The Gentleman at the End

Chapter 78: Chapter 77 Dusk Thin Silver Liquid

The meeting ended,

Doctor Visari along with the evaluating supervisor left one after another,

leaving only Professor Qian Bosen and Supervisor Aiji, who had just returned from outside carrying various reward items.

Each person received a 20cm×20cm piece of “Gentleman’s Skin,” which carried the aura of the old world.

This skin could be used for repairing, altering, or upgrading gentlemen’s clothes, enhancing the clothing’s resistance, self-healing trait, and deepening the ‘bond’ effect.

When an individual broke through human limits, it could also provide a certain auxiliary effect.

In addition,

Supervisor Aiji also held two additional high-value reward items.

One of them was the Pathological Crystal from [Moon Night Rat – Jisming Lee]

Because the body Yi Chen brought back was basically intact, except for a severed left arm and a torn mouth.

The rat, symbolizing the Pathological Core, was also pinched to death, with a high degree of integrity,

yielding an excellently formed Pathological Crystal through Zion’s advanced Burning Technology.

Moon-shaped, @@novelbin@@

it emitted a faint glimmer of the new moon,

with a structure resembling a fetal rat suspended in the crystal’s center,

“This crystal, in terms of shape and quality among crystals of the same grade, is considered [superior]. Even in the market, it could fetch tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, and it might not always be available.

You can distribute it among yourselves.”

The boxed crystal was handed to Captain Edmund,

who, without much thought, immediately passed it on.

“William, this item is meant for you~ Whether it was planning the operation, pinpointing Mr. Lee’s[Weakness], or executing the final blow, all were done by you.

Plus, you just happen to need a weapon. Using this crystal as the main material, you can surely forge a suitable and handy weapon.

Your overall standards will definitely rise a notch by then.

If Professor Qian Bosen doesn’t have the connections in this area, I can introduce you to a Forging Master from the family.”

Yi Chen didn’t immediately accept it, but turned to his three teammates, “It seems that none of you have accepted a crystal to gain ‘Pathological Characteristic’?

Wouldn’t this also be useful for you?”

Edmund quickly waved his hand, “William, don’t put us down… Accepting a crystal and harnessing ‘Pathological Characteristic’ is not something ordinary people can do.

Most gentlemen wait until they have surpassed their limits and have the assurance of physical strength and power to attempt this.

Not everyone can be a freak like you who uses human flesh to forcibly adapt to and control the power of Pathological Trait.”

At this time, Juliana in her wheelchair also turned her head, “William, just take it.”

“Alright…”

Yi Chen initially wanted to say more, but, seeing the glances from his teammates, he finally chose to accept.

Actually, in terms of the final contribution to killing Mr. Lee, Yi Chen believed that Juliana’s contribution was on par with his own, if not greater.

But indeed, he also needed this crystal to forge a weapon now.

The main event was about to happen.

Supervisor Aiji then brought up a briefcase marked G&D onto the table, opening it through special decryption measures.

One bottle of original-packaged ‘Dusk thin silver liquid’ and three small injection vials were inside.

“Due to Doctor Visari’s sudden decision, William will take an entire bottle of secret medicine without refusal or substitution, hence a more detailed understanding of the secret medicine is necessary.

This will be left here for Professor Qian Bosen and William,

I’ll take you three to the next room and explain the basics of the secret medicine.”

“Hmm.”

With the departure of non-essential personnel, especially Supervisor Aiji,

Professor Qian Bosen could finally stop suppressing the joy inside him, his stern and rigid face immediately bearing a smile,

even the owl on his shoulder spread its wings, using its beak to preen its feathers.

“I didn’t expect Doctor Visari to come personally, normally it’s just the staff from the secret medicine review department who are present, and they can’t interfere with the distribution of the doses of the medicine.”

“Could it be related to the brief encounter I had with Doctor Visari before?”

Yi Chen briefly explained the situation when he first arrived in Zion.

“Despite only having a Luck of [3], I still encountered such good fortune… No wonder Doctor Visari suddenly asked about some of your personal conditions and the death trait hidden within you.

Though Doctor Visari is the deputy dean of Hippocrates Hospital, he is not very good at treating and saving patients, but rather specializes in dealing with the hospital’s troubles, especially the most troublesome tasks within the Pathogen Center.

If there is a theft, loss of control, or other issues regarding the secret medicine, he handles them personally.

His power is indeed related to [Death],

you should grasp this relationship with Doctor Visari well.”

“Understood.”

“Alright, let’s talk about your reward… This bottle of secret medicine is actually not something you can use right now.

Even if the properties of the medicine match you, reckless usage would still be very dangerous.

Let me explain in detail the information about this ‘Dusk Thin Silver Liquid’.”

“Mmm.”

“This is a new type of secret medicine, both potential-type and combat-type.

‘Dusk Thin Silver Liquid’, as its name implies, is often used during twilight or moments of near death.

For instance, during a fight with a patient, if you are gravely injured and smell death, falling completely into despair… an arterial injection can instantly restore your physical and mental state to normal, lasting for a period of time.

If the user possesses a death trait, they can also inject small doses regularly to enhance their perception of death,

or like Doctor Visari said, use it to assist when you are about to break through the Limit Barrier.

Of course, the side effects of the silver liquid itself are significant, and if you inject too much or if it causes a rejection reaction in your body, it could lead to unimaginable dire consequences.”

Yi Chen nodded, “This is really great… It’s just a pity that there are problems with the production process. Will the organization continue to produce this type of secret medicine?”

“They will, but the organization will try to find legitimate materials to replace ‘Illness Death Factor’ or collect materials voluntarily… They will never tread the path Dr. Macaul took.

Mental cleanliness is the essence of being a gentleman.

If even this cannot be achieved, the organization would have ceased to exist long ago.”

“Mmm.”

“Of course, due to the decline of the Twilight Clinic.

The production of this secret medicine will inevitably greatly decrease, and its value will increase several-fold. In the future, it will be nearly impossible to get a second bottle, so you must grasp this opportunity well.

My advice is, now that Doctor Visari has expressed his stance,

when you reach the Limit Barrier and plan to use the secret medicine, remember to visit him.”

“Okay, since I can’t use it now, could I ask you to keep it for me for the time being, Professor?”

“Certainly.”

Setting aside the matter of the Dusk Thin Silver Liquid,

Yi Chen then brought out the ‘Gentleman’s Skin’ and ‘Pathological Crystal’ he had acquired from a mission,

Before he could speak, Professor Qian Bosen directly offered a suggestion:

“This skin can be equipped on your clothing by Ivan, he knows more about this than I do.

As the ‘Skin Content’ of the clothing increases, the overall effect will also be greater, and it might even occasionally enhance your [Sensitivity] and help you understand some strange phenomena.”

“As for this crystal, are you planning to make it into a weapon?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t know any skilled forging masters, but your friend’s family, the Mariano family, does have some connections.”

Yi Chen quickly waved his hand to refuse,

“I’d rather not trouble Edmund, his arm hasn’t completely recovered.

Professor, you could introduce me to any forging master, or I could just browse the commercial streets myself. By the way, will my reward money be enough to cover the costs of weapon forging?”

“If you include some additional materials, it might not be enough.

How about this, I’ll personally take you, as I happen to have some unused ‘scrap materials’ in my warehouse that might solve your material problem.”

“Thank you, Professor.”
