Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Chapter 508 "Scream"

On the third day, that is, the day before the private art exhibition, everyone from Yanlong University met to go hunting and camping in the mountains.

This kind of opportunity is actually quite rare for everyone in Yanlong University. After all, although there are many wild features on Yanlong Star, there are also many ferocious beasts there, and the strongest fighting power is not inferior to those with strong consciousness. A powerhouse who has reached 25% awakening and is ready to transform!
Legend has it that they are all degenerate bloodlines of starry sky behemoths.

Of course, leader-level behemoths of this level are often rare and protected species, and they can produce a variety of special and precious resources!

It is not an easy task to camp in such an environment!
The hunting and camping activities lasted until evening, and they ate a lot of strange things.

Everyone is not afraid of eating bad stomachs, firstly because they have strong consciousness and extraordinary physique; secondly, since this is a holiday manor, they are naturally prepared accordingly.

For example, those smart devices brought when camping can easily identify whether the animals they hunt are edible, which parts are delicious, etc.!
In fact, they originally planned to play until the evening and go back, but they received a temporary notice when they went out today. The owner of this place, the organizer of the private art exhibition, Mr. Edvard Munch, has come to Lapu Star and is planning to hold a show in the evening A small banquet for everyone in the holiday manor.

The guests can do whatever they want, since the owner of the place, Mr. Edward, has already prepared the dinner, they naturally have no reason not to attend.

After a fairly enjoyable hunting and camping, everyone returned to the manor to tidy up, and then led by the waiter to the hall dedicated to banquets in the holiday manor.

It wasn't too early for Lando and the others to come here. At this time, there were already many people chatting in twos and threes. The two sisters of Nalan seemed to see their acquaintances. After greeting them, they left first, and the others also dispersed.

Lando shrugged, went to the food and drink area alone, and began to taste the food. Although he had eaten a lot of wild game today, the food for the banquet was obviously more high-quality, and not only from the planet Lapu, but also from other planets. The specialty is delicious.

Lando's actions seemed to have attracted the attention of many people, but most of them just smiled and didn't care.

Not to mention some tall, rich and handsome people jumping out to complain about other country bumpkins.

Of course, Lando didn't care.

After a while, Ava and Terry came to Lando, and the latter asked suspiciously while eating, "Senior, didn't you go out to socialize with your acquaintances?"

Ava laughed and said, "I just went to say hello."

Taylor also smiled.

Lando felt warm in his heart, knowing that they should be afraid that he would be embarrassed alone, so he hurriedly greeted his acquaintances and came to find him.

"What are you talking about? You didn't call me?" Karen's gentle voice sounded.

Then the four looked at each other and smiled.

In the distance, Nalanxin happened to see this scene.

A delicate-looking girl in a purple princess dress looked at her curiously and asked, "What are you looking at, Xiaoxin?"

Nalanxin withdrew her gaze and said gently, "No, it's nothing."

The delicate girl smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to come too. I knew I would have gone to you a long time ago. Didn't you say that there is still something to do? Go ahead, don't worry about me, it doesn't matter if we talk later."

Nalan Xin shook her head with a smile and said, "It's all right."

The delicate girl's eyes lit up, she took Na Lanxin's hand and said, "Then you have to talk to me carefully, I heard that something happened to the Attenborough, it seems to be attacked by a large number of interstellar pirates! You just now Said that you came here on the Attenborough?! What's going on?"

"That ah..." Nalanxin showed lingering fear, and immediately entered the storytelling mode: "It was quite dangerous at that time..."

Although it was a banquet held by the owner Edward, this person only showed up in the middle of the banquet.

Edvard Munch was a middle-aged man with a gentle face, deep eye sockets, high nose bridge, deep-set eyes, and a well-trimmed mustache under his nose.

Although he always had a cheerful smile on his face, Lando could vaguely detect a trace of changeable sensibility in the depths of his heart. This kind of person's emotions are often easily affected by changes in the outside world. The saying is... the ability to empathize is extremely strong!
Simply born artist!
This is what Lando said about Edvard Munch.

After simply thanking all the guests for their visit, Edward invited a 30-year-old beautiful woman with a graceful temperament to dance the first dance.

After the dance is over, there will be a free session, and everyone present can invite their partners to dance at will.

Of course, the invitee can also decline.

Theoretically speaking, since you are here to attend the banquet, you need at least one dance.

After the dancing session started, both Ava and Terry looked a little eager to try.

In fact, as long as they have been together for so long, as long as they are not blind, they can almost tell that Ava and Taili are interested in the two sisters Nalanxin and Nalankui, but Lando doesn't know exactly who fell in love with whom.

Just when the pair of brothers and sisters cheered each other up and wanted to invite the person they liked to dance, Na Lanxin walked towards them slowly.

Could it be that? !

Ava's and Telly's heartbeats sped up a little.

then……

Na Lanxin brushed past the two, came to Lando, and stretched out a hand as an invitation.

Ava:! ! !
Terry:? ? ?
Karen: ...

Lando: (ΩДΩ)? !
This scene was beyond many people's expectations. The entire small mouth of the delicate girl in the distance became an 'O' shape.

Many people who were interested in Nalanxin or knew her were also very surprised, let alone Lando and others who were going through this scene.

Lando didn't make the beautiful senior wait too long. He first gave Ava and Taili an innocent look, and then directly took Nalanxin's hand.

"Sister, I can only dance a little bit." Lando whispered.

Nalanxin smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll teach you."

The relatively soothing music was played in the banquet hall, and there were only a few simple movements in this dance. Lando had watched Edvard Munch dance once before, and with his control over his own body, he learned it directly. up.

Holding senior sister Nalanxin's slender waist, Lando felt that it was quite interesting to feel all kinds of complicated sights from around.

After the song was over, before the two returned, Nalan Kui walked up to Lando and stretched out his hand. Nalan Xin seemed to have expected it, let go of Lando with a chuckle, and left on her own.

Awa:? ? ?
Terry:! ! !
Karen: ...

Lando: ￣へ￣
This scene once again shocked many people's jaws, but miraculously, the many hostile gazes that were originally focused on Lando first turned into blankness, and then it seemed that they had realized something and were no longer hostile.

This time the song was a little more cheerful, but luckily Lando couldn't be bothered.

He put his arms around Nalan Kui and smiled helplessly: "Senior sister, you two are not using me as a shield, are you?"

Nalankui blinked her big charming eyes, and said with a smile, "Guess!"

Another song ended, and everyone found a corner to sit down, but they didn't see Na Lanxin's figure.

Ava and Terry glanced at Lando from time to time, their eyes full of resentment, while Karen held back a smile.

Lando always ignored it.

Just when the few people were chatting and waiting for the banquet to end, Nalanxin walked over with a delicate girl and introduced to Lando: "This is my handkerchief acquaintance... Claire Cantu , Claire, this is my junior... Lando."

The others obviously knew Claire and greeted her directly.

In the following time, Lando noticed that the girl named Claire would sneak a glance at him from time to time, as if she was very interested in him, which made him very strange.

Soon, the banquet was over, and everyone went back to rest.

Opening day of private art exhibition, morning.

Everyone gathered at the agreed time and set off for the Cliff Castle together.

It can be clearly seen that the number of guests in the entire resort today is several times that of when Lando and the others came that day, and it seems very lively.

On the road leading to the cliff castle, there are already bustling climbers.

Lando and the others also joked and walked up slowly.

When we got close to the Cliff Castle, we realized that the building was much bigger than imagined!
After entering the castle, you can clearly feel that this place is from the hands of famous masters. The decoration is gorgeous and elegant. There is a hall first, the walls are filled with various paintings, and there are well-arranged exhibition stands in the hall. Various works of art, sculptures, bronzes, etc.

There are five floors in the entire castle, and the corridors and rooms on each floor are decorated with various unobtrusive antiques according to their characteristics.

Lando and his party slowly visited. The paintings here are much better than those exhibited by the painting club. After all, each pair can be said to be a masterpiece that has experienced the precipitation of history.

However, although these can inspire Lando, they are not what he wants. What he really wants to see is the treasure that made him feel that day on the Attenborough!
He also asked at that time, all the treasures in that room are exhibits of this private art exhibition!

While Lando was thinking, other people's chat aroused his interest.

"Speaking of which, why did Mr. Edward hold this private art exhibition with great fanfare? Have you never heard of Mr. Edward having such a hobby?"

"Who knows, if it is an ordinary person, it must be to make connections, but unlike us, Mr. Edward is not an ordinary person, he is a real rich man!"

"Hey, I know this. It is said that this art exhibition was held because Mr. Edward found a precious item from his ancestors, so that everyone can open their eyes!"

"A precious item from the ancestors? What is that?"

"I don't know, but it will be revealed soon, in the banquet hall on the top floor of the castle!"

"Oh, what are you waiting for, let's go up and have a look!"

"Go, go together!"

Precious items from ancestors?
Lando's heart moved, and he said to everyone: "Let's go to the top floor of the castle first?"

The other people obviously heard the conversation of the previous people and nodded in agreement.

When Lando and the others came to the banquet hall on the top floor, they saw that there were already 30 people here, but this banquet hall is quite large, not to mention 30 people, even if it can accommodate 300 people, it is more than enough.

What surprised Lando and the others was that everyone in the banquet hall stood quietly, as if trying not to make any noise.

Looking through the gaps in the crowd, they knew the reason.

In front of the huge window, Edward was holding a paintbrush and drawing on a drawing board. What he painted was the scenery of the sea and sky outside.

At this time, the sun is rising, the sea is sparkling, and there are waves from time to time, which is a beautiful scene!

Edward put all his attention into painting, and it seemed that his whole body was integrated into the scene, which was pleasing to the eye.

In addition to the breeze blowing in the whole banquet hall, there is only the rustling sound of brushes falling on the drawing board.

When Edward finished drawing the last stroke, a pure smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth. Then he was slightly startled, and looked at the banquet hall with five or sixty people. He seemed to understand something, and couldn't help showing an apologetic smile.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting so long." Edward got up and bowed to the people who were waiting quietly.

"It is my honor to see Mr. Edward's creation. If Mr. is willing to give up, I am willing to buy the painting just now. I believe that in the future, this will definitely be a handed down work!"

"That's right, Mr. Edward's painting skills are superb, and I was so addicted to watching it before I knew it, I didn't notice the passage of time at all. Even if this kind of masterpiece is put in the Moyuxuan auction, I think it can be used as the finale!"

"..."

Lando was also quite speechless after hearing all these cryptic or blatant flattery, presumably this is the so-called 'the rich have distant relatives in the mountains', right? !
Edward was obviously used to this kind of scene, first he ordered the butler to take down the painting he just painted, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, don't worry about my clumsy work, compared with my ancestors, my little tricks are far worse! "

With that said, he walked to a platform at the end of the banquet hall, on which were placed four stands covered with fine silk flannelette.

Lando's mood also lifted, and he noticed as soon as he entered the banquet hall that these four items all brought him wonderful spiritual premonitions, and the feeling conveyed by the last item was exactly the same as the one he felt on the Attenborough. unanimous.

Edward wasn't playing tricks either. He asked the waiter to take off the flannelette and proudly said, "Please appreciate the works of my ancestors..."

"Scream!"

As the velvet slipped, four seemingly similar paintings appeared in front of everyone.

The main body has an extremely painful expression against the background of blood red, and the person in it is full of trembling, blood red hallucinations, which makes people feel frightened and even a little disgusted!

Although the painting is consistent with the authenticity of natural colors, the way of expression is extremely exaggerated, which seems to show the author's own feelings. The distorted lines in the painting are in stark contrast to the thick and straight bridge, making it dull, Anxiety and loneliness are expressed to an extreme!
The four paintings obviously look similar, but when they are put together, the emotions contained in them have a sense of progression, stacking and complementing each other!

In Lando's perception, they even faintly form a unique field, which can easily affect the people in it!

When he was immersed in it, the reality seemed to gradually go away, everything around him began to turn into distorted colored lines, noises, and discussions entered his ears, as if they had become some kind of meaningless ramblings, which seemed to be heard, It seems that I can't hear it again.

It seems that countless people are constantly in your ears, silently...
