While Lu Yizhan was about to wait for Cen Buming to calm down before having a peaceful chat with him, he heard Cen Buming apply to Fang Dian for a duel [fair decision].

When there are two or more people competing for a position or task, the [Cross Judges] will give the question and ten randomly selected members of the Board will serve as the [Jury] to complete the process to avoid cheating.

Whoever solves the puzzle first, gets the task or the job.

This is how the members of the Crusaders have been selected, so Fang Dian was quick to approve.

Lu Yizhan soon got his questions.

All you have to do is to take it in alone within half an hour, and whoever completes the process first will get a seat in the Crusade.

If there is an emergency, a member will come down and help the person who needs help, and the person will abstain.

Lu Yizhan's gaze sinks for a moment after he gets the question - the dried-leaf rose is nothing more than a heretic of the red danger class.

The test is obvious, it's a test of their familiarity with the heretic's weaknesses, their ability to adapt to the situation and perhaps ...... a certain psychological profile.

Cen Buming did not hesitate to submit his consent form the same day the exam questions were given.

The next day Lu Yizhan also submitted.

On the third day, the test began. The member of the Crusaders who came to observe the test as a safety officer was Yu Fu, a female member of the Crusaders who was in charge of medical accidents in the team, the team's healer, very good with scalpels and surgical threads, very sweet and gentle looking, with long shoulder-length hair, always wearing a close-fitting white coat and sometimes a nurse's uniform.

Lu Yizhan, who is not a big fan of this kind of thing, is the flower of the Heretics Authority and has a long queue of crushes on her.

Although Yu Fu always looks at everyone with a saintly, worried look, the first thing he says to someone is usually: why are you hurt again, come and let me take a look at you.

But the team members who are treated like this by her are usually shivering with spring in their step while excusing themselves and saying Mr. Yu, no need.

Yu Fu would smile gently and say, "I'm a doctor, isn't it my job to treat you?" and then drag the screaming team members who didn't want to go in by holding on to the floor.

After an intense treatment, the team member crawled out of Yu Fu's treatment room, cured but dying, and Yu Fu smilingly took off his blood-stained mask and surgical gown and waved to the team member to come back next time.

Yu Fu has a bizarre habit of not using anaesthesia when she treats people.

A Captain Fang, who wishes to remain anonymous, once asked Yu Fu why she didn't like the use of anaesthesia, which caused her so much pain every time she was treated.

Only pain, and only deep pain, will make one remember not to make the same mistake next time.

Pain is not fatal, but mistakes can be.

The person who came to release the heretics on the day of the trial was Fang Dian, and the venue for the release was the field practice base of the Heretics Directorate.

When Lu Yizhan was a trainee, he used to deal with all kinds of heretics released by the instructors to exercise them, as part of a field heresy training course for trainees of the Bureau of Heresy.

The heretics released at that time were less dangerous, the highest being orange, and the instructor who led them at that time was still Dong Chenglong.

But now everything has changed.

Lu Yizhan puts on his protective gear and secures his gun on his belt, he looks away to Cen Buming at the other end who is also dressed in protective gear.

Yu Fu came over and introduced them to their jury members, four from the third branch, three from the second branch, one from the first branch, and finally two trainees who looked to be only 15 or 16 years old.

The gentle smile on Yu Fu's face became a little helpless: " Team Fang stuffed them in on a whim, she said that the quality of this year's trainees was very good and they could get in touch with the battlefield earlier, so she chose two of them to come and watch the show, oh no, watch the battle."

"Sorry, I just made a slip of the tongue." Yu Fu covered her mouth and smiled softly, "You guys don't mind, do you?"

Lu Yizhan: "......"

Cen Buming: "......"

We actually don't mind too much, Team Yu.

Cen Buming, however, kept talking to the second team, one of whom was the one Lu Yizhan had seen visiting him in the ward earlier and telling him that the Crusaders had killed his alienated teammate.

The man tapped Cen Buming on the shoulder and said something to Cen Buming with a complicated expression.

When Lu Yizhan saw this scene, a flash of something strange passed through his heart.

...... normal Heresy Authority Team 2 members, would they use [Cross Judgment Army] to kill people like that?

The two trainees seemed to realise they were not very popular and both looked a little tense and confused, the slightly taller trainee was the first to step forward and introduce himself, " Tang Erda, sixteen years old, current ambition is second team, I want to kill all the heretics in the world that hurt people."

The other took a deep breath and also introduced himself, " Su Yang, sixteen years old, current ambition is the third team."

Lu Yizhan, a former member of the third team, smiled good-naturedly at Su Yang: "The third team is good to get into, come on, you can do it."

Su Yang let out a long sigh of relief and nodded coyly to Lu Yizhan, "Thank you, Brother."

It was Cen Buming who came back, clutching his chest, glancing sorrowfully at the trainee named Tang Erda and sneering, "The second team doesn't welcome over-ambitious fools who open their mouths and want to save the world."

I vaguely remember when Cen Buming volunteered for the same Lu Yizhan: "......"

Tang Erda raised her eyebrows and opened her mouth to talk back, but Yu Fu stopped her and she smiled at Lu Yizhan and Cen Buming: "That's enough pleasantries, let's go in."

Lu Yizhan and Cen Buming looked at each other and Cen Buming turned his face away coldly first and entered the training ground.

The field is full of artificial fog, both shrubs and low grasses, the whole view is not open at all, and there are cameras and broadcast speakers buried all over the field, constantly playing ear-splitting insects and birds, so that you cannot hear the sound of heretics approaching to scrape the grass, so to speak, blocking observation from both hearing and sight.

All you can rely on at this time is your familiarity with heretics and your own combat reflexes.

Lu Yizhan crouched down on the grass and lowered his head to sniff the mucus on a blade of grass, which had a distinctive fishy smell, a milky white mass of small, pitiful lumps that smelled like the mucus secreted by human eyes.

Bitter and slightly salty, much like the taste of tears.

There are over a hundred heretics with eyes, and about 32 heretics who shed tears.

With his features locked in, Lu Yizhan drew out a forked probe and began to discreetly tap the surrounding grass from below.

Excluding the 6 plant-like heresies growing from below, then the animal heresies are next.

Yu Fu, standing in the room watching the big screen, gave a slightly appreciative smile: "Very good knowledge of the theory and a very good detection procedure."

"But over here ......" Tang Erda looked slightly reluctantly at the monitor reflecting Cen Buming, "this one called Cen Buming seems to have found it. "

"How can it be so fast ......" Yu Fu turned his head to look over and then his face changed, " Cen Buming how can he use this?! Who gave this to him?!"

In Cen Buming's hand was a mirror about the size of his palm, and he was using the reflection to find somewhere where there was a piece of something wriggling and he was about to walk over to check it out.

And as you can see from the surveillance, the back of the mirror has a looming square cross in relief.

But Yu Fu knew that it was because Cen Buming had taken it backwards, and wondered what the person who gave it to him had said, that the mirror should be a reverse cross in relief on the front and back.

--This is Bai six's thing, called the Murphy Theorem Magic Mirror, which allows a man to see his worst fears.

Yu Fu did not hesitate to press the alarm bell: "Test aborted! Call the Commander of the Crusading Army!"

A hasty, panicked reply came over the contact with a jumble of currents, " Team Fang can't get through for now!"

"The Directorate is rioting! Something has caused all the heretics to flee at the same time! The Crusaders are urgently dealing with the incident, ask Team Yu to handle it themselves over there first!"

Yu Fu hung up her contact and closed her eyes, then opened them and swept a look of fear across the faces of the eight team members and two trainees behind her and ordered calmly, "I'll go into the training ground later to take in the heretics, so stay put and don't move easily, no matter what happens."

"And especially don't look in the mirror."

She put on her uniform and walked briskly towards the training ground, intercom in hand, " Cen Buming, face down put the mirror in your hand-"

Inside the training ground.

After all the loudspeakers around Cen Buming had turned into an ear-splitting tinkle of electricity and he could not hear the sound from the control room, Cen Buming gripped the mirror in his hand warily and looked at the heretic with his back to him, took two steps back, closed his eyes and hid himself in the grass.

With its tearing eyes, its ocular discharge and its massive solidity, Cen Buming judged what this heresy was almost as soon as he saw it.

Heresy 0573, Eyetun Food.

The whole body of this heretic is covered with eyeballs, forming the cause Buming, and as soon as any of its eyeballs sees your eyes, your orbits will be empty for a moment, while your eyeballs will appear in its body.

But this is not the most dangerous part of this heresy, the most dangerous part of this heresy is that the eye is not dead, the eye that was taken away by the [Eye Tuna] retains its neurological connection and physical awareness, which means that the eye still seems to be growing on your body and can still see what you see, and if the eye that belongs to you that is growing on the [Eye Tuna] is attacked, you will still feel pain. .

And if all the eyes on this [eye-tunnel food] see your eyes at the same time, then they will parasitize you in a flash.

No one knows what happens to the hosts after they have been parasitised, but the screams of agony from the last person parasitised are still in the Heretic Authority's sound files, Cen Buming, and it is said to be an unrelenting pain, with each host not living more than an hour before dying in extreme agony.

This heretical weakness is also obvious, and when you don't look it in the eye, it naturally can't detect you.

Cen Buming hid in the grass with his eyes tightly shut, he could feel the heretic wriggling closer to himself with a huge mass of limbs full of eyeballs, seemingly turning the tens of thousands of eyes on himself to find out where the eyeballs on his face were.

But it was clear that the other side had not found it and was ready to leave again.

Cen Buming's breathing slowly lightens and he prepares to step back, but suddenly, as if seeing something, the heretic darts closer to him again, Cen Buming's heart tightens, but soon he realises what the problem is -

The square cross mirror in his hand had somehow turned into a reverse cross, with the mirror facing [Eyeball Tun Food], and [Eyeball Tun Food] saw his reflection in the mirror and thought it was the eyeball running wild!

Cen Buming flung the mirror out of his hand at the first opportunity.

The moment the mirror was out of his hand, it flipped several times in the air and landed firmly on the ground, becoming a carved antique mirror the size of a dressing-glass, and where it had fallen, the figure of Lu Yizhan, running in the distance, was faintly visible in the direction it was facing.

By the time Lu Yizhan saw the mirror, which had bizarrely appeared out of place in the examination room, he was fully illuminated, even if he was keen enough to dodge it the next second.

Ripples and ripples appeared in the centre of the mercury surface of the mirror, spreading out in a circle in all directions, reflecting in the mirror a person who looked completely different from anyone else on the field.

Wearing leather boots that wrapped around his calves, the white shirt Lu Yizhan had seen that night underneath, and a black whip in his hand, he smiled as he stepped through the mirror into the training ground, and greeted Lu Yizhan with a smile, "Thank you for summoning me here with your fear."

Lu Yizhan's pupils fluttered as he quickly understood the purpose of the mirror.

This man used his fear and this mirror to get right to the inside of the Bureau of Heresy Processing!

A sharp silver scalpel flew from behind Bai six's diagonal, which Bai six dodged with a slight dip.

Bai six smiled back, "The metaphorical examiner is as good as ever at destroying my personal belongings."

Yu Fu also smiled gently and affectionately: " Mr Bai six is still so good at using dirty tricks."

"Now even the fear of our trainee team members is being exploited." Yu Fu's eyes were closed not looking at everything in the field, a smile clouding her face, "You've been setting this up since the time of Big Dragon's death?"

"If you say the current riots in the Heresy Handling Bureau and the fact that I've come to be a guest now." Bai six smiled the eight winds, "Indeed it is, Team Yu ."

"One game has to be closely linked to another to make it interesting, doesn't it?"

Yu Fu was calm for a long time before he spoke, "What game do you want to play with me?"

" The game between a quality player like Team Yu and me is going to be left for last." Bai six turned sideways as he smiled at Lu Yizhan and Cen Buming who were standing a short distance away, "Why don't you let your Crusaders' reserves try a game with me, the villainous big bad you've been targeting for a long time, first?"

"Let me, the big bad guy, pick it out myself-"

Bai six smiled, "Let's see who gets to play the next round of the game with me."

Yu Fu raises his hand and shoots another scalpel. Bai six smiles and raises his hand, and a wall of fluctuating water patterns is erected in front of him, engulfing the scalpel shot by Yu Fu and allowing Yu Fu to see the other side of the wall in a faintly visible way.

Bai six smiles and looks at Yu Fu behind the watery wall: "The best seat in the house for game viewing, Team Yu."

"Since you are new players, let's play something simple -" Bai six clapped his hands together and turned his head to Cen Buming and Lu Yizhan behind him, smiling softly. The game is called "Open your eyes when it's dark."

"The rules of the game are I count one, two, three, say it's dark and then whoever opens their eyes first wins."

"This game is played by you two novice players, along with the so-called heretic [0573], and I will have it and you both close all eyes and sit down face to face."

The scalpel that Yu Fu had just shot into the wall of water disappeared and now shot out from within the wall of water, passing right through Cen Buming's shoulder blade and pinning him to the ground.

Cen Buming couldn't control his anger and tried to open his eyes when Lu Yizhan's calm voice suddenly came to his ears, "We play with you."

"How does that count for us?"

Bai six's eyes swept over to Lu Yizhan, whose eyes were also closed at the moment, and the smile on his face became amused again, "It's simple, as long as one of you opens your eyes before the heretic [0573] the moment I say it's dark, you win."

"But it also means that one of you must lose one of your own eyes."

Bai six propped up his jaw as he pondered as if in thought, the smile on his face deepening, "It's certainly great that the player who lost both eyes won the game and protected another, but at the same time, that person will never be able to join the [Cross Judgement Army] again."

"- and even have to quit the Bureau of Heresy Processing for good and become a protected, worthless piece of ordinary crap."

Lu Yizhan and Cen Buming's breaths hitched.

"So-" Bai six said with a small smile, "the game is on, it's dark, time for bed, all eyeballs close please."

The eyeballs above seemed to be hypnotised by Bai six's words and closed one after the other.

"Now on the count of one, two, three, werewolves please open your eyes."

Cen Buming, pinned to the ground by the scalpel, opened his crimson eyes with little hesitation, but before he could see the [eyeball-tuned food], a man darted to his feet to block his path, right in front of the eyeball-filled monster.

Cen Buming's mind went blank and all he heard was a "buzzing kong" sound, like something being gouged out, and a steady stream of blood dripping from the left side of Lu Yizhan's face, seeping into the grass around him.

"Now that the game is over, do I win?" Lu Yizhan asked in a hoarse voice.

Bai six looked over at Lu Yizhan, who was in Cen Buming's way, and raised his eyebrows slightly as he smiled, "You win."

Lu Yizhan is breathing heavily, his right eye tightly closed and his left open, having been gouged out, leaving only broken blood vessels seeping out in a steady stream from the empty socket and dripping down his jaw.

"That was quite a warm up game." Bai six snapped his fingers and the wall of water ripples that stood between Yu Fu and him fell away as he turned to Yu Fu and said with a grin, "Now it's the official game, Team Yu ."

He snapped his fingers again and the ten members of the [Jury] who had been watching the battle from the communications room appeared in the training ground.

" Has Team Yu ever played Werewolf?" Bai six took a step towards the group, the smile on his face growing friendlier, "It's a game I really like."

"Now we're going to play a variant version of werewolf killing called [Open your eyes when it's dark], which has different rules again from the game we just played."

"Since Lu Yizhan and Cen Buming, two new players, have just cleared the first game, let them be the audience for now and let us play the rest of the game with just the twelve players."

Bai six looked up and he smiled, "There is one heretic among your twelve players, a God Zhang card, this God Zhang card is Team Yu and the rest of you are all villagers."

"You may choose to sacrifice yourselves and allow the heretic to parasitise you, successfully harbour the heretic and the game is over."

"- Or, you can choose to actively become werewolves and kill the God sign in the dark or slaughter all the villagers, the game ends after the slaughter of the sides."

The smile on Bai six's lips became misty: "Either way, you don't have to worry about the consequences, because the judge, that is me, will erase everyone's memory after dark, people won't remember killing people, neither will the rest of you, and you can still remain an innocent survivor of the game in the Heretic Authority. "

"- Or, after becoming a werewolf you can choose to leave with me, away from this dangerous Heretic Authority, and become the evil villain who is free and makes others feel dangerous."

"Bai six--!!!" Cen Buming braced his bruised shoulder and tried to stand up.

Bai six raised his hand gently without looking back, and the watery wall separated them, and he said with a soft smile, " - this is the wall that isolates all attacks, and the attacks of the heretics are also ineffective in the space behind the wall, so you can also look straight at the heretics 0573 from behind the wall. "

"Now stay well back as a spectator and watch it all."

Lu Yizhan felt himself being pulled downwards by something and sat down forcibly on the floor, looking up at the contents behind the watery wall, the blurring of which made everything unreal, and for a moment he felt in a trance like he was watching a small television audience.

It's ridiculous.

Tang Erda refused with a face full of anger, "Are you fucking shit? I'm not going to play this game with you!"

Yu Fu calmly ordered, "Trainee Tang Erda, match his game."

Tang Erda turned her head sharply at Yu Fu, finally clenching her back teeth and lowering her head in obedience, "...... Yes, Team Yu ."

Bai six smiled and said, "So the game begins, it's dark, all eyeballs close please."

The eyes of everyone, including heretic 0573, were closed.

Bai six's eyes swept over the three members of the second team whose hands were trembling, and he spoke with a smile, "Now, open the eyes of the wolves."

As Cen Buming watched in disbelief, the three second team members opened their eyes one after the other and hesitantly, slowly, stood up, gripped their guns behind their waists and hesitantly walked up to Yu Fu, raising them to point them at her.

Yu Fu's breath caught for a moment, then quickly calmed down, his voice soft to the point of inaudibility, but still clear and steady.

"...... Bai six, the riot at the Heresy Handling Bureau, did you turn the captain of the second detachment to get him to release all the heretics?"

"From before the Rose Factory, you turned the men of the second detachment, you deliberately had the men of the second detachment of one group go to the Rose Factory to investigate, lured Captain Dong Chenglong there, killed him there, and at the same time deliberately released Cen Buming and Lu Yizhan, by Lu Yizhan's fear of what you had planted in the Rose Factory Then through the magic mirror given to Cen Buming Murphy by the second team, you managed to get inside the Bureau of Heresy, didn't you?"

Cen Buming's breathing stops.

...... Yes, when the guys from Team 2 came to see him earlier, they gave him a mirror with a positive cross back carving, saying that it was a relic related to the [Positive Cross Judgement Army] left to him by Team Dong and could be used to check for heretics, and that they wanted him to make good use of it.

--Don't let Team Dong down for saving his life.

He never, ever thought that everything he had suffered for since the beginning was just a game made between this Bai six and the men of the second detachment, and that he was just an NPC in the game.

Bai six smiled and replied, "Yes, that's very clever Team Yu, but I followed the rules of the game with Team Fang and didn't force my way into the Heretic Authority."

"Not everyone is as committed to their ideals as the people in [the Crusaders], many just want to be ordinary."

"But ordinary people have so many desires that it is too easy to satisfy and betray them, and I am really incredulous at the extent to which you attach trust to them -"

"-evil and lust, after all, have a natural attraction for humans."

Bai six lowered his eyes to Yu Fu and whispered as if with a sigh, "-Wolves please kill."

The three second team members raised their guns high at Yu Fu, who opened her eyes before she was shot, and slashed at the closed-eyed heretic 0573 before Bai six could say [Violate the rules of the game, kill everyone].

Heretic 0573 opened all her eyes to look at Yu Fu, whose gentle smiling eyes hollowed out the moment she met Heretic 0573's. She fell to her knees, and her body, which had been so good that it had exploded, began to bulge and deform, and oddly shaped eyeballs continued to grow, and she still had that gentle, powerful smile on her face, and her tone was light and graceful: "I'm sorry.

"I'm going to go with God's brand of self-destruct."

The next second, Yu Fu was completely parasitized, her beautiful face completely transformed into a stack of eyeballs, Yu Fu's mind went blank, blood spilled from her mouth, and she was in a trance, remembering Fang Dian.

The big-hearted captain sat in front of her covered in bruises and asked her, Yu Fu, what's the most annoying way you can die?

Yu Fu smiled gently and said, "Of course it hurts, Captain.

Fang Dian, while having her face twisted and screwed up by Yu Fu's treatment, grimaced and gave her a thumbs up, showing eight teeth and smiling brightly, saying Yu Fu you only make people die of pain, how can you die of pain yourself!

--you are the healer of our team, and I will always protect you.

Yu Fu slowly closed her vacant eyes as she opened her mouth to say something, but in the end not a word came out before an eyeball grew violently in her throat.

She had always thought that it was the mistakes that were fatal.

So pain can be fatal.

Bai six clapped his hands together and he smiled at everyone, "That was quite a nice comeback."

"The God sign explodes itself and it saves everyone, as expected of a healer Team Yu."

"Even the traitors want to save down-" Bai six looked sideways at the three members of the second detachment whose expressions were blank, and he hooked his mouth, "- -not bad for the [Massive Cross Judgement Army] style."
