According to convention, the examiners invited to the exorcism test are official organization personnel outside the church, and they try to invite people who are at the first level of profound understanding. At this time, in addition to Chief Inspector Owen, there is also a literary master from the Western Continent who is given an honorary position and a mentor from the Guidance School.

According to the results of the draw of 12 candidates, the three examiners will take turns to test 4 of them.

However, just now Tukwell gave Fanning a pre-warning and revealed some information about Owen's mysterious abilities.

He said that since Mr. Wax intervened in the background investigation, as long as he was willing, under the influence of his invisible power of "derivation", he would most likely draw Owen.

Because of this kind of card-drawing method, President McAdam, who passed through the "Gate of Coincidence", has similar interference capabilities, not to mention a higher-level and divine executive.

There are differences between different authorities. The saint's head-on confrontation strength is far superior to Mr. Wax, but he does not hold the authority in this field and cannot implement unnoticeable interference at this level.

Of course, when he first saw that the "Mass in B Minor" had replaced the original repertoire and was brilliant in the actual performance, Tucqueville first thought about it himself and secretly sent a messenger to the Pope on the stage, suggesting that Lavoisier's "exorcism test" be cancelled to avoid confronting Owen and exposing some possible risks to the public.

Anyway, judging from his performance in coming to Bicchi to arrest people, Lavoisier's high-ranking strength is only higher, and his reputation will naturally reach the top after the mass ceremony, so he won't even be unable to determine the position of a priest.

But the Pope considered it in the long term and more comprehensively.

"Exorcism test" is a church tradition.

Since it is important to promote a clergyman, it is necessary to try to avoid leaving omissions and flaws in every link of his resume.

Cancelling it at the last minute will be counterproductive and suspicious. Moreover, if a few people have doubts and spread them in the market after a long time, it will destroy perfection and reduce the sacredness, which is not worth it.

So, it's time to go up. With so many eyes watching, even if Mr. Wax manipulates the drawing of lots, Owen, a chief inspector, can't do anything to a knowledgeable person.

"Father Lavoisier has created this grand and glorious "Mass in B Minor", and I believe he will shine in the exorcism test."

Owen smiled and praised.

The other two examiners also nodded in approval, but their thoughts were not necessarily the same as the former.

Fanning seemed to be looking at Owen, but in fact his eyes were not on him, but he spoke to the Pope behind him:

"Your Majesty, the one who reveals the deep and hidden, knows what is in the dark, and the light also lives with him, there is no need to send me to perform exorcism, because now that the matter is done, it is the time when the spirituality is dazzling, and the sun and heat must not harm the guests."

Tukville said that "nine out of ten" Owen would be drawn, which means "one out of ten" would be drawn for the other two examiners.

It's better to give a tactful reminder. No one wants to hurt the harmony.

Before the Pope answered, Owen had already revealed a funny smile.

Good guy, it was the first time he saw a quasi-priest seriously reminding the Profound Ones to "be careful of getting hurt".

This matter is a bit outrageous.

"Mr. Lavoisier, don't worry." The Pope also said gently, "Just use the invisible power, just like you can freely use your creative inspiration."

"The Pope's words are supreme."

Fanning humbly obeyed the order and did not waste any more time. He steadily climbed the more than two-meter-high inclined triangular ladder for the spectators to see clearly and reached his hand into the polished topaz stone box.

His fingertips touched one hard card after another. After moving several times, he vaguely felt some kind of gathering, dispersing, chaotic and invisible fluctuations affecting his star body to make choices.

There was no coercion, but there was interference everywhere.

But after careful consideration, it seems that this is not the case. It is an illusion caused by Tucqueville's "preconceived" reminder.

Fanning did not further stimulate his spirituality to explore the truth.

He simply clamped a hard card and raised his wrist.

I don't know whether he should say "as expected" or say that the probability of 4/12 or 1/3 is "just right".

In short, the name painted on it with orange dye is really "Owen Davis".

"So it's Mr. Owen, there's no need to worry about this." Fanning's face showed a kind expression of "just right".

"Those who talk a lot about 'all' will be troubled by fatigue and disputes, and later they will be bathed in the sun and rest in peace."

This matter is indeed quite outrageous. Hearing this, Owen's expression changed from funny to playful.

At the moment, he was too lazy to repeat the mistake of "dizzy head" to analyze and guess whether Lavoisier was saying something with a hidden meaning, secretly provoking, or just preaching habit.

Anyway, it's just a matter of one or two minutes.

In fact, Mr. La has just announced that the background check result is passed. This exorcism test in public, Miss Luo Yin is also watching below. He bullies the subordinates of the discussion group members too much, so it's meaningless.

However, Lavoisier has become the focus of the Special Patrol Office. Once they fight, they can always force him to show some information that may not be obtained on weekdays.

The rules for the combat restrictions of the exorcism test are very simple. In order to maintain a certain degree of "comparability", the examiner cannot use the secret art of riding a chariot to descend into the chariot. In addition, there are no restrictions on the ritual vessels, curses and echoes used by both sides. However, according to the actual convention, the examiners themselves will not bring out the echoes. Only the prospective priests will enter the dream in advance to make full preparations.

For the profound, if they do not descend into the chariot, their strength will only be about 20%, and the ritual vessels and curses of high-level cannot be effectively activated. However, the changes in the essence of spirituality alone are enough to occupy an absolute advantage when facing high-level ones.

Others also drew lots one after another. Judging from their expressions, those who drew Owen's name were indeed more nervous.

Facing an examiner from the Special Patrol Office, the psychological pressure must be greater.

Fanning was the first to step into the central area of ​​the Holy Ritual Platform.

"It is inevitable that the examiners will consume their spiritual energy after fighting continuously, and the first one will face greater pressure."

"But Father Lavoisier is the first candidate, so he has to stand in front. I wonder if he can meet the excellent standard of persisting for 100 seconds."

"With his skills, he must perform the best among the candidates. He just wants to show this one for the sake of perfection."

The spectators below thought to themselves.

The square was in an uneasy silence. The others retreated to the edge of the altar. The four spiritual walls closed into a rectangle with the cooperation of external clergy.

The original meaning of the exorcism test is to deliberately arrange opponents of a completely higher level for the prospective priests, to metaphorically test whether they can "be firm in their faith and bravely exorcise demons when encountering powerful demons."

The comprehensive performance of the prospective priests in the face of the examiners and the time they persist in not being expelled from the spiritual wall will be used as one of the references for whether they will be appointed.

Therefore, Owen followed the custom of the local customs and put on a scarlet robe with claws and teeth to show that he was playing the role of "devil".

Everyone saw him raise an old-fashioned dark yellow-green short-barreled gun in his hand towards Fanning.
