Chapter 338: Qualifications, and Liars......
"After staying on the front line for so many years, being held in the palm of his own commanders every day, and spending the taxes of hundreds of millions of citizens of the empire, as a result, he has cultivated such a little ability?"
Sherlock said coldly to a soldier who had just woken up:
"I'll be honest with you, I don't care if you can pass these tests or not, and I don't care if you can write a practical textbook.
I just feel sad for the citizens of the Empire.
If they knew that the Holy Sect Army they had high hopes for was actually a group of noble young masters who couldn't endure any hardship, then I really don't know if they would regret it when they worshipped in the church, and felt that the property they had donated might as well be kept for their old friends to buy a decent dress.
At least in the rice fields, skirts are much more convenient than trousers. ”
Sherlock's words were like a lump of humiliating mud that stuck firmly on the face of the soldier in front of him.
The man's fists were clenched tightly, his face was pale, and under the extreme mental exertion, his whole body exuded fine beads of sweat, if someone spoke to him in this tone elsewhere, and insulted the Imperial Holy Cult Army by the way, then the soldier would probably slap the other party in the face, and then continue to fan until the other party's mouth was full of teeth flying and both ears were filled with blood.
However, this bastard in front of him is the person in charge of this operation, at least on this airship, he is his own commander, so as a soldier, he can't be rude to it.
"Mr. Holmes, as an Imperial soldier, I cannot tolerate what you just said, please retract your words and apologize to the soldiers of the Holy Cult."
He endured the dizziness that did not dissipate in his mind, and said very solemnly.
However, Sherlock was only slightly stunned, and then immediately realized:
"Oh, by the way, you are the elite who have been screened through layers and finally come to the fore, then I should indeed retract what I just said, because the Holy Cult Army is not all fools like you who only know how to enjoy happiness, they are not as good as you."
Most of the time, Sherlock doesn't like to attack people with words, because he feels that the lethality is too low.
But that doesn't mean he has a bad ability to hurt people
"Don't look at me with the murderous look you have.
If you want to prove that you're still somewhat useful, then get up quickly and continue your test.
Didn't you say on the first day that you dreamed of becoming a contractor?
Can't stand it now?
Your dreams don't seem to be worth as much as the prostitutes of the women in the tavern alleys. ”
He said extremely ruthlessly, ignoring the other man's angry gaze.
It's been a full week, and during that week, these people have undergone almost hellish training.
Whether they admit it or not, in the past week, their control of demons has indeed made extremely obvious progress, and the demons who originally had no connection with themselves can now accept their own instructions slightly, and even a few guys can control small demons to carry out simple actions such as running and jumping.
From this point of view, the training arranged by this man named Sherlock did play an extremely efficient role.
But people are dignified and bloody, not to mention predators who have been tempered between life and death! During this week, they had to endure the cynicism and sometimes insults of the guy in front of them, in addition to hard training.
This made the anger of this group of people have already accumulated to a peak.
"Mr. Holmes, after analyzing the data of the soul visual device put on the front line, it takes at least 7 months for a person to contract a demon, and now that it has only been seven days, we have already achieved something.
This is, of course, directly related to the training method you give.
But we also put in a lot of effort.
So what you have been saying and doing is not really too harsh? ”
The burly Cult soldier had been the most daring of the week because he would voice his grievances almost every time.
Of course, Sherlock never changed his harsh, even abusive, ways.
"Harsh? Haha, did you misunderstand something? Sherlock smiled and said, "A week, just a contract connection with a wild demon, do you think that's a pretty good result?"
I go to the slums, £5 a week, and those street thugs can make the devil perform a live backflip! ”
The people in the conference room had been listening to this humiliation for several days, but they still couldn't get used to it, so someone stood up with obvious doubts and asked gloomily:
"So Mr. Holmes, since you're always saying that we're too slow and not working too hard. So may I take the liberty of asking, have you actually used this machine, and if so, how quickly can you make a contract with a wild demon? ”
"Of course I did."
Sherlock replied, in fact, he has not only used it, he should be regarded as the most efficient person in the entire empire to use this machine per unit of time, there is no one.
Even the maker of this machine, Charles. None of the Darwinian professors could compare with him.
"As for the fastest?"
Sherlock thought for a moment: "It should be about two hours." ”
He said a time that was barely acceptable.
Two hours
But in fact, if it was a first-order demon with extremely low intelligence attributes, Sherlock could have done it in less than 15 minutes. Of course, this is only if he uses the machine, not with his own contract tentacles.
With those little tentacles, Sherlock would only need 1 minute to claim a demon for himself.
However, even this kind of double-thought, extremely modest and cautious answer still made the entire conference room silent for a moment!
No one thought that this hateful guy in front of him had really used this machine!!
Because he said that he was a second-order contractor, since this was the case, he must already have a contract demon, so it was absolutely impossible for him to use this machine to have a contract relationship with a wild demon again.
Although the soul visual device can break the iron rule that one person can only have one contract creature to some extent, two contract demons are enough to burn out anyone's brain!
Not only that, but this guy actually said that he could complete a contract in two hours?
Finally, a person couldn't stand the torture and humiliation of these days, coupled with the other party's unashamed boasting at this time, he stood up and questioned loudly with anger:
"Forgive me for being abrupt, but Mr. Sherlock, I feel like you're insulting our intelligence!
If you've ever used this machine and managed to make a contract with a wild demon, could you please summon those two demons here? ”
Sherlock didn't say a word, just squinted his eyes and glanced at the soldier who stood up:
"No, I can't. I am not obligated to fill in your ignorance, and you are not in a position to demand anything from me to prove anything for you. ”
His response, in the eyes of others, was obviously a hypocritical evasion, so as soon as these words came out, the soldier immediately seemed to grasp a cowardly tail:
"Then Mr. Holmes, if we meet your requirements when the airship reaches the Reddeck Strait, and really find a more suitable method of the Wild Demon Contract.
I don't know. Do you have the qualifications to prove that you are not a liar who only brags, but does not have any real material? ”
(It's been a little too much in the past two days, and I'll arrive at the front line in a few days, it's a big plot again, everyone votes, thank you~)
