Chapter 481: circus rules

  Chapter 481 The Rules of the Acrobatic Troupe

  The number of beasts in the zoo has reached more than 300, of which 23 are perfect beasts that can be used for performances.

   Among the twenty-three, there is a special existence, which even completed the path in the state of animalization and became the most proud beast creation of Zuoke.

   Finally got special approval from the boss in a great show to make the beast a sub-tamer.

  「Kalopez」

  During the three people's visit to the zoo, they could always feel a cold stare from some kind of snake. William also spied a jasper snake body occasionally appearing in the beams, shadows and corners of the zoo, and followed closely in the dark.

   She didn't leave until she received Zucker's eye signal.

  Walking in the second half of the zoo, this area was reserved in advance by the circus, and there are no wild animals to stay in, so there is nothing to see and naturally there is no communication.

  William, who was caught in the middle, can clearly feel the atmosphere of embarrassment and conflict that may break out at any time,

  In order to ease the atmosphere, William began to talk about a topic, which was also a topic that he was very interested in.

   "Senior Zucker, by the way, the main members of the circus like you should often do other things besides performing?"

  "Yes, we often have some party activities, even activities that the boss personally participates in or even initiates, such as [Magic Banquet].

  This is one of my favorite activities. The boss requires every key member to make a dish that they are best at in the Sabbat room for others to taste.

   The one with the most votes will get a private chat with the boss.

   Although the "Carved and Roasted Fresh Brain Flowers" I made have not won the first place, the quality is definitely the highest. "

   Puchi~ Catherine on the side couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

   "Haha! You really have the nerve to say that the dishes you make are delicious~ What is the so-called fine carving, it's just good-looking on the surface. It's not because the carving time is too long, and the inside of the brain is smelly."

   "Bah! The boss has the nerve to say me when the octopus **** burst into ink? If I were the boss, I would fire you on the spot."

  It was just an awkward atmosphere, because this topic became tense.

  William can only do his best to try to change the subject, "Speaking of which, will there be a 'discussion' among your main members or will there be a clear ranking of strengths and weaknesses?"

  As soon as this was mentioned, Zucker also became interested.

   "There is a ranking, but it is just a ranking for the pros and cons of circus performances. The final ranking is the quality of performance, the amount of fear harvested, and the evaluation of the boss.

   As for individual strength? Although this is not clearly listed, everyone basically knows that the strength of Miss Catherine like you is naturally at the bottom. "

   "How dare you, the master animal trainer, compare yourself to me? How long have I been in the circus, and how long have you been here? Why don't you compare yourself with Boss Art?"

   "Ate? Hmm... Although one-on-one is very troublesome, if you count the beasts I cultivated, you should be able to barely overwhelm him, right?"

   "Bah! If the boss is excluded, Yate's personal strength will definitely rank among the top three in the circus."

   "Top three? Is the clown boss who thinks so highly of your family? Then tell me who the other two are?"

   "Who else, it must be Uncle Jain and the pervert from the acrobatic troupe."

   "I have no objection to these two people, and your voice should be quieter, Catherine... We are on the way to the acrobatic troupe. If that guy hears it, your boss may not be able to protect you."

   After being reminded like this, Catherine trembled all over, her arms tightly wrapped around William's arms, and she stopped talking.

   It wasn't until she found out that she hadn't left the zoo that she realized that she had been tricked, and immediately made a grimace at the opposite Zoke.

  This conversation aroused William's curiosity, "By the way, who are you talking about? A certain head of the acrobatic troupe?"

  Catherine explained this time, "As the largest organization under the circus, the Acrobatic Troupe is jointly managed by three directors, and there are differences between the three directors.

  William The Mosander you met before was the guy who was good at walking on stilts and making braised chicken wings. He was just the new third regiment leader who had just completed the pathway and was temporarily promoted, belonging to the lowest rank.

   There are two guys on his head,

   And the one who ranks first among them is what we call...'pervert'. "

  Katherine deliberately lowered her voice when she said the last words, so as not to be heard by others.

   "What kind of person is it?"

  "It can't be completely called a person or a patient. In short, it's not easy to describe. It's better to witness this kind of abnormality with your own eyes. Anyway, the next stop is the acrobatic troupe. Maybe you can see this guy.

  Although I and Zucker are with you, William, you still have to pay attention to the "rules" of the acrobatic troupe. "

   "Rules? Can you explain in detail?"

  Catherine did not dictate directly, but stretched her arms into her chest, and after a while of fiddling inside, she took out a crumpled piece of paper.

  ≮Acrobatic Troupe Precautions (Visitors)≯

  1. Jumping is prohibited. Any form of feet off the ground in the circus area is quite dangerous.

  2. It is forbidden to use any performance props of the acrobatic troupe. If you see scattered props, please ask the staff of the acrobatic troupe to help pick them up.

  3. There may be 'rabbits' inside the acrobatic troupe. If you encounter a rabbit, please confirm its eye color immediately. Visitors need to do different things according to the eye color.

   (red) Immediately evacuate from the current area until exiting the acrobatic troupe.

   (White) pretends not to be seen, just pass by the rabbit, absolutely no interaction of any kind.

   (green) is completely harmless and will protect your safety. If necessary, you can invite it to stand on your shoulders and accompany you through the tour.

   (Black) Please immediately notify the members of the nearest acrobatic troupe to arrest them, and you can also participate in the arrest. If you can submit it to the acrobatic troupe, you will get a normal reward.

  4. If you come across the internal rehearsal of the acrobatic troupe by chance, please keep quiet. If there is a slight noise and the rehearsal fails, the individual needs to replace the loser to complete the performance until it is completely successful.

  Looking at the above rules, William couldn't help but recall the various rule-based incidents he encountered before he became a gentleman.

   "Rabbit...this rule is kind of weird."

   "That's right, the abnormality we mentioned is related to rabbits. Anyway, once you encounter a rabbit, follow the rules."

  The three returned to the original crossroads, and they were about to go to the largest department in the circus-'Acrobatics'.

  As the passage deepens, arrows with rabbit marks appear on both sides.

  ‘Acrobatic troupe ahead, please stay away from idlers’

   ‘Beware of Rabbits’

  ‘Be careful of falling objects’

   'Do not disturb the acrobatics'

   ‘Never make any verbal comments about the behavior of the circus’

  The strange warning signs invisibly gave a kind of mental pressure, and finally, under the leadership of Zuo Ke, he went straight through the curtain at the end of the corridor.

  A super-large area similar to a photography base is presented in front of you. Various closed studios with a size of tens of meters or even a size of 100 meters are stacked inside.

   In every studio, the sounds of flesh and blood colliding and screams can be heard, which is inexplicably philosophical.

  The gaps left between the studios constitute a maze-like passage, bypassing these passages and reaching the opposite side can complete the entire visit of the acrobatic troupe.

   Some studios that are not closed are allowed to enter and watch,

  William glanced quietly at the first open studio, and happened to see a scene of 'body stitching', where acrobats were putting their bodies together with others. The scene was weird.

   I even saw an advanced version of the human centipede crawling fast and doing some difficult moves,

  The former person cut off the soles of the feet, and connected the heel bone to the shoulder bone of the second person. Everyone crawled completely relying on the strength of their arms, and even achieved the whole body of the centipede through group crunches.

  William is not very interested in this kind of body stitching. When he looks back and continues to go deeper,

  jiji~

  A rabbit jumped out suddenly.

  The emerald-like pupils were very conspicuous, and William immediately knelt down and waved to the rabbit, exuding a camouflaged friendly atmosphere all over his body.

  Catherine on the side did the same thing, and even took out a carrot from the treasure chest to lure her.

  But the rabbit seemed to smell a little malice in Catherine, and finally jumped on William's shoulder.

  crack~

   The moment he jumped onto his shoulder, William froze for a moment.

  Because what he felt was not the tactile sensation of a rabbit standing on his shoulder, but more like being put on his shoulder by someone.
