Soul Painter

STK is of course not the only organization recruiting investigators in the world. The 'gravediggers' that STK reminded Gao Fan to pay attention to is another small investigator organization.

The origin of gravediggers can be traced back to 100 years ago, when a group of European historians, occultists and adventure enthusiasts launched a gathering called 'Readers' to explore the mystery that was sealed at the end of history. They quickly learned something, and here, a split occurred within the organization.

Some members of the organization believed that he should only explore and obtain this knowledge, not use it, while another group of members decided to participate in the mystery themselves despite the opposition of others. These members performed a summoning ceremony, just like all vain Like those who touched the scaly claws of the Great Being, they either died or went mad.

In the accident, there are only three survivors left, who retain their memories and complete bodies, but there is no doubt that they have also become the minions of the devil, dedicated to bringing the devil to the world. The remaining readers began to stop their former companions. After a series of explorations and expeditions, the readers gained a lot of mystic knowledge, but also suffered heavy casualties, with only the last five members remaining.

These five people reached an agreement, used the mysterious "resurrection technique", summoned themselves back from hell, and gained immortality. Since then, they have crossed the long river of time, dedicated to recruiting companions all over the world, defeating The 'dreadful mission' that those three minions were doing.

No one knows who the demons they fight are, and their warnings are often only heard in the darkest corners of the world.

In STK's warning, the gravediggers are a group of desperadoes with rich combat experience. They are keen to recruit executioners who return from the battlefield with bloody hands and become members of the organization. Perhaps due to the limited resources in their hands, so The scale of their organization has never grown. Even so, any target targeted by the gravediggers will feel jealous.

It is reported that gravediggers are paying attention to the commission initiated by J.K Rowing this time, and they suspect that J.K Rowing intends to hold some kind of mysterious summoning ceremony.

If Gao Fan accepts J.K Rowing's commission, he must be careful about meeting with the gravedigger.

So, will the investigators also confront each other?

Humans have never been monolithic. STK told Gao Fan that it is not only those who are physically polluted will degenerate into minions. There are some human beings whose minds are polluted and maintain human reason, but they have become vassals of demons in their beliefs. It's the most dangerous group of people.

Gao Fan always felt that the operator was pointing fingers and scolding Huai.

talking about him.

Perhaps because of Qiu Qingfan's accident, STK is a little suspicious of Gao Fan, right?

After all, an F-level ordinary exploration mission suddenly becomes a D-level, and there are creatures like the "second generation of gods" like nightmares.

Combined with the fact that every time Gao Fan encountered a mission, he would suddenly increase his level. It is hard to believe that it was purely accidental.

Me, a human traitor?

Hehe, I have always been on the side of humans!

Although let me choose a human or a cat as a partner, I will choose the cat without hesitation...

Gao Fan slapped the angry God who had his back turned to him because he was abandoned in the car.

drive on the road.

Good day.

...

Gao Fan estimated that it would take about ten days for him to return to Tianshi.

Although the distance between Shanghai and Tianshi is only more than a thousand kilometers.

But he has the curse of the invisible son after all.

This is also the reason why Gao Fan was unwilling to use the Curse of Invisibility when he was in Rose Villa. He was afraid that if he lost his way and added a few debuffs, such as blindness, deafness, and loss of coordination of limbs, it would be miserable.

In this way, the "great existence in the world of flesh and blood" where he has deposited a large amount of savings is cuter. The price of using the carving knife is only thin.

Of course, now his 'deposit' at that place is gone, in order to save Qiu Qingfan, he lost weight back to before.

As for why Qiu Qingfan was rescued, he almost killed him, but he rescued him again, is there a problem? Fair and just, no questions asked.

And when Gao Fan successfully arrived in Tianshi four days later, he realized that the sequelae of the invisible curse had left him.

Sure enough, the curse has a duration.

very good.

Now, there are only three days left until school starts.

Some students have already returned to Tianmei, and the teachers have arrived early.

Gao Fan had just returned to school, and he was warmly welcomed by the director. Seeing Gao Fan who had returned intact, the director gave him a hug as a proud disciple. Although it was about three months ago, his perception was still "a mud that can't support the wall." ’, but that’s all in the past tense.

"Two months ago, I was a student of Tianmei, and now I have become a well-known painter, not bad, not bad." The director praised Gao Fan.

"It's okay, okay." Gao Fan accepted the compliment without asking why, in his opinion, it was all right to praise him.

"Several reporters have already contacted the school and said they want to interview you. Do you want to arrange a time to meet with them?" The director said again, and then he reported the names of several newspapers and publications, including "Oriental Oil Painting" and "Artist's Guide" is a well-known reading in the industry.

"Okay, but tell them that if you interview me, at least it must be a special article with photos of people, otherwise don't come." Gao Fan remembered the reporting lessons from the last Biennale. What a waste of time.

"This should be negotiable." The director said cheerfully, "But you should also mention more about Tianmei's training for you, and more about Principal Lu's teaching for you."

"Of course." Gao Fan said with a smile, "I studied hard, and Tianmei's teachers in various subjects gave me scores ranging from 20 to 59. I will definitely talk to the reporters about it."

"You... failed all subjects?" The director frowned, he really didn't pay attention to this, "How is it possible, aren't there still a few open-book exams?"

"I'm too lazy to copy." Gao Fan said, "I'm too tired."

"What about the make-up exam?" The director asked again. Domestic universities are strict in entry and exit, and no matter how bad the students are, they will be given several chances. Tianmei's make-up exam is even a normal IQ can pass by at a low altitude.

"Is there a make-up exam?" Gao Fan was surprised.

You have studied in Tianmei for three years, and you don’t know that there is such a thing as make-up exams... The director looked at Gao Fan, and the long-hidden blade in his eyes gradually burst into light, as if he wanted to peel off the glamorous skin of this "proud student" and reveal himself Get out of the 'slime' essence.

If this kid hadn't suddenly shown his skills at the Biennale, he should be on the verge of dropping out of school or re-studying now... But the matter has come to this point, and it is a done deal. He can only pinch his nose to recognize the background board school of "vulgar education".

"I'll make arrangements." The director sighed, "Tell me about J.K Rowing."

"Why are you talking about this?" Gao Fan wondered.

"That's why the reporter wants to interview you," said the director.

"Ah? They know?" Gao Fan was surprised.

"Otherwise, why did they interview you, because you sold a painting at the Biennale? In the art circle, it's a trivial matter, and outside the circle, no one cares." The director mocked Gao Fan, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
