Chapter 166 Assessment
"Put the money in the alchemy array..."
Jilan was startled.
He came to his senses, immediately took out his wallet from his alchemy leather pocket, took out 6 "100" large denomination Golden Caesars, stacked them neatly, and placed them in the center of the golden alchemy array on the wooden floor.
Next second.
His pupils shrank.
Whoosh!
With a flash of golden light, the stack of banknotes disappeared instantly!
There was another swish sound, and four fist-sized silver cubes suddenly appeared where the banknotes were originally located!
It’s a mercury battery!
‘Teleporting objects over long distances? ! ’
Gilan was surprised.
He glanced at the "Alchemy Hotline" in his hand and instantly understood its value... This is simply a treasure!
With it, not only can I communicate secretly with the Esoteric Cult "Midnight Rose", but I can also complete transactions through the air!
It is both hidden and safe.
"Have you received the stuff?"
At this time, Sage Bai's magnetic voice came from the microphone.
"Received." Jilan picked up the phone and replied close to her ear.
"Then, happy transaction, young man."
White Sage's chuckle came clearly from the microphone.
"Happy transaction." Ji Lan hummed.
He thought for a while, he still needed mysterious materials urgently.
According to what the other party said, he is not qualified to purchase the main material of "Wick Magic Potion". Only by joining "Midnight Rose" and becoming "one of his own" can he enjoy this internal benefit.
So, Jilan asked tentatively:
"Mr. White Sage, can I join you?"
"No."
The other party said slowly.
Jilan’s heart sank.
But the White Sage changed the subject again:
“But it’s only theoretically impossible. Over the years, ‘Midnight Rose’ has followed a secret invitation system, but the number of official members has remained the same. Continuously decreasing.”
"Sabotey Louis is a good example. We official members are all antiques who have lived for hundreds of years. Even if our life span is a little longer than ordinary people, we will die sooner or later."
“But the requirements and threshold for joining ‘Midnight Rose’ are too harsh, shutting out many talented people. Without fresh blood, it will wither if it continues like this.”
“ It’s 1926 in the blink of an eye, and it’s time for a change.”
Perhaps Gilan’s question aroused the long-standing worries of Sage Bai, causing him to speak a lot with emotion.
Gilan listened silently, paused for a moment on the other end of the phone, and asked:
"Young man, are you a 'Kuusei'?"
Kuusei...
Only by climbing to level 4 or above on the Path of the Fire Sword can one be called a "Kuusei".
"No." Jilan took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"Yeah." White Sage groaned. "If we go by previous standards, this threshold would be enough to prevent you from joining 'Midnight Rose'."
"Our official members are all long-timers."
Hearing this, Jilan couldn't help but breathe.
Is Kusei the lowest threshold?
No wonder the White Sage would say that the identities of the internal members are mysterious and their strength is unpredictable.
The foundation of this ancient secret sect "Midnight Rose" is really profound and terrifying.
"Then you should have entered the 'Path of the Fire Sword', right?"
The White Sage asked with some uncertainty.
"Yes." Jilan said with a sigh of relief. When the other party asks questions, it proves that there is still a chance. "I have entered the 'Path of the Fire Sword' and am now a Level 1 'Kingdom' Mystic."
"Well, at least I have entered the door, not too bad."
The White Sage sighed. "It's good luck that you can get Shabotai's inheritance. It's even better luck that you can call Midnight Rose through the 'hotline' and it happens to be answered by me."
"The current leader of the Esoteric Cult, 'Mei Weng' once said: 'One is the whole, and the whole is one.'"
"There are laws in all things in nature. This may not be just you. Personal good luck is also the beginning of our fate."
"Young man, I will make the decision and give you a chance."
Hearing this, Ji Lan's heartbeat quickened.
Soon, I heard White Sage say again:
"You need to complete an assessment to prove your talent and value. If you pass, you will be eligible to join the 'Midnight Rose' and become our reserve force." Thorns."
"The gate of truth is full of roses."
"I hope you can become the first member of the Thorns."
Jilan calmed down and knew that what was before him at this moment might be a rare opportunity to get in touch with the deeper mysterious realm hidden in this other world.
He exhaled and said:
"Mr. Bai Xian, please tell me."
"Where are you now?" Bai Xian asked. He added: "There is no intention to explore, but I have to arrange the corresponding assessment content for you according to the area where you are."
Jilan thought for a while and replied:
< br>"Capital of the Empire, Museciti."
"The capital..."
After a while of thought, the other end of the phone said:
"Next month, that is, August 5th, the North Muse 'Silver Lizard Club' will To hold the annual Young Rod Master Competition, I need you to personally participate in this event and win the championship."
"The boss behind the 'Silver Lizard' is Loben Fasol. Viscount. And his true identity is actually a key member of the 'Tian Ni Cult', with a 'grey scar', and his strength far exceeds that of the master."
"The young man who wins the championship in the stick skill competition every year. They will all be invited by Viscount Robben to attend his private dinner.”
"On the surface, this is a celebration, with circles, honors and opportunities to make friends as rewards, but this dinner is not simple. Because the guests present are all Heavenly Evil believers, they will take this opportunity to use their talents in staff magic Many young people joined the cult and added blood."
Gilan was quite surprised when he heard the story coming from the phone.
He did not expect that the owner of the Silver Lizard Club would have such a secret identity as a cult cadre.
They even openly used the staff competition to select talent seeds and then incorporate them into the cult.
You don’t need to guess to know that Viscount Loben’s method of attracting people must be coercive and evil. Young people who are champions of stick skills would never have imagined that what awaits him is not a bright future, but a nightmare that they can never get rid of.
"So you want me to take advantage of the competition to approach Viscount Luoben as a 'champion'?"
Gilan asked in a deep voice.
"That's right." On the other end of the phone, Sage Bai said calmly. "I need you to remember the information of those members and obtain key evidence at his private dinner."
Hearing this, Gilan was thoughtful.
Due to its original intention and members’ ideals, “Midnight Rose”’s stance should be more neutral.
At the same time, they never want the original order to be destroyed. Because this would lead to many variables, this group of ancient alchemists would not be able to study knowledge and truth with peace of mind.
As for the "Tian Ni Cult", as the secret sect of the old gods, its various evil activities will inevitably disrupt order and make everything tend to chaos and killing.
"Midnight Rose" has legitimate motives for hating them.
After thinking about this clearly, Gilan nodded.
I asked Sage Bai another worrying question:
"Excuse me...can I kill people?"
"Huh?" The other end of the phone was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he said: "If you are sure, you can. However, although we have the ability to do it for you Keep it in mind, but please act within your capabilities. Their strength is not weak, so don’t take it lightly.”
“Thank you for reminding me, I will pay attention.”
Jilan received a positive reply. tone.
If he needs to pretend to approach with restraint, then it may be really difficult for him to do it. But if he could kill, some things would be much easier for him.
"To make things easier for you, I will provide you with a certificate of identity as an official member of the empire. Please tell me your name, young man."
Gilan hesitated for a moment, but still gave his name. :
"Jilan Ilos."
"Think of another code name. If you can pass the assessment, you will join the 'Midnight Rose' with this code name and become a member of the 'Thorns' Member."
Jilan thought for a while, with deep eyes, and said:
"Blood Owl."
