The final gentleman
Chapter 49 Kerosene Lamp and Secret Medicine
expensive.
And it's not that expensive.
Yi Chen's few months' salary in the cemetery plus a special bonus amounted to more than a hundred silver coins, and the cheapest kerosene lamp here cost 500 silver coins.
But it has to be said.
The kerosene lamps sold here are quite good.
The size is compressed to the minimum while ensuring the lighting characteristics, and no matter how you shake it, it will not affect the internal combustion.
The lamp tube and base are made of impact-resistant materials, and some expensive kerosene lamps are even engraved with defensive mysterious runes, which can greatly reduce the probability of damage during battles.
At this time,
Edmund walked out of the special compartment of the shop, holding a special kerosene lamp in his hand.
"William, what do you think of this! It seems to suit you quite well."
Edmund chose a kerosene lamp that was mainly black and had a stuffed crow standing on the top of the lamp tube.
The crow's body has been specially processed, and its body is filled with a special material that is hard but flexible and will never decay.
It is worth noting that
The crow's eyeballs have been replaced with two unique rubies, giving the dead crow an eerily vivid feel.
in addition,
The opening for changing the fuel is specially designed in the style of a 'black-framed wooden door', making the kerosene lamp look like a private cabin, with the bonfire burning inside peeking out of the window and illuminating the outside world.
The waiter in the store introduced enthusiastically as if meeting a big customer:
"The kerosene lamp in your hand is called [The-Crow-Night]. This kerosene lamp is inspired by Mr. Edgar Allan Poe's "The Crow".
It is personally created by our senior lighting engineer, Genome.
Flexible glass and branded with ‘toughness rune’,
Lamp holders, handles and various metal decorations are all taken from cemetery cold iron that is more than ten years old.
Our store will also permanently provide free replacement of long-lasting fuel.
The price is 4,800 silver coins. "
Edmund frowned slightly, "It's a little expensive~ William, how do you feel?"
"It's too expensive. Let's go look elsewhere."
"Fine."
Yi Chen left decisively. Such a sum of money was simply not something he could afford. Upon seeing this, the team members also left one after another.
It's just that Edmund's speed was a little slower. When he walked out, he had an extra handbag with exquisite packaging and the Holy Fire trademark in his hand.
A step forward landed next to Yi Chen, and he hung the handbag on his wrist.
What was packed in the handbag was suddenly a kerosene lamp decorated with crows.
"Um!?"
"William has been resting in the academy since he came out of the cemetery. He probably doesn't have much money... For me, this is just two months of living expenses.
Once we successfully complete a difficult task with three stars or above, we will naturally be rewarded with generous silver coins.
Since this is a subjective purchase, I am not sure whether this kerosene lamp is what you want.
If you really want to pay back the money, just wait until the task is completed and give me half of it. "
Seeing Edmund's sincere face,
At the same time, considering the upcoming difficult gentleman's task, Yi Chen finally accepted it.
"Thanks."
Yi Chen took out the kerosene lamp from his handbag.
The lightness and comfort in the hand are beyond imagination, just like holding on the surface of a soft bird body, soft and comfortable.
At the same time, this dark style of kerosene lamp is also consistent with Yi Chen's overall temperament.
Edmund had already opened a certain distance at this time and looked at Yi Chen's whole body.
“My vision is indeed right, this kerosene lamp is simply tailor-made for you.
By the way, William, do you want to deal with your [long black hair]? Although it also suits your temperament from the cemetery, this kind of long hair may hinder you in battle. "
"Long hair?"
Yi Chen touched his shoulder-length hair that had grown rapidly during his recovery period. He did not reject it, and even liked it.
Almost all of them had short hair during their lifetime.
But now, he really wants to try this longer hairstyle. Perhaps it has something to do with physical changes, and I also want to change.
Moreover, these long hair are also equivalent to 'recording' this special half year, which has a certain commemorative significance.
"It feels good just like this, no need to trim it."
"How about this~ Let Anna tie it up for you. This will be suitable for fighting and keep your long hair. Give it a try."
Under Edmund's instigation, Yi Chen agreed.
With Juliana's skillful operation.
The bangs and temples were kept, and a centered bun was tied at the back. The whole person immediately felt refreshed.
"Hmm~ That's great! This hairstyle suits you... By the way, do you want to change your weapons?"
Edmund's attitude seemed to be preparing to give Yi Chen a 'big renovation'.
"No need, this hand ax is very easy to use."
"Well, the workmanship is indeed good, but it only belongs to the basic equipment category.
If we can get disease crystals or some more precious materials during this mission, you can use them to build more useful weapons when we return to the city.
The weapons for hunting the sick are as important as our limbs. "
"Um."
…
have to say,
The corresponding family behind Edmund is quite wealthy and even has a mansion in Zion.
Later, he took everyone to have a big meal for the day and enjoy a full-body massage before the war.
After a day of recuperating, my body and mind were adjusted to the highest level, and I went to the [Gentlemen's Hall] to submit the task execution document early the next morning.
A high-end carriage directly affiliated to the organization was also waiting for everyone at the entrance of the hall.
Compared with the carriage that Yi Chen rode before, it was several grades higher... It uses horses that have undergone species improvement. Their physical fitness is several times higher than that of ordinary horses, and they have disease resistance and self-healing properties.
You can even see muscle tissue similar to flight feathers on both sides of the horse's body.
The carriage with partition windows and closed curtains is strong and stable, and is also equipped with an emergency power generation device inside.
Once something goes wrong with the horse, electric drive can still maintain high speed, which is enough to escape some pursuit dangers.
After emphasizing some basic issues, the driver officially set off for the destination - [Vinal City].
Although the distance on paper is 51km,
Due to the various mountainous terrain, the journey is expected to take three and a half hours.
While everyone was chatting about the mission, Yi Chen suddenly asked a question that was pressing in his heart.
"What is [Secret Medicine]? It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the course."
for a time,
There was silence in the carriage.
This question was ultimately answered by Edmund:
"It seems that William, you have basically spent your time on yourself in the past six months, so you have not learned any information related to the organization... Let me explain briefly.
Speaking of secret medicine,
Two other important concepts must be mentioned, [doctor] and [clinic].
When we first came to Zion, we met a doctor on the bridge. You should know him well, right? "
"Um……"
Yi Chen heard Edmund say at that time that doctors belong to a group of special people among gentlemen, with special and powerful abilities. They are issued a "doctor's certificate" after being recognized by the organization.
Edmund continued:
"[Clinics] are somewhat similar to [tailor shops]. They are both important institutions (Institutions) established outside with the recognition and financial support of the organization.
The clinic can provide treatment, disease elimination and other medical services to gentlemen on nearby missions or on the way. It is also a special armed department. When emergencies occur in the surrounding area, the clinic will also provide support.
But the core and most important part of the clinic is the [Secret Medicine Nostrum]
If a doctor wants to open a private clinic outside and obtain the organization's support in terms of manpower and material resources, he must submit a "secret medicine manuscript" and samples.
After the organization has gone through comprehensive testing and review to confirm the value of the secret medicine, it will be approved by the clinic.
Clinics are also required to regularly deliver a fixed amount of secret medicine to the organization.
If the output is high and the value exceeds estimates, the organization will also increase the clinic's budget, increase the number of apprenticeships in the clinic, and provide various support.
usually,
The raw materials of the secret medicine are usually obtained from [the patient],
After being processed and processed by a doctor's unique and private means, a special medicine that does not carry pathogens will be obtained.
This is the most important and core secret of every clinic.
Generally speaking we can divide secret medicines into three categories.
1. Healing type
The effect of healing secret medicine is far better than that of ordinary medicine. It can restore physical energy in a short time and break through the original upper limit.
Some can even provide ultra-fast regeneration for a certain period of time, allowing the individual to remain "immortal."
2. Combat type
This type of secret medicine will specifically activate and strengthen a certain characteristic of a gentleman, and will be greatly strengthened within a certain period of time.
If the secret medicine does not match the individual's characteristics, rejection will occur, and severe cases may lead to death.
3. Potential category
It is a relatively rare and very valuable secret medicine.
[Psyche] that can improve the individual within a certain period of time
It is often used to explore important areas between gray realms or to achieve breakthroughs in personality.
I know the above three categories from family books. After so many years of organizational development, there may be new categories of secret medicines.
All in all, secret medicine plays an irreplaceable and important role in our fight against [disease].
There are also things that need attention,
For different individuals, the secret medicine has a very demanding dosage.
If taken in excessive doses, it may cause huge irreparable damage to the individual, or even direct death... It may also induce hidden diseases in the secret medicine and cause internal infection in the user.
When we pass the stage of being a new gentleman,
Slowly, we will come into contact with more and more secret medicines, which can save our lives in critical moments. "
