expensive.

   And it's not that expensive.

  Yi Chen's salary in the cemetery for several months plus a special bonus is more than 100 silver coins, and the cheapest kerosene lamp here costs 500 silver coins.

   But it has to be said.

  The kerosene lamps sold here are quite good,

   Compresses the size to the minimum under the premise of ensuring the lighting characteristics, and how to shake it will not affect the internal combustion.

  The lamp tube and base are made of anti-strike 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, carrying a special kerosene lamp in his hand.

   "William, what do you think of this! It feels like a good fit for you."

   Edmund chose a black kerosene lamp with a specimen of a crow standing at the top of the lamp holder.

  The corpse of the crow has been specially treated, and the body is filled with a special hard and flexible material, which will never be corrupted.

  It is worth noting that,

   The crow's eyeballs have been replaced with two unique rubies, giving the dead crow an eerie vividness.

in addition,

   The opening for changing the fuel is specially designed in the style of a 'black framed wooden door', making the kerosene lamp like a private hut, the bonfire burning inside through the window, illuminating the outside world.

  The waiter in the store is like meeting a big customer and warmly introduces:

   "The kerosene lamp in your hand is called [The-Crow-Night], and this kerosene lamp is inspired by Mr. Edgar Allan Poe's "The Crow".

   Made by our senior lamp master-Gnom himself.

  Flexible glass and imprinted with 'Resilience Runes',

  The lamp holder, handle and various metal decorations are taken from the cold iron of the cemetery for more than ten years.

  Our store will also permanently provide free replacement of long-lasting fuel,

   sells for 4,800 credits. "

   Edmund frowned slightly, "It's a little expensive~ William, how do you feel?"

   "It's too expensive, let's go to another place to see it."

"Fine."

   Yi Chen left decisively, such a sum of money was not something he could afford at all, and the team members also left after seeing this.

   It's just that Edmund's speed was a little slower. When he came out, there was an extra bag in his hand that was exquisitely packaged and had the Torch logo.

   One step fell beside Yi Chen, and he hung the handbag on his wrist.

   In the tote bag, it was suddenly a kerosene lamp decorated with crows.

"Um!?"

   "William, since you came out of the cemetery, you have been resting between the colleges all the time, and you should have no money on your body... For me, this is just two months of living expenses.

  Once we successfully complete the difficult task of 3 stars or above, we will naturally be rewarded with generous silver coins.

  Because I purchased it subjectively, I am not sure if 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, he also took into account the upcoming gentleman mission with high difficulty, and Yi Chen finally accepted it.

"thanks."

  Yi Chen took out the kerosene lamp from the handbag,

  The lightness and comfort in the hand is beyond imagination, just like holding on the surface of the soft bird body, soft and comfortable.

   At the same time, this dark style kerosene lamp is also in line with Yi Chen's overall temperament.

   Edmund had already opened a certain distance and looked at Yi Chen's whole body.

   "My vision is right, this kerosene lamp is just tailor-made for you.

  Speaking of which, William, do you want to deal with this [long black hair]? Although it also fits the temperament of your graveyard, this kind of long hair may hold you back in battle. "

   "Long hair?"

  Yi Chen touched the shoulder-length hair that he had grown rapidly during the recovery period. He did not reject it, and even liked it a little.

  The stage of life before death is almost always short hair,

   But now, he really wants to try this long hairstyle. Perhaps it is related to the change of the body, and I also want to change myself.

   And these long hairs are also equivalent to 'recording' this special half year, which has a certain commemorative significance.

   "It feels good like this, no need for trimming."

   "Let's do this~ Let Anna help you tie it up, it's suitable for fighting and can keep this long hair, try it out."

   Under the instigation of Edmund, Yi Chen agreed.

   With Yuliana's skilled operation.

   retains bangs and temples, with a centered ball head tied at the back, and the whole person is immediately refreshed.

   "Hmm~ that's really good! This hairstyle suits you... By the way, do you want to change your weapon?"

   Edmund's posture seems to be preparing to give Yi Chen a 'big renovation'.

   "No, this axe is very easy to use."

   "Well, the workmanship is really good, but it only belongs to the category of basic equipment.

  If we can get diseased crystals or some more precious materials on this mission, you can use them to craft more handy weapons when we return to the city.

  The weapons used to hunt the sick are as important as our limbs. "

"Um."

  …

have to say,

   The corresponding family behind Edmund is quite wealthy, and even built a mansion in Zion.

   Afterwards, he took everyone to a big meal for a day and enjoyed a full-body massage before the war.

   After a day of recuperating, the body and spirit were adjusted to the highest level, and the next morning went to the [Gentleman's Hall] to submit the mission statement.

   A high-end carriage directly under the organization is also waiting for everyone at the entrance of the hall

   Compared with the carriage that Yi Chen rode before, it is several grades higher... The horses that have been improved by species are selected, their physical strength is several times higher than that of ordinary horses, and they have the characteristics of disease resistance and self-healing.

   You can even see feather-like musculature on the sides of the horse.

  The carriage with partition windows and closed curtains is strong and stable, and is also equipped with an emergency power generation device.

  Once there is a problem with the horse, the electric drive can still maintain a high speed, which is enough to get rid of some chasing dangers.

   After emphasizing some basic issues, the coachman officially set off for the destination - [Venal City].

   Although the distance of 51km is written on the paper,

  Due to the influence of various mountain topography, the journey time is expected to take three and a half hours.

   Just as everyone was chatting about the task, Yi Chen suddenly threw a question in his heart.

   "What is [Secret Medicine]? It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the course."

   for a while,

   There was silence in the carriage.

   This question is still ultimately answered by Edmund:

   "It seems that William, you basically spent your time on yourself for the past six months, so you didn't understand the information related to the organization... Let me explain briefly.

   mentions the elixir,

   must mention two other important concepts, [doctor] and [clinic].

   When we first came to Zion, we met a doctor on the bridge, you should know it? "

"Um…"

  Yi Chen heard Edmund say at the time that doctors belong to a special group of gentlemen with special and powerful abilities.

   Edmund continued:

   "[Clinic] is somewhat similar to [Tailor Shop], both are important institutions (Institutions) established outside through the recognition and financial support of the organization.

  The clinic can provide medical services such as treatment, disease removal and other medical services for the gentlemen who are on the mission nearby or on the way. It is also a special armed department. When there is an emergency 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 support of the organization in terms of human and material resources, he must submit a "secret medicine manuscript" and a sample.

   After the organization has been tested and reviewed by the ring, and the value of the secret medicine is confirmed, it will be approved by the clinic.

   At the same time, the clinic is required to deliver a fixed amount of the secret medicine to the organization on a regular basis.

  If the output is higher and the value exceeds the estimate, the organization will also increase the budget of the clinic, increase the number of apprentices in the clinic, and support in various aspects.

usually,

   The raw materials of the secret medicine are usually taken from the [sick person],

   After being processed and processed by the 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 the herbs into three categories.

  1. Healing

   The effect of healing secret medicines is far better than ordinary medicines, and can achieve physical recovery in a short period of time, breaking the original upper limit.

   Some even provide super-fast regeneration for a certain period of time, allowing the individual to remain "undead."

  2. Combat

   This kind of secret medicine will activate and strengthen a certain trait of a gentleman in a targeted manner, and it will be greatly strengthened within a certain period of time.

  If the secret medicine does not match the individual's characteristic attributes, there will be a rejection reaction, which may lead to death in severe cases.

  3. Potential

   is a rare and very valuable secret medicine.

   Can increase the individual's [Induction Psyche] for a certain period of time

   is often used to explore important areas between gray domains, or to make personal breakthroughs.

  The above three categories are what I know from family books. After so many years of development of the organization, there may be new categories of secret medicines.

   All in all, the secret medicine plays an irreplaceable and important role in our process of fighting against [disease].

   There are also points to pay attention to,

  For different individuals, the secret medicine has a very strict dosage.

  If overdose is taken, it may cause irreparable huge damage to the individual, or even die directly... It may also induce hidden symptoms among the secret medicines and cause internal infection to the user.

   Waiting for us to pass the stage of new gentleman,

   Slowly, we will come into contact with more and more secret medicines, which can save our lives in critical moments. "
