been completely abandoned, and kerosene lamps are often needed to provide long-lasting light.

However,

Yi Chen was still immersed in thoughts about the mission, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

Huh? Kerosene lamp...is there anything special about this thing?

Of course! In such a bad world, any investigation of the outside world may plunge us completely into darkness, and kerosene lamps are indispensable items to carry.

It is also one of the essential items for gentlemen recognized by the organization.

There are also many shops specializing in selling kerosene lamps in Zion. There is still a lot of time left today, let’s go pick one out together?

High-quality kerosene lamps should be expensive, right?

Edmund patted his chest and said, It doesn't matter~ If you don't have enough money, I can make up for it here.

I'll pay it back to you from now on.

Yi Chen did not refuse.

Ever since he was born in the cemetery, he has realized the importance of kerosene lamps.

Looking at my lamp, which was covered in rust spots, was too large, and would creak when running, I really needed to replace it.

Walk into a lighting shop called [Helios's Holy Fire].

He glanced at the price tags at the bottom of the lamp.

Touching the few silver coins left in his waistband, the idea of ​​​​escape quickly emerged in Yi Chen's mind.
