I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 43 Artwork

Caios and Salveira stayed in Sardinburg until the early morning of the third day before leaving.

Before leaving, looking at the five people standing in line at the door and saluting as he had when he came, Keos hesitated for a while, but finally said nothing.

It is hard to say whether those two servants and the full-armored guard belonged to Benin, but the two servants of Woda and Tek's family must have been arranged by Benin.

But for the time being, it seems that their role here is more of surveillance, and the chaos they can cause is limited.

Even with the ability of the little undead Luna, they didn't dare to get too close to the basement.

Lena also told him that before, "my brother said, if they dare to approach the basement, they will be killed."

When the little undead said this, there was no trace of murderous intent, but he had no doubt that she had this ability.

In Sardinburg, the basement has a locked metal door, so access from the outside is difficult.But as an undead, it was very easy for Lena to extend her power to the entire Sardinburg.

For now, in Sardinburg, Little Lenna is the stronger one.

……

Keos didn't go back directly to Beishan Manor. When he passed Yulang City, he asked Salveira to drive the carriage into the city, and then took a transfer vehicle to the inner city to go to the library.

Instead of reading any books, he submitted an application to go to the fourth floor in the management room on the first floor. The reason was:
"research."

He didn't know what books were on the fourth floor. He asked the library staff, but they didn't know and couldn't provide inquiries.

However, he had a hunch that on the first, second and third floors, in all the magic books, the "black magic" category was just mentioned briefly, including the content of curses and undead spells, which might be found on the fourth floor.

After submitting the application, he could not get an answer immediately. The staff told him:
"Send someone to get the results in three days."

On the way back, Keos kept thinking about the information he had gained from his trip to Sardinburg.

There is a lot of information, and due to his lack of relevant knowledge, there is no way to make a more accurate judgment.

Originally, he could have told Guan Yaoxing most of the information, and she would help analyze it. After all, she could see that the "secret technique" she practiced might be a kind of undead spell through two layers of forbidden spirit domains—it turns out that she also You are right.

But this time when he came back from Sardinburg, he found that there was too much information that he didn't want Guan Yaoxing to know for the time being.

For example, the undead he summoned was his sister Lenna Lee. For example, he found that his soul can be immune to soul spells; for example, he can easily do some things that the original owner had imagined but could not do; The method he taught was used to practice undead spells, and he was also conducting various experiments and improvements. Even before the coma, he made a very bold and radical attempt...

So Kaios wanted to try to obtain relevant knowledge through other channels to help him judge.

……

Yulang City Shengyou Palace.

In a spacious and luxurious office, the most powerful person in the city—Pande Boccano, the presiding judge of the Holy Blessing Palace, was standing in front of a carefully framed painting, sprinkled with flowers through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Appreciating the incoming sunlight, my face is intoxicated.

There was a knock on the door.

"Hmm." Pan De frowned slightly, clicked his tongue lightly, and responded unhappily, obviously a little unhappy about being interrupted while admiring the painting.

A man wearing a Shengyou Palace-style robe came in with a tray, and said respectfully, "My lord, this is an additional application document for today."

"What's the matter? Is it still an application for the title of knighthood? You go and call Dominique over and ask him to review it. If there is no problem in the review, just send it to the Holy Capital." Pan De said impatiently.

"Yes, there are three knighthood applications, and... there is also an application for reading on the fourth floor of the library."

"Library?" Pender became interested and turned around: "Put down all the applications and call Dominique."

"Yes."

Pan De walked to the table, put aside the several thick applications for titles with exquisite covers, saw the thin application for library reading, and picked it up with his thumb and middle finger.

"Kaos Li? Check the information?" Pan De laughed.

"My lord, what are you looking at? Are you so happy?" Dominic pushed the door open and asked with a smile, "Is there a familiar master who has been promoted?"

"No, I was appreciating this painting just now, and I saw this application, what a coincidence." Pan De pointed at the painting, then raised the application in his hand and said.

Dominique saw the red painting at a glance, resisted the urge to frown, and then leaned over to look at the name on the application: "Kaios Li? He applied to read on the fourth floor of the library? "

Kaios didn’t know that the presiding judge of Shengyou Palace in Yulang City would need to personally approve the application for reading on the fourth floor of the library.

Of course, what he didn't expect was that at the auction at that time, the one who bought his painting at a high price of 14300 coupons was actually the presiding judge Pan De.

"I was a little worried before. I was afraid that he would lose his creativity after being in a coma for two days and almost died, but now it seems that I was too worried. He will still apply to go to the fourth floor of the library. He is very motivated !Ha ha!"

"My lord, I heard... At the previous auction in the Grand Theater, Kaios Li basically used all the proceeds from the painting auction to buy a prisoner from the Western Realm." Dominique said seemingly "inadvertently".

"Oh, that prisoner from the Western Realm? That's a hard stubble, not easy to chew on, not easy to chew on!" Pender was obviously impressed by that prisoner from the Western Realm, "Don't tell me, I was also a little bit tempted at that time. Yes. But a woman that the Marquis of Steel Heart can’t chew, so she came up for auction in a bloody dress, so I dare not buy it! Baron Li, if you are not careful, you may knock out all your teeth!”

Dominique said in a half-joking tone: "If he dies, wouldn't the painting in your lord's hand increase in value?"

"It doesn't matter whether the value increases or not. What's the point of the [-] to [-] magic coupons to me? I know that there are many auras or magicians with relatively high ranks in the Punishment Knights now. Officials, you should not play art like the nobles, thinking that these things are all vain and useless, and the value is all promoted by the nobles."

"My lord misunderstood, the villain never has such an idea!" Dominic was so frightened that he was sweating, he knew very well how much the presiding judge liked all kinds of artworks.

"Hehe, I didn't mention you, but there are indeed such people, and there are quite a few."

As Pender spoke, he glanced at Dominic and hooked his fingers: "Come here, you stand here and look over."

Dominic walked to Pender as he said, and followed his guidance to look at the red painting by Kaios Li.

"How about it?"

"The color... gorgeous... red... like blood?" Dominique smiled bitterly: "Forgive me for being stupid."

Pan De smiled and said: "It's okay, it's normal not to be able to see it. With your cultivation base, if you can see it, it will be just around the corner to enter the super-level."

He said, put away his smile, pointed to the red painting and said: "That is pain, the pain of the soul being burned by the flames. This red is not blood, this red is fire, which comes from the abyss of hell, eats through the body, and devours the soul." Fire. On a sunny day, in the sun between 1 and 3 p.m., it's more intense."

Pan De closed his eyes, tilted his face slightly, took a deep breath, and sighed: "It hurts, it hurts too much! But after that, it's a pleasure!"

Dominic was dumbfounded, he couldn't understand, but he heard Pender's sentence "Entering the super-level is just around the corner", but he heard it clearly.

When he looked at the red painting again, his eyes were different, a little more eager.

"Do you know who owns another painting of Kaios Li now?" Pender squinted at him.

"In the hands of... which master?" Dominic asked.

Pan De did not answer him, but walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathed in the sun, and said leisurely: "A real work of art can bring you spiritual cultivation. When an artist creates, he sacrifices himself. soul."
