Chapter 240 Unintentional Intervention
The area of this painting is not small.
It is more than three meters wide and about two meters high.
The canvas used is also a very high-end, very thick canvas.
When rolled up, such a painting weighs one to two hundred kilograms.
As the Western players lifted the golden cloth covering it, the vampire nobles looked at it one after another.
Si Yan also looked over.
He had never seen this painting before.
This is a group portrait painting. There are many people sitting next to a long rectangular table.
Half of these people are vampires dressed in exquisite aristocratic costumes.
The other half are those who are obviously taller than vampires.
Werewolf!
That's right, it's a werewolf!
Werewolves are also a type of monster!
Or a terrifying life that is hostile to vampires!
It can be said that the two sides are old enemies and mortal enemies.
But in this painting, werewolves and vampires dine together at the same table!
"This is...the last supper!"
At this time, a vampire exclaimed!
The last dinner party!
Si Yan's expression changed.
When he was chatting with Vladimir, he heard him mention it.
This is a very ancient and world-famous painting in the vampire world!
There is some overlap between the name and "The Last Supper" that Si Yan had before traveling through time.
The reason for this overlap is probably related to the similarities in the background and direction of the two paintings.
The Last Supper is the last supper that Jesus shared with his twelve disciples.
Jesus died soon after that.
In the vampire world, this "Last Supper" is the last dinner between vampires and werewolves.
After this dinner, just three days later, a large-scale war broke out between vampires and werewolves, and they were completely separated from each other.
This painting has a very high status in the vampire world. It can be said to be a world-famous painting in the vampire world.
It is the work of a late master vampire painter.
The level of this painting is extremely high, and it also has special meaning and status.
It was once the centerpiece of the Royal Art Gallery of the Holy City.
However, this painting was later taken away by a group of elite werewolves during a premeditated attack by werewolves.
Those werewolves seemed to have come for this painting during their attack.
After stealing the painting, the werewolves put the painting on public display in the werewolf's holy city in order to insult the vampires.
Over the past hundreds of years, countless vampire nobles have wanted to take back this painting, but there was no way.
This painting also became a regret in the hearts of vampire nobles.
And precisely because of the werewolf's theft of the painting, the status of this painting became more and more important in the hearts of the vampire nobles.
"It seems to be the Last Supper. Is this authentic?"
"If this is an authentic work, it would be of great significance. I didn't expect these people to get this painting!"
The other vampire nobles all became commotion.
In the throne room, Prince Vera's expression also changed significantly.
From being careless before, he became serious.
Her eyes also stayed on the painting.
"Is this the trump card of these guys?"
Si Yan whispered.
These Western guys actually went to the werewolf world and got this painting!
It was indeed a huge investment.
This painting was extremely closely guarded by werewolves.
It is definitely not easy for Western players to get it.
No wonder these guys are so confident.
If this painting is true, it would mean a lot to vampires.
This is equivalent to the return of a national treasure.
They gave it to Prince Vera, which naturally greatly enhanced Prince Vera's prestige.
"The last dinner! No! These guys actually got this painting! The palace master had been planning to go to the werewolf world to steal this painting before, but he wasn't very sure. I didn't expect that they would get it first."
On the other side, President He’s face of the Soul-Splitting Group has changed drastically.
"These Western guys are really prepared this time! If this painting impresses Prince Vera, they might really be able to get an SSS rating!"
President He murmured.
His mood has fallen to the extreme.
As a junior high-level member of the Soul Splitting Group, he knew this painting quite well.
Know the significance of this painting to vampires.
If this painting is true, then the West has a great chance of winning this time.
Suddenly, the faces of President He and the other Eastern players all turned ugly.
"I hope Si Yan can come up with some trump cards."
President He looked at Si Yan again.
Now, he can only place all his hopes on Si Yan.
Si Yan became the only hope to prevent these guys from evaluating SSS.
As for other means, there is no way to use them.
For example, using a call for help ticket to summon the soul-splitting group's palace master would be useless.
Even if you summon the top boss in the Eastern rankings, it will be useless.
Once the aid coupon is used, all their evaluation rewards will be cleared.
There are so many vampire nobles here, it is almost impossible to kill a few Western players by force.
What's more, these Western guys are so well prepared that there is no way they don't have the means to deal with similar crises.
Therefore, they could only count on Si Yan.
them
There is no other way!
"Your Majesty, this is a painting that our King spent a huge price to take back from the werewolf world. In order to show the respect of His Majesty and hundreds of millions of our people for His Majesty, this painting is specially dedicated to His Majesty the Prince. .”
Seeing that this painting caused a huge commotion among the vampire nobles, the leading Western player spoke again.
"As for the authenticity of this painting, His Highness the Prince can find someone to verify it in public. If it is fake, it will be replaced!"
The leading Western player said again.
On the throne, Prince Vera's eyes stayed on the painting for some time, then looked at the female officer Jesse next to her.
Jesse understood what she meant.
"Please ask Duke Vladimir and other nobles who have seen this painting to verify the authenticity of this painting."
Jesse said.
After she finished speaking, Duke Vladimir and another old Duke came out.
Immediately afterwards, several more vampire nobles also came out, ready to verify the authenticity with them.
Si Yan was observing Prince Vera.
He was keenly aware that Prince Vera was very interested in this painting.
Doesn't seem to be that caring.
But what is the status of this painting in the hearts of vampire nobles.
If it is true, it is still very meaningful to Prince Vera.
These Western guys can also gain favor from a wave of vampire nobles.
They will use other methods later. It is really possible for them to get the SSS evaluation this time.
In front of the oil painting, Prince Vladimir was still looking at it carefully.
Although he hasn't spoken yet, judging from his expression, there is a high possibility that this painting is real.
After observing for some more time, Duke Vladimir came to a conclusion.
"Your Highness, this painting is real."
Prince Vladimir said.
Several other vampire nobles who came out for identification also spoke one after another.
After hearing the confirmation of these vampire nobles, the Western players headed by them already had a look in their eyes.
The other vampire nobles in the surrounding area were all even more commotion.
The return of this ancient famous painting is of great significance to these vampire nobles.
"Your Highness, our King sent out a large number of people to rob this painting from the werewolf's holy city, just to present it to His Highness the Prince to show the sincerity of our King's friendship."
The leading Western player said respectfully to Prince Vera on the throne.
As long as this painting can get them the initial approval of Prince Vera.
If they continue to exert their efforts in the future, they will be confident enough to get the complete approval of Prince Vera.
After this copy has reached this point, and with the influence of this painting, they are sure to gain the friendship of some other vampire nobles.
At this point, the SSS evaluation is complete.
"gentlemen."
At this time, Virginia's quiet voice sounded from beside Si Yan.
Si Yan looked at Virginia.
There was something strange about Virginia's expression.
"What's wrong, Virginia?"
Si Yan asked.
Virginia came over and said in an extremely small voice: "Teacher, this painting seems to have been painted by me."
"Did you draw it?"
Si Yan couldn't help but be startled.
Was this painting painted by Virginia?
Virginia nodded and continued in a very small voice: "In order to improve my painting skills, I chose some famous paintings to imitate. This painting was imitated by me a month and a half ago. After imitating it, it was bought by someone. .”
"Now it seems that the person who bought it was probably someone who had connections with the werewolf and sold the painting to the werewolf. The werewolf saw that the painting was too similar to the original, so he replaced the original."
"Do you have any way to prove it?"
Si Yan asked.
Virginia said: "Yes, the canvas I used is very thick. I uncovered two layers of canvas in the lower right corner, and there is an extremely subtle signature of mine underneath."
After hearing Virginia's words, Si Yan suddenly felt that this matter became interesting.
Virginia's talent for painting was naturally taught by Si Yan.
As mentioned before, vampires have their own pursuits in art and life.
Therefore, when Si Yan came to see Virginia, he would always change his profession to a trick artist and teach Virginia by the way.
Could it be.
