Chapter 3447 Achromia(2/2)
The thickness of the book is also within the normal range. According to visual inspection, it should be between 80 and 100 pages.
Because the display cabinet isolated the inspection, Angel could only see the outer skin. And the outer skin really had no clues and could not see any doubts.
Angel shook his head, retracted his gaze, and turned to look at the introduction to "The Art of Blackness" on the crystal screen.
As soon as he read the first sentence, Angel's pupils shrank suddenly.
"The Art of Blackness, by Odorus."
Just seeing the author's name, Angel immediately understood that his guess was correct.
"The Art of Blackness" is indeed a work by the Deathists!
Because Odorus is the most famous representative of the Death Sect, and it can even be said that he can be regarded as the Holy Son of the Death Sect! Not only did he deeply understand the truth of the Death Sect's alchemy, but he also created the unprecedented Siyuan
The art of body.
He pushed the Death Sect's alchemy to the top of the alchemy world at that time.
In the alchemical world at that time, whenever the Death Sect was mentioned, Odorus would almost immediately come to mind!
Therefore, there is no doubt that when Angel saw that the author of "The Art of Blackness" was Odorus, and the title of the book was related to "black", he basically didn't run away.
This must be a work handed down by the Deathists.
Angel suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to look at the introduction on the screen.
However, there is not much introduction at the end, especially compared with "Mond's Color Palette", it seems shabby.
To sum it up in three sentences.
The first sentence introduces Odorus, who bluntly states that he is a master of alchemy who dominates countless geniuses. Especially in shaping the appearance of alchemical works, he has his own set of unique artistic techniques and can be called the "Master of Beauty"
.
After Angel read this introduction to Odorus, he personally felt that the first sentence was more credible. The "Master of Beauty" that followed was probably just from the original auction of the book "The Art of Blackness".
The seller specially sealed it to express the word "art".
Angel has many alchemy notes of the Death Sect, and he also introduced Odorus in them. However, these introductions only mentioned his explanation of "black", "death" and "rebirth", and never mentioned "
beautiful".
Because for anyone who has reached the level of an alchemist master, his cultivation of "beauty" is already included in his status as a "master" and will not be mentioned deliberately.
The second sentence introduces the general content of "The Art of Blackness".
This is similar to what was recorded in the invitation letter Luigi received. To put it simply, it contains the secrets of alchemy, but it mostly focuses on shape shaping and Odorus's personal aesthetic and artistic views.
It is basically impossible to learn alchemy through "The Black Art".
The third sentence is... a riddle.
"It is said that there are secrets hidden in the Art of Blackness.——This statement comes from the auctioneer of the Tooth Fairy Ancient Ruins. Whether it is true or not is unknown."
This sentence is most likely just a marketing tool, or a marketing password, deliberately spoken by the auctioneer. Books with secrets will definitely attract more people's attention and fetch higher prices.
Of course, it is also possible that "The Art of Darkness" really contains secrets, just like "Journey to the Umbrella".
However, since the Jingmu clan specifically added the sentence "This quote comes from the auctioneer" after getting the book, it means that they did not find the secret after reading the book.
Otherwise, they wouldn't deliberately leave this row of introductions.
Because the introduction on the screen was very small and could be read at a glance, it didn't take long for Angel and Laplace to communicate in the psychic tether.
"What do you think of this book?" Laplace looked at Angel.
"A bit interested." Angel didn't hide his inner thoughts this time.
After all, this is a work by the Death Sect, and the author is Odorus, the most representative figure of the Death Sect. Even if the book only introduces "art", Angel is very interested in it.
"However, although I am interested, I am not impatient yet." When Angel said this, he was also telling Laplace that there was no need to think about giving up "The Starry Sky Book".
