Close the curtains, dim the kerosene lamp and place it beside the bed.

Yi Chen pretended to read a book and began to communicate with his clothes.

"How to call it?"

"I have no name or title. In order to distinguish me from those with inferior skin, I dyed myself yellow. You can call me "Yellow Skin"."

"Huang Pi, what kind of product are you? Why can you easily blend into gentleman's clothing and perfectly avoid Zion's detection."

Hearing Yi Chen's question, the clothes twitched slightly, as if Huang Pi was laughing.

"Same as the "gentleman's skin" you use to make clothes, I am just a skin produced daily by the leather farm. It's just that for some reason, I have changed, and I am different from other inferior skins.

I am above them and can naturally control them and assimilate them.

Not to mention the testing in this small city of yours, even the quality testing at the leather farm cannot detect my existence from normal leather.』

Yi Chen then asked:

"Why did you come to us? Since the leather field can't detect your presence, you should be able to absorb more nutrients and grow faster there, right?"

When I went to the old world before, I accidentally heard from [Duke] that there seemed to be a large-scale riot in the leather farm, and the root cause of the riot was related to yellow leather. Was it you?"

"I didn't expect that you would be able to establish contact with Duke Gallison the first time you went to the old world. I really didn't pick the wrong person.

You are right, the leather farm is a big tank of super nutrients for me, and I was forced to leave.

I was born about five hundred years ago. Over the years, I have been pretending to be inferior skins and wandering around in the leather farms, strengthening myself through absorption and assimilation, and trying to dominate the entire factory.

But in the end, I still underestimated the power of the origin disease and was almost annihilated. Fortunately, I separated a small piece of the skin field in advance and came to you with the help of the [channel].

If you are lucky, you will encounter a bunch of eyeball carriers as soon as you come down the mountain and use their vision to spy on you and your teammates.

At first, I was just planning to take over your body, but I didn't expect that you, a mere human being, could actually get rid of the trap I set.

After thinking about it carefully, I realized that skin like mine will always be an "attachment" no matter how much it grows. If it is not attached to an individual, it will never be able to fight against the disease that originated from the skin field.

I didn’t expect that after searching for it, you were the best choice when I first met you.』

Huang Pi's words made Yi Chen a little stunned. He didn't expect that the leather field, which was an important area in the old world, would actually cause a big fuss by this guy.

"If I agree to cooperate with you, what is the specific period? What kind of assistance can you provide me?"

"It has been as long as the time since my birth [five hundred years], as long as I can complete the control of Pi Chang within this period."

While I am the "attachment", I will provide you with assistance beyond the inferior skin.

In addition to the previous physical suturing,

If your skin content can still grow a little, I can also provide combat enhancements and even skin modifications, so that you can feel the real power of the skin field.

[Youshu Leather Field] is ranked high as an epidemic source area in the old world.』

The time limit given by Huangpi is very wide, far beyond Yi Chen's expectation. Moreover, Huangpi is superior to ordinary skin, as it will not be detected and can provide more auxiliary support.

Naturally, Yi Chen would not refuse such a good thing, but there were still some things that he had to ask clearly in advance.

"If I meet the First Gentleman and accept his skin, there won't be any problems, right?"

"I'm just a "transmitter", how could I possibly discover my existence? Even if you live peacefully in this city, as long as you don't take the initiative to expose me, it's impossible to detect my existence."

"All right."

As Yi Chen nodded his head,

Hiss~ The yellow silk threads split out from the cuffs of the clothing and quickly woven out a piece of yellow paper.

On the other cuff, a darker yellow line grows separately, and a full text of ancient living characters is written in one stroke.

Just like this, a yellow leather contract fell into Yi Chen's hands, and the content written on it was completely consistent with the discussion just now.

"This contract requires you to smear blood on the surface of every word with your subjective consent. Once it takes effect, this cortical contract will be imprinted on your soul."

No matter you or I, as long as there is any betrayal of the other party during the cooperation, even the thoughts will be captured, and once confirmed, they will be erased by the powerful at the soul level.』

It was the first time for Yi Chen to see this kind of ancient contract and he patted his shoulder gently.

A ball of black hair quickly appeared, looked at the yellow paper carefully and then gave a reply:

"No problem. From my vague memory, this kind of "contract" written in the living script of the old world seems to be very common in the old world. There are many relationships that need to be maintained through this method of signing contracts."

"Um."

Yi Chen directly cut his wrist to bleed. When the blood covered every word on the yellow paper, buzz! The paper trembled.

The yellow paper was disassembled back into a line structure and became both virtual and solid, making it impossible to touch.

blink,

All the lines penetrated into Yi Chen's navel and disappeared.

However, Yi Chen could vaguely feel a sense of sliding lines coming from deep inside his body, and the source of the feeling was his own soul.

"The contract has been signed, I will not disturb your daily life~ I will not come out unless necessary. Come on, young human."

Huangpi sank into the depths like a dive, and Yi Chen even completely lost his perception of Huangpi, and needed to rely on a contract to feel the other party's existence.

Only one day has passed.

The reward for Levenholm's death has been approved.

As the first mentor, Professor Chamberson is responsible for the distribution. The reason is very simple. Yi Chen is once again allowed to accept [skin] from the first gentleman, and Chamberson will serve as the guide as usual.

Along the way, Chamberson also asked about Yi Chen's experience, and he immediately understood why Yi Chen was called to the Shenpi Mansion again. Chamberson was even a little worried.

When the two crossed the long bridge and arrived at Shenpi's official residence again.

Several clergymen wrapped in god-skin costumes (stitched style) suddenly blocked the way of the two of them.

Their sewn lips opened and closed with the same amplitude and frequency, and they said in unison: "The First Gentleman wants to meet William Behrens alone. Please wait outside the official residence for your escort."

This situation made Chamberson frown, but he could not disobey the first gentleman's order, so he had to quietly stuff a feather into Yi Chen's collar by tapping his shoulder.

The breeze generated by turning away sent a message to Yi Chen's ears:

"If something threatens your life, crush the feathers immediately."

Yi Chen nodded silently and followed the clergyman to the depths of the Shenpi Mansion like an honest man.

Chamberson did not stay and wait, but returned to the academy as quickly as possible, preparing to meet up with Hogni Zed... Once something really happened to Yi Chen, only Zed would be willing and able to help

Can help.

"Yi Chen has not yet broken through the limit, and his skin content is only 20%. He was asked to meet alone so soon. Has the situation of the first gentleman gotten so bad? Or does he have other intentions?

In this case, you have to prepare for the worst, and I hope you won’t have to use it.”
