Chapter 0260 - Vanishing Painting (6000 Plus, Ask for Subscription)
Late at night.
A small team of members of the Church of the Goddess of Light arrived in the town of Warno.
"It's been determined, the target is inside the hotel, a total of three people ......"
The dark streets were silent, except for the gentle sound of leather boots rubbing against the gravel path.
Around the corner, a local church member who had been keeping an eye flashed out and whispered.
"The church will record your exploits, now, go back and get some sleep."
The leader is a middle-aged man with a kind smile.
"Thank you...... Dedication to the goddess is what I should do. The stalker was a little flattered, saluted again, and then hurried away.
"Your Excellency?"
Beside him, a priest suddenly spoke, with an inquiring meaning.
"This time to arrest the members of the Black Death Society, it must be done clean and beautiful......," the middle-aged bishop made a prayer gesture: "The recent federation is very unpeaceful...... Charles, Niah, Poggi, and most recently, Rory, have had a succession of accidents, and the members of the Church who have been stationed there have suffered terrible deaths, and although they have been glorified by the Goddess and ascended to His heavenly kingdom, it is a shame for us! ”
"But...... As long as it is an action, there will inevitably be accidents. ”
If there is an accident, there may be casualties!
In this case, involve the locals, at least with the convenience of familiarizing themselves with the terrain.
"Rest assured, this operation will be successful, and before leaving, the archbishop specially handed me a magical item."
The middle-aged bishop smiled and opened the suitcase.
Inside, there is an oil painting frame made of walnut, the front of which is covered with a black cloth, making it impossible to see the contents clearly.
"It turned out to be it!"
Several priests nodded excitedly.
"Start preparing ......"
The middle-aged bishop took a few more steps, and the inn not far away came into view.
He smiled, took out the frame, pointed it at the inn, and ripped off the black curtain.
A strange and invisible force field spread, suddenly enveloping the opposite inn.
If you stand on the front, you can see that the oil painting in the frame was originally blank.
But with the passage of time, the traces on it have increased, as if there is an invisible painter who is improvising!
Minutes and seconds passed.
In the silence of the surroundings, an oil painting was finally completed.
It is a dilapidated inn with a thick darkness all around.
Then, in the midst of everyone's surprise, longing, and other complicated eyes, the hotel opposite suddenly disappeared.
It seems that the entire hotel in the real world has been sealed into an oil painting!
"Okay, when we go back, we'll bring out the people inside to screen them one by one."
The cardinal put the painting away, covered it with a tarpaulin, and spoke lightly.
If it weren't for the fact that this oil painting takes time to 'paint', and the stronger the goal, the longer the painting time, and the period cannot be deviated from a certain range, otherwise it will inevitably fail, it is definitely a very powerful legendary artifact.
Even now, when faced with some immobile targets, its effect is not trivial.
The ranks of the church quickly retreated.
On a rooftop not far away, Sulu was peeping at the scene with great interest: "Magical items? The results are really ...... Extraordinary! ”
It's a pity that some of them are too much better, and they disappear into thin air, and there are no people inside, and the town will definitely explode tomorrow.
"I feel like the Goddess of Light Church has become a lot more cautious now, obviously it's just a few small characters......"
He had to sigh.
It seems that after a few losses, the church is also growing rapidly.
Moreover, the background is very thick, and the magical items just accumulated are very powerful.
"Hopefully they won't be used against me someday in the future......"
Sulu sighed, and his figure faded into the darkness.
……
"Whew...... It's New Year's again. ”
The next morning, Sulu squinted his eyes in the warm sun.
He remembered that in the middle of the previous New Year, there was an attack on the city of Niah, and then the inner ring of Fort Greentree was devastated.
On the occasion of the arrival of the year 280 of the federal calendar, the city of Nia is gone again!
How can the spokesmen of the Federation hide this question that must be raised? Or will the Duke Act be introduced?
Sulu moved his body and looked at the attribute bar:
"Strength: [2.4], Dexterity: [6.0], Constitution: [4.3], Spirit: [10.0]......"
After using his potion skills and occult knowledge, he checked the two 'Holy Blood Elixirs' and confirmed that there was no problem, and Sulu used them directly.
They give him a 0.3 CON increase.
"It's a pity...... The effect is also gradually decreasing, if there are more than three, it will probably only have the effect of eliminating fatigue and healing......"
This is a common problem in all pharmacy, and at least at the advanced level, until some specific knowledge is exposed, it is a problem that cannot be changed.
After breakfast, Sulu took his suitcase and said goodbye to the Roses as they prepared to catch the steam train.
"Goddess!"
"Where's Old Jack's inn?"
"I remember it was here yesterday?"
"The people inside, as well as the lord in the city, are all gone?"
"This must be a demonic curse!"
When I passed by the hotel, there was already a large circle of people there, looking at the disappearing inn and talking about it, with a frightened expression on his face.
Sulu pretended to be curious and watched for a while, and then saw that it was too late, so he hurried to the train station in the town.
Whining!
With the sound of a whistle, the steam train left the town of Warno with a large amount of white smoke.
He found a corner where no one was around, and just waited quietly.
It didn't take long for a strong man like a bear to squeeze over: "What? Don't you want to leave? ”
He's Rhodes, of course, and he's already on the train.
"No...... It's just that I suddenly felt a little emotional, and the disappearance of the inn in the town......"
Sulu shook his head.
"I think I've heard the description of the magical artifact, which came from the sacrificial ritual of some hapless bastard...... The man was a painter who was madly obsessed with something anomalous and found inspiration in it...... Until one day, he disappeared in the studio, leaving only the blank oil painting on the scene......"
Rhodes seems to have heard of the miraculous object: "Later, after a few more disappearances, the church was finally alarmed, and it was discovered that the missing person had entered the painting, and after a certain line of sight, he would disappear completely...... Old Jack, you don't have to worry about them, after the church confirms their innocence, they will definitely release them, and maybe return the house to him. ”
"Funny thing, does it have a name?"
Sulu asked curiously.
"It's called 'Oil Painting Without Content'! It's a miracle for dealing with enemies that don't move, haha......" Rhodes gave a look of disdain.
