Chapter 145: Three Questions

Sure enough, he already knew that I had become an "instigator"!

Angel's chest tightened, then she felt a pang of relief - she had been a little worried since Daly's reaction to the fact that the examiner Crestai Cesima might have known that she had been promoted to Sequence 8, and now that the other boot had fallen to the ground, her hanging heart was relieved.

It's already this point anyway......

"In Port Enmat, while supporting the Night Watch Squad there, I took potions and became an instigator, and earlier, by summarizing the 'Assassin' code, I felt like I had mastered potions."

Angel answered truthfully, but carefully did not reveal that he was already familiar with the "acting".

"Port of Enmat...... It's the case of tracking down the human trafficking of the 'Witch Sect' and the 'Aurora Society'...... I understand. ”

Crestai nodded, paused, and asked a second question:

"Where did your 'Instigator' potion recipe and main ingredient come from?"

Here it comes!

Since Dunn Smith broke into 6 Daffodil Street at night and interrogated Angel in a dream, she has once again been faced with this situation of "having to tell the truth".

Instead of answering immediately, she was ticking in her mind, and Krestai did not urge, but put his hand on the silver-white metal box on his lap and rhythmically tapped the lid with his index finger with a crisp tapping sound.

"The recipe for the potion came from Cole Granger, and he got it from Lady Sharon...... Hmm, you know Cole, right? Angel said slowly, and only continued after receiving an affirmative answer from Crestel, "The main material was purchased in the underground market of Port Enmat. ”

She explained that the acquisition of the "Extraordinary Properties" was the purchase of potions master materials, which was not a lie, nor was she hiding the truth.

"Acquired ...... As far as I know, the Potions Master Material for Sequence 8 usually costs more than £600, how do you ...... Wait, that's not the third question. ”

Crestai spoke as if talking to himself, suddenly alert at the end, and did not waste a third opportunity to ask a question. His shoulders were slightly raised, raising the collar of his trench coat even higher, almost obscuring half of his face.

If you ask, I'll answer it right away, anyway, I don't steal or rob......

A smile curled up at the corners of Angel's mouth, and she immediately tensed her facial muscles, pressed down the corners of her mouth, and made a serious expression.

"Ahem...... So, that brings me to the last question. The high-ranking deacon, who covered the lower half of his face with his neckline, said, "Did you hurt innocent people at the stage of mastering assassin potions?" ”

"Nope."

Before Crestel's words fell, Angel answered directly without the slightest hesitation.

His dark green eyes stared at Angel, and Crestai was silent for a long time, until the former blinked nervously, and then he relaxed his whole body, and said as if relieved:

"It seems that you are telling the truth."

"What if I lied?" Angel asked curiously, "What kind of punishment will you receive if you break the oath you just made?" ”

"You won't want to know."

Crestai said mysteriously.

I really want to know! But you don't say it, and neither does Ms. Dai Li......

Angel opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't blurt it out.

Probably seeing the changing expression on her face, Crestel's facial muscles twitched again, revealing an incomplete smile under the collar of his coat, and then he stood up with the silver metal box, walked to the long table that had been dragged to the corner, and opened the lid with his back to Angel.

From his side, a pure white glow from the bone sword could be seen.

After a few moments, Crestel closed the metal box and removed the iron pot, the vessel for pure water, and various auxiliary materials from the alchemy table.

Angel stared blankly at the senior deacon, and without the main ingredients of the potion, he scooped up several plant juices and flower powders, and put them into the iron pot together with pure water.

Finally, with a "bang", the results of the unidentified liquid mixed together were poured into the sewer.

"Congratulations, Angel Granger, Nightwatcher, you have successfully passed the Templar examination, now please take the potion and become the Extraordinary of Sequence 8."

Putting down the iron pot, Crestai turned around and solemnly announced to Angel.

"Thank you...... Thank you? ”

Angel looked at the high deacon, and then at the "King's Potion" in the iron cauldron.

Could he be...... Endorse me and prove to the other Tingen night watchmen that I have become an "instigator" under his watchful eye?

As Daly said?

After thinking about this, Angel stood up from the high-backed chair, faced the "Goddess Sword" and solemnly drew the crimson moon on his chest, and said:

"Praise be to the Goddess, and thank you, Your Excellency Secima, that I have been successfully promoted."

"Praise be to the Goddess!" The latter bowed slightly, "There is still a little time to go, if you have any questions, you can ask them now." ”

Why did they conceal the "law of playing", what was the punishment for breaking the oath, and how did the church learn that it had been promoted to "instigator...... Angel had countless questions in her mind, but she knew that most of them would not be answered from here, and in the end, she carefully chose one of them.

"Are the three questions that I swore to answer just now that every night watchman has to answer when he passes the examination?"

"Of course not, it's just you," Crestel continued as he sat back in his high-backed chair with the silver metal box and put it at his feet, "I've heard about you when I was in the Templar, and when you submitted your special application, there was a lot of opposition within the church, and some people thought that the role of the 'witch' path would cause great harm to the church and society as a whole, and that it would be enough to let you stay in Sequence 9. ”

Angel's eyes widened, she didn't expect that there would be such a complicated situation behind her promotion.

"But for some reason, and out of my own will, the Templar finally asked me to examine you, adding those three questions to the usual procedure."

"Congratulations, you passed the test."

The entire alchemy chamber fell silent for a long time.

It didn't take long for Angel to react, and the other party was waiting for him to continue asking questions.

"Then, the 'play' you just mentioned, and the 'playfulness' in the oath...... Is that the kind of experience we've learned about getting to know potions quickly? ”

As if he didn't expect the second question to be so simple, Crestai was stunned for a moment before answering: "That's right, it's a method that has been explored and summed up by generations of geniuses in the church, which can not only avoid getting out of control, but also quickly master potions." ”

"By deconstructing the name of the potion and knowing its key rules, 'playing' as such a person minimizes the risk of getting out of control. With 'playing', your control over potions is like 'digesting' food, and when it's completely digested and your stomach is empty, you get a wonderful, unique feeling, but I think you already know that. ”

It seems that there is no difference between the "playing method" within the church and the private transmission of the wild extraordinary...... So why hide it from ordinary night watchmen? Is it really as Klein and I guessed, in order to prevent too rapid promotion, to prevent the snatching of limited potion resources?

Even Dai Li doesn't know, and if I ask here, I don't think I will get a result......

Angel thought for a moment, as if digesting the new knowledge she had heard, before she nodded:

"Thank you, Your Excellency Cessima, I have no more problems."

"Very well, then, you can go up and tell the rest of your teammates the good news of the promotion, and by the way, call Mr. Klein Moretti down."

Crestai said with his head tilted slightly, revealing his pointed chin and thin, stiff lips from behind his collar.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Angel retired peacefully and closed the door to the alchemy room.

In the hallway surrounded by gaslamps and dark emblems, she breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that he passed the examination safely.
