The Last Gentleman

  Chapter 489 Trial Operation and Official Performance

   Except for the performance area and the hidden snow area where the boss is located, I have basically gone through the main area of ​​the circus, and have had contact with most of the core members.

   Among them, the one that impressed William the most was Mr. Rabbit of the acrobatic troupe.

  Although Zucker and Catherine both warned the acrobatic troupe and Mr. Rabbit of the danger,

  But William will definitely go there afterwards. The cyberpunk-style flesh club is too spectacular and even crazy addictive. After experiencing the feeling of wearing a headgear once, I want to experience it for the second time.

  The next step is to return to the magic area, but the animal trainer Zok is still accompanying him all the way, with his arm tightly on William's shoulder.

   "Senior Zucker, I have a question."

   "Just ask."

"By the way, we haven't been to the performance hall yet, right? That's the area where the audience gathers... It's strange. Obviously, the main members are still in their respective areas for repairs and rehearsals. The performance that the audience who came from the human town saw was ?”

   "Well~ The circus is currently in the 'trial operation stage', and the people on the stage are all newcomers like you. They are used to accumulate performance experience and earn a little fear fee.

  It can also effectively recruit potential talents like William you.

   After all, this is just a low-level human captive area, not worthy of a formal performance at all. This kind of human being who has not yet opened up the source will die directly just by hearing the paradoxical rhythm played by the official performance.

  You really have to hurry up, there are still two days left in the trial operation, you can also take this opportunity to go on stage to practice and see how the effect is.

   After all, performance and strength are not directly linked. To be able to achieve a perfect fear performance, you need to complete a perfect analysis of yourself and others. "

   "Okay! I will prepare immediately when I go back. When will the circus officially start operation, and who is the target audience?"

   "The next official opening should be in a month, and the targets will often be targeted at multiple neutral cities that are associated with large organizations and the source of the epidemic. At that time, the way to convey the "ticket" will also become completely different.

   It will not be sent to the mailbox casually like the trial operation. After all, many organizations in the old world still don’t like us.

  The delivery method will be more secretive..."

  When Zucker explained to this point, Catherine on the side directly raised her right hand, "Hey! I am the key to selecting the audience and passing the tickets!

  The current "ticket system" of the circus is set around this clown. Compared with the previous system, the efficiency has been greatly improved. "

   This time, Zucker did not reply, but nodded affirmatively, "Yes, Catherine's characteristics are very suitable for audience screening and ticket delivery.

   It is precisely because the "nightmare phobia" derived from her is very distinctive and valuable, and is appreciated by the boss, so that she can take the position of "vice clown" before open source.

   This is the first time since the establishment of the circus that the open source patient has been given the main responsibility. "

   "Hey! People call it talent, okay. Uncle Jain also said that even if I don't act as a clown, I can still be a magician with him."

  William brought the topic back, "Catherine, how did you screen and deliver the tickets?"

"Just like in your human city, sneak in first, and then pass the nightmare substance through the most widely circulated food or water channel in the city, and let the undetectable thinking disease take root in them brain.

  When they fall asleep, they will choose one by one to choose the audience suitable for the circus.

  Subsequently, the scene of giving tickets was simulated through dreams. If they are willing to take the initiative to go to the circus without revealing the secret, I will get the real tickets after they wake up through "Nightmare Realization". "

   "Well, it's really good ~ but there is one problem.

  If someone sees through the dream in advance and pretends to cater to you and steal the circus position, how should you deal with it? There are many excellent patients who want to come to the old world, and there should be many people who can realize the invasion of nightmares at the first time, right? "

   "This is out of my control! I am only responsible for what I just said. If someone sees through this and tries to target the circus, the boss will issue an order in advance.

  If it is particularly serious, the performance will be canceled immediately, and the entire circus will be packed up and disappeared into the dark. The whole process will not take more than a minute.

Under normal circumstances, we will directly invite people with bad intentions to enter the circus and participate in a special performance prepared for them as an off-site guest, such as "Blood Maze", "Fear Royale", "Ancient "House of Cry" and so on.

  The effect is very good, deeply loved by the audience.

   Those who survive the performance will also be eligible to participate in the Sabbat, of course...they will not be the eaters, but the eaten. "

   "The boss still has the ability to predict?"

   "Hey! Your focus is so weird... But, the boss does have similar abilities.

   Not precognition but a complete affinity for fear. Any individual who tries to get involved with the circus will have more or less "fear". Once connected, the boss can know everything through fear. "

   "Who is the boss...?"

   "I don't know, even if we are core members, we often dine with the boss at the Devil's Banquet, and accept the boss's gift of fear, we still don't know the boss's life experience at all.

  In the entire circus, perhaps only Chef Timmy, the original employee who has been following the boss, knows some secrets.

  I feel that Chef Timmy likes you very much. Next time I bring my gold card to cook another amazing dish, maybe I can take the opportunity to ask. "

  Zoker immediately interrupted: "Don't listen to Catherine's bad words and whispers. Don't inquire about such things. Since the boss doesn't want us to know, then we don't need to know."

   "Exhibitionist, who are you talking about and whispering?"

  Zoke didn't respond. Anyway, he was in a good mood after today's trip, and he is now back at the crossroads again.

   Crack~ Crack!

  Patting William's back with a rough and powerful palm, he cast a look, reminding him not to forget the agreement between the two... Whoosh! One step disappears into the passage.

   "The nasty guy is finally gone! Once I take the position of the main clown, I won't let him go."

   "Oh? Are you planning to kick Art out so early?"

  Catherine also realized that she had said something wrong, and quickly covered her mouth with her hand, "I'm just joking~ I can't shake Art's position yet.

   Many dark and not-so-glamorous things in the circus need to be solved by the boss of Art.

  Many times, as long as the boss of Yate comes forward, many complicated and troublesome problems will disappear without detours. "

  William can vaguely feel that although Catherine has a certain fear of Art, there is also a little worship stuffed in this fear.

   "Catherine, don't be assimilated by Art, keep yourself."

   "I know~ But I don't have anyone to accompany me in the circus, so I live next door to the boss every day. The characteristic of the boss is unlimited proliferation, so it's strange not to be assimilated!

   Unless William stays with me for a long time, then I can slowly be assimilated by you, and even become your shape. "

   "Okay, let's talk about one thing we haven't fulfilled our promise, right? What about the "Fear Collection" that we promised to give after experiencing the clown assessment, hurry up and get it. "

  Catherine muttered, obviously unwilling.

   "Hey~ You were in the clown house before, but you escaped safely under my cover. Can you offset it?"

   "Two irrelevant things, okay? Besides, if I leave without taking the clown assessment, I won't meet Art at all. Hurry up!"

   "It's annoying, the collection is very precious, even I don't have many.

   That's it, take out three items and package them in a clown box. If you can choose the right one, it will be yours... The other two items are also valuable items, and you won't lose money anyway. "

   "You don't mean what you say, okay! Just do what you say, hurry up."

  Catherine took out her precious treasure chest, rummaged through it, and placed three clown boxes containing items in front of her.

  The moment the box was just placed, William's hand had already landed on the box on the right, and the lines of embers between his eyes and pupils faded away by themselves.

   "You cheated!"

   "You sealed the box yourself. I just made a choice. I'm willing to take the bet, Catherine~ See you next time."

  William rolled the box into the gentleman's clothes directly, turned around and walked towards the magic area, waving goodbye with one hand over his shoulder.

  Unexpectedly, Catherine had no intention of going back to the clown house, and followed directly.

   "It's fine for me to go back, and I also know some magic techniques, let me tutor you~ With the assistance of my official member, you can go on stage to rehearse faster.

  There is not much time left for this trial operation, let's hurry up. "

   Back home, the plane bumps all the way, headache and dizziness
