Chapter 49: The Ten Calamities
Magic Dragon Square, it doesn't have a long history.
If you go back to the roots, its construction was about two years ago, when the legend of the [Cangtou Demon Dragon] had just set off its first climax.
The square is located in the center of the city, where the city government was originally located.
But for the sake of the art in their hearts, the artists of the City of Chaos worked together to demolish it.
The entire square covers an area of about 30,000 square meters, and the floor is all made of marble slabs.
Similarly, whether it is the floor of marble slabs or various sculptures and jade pillars, they are covered with graffiti by artists.
Only this time it's not a depiction, it's an etching.
Unfortunately, instead of carving knives, the artists used machetes, and the graffiti was a little rougher and manic.
In the center of the square, there is a huge jade wall.
Chen Qi collected all kinds of graffiti and finally came here.
However, before he could admire the picture on the jade, the bracelet in his right hand vibrated to remind him that a powerful lifeform was approaching.
The ones who came were Kolos and Giroud.
At this time, the two uninvited guests left with interest, and Chen Qi finally had time to enjoy the [Demon Dragon Praise Map].
"This seems to depict a battle?"
Chen Qi originally thought that the so-called tribute picture was a religious ritual-like worship picture.
It's nothing more than humans prostrate under the demon dragon and kowtow to offer gifts.
However, the drawings on the jade bi obviously did not agree with Chen Qi's ideas.
Above the jade, the four claws of the [Cangtou Demon Dragon] are like heavenly pillars, the dragon's head is like a hill, and the black jade-colored dragon body is undulating and stretching, like a hundred thousand miles of mountains.
It hovers in the sky, casting a shadow over the continent.
And on the mainland, there is no so-called sentient beings bowing down.
A terrifying creature with three heads and six arms roared at the Dragon.
The tension between the two sides was tense, and the terrifying sense of oppression even spread to Chen Qi's heart through the jade bi.
The artistic attainment of this picture is 10,000 times higher than that of those graffiti artists.
However, this is not the whole picture, on the continent covered by the magic dragon.
There are human cities, and although the style of those cities is slightly strange and old, it can still be seen at a glance that they are human buildings.
In the city, the crowd was like ants, and countless people waved their fists and looked up at the sky, as if cheering for one side of the confrontation.
Chen Qi saw a tall altar in a city that looked like a royal capital.
Countless high-ranking officials and dignitaries, dignitaries, are performing some kind of ritual on the altar.
······
"This is the [Demon Dragon Praise Map], which depicts the picture of the [Cangtou Demon Dragon] in the [Ten Calamities] descending on the [Tongtian Empire] five thousand years ago!"
Chen Qi is pondering what secrets are hidden in this picture, and whether there is a deep connection with the graffiti of the outside world.
An old man spoke behind him very abruptly, Chen Qi was suddenly startled, and subconsciously glanced at the bracelet on his wrist.
Nothing is wrong!
Chen Qi turned to look at the old man, this was an old man who looked fifty or sixty years old, and his complexion was very decrepit.
He was carrying a small bucket, and Chen Qi couldn't see through what was inside, but he smelled the smell of blood.
"It seems that the old gentleman is very clear about the origin of this picture?"
"Are the Ten Calamities in your mouth the legendary [Ten Terrifying Beings] that destroyed the last human epoch?"
The data displayed on the bracelet is very clear that this old man is an ordinary person, or even an ordinary person who is dying.
The life magnetic field can basically reflect a person's vitality and vitality, and the life magnetic field of this old man is far lower than that of ordinary humans, which is simply a candle in the wind.
The reason why Chen Qi didn't notice his approach was because he was attracted by the pictures on the jade bi.
Although he confirmed that the other party's body was only at the level of ordinary people, Chen Qi did not completely relax his vigilance.
The Magic Dragon Square may well be the source of everything.
How can it be just passers-by who can appear here at this time?
"You know the Ten Calamities?"
"I don't know if the last epoch was destroyed by the [Ten Calamities], I only know that the [Cangtou Demon Dragon] is ranked ninth among the Ten Calamities!"
"What do you think of this drawing?"
The old man looked at Chen Qi in surprise, there is no record of the knowledge of the [Ten Calamities] in the Blue Taro Country, and this guy in front of him actually knows?
He had just spoken casually, but now he had the slightest desire to talk.
However, the next plot did not play out as he expected!
Chen Qi suddenly felt like he was facing a great enemy, and quickly distanced himself from him.
The old man looked surprised, not understanding where he had revealed his flaws.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're the player hiding in the City of Chaos!"
"This "Praise of the Demon Dragon" is also from your hand!"
Chen Qi's face was determined, as if he had seen through everything.
He wouldn't tell the old man that he hadn't found any flaws in him.
I just think this old thing is very suspicious, and I plan to use [physical manipulation] to test it.
However, at the moment when he made this decision, [intuition] suddenly warned that it was still the kind of life and death.
This made Chen Qi realize that once he did it himself, he might be the one who died.
I don't know why this old thing's health is so bad, but the only one who can kill himself in this city is the player.
This guy knows so much about the [Cangtou Demon Dragon], he doesn't need to use his brain to guess the answer.
"It's a pity, it's a pity!"
"I wanted to talk to you about art."
"Seven of hearts, or [Joemoah Chris], you are not welcome in the City of Chaos, it's too late to leave!"
The old man didn't pretend at all, and after saying this, the purple light on his body flashed, and a jade-colored brush appeared in his hand.
The old man poked the jade pen into the small tube, and the brush instantly turned blood-red.
As early as the moment when the old man activated his ability, Chen Qi broke away from the Demon Dragon Square at a speed of 100 meters per second.
Chen Qi's choice was a bit beyond the old man's expectations!
The latter said "pity" a few times, and then he didn't pay attention to Chen Qi, but walked to Yubi and began to depict.
······
"The carrier of this guy's ability is a brush?"
Outside the square, Chen Qi did not continue to escape, but stopped to watch.
The old man doesn't seem to care about this, and only devotes himself to creation!
In front of the jade, the old man did the same as those graffiti artists, constantly coloring the pictures.
Soon, the entire jade bi was covered with blood-colored lines.
Even outside the square, Chen Qi took in all of this.
At first, Chen Qi didn't see anything abnormal, but as time went by, those blood-colored lines that gradually lit up became more and more familiar to Chen Qi!
Eventually, Chen Qi finally realized where this familiarity came from!
"Damn, it's really hidden, I'm almost confused!"
"The art of bullshit, idiot!"
By this time, Chen Qi had almost seen some eyebrows.
Interesting, really interesting!
It would be incredible if the city was as he thought.
This is definitely not something that this fool who claims to be an artist, but is actually a craftsman, can do.
It just so happens that the city in front of him will "become" a treasure trove in Chen Qi's eyes.
Otherwise, Chen Qi, who had already seen through a little of the truth, would have fled a long time ago.
It's just that I don't know what this old thing has to do with Najir, and I don't plan to eat black?
Now, Nagil doesn't matter, it's the whole city.
Chen Qi, who already regarded this city as a treasure trove, began to work harder [treasure hunting]!
He walked through the streets and alleys, through all the streets of the city, recording all the graffiti he could see.
Gradually, the puzzle became more and more complete, and Chen Qi became more and more convinced of his own judgment.
······
"Why didn't you kill the 7 of hearts just now!"
"If this guy dies, those annoying guys won't be able to catch up so easily."
In a studio, Nagel Buffon looks at the drawing board in front of him.
This is a rough map of the city with 5 black dots that are constantly moving.
In particular, the one representing the 7 of hearts is like a headless fly.
It was this guy who served as a transit point to inform everyone of his whereabouts.
The object of Nagil's questioning was the old man who had just returned to the studio after completing his art copying.
