Chapter 173: Great Transformation into a Living Person
Such an alien-shaped thing is basically out of the human form. You can tell whether it is an angel by its positioning, fresh and smooth skin color paint, and the large bright white circle behind it.
Because the many arms and legs are painted on the same plane, they have to overlap and intersect, making it difficult to count at a glance. The brush strokes are clearly highlighted and layered, and even have a sense of volume based on perspective painting, which is as real and vivid as the works in large churches.
, which shows that the author invested a lot of money in layout and details.
Of course, what may cost more is the seemingly inconspicuous sky background.
The clear and pure indigo color is very beautiful, and it probably comes from some kind of relatively precious mineral pigment. With his brain that is not very sensitive to money and art, he also knows that this kind of thing is frighteningly expensive, which is equivalent to painting the wall with gold powder.
In this seemingly inconspicuous church, even though most of the back of the altar is occupied by "figures", the remaining free area is not much smaller. To be able to squander the paint like this, Kraft probably knew that they were sucking it away
Where did the money go?
However, in such a huge painting, the structure of the limbs is not formal, twisted like a child's drawing, flexible and lacks joint expression, and varies in length. There is no boundary between the palms and wrists and ankles, and the slender fingers and toes are scattered.
Spread out, and some even emerge from the middle and upper parts of the limbs.
It is true that there are no examples of adding extra limbs to express the extraordinary power of the Holy Spirit, but this look really goes beyond the realm of innovation and enters the realm of abstraction.
It can be seen that the author is not a doodle, the brush strokes are very fair and even, but the finished product is like someone who has never seen it before. He tried hard to depict something with good skills. In the end, because he did not have a complete and clear image cognition in his mind, the painting failed.
into what you see now.
"Professor, you are indeed here."
The sound of armor walking was heard. Martin shook off the fungus debris on his blade and put the sword back into its sheath. Behind him was the parasitic body that had been cracked apart along the way.
"To be honest, I sometimes wonder, are you really afraid of anything? Maybe this is the advantage brought by knowledge?"
"Yes, it is easy for people to be afraid when they know nothing about the world." Kraft picked up a broken stone brick and threw it into the hall. It rolled all the way to the pulpit and shook off the dust.
.
There seemed to be a typical scholar's arrogance in his words, and Martin was a little surprised. This was rarely seen in Kraft, even if he did have this qualification.
"But knowing more will also create fear, and even the more you know, the more fear you will feel, and this needs a deeper understanding to fill it." Taking a step forward, he crossed the church door, and Coop hurried to follow him.
"However, the essence of the two kinds of fear is the same, both originating from the unknown. The unknown will not decrease as we know more, but will increase as the cognitive boundary expands. Perhaps they are inherently one and transform into each other.
"
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand?" Martin stood there in confusion, watching them walk for a while before he realized what they were doing and gritted his teeth to catch up.
Maybe it's because there isn't much nutrients for growth. Despite the weird scene outside, the interior of the church is quite clean. Only cloud-like fungi have grown on the backs of the chairs on both sides.
Martin was alert to the surroundings above his head, and caught up with Kraft in front of the pulpit. He was able to look up at the mural that he didn't pay much attention to at the door. The extremely twisted "angel" made people frown.
Except for these angels and the ring without wings, the interior is completely in line with the layout of a church church, and the investment is still outstanding.
Logically speaking, in an environment isolated from the outside world, there is no need to suffer the inconvenience of pretending. You can build decorations according to your own wishes, and you have the corresponding financial foundation, but the form is still copied here.
"Are they serious?"
I have been brainwashed to the point where I believe it and regard myself as the "orthodox religion".
A sacred book was placed on the pulpit, with a dry leaf bookmark tucked into the thick leather pages. Kraft twisted it several times with his gloved hands before finding the page. He only opened a corner and found that it was stuck inside.
.
With some effort, he slowly separated them. They were dried plaques that had corroded the pages and the standard handwritten scripture font. The upper part of the page had turned into mold nourishment, and the remaining strokes seemed to Craft
It can be said that the form of the sentence is correct and powerful.
The font is clear, and it can be read that this part of the content to be preached is the election of the saints.
Unfortunately, Kraft couldn't see if there was anything wrong with it. He only knew that it was another story about a chosen person who gained the ability to perform miracles after being appointed.
I tried to read a little further, and there was only half the end left. It was about him having unobstructed eyes, and using this ability, he guessed six items hidden in the box by the untrustworthy lord on the spot, which greatly surprised the other party.
Embarrassed, I regretted detaining him on the spot.
This saint had no choice but to confess to the Lord that he had used the power given by God to satisfy his selfish desires for sanctification, which was why he fell into this situation. His pious confession earned him the forgiveness of the Heavenly Father, who took action to bring him back to the kingdom of heaven.
The next day, the jailers opened the guarded cells, but the saint was no longer in them.
The implication is that ability cannot be used to show off, otherwise it will inevitably lead to disaster.
"It's very didactic, and it fits my impression of the Holy Scriptures. I'm afraid it's the real thing." Kraft commented as he separated the next page, "But...it really makes me have some bad associations.
"
"Are there many examples of escape from escape rooms in the Holy Scriptures?"
Naturally, the question went unanswered, and there was no one among the three who understood theology.
The next page was revealed, and Kraft could probably guess that this was the part where everyone would be amazed, and maybe it would also include the lord's regret and punishment.
But he didn't see the end of the story. A piece of paper that was severely corroded was stuck to the back of the page. It was not a regular scripture copy, but a note-like quill pen record.
"What is this?" He didn't dare to take it off. He carefully used a leaf bookmark to push away the uncured plaque and looked at the slightly melted writing.
One side of this paper is jagged, and it must have been torn from somewhere else. The paper is withered and yellow, much older than the holy scripture paper, and most of the handwriting does not look like the same person's, smooth and freehand.
The second half of the page is continued with missionary-style straight copy without stippling.
Even though there are many places where the meaning of the text cannot be discerned, several high-frequency words have survived due to their high frequency of occurrence. Among the intentional words, "angel" and "kingdom" are mentioned at least three times, as well as the most important word "receiver".
There were large short words arranged below, listed vertically in clusters. Craft read a few and found that they were some very common names.
It's the kind of name that a country farmer or a small citizen would pick up to make it easy to remember. It was solemnly written on this piece of paper like some kind of monument. It was swallowed up by mildew spots and submerged behind fungal velvet.
Behind many names, a dilute symbol was almost completely covered up. Fortunately, Kraft's keenness for a certain type of outline allowed him to notice it on the poor paper and not recognize it as dipping or mold staining. It was a
Symmetrical mark, the prototype is based on the human body, a smiling...
