Chapter 471: The Pretender

One of the recruits, "Block 7", will carry William deeper into the depths.

Along the way, William also played a little bit of his social, chatting with each other without regard for the potential dangers of the circus, and asking questions about the 'poker face' as soon as he came up, whether the suit and numbers symbolized status.

Because of William's wonderful performance, the recruiter secretly believed that he was likely to pass the follow-up review and become a magician's assistant, so he answered very calmly.

The so-called recruiter belongs to the internal management of the circus, that is, he is promoted by the 'receptionist'. When the recruiter talked about the receptionist, the colors on his face were huddled, apparently unwilling to recall the painful past.

When you have worked as a receptionist for 50 years and meet the criteria, you will be promoted to Pokerface.

The initial number of points is [1], which indicates the power position of the manager in numerical order, and his current 7 is already a relatively high level, and he was responsible for managing the entire recruitment team before.

As for the suits, they represent different functions,

Spades - Ruling and punishment for violations and mistakes within the competent circus.

Red Hearts - in charge of the planning and arrangement of various large and small circus projects, venue design, lighting scheduling, and program arrangement for each performance (need to discuss with the corresponding performers)

Meihua - recruitment of supervisors, work deployment and arrangement of low-level personnel.

Block - In charge of finances and procurement of external materials.

After the introduction of the manager, William also basically understood the grassroots structure of the circus, looked at the other party's poker face and continued to ask:

"What about poker faces with numbers above ten?"

"That's the presence of the venue director, second only to the head of the troupe and the main performers of each show, who are the core of the grassroots work and the most efficient scheduling for our managers.

Any poker face of more than ten is enough to become a city manager in a neutral city, and their abilities are extremely outstanding. ”

"So it's possible for you to ascend too?"

"Yes, as long as the number can reach [10], you can participate in the annual supervisor competition, and as long as the competition is successful, you can be assigned to the supervisor poker face of [J], [Q] or [K] according to the individual's functional strengths."

"I see, I hope you can be promoted to supervisor soon.

Also, I have one last question, how does the circus make money if the audience can go to the circus to see a grand and magnificent show without paying anything? ”

As he spoke about this, Pokerface shook his fingers.

"Mr. William, you seem to have gotten me wrong, the audience just didn't have to pay for the entrance, but they paid enough for the viewing.

This 'expense' is enough to support the operation and expansion of the entire circus. ”

"The body and soul of the audience?"

"No, no, no, we're not that superficial.

If that's all there is to it, then what's the difference with the slave market. Moreover, these infected humans are protected by the "Protection Order", and if we treat them maliciously and sell human beings, they will be jointly hunted down by multiple source areas.

Since you may become one of us, please remember.

We are at the service of fear.

Fear is the expense, and all our performances are based on fear, and the fear that overflows from the depths of the audience who watch the performance and can't contain the fear will be paid to the circus as a fee.

This new type of virtual currency was of great interest to even the Duke. ”

"Fear......

William also realized that the moment he took the ticket and chose to accept the invitation, some kind of fear-related seed was planted in his brain.

At this point, Pokerface stopped.

"Mr. William, take the elevator in front of you to reach the magic preparation room, there is information that you meet the preconditions, as soon as you sit on it, there will be a formal assistant review, good luck."

"Okay."

William stepped into the special elevator with the magic hat label on it and didn't feel much tension.

Because of the circus' magic head, the current magician - Jain. Kiruat, William had seen in nightmares, and had even spoken to each other.

William chose the position of [Magician's Assistant] not only because he knew magicians, but also because he was proficient in related disease techniques.

Instead, when he visited the Cancer Palace before, he accidentally heard from Lady Olena that the current magician was a special being who had crawled out of the abyss, which made William smell an opportunity that might be related to his own path.

Ding dong!

A radio voice was heard - "You are about to arrive at the [Transit Room] on the Magic Floor, and you will be reviewed by the greatest magician of this century, Mr. Jain, for your assistants."

The elevator doors open.

The smell of rotten wood, rusty metal, and rotting corpses rushed to William's mouth and nose, but it was effectively filtered by the scarf.

In front of me, there are not all kinds of high-end magic props, luxurious and neat magic room, but similar to a basement utility room, I feel that no one has been here for a long time.

Older mechanical devices such as bird cages, walking sticks, or traditional prosthetic limbs,

Or some bottles and jars full of living organs are placed here,

There are even some appliances used to fix the human body, such as water tanks, cutting kits, and so on.

These things seemed to be the equivalent of traditional magic, and there was nothing unusual about them, and as William stepped forward, the wooden door at the end of the room pushed inward.

Under the bowler hat was a Guy. Mr. Jain, in Fox Mask, stepped into the transit room with a white glove and a cane.

Before William could speak, a voice came from under the mask:

"Hmm~ The image is barely passable, since you can let those poker faces let you over, it also means that you have a little ability.

But I don't see any trace of magician-related training in you, nor do I feel any fear-related aura or potential.

The circus is currently in the expansion phase, and we don't have the strength to raise a new talent from scratch with unknown potential, and you can leave!

Just go back the way you came, and don't worry, because you pass the pre-test, the poker faces will only brainwash you with a simple oblivion and send you out of the circus. ”

With that, Jain turned to leave.

"Wait, Mr. Fake Jain, there's something wrong with what you just said."

William specifically added a Fake in front of Jain's name.

These words made Jain, who had turned his back, stop, and his tone became stern, and the transit room he was in now began to vibrate, and even many equipment fell to the ground.

"If you can't say my words in five seconds, out of offense to me and the circus, you're going to have to pay enough fear to leave.

5,

4,

3,

2,

1! ”

At the end of the five seconds to the end, William did not give any verbal answer.

Jahn's face was fierce, the bridge of his nose even distorted, and the prosthesis stuffed inside liquefied with anger, slowly flowing out of his nostrils, and even the entire mask was slowly liquefiing.

However, the moment Jain turned his head, the scene in front of him made him stunned.

William was bound by iron chains, and the whole person was suspended in the air in the form of a cross.

"Dead man's makeup" has been opened,

The hand axe has already cut his head in advance, and half of his head has slipped to the ground...... The gesture of the cross and the half-head was directly imprinted into Jain's mind, as if he had been taken to the depths of the original tomb to witness the first death.

A wave of fear spilled over Jain's body, and his mask and disguised appearance dissolved completely, revealing an old, ugly face.

Syllable!

William snapped his fingers.

The chain was retracted, and the head was spliced ~ He personally returned to a normal state.

The circus personnel in front of him who disguised Jain also returned to reality from the pull of death, and the camouflage was extremely foul with the residue of cortical mucus after the disguise had dissolved.

William said with a smile: "I still have a certain understanding of fear, after all, my childhood was also spent in fear.

Sorry I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is William. Behrens, it's a pleasure to meet a Pi Nu like you here, and if we can, we can talk about Pi in the future. ”

When William talked about Pi, the old man who was good at disguise was obviously a little repulsed, but he was really shocked by the ability shown by the other party.

"Just call me Ulise, I'm just one of Lord Jain's assistants, and you're barely getting through the censorship. However, whether he can really become an assistant still needs to be affirmed by Lord Jahn in person.

Come with me, Lord Jain is very busy, after all, he needs to design and think of new magic tricks every day, and he has no time to see you.

You need to be patient, I came to the circus and waited for seven days and seven nights in front of the adults. ”

"Okay, please let Mr. Ulise lead the way."
