Chapter 251 Candidates
When the only train connecting the inside and outside of the college arrived at the campus platform, Chamberson with a solemn face was just about to get off the train when a faint fluctuation in the stars was detected by the owl on his shoulder.
I don't know when a lady was sitting at the end of the carriage, with her long, fleshy legs raised high.
A black skirt-like robe with dark gold trim and a "crying mask" with starlight teardrops hanging on it.
"Professor Chamberson, don't worry, William will be fine."
"Principal Deslin!" Chamberson immediately bowed and lowered his eyes to the ground, "William is my only student after all. I am still a little worried. After all, the first gentleman's condition has plummeted recently."
"I got a lot of interesting things during my recent star observation.
It also includes William's vague lines, covered by various strange stars, and the wonderful future formed by the divergence. His future will extend far away and will not end here.
You don’t need to worry about his subsequent contact with the First Gentleman. After all, he is also a student in my college, and I, the principal, will naturally take care of him before graduation."
"good."
"When William comes back, ask him to come to my office tonight."
"yes."
When Chamberson looked up again, Principal Desline had disappeared.
The brief meeting made his worries disappear. As one of Zion's [Prophets], Principal Deslin is also the most important prophet. Taking the initiative to show up and give such words naturally means that Yi Chen will be fine.

Deep inside the official residence
The body of nearly six meters long was pierced by iron chains and bound in the air. The first gentleman hung in the shape of a cross above the altar. Alexis felt the familiar visitor's breath and slowly opened his eyes.
Yi Chen, who came here alone, couldn't help but look solemn when he looked at the first gentleman. Compared with the previous meeting, the first gentleman was more than ten years older again, and even gave a feeling that his end was approaching.
A head full of white hair with some falling out,
The eyelids build up to support the eyeball, which may slip out,
The clothes on his body were also more tattered, and like his skin, there were wrinkles and even white spots and tumors.
"William Behrens, it's a pleasure to meet you again...ahem!
I hope you don’t mind my decision to let Professor Chamberson stay outside the room, because in addition to the reward for the skin today, there is another important matter involving organizational development and human continuation that needs to be discussed with you alone.”
"yes."
Although Yi Chen's expression did not change after hearing these words, a drop of cold sweat slipped from his scalp.
"As usual, accept my skin first."
The iron chains connected to the four corners of the underground church were slowly lowered, and the first gentleman gradually touched the ground. As Yi Chen stepped onto the altar, the two of them reached out to touch it at the same time.
The skin on the first gentleman's body began to be transported to Yi Chen's palm, and at the same time, the "gentleman's skin" he was currently driving was tested.
The latter was a little nervous, and every second felt very slow.
When the two separated, a 20×20cm large "gentleman's leather" was neatly folded in Yi Chen's hand. The first gentleman did not notice the existence of the yellow leather, and even showed an appreciative look.
"William, you have a high degree of control over leather! A gentleman like you who can perfectly control 20% leather content without breaking through the limit is very rare in the history of the organization.
I am here to extend an invitation to you, hoping that you can become one of the candidates for [First Gentleman]."
Yi Chen noticed the key word 'one', and just when he was about to think about it before giving an answer, a voice came from his consciousness.
§Promise to it§
"It's a great honor to be your candidate and I will work harder."
Seeing Yi Chen decisively agreed, the first gentleman showed a rare smile on his miserable face.
"After you complete your ultimate breakthrough, using this skin will allow your "skin content" to reach exactly 50%. With your talent, you will definitely be able to see more possibilities of the skin and develop your own way of using it.
Time is running out, the selection of final candidates may be held within two years, or even shorter, I hope you can be prepared."
"I will definitely live up to your expectations! I will make all preparations and use all my strength to compete with other candidates for this honorary qualification in a friendly manner."
"Ahem! This screening will be completely different from the past. We need to select a human leader who is better than me in controlling skin, or even the first gentleman in the past.
The remaining candidates are also the elites of contemporary mankind, and the selection rules may be cruel and even exceed your understanding of a gentleman's character.
But all this is based on the continuation of human civilization, I hope you can accept it.
Ahem~ After you complete the breakthrough, if you have any demand for skin content, you can apply to the Shenpi Official Residence. As long as we are sure that you can accept more skins and maintain stability, we will supply them in unlimited quantities."
"Thanks."
"Go and do your thing, time is running out."
The conversation is over.
Yi Chen made a gesture of taking off his hat and bowing and left quickly.
He was a little nervous when he first stepped into the official residence, but he was a little sad when he left, as if he could taste the special emotion of the first gentleman from the conversation just now.
The other party was once a genius with high hopes and unique talent and strength. He was only burdened with such a special identity in order to maintain the stable output of Pi, maintain the pivotal relationship between the organization and the Pi field, and maintain the stability of Zion.

Yi Chen knocked on Professor Chamberson's office door and then put the feather for help on the desk.
"Sure enough... I just listed you as one of the candidates. It seems that I am too sensitive.
William, what do you think? Now you should know exactly what will happen if you take the path of a candidate."
"I have promised the first gentleman and decided to go down and give it a try."
Yi Chen chose to completely conceal Huang Pi's affairs, including his close relative Professor Chamberson, not because he didn't trust him, but because even someone as powerful as Chamberson still wore clothes made of "Gentleman's Skin"
.
Only Yi Chen knew about Huangpi's existence.
"Well~ As long as it's your own wish."
Chamberson put a stack of documents on the desktop into a drawer. He had even prepared all the documents needed for Yi Chen to run away just now.
As long as Yi Chen doesn't want to become the first gentleman, he can borrow these documents to quickly leave Zion and go to human areas not under the jurisdiction of the organization.
"Professor, don't worry. I had in-depth contact with Duke Gallison in the old world, and was branded with the "seal of the transaction." Even if I really became the first gentleman and was restrained below.
When the Gray Realm completely erodes our world and the power of the old world expands, I can pay some price to let the Duke fish me out.
The Duke is easy to talk to, and as long as the money is in place, anything can be done."
"Well, you just have to use your own discretion.
By the way, Principal Deslin asked me to send a message for her. She needs you to go to the top floor of the Fetal Heart Church tonight, which is the principal's office. She has something to talk to you alone."
Yi Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he happened to be thinking about this on his way back.
"Did the principal take the initiative to find me? That's great. It's just the right time for her to mention the improvement of the [sensing] level... As long as the sensing reaches the limit, we can officially consider the issue of breakthrough."
