The Last Gentleman

Chapter 680: Tide and Teeth

  Chapter 680 The tide and teeth

  Even if the horse-drawn carriage transformed by the condemned prisoners is fast enough, it will take a day and a night to go to the coastal area.

  The headmaster has taken off her high heels and is lying on her side on the bed. As long as there is no third party, she doesn't have to restrain herself. It was only when she was alone or with William that she fully relaxed.

   "William, you are actually very aware of the risks of this journey, right?"

  William sat on the edge of the bed opposite, staring at the principal's four-pointed star-shaped pupils, "Of course, otherwise, how could I be shameless and let the principal join you... If it was just a general matter, I would definitely not bother you. After all, without your presence, Zion's risk index will rise sharply."

   "Huh~ Pretentious."

  William kept his sitting position and slowly bent down, with his hands resting on his chin, "Have the organization never had any experience at sea before?"

   "Of course not, Zion's total combat power is not enough to support the matter of 'going to sea'. There are only a few strong people who can get there, and going to sea itself also has a lot of risks.

  The organization also had the idea of ​​going to sea, called [Great Migration].

   What was considered at the time was that if the continent of Quechua (Quechua) where we are located is confirmed to be completely grayed out, and the leather factory is going to enslave us all, the organization will conduct a full-scale migration.

  Go across the sea to Middle-Earth to try to find other human organizations.

   But this idea was overturned before it was even written into the plan, as we learned about the old world, and found no "free humans" other than us.

  Human beings on other continents may not be as lucky as we are. They have not been directly protected by the source of epidemic areas like leather factories, and even given "gentleman's skin" that does not affect human nature so that we can contact diseases and develop freely as human beings.

  Humans on other continents either died or were raised by sick people for species transformation. "

  William gently scratched the bridge of his nose with his fingers, "It's strange, according to the geography knowledge I read in books, the scale of Middle-Earth is much larger than the Kachua continent where we are.

  The human density, culture and technological level there should be higher than ours.

   Reasonably speaking, it should attract many epidemic-origin areas to colonize there in advance and establish bases for the new world. Even if they are not as laissez-faire as the leather factory, maybe they will be given some room for development, right?

   Now, apart from our organization, the Old World doesn’t have a single decent human being, which is very strange…”

  Unexpectedly, Principal Daislin stretched out her long white legs directly, with the soles of her feet facing William's face, signaling him not to continue talking.

   "There is no need to think about this kind of thing anymore, let's take care of the situation in front of us~ If we go to the sea and arrive in the Central Region, we will be able to know the specific situation by then.

   By the way, William’s aura seems to have changed a lot. Tell me about your experience in the old world during the time you left, and listen to the stories to pass the time~ No one talks in the academy, and it’s a bit boring to only talk about the stars with a bunch of old guys across the galaxy. "

   "Also."

  …

   One night passed.

  Desline changed from lying sideways to sitting cross-legged.

  Two hands were still crossed and lightly grasped the soles of the feet, and the two star pupils were wide open.

  The stories of the different world told by William are novel, exciting and extremely vivid. With the continuous transmission of memory pictures by the epileptic brain, a completely different human world is depicted.

   It caused the principal to stay up most of the night and was very excited. She had many questions at every point of the story, and it was finally over at three o'clock in the morning.

   "Principal, good night~ have a good rest, we have to cross the sea tomorrow."

   When William lay down to rest,

  Desline was wrapped in her quilt but couldn't fall asleep for a long time. The story just now was completely reproduced through the stars and clouds in her mind. For some reason, she actually felt a rare envy that the circus member named Catherine could go with William on such a novel and interesting adventure in another world.

  She also wants to go, wants to see the stars in the world over there.

   "William..."

   After tossing and turning, Daislin wanted to continue chatting, but there was no response from the opposite bed, and she seemed to be asleep.

   Just when she was a little bit lost, a voice came: "Principal, if we have a chance in the future, we can go there together. I think the stars in the world over there may give you new insights."

   "Well, go to sleep."

   The restless heart is at peace, and drowsiness strikes.

  I don't know how long it has passed, the frequency and degree of bumping of the carriage have increased significantly, and at the same time, a strong sense of damp has penetrated into the carriage.

   "Boss, boss! The infection on your side is so serious!

   It’s incredible. The old world has a very clear territorial division of different source epidemic areas, and “cross-infection” is strictly prohibited. However, you are not bound by the conventional rules, and you have such a joint disease. It’s really interesting. "

  While William woke up, Nash's excited voice spread in the cranial cavity,

  When you open your eyes,

  The originally neat and clean carriage was covered with light water stains,

  The compartments with metal partitions are actually seeping water, various shellfish, plants, and even tiny eyeballs grow out, and there are even finger-sized crabs crawling on the walls.

  The most exaggerated thing is that the quilt covering William's body also grew barnacle structures.

   However, these are nothing, what really invades the car is something else... makes William feel uncomfortable, and makes Nash feel excited.

   Teeth that occupy about 40% of the wall surface of the compartment.

  That's right, the white human teeth are densely embedded in the interior of the car, causing people physical discomfort.

   "Yeah! So wet!"

  When William suddenly sat up, he found that the headmaster had already gotten up and changed his clothes.

  Using the plasticity of "gentleman's skin" to transform yesterday's long skirt and high heels into a set of corset vest, long leather pants and a pair of star-decorated plain leather boots suitable for going out.

  "A gentleman in the organization once tried to investigate the coastal area, but he turned back before arriving. It was because of the extreme humidity and the weird [teeth] that he was persuaded to leave.

  Although the sea was the earliest and most deeply infected area, the plague master who controlled the sea in the old world didn't spend much time here, nor did he prohibit the invasion of other diseases.

  Slowly, various diseases began to appear in the sea, and a large number of cross-infections occurred.

   Among them, dental disease seems to have a nice mix with marine pathogens. "

   "Cross infection?"

  William tried to pinch a tooth on the surface of the carriage. He thought it would be easy to remove, but he didn't expect the inlay of the tooth to be extremely tight. With the force of his two fingers, he pulled it out.

Snapped!

  The moment the tooth was pulled out, seawater juice splashed down together.

  The tooth nerves that were constantly twisting like the tentacles of an octopus were pulled out, and William even felt that the vitality was not weaker than that of small animals.

"Um?"

  William tried to throw the extracted tooth to the ground,

  Unexpectedly, the dental nerve actually carried the tooth to the ground, and began to crawl on the ground.

  After finding a suitable position, the nerve immediately becomes like a drill bit and begins to drill holes in the ground.

  For some reason, William felt a toothache watching this scene.

   "What force in the old world does this... this tooth correspond to?"

  Desline was puzzled,

   "William, you don't know this?

  The teeth obviously correspond to an epidemic source area in the old world. Although they became low-key after the war, they don't know each other, right?

  This epidemic source area can be said to be a 'hospital' in the old world, named [Dental Hall]. "

  "I really don't know...the hospital in the old world? Why does it feel a bit inconsistent? After all, the old world itself is the origin of the epidemic, but there are still such things as hospitals.

  Is this dental clinic simply providing oral treatment, or what? "

   "I haven't been there. After all, the scale of the [Dental Museum] is not large compared to other epidemic areas, and it has always been low-key, even hidden in the corner of the world.

  It is rumored that only those who are seriously injured and are about to die, if they choose to wander in the no man's land of the old world in the last stage of their lives, they may see the [Dental Hall].

   What kind of specific, I do not know.

   I just didn’t expect that the [Dental Hall], which was quite low-key in the old world, would be so active on our side, infecting and occupying the coastal areas wantonly,

   It seems that this group of doctors from the old world is very far-sighted. They want to take root here in advance, and immediately transfer the [Dental Hall] over when the world infection is completed. "

  William also opened the window with interest,

  Although the outside is filled with thick gray matter, but borrowing the vision of the abyss, you can probably feel that a special city is not far away, and you can clearly hear the sound of the tide.
