Volume 3 Obsidian Chapter 140: Browsing the Forum
"Mr. Jack, is there anything you need that brings you to see me so late?"
Noah made two cups of coffee, handed one over, and asked curiously.
"Can you show me your... this weird thing, Noah?"
Chen Lun took the coffee and stopped worrying about the painting. He pointed at the bone key on Noah's neck.
"Oh, of course."
Noah readily agreed, put down the coffee cup, and took the key.
He held the black rope sparkling with starlight in his big hand and handed the bone key to Chen Lun.
"Thanks."
Chen Lun took a sip of coffee, smiled slightly, and reached out to take it.
His fingers touched lightly on the bone key.
At that moment, I could clearly feel it squirming and a hint of panic.
[A-level weird things - Bone Gallery]
Item description: A powerful object that contains the power of flesh and blood. It looks like a long bone key with exquisite black patterns all over it, which can change at will without warning.
It seems to have originated from a certain archbishop of the church, and the spirituality and characteristics extracted from it made this object a success.
Every mystery is a sin, and every sin is a masterpiece.
Item Effects: 1. Bloody Portrait. You can plunder the target's spirituality and characteristics, and store them in the oil painting. The extraordinary power effect will be weakened. Warning: The plundering process takes a certain amount of time.
2. Solitary Copying. You can copy the target's extraordinary power and store it in the oil painting. The extraordinary power effect is weak and has a time limit. Warning: The copying process takes a certain amount of time.
3. Grand Exhibition. The more paintings in the gallery, the stronger the effect. The number of extraordinary paintings cannot exceed seven, while the number of ordinary spiritual paintings is unlimited.
4. It is not known yet.
Item cost: Each use will consume a lot of physical strength, reason and creative inspiration. New paintings need to be added every once in a while and old paintings need to be exhibited. Warning: The paintings must be approved by the gallery.
"What a powerful monster...!"
Chen Lun said secretly.
Spirituality, as the most important part of every person, is the source of rationality and the cornerstone that supports the existence of extraordinary characteristics in the body.
The ability to capture spiritual power is a very advanced and extraordinary means.
"This is the remains of a saint from the Flesh and Blood Faction. It contains high-sequence extraordinary characteristics. It is most likely a Sequence 4 Sin Eater..."
Chen Lun had a thoughtful look on his face.
"It seems that there is room for improvement in the second effect of [Bone Gallery]. "
Once the circus members' levels go up a bit, perhaps Noah can copy their abilities, or even some of Chen Lun's own abilities, leaving behind this "low-profile version of an extraordinary painting (limited time offer)".
In this way, the circus has one more signature specialty.
'I am such a philanthropist!'
Chen Lun sighed.
'I have figured out another way to help the players.'
Then he thought of something and felt confused.
When the group of players in the previous life were beaten by Noah, it was probably because the [Bone Gallery] captured their spirituality and characteristics, causing them to lose their extraordinary powers for a period of time.
But why weren't they "permanently sealed" and became ordinary people from then on?
If we only talk about the game mechanics, this is indeed reasonable, otherwise players would not play. But now according to the information description of [Bone Gallery], this is obviously contradictory.
Is it because the players have the ability to resurrect, and the refreshed bodies after rebirth pull back the spirituality and characteristics imprisoned in the paintings? Or is it because what the [Bone Gallery] captures are not the players' true spirituality and characteristics?
Chen Lun couldn't figure it out, but he kept the question in his heart.
"Noah, have you adapted to this weird thing?"
He handed the bone key back to Noah and asked with a smile.
Noah nodded vigorously, with respect and joy on his face.
"Mother once said that this year would be my lucky year and she would prepare a gift for me...but I didn't expect that this gift would be so valuable."
He put the bone key back on and held it gently against his chest.
The latter squirmed gently in his hand like a white worm.
“It loves art and is very critical of my paintings, but I think it is a very good friend. Although it always criticizes my works, it will also point out my flaws, which I learn a lot from.”
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
It seems that Noah is indeed very compatible with the [Bone Gallery], just like Floy and the [Back to the Sun Pot]. Only this kind of deep bond can bring out the maximum power of the weirdness.
Perhaps in the future, these two [A-level monsters] can be developed into more powerful means in their hands.
"Noah, I have a request."
Chen Lun put down his coffee cup and said seriously.
Noah was surprised to see this, but he immediately replied:
"Mr. Jack, what is this?"
“I want a painting from the [Bone Gallery].”
Chen Lun said.
"Oh, of course."
Noah said this and waved his hand. A shadow of a gallery appeared in front of him, with six extraordinary paintings lined up in a row.
"Mr. Jack, please take your pick."
"Thank you, Noah."
Chen Lun smiled and let out a long sigh.
"I need Perry's portrait, The Unyielding."
…
…
…
The next day.
After breakfast, Chen Lun stopped Floy who was about to go upstairs.
She was a little confused, but still walked over and sat down on the sofa next to Chen Lun.
Then she raised her head and "looked" at him quietly.
"Floy, you can start devouring now."
Chen Lun took out the painting from the Blood Poetry Ring and handed it to Floy.
Floy stretched out her hand and gently brushed it across the frame.
"Um!"
She nodded slightly and then smiled.
Several dark purple vines emerged from the white palms, tightly wrapping the painting in her arms. Then, a faint golden light escaped from the gaps in the vines, but was soon completely covered up.
Floy slowly leaned back on the sofa, her head slightly tilted towards Chen Lun, as if she was asleep, her light golden hair spread out.
Chen Lun admired her beauty silently, then leaned back and sank into the sofa, lying like Uncle Ge.
"Floy may need some time..."
He thought to himself and clicked on the built-in game forum page on the panel.
"Good fellow..."
As soon as I clicked on it, the pinned video was a video titled "The Mysterious Era Pilot".
The cover of the video is Chen Lun himself.
He wore a black hat that covered his eyes, revealing only his slightly curly black hair and a smile. He was leaning forward in a black dress, with his hands crossed and a silver cane casually resting beside his leg.
"He's quite handsome. Who is this guy?"
Chen Lun shook his head.
He glanced at the poster and saw the expected familiar ID, Su Keying.
Chen Lun did not rush to click on the video, but first browsed the other content of the forum, intending to understand the progress of these beta test players.
There are about a thousand pages of posts in total, with fifty posts on each page, which means there are about 50,000 to 60,000 posts.
These posts are still increasing and the popularity is gradually rising.
Chen Lun clicked on the popularity sorting and roughly got some clues from the titles of the posts.
He discovered that the birthplaces of most players were within the territory of the Trisur Empire. Only a small number of players were assigned to the three affiliated kingdoms and the surrounding small countries.
There are very few posts about extraordinary clues, and they do not exceed one page in total.
Among these lucky ones, only two successfully stepped into the mysterious realm and became extraordinary people.
One of them has the ID "Gan Ziwen", a member of "Shi Zhi Ming", one of the three major guilds.
Another person’s ID is “蜜汁傻包”, and he is a member of a guild called “初曦”.
"It turns out that these two people have already become extraordinary people during the internal test..."
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
He had some impression of these two people. Gan Ziwen was one of his old customers. He often patronized his photo album business. He was generous and had strong personal strength.
Honey Fool is a meritorious figure who led the "Little Wild Chrysanthemum" guild to prosperity.
The three major guilds are well-known, the "Heroic Pavilion" where the Centaur is located, the "Divine Love" where Dog-Headed Gold and Forgotten Wuji are located, and the "Lost Name" where Gan Ziwen is located.
In his previous life, these were all big teams that Chen Lun had to look up to, and he dared not offend them easily.
The "Chuxi" guild was a tier below the three major guilds, and was considered first-rate. As far as Chen Lun knew, they only recruited female players, and they also had a subordinate guild called "Xiao Yeju".
I heard that "Xiao Ye Ju" was founded by Mi Juicy Han Bao, with the purpose of helping new players. Many masters who came up later received help in the early stage of the game, so the reputation and reputation of these two guilds are quite good.
What surprised Chen Lun was that Gan Ziwen and Honey Dumb were both born in the same area, Fossil City. The first metropolises they visited were Phosphorus City and Pyrite City, which were not too far from Amber City where they were.
"What a coincidence! It looks like things will get very lively after the public beta test..."
Chen Lun thought to himself.
Among tens of thousands of internal test players, it was extremely lucky that two of them achieved extraordinary results in just two weeks. Of course, these two players must have had some outstanding qualities, otherwise they would not have stood out.
"I will find a way to contact them and make them a part of my 'Elite Plan'..."
He thought to himself and gently clicked on the pinned video——
The pilot episode of the mysterious era, the first issue.
