Chapter 265 Lan Qi's black and white duality
The atmosphere in the hall was so tense that it was almost cut to pieces.
Caius sat on the high main seat and stared coldly at the candidates in the distance.
The dark gray and heavily armored priest next to him held his breath, as if the air in the entire hall was frozen.
In less than a minute, a villain took the lead in submitting a disrespectful act against the Lady of Destiny to Archpriest Caius.
“High Priest Caius, I'm done.”
The submitter presented the hammered stone statue of Fate with a confident smile on his face.
However.
Caius just glanced coldly.
He shook his head.
“Mere destruction is too low an insult.”
The villain's expression suddenly changed, and he wanted to say something to defend himself.
But I saw Caius making a gesture, and the dark gray heavy-armored priest next to him immediately stepped forward, firmly grabbed his arm, and dragged him toward the deep passage of the hall.
The face of the villain was full of fear and disbelief, and he shouted: "I am loyal to the Resurrection Church! I have not betrayed!"
No one responded, and his call echoed in the empty hall until it disappeared.
Other candidates felt a chill when they saw this scene.
"This kind of perfunctory work does not prove your loyalty to me very well. If there is not enough loyalty, there will be serious suspicion of the Church of Destiny, and we will detain you for observation."
After Caius finished speaking, he once again held his chin with one hand and stopped talking.
Some villains immediately began to nervously revise their works, fearing that they would also be considered unqualified.
At this time, some people in the audience also figured it out.
Caius In fact, no matter whether the candidates are really suspected of the Goddess of Destiny Church, they will not easily let anyone who passes the written examination go to the Batian branch.
His real purpose is to take advantage of everyone present.
I originally thought that no one would submit any more work right away.
It was less than ten seconds.
A tall woman wearing a silver skirt and armor stood up and walked directly to Caius on the high platform.
Place a cube stone with six sides and clear edges on the table.
This made Caius slightly stunned for a while.
He did not expect West Germany, the most suspect, to be so straightforward.
She merely restored the Statue of Fortune to the most common stone.
A stone cube. I don't know whether she used unique magic or simple skills to pinch it out.
“Be decisive and quick, let you pass.”
After thinking about it, Caius placed the stone cube on the left side of the table.
The candidates' works were not discarded as before, but accepted, which is proof of passing.
Caius's original suspicion that she might be an undercover agent of the Church of Destiny actually became deeper now.
But if she was really an undercover agent, he would be more interested in recruiting her in to play with her and let her experience what it means to be unable to fly without wings and to be in extreme despair.
Many people in the audience raised their heads slightly to observe.
In fact, in their opinion, the work of this woman in silver skirt and armor could be either qualified or unqualified.
Perhaps it was actually her tough and decisive attitude that made Caius decide to let her pass.
Immediately, West Germany returned to his original seat, his expression as cold as ever, with his arms folded and his eyes closed, waiting for the announcement of the final review in more than 20 minutes.
Time passes minute by minute.
Next, some villains gradually completed their works and came forward to submit them.
[Fire Tongue] Leidor, who is quite famous among this group of people, slowly walked forward, his red hair flying in the wind, looking like a burning flame, and placed his completed stone statue of the Goddess of Destiny in front of Caius. , he burned the stone statue with flames and roasted it black, turning it into an ugly, charred corpse that was almost losing its human form and had been ravaged.
Caius stared at it for a while, nodded, put the work on the table, and signaled that he could leave.
The imitator of the Bishop of Destruction, Redor, looked back with a confident smile. Apparently he also felt that his work satisfied the requirements.
However, the next few committers were not so lucky.
Their works were deemed unqualified by Caius, and they were thrown directly into the **** heap. Their works were also escorted away by priests in dark gray and heavy armor, which caused panic among many candidates in the audience every time.
Nearly every submitter, when caught by a priest in dark gray armor, would keep shouting: "I am loyal to the Church of Resurrection! Why?"
But Caius didn't seem to care about this and just looked at the next submitter indifferently. Until [Meat Slag] Graf walked up solemnly, his huge body seemed to make the entire high platform seem small.
He put down the dismembered statue of Fate, just like he usually did with humans. Caius could even see tiny traces of blood on it.
Caius was silent for a moment, "This work... is very good."
And next.
Several villains who were favored by him in the written examination answer sheet review all submitted good answer sheets. [Sting] Walter carved the statue of the goddess of fate into a human form that died tragically due to the taboo living transformation, [ Blood Throat] Gia added musical magic to the Statue of Destiny, turning her into an evil **** struggling and wailing in hell.
Thors, the Eyeball Collector who submitted the work after them, slowly approached and handed the transformed Statue of Destiny to Caius.
The eyes of the stone statue have been removed, and many small holes have been dug out of the body, and the eyes of strange animals that look like living tissue from unknown sources have been filled in. I don't know what kind of magic has been added to it. When Caius looked at the stone statue, all the The eyes would also move together to meet Caius' gaze.
Even Caius felt a little disgusted and put it on the table as a qualified work.
As candidates' works are gradually submitted, some candidates who have not yet completed their work feel more nervous because of the “artwork” of these submitters.
The gears of the big clock above the door kept ringing, and every turn represented the passage of the remaining time.
“There are still ten minutes left.”
Caius' voice sounded, cold and emotionless,
“If you are unable to complete it on time, you will be directly regarded as a member of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny.”
His words blew through like a cold wind, lowering the temperature in the hall.
This kind of punishment and intimidation has undoubtedly greatly deterred other candidates who have not yet submitted, making them work harder.
Some of the candidates looked back at the clock, their eyes beginning to show nervousness and uneasiness, while some remained calm, as if they were very sure that their works would be recognized by Caius.
The candidates for the final review who have passed the exam are sitting there, with no expression on their faces.
Just waiting for the last time to end and the final assessment to come.
There are fewer and fewer candidates who are still working, and the crisp sound of the tools and stone statues in their hands is gradually unable to cover up the sound of the gears of the big clock.
Caius sat on the main seat, leaning slightly and holding his chin.
Although he did not set his sights on any candidate.
But among the remaining candidates, the only one who still attracted his attention was the young man named Rocky.
He felt that anyone who could write such a written test answer would hardly be suspected of being a clergyman of the Church of Destiny.
However, this re-examination is necessary, and everyone's composition must be identified.
No matter how excellent his written test scores are, once his stance and loyalty are not firm enough, he must be destroyed and cannot be used by anyone else.
finally.
While Caius is waiting.
Ranchi completed his work, with a hint of satisfaction and a little tiredness in his eyes, he stood up and walked towards Caius.
He placed the work before Caius.
is a reshaped stone statue of the goddess of destiny.
Caius raised his head slightly, looked at Lanci, and then turned to his work.
Then his eyes seemed to be fixed on the Statue of Destiny, and he was silent for a long time.
At the same time, because of the unusual silence caused by Caius's delay in giving an evaluation, some candidates gradually looked in the direction of Lanci's works.
The response from the young people who submitted their works was very indifferent.
It was his work that confused Caius.
The posture of the statue of the Goddess of Destiny that he carved has been slightly changed, and it has been reshaped into new movements and is extremely refined.
As if it were made by a peerless craftsman, the goddess's figure is vivid and full of warmth, as if she will move in the next second.
When other candidates saw Lanci's work, they couldn't help but be surprised by its artistry.
If they are all amateurs, this guy is definitely a professional among professionals. They have never even seen a sculptor of this level. Some even have greed in their eyes, trying their best to restrain the urge to **** this statue. No matter what it is, it must be a priceless masterpiece!
However, they soon noticed the problem with the modified statue.
The expression also became similar to that of Caius.
I saw the statue of the goddess, who was always full of divinity and quiet, with a slightly arrogant smile on her lips, and her posture changed to raising her hand with her index and middle fingers raised, making a V-shaped gesture with her palms facing inward.
It quite means to despise all the villains here.
Logically speaking, if the goddess of destiny is made so dazzling and beautiful, she should be directly judged as unqualified.
But Caius discovered a kind of duality in this guy—
He was a little confused as to whether Rocky was praising the goddess or slandering her?
