Chapter 161: Amos Cauldron Morrison
By the time Annan woke up, his portrait had already been painted.
"Thank you very much for your cooperation."
Amos's voice sounded behind Annan: "Really...... Don't need to prepare dinner? ”
“…… No, let's prepare. ”
There was a hint of hesitation in Annan's tone.
Amerston chuckled, "That's right." I'm a very hospitable person......"
Although this does sound very polite......
But his words were almost overflowing with impatience, but there was no intention of hiding them at all. He did not invite Annan to look at the painting, but took it upon himself to put it away. When he invited Annan, not only did he speak quickly, but he didn't even look him in the eye.
From his speech and demeanor, Annan keenly smelled a certain sense of superiority...... As well as an inferiority complex that is not very noticeable.
He has a particularly good attitude towards Jiu'er, probably because Jiu'er still shows "curiosity" and "praise" for his paintings when he plays a homeless man. This fully satisfied Amos's self-esteem.
It makes sense.
Because he first held a ceremony to the skeleton man, mainly because he touched the bottleneck of art and did not have the patience to choose to break through slowly. But you must know that Yaon also has a service to improve the level of art.
However, unlike the Skeleton Prince, Yaon prefers to come up with an effective "training method", or point out mistakes and improvements in the art style, and then let his followers go back to continue their penance.
Yes, to his followers, Jaon was a sharp-eyed, unceremonious critic who did not dare to offend at all.
This is undoubtedly a difficult troublemaker for artists, but it is also a good mentor and friend.
Amos chose not Jaon, but the Skeleton Male......
At that time, his thoughts were already exposed.
- He didn't want to try any harder.
He just needs to draw a better picture immediately and become famous quickly...... But even Amos himself did not perceive the laziness and restlessness in his heart.
The kind of "I just want to pursue a higher level of art" that he shows in Elle's memory, is really just a deception of himself.
Because his portrait painting level has improved dramatically, it is because he has obtained "Elle Sauce Brand Special Paint". It has nothing to do with the customers he chooses.
If he really just wanted to paint better, why did he choose to paint portraits of the big guys?
The answer is simple.
Although Amos's original sense of morality and reverence for the law constrained him, Amos had already prepared to threaten and curse these big people with the "soul fragments" sealed in the painting once they were discovered.
And compared to a few months ago, before Elle was pregnant.
Amos's speech and demeanor nowadays, although it seems to be a stereotypical imitation...... But the ruthless temperament on his body is becoming more and more obvious.
And in the past few months, there are not many things that can change Amos.
- For example, killing with your own hands.
After he deceived and killed a large number of homeless people, he lost patience with mortals.
…… It's like being a true transcendent.
You must know that the homeless man played by Annan did not have any out-of-the-ordinary actions from beginning to end. He is more of a "real" tramp.
How could a homeless man who couldn't even eat enough to have his stomach fed be interested in the artist's paintings?
How could he be hired to look up at the gallery curiously?
Can he read it?
- Of course not.
It is impossible for a real tramp to care about the "art of the big guys". They just want money, they just want to eat...... In addition to this, they are distrustful of anyone and alienated from society as a whole.
The homeless man played by Annan is not only not "evil". It can even be said that the group with the best temper among the homeless people.
But even he didn't get a good look from Amos.
In other words, Amos didn't have a good attitude towards these homeless people.
The reason why Amos was sure to keep the homeless man was also simple.
Because after he painted a portrait, Annan sensed a strong feeling of hunger in his body.
In other words...... It's like beating someone and then asking them if they want treatment.
If Annan is really a bum, then he will naturally not care about face at this time. Although he said before that he would not stay to eat, he was really hungry, and Amos invited again. At this time, in order to save the already small amount of money, he naturally chose to stay.
Tramps, from the very beginning, there was no choice.
After Amos set his sights on them, they had no choice but to die-
Just looking at this unceremonious, as if the assembly line work is proficient...... Annan would have known how many homeless people he had killed with this trick.
The portrait of this wall is not only the remains of an entire wall-
It is also a "magic painting" that imprisons the soul of the dead!
Annan realized.
- The senior is right.
The transcendent must be rigorously screened and educated.
Amos isn't even extraordinary!
He doesn't even have the ability to fight bullets!
If it weren't for that spell pistol, he wouldn't have been able to beat even an ordinary swordsman or wizard apprentice.
But such a mortal, just a little supernatural power, under his own uncontrollable greed, he doesn't know how many people he killed, how much chaos he caused......
His magic paintings for the big names would have an even greater impact.
If the painting is burned or physically destroyed like Annan, the original owner's soul will be weakened and his lifespan will be greatly reduced...... And if the magic painting is stolen, the consequences are even more serious - it is equivalent to the soul fragment that the other party voluntarily peels off, and falls into the hands of anyone with bad intentions, which can be used as part of the ritual, and it is entirely possible to cause a larger conspiracy.
Hardly any of these bigwigs are transcendent.
Therefore, it is very unlikely that it will be made into a magic painting for self-defense, such as the "feast of the hungry".
It's more likely that they've been stolen or stolen......
Annan felt some toothache.
This Amos ...... It's not shallow to hurt people.
He had no idea how much of a mess he would cause.
For example, forty-five years ago, the wife of Viscount Barber may have died because of this. Even Viscount Ba's choice to believe in rotten husbands may be due to the sudden death of his wife under the interference of the gods.
Because the first time Viscount Babel passed the throne of the city lord to his eldest son, the ceremony was opened forty-five years ago, the year of Amos's death.
From this point of view, Amos's quality as a-stirring stick can be said to be very strong......
Annan sighed softly as he watched Amos crouch on the ground, carefully and pretentiously framing the new painting.
He silently took out the three silver coins that Amos had given him. Two in the left hand and one in the right hand.
Then, he flicked the silver coin in his right hand lightly.
Then he spread out his right hand and aimed his palm at Amos.
Annan's eyes gradually flickered with a silver shimmer.
“…… Well? ”
Amos faintly heard the strange noise, and looked back defenselessly.
And at the moment when the silver coin spun and fell into Annan's palm.
It sped up and turned into a streamer, darting at Amos with a loud humming sound!
Amos's emerald green eyeballs suddenly wriggled twice.
His body dodged itself in a strange position, but only to avoid the vital point.
The silver coin turned into a projectile that rubbed against his right shoulder—the wound was deep enough to show his bones.
The projectile went through the shoulder and hit that wall. A large amount of smoke and dust burst out in an instant, and the room was filled with extremely sharp and piercing high-frequency noise.
"Poof!"
Although it was only scratched, Amos's body suddenly trembled violently, and a large mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of his mouth, and his pupils instantly dilated.
He leaned forward weakly.
But his emerald green eyeballs moved strangely again, and his almost fallen body suddenly stopped in the air. Like a marionette, he touched the ground with his toes and tried to stand up again with a very jerky motion......
But he didn't have that chance anymore.
After Annan used the magic "Clanging Thing", he didn't have the slightest idea of being stunned.
He immediately took a silver coin from the palm of his left hand to his right hand.
With Annan shaking his hands.
Then two slender silver swords stabbed silently from his fingers.
The one in his left hand stabbed Amos in the heart - the other sliced Amos' throat from the front.
Annan then used his free left hand to swing Amos's head backwards with a very skilful technique.
Amos's azure eyeballs had become a little gray.
But the emerald green pupils that belonged to Elle were still trembling......
Annan did not hesitate or show the slightest mercy.
With great precision, he flicked the second sword gorgeously, and then pierced the emerald green eyeball from top to bottom!
