Soul Painter

The World's Strongest Martial Arts Tournament.

After all, it was still not successful.

It was PASS at Lawrence.

This is not a question of money, but involves a lot of energy, manpower and material resources.

After all, Lawrence is just a gallery owner, and he has no way to help Gao Fan complete the grand scene he wants to gather the strongest human beings in the world.

However, Lawrence got a compromise plan, which could satisfy both him and Gao Fan, so Lawrence hurried to New York the next day.

In New York, Lawrence met Hollein, director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

In the director's office of the 150-year-old Metropolitan Museum, Hollein welcomed Lawrence's intentions. As the new director, who was described as "excellent in building collections and organizing exhibitions," Hollein forged ahead I very much hope that Gao Fan, as the most outstanding painter in the new era, will hold a solo exhibition here.

This is not the first contact between Lawrence and Hollein. The last time Hollein bought two of Gao Fan's "Mask" themed paintings, they can be regarded as old friends.

However, Hollein expressed a certain degree of confusion about Gao Fan's weird request relayed by Lawrence.

"I've never heard of such a request. Gao Fan doesn't have any works now, but he wants to open a solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum." Huo Laiyin asked, "Is this a joke?"

"It's not a joke, I'm sorry, Gao Fan's first work is being created, and it will be placed in the New York Museum after we finish the negotiation, but the second, third, and even more works in the future , it depends on the number of views of the first work." Lawrence said.

"The Metropolitan Museum has about 7 million visitors a year, and 20,000 people walk into this great museum every day. If Mr. Gao Fan is worried that his works will not be appreciated, then he can rest assured." Hollein said Displeased.

"It is precisely because of the great reputation and attraction of the Metropolitan Museum in the eyes of the world that Gao Cai did not choose other museums, but chose to negotiate with you. In fact, if his requirements are not met, then he intends to rent the Empire State Building To put his exhibits... that's a crazy idea, isn't it?" Lawrence smiled wryly.

"May I ask, what is the theme of Mr. Gao Fan's solo exhibition? How many works does he expect to create to complete this solo exhibition?" Hollein asked curiously.

"The strongest on the surface (The strongest)." Lawrence said, "As for the number, there is no upper limit for now."

...

When Lawrence was negotiating with the Metropolitan Museum for a solo exhibition without a single work.

Gao Fan has already begun to create the first work.

He calculated his spare SAN value.

The quantity is not too much.

The two theme paintings displayed in the Metropolitan Museum will provide Gao Fan with a SAN value of 1.2 points from time to time.

Others acquired by private collectors are basically in a state of 'hibernation', with little recurring income.

As for why Gao Fan judged that these SAN values ​​are all from the exhibits of the Metropolitan Museum, because when they arrive, it is the daytime in New York, when the Metropolitan Museum is open. At night, the system falls into silence and there is no harvest.

Currently, Gaofan's idle SAN value is 23 points.

At the current stage, only 30 points of spare SAN value can increase 1 point of mysticism, and this point of SAN value is not enough for 1 point of mysticism.

His occult is 34 points.

Contact with the "One Who Turns All Things into One" increased by 3 points, and a little understanding of the "One and Only Old God" increased by 1 point.

To draw the souls of human beings or other creatures into his hall of inspiration, occultism is a necessary consumption, but the dye of 'infinity' is not necessary, the function of 'infinity' is a super medium, and multiple souls can be drawn into one Portraits can influence audiences through the Internet or even repeated printing.

If you only paint a portrait of a single person, the three elements of occultism, world, and distortion are enough.

That is the previous formula: (distortion + world) X mystery.

Previously, Gao Fan used 15,000 points of occultism to draw 100,000 Bostno people, radiate 600,000 people, and affect 3 million people. Although the city of Bostno in the palace of inspiration was established, the over-diluted mystery also made these citizens seem like phantoms. main combat power.

Now that Gao Fan wants to defeat the Spider Girl on the moon, he needs more powerful fighters.

Using occultism to portray human beings consumes a lot of energy. This is why Gao Fan commissioned Lawrence to negotiate with the Metropolitan Museum of New York and open a solo exhibition. If it really doesn’t work, Gao Fan really intends to rent the Empire State Building, at least one of the floors. Come to display my upcoming 'The Strongest Surface' series of paintings.

All beginnings are hard.

Gao Fande started to snowball, he needed more visitors, harvested more sanity, converted it into more mystic skills, and then used mystics to draw more inspired warriors.

The reason why I chose New York instead of Gaofan's "Promised Land" Bostno was because, in addition to the flow of people, all the citizens in the city of Bostno were Gaofan's resources. Where there is a reduction in the mysterious quantity, this kind of self-poaching is unwise.

Gao Fan needs to create a work.

The first work of the "Strongest Surface" painting exhibition.

Gao Fan intends to devote more mysticism into it.

At least 10 points.

Then its soul projection in Gaofan's inspiration will be more than a thousand times stronger than that of ordinary Bostno citizens.

It's exciting to hear.

Although a shadow is a thousand times stronger, it may not be much stronger...

As for the objects depicted.

Gao Fan's choice is...God.

This is Gao Van's second portrait of God.

The last time it was a failed work, after being denied by Lu Guoying, it was shoveled by Gao Fan on the spot.

This time, Gao Fan decided to use the highest technique to create another portrait of the black cat. If successful, God will become the eternal guardian in the world inspired by Gao Fan.

It's like the black panther of the dark ranger Drizzt Do'Urden (the main character of El Salvador's "Dark Elf" trilogy, who is good at wielding two swords).

This idea excited Gao Fan.

"You will be my patron saint." Gao Fan said to God.

Meow~ God straightened his chest.

In the 'distorted' vision, God gradually transformed into a leopard with satin-colored fur and strong muscles surging like flowing water.

Creation in progress...

...

a week later.

Lawrence, who was still in New York, received Gao Fan's first painting on the theme of "The Strongest Surface" from Bostno.

It was a painting measuring 1.2 by 1.6 meters. After admiring it, Lawrence had a nightmare all night, and brought the painting tube to Hollein's office the next day.

Although Hollein is busy with official duties, as an art lover, he is still full of curiosity about Gao Fan's new works. Together with several art consultants, he waited for Lawrence's new works in his spacious office as if welcoming a Christmas present. Arrived, and when Lawrence unfolded the painting in front of them, everyone fell into a strange silence.
