Extraordinary Pedigree.

Chapter 176 Choice

The process of taking the painting is actually very simple, at least Xia Xiu really thinks so. At this time, he has slipped into the monitoring room without a sound. Passed out and put it at the door.

"Aha--"

The security guard in charge of monitoring couldn't help stretching on his office chair, and while the other was stretching, Xia Xiu stood behind him, and when he lazily put down his hand, Xia Xiu's The hand knife had landed on the carotid sinus of his side neck.

The security guard's blood pressure plummeted, and he passed out from lack of blood to his brain.

After knocking out the security personnel, Xia Xiu unhurriedly began to delete some surveillance videos, and then disconnected all the monitors around the second floor.

puff-

"nailed it."

When the content of the last screen went black, Xia Xiu stood up and patted his hands.

"Jam should have taken care of the patrol, and Valente should have taken care of the siren."

Xia Xiu walked towards the hall where "Eternal Smile" was stored on the second floor. When he arrived at his destination, Valente just appeared here.

"It's all done." Valente asked first.

"Well, everything has been dealt with, and the rest is to get the painting." Xia Xiu nodded and replied.

Afterwards, both of them looked at the "Eternal Smile" embedded in the wall at the same time. The soft light from around the glass cover was enough for them to see every detail in the picture clearly.

When you look at this painting, you will feel amazing. Before this famous painting, no matter from which angle you look at it, her gentle eyes are always looking at you with a smile, which is very vivid, as if she is beside you.

Both Xia Xiu and Valente stood in front of the painting and watched quietly for a while.

"Abraham, what do you think of this painting?" Valente asked Xia Xiu who was reaching for the painting.

"According to my observation, her smile contains 83% happiness, 9% disgust, 6% fear, and 2% anger." Xia Xiu who took off the painting replied casually.

After listening to Xia Xiu's comment, Valente was stunned for a moment. At this time, Xia Xiu had already taken the painting and left. He looked at the back of the other party and shook his head with a smile.

"This guy is really..."

"Follow up quickly." Xia Xiu turned around and urged the laughing Valente.

"coming."

Valente quickly kept pace with the other.

Inside the painting gallery of the Louvre.

"Meow, I saw a lot of people stacked together meow."

This is the first sentence that Snow Boy said after seeing Valente and Xia Xiu. At this time, there are towers of people who have been knocked out everywhere in the Louvre, and the two people who have heard this sentence He couldn't help looking at Jam who was lying on the side.

"Sure enough, there is a dog for every kind of owner." Valente glanced at Cam, who was wagging his tail and pretending to be innocent, and said.

"I don't agree with what you said. This is obviously his own bad taste. I don't take the blame for it." Xia Xiu symbolically stretched out his leg and kicked Jiamu lightly.

After a short play, they changed the topic to the main topic. Since the two of them came in, Snow Child's big eyes were aiming at this direction intentionally or unintentionally. She looks the same as when a child received a gift. , obviously caring about the gift in the hands of the adults, but pretending to be careless.

"Want to look at the painting?" Xia Xiu looked like a funny adult at this moment.

"Meow, I want to see it!" Snow Boy nodded excitedly.

Xia Xiu put "Eternal Smile" away, and then he slowly took off the white cloth covering the portrait under the expectant gaze of Snow Boy.

"Meow!"

When he saw the portrait, the snow boy's breath-holding nostrils finally stretched out.

The snow child is watching "Eternal Smile" with light steps: an elegant woman is sitting on a semicircular wooden chair, behind her is a railing, which separates the figure from the background.

When Snow Child looks directly at the woman's mouth in the painting, she will feel that she is not smiling; but when she looks into her eyes and feels the shadow of her cheek, she will feel that she is smiling.

Amazing painting, the human who drew this painting is definitely a genius!

"How is it? Does it look good?" Xia Xiu said to the somewhat fascinated Snow Child.

"Meow, it's so pretty." Snow Child recovered from her obsession, and she nodded at Xia Xiu.

"Meow, the paintings in the painting hall are actually comparable to this painting, but its conception is different from the paintings here."

Xuehai looked at the painting and said obsessively. Both Xia Xiu and Valente noticed it. When Xuehai saw "Eternal Smile", her bright and big eyes flashed with satisfaction, and her figure began to exude A burst of fluorescence.

The snow boy's figure began to become somewhat transparent.

"The Louvre Museum of Painting does contain paintings by many famous artists, but the wheel of the times is always moving forward. There are actually more than these excellent paintings. There are many excellent genres outside, and there are many amazing paintings." Valente on the side spoke.

While Valente was talking, he had already walked up to the snow boy and squatted down. He stroked the snow boy's head, and said to the snow boy sincerely:

"The outside world is very big. Outside the Louvre is Huadu, and outside Huadu is Fran, and Fran still has Youyang and the world."

"Outside the vast world, you have countless options."

Valente's performance today is different from usual, he is too active now, and Xia Xiu is just watching quietly from the sidelines.

[God's Perspective] stated: Snow Child has a chance, a chance to get rid of the bondage, and this is also a choice for her; the [Dragon Slayer] who has the [Barumuk Holy Sword] can cut off the bondage The shackles of the spirit, and to cut off the shackles requires both sides to love each other.

[God's Perspective] Although it is like a task issuer in nature, its essence is only the embodiment of [The Crimson King]'s destiny narrative ability, it does not actually put forward the task requirements, and it has never been true in any sentence mentioned that [Mercy] can be achieved by helping the snow child to be free.

The so-called eight virtues, the more they relate to the virtues of human nature, the more abstract the conditions they refer to.

[Compassion]: To sympathize with the weak, the knight must have a broad and tolerant heart, and justice in the heart should be the code of conduct for the knight.

What kind of behavior is considered to satisfy the righteous code of conduct in the heart?
Valente Bernard is now facing such a problem.

Valente and Xia Xiu actually noticed a problem before taking the painting. The Snow Child is too pure, she is just like Snow White.

The painting gallery of the Louvre is everything to Snow Boy, but the outside world is strange to her.

Valente and Xia Xiu told her that if you don't go out, you will die.

But what is death to the snow boy?
Snow Child has not received death education, she has not seen the passing of life, she has not experienced pain.

Is death a disease?
It seems not, because no one seems to have had this disease, and no one has told what this disease is, and those distorted beings who "resurrected from the dead" seem to have never been in contact with death, they are just monsters, and they don't know death.

"Meow, choose..."

The snow child who was gradually dissipating looked up at Valente, she saw the pity in the other's eyes, and the snow child rubbed his face against the other's hand.

"Haven't human beings never collapsed in fear of living in infinite choices?"

Snow Child looked directly at Valente Bernard and said.

"The vast world has everything, but there is no end... There is no end at all."

"There is a world on your body, and you don't even know where it will end, but can you accept the end calmly?"

"Too many choices, too complicated judgments, it's painful."

Facing Snow Boy's question, Valente fell silent.

"It's not what I see that stops me, it's what I can't see."

"The meaning of my existence is this painting gallery, the outside world is too big."

Xuebai is clear about her choice, just as fate is clearly visible in front of her.

All things are burdened by the world, which is the fate of all things, Snow Child rejected this fate, she chose to be pure.

The snow boy's figure began to become a little bit of light, and now, it was another choice in front of Valente Bernard.

Take out the [Balumuk Holy Sword] to cut off the fate of death, or respect the death of Snow Boy.

Valente shook hands, he wanted to call out the [Balumuk Holy Sword] now, but looking at the snow boy who shook his head, his movements froze.

"thanks······"

The snow child finally turned into a light spot and dissipated in the Louvre, and Valente's hand was clenched tightly at some point.

[God's Perspective · Private]: The knight's [Compassion] made him make his own choice.

[God's Perspective·Private]: [Mercy] has been unlocked.

From Xia Xiu's perspective, the scrolling text and sound broadcast of [God's Perspective] appeared again. He didn't pay attention to these, and his attention was always on Valente.

"Come on, we have to return the painting."

"Ah."

Valente responded silently, and the two silently put "Eternal Smile" back on the second floor of the Louvre, and then they left straight away.

·······
Outside the Louvre.

When the two walked out of the Louvre with a dog, the moonlight hanging from the sky slanted down towards the two of them. Valente Bernard, bathed in the moonlight, looked at Xia Xiu and said something.

"Hugh Abraham, if it were you, what would you choose."

Listening to Valente's question, the blond young man looked up at the moon in the sky.

"I don't know, people only know what they are going to do in the moment when they have the choice."

The blond young man looked sideways at Valente, and Valente saw another kind of purity from his pair of golden eyes.

"Valente, it is impossible for a man to prejudge the position he is going to practice. Here, one can only get a description of spiritual suffering in its pure state. This description is not yet mixed with any metaphysics and any belief .”

"I may choose to save the snow child, and then take it to experience life, understand life, and let her understand the beauty of life; I may also respect the snow child's current choice and let her embrace death with that purity."

"It is meaningless to keep thinking about this kind of problem. When we make a choice, we can only go forward and cannot go back."

After listening to Xia Xiu's words, Valente asked him a question.

"Can you not look back? Abraham, is there anyone who can make a choice without regrets?"

"Valente, I don't know."

Xia Xiu just shook his head, he didn't answer the other party's question directly.

When Xia Xiu became an adult, he made up his mind to live in that icy and burning limited world, and when he came to Terra, he also decided to live in this even crueler world, He is an eternal climber, all he can do is not look back, but he can't really not regret it.

"Abraham, sometimes I feel that you are like an outsider, that you are separated from the world, and the world is absurd and meaningless to you; Hope, indifferent to everything."

"But sometimes I feel that you are more pure than anyone else, and you have a unique characteristic."

Valente stared deeply at Xia Xiu's golden eyes in front of him. He always felt that the blond young man in front of him had a quality that he didn't know how to describe. When he saw Snow Boy, he vaguely noticed that What are the characteristics.

"Abraham, what is destiny for you?"

Xia Xiu froze for a moment, his golden eyes reflected Valente's complicated eyes, he thought for a while, and then slowly said his answer.

"For me, fate is a sleeping slave."

Valente didn't say anything more, he continued to walk forward against the moonlight.

Xia Xiu looked at Valente's back, he shook his head, and then raised his heels to follow him.

At this time, Valente already knew the answer.

Hugh Abraham, he has a purity that surpasses ordinary people, and this purity gives him a divinity that transcends humanity.

The next day.

Luyuan·main office area (basement floor): office space for administrative personnel.

In the office of the non-natural science group.

【Ding--】

[You have a special email! 】

Albert Raungen received an email from one of his graduate students.

Professor Lauengen slowly opened the email sent to him with curiosity. He first skipped the unnutritive greetings at the beginning, and then turned his attention to the most essential part.

"Details on the Return Location of Mr. Night's Familiar Shock"

Professor Lauengen couldn't help raising his eyebrows. As a student, he really goes to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. None of the emails he sent to himself was unsolicited.

It's just that he didn't expect the other party to be so courageous and have such strong wings, and now he dares to stare at Mr. Ye.
