The Last Gentleman

  Chapter 437 Keystone Clues

With just a few short conversations, Yi Chen could feel that the original deceased had an almost obsessive pursuit of death, or the reason why he has been here without leaving half a step is that it can provide the best Explore the environment.

   It’s no wonder I heard that kind of conversation in the elevator room before,

  The original deceased did not seem to have much control over the Knights, the original tomb, or even the entire realm of the dead, but let the group of the dead manage themselves.

   "Senior, you..."

  Yi Chen originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask some in-depth questions about the plague, death, and the dead themselves, but was suddenly surrounded by a black mist and whispered in his ears.

   "Okay, this is the end of our conversation, I will continue to explore death, stop your meaningless questioning. Come see me after you fulfill the agreement between the contract."

  Surrounded by black mist, Yi Chen was sent away from the secret room and mausoleum in a blink of an eye, and returned to the top of the ramp.

  The door of the elevator is also opened simultaneously,

  'Vivi', whose black hair completely covered her frontal body, was standing at the door, pinching Yi Chen's throat, pulling him out from the black mist, and throwing it heavily to the ground, even the sound of the spine being broken could be heard.

   This is not a big problem for Yi Chen, who is wearing dead makeup, and even a little dark, and then he responded with a twisted posture of a broken spine: "Thank you."

  These words made Weiwei slightly stunned. She turned her head between her black hair and stared at the young man who fell on the ground. At the same time, she also noticed that the black mist enveloping the young man actually formed a skull pendant on his chest.

  An extremely cold voice came from under the black hair again, "At first, the deceased seemed to be very optimistic about you, and he granted you the status of 'high-ranking dead people' after just meeting. It seems that we will become colleagues in the future."

   "The superior dead people?"

  Yi Chen finally came to his senses, looked down at the skull pendant on his chest, and there was continuous black mist spraying out from the skull's eye sockets and mouth.

   "By the way, what can this identity be used for?"

   "Go ask Berner, I don't have time to answer you."

  The lift came to the fourth floor of the original tomb, which was also the highest-level residential area for dead people. Only the Plague Knights, excellent trainee knights, or high-level dead people were eligible to live here.

However,

  Yi Chen walked out of the elevator but did not see any buildings, only a group of neatly arranged tombstones.

  However, each tombstone is far apart, and the tombstones are made of different materials. You can even see pure gold tombstones made of old world gold.

  The surname of the deceased is engraved on the tombstone, which seems to represent the corresponding residence.

   Just as Yi Chen stood at the entrance of the elevator and looked around the dead people's area, a warg came running towards him from a distance, and the latter also jumped up with a leap of understanding, and stepped directly on the back of the warg.

   Soon, led by the warg, they came to a tombstone with hair growing and a wolf's head carved on the top. The name engraved on it was exactly [Berner].

  The warg stretched out the flesh pad and lightly touched the surface of the tombstone, corresponding to the opening of a downward staircase.

   Yes,

  The living room of the dead is built underground, so that it can be closer to the bottom layer, and absorb as much as possible the ancient deadly plague emitted by the original dead.

  Thirteen sat upright on the stone bench in the living room. When she saw the teacher coming, the candle above her head quickly doubled in size. Even if there was no change in her expression, her excitement could be seen.

   Bernard, who took off his wolf helmet, also came out from the next room. Under the mask was a resolute and handsome human face.

   There is only a cut mark on the face across the right eyebrow, nose bridge and cheek, the cut mark exposes the bones, which is extremely frightening.

  Berna also noticed the pendant on Yi Chen's chest for the first time, "Huh? High-ranking dead... Is the boss going to let you participate in the knight assessment?"

   "No, because I have other things to do in the old world, and I won't stay in the original tomb for long, so naturally I won't think about the issue of the Knights."

   "What?! You won't stay for long, but the boss still gives you the status of a high-ranking dead citizen... It seems that it should be related to the strange death on your body.

   Really don't plan to stay? With your strength, you can easily pass the knight assessment. When you complete the pathway, you can become a formal knight and enjoy the highest treatment in the original tomb. "

   "I still have contract matters that I have to deal with, so I can't stay for a long time now, I'm really sorry."

   Berner sighed, "Forget it, since the boss didn't keep you, it's useless for me to say anything... When will you leave?"

  Yi Chen turned to tear off the "Dead Spine Lake" pretending to be a tail, and held it in his hand, "I want to buy a "Dead Man's Keystone", and then find the blacksmith in the original tomb to modify and upgrade this spine. "

  As soon as he said this, Berner's expression immediately became serious, and his eyes even turned red, "Where did you get the information about the 'keystone of the dead'? "

   "Duke."

   "I see, it seems that the Duke just told you about this thing, and didn't introduce the origin of this thing in detail.

  This is a treasure that even members of our Knights cherish very much. Even in the original tomb, it is priceless, and it is impossible to buy it. After all, I don’t even have it in my hands. "

   "How to get it?"

   "Killing [Abyss Death Statue] has a chance to drop.

  However, this is not an existence that you can touch. Even our knights need to form a team to attack, after all, it is a dangerous dead creature that was born in the gap of death when the boss was exploring death. "

  After hearing these words, Yi Chen widened his eyes and asked quickly,

   "Will you conduct a crusade in the near future? Can you bring me one? During the crusade, you don't have to spend any thoughts on me, even if I die, it has nothing to do with you.

   If I fail to contribute during the crusade, there is no need to give me any spoils. "

  Actually, when Berner learned that Yi Chen did not want to stay in the original tomb, he lost a lot of interest, and naturally he was unwilling to accept such a proposal.

But along the way, this kid left him a very good impression, and at first the deceased directly gave him the status of a high-ranking dead man. Although he will not join the Knights, he still maintains contact with the original tomb, which is really difficult. reject.

   "It's very troublesome~ Well, if you can let Weiwei join us, I will apply for the crusade against the "Dead Image". "

   "Weiwei... By the way, what is the relationship between her and you?"

   "I used to be a teammate, but unfortunately I got separated because of some things."

  When Berner talked about this matter, he couldn't help but glance at the great sword on the tombstone leaning in the corner.

   "If I can convince Ms. Weiwei, can I take me to fight against the dead statue? Okay...give me a little time, Thirteen, let's go!"

   "Yes teacher."

   Berner didn't say much either, allowing Yi Chen to leave, in his opinion, this request was impossible to fulfill, after all he himself had worked hard for many years, but the barrier always existed.

  Thirteen asked with some concern: "Teacher, shall we go to the lady in charge of the elevator now? That person looks so scary, he can't speak well at all."

"No, first use the identity given to me by the deceased to find a place to live, temporarily cut off contact with Berna, investigate this Ms. Weiwei from all aspects, and then I will find an excellent opportunity to have a one-on-one conversation. "

Yi Chen chose to take an ordinary elevator to the residential area of ​​the dead (ordinary) on the second floor of the original tomb, and used the pendant identity and paid ancient coins to stay in an underground hotel called [Black Funeral House], ready to implement his personal project.
