Curator Maia carefully watched every part of the stone sculpture 'Awakening from a Dream' without saying a word, as if enchanted.
"Boss Yale, it's been two full hours." Renault took a pocket watch from his pocket and said.
Yale shook his head and said softly: "Don't worry, let Uncle Maier take a closer look. Since Uncle Maier is the chief curator of the Prox, he must be the descendant of Master Prox, and I believe his taste level is sure. Very high. I don't know what level the third child's work has reached."
Reno also nodded slightly.
It took nearly three hours for Curator Maier to straighten up and let out a sigh of relief.
"I heard that this stone sculpture is called 'Dream Awakening'?" Curator Maia asked.
Yale nodded and said, "Yes, the third son named it himself."
Curator Maier nodded lightly, then took a good look at the stone sculpture 'Dream Awakening', and said with admiration, "I have to say, your brother 'Lin Lei' is definitely a genius in the stone carving world, it can be said that he is comparable to ordinary The genius of Master Roux."
"Although there is a slight gap between his works and Master Proux in terms of strokes and carvings, in terms of the soul of the works, he definitely catches up." Curator Maier exclaimed.
"Stroke engraving?" Yale wondered.
Curator Maier nodded and said, "Yes, but this work has a few flaws, but it also has amazing advantages."
"The flaw is that the handling of some concave and convex surfaces and soft curves is slightly lacking. But your Linley Brothers' works are very coherent as a whole, and the visual effect is definitely comparable to several works by Master Prox. On top of that, the piece is huge."
Curator Maier sighed: "A work that has been handed down from time to time requires astonishing painstaking effort in every place, and one carelessness may lead to the failure of the entire work. It is very rare to be able to carve a human-shaped stone sculpture. Lin Lei carved it out. Five pieces. The most admirable is the five works and five souls, and the meaning is coherent. If I am right, your brother Linley should have experienced a lovelorn."
With the eyes of the curator of Maia, it is natural to see what these five stone sculptures mean.
"Waking up from a dream, it's really amazing to be able to carve such a work." Curator Maia had to praise a few more times.
"Curator Maia, what level do you think my brother Linley's works are? Can they catch up with the works of Master Prox?" Renault asked aloud.
Curator Maier frowned: "Actually, I'm a little unsure. Let me tell you this, the carving level of this work can only be regarded as a master level, but it is comparable to Master Proux in terms of coherence. But there is one point. The most special-"
"The carving strokes of this work are very crisp and neat. The five stone carving works from the beginning to the end can be said to be a perfect whole. The style of carving is unique, which I have never heard of before, and I have never seen it before." Maier Pavilion Long exclaimed.
Yale also eagerly said, "Uncle Maier, what level is this work?"
Curator Maier reluctantly said: "I can't be sure. From the traditional evaluation method, this work should be regarded as a master-level work. At least there is no doubt about the unique spirit of the charm. expressed."
"Traditional evaluation methods?" Yale and Reynolds looked at Curator Maier in confusion.
Curator Maier nodded and said, "The traditional method of tasting has been recognized for countless years. But I feel... Linley's work, when viewed, is very perfect. I can't feel anything lacking. place."
"The existence of stone carvings is originally for people to watch. The viewing effect determines everything. It can be said that Linley may not be called a master of stone carvings, but the price of this work is likely to be high enough to catch up with the top ten stone carvings." Curator Maia laughed.
Not a master of stone carving, but stone carving works can be included in the 'Top Ten Stone Carvings', which is indeed an unprecedented strange thing.
But Curator Maier has to admit that this is likely to happen.
"Oh." Yale and Renault nodded.
In fact, this is a shortcoming of the flat knife style carving. After all, using a flat knife alone is not as good as some special tools when carving some smooth curves on concave and convex surfaces. Perhaps the effect of lei's use of a 'flat knife' is comparable to that of ordinary stone carving masters.
However, compared with stone carving masters, the stroke handling is somewhat lacking.
The flat knife genre also has its advantages. For example, in terms of 'continuity', there are... Other people's carving is to constantly change tools, but the carving of the flat knife style requires the 'earth magician' to integrate the world and the world to carve. This kind of carving can increase the spiritual power growth instead.
"Where's Linley himself?" Curator Maia asked.
Yale shook his head and said, "The third one is a magician after all. He still spends most of his time cultivating. He should still be doing penance in the Mountains of Warcraft. I don't know when he will come back."
"Then, Yale, can you promise for Linley that I will sell this work at the Proxima Hall?" Curator Maia suggested.
"No." Yale said simply, "I can't make a decision without the consent of the third child."
Curator Maier frowned and continued: "What about the exhibition? It shouldn't be a big problem for us to exhibit at the Prukers Hall. After all, Linley's past stone sculptures were all sold at the exhibition at the Prokis Hall. ."
Yale knew very well what this work meant to Linley.
This represented a painful relationship in the past for Lin Lei, and it was hard to say whether Lin Lei agreed to take it out for the exhibition. He didn't want Lin Lei to be embarrassed.
"No, I'm only responsible for keeping it. As for the exhibition, selling, etc., I'll talk about it when the third child comes back." Yale said loudly.
…
Among the monster mountains.
For the real two months, Linley had been concentrating on the 'Purple Blood' soft sword. The 'Purple Blood' soft sword was the best weapon Lin Lei had ever seen. Its sharpness alone would not be able to resist the average level 6 beast. live. The sharpness is only a small feature of the 'Purple Blood' soft sword.
The point of the Purple Blood Soft Sword is that it can be soft or hard, it is extremely fast, and it contains evil spirits.
Yes, it's evil.
This is what Linley discovered when he killed some monsters with this 'purple blood' soft sword. The special material of this soft sword with purple blood should contain a kind of strange power. suffocating.
This evil spirit is very similar to Longwei. Of course, it is not as terrifying as Longwei, but in battle, this suffocation can have a very good effect.
In the dark night, among the hundreds of wind wolves in the World of Warcraft Mountains, each of the wind wolves stared at Linley with their green eyes, frantically roaring one by one to kill Linley one by one. Linley, on the other hand, was walking among the wolves as fast and graceful as the blowing wind, and in his hand was a long sword with a cyan halo.
After the Purple Blood Divine Sword was infused with wind magic power, the Divine Sword's speed became faster, and the trajectory of the Divine Sword became more and more erratic when it was swung, and the wind was no resistance at all.
"call!"
In the dark night, a violet with a cyan halo flashed rapidly, and the trajectory was erratic and strange. Every time it flashed, one or two wind wolves were directly split in half. The wind wolves are only level four monsters. Among the hundreds of wind wolves, the slightly stronger ones are only level five, and the two wind wolf leaders are only level six.
Linley was in human form at the moment, possessing the power of a sixth-level warrior.
In fact, let alone a sixth-level warrior, even if a seventh-level warrior fights with hundreds of wind wolves, it is estimated that he would not dare. After all, a hero can't stand a lot of people. The claws of the wind wolf are very sharp. Even if Linley's body was caught with a single claw, he would probably bleed. Unless you enter the 'Dragonized' state.
"Roar!" A wind wolf jumped up at high speed and opened its bloody mouth.
"call out!"
The Purple Blood Divine Sword flashed, and the wind wolf was directly divided into two from the forehead to the tail.
"My Purple Blood Divine Sword may have trouble slicing the raptor, but I can cut you..." The Purple Blood Divine Sword in Linley's hand became more and more swift and agile.
Wind wolves are frightening because they are fast and they are numerous. If ten wind wolves are biting from all around at the same time, even a seventh-level warrior can hardly block all ten wind wolves, and can only rely on fighting spirit to resist.
lei is different.
"Hey!" The Purple Blood Divine Sword just flickered, and the eight wind wolves that rushed at the same time were divided into two.
The speed of the Purple Blood Divine Sword was so fast that all the wind wolves who were fast could only see the afterimage of the Purple Blood Divine Sword. Finally scared.
They are not afraid of death, but they will not do a meaningless death.
"Ow~~" The two wind wolves who had been hiding behind them raised their heads and roared angrily. All the wind wolves howled in a low voice, and immediately retreated quickly. The grief and indignation of the wind wolves came from a distance. It was obvious that this time his companions had suffered too many casualties, and they had gained nothing.
Linley had a building in his hand, a purple shadow flashed, and the Purple Blood Divine Sword wrapped around Linley's waist.
"To deal with them, you don't even need to use the true attack power of 'Purple Blood'." Linley's robe had traces of blood on it, which was the blood of the wind wolf.
In the slaughter of the follower wolves, Linley's Purple Blood Sword was straight from start to finish. To deal with the wolves, 'fast' and 'sharp' alone are enough to deal with. And once the 'Purple Blood' Divine Sword is sometimes straight and sometimes tortuous, its attack power will be several times higher.
"Boss, you are getting better and better." Beibei jumped on Linley's shoulder excitedly.
Linley smiled: "You're not weak either."
Taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, Linley looked around the surrounding beast mountain range, and then looked at the three parcels on his shoulders. In the past two months, another effect of Lin Lei's research on the use of the 'Purple Blood' Divine Sword was that Lin Lei had a magic crystal core filled with three packages.
"It's been two months, and my attack power using 'Purple Blood' has temporarily reached a bottleneck. If I want to increase it, I can only increase my arm strength and wrist strength."
In the past two months, Linley has been doing research on drawing swords, drawing swords, stabbing, cutting, chopping, and picking. The goal of Linley's research is to be faster. Try to be the fastest. Coupled with Linley's understanding of the elements of the wind element, Linley was able to better comprehend the mystery of swordsmanship.
Hundreds of wind wolves were besieging them just now, but Lin Lei couldn't be hurt at all. This was the result.
And in the past, Linley didn't even dare to think that he could do this.
"When the bottleneck is reached, it is useless to stay in the Warcraft Mountains, so go back first."
…
In the morning, the rising sun shone on the earth, and with a soft sword of purple blood wrapped around his waist, three magic spar wraps on his back, and wearing a blue robe stained with a trace of blood, Linley walked to the gate of Ernst College. , while Beibei is standing on his shoulders.
"Finally back." Linley felt a burst of tranquility when he saw the Ernst School of Magic.
Ernst School of Magic and Warcraft Mountain are completely two extremes. No one dares to kill indiscriminately here, and the atmosphere is very good. But in the World of Warcraft Mountains is a world of Warcraft, the strong are respected, and the weak will be eliminated. Killing moments can happen.
"It's Linley." The gatekeeper of the Ernst Magic Academy naturally knew Linlei, a famous academy, and naturally wouldn't stop him.
Linley nodded slightly to the guard, and then entered the Ernst School of Magic. Walking on the streets of the academy, many Ernst students who had already gone to class started talking to each other in a low voice when they saw Linley.
"It's Linley, look, he still has blood on his body. He must have just returned from the Warcraft Mountains. I heard that he went to the Warcraft Mountains last year, and he didn't even participate in the test at the end of last year. It's been four months. It's amazing to be in the mountains for four months."
"Dixie passed the test at the end of last year and reached the sixth-level magician, but Linley didn't take the test."
…
Listening to those mutterings, Linley just smiled and walked towards his dormitory. At this time, Yale, Reynolds, and George were coming out to eat breakfast.
"Ah, the third one, you're back." Renault was the first to shout excitedly.
Yale, George, and Renault rushed over excitedly, while Linley looked at his three brothers with a smile.
