A figure wearing a black robe and a white mask squeezed into the barrier.
That was the clone that the Sinner had transformed into before. He handed back the contract burning with golden flames to the black cat, and then walked towards the Sinner in the barrier. After the two came into contact, they quietly merged into one person again.
The black cat did not raise its paw to accept the contract, but directly fired a burst of magic power to wipe out the contract. Then he looked back at Mammon. The wizard wearing a fox mask nodded to the black cat very politely, quietly.
The sound disappeared under the shadows of the moonlit forest.
"Be more open."
The guilt of being reunited made the mood seem to become a little happier. He comforted the black cat in a good voice and reminded him at the same time: "...you only used a golden bean to buy Mammon's neutrality assessment.
, as far as I know, this is the best deal for any criminal. In addition, they are indeed devils... Those cute animal masks just hide their true appearance. Devils are not philanthropists... they will not be calm easily.
, I will communicate with you fairly and reasonably... If you think that everyone is a character that can be easily dealt with like Samael, you are totally wrong!"
Samael is the 'wrathful' sin wearing a wolf-head mask. His test was a battle. At that time, the black cat only spit out half a cat jade, and the guy turned around and left. It was indeed the easiest test that the black cat had ever experienced.
Already.
"What about the sinner?"
Black Cat suddenly remembered the 'position' he was preparing for, and immediately complained: "Arrogance, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, five of the seven deadly sins have been passed. At least you should let me know what the position I am taking the exam for is...
…We are a serious cat and don’t want to be a devil.”
When this masked guy first showed up to recruit Black Cat, he was very secretive in his words, and it was difficult to explain the responsibilities of the sinner. Even now, Black Cat's patience has almost reached a certain point.
The masked wizard obviously knew this too.
"It's shameful, it's shameful, why it's worth it... How can you endure their sins?"
He walked around the small barrier, carefully thinking about his words, and said in a very slow voice: "As I said before, the only intersection between this position and the devil is to stay in the same place with them.
In the conference room... we are impartial adjudicators and objective supervisors. We convene community meetings, balance internal transactions, collect requests from devils, and then communicate with other forces... You will not become a devil, but you have a chance.
Observe the devil. It’s a rare experience.”
This answer is quite satisfactory. Although it satisfies the cat's curiosity to a certain extent, it does not completely satisfy it.
Maybe he noticed the black cat's mentality at this moment.
"Observation is a very good word," he suddenly chuckled, changing his words: "It is also a very subtle identity. In this name, you can maintain a certain detached attitude and wander between light and shadow.
Between...the seven deadly sins are one of the deepest shadows."
As he spoke, the sinner had already lifted the soundproof barrier. After giving a slight salute to the black cat, he retreated out of the moonlight and into the shadow of the trees, his figure gradually dimming.
"I doubt it." The black cat stared at his disappearing figure, flicked its tail, and muttered in a low voice.
Considering the previous contact with several members of the Seven Deadly Sins - Mr. Arrogant is cold and good at mental PUA, the angry young man is quick to intimidate faster than anyone else, the lazy classmate wants to find someone to do his homework for him, and the greedy fox lends usury to his companions -
Of all the people, it seems that only Miss Jealousy prepared the assessment items seriously.
Just a simple comparison with the friends who forgive sins will show how unreliable this society is.
Black Cat felt that he had placed too many expectations on this small organization.
…
…
After leaving the black cat's sight, the wizard wearing a white mask passed through a hidden secret door under the wall of Jiuyou Academy. When he came out, his figure was split into two, with one figure going to the left and the other to the right.
After the two figures passed through different secret doors, they split again, transformed into four, and headed in four different directions.
In this way, his figure continued to enter secret passages located in different corners of the school. Some figures took off their masks after several times of 'desensitization' and greeted the school guards who patrolled at night with a smile;
Wearing a mask, he walked down the stairs and returned to the office of the Seven Deadly Sins; another figure quietly passed through the fence set up by the school's protective circle, crossed the Silent River, and disappeared into the dark forest at night.
Of course, after passing through a certain secret passage, more figures quietly turned into a wisp of light and dissipated under the moonlight.
The figure entering the silent forest skillfully identified the direction in the dark and silent world, and soon came to a half-dead old locust tree.
The old locust tree seemed to have been struck by thunder. One side of the tree was scorched black, and the other side was lush and lush. Between the two, there was a long and narrow crack, like a half-open eye. The width was less than fifty centimeters, and there were more than ten narrow places.
centimeters.
The wizard wearing a white mask paused for a moment in front of the crack, then stepped in without hesitation. The place he landed was not a crack in the old locust tree, but a winding staircase leading underground.
Both sides of the stairs are surrounded by rough textures belonging to trees. There is no light between the stairs, it is dark and quiet, making people feel like they are stepping into the abyss with every step.
When he walked down the stairs, the pure white mask on his face had disappeared and was replaced by a dark crow mask.
There is a small number on the corner of the mask.
zero three.
Below the stairs is a long corridor. There are closed doors on both sides of the corridor. There are no windows on the doors, but they are marked with different numbers.
As he passed several doors with light footsteps, violent collisions and crazy howls suddenly came from behind the doors.
Crow No. 3 did not squint, and his steps were not affected in any way.
At the end of the corridor was a huge iron door that was half closed. When he walked to the door, Crow No. 3 finally couldn't help it, shook his head slightly, raised his hand and cast a 'preparatory door'.
The iron door slammed shut behind him.
Behind the door is an empty hall. In the brightest spot in the center of the hall is a huge test bench. Dozens of figures in black robes and crow masks are busy beside the test bench.
Hearing the closing sound, one of the crows turned around.
"Well done!"
He praised with a slightly gloating voice: "You locked the professor out... The professor just went out to get something... less than three minutes."
Crow No. 3 touched its long beak, turned around, and quickly threw an opening spell:
"Under Hengmen, the doors and windows are defenseless!"
boom!
The iron door was pushed open with great force.
A professor with high cheekbones and gray hair held a stack of materials and kicked in the door. Unlike the other crows, he did not wear a mask.
