120: Chapter 119 The Art Museum's Derivative Scroll
Daxi City is adjacent to Dadong City. Because Lin Chuan was traveling using his Ghost Domain, he did not spend much time before arriving in the urban area of Daxi City.
He had no leisure to admire the scenery of Daxi City. Following the stolen memories, he spent some time and arrived downstairs at the Eternal Life Club.
That's right, the Eternal Life Club was not some secret, small workshop. Instead, it was exposed to the public and was a famous club bar.
"This Eternal Life Club is certainly not low-key..."
Looking at the Eternal Life Club, with its bustling nightlife and the appearance of a normal bar, a strange look flashed in Lin Chuan's eyes, but it quickly dissipated.
He didn't linger downstairs for too long, nor did he walk in normally. His shallow Ghost Domain enveloped the entire building, and in an instant, Lin Chuan sensed two supernatural auras and one place that he could not penetrate.
Whoosh. With a flash of his figure, he appeared directly on the top floor of the club.
As for those two supernatural senses, he didn't need to think to know they were Ghost Controllers. However, he had no time to pay attention to them; it wouldn't be too late to deal with them later.
What was important right now was the backup plan locked inside this top floor.
According to his memories, he walked to a place where a vase was placed. Click, click. With a gentle turn, the bookshelf in front suddenly separated on its own, revealing a combination door that looked like a safe.
Because he had the memories, Lin Chuan did not spend any effort opening this safe. What came into view was a small gold cabinet.
Inside were three things: two gold boxes and a scroll emanating a cold, supernatural aura.
Needless to say, those two gold boxes must be imprisoning ghosts. Lin Chuan knew this as well. Only the rolled-up scroll caught his eye.
"This is it. Judging from the level of supernatural terror, it doesn't seem low."
Ghost Dream Hair wrapped around his palm, and he just took the scroll out directly. Although he hadn't opened the scroll, Lin Chuan could still instinctively sense that the terrifying supernatural power within it was not weak.
However, he had come specifically for this scroll, so he did not hesitate. He first layered his Ghost Domain, expanding it to a deep level. Then, with a 'swish,' he opened the scroll.
On the scroll was a painting of a stunning woman in red, with European architecture in the background. Looking at it as a whole, it looked like a beautiful painting from an Art Gallery.
"Hmm?" Just looking at it, Lin Chuan didn't feel anything. But suddenly, he discovered that the woman on the scroll had moved.
Originally, the woman in red had her face turned to the side. But because it seemed he was watching, the woman in red turned over. A pair of pale, desolate eyes, devoid of any living brilliance, stared straight at him!
"It actually triggered a killing pattern..." In his consciousness, the human skin book had already displayed familiar handwriting.
Apparently, just looking at this scroll had triggered the ghost's killing pattern. Simply put, this scroll was a ghost.
Fortunately, Lin Chuan was not panicked at all. If nothing else, he possessed terrifying supernatural powers. Even if the ghost came, it was uncertain who would end up in trouble!
Sizzle. The lights flickered, and at the same time, his moonlight Ghost Domain was abruptly invaded. Clusters of gray paper ash drifted down.
"This is... a Ghost Painting?! What kind of joke is this!?"
Originally, Lin Chuan didn't care, but when he realized his own Ghost Domain had been affected, he couldn't remain calm. And when he saw clearly that what was falling was gray paper ash, his eyes, which should have been devoid of emotion, now held a hint of horror!
A beautiful scroll, falling paper ash... Isn't this the characteristic of the Ghost Painting from Mystery of the supernatural?
Who could tell him what was going on in this world? Why would this kind of ghost appear? Isn't this a ghost from the Mystery of the supernatural world?
Various thoughts surged, and Lin Chuan's consciousness kept turning. First, he could be sure that this world was definitely not Mystery of the supernatural.
Secondly, this suspected Ghost Painting ghost reminded him of a file Liu Jiajia had sent him at the time. In that information, there was information about an S-class supernatural event codenamed 'Art Gallery'. And this scroll seemed to be related to that Art Gallery.
"Damn it! I've been tricked!" Associating all these things, Lin Chuan instantly realized. He had been tricked; this was definitely not the work of 'The Painter'. Instead, it was the trigger for the S-class supernatural event codenamed 'Art Gallery' from Europe.
Simply put, this thing was the fuse to lure the source ghost over. Opening it had clearly fallen into the trap set by the European Union Headquarters.
They must have anticipated various situations long ago; even Kevin's memory was a trap. A trap set by the European Union Headquarters to lure away the 'Art Gallery' supernatural event!
"I cannot let this thing come over!" Although he guessed that this scroll was not the source of the 'Art Gallery' supernatural event, Lin Chuan understood that as long as he let the woman in the scroll walk out, it would certainly lure the source ghost from Europe over.
He couldn't guarantee what would happen then. It was true that, as he was now, he didn't fear an S-class supernatural event. But to let him face it for no reason, and to let the European Ghost Controller Union Headquarters succeed, he would never allow it!
Rustle, rustle. Ghost Dream Hair, overlapping and entering the dream. Without holding back at all, in just a few seconds, it was infinitely stacked! The infinite dream was formed instantly!
The entire scroll disappeared, pulled into the infinite dream. At the same time, for the sake of caution, the Oblivion Ghost's oblivion supernatural power also briefly increased its supernatural intensity...
In the infinitely deep dream, the stunning woman in the scroll seemed to fall into a daze. The pair of hands that had reached out at some unknown time were now gradually retracting. There was no need to think to know that Lin Chuan's supernatural power had taken effect.
After nearly two seconds, the supernatural power of that scroll returned to its original state!
"Derivative scroll..." Putting away his supernatural power, Lin Chuan held the already rolled-up scroll in his hand, and a thoughtful look appeared on his pale, bloodless corpse-like face.
To be taken down by him in a second or two, if this weren't a derivative, it wouldn't make sense. This was just like the Blood Lake; if the source ghost of the Blood Lake attacked, he would never be able to solve it easily, at most falling into a stalemate.
Of course, the terror level of the Blood Lake should be much higher than the so-called 'Art Gallery' supernatural event. But regardless, he had managed to prevent the European side from succeeding.
It was just that he didn't know how many such derivative scrolls there were. Were there any more in the hands of other foreign Ghost Controller forces that had infiltrated the Xia Kingdom?
"Whatever, if they really invaded this side, it wasn't caused by me." After a long while, Lin Chuan shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.
Anyway, for now, he had not let the European side's plan succeed. If other Ghost Controllers let them succeed, then that would have nothing to do with him.
In the future, he probably wouldn't encounter it. Just thinking about it, Lin Chuan felt it was necessary to perform a 'Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Calamity'. Anyway, he still had three chances for 'Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Calamity' today, so he might as well use them.
Soon, he activated 'Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Calamity'...
