Chapter 31: The Cursed Painting

"Miss?" Chu Ge was a little confused, what was the origin of this person, and he was willing to let himself be so ashamed to call her so ashamed.

But he has no opinion, after all, he finally met a doctor, of course, he has to coax people, otherwise when he has no blood, what will he do if his sister doesn't milk him.

"Yes, Miss. Chu Ge said obediently.

At this moment, the sound of system messages also sounded in their ears.

【Main quest start】

[Requirements: Explore the museum and find the cursed painting]

Chu Ge touched his chin, although the task requirement said that they could just find the cursed painting, but this was a nightmare game.

Until now, there are still people who have not passed the beginner's book, and there must be terrible dangers hidden behind the simple tasks.

"Did you hear the system?"

Chu Ge said in a deep voice: "Let's split up and find that painting first." I'm in a group with Chubby, and Old Dream is in a group with you and Miss. ”

Everyone nodded, and no one retorted.

"Old dream, the eldest lady is the only doctor in our team, you have to protect her. Chu Ge instructed.

"Don't worry!"

Old Dream took out his weapon, which was a mace, which was actually a baseball bat with many nails on it, but it looked much more ferocious than a normal athlete's baseball bat.

"I don't need his protection, do you think I can be here because I have to rely on others to protect me?" said the eldest lady with a disgusted expression.

Emmm...... It seems to make sense.

In this difficult game, no one can play this level until now, even if the doctor will be taken care of by his teammates, but there must be something else to excel in.

"Okay, you two take care of each other. If you find the painting, don't act on your own and tell your teammates to get together. ”

Chu Ge said in a deep voice: "I think, that painting is definitely not that simple. ”

In this way, they began to move separately, and when they passed through the hall of the museum, they could see a fork in the road, Chu Ge and their soldiers were divided into two ways, Old Dream and the eldest lady walked to the left, and he and Xiaopang walked to the right.

In the fork in the road on the left, Old Dream and the eldest lady advanced one after the other, although the eldest lady said that she didn't need to protect her from the old dream, but the old dream still volunteered to walk in front.

The museum was bigger than they expected, and there were many paintings hanging on the walls around it.

So......

It's a bit hard to find that painting in so many collections.

If you look closely, the paintings on the walls reveal weirdness.

There is a painting of a dense forest, and the whole forest is burning under a blazing fire, and in this burning forest, it seems that a large figure can be seen.

It has many large mouths, countless black whip-like tentacles sweeping through it, and huge limbs like sheep's hooves beneath it.

"What kind of weird thing is this...... Old Dream couldn't help but say.

The eldest lady did not speak, but her brow furrowed as she looked at the other painting.

White, is a snow-capped ice field.

Black, is a majestic mountain range.

This painting depicts a scene from the polar world, and the black mountains reveal mystery and majesty.

"......" The eldest lady felt a little uncomfortable.

Not far away, she saw a landscape painting depicting the sky, which was made up of lines, like Van Gogh's painting style, and the distorted lines were more like the tentacles of an octopus.

But when she looked closely, she found that under the tentacle-like lines of those octopuses, there seemed to be other patterns hidden, and their forms were like skulls, hideous and terrifying.

"Miss, come and see this painting!"

The voice of the old dream caught her attention, and the eldest lady also looked over there.

At the end of the corridor was a landscape depicting a cemetery at night, with a terrifying figure crouching under a tombstone in the moonlight, as if gnawing on something.

Old Dream and the eldest lady glanced at each other, they felt that this painting was very familiar, isn't this the cemetery of the novice copy?

The paintings in front of them seemed to hint at something, hinting at the secrets of this museum, and the true face of this black Kiri Island, the truth of everything......

Meanwhile.

In the fork in the road on the right, unlike the eldest lady's side, Chu Ge's wall was not a landscape painting but a portrait painting.

It's just that the characters in the painting are distorted, and their expressions are terrifying and terrifying.

Some people have their eyes pulled out, some have cut several wounds on their faces with knives, and some are pulling their hair hard......

"Chu Ge...... Why are these paintings so intoxicating?"

Xiao Fat's tone trembled and said, the two of them had come to the center of the museum, and the paintings were terrifying and terrifying in the dim light, making people dare not take a serious look.

Chu Ge pursed his lips, "Tsk, the routine of horror games, if you don't make some scary paintings, how can you be worthy of the name of the museum's horror?"

"That's right. Wang Yingjun felt that Chu Ge's words made some sense.

Just then, he saw a portrait of a woman.

The woman reminded him of the famous Mona Lisa's smile, and the woman did the same, with a smile on her face, but her smile always looked so weird.

Just as Chubby was about to turn his head, he was surprised to see that the woman in the painting winked at them!

"Chu... Chu Chuge, the eyes of the person in the painting moved!" Xiao Fat grabbed Chu Ge's sleeve.

Chu Ge glanced at him with disgust, grabbed his hand and asked, "Which painting did you say your eyes moved?"

"That's it!" Wang Yingjun pointed to the smiling woman.

Chu Ge looked at the painting, he took out a crowbar and walked directly to this side, picked up the crowbar and smashed it hard!

With a bang, the entire painting fell off the wall, shattering the frame.

"Let you move!"

"I see if you dare to move!"

In the blink of an eye, the painting was smashed to pieces, if it wasn't for Xiao Fat holding him, Chu Ge might still be smashing it there.

"It can't blink now, can it?" said Chu Ge, looking at the broken photo frames and shredded drawing paper all over the floor.

Xiaopang's expression was surprised, worthy of Chu Ge, he never played cards according to the routine, he acted vigorously as soon as he made a move, no matter what kind of bull ghost and snake god he was, he was done.

So no matter how scared Xiaopang usually is, he feels very relieved to be with Chu Ge.

It didn't take long for them to encounter a few more paintings that showed strange signs, but they were all smashed by Chu Ge.

For the next few minutes, they didn't encounter any strange signs.

Coming to the end of this gallery, Chu Ge saw that there seemed to be something on the cabinet not far away, which were four oil lamps, but they were not lit.

He didn't pay much attention to it when he took a look, because the museum was now brightly lit and there was no need for oil lamps to illuminate it.

He and Chubby continued to walk forward, and after passing through the gallery, their eyes suddenly opened up to a spacious artifact exhibition area.

The display case contains a variety of items that seem to bear witness to the history of Black Kirishima, including strangely shaped masks, ancient daggers, porcelain, stone slabs, and more.

Chu Ge was surprised to find that there seemed to be a dagger in each display case, and he didn't know why.

After walking through these display cases, Chu Ge found that the front had turned into a statue area, and the closest statue was a black figure, which covered its head with one hand, as if thinking, but the other hand pointed into the distance.

Next to it is a mighty lion statue that sits cross-legged on the ground, but the mane on its head has become a twisted tentacle of an octopus.

I don't know why, these statues made Chu Ge feel a little uncomfortable.

He shook his head, raised his eyes and looked deeper, and found that these statues turned out to be in the form of human and inhuman, Chu Ge saw the familiar ghoul, and some other strange creatures, which he had not seen before.

And among the many statues, there is a large black stone slab that catches his eye.

This slate is more than one person high, and I don't know what era it comes from, and it is covered with mottled traces of time.

It was carved with a relief, a strange creature with a twisted body that resembled an octopus and a bat, and many hideous eyes on its head, which made people look uncomfortable.

Underneath this strange relief, lines of incomprehensible text are carved that look like wriggling bugs.

Chu Ge just glanced at it, and found that those worm-like words began to move, and a call that seemed to come from the abyss sounded in his ears.

“Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!”
