Chapter 807: Main Street
"Count, when you came before...... Is it also such a scene of engaging in art? ”
"Pretty much, but not so much."
"[The festival] is going on, and it makes sense that the atmosphere is a little stronger.
In this way, there is no problem, at least we can be sure that the other party is not deliberately aiming at us to create such a 'city-wide painting' scene.
Also, the artwork I've seen so far doesn't have much impact on me. ”
"Cut! What impact can this low-level work created by garbage demons have?
If it was just this group of inferior demons stationed here, would Count Ben still be afraid before? We're going to kill them all in minutes, okay?
These idiots aren't even appetizers, and when you get to that guy's palace, you'll be able to feel it.
However, there is one thing to remind you. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Once, when I noticed something unusual and decided to flee the city overnight.
The scene is completely different from the original city streetscape...... It may be an illusion caused by the "invasion of the mind", or it may be a special method set up by the "lord" in the city.
I was in such a hurry to flee that I didn't look into it at all. ”
"A completely different city? What does it look like? ”
"A distorted, abstract city of depravity."
"Very interesting information, Earl, you are quite reliable."
"Don't go to the line with the artist, we can talk about anything."
"Don't worry, unless I am forced into a corner, I will not take the initiative to provoke this [atavistic body]...... That's right! If I kill this "painter", you should be of great help to the earl.
For example, if you absorb the blood of the atavistic body, you may be able to make a breakthrough or even touch the atavism. ”
"Don't ...... Count Ben is in good shape right now and doesn't need to break through anything. ”
Hearing this, Han Dong snickered secretly.
The more the earl coaxed, the more Han Dong wanted to see what the atavistic body-alien demon really looked like.
……
Walk along the red brick terraced streets, and finally come to [Vanucci Street] located in the hilltop area.
Only VIPs who have passed the art review or have been invited by the lord will be allowed to enter this main street
The entrance is guarded by a giant alien (mature).
This is also the first time I have seen a non-spiritual demon since I went up the mountain...... The huge physique occupies almost one-third of the street, and the aura emitted is slightly weaker than that of the "Bamboo Flute Messenger".
He wears a religious leather coat (the leather surface is inlaid with crosses of various styles and some Bible pages are fastened).
In his left hand, he holds a "meat hammer" - a crimson hammer made of tightly compressed flesh with sharp spikes growing between the flesh.
Holding a "forbidden shield" in his right hand - a huge shield with forbidden words written on it, more than a dozen palms taken from different humans (fixed with iron nails through the fingers and bottoms) are fixed, which seems to express the meaning of prohibiting passage.
Lacking a skull structure, it is unknown how he can achieve his sensory abilities.
"It's another [Mature Body-Alien Demon]...... It is worthy of being the corresponding city of "medium-sized land deeds".
However, it seems that it is only a mature body that has just formed, and its strength is not as strong as that of the Earl, and even less than the [Corpse Hider] I just recruited. ”
Zorro, the messenger who led the way, said:
"Guda, these are the honored guests invited by the lord to participate in the art festival."
The guard, known as Guda, did not let him go directly.
Instead, he raised the forbidden shield in his hand and leaned against the crowd.
The palms of the hands fixed to the surface of the shield opened their eyes of various sizes, carefully observing the group of outsiders...... Especially stayed in front of Han Dong for a long time.
After making sure that the masks worn by the four of them all exuded the aura of the lord's palace.
Slowly move his body out of the way, allowing passage.
"Please don't mind.
Guda is a faithful servant of the "lord" who has been picked up from outside...... Except for the orders directly given by the lord, he doesn't listen to anything.
What we are now entering is that the core streets covered by this "Arts Festival" can only be participated by aliens who are qualified in terms of artistic attainment.
It allows everyone to carry out high-level artistic exchange, creation and sale of artworks here.
They are also allowed to visit the Lord's private palace and art gallery for a limited time, and to be assessed by the Lord's art...... Only a few gifted xenomorphs were favored by the lord and stayed in the museum to work. ”
"Okay."
Again, an important piece of information.
According to Han Dong's observations, there is a serious hierarchy in [Perugia City], from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the corresponding inhabitants of different areas are different.
Even the current main street is divided into high-level artists and masters who can be recruited into the museum by the lord.
Other words.
The core combat power of [Perugia City] is basically concentrated in the lord's palace.
Moreover, Han Dong also faintly saw another problem.
A large part of the demons here do not like the art and culture left over from mankind.
It is only through the pursuit of artistic realm to improve "spiritual power", hoping to achieve self-improvement through artistic creation and touch the realm of atavism.
It's still a primitive impulse for power.
When I set foot on [Vannuchi Street], the mental pressure on all sides increased sharply.
The sacred line of defense that Wino had set up in his head was somewhat impacted...... Just as she tried to pray for herself, she was pulled by Han Dong.
"Sister Wino, you will be targeted if you use your abilities here...... I'm here to help you decompress. ”
Han Dong hugged him to his side, and then put his mouth to Wino's ear.
Such an action made her face flush immediately when she was under the mask, but the thought that she was playing the wife of Nicholas suppressed her inner resistance as much as possible.
Hahaha...... Laughing madly.
The unprecedented feeling of refreshment returns Wino to the way she was when she first went up the mountain.
The whispers and strange sounds in my ears, the rats, beasts and colors in my consciousness all dissipated.
"Nicholas, you!"
"Follow me all the way and don't leave for any reason."
"Oh......"
Wino has been a very strong girl since she was a child, and she wants to compete for the first place in everything she does, and she wants to be stronger than the boys...... This is also the main reason why she was able to pass the [Battle Nun] assessment.
A feeling of 'dependence' that I almost never felt felt swept through my body.
staring at the young man holding him beside him, there was no longer any sense of rejection in his heart.
Just as we were about to arrive at the [November 4th] square in the center of the city.
The messenger who led the way stopped abruptly.
"Please come directly to the Umbria Art Museum and participate in the banquet at the Supreme Palace, which will also be attended by the lordship......"
"Did something happen?"
"Your Lord has a high opinion of your mask design, especially the three of you...... Eliminate the process of creating art in the square.
Hopefully, you've gotten used to the artistic vibe.
Don't show any 'discomfort' in front of your liege. ”
