The final gentleman
Chapter 126 The Essence of Skin
After crossing the black bridge and completely leaving the jurisdiction of [Shenhide Mansion],
Director Aggie wanted to say something.
After a small glance at Chamberson, he swallowed all the words wrapped in his mouth back into his body. After patting Yi Chen heavily on the shoulder, he adjusted the slope of his hat and returned to the gentleman's hall alone.
Chamberson led Yi Chen to the nearby elevator and headed to the lower street area. The destination was naturally a tailor shop.
"Professor, are these skins used to upgrade clothing?"
"Since you already have a pair of suitable spellcasting gloves, there is no need to create fabric supplies.
You have never upgraded your clothing since you entered the city, that is, by adding additional gentleman's skin to increase the 'leather content' of your clothing.
Furthermore, your costume was severely damaged in this incident and will require some skins to completely repair it. "
Now that this was mentioned, Yi Chen took this opportunity to ask Professor Chamberson some questions about 'clothing'.
“When I was reading books, I saw some explanations about ‘gentlemen’s clothing’.
A very important point was mentioned - [skin content].
Gentlemen accepted by the organization can obtain additional "Gentleman's Skin" as a reward by performing various tasks. Most of them will use it to complete their clothing and increase the [skin content] of the clothing. In the completion of this clothing gradually reaches the maximum value in the process.
Once the maximum value is reached, the tailor will refuse to add leather.
What happens if the so-called maximum skin content is exceeded? This is not mentioned in the book. "
“If it exceeds the limit, it will be out of control, and the clothing will give birth to an autonomous consciousness that cannot be controlled by the individual, and eventually devour the gentleman’s subject. This process is also called [peeling].
This happened to Zion in the early days when he was not familiar with the use of leather.
The more famous one is the 'Charles Family Incident' that happened 75 years ago. The eldest son of the family, Charles Fudier, was obsessed with the power provided by gentleman's leather and forced excessive amounts of leather into the clothing room through unconventional means.
As a result, his entire family was skinned overnight.
When a nearby patrol team discovered something unusual and rushed into the family house, it was filled with skinned corpses.
There was also a "clothing body" that swallowed up the entire family's skin. Fortunately, a high-ranking gentleman passing by nearby worked with a doctor to suppress the body. The clothing body was suppressed and re-disassembled into the gentleman's skin to calm down the incident. "
Yi Chen actually had doubts about the "gentleman's skin" for a long time. What exactly is this thing that is alive and can connect to ancient systems.
"Clothing body? Could it be said that the essence of gentleman's skin is a pathogenic product?"
"To be more precise, it should be called "controllable pathogens" or "beneficial pathogens."
This pathogen can be controlled and exploited by us humans, greatly improving our survival rate and allowing human civilization to continue in such a world.
After hundreds of years of organization development, it is enough to prove the stability and controllability of Gentleman's Skin. "
"Is that really the case..." Yi Chen nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to ask, "Then the reason why the "First Gentleman" exists underground in that form, could it be said that the meaning of his existence is [control of the skin] 】? "
Professor Chamberson answered without hesitation: "His dedication to connection, control and output is selfless, great and unparalleled... It is precisely because of their willingness to dedicate themselves to the great existence, organization and human civilization." be developed and continued.”
"Um."
Yi Chen was not too surprised, or he had expected it, and just responded briefly.
In his opinion, gentleman's skin is like probiotics in the human body, coexisting and surviving with people, and jointly resisting foreign invasion and pathogenic bacteria that can induce various diseases.
"Professor, except for mine, which is taken directly from the [First Gentleman], where did the other ordinary gentleman's skins and the gentleman's skin with the ancient atmosphere come from?"
"With your powers of observation, you should have discovered something deep inside the mansion, right?
The iron chains used to restrain the "First Gentleman" are covered with his derivative skins. These derivative skins will continue to grow and spread, and will be passed to the ground through the iron chains, and finally reach the Shenpi Mansion.
After special processing by the clergy, these derived skins were cut, sorted and collected.
Different derived skins carry different amounts of the aura of the old world.
If the First Gentleman's skin is counted as 100% content, these derived skins will not exceed 50% at most.
The content of 30% to 50% is defined as leather that carries the atmosphere of the old world.
Content of 15%~30% is defined as the most common gentleman's leather.
Leather with a content of less than 15% is extremely poor and is often packaged and sent to tailor shops under the organization to be used as 'leftovers'. "
Yi Chen nodded and turned the topic back to clothing:
"That's it! There is another problem, since the 'maximum leather content' of gentleman's clothing varies from person to person.
Is it possible that there is a powerful human being who can completely control [skin]? He can perfectly adapt to the skin of the first gentleman, and can wear clothing containing 100% leather... Wait, that's not right! "
Speaking of this, Yi Chen immediately realized something.
Chamberson smiled and answered: "Yes, such a human being does exist... that is the [First Gentleman] himself."
At this time, Yi Chen's expression had changed.
He stared at the 'First Gentleman's Leather' installed in the black box, felt the touch of leather in the clothing room, and recalled the First Gentleman's state, and couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine.
"If I have been using the skin of the First Gentleman to fill my clothes, and one day it reaches 100% content and I can fully control it, then..."
At this point, Chamberson stopped.
"I just discussed this issue privately with Director Aggie, and you may really have this possibility.
You should also feel that this time when you walk in the Shenpi Mansion, you are watched and spied on more than last time. The clergy pay more attention to you obviously.
And [The First Gentleman] gives you a large piece of leather measuring 15×15cm all at once, not because he is sorry for destroying your body, but because you are favored. "
These words made Yi Chen stunned. His skin felt numb and goosebumps spread all over his body.
Chamberson patted his shoulder gently and comforted:
"Don't be nervous, it's just that I'm being favored, which means [alternative].
There are at least ten gentlemen who are favored in Zion... most of them have exceeded the limits of human beings, and even if they are chosen, they will be mainly considered.
Moreover, if that time really comes and you are determined to be the best candidate by Shenpi Mansion, as your first mentor, I will ensure your ‘right to choose independently’ at all costs.
If you don't want to be the first gentleman, I can guarantee you to leave Zion.
Therefore, don’t worry too much about skin matters, which will affect your self-development...make full use of the resources at hand, follow the most appropriate path, and reach a higher level.
At this stage, increasing the skin content is only good for you. When it reaches the maximum value, you can even stimulate the ancient power in it, combine it at a deeper level, and greatly improve your disease-removing efficiency. "
"Thank you Professor Chamberson."
【Unnamed tailor shop】
When the two came to the door of the dressing room again, Mr. Ivan was actually at work.
After waiting for about an hour, a familiar figure walked out.
"William, what a coincidence!"
It was Jin who walked out. Her clothes were completely damaged in the church incident. Now she asked Mr. Ivan to make a shirt of the same pattern.
"Kim, what's the leather of your costume?"
"Didn't you get one in the mission? Then you chopped up the flesh of the holy fetus and extracted a lot of skin from the missing team. Isn't that enough?"
Jin Ziran also noticed the black box in Yi Chen's hand, stepped to his side, and whispered in his ear: "Are you sure you want to use such a large piece of skin to increase the skin content? It's a bit dangerous."
"Um."
Seeing Yi Chen's firm eyes, Jin didn't say anything more.
"You're very confident~ I'm also looking forward to it. I want to see how the guys who manage the skins in Zion will react when you fully control these [skins]... Go in and make clothes, I'll wait outside. you."
I recommend a novel written by a book friend, "My Secret Office". If you are interested, you can read it. The introduction is as follows:
The male protagonist is a detective who runs an agency. He relies on his own power to control the dreams of others. He pretends to be a master through a method similar to dreaming. He uses his acting skills to play multiple roles and builds his own power network behind the scenes. Come and help yourself explore a mysterious world created by humans after the fall of the gods.
