Chapter 45: The Aesthetics of Alienation

Guan Li inquired about the information of black gold and knew that this painter had a certain reputation at home and abroad.

Compared to the scattered works he saw when he was looking for people on the AS station, Heijin's more well-known works are his "Mountains and Seas" series.

With hazy and wanton brushstrokes, he paints the shape and meaning of the ghosts.

Those strange creatures that can only be described in words shine with new brilliance in his pen, wrapped in the strange attraction of the legendary charm of severing beings, making black gold famous in one fell swoop.

This strange beauty of classical and surreal coexistence is exactly what made Guan Li choose him.

Compositionally, the "gods" of the Cthulhu Mythos are all uglyโ€”tentacles, slime, eyeballs, and weirdly twisted bodies.

But they are also "beautiful" and possess a charm beyond human comprehension.

If they can be embodied in the game values, their appearance values must be huge numbers that break through the limits of human beings.

Of course, this kind of "beauty" is not necessarily understood by ordinary people.

A good painter can try his best to extract it and present it to the viewer, so that they can also experience the "beauty" of these gods and see the world far beyond the past.

- In short, Guan Ideal wants Cthulhu's readers to experience the impact of the three views and the doubt of self.

- He wants to make trouble.

And the premise of all this is that Black Gold agrees to draw the Cthulhu series, otherwise it will be empty talk just now.

Not only that, Guan Li also has to go to the long sea of people to spend time looking for a suitable painter.

Luckily, Heijin agreed to the request and left further online contact information for future communication.

It's not convenient to use your email all the time, is it?

The next step is to add friends, make your own requests, negotiate compensation, agree on delivery time, etc......

For this well-known painter who combines classical Chinese techniques with modern painting techniques to delve into the "Mountains and Seas" series, Guan Li still trusts him a lot, and directly sends the appearance descriptions of several "gods" in the past.

To be honest, it's really not something that needs to be kept secret.

For the Cthulhu series, Guan Li is ready to open up to the world like Dresser, depending on how far it can develop.

It is better to fight against the Foundation Chamber, then the previously proposed method of "provoking contradictions between the two sides for propaganda" can come in handy.

The first is the ruler of the old days and the leader of the outer gods, the "god of blind foolishness" Azathoth.

Azathoth is described as a god who operates entirely on instinct.

It takes the form of a dark, chaotic mass of massive amorphous mass, in a palace in the middle of the universe, frantically beating an invisible giant drum and a flute that produces only a disgusting, monotonous sound, accompanied by the frantic howls of the old rulers.

Divine Will: "Can you draw this?"

Black Gold: "...... Haha, this description seems to be more powerful than the "Mountains and Seas" I painted before......"

Even if Guan Li's emotional intelligence is not high, he can clearly see the forced smile in this sentence.

Does it look hard to draw?

Black Gold: "Don't you have any further requests?"

Divine Will: "It is required to draw unknown fears and ultimate beauty that transcend human cognition." โ€

Black Gold: "Huh?"

Divine will: "Can't you do it?"

Black Gold: "No...... Friend, can you make the request clear, no, to put it more simply, and if it doesn't feel right, it's a waste of our time, right?"

Okay, he's thinking of backing down now.

It's just that the waves are too much and I can't afford to eat, and I want to take an order to sell a little money, but what is the situation of this appointment?

Darkness, chaos, amorphous clumps?

Draw a ghost!

Guan Li thought about it for a while, and felt that it was indeed a bit difficult for Heijin to use his imagination to draw Azathos based on this text description.

And there is a good chance that the direction of the other party's imagination will not match their expectations.

Case......

Divine Will: "Wait, I'll send you the worldview setting for the creation project." โ€

Black Gold: "Ah, is that okay?...... Well, you send it. โ€

Black Gold's confusion can be felt across the Internet, and then he receives a brief analysis of the Cthulhu Mythos' worldview in Guan Lisai's past.

The moment he clicked on the file, he literally became the first native in the world to see the definition of the Cthulhu Mythos.

SAN crisis is coming!

Comrade Heijin's three views have been impacted, but he is firmly supported under the wise leadership of socialism with Chinese characteristics!

Guan Li waited patiently for him to finish reading, and during this time, he deserted and went to the forum again to take a look, and found that many people had gathered under the post he replied to.

And the future that failed to rub the administrator's thigh did not stick to the account of "divine will" again, but just replied with a sentence later-

"Absolutely! Thank you for the god's will!@็ฎก็†ๅ‘˜, I think such a good post should be refined and put at the top!"

This time, the administrator felt that he was very reasonable, so he rewarded a fine to the top.

This move blew up a nest of melon-eating people.

They began to talk about the "confession" of whether the administrator saw the future or not, and if he did, he was so obedient to the top......

Tsk tsk, there is adultery!

The administrator who said that no one would gay and didn't move, but you secretly engaged in a py transaction!

The situation quickly developed into a solemn denunciation of the future.

- "In the future, you will no longer be new. From now on, you take your big man's road, and I will cross my new bridge!

- "There are only two kinds of people in the Foundation: Future, 001, and Esther, and we are the other. โ€

- "@O5-1, come out to fight the enemy!"

The system that was brought out by Aite: "???" what kind of love enemy?

"I'm done. Over there, Black Gold quickly finished the not-so-long introduction.

Divine Will: "How does it feel?"

Black gold: "Eye-opening, trembling, shattered three views...... Honey with feeling!"

Divine Will: "...... Oh. โ€

Kurojin: "Is this your literary project?Or do you want to make a game?Or do you want to animate?Why do you have such a big project? Don't you have your own artist?"

Divine Will: "Literature, not games, not animation, at least not for the time being." Don't you have an artist, do you take orders?"

This cold attitude is the same as when he abducted Ren Ji when he wrote an online article.

And the other party's reaction was similar to Ren Jiyuan...... No, Black Gold bit the hook even more cheerfully, "Eh, let me tell you, I like challenging projects!"

God's will: "That's good." โ€

Hei Jin: "Conventional painting is not interesting, so I went to paint "Mountains and Seas", to be honest, the feeling of being able to blind a few paintings with a few words is really cool!"

God's will: "Artistic creation is the most important thing for oneself to be happy." โ€

Heijin: "Yes, I like those weird supernatural things, so after painting "Mountains and Seas", I went to try religious themes, but those teachings are really troublesome, and it hurts to watch!"

Divine Will: "I saw your religious works, and it is because of them that I came to you." โ€

Black Gold: "Ah...... It's all a failure. There are so many religious painters that it's not interesting to draw what other people have drawn. โ€

Divine Will: "Then Cthulhu should be a good fit for you, you're the first person besides us to see it." โ€

"Really? I'll give it a try. Black Gold became excited, "But this unknown and mysterious horror aesthetic is a subject that I have never painted before, and there is no guarantee of the finished style." โ€

Divine will: "With your level, it won't be bad." โ€

Kurokane: "I think so too, so let's negotiate the price." โ€
