The process of taking out the painting is actually very simple, at least that's what Xia Xiu really thinks. At this time, he has quietly slipped into the monitoring room. Before sneaking in, he even knocked out a few buddies who were on shift.

If you faint, leave it at the door.

"Haah——"

The security guard responsible for surveillance couldn't help but stretch out on his office chair. When the other person stretched, Xia Xiu stood behind him. When he lazily put down his hand, Xia Xiu's

The knife had already landed on the carotid sinus on the side of his neck.

The security guard's blood pressure dropped sharply, and he fainted due to lack of blood supply to the brain.

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

Poof——

"nailed it."

When the content on the last screen went dark, Xia Xiu stood up and clapped his hands.

"Jiamu should have taken care of the patrols, and Valente should have taken care of the alarm."

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

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

"Well, everything has been taken care of. All that's left is to get the painting." Xia Xiu nodded and replied.

Then, both of them looked at the "Eternal Smile" mounted in the wall. The soft light emitted from the glass cover was enough for them to see every detail in the picture clearly.

When you look at this painting, you will feel very strange. In front of this famous painting, no matter which angle you look at it, her gentle eyes are always looking at you with a smile, so vivid and vivid, as if she is right next to you.

Xia Xiu and Valente both 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 reached out to pick up 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 comments, Valente was stunned for a moment. At this time, Xia Xiu had already taken the painting and left. He looked at the other person's back and shook his head with a smile.

"This guy is really..."

"Hurry up and follow." Xia Xiu turned around and urged Valente, who was laughing.

"Coming."

Valente quickly caught up with the opponent.

·········

Inside the Painting Gallery of the Louvre.

"Meow, I saw a lot of people stacked on top of each other, meow."

This was Snow Child's first sentence after seeing Valente and Xia Xiu. At this time, there were human towers of people who had been knocked unconscious everywhere in the Louvre. After listening to these words, the two people

He couldn't help but look at Jiamu who was lying on the side.

"Sure enough, there are dogs like the kind of owners they have." Valente glanced at Jiam, 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 won't take the blame." Xia Xiu stretched out his leg to symbolically kick Jiam lightly.

After a brief play, they changed the conversation to the main topic. Ever since they came in, Snow Child's big flashing eyes have been looking here intentionally or unintentionally. She looks like a child now when she is receiving gifts.

, I obviously care about the gift in the hands of the adults, but I have to pretend to be careless.

"You want to see paintings?" Xia Xiu looked like a funny adult at this time.

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

Xia Xiu put "Eternal Smile" away, and then he slowly took off the white cloth covering the portrait under Xue Hai's expectant gaze.

"Meow!"

When she saw the portrait, Snow Child's breathless nostrils finally relaxed.

Snow Child watched "Eternal Smile" with light steps: an elegant woman sat on a semicircular wooden chair, with a railing behind her separating the characters and the background.

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

It's an amazing painting. The human who painted 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 beautiful." Xue Hai recovered from her obsession and nodded towards Xia Xiu.

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

Xuehai looked at the painting and said infatuatedly. Xia Xiu and Valente both noticed it. When Xuehai saw "Eternal Smile", her big bright eyes flashed with satisfaction, and her figure began to exude

A burst of fluorescence.

The figure of the Snow Child began to become a little transparent.

"The Louvre Museum of Painting does contain many paintings by famous artists, but the wheel of the times keeps moving forward. In fact, these are not the only outstanding paintings. There are many excellent schools outside, and there are many amazing paintings."

Valente on the side said.

While Valente was speaking, he had already walked up to Snow Child and squatted down. He stroked Snow Child's head and said to Snow Child in a sincere tone:

"The outside world is very big. Beyond the Louvre is the Capital of Flowers, and beyond the Capital of Flowers is France. And France has a center and a world."

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

Valente's performance today was different from usual. His current performance was too positive, while Xia Xiu just watched quietly from the side.

[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 possesses the [Barumk Holy Sword] can cut off the earth bondage.

The bondage of the spirit, and cutting off the bondage requires the consent of both parties.

[God's Perspective] Although it is like a mission issuer in nature, its essence is just a manifestation of the destiny narrative ability of [The Crimson King]. It does not actually put forward mission requirements, and it has never been true to any sentence.

He mentioned that [Mercy] can be achieved by helping Snow Child gain freedom.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The so-called eight virtues, the more they involve the essential virtues of human beings, the more abstract the conditions mentioned.

[Pity]: Sympathy for the weak. A knight must have a broad and tolerant heart. The justice in his heart should be the knight's code of conduct.

What kind of behavior can be considered as a code of conduct that satisfies the justice in the heart?

Valente Bernard is facing such a problem now.

Valente and Xia Xiu actually noticed a problem before they picked up the painting. Snow Child was too pure, she was just like Snow White.

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

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

But for Snow Child, what is death?

Snow Child has not received education about death, she has not seen the passing of life, and she has not experienced pain.

Is death a disease?

It seems not, because no one seems to have suffered from this disease, and no one has told what this disease is. Those twisted existences that "resurrection from the dead" do not seem to have been exposed to death. They are just monsters and they do not know death.

"Meow, choose..."

The gradually dissipating Snow Child raised her head and glanced at Valente. She saw the pity in his eyes, and Snow Child rubbed his face with his hand.

“Don’t humans ever collapse from fear of living with endless choices?”

Snow Child looked directly at Valente Bernard and said.

"The vast world has everything you need, but it has no end... There is no end at all."

"There is a world weighing on you, and you don't even know where it will end. And can you accept the end calmly?"

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

Faced with Snow Child's questions, Valente fell silent.

"What stops me is not what I see, but what I cannot see."

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

Snow Child is clear about her choice, just as her destiny is clearly visible in front of her.

All things are burdened by the secular world. This is the fate of all things. Xuehai rejected this fate and chose purity.

The figure of the snow child began to turn into a little bit of light, and now, another choice was placed in front of Valente Bernard.

Take out the [Holy Sword of Barumk] to cut off the fate of death, or respect the death of the snow child.

Valente shook his hand. He wanted to summon the [Holy Sword of Barumk] now, but when he looked at Snow Child who shook his head, his movements froze.

"Thanks······"

The snow child finally turned into a point of light and disappeared in the Louvre. Valente's hand tightened at some point.

[God's Perspective·Private]: The knight's [compassion] allowed him to make his own choice.

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

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