Everyone's eyes turned over, and they all showed expressions of envy, jealousy, etc. Dulan sighed in his heart, and was just about to stand up, but who knew that a surprise cry suddenly came from beside him:
"Is it really me? Am I the chosen one?"
"This is great, incredible! One day I, Brand, can also perform on stage? Oh, Jenny, this must be your credit. Next time I will never tell others that you are a fat woman...
…”
The noisy middle-aged man jumped happily, walked out of his seat happily and walked to the stage under the envious eyes of everyone.
Dulan was stunned. Could it be that his nerves were too sensitive?
However, he was still happy to see this situation. Not having to go on stage at least meant that he would not be exposed to everyone's eyes, so he breathed a long sigh of relief. At this moment, he found that the clown's gaze was still lingering.
On his side - he stayed there for more than half a minute. It wasn't until the clumsy Brad climbed onto the stage that Sonny turned to greet Brand.
"What is this guy's background? Or, does he want to hint at me?" Dulan pressed his forehead with a headache. This mission was so weird. There wasn't even a hint. It seemed impossible to rely on his own imagination.
Guess what will happen next. On the stage, with Sonny's help, Brad took off his shirt.
This show is a magic show. The shirtless man roughly pulled aside the canvas covering the wooden table, revealing a terrifying guillotine.
He pulled the guillotine away, and a cold light suddenly flashed across the faces of everyone in the theater. The sharp blade made people feel scared just looking at it. The audience was silent, but Brad still looked excited and eager to try.
He didn't seem to notice any danger at all.
"Isn't this a guillotine?" Duran thought with some uneasiness. At this time, all the lights were extinguished, and the audience held their breath. The lights shone on the stage, and Sonny the Clown was performing hilariously.
, while cooperating with the big man to press Brad's head under the guillotine.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what you are about to witness next will be incredible - very, very unbelievable... This is the greatest magic trick in the world!" Sonny exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Please open your eyes wide.
!”
Under Sonny's instigation, the atmosphere gradually reached a climax. The audience in the front row stood up one after another, and everyone stared at the stage intently.
"Maybe this will be an opportunity!" Dulan thought. He didn't come here to watch a performance. While everyone's eyes are focused on the stage, why don't he do something? Maybe search this theater carefully.
would be a good choice.
So he softly recited a spell and entered the stealth state silently. Duran slowly left his position while sneaking, and he walked around several figures who looked like circus workers.
Quietly walked from the corridor on one side to the backstage of the stage.
The architectural structure of the theater is not complicated. Although the lighting is not bright, Duran is eager for it. In almost complete darkness, his stealth effect is almost as good as that of shadow creatures. Duran walked carefully in the corridor,
There were roars from the auditorium nearby.
However, in an instant, I don't know what happened, and the whistling stopped suddenly.
Out of curiosity, Duran couldn't help but lean on the door between the corridor and the auditorium, gently opened a corner of the curtain, and looked up at the stage - a creepy scene appeared, and Sonny smiled.
Pointing at Brad, whose head was bouncing on the floor of the stage, the sharp guillotine slashed him in half!
"This is clearly murder! What kind of magic is this!" Dulan was shocked in his heart. The scene in front of him was extremely weird and terrifying. The shirtless man held a guillotine in his hand and said nothing. Sonny was still smiling, and Brad's
The back half of his body was leaning on the wooden table, his head was rolling on the ground laboriously, and his mouth opened and closed: "Huh? Did the performance succeed? Why can't I see anything clearly?"
"Damn it, where did my body go? My body..."
A large amount of blood poured out from the headless corpse, and the guillotine was scarlet. The auditorium erupted into screams, and countless people yelled. They looked at what was happening in front of them in horror. Most of the people were still in a state of shock.
, while others reacted quickly, with some shouting: "This is not magic, this is murder!"
"That guy is dead! His head was chopped off! Oh my God!" The audience talked a lot, some people even cried, and more people fled in panic, rushing out of the theater as if they had seen a ghost.
Duran leaned against the door of the corridor, resisting the urge to run away. His heart was beating fast because he had a premonition that something was about to happen - Brad's head bounced twice and stopped moving. The clown
He walked to the front desk, smiled slightly, and shouted to everyone: "Don't worry, this is not murder, this is just a magic trick."
"I don't believe it, he is already dead!" Someone replied, this was a pale-faced young man. And more people chose to remain silent.
Du Lan closed the curtain and walked quickly to the backstage of the stage - he had seen clearly what happened, and he already had a guess in his heart, but he just needed something to verify it.
"You're so pretentious that I almost thought it was true." Dulan curled his lips inwardly. The clown's explanation came from the other side of the corridor. After a while, the audience stopped making noise and seemed to have accepted the clown's words.
"Hey guys, this is just a magic trick. Don't waste your time for this little thing. Let the show continue?!" the clown said incitingly.
There was a response from the audience: "Let the show go on!"
"Let the show go on!"
…
The previous incident was quickly suppressed, and the wonderful performance went on again - Duran no longer had any interest in all this, because he knew that this might not be a fantasy, but at most it was just a memory. At this time, he said
Holding half a green apple in his mouth, his will attribute was greatly strengthened. While walking in the corridor, Dulan casually glanced into the theater, and the result was clear at a glance.
All the audience disappeared, the seats were empty, and Brad, the shirtless man and all the actors on the stage disappeared, leaving only Sonny the clown performing vigorously.
No matter who cast this illusion, its level must be very high, and it can actually overwhelm the resistance of the platycodon flower badge - which means that this illusion is roughly equivalent to the effect of a fourth-level spell or above. Fortunately, Duran
With the green apple given by the Supreme Council, this magical item from the Barrow plane can greatly enhance Duran's will, allowing him to see everything in front of him clearly.
"Everyone is illusory, only Sonny the Clown is real." Dulan has determined in his heart that this scene may be half-truth and half-false - but in any case, Duran must verify his idea first.
He quietly walked around the backstage of the stage. It was pitch dark here and he couldn't see his fingers. Compared to the wide front stage, it seemed quite small. The suet candle was lit by Duran - he would not be stingy with props at this time, because he accepted
The task we arrived was to clean up the Circus of Despair. The whole theater was so big. There was only Sonny the Clown at the front desk, so the rest of the characters must be concentrated in the backstage. Although I don’t know what the goals of these tasks are, but these guys must be
It is a resentful spirit that has been dead for who knows how many years. Dulan must be careful.
Thirty minutes of light and safety were enough for him to do a lot of things. The dim light illuminated a corner of the house. The place Dulan walked into seemed to be a dressing room, with several mirrors placed messily around it. Dulan
After counting for a while, there were six mirrors in total - these mirrors were about the same height as a person, which should make it easier for the actors to see their whole bodies clearly. However, Dulan felt a little strange. The six mirrors were arranged in a circle.
, forming a small hexagon in the dressing room.
The candle was placed in the northeast corner by Duran. He lowered his head and pulled out some information from the dressing room counter and flipped through it quickly. At present, except for the four words "Desperate Circus", he had no information about the mission target.
You know, this situation is not very good.
Most of the documents in the dressing room were old and old. Dulan placed them carefully, but he still couldn't avoid a lot of dust on him. Some documents were written with poor quality ink, and the handwriting was blurry - especially an account book, the person who kept the accounts.
The handwriting was extremely illegible. Dulan, who was not very proficient in the Jinder language, only took one look at it and threw it away because he couldn't understand it at all.
The cheers from the front desk could still be heard in the dressing room. Dulan, who had taken the green apple, knew that these were all false. The performance would not last long. Once it was over, the goals of this mission should all appear. Then the real test would be
On your own time.
His movements were fast, and his visual inspection skills and contract assistance system greatly improved Duran's efficiency in searching for information. Soon, he found two more important documents - half of them recorded major events in the circus, and the other
One is a roster of the main tasks of the circus.
Duran opened the roster, and there were only six names written on the first page, as follows:
【Team Leader Brad】
【Animal Tamer Amiya】
【Acrobat Cassel】
【Acrobat Renee】
【Logistics Jenny】
【Sunny the Clown】
…
Du Lan narrowed his eyes slightly: "A clown's name is actually recorded on the first page together with other important figures in the circus? Isn't this too weird?"
