Chapter 368

Rather than pin your hopes on this, it is better to wait for the next door card to be issued.

It is impossible for the school to issue only two access cards.

There are many more opportunities in the future.

…

Duck himself also had expectations for the issuance of key cards.

Ideally.

Having a key card will become a symbol of "eliteness".

The number of people is not large, but it is not small either.

These people have high self-control and the ability to deal with danger, and can develop the secret passage in a good way after entering it.

…

After a cup of tea.

Professor Silver also stopped writing and joined the discussion between the two.

Later, they even discussed the face and style of the key card, and almost forgot about the "Invisible Man".

Professors' thinking is sometimes really unconstrained and extremely creative.

Dak benefited a lot from just having discussions with them that had nothing to do with magic technology.

By the time I left the office, it was getting dark.

Duck didn't go to Traveler Street anymore, but used tonight to complete his homework.

It wasn't until the next Saturday that he really had time to travel and started making a lot of purchases.

Now, he has a full 50,000 credits credited to his branch card, and his squandering really feels like he has a lot of money.

So when he passed by the ancient bookstore run by the goblin, he couldn't help but stop.

Another look: "Isn't this Senior Sister Angelia?"

Chapter 324 Darkdemon’s artistic path (4k)

…

In a quiet and tidy bookstore street, this goblin ancient bookstore, which looks like a piece of rotten wood put together, seems extra out of place.

The old goblin, whose skin folds could trap flies, wore a tattered cotton-padded jacket with exposed cotton wool, and shouted loudly while holding on to the same shabby books. He was more like selling groceries than books.

The students were not surprised at all. After selecting the books, they wiped the dirt on the covers and accepted them.

Most of the books in the bookstore can be bought for one or two credits, and the more expensive ones only cost about ten credits.

But Duck often heard people say that the books in this goblin ancient bookstore were particularly expensive.

Some of the unique copies put up for auction can even fetch hundreds of credits.

Obviously, this is a place where only those who really love books, or those who have enough credits, will come to buy books.

Duck actually doesn't like books that much, so he has never visited before.

But Angelia Hudson is a frequent visitor to the Goblin Ancient Bookstore.

Especially since there was a way to obtain credits recently, she came more frequently.

Therefore, it is not really a coincidence that Dak met her here.

However, the interaction between the two parties was actually not deep, so Duck did not take the initiative to strike up a conversation, but just walked into the bookstore very normally.

Different from the noise at the door, the inside of the bookstore is quite quiet, with a light woody fragrance exuding everywhere.

The clerk twitching her ears in front of the counter was not a goblin, but a lady from the long-eared tribe.

Except for a pair of furry long ears that can hang down to the shoulders, the demihuman race without any alien characteristics is the so-called long-eared tribe.

When Dake walked into the store, the lady from the long-eared tribe was pulling down her long-eared scalp, putting it under her chin, completely covering both sides of her face, and just lying on the table, using a pair of raw and unfinished hands. The cute dead fish looked outside.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s too noisy or too cold.

It was the first time for Dak to see a living Long-eared Tribe, so he couldn't help but take another look, and then... he was stared at!

"She looks like a young lady with a bad temper."

With this thought in mind, he walked to the bookshelf with the "Art" sign and started browsing more casually.

Now that he's here, he still wants to find some useful books.

In the "Art" category, books related to paintings account for the majority, but there are also some books related to sculpture.

His main focus is on carving, preferably wood carving.

A few minutes later, he found a thick book with the keyword "wood carving" in the title from the bottom of the bookshelf, and squatted down to take it out and check it out.

With some effort, he pulled out the book, and then shook it hard while standing up, which actually shook out a large amount of dust.

It can be seen that this book has been sitting at the bottom of the bookshelf for more than a year or two.

After dusting off the cover of the book, Duck looked at the title carefully and read out: ""The Art of Wood Carving by Van Di"... Who is Van Di?"

Duck couldn't help but blinked.

Van Gogh knew something about it, he was a sunflower painter.

But this Van Low...

"He was a performance artist during the war. Did he still sculpt with his own hands?"

A soft voice suddenly sounded from behind the ear.

Dak turned his head slightly and saw that Senior Sister Angelia had walked up to him from behind and asked seemingly casually: "Are you interested in wood carving?"

Dak smiled and said: "Yes, a little bit. Senior Sister Hudson, it's a pleasure to meet you."

But Senior Sister Angelia stretched out her hand and pulled her too-long bangs, and said with a nonchalant expression: "That's not what you were thinking when you saw me just now, right?"

Dak paused for a moment, but his expression remained natural: "No, I just didn't want to disturb my senior sister. Come to think of it, is this Van Di not a sculptor, but a performance artist?"

"I don't know if he is a sculptor, but he is indeed a performance artist." Angela nodded and said, "Otherwise, have you ever seen a madman running naked and laughing on a battlefield full of corpses after a fight?"

"This..."

Dake looked down at "Vandi's Woodcarving Art" and replied, "In fact, I have never even seen a battlefield."

Angelia picked up the book in her hand and looked at his hand with a squint.

Dake then opened "Vandi's Woodcarving Art".

The first page was a repeated title, author, and a sentence from the author.

"There is nothing more beautiful than the human form. Therefore, we give the human form to our gods."

...

"It doesn't look like something a madman who likes to run naked would say."

Dake looked at the line of words and felt that it made sense.

The form of gods is uncertain, and many gods can even switch freely among multiple forms.

But humans often imagine the gods they believe in as pure human forms.

The ultimate imagination is the core of the Holy Church's faith - "holy"!

Of course, before confirmation, Dak could not determine whether it was imaginary or real.

After all, the gods have fallen for a long time.

In short, while thinking about it, he turned to the next page, glanced at the catalog with only the chapter number, and continued to turn down.

Then, he saw the first section of the first chapter - "Soft Beauty".

The book was painted with a soft human body carved out of a white wood.

The whole human body sculpture showed a posture of leaning back into a shape, and every detail of the human body was clearly visible.

Dak was stunned and looked away quickly.

He was not shy, but worried about "Bliss +1".

But after looking away, he realized that it was not private time now, so he closed the book "Vandi's Woodcarving Art" with some embarrassment.

Then, he looked at the senior sister Angelia beside him.

The long bangs covered the senior sister's forehead, making her look quite low-key.

But to Dak's surprise, she didn't have many shy reactions like other girls, but seemed to be more interested.

"Is this Vandi's work?"

Angelia blurted out.

"I didn't expect that a performance artist could actually have such advanced carving skills! Do you want this book? If not..."

Dak was surprised and said subconsciously, "Yes."

"Really?" Angelia felt quite regretful, "Then if you finish reading it, can you lend it to me? I can pay the fee like renting a book."

Dak said, "Forget the fee, wait until I finish reading it."

Angelia immediately said, "Okay, thank you!"

...

Dak finally bought "Vandi's Woodcarving Art".

Of course it wasn't because Angelia was around.

After careful consideration, he found that this woodcarving book was really helpful to him.

Although there are many types of "armor", the most common one is full-body armor, and the basis for making armor, especially close-fitting soft armor, is naturally to conform to the human body structure.

The most important thing to learn new knowledge is to lay a good foundation.

From basic to advanced, you can't just look at castles in the air.

He has almost no basics now, and he still has to learn by himself. How to jump directly to armor making is too difficult.

So, let's start with human body carving!

Moreover, "Vandi's Woodcarving Art" is not only about human body carving, but also about many sub-human species... such as orc carving.

If you can master the method of carving orc bodies, you can naturally master the body structure of animals.

In short, this book is unexpectedly comprehensive.

…

After buying "Vandi's Woodcarving Art", Dark did not stay in the Goblin Antique Bookstore for long.

He quickly said goodbye to senior sister Angelia and continued to collect materials on Traveler Street.

It was almost evening when he summoned Tailmon from the dormitory. With its help, he brought a whole trailer of packages back to the dormitory.

The door of dormitory 201 was like a huge mouth, only in but not out.

Dak opened the package, sorted the materials inside, and then took a breath and went into the bathroom to wash his body.

After he was refreshed, he lay down on the bed and read "Vandi's Woodcarving Art".

Although he subconsciously avoided it at first.

But in fact, with his current concentration, it would not be a big problem to look at these woodcarvings that are exquisite but fake after all.

Dak Dimon is not a real ignorant boy.

…

But he just started to read the woodcarving art, and the little Eevee and the fairy Eevee sneaked into the bed, rubbing against his face from left to right, which made him a little troubled.

Sure enough, not long after, the two magic elves were attracted by this woodcarving art and refused to leave.
