Chapter 268: Dissonance
The legend of the "Horus Mural" is well known to passers-by in this world.
The name comes from the most famous witcher in human history, "Horus" the Pioneer, who discovered and unveiled these ten murals made of various gems set in the walls during his adventures around the world.
The ten murals, each with a different picture and materials, appear to have both archaeological and artistic value, as well as high material value.
Of course, perhaps fearing damage to the frescoes, Horus stopped this after revealing the approximate locations of the first three frescoes, and the seven murals that were later discovered were copied to tell the story.
It is worth mentioning that Horus himself did not specify the specific order of the other seven gems that make up the frescoes, but only mentioned which ten substances the frescoes were made of.
But even so, when these ten murals were announced, they caused a great sensation in the world, and people had a general idea of what happened in ancient times.
"The First Mural" depicts the original chaotic world of stability and peace.
The "second fresco" depicts the ancient gods who appeared in the world and created scenes of humans and various creatures.
The "Third Mural" depicts the scene of human beings and various creatures inhabiting the world.
The "Fourth Mural" depicts the arrival of a demon star in the sky and its fall to the far north.
The "Fifth Mural" depicts the appearance of three demonic "demon star gods" in the world.
The "Sixth Mural" depicts the gradual beginning of chaos and killing in this world.
The "Seventh Mural" depicts the scene of the "Ancient Gods" and the "Demon Star God" beginning to quarrel.
The "eighth mural" depicts the beginning of a battle between the two sides.
The "Ninth Mural" depicts the scene of the "Ancient Gods" and the "Demon Star God" dying together and disappearing together.
The "Tenth Mural" depicts the world returning to tranquility and the separation of humans and demons.
Of course, the content of this is just a rough guess by Horus based on what is depicted on the fresco, and there may be a certain deviation in the specific situation, but it should also be the same.
From the creation of the world to the growth of all things, from the arrival of demon stars to the outbreak of war, from the battle of the gods to polarization, these murals depict the world before the emergence of human civilization with simple brushstrokes, the world that makes people extremely curious.
But is this really the case? In fact, there is another theory circulating in the world, that is, these frescoes seem to hide some strange secret, which even Horus cannot resist, and the secret that the later seven frescoes are hidden is only to monopolize the secret......
"But no matter how you look at it, you can't see what's hidden inside. ”
At this time, the "Dead Whisper Professor" Moniz happened to have ten authentic works of Horus murals in front of him, and with his erudition and strong memory, he naturally knew most of the legends and stories of these murals that have been handed down to this day, but it was difficult to find anything special.
If you want to talk about the original and the copy, the biggest gap is that the copied mural does not reflect the texture of the real handiwork, that is, the difference between various gemstones.
The first mural has a white background and is made of "diamond".
The second mural has a gray background and is made of "turquoise".
The third mural has a black background and is made of "pearls".
The fourth mural has a blue background and is made of "sapphire".
The fifth mural has a red background and is made of "rubies".
The sixth mural has a yellow background and is made of "pure gold".
The seventh mural has a green background and is made of "emerald".
The eighth mural, the background color is orange, and the material is "mercury stone".
The ninth mural, with a purple background, is made of "sterling silver".
The tenth mural has a transparent background and is made of "crystal".
When all the authentic works of the ten murals were excavated by the Demon King Army, the materials and colors used were naturally revealed at this time, especially when they were piled together, they looked very high-grade, and there was a feeling of golden brilliance.
These materials are genuine, and they are all of the best quality, but even then they don't seem to be anything special, at best, they are very expensive......
At this time, Moniz carefully examined the building materials on the ten murals, and wondered if there was anything hidden inside, and due to the lack of equipment in his hands, he quickly arranged for the frescoes to be carried into the laboratory area deep in the cave......
"Oh, this scene is really spectacular, all the murals of Horus are all there?"
After a while, while the murals were being investigated by Moniz, the Frankenstein brothers, and Wood and other members of the Demon King Institute, Rion, who had not been seen for a day or two, finally arrived here under the cover of night.
"Ah, it's a temple...... Your Highness, do you seem to be very depressed and need some refreshing potion?"
After seeing Rion, Wood, who was closest to the door, hurriedly greeted him, but when he saw Rion's face, he was taken aback.
"You can have a few bottles, but you have to increase the concentration to five times for me. ”
I have to say that the Liyong who appeared at this time looked a little yellow and thin, his eyes were as black as an iron-eating beast, and his spirit was also sluggish, as if he had been squeezed by something.
Of course, he knew the reason for this, after all, he had been doing an extremely difficult job since last night, and he had just done it all......
Almost in a matter of seconds, Lyon poured the three bottles of energy concentrating potion that Wood had handed him into his mouth, and after feeling better, he began to observe the real works of Horus murals up close.
It's an amazing thing, and even though I'm tired now, Rion quickly became obsessed with these beautiful works of art.
"Are there any results from the investigation?" After looking at it for a while, he turned to Moniz and the others on the side and asked, after all, Rion cared more about the core of these murals than artworks.
As early as when Tai Ming was still alive, that guy had mentioned what information was hidden in these murals, and the later "King in Yellow" Hasta directly named these murals as his own hands, so this is definitely not such a simple work of art.
"A detailed scan of the material is underway, but it seems that there is no special interlayer or special spell treatment on the inside of the mural, so it seems that nothing has been found yet. ”
Before Riyong came, the members of the "Demon King Research Institute" had already conducted a detailed internal and external scan of these ten murals with various messy instruments, and it can be said that the study was very thorough without destroying the cultural relics, so Moniz can answer with certainty.
Did you think there was some kind of document or spell hidden in it, and feelings were just a stone? But judging by Hassta's attitude, it was obvious that it was trying to convey some information, and there was no need to hide it, right?
So that's the message it wants to spread? The story of their ancient gods coming to fight with the human side? If you think that the "Creation God" gang is Noah and his friends, then this is a very clear story about the confrontation between good and evil.
But if it's that simple, why is Tamin and Hasta's attitude so strange?
Unconsciously, Lyon unconsciously caressed the first mural in front of him with his hand, feeling the delicate and cold diamond texture on it.
"Diamond, ruby, emerald, sapphire, turquoise, pearl, pure gold, mercury, sterling silver, crystal ......"
Lion stroked the mural in front of him, and couldn't help but start muttering the names of these ten gem materials, but after hearing these things, Wood next to him reminded with a smile: "Your Highness, the order is wrong, and the "diamond" is followed by "turquoise". ”
"Order?
"The order of the frescoes, in order of first to tenth, should be diamond, turquoise, pearl, sapphire, ruby, pure, emerald, mercury, sterling silver, and crystal. ”
After seeing the inexplicable expression on His Highness's face, Wood hurriedly said that because he was responsible for recording the results of the research, the names of these materials had been written at least dozens of times, and now he could recite them even with his eyes closed.
