Chapter 166: Examination
The wind blowing from the ground carried a terrible coolness, and Crane felt a little detached from his tense spirit.
It's finally here......
As long as I pass this level, I won't need to worry about anything like that for at least half a year......
Once I am promoted to Sequence 8 and become the so-called "clown", I will be able to have real combat ability, plus the assistance of divination, and the guarantee of the "Yang Flame Charm", even if I encounter greater danger, I have a lot of hope to carry it......
In order to wait for the examination of the Templar, I did not even withdraw the 300 pounds that Miss "Justice" had deposited into an anonymous account, lest I be "audited" for financial problems and convicted of a huge amount of wealth of unknown origin......
......
Just as Klein's thoughts flashed uncontrollably, Dunn Smith straightened the collar of his shirt and said in a deep voice:
"In charge of this examination is Crestai Sesima, one of the nine High Deacons of the Nightwatch, and the Templar takes you very seriously. ”
"Senior Deacon?" Klein blurted out in amazement.
The thirteen archbishops and nine senior deacons are the top of the church in the usual sense, and it is said that there are many high-ranking powerhouses among them!
These twenty-two gentlemen and ladies are completely equal in status, following only the oracle of the goddess of the night and accountable only to the Pope.
Dunn took a breath of the cool breeze from the ground and said softly:
"Yes, a senior deacon, but you don't need to be nervous, Crestai only has Sequence 5 and has not yet stepped into the level of 'demigod and half-human', so there is no need to be too scared and afraid. ”
"Well, his title in the entire transcendent world is 'Goddess Sword', because he has been recognized by a holy relic, his combat power will not be worse than the sequence 4 that he just promoted. ”
"I've talked to him just now and he's very kind. ”
The subtext of the captain is that he only said what should be said and did not say what should not be said, so that I don't have to be nervous and follow the predetermined plan...... Crane nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Where do I go to see this senior deacon?"
"An alchemy room where potions are blended. Dunn replied simply and directly, a flash of gloom on his face.
The alchemy room where the potions were dispensed?was the same laboratory where Old Neil was concocting the "soothsayer" potions?Crane exhaled slowly, returned to the Nightwatcher's recreation room, and removed his coat from the coat rack.
He put on the thin black trench coat, put his hands in his pockets, and descended the staircase that snaked into the ground, turning left at the crossroads.
Soon, Crane saw a secret door illuminated by an elegant gaslamp, and saw that the long tables inside had been moved away to vacate the central section.
There are two classical high-backed chairs, which stand opposite each other, less than a metre apart.
The one facing the door was sitting a man in his thirties wearing a black trench coat and a white shirt.
His blond-brown hair was shaved short, his dark green eyes looked like a moonless lake in the middle of the night, and the neckline of his shirt and trench coat stood high up, hiding his entire chin in shadow.
"Hello, Sir Sesima. Klein bowed.
Crestai Cesima rested his right leg on top of his left leg, leaned back in his chair and said with a smile:
"Hello, Crane, you can sit there. ”
He gestured to the high-backed chair opposite.
At his feet, there was a suitcase made of silver and white metal, similar in size and width to the case of a violin.
This would hold a sword that is not too long...... Klein took a few steps forward and sat down in his place.
Crestai flexed his right index finger, pressed it against his nostrils, and muttered for a few seconds:
"I'm going to test your mastery of potions first, no problem, right?"
"Nope. Crane shook his head confidently.
"Very confident. Crestai chuckled, then kept his posture and stared at the other side quietly.
Crane suddenly felt the glow of the gas lights around him disappear, swallowed up by the thick darkness.
All of a sudden, he became very tired, as if he had come to sleep time marked by the biological clock.
However, his spirit was so tense that he could not relax, just like he had in the past when he was too tired to sleep peacefully.
The quiet "night" permeated all around, and Crane heard the ticking of unscrewed faucets, the voices of voices in the Black Thorn Security Company, and the movement of the wind blowing through the staircase.
Other than that, he didn't see anything he shouldn't see, he didn't hear anything he shouldn't hear.
"Very good. Crestai's magnetic voice dispelled the darkness, allowing the gaslight inside and outside the alchemy chamber to reappear in Klein's eyes.
Klein Huo Ran was relieved from his thick exhaustion and regained his spirits just now.
Before I knew it, it affected me...... This is the level of Sequence 5? This is the horror of the High Deacon?
Crestai Cessima's hands were clasped together on his knees, and his whole body shrank down a little, so that his lips were blocked by the high vertical neckline:
"You've passed the test, and you've mastered potions to the point where you're above excellent. ”
"Next, I want to observe whether there are hidden dangers in your body, mind and spirit, and whether the spirit of the remnants of the potion has unconsciously changed your personality and left problems. ”
"You have three minutes to adjust to your condition. ”
Klein immediately said:
"Okay. ”
He inhaled to himself and slowly entered a meditative state, getting rid of all kinds of bad thoughts.
Crestai didn't say anything more, pulled out a silver pocket watch from the inside of his black trench coat, and snapped it open.
Then, he watched intently as the second hand clicked and moved.
Three minutes later, Crestai snapped his pocket watch shut and said with a smile:
"I started chanting. ”
Crane looked puzzled.
Without waiting for him to speak, Crestai hummed a melodious melody.
The melody reverberated through the alchemy chamber, gradually losing its harmony and no longer conforming to its tone.
Klein seemed to hear the sound of his nails scratching the blackboard, the sound of plastic foam rubbing, the sound of an electric drill tuk-tuk, and all sorts of noises that drove him crazy.
The noise became more and more chaotic, and it made his heart want to vent the violent desire to destroy.
But Klein, who was often put to the test of frantic babbling and terrible screams, quickly suppressed his impulses.
He also showed a little restlessness, a little nervousness, a little agitation, and a little restlessness.
Too perfect is the problem!
At some point, Crestai Cesima stopped chanting, and the noise in the alchemy room died down, and the peace and silence of the earth came back to him.
It's nice to be quiet!, Crane sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"Very good, very good, there is no hidden danger in your body, mind and spirit, of course, you want to hit me, want to plug my mouth, it is a normal reaction. Crestai's lips were obscured by a high-standing collar, making it possible to judge his emotions only by the tone of his voice.
"No, I don't dare. Klein honestly admitted.
Crestai laughed and said:
"Congratulations, you passed all the tests, followed by a Q&A session. ”
His dark green eyes suddenly became deeper, and his gaze seemed to be so dark that he could see through the flesh and the soul.
"Excuse me. Klein straightened his back and said.
Crestai kept his posture unchanged and asked casually:
"You said it was the Divination Club experience that gave you a quick mastery of potions?"
"Yes. Klein replied very calmly, but did not go into any further description.
Crestai nodded slightly:
"You say this was inspired by the 'Voyeur' maxim and Daly's example?"
"Hmm. Klein first affirmed, then changed the conversation to explain in detail, "I know from a 'voyeur' teammate that the probability of any 'voyeur' who abides by the motto is much lower than normal, and after that, I heard what Ms. Dali once said, she said that she wants to be a real 'psychic', and she is a genius who has been promoted to Sequence 7 in two years. ”
"Combining these two sides, I think I can try it, to be a real 'soothsayer', and summarize and refine the 'soothsayer's code', well, the results of the attempt are much better than I expected, I quickly mastered the potion, Sir Secima, I don't know if you have a similar experience, when you really master the potion, there will be a special and wonderful feeling......" Klein described his own experience, vaguely and unclearly explained the "play".
In his previous life, he would definitely be nervous and blush if he said so many half-truths in front of such a powerful night watchman, but since he crossed into this world, he has told too many lies, and he has long been accustomed to similar things, and he has played flawlessly.
The depth in Crestai's dark green eyes disappeared, his gaze returned to his original appearance, and he chuckled:
"Rest assured, it's not an illusion. ”
From his answer, Klein did not perceive the doubt and scrutiny, and his heart quietly relaxed.
"Dunn confirms your experience, and I think you are indeed a genius with clear logic and sharp intuition. Crestai complimented and asked, "Do you have any experiences to share with your teammates?"
"Of course. "I want to help them reduce the probability of losing control, we are teammates, we are teammates who have to face danger together, I can't think of any reason to hide it, and for that reason, I didn't tell the civilians." ”
Crestai lowered his right leg and sat up straight, allowing his thinner lips to peek out from the shadow of the vertical neckline.
The corners of his mouth turned up:
"It's been less than two months since you've joined the Nightwatch, but I think you know your companions better than many people. ”
"Well, I'm going to share some experiences with you, but according to the rules of the Templar, you have to swear to the Goddess that you can't tell people who don't know about these things about what we talked about. ”
"No problem, right?"
Klein was overjoyed and nodded without hesitation:
"No problem!"
Although I can no longer directly teach others how to play the law, I can still do it indirectly through Miss "Justice" and Mr. "Hanged Man"!
