The Last Gentleman

Chapter 494: Approval and Career

 Chapter 494 Approval and Career

The performance is only three hours long, but uses illusion and hypnosis to allow the audience to spend their entire lives in a closed and desperate space, maximizing fear.

Pa bang bang ~ applause came from the audience,

First came the applause from the magician Jain, who highly praised William's performance, followed closely by Catherine.

at last,

Sister Natalie, who was holding her arms to watch the magic troupe make a fool of themselves at first, also widened her eyes. It was her first time to see this kind of performance in the form of a "movie of life", and two of the four hands started to applaud.

 The performance is over.

The audience, with the concept of death embedded in their brains and the fear completely drained from their bodies, walked off the stage like zombies.

 They have judged themselves dead deep in their hearts, their consciousness cannot be condensed, and the drain of fear has also caused them to be unable to produce any emotions, which is equivalent to an ownerless body.

 The final outcome must be to be uniformly processed by the circus, killing the body and burying it together.

However, just as the receptionist was about to clear out the group of walking dead.

William suddenly raised his voice, "Wait a minute, it would be too wasteful to deal with it directly. The audience will be abandoned by the circus anyway, right? Can you sell them to me? I am willing to spend the fear solution earned from this performance to buy it. Access to this group of bodies.”

The host in charge of the trial operation of this venue - Q of Hearts scratched the playing cards on his face in confusion, "This is the first time I have encountered this request. Wait a moment, I need to verify the specific cost with the financial department."

Poker Face seems to be able to communicate on a circus-wide scale, and answers come quickly.

“We have already communicated that after deducting the cost of your venue construction, an additional 10% will be taken as the purchase fee for the audience’s bodies. If possible, you can dispose of these bodies now.”

"OK."

  The host of Q of Hearts thought that William might be a sick person like a puppet master, and planned to use these bodies as materials.

Who knew, something beyond her imagination would happen again.

William stood in front of all the audience, using a spiritual pull to make all the audience face him...Click! Opening the skull reveals the black brain inside.

When the zombie-like audience saw the epileptic brain, they were instantly "civilized" without any conscious defenses.

 With the completion of the education, the audience’s eyes also regained their bright look,

 The concept of death has completely wiped out their influence, and their strong desire for knowledge forces them to reconstruct their consciousness.

 Although the negative impact of fear of being drained still exists, preventing them from producing various emotions, the "desire for knowledge" will give them a clear direction to move forward so that they can strive to live in the old world in order to gain more knowledge.

After doing all this, William asked the host behind him: "They should be able to leave the circus, right?"

“You can’t, you can’t leave! They did not persist until the end, they only regained consciousness because of your ability. Once they leave, some of the secrets of the circus may be revealed.”

“They have been enslaved by the crazy brain, and I have also cleared all memories of the circus from their brains, so there will never be any leaks.

 You can find out just by testing their memory. "

 “I can’t make a decision on this matter and need to report it to the superior.”

 While the host is preparing to contact the management team again.

Buzz! Waves of primal fear seeped from the floor.

 The long and deep voice came from the underground of the circus and reached everyone's heart.

"The mental enslavement of the lunatics enjoys the effect of complete control. The possibility of leaking secrets is indeed very slim. They can leave. However, once there is a leak in the circus and it is determined to be related to this group of people, you will bear the first responsibility."

Everyone in the audience, including the host of Q of Hearts and the three main members present, bowed their heads.

This is exactly the voice of the boss. No one expected that he would personally interfere with the trivial matters that happened in the trial operation room.

"good!"

With William’s agreement, this group of spectators whose brains were marked with epilepsy left one after another and returned to the town on their bicycles.

The audience exited and the boss’s voice came again.

“Use innovative programs and achieve “MaxAwesome” in the finale program with a very high degree of completion. Your performance talent is very outstanding.

 As a reward for maximizing fear, you will receive a "Sabbath Experience Ticket" that allows you to join the next Sabbat as a diner.

However, this finale performance cannot be completely regarded as magic. To some extent, it deviates from the theme of the magic area and is more like a "stage play" with a strong sense of substitution.

 In the future, you can strengthen your training in stage drama, and even train more performers with the ability to disguise and act. "

"OK."

With William's affirmative response, the primitive fear from the underground also dissipated, and the black hair floating between the floors was also retracted.

Magician Jaen stood beside him immediately and patted his shoulder, "The boss seems to like you very much... and the words just now seemed to want you to create a new department within the circus.

  That is the part of the stage play that you perform. "

"ah?"

“Now that the boss has expressed his opinion, I will also support your development. Go backstage to calculate the total fear value you earned during this performance, purchase some necessary supplies, and go back to continue practicing.

 I believe that with your ability, you can definitely take on such a position. As for your needs for the abyss, I will try my best to meet them, and do a good job! "

With his fingertips sliding, a string of playing cards surrounded Jain's body and disappeared into the performance area.

 “William! You...”

When Catherine jumped over, her ponytails felt like they were flying up, her legs wrapped tightly around her waist, and her arms hugged her neck tightly.

“The boss actually communicated with you personally during the trial operation. Wow! If you can really open a new department because of this, I will take advantage of it.”

  “What kind of glory do you have, aren’t you a deputy clown?”

“You are the boss of the new department, so don’t you give me another backing? If that rabbit bullies me again, I won’t be afraid.”

Just when Catherine said the word 'rabbit', a sharp sound came from the other side.

"As long as you break the rules, no matter how many chief members protect you, it will not help. Mr. Rabbit is second only to the boss. Catherine, if you dare to say these words that offend Mr. Rabbit again, be careful I will pull out your tongue."

The sound of warnings was accompanied by the sound of high heels. Sister Natalie, who was sitting on the opposite side of the audience, came over.

The sisters overlapped their bodies, and their postures were temporarily the same as those of normal people, but their two heads remained outside... It was the sister in her arms who gave the warning.

Just when Catherine tried to retaliate, and there was even a possibility of a conflict breaking out, William moved to stand between the two of them.

 Then he picked up the sisters’ overlapping arms and kissed the back of their hands.

“Sister Natalie, you must be the second leader of the acrobatic troupe. I am very honored that you can come to watch my performance. I will definitely visit the acrobatic troupe more often if I have the opportunity in the future.”

The anger of the Natalie sisters was suppressed by William's set of courtesy, and they themselves were impressed by such a wonderful performance, and they recognized in their hearts this newcomer who could reverse the adversity.

“Hmm... the interpretation of multiple roles is very good.

But you have to remember that the targets of your hypnosis this time are only the lowest infected humans. When it comes to the official performance, the audience who come to the scene are all patients who have completed open source and even have a certain prestige in the old world. They will not be led by you so easily. "

 “I know! My subsequent training will be gradually improved.”

“The attitude is very good~ As the boss said, it is a very exciting alternative performance, we like it very much~ We will come to the acrobatic troupe more often in the future. The sisters will receive you alone if they are free.”

"must."

By the time the sisters left on the catwalk, William could vaguely see signs of the uncanny valley with two to four legs constantly switching, but he didn't feel scared and never looked away.

Catherine on the side couldn't stand it for a long time, and quickly blocked William's gaze with her palm.

"Hey! How long do you want to keep watching? Do you want me to cut off all the legs of the two sisters and make them into specimens for you to see?"

William said with a serious face: "This is the first time I have seen such inline conjoined sisters. Don't get me wrong, my taste is not that strong."

"Bah! You're obviously looking straight! I'm warning you in advance, don't look at these sisters' fair skin and beauty. They are the earliest employees of the circus. They were also the chief troupe of the acrobatic troupe. They have at least thousands of years of history. age.

If you like this kind of old woman, go ahead and go. "

“Okay~ By the way, where is the backstage? Why don’t you go with me, Catherine? I have some consumption issues that I don’t quite understand yet, so I’ll try to use my money wisely.”

 Just as the two of them were walking backstage,

The circus door suddenly opened, accompanied by a vicious smell and the sound of flesh rubbing,

 At is back.

  A strange smile hung under his aquiline nose, and there was an obvious cut mark on his clown suit.

 “William, your friend is very powerful.”
