Lord: Sequence Master

Annika looked up and glanced at Rosen secretly. It felt so good to be with him.

Rosen also looked down at Annika, but he was wondering what Daisy meant.

The scene in the time prediction painting did happen just now. Annika's face did turn into Daisy's in a short time, and her hand did reach for his heart through her body at that time, but Daisy stopped at the last moment.

Then Daisy never appeared again, as if nothing had happened.

So Rosen is not sure now, why did Daisy stop at that time? Anyway, it is definitely not because of his strong riding skills. Could it be that the power of psychologists made Daisy aware of his inner vigilance, and then realized that even if she took action, it would not succeed, so she stopped at the last moment?

"Tell me why you left that year?" Rosen asked tentatively.

"Back then, my teacher discovered my talent for painting and took me away by force..." Annika explained guiltily.

The more Rosen listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Annika's teacher was no ordinary person. She was the only female painter in the World Government who had reached Sequence 1, and one of only five Sequence 1 painters. It was because of the guidance of this famous teacher that Annika was able to become a sub-Sequence 4 painter.

But if there was such a backer, how could Annika become Daisy? Or was Annika lying, but she didn't realize it herself, and in fact Annika's memory was just a false illusion made up by Daisy? If this was the case, I'm afraid he couldn't get any valuable clues.

Rosen wanted to ask for more details, but Annika suddenly looked at the studio wall with caution.

In a blank picture frame on the wall, the scene outside the Void Gallery emerged.

There were quite a few painters outside, already gathered outside Annika's Void Gallery.

"It looks like they're looking for us." Rosen saw some familiar figures and started to get dressed.

Soon, he and Annika were dressed and cleaned up, and Annika then controlled the Void Gallery to send the two out.

"Are you here for my Sequence 3 painting?" Rosen asked directly.

"That's right..."

"Although I don't want to admit it, you should be better than us, the Sequence 4 God-born painters..."

"It's no use holding on. This world is devouring our spirituality, and the speed of devouring it is getting faster and faster. So we are going to fight one last time and try to see if we can break through the space barrier of this world and escape..."

A few divine painters briefly explained their purpose, and it was obvious that they had no other choice.

"I can try, but I'll need the help of all the painters." Rosen took out the Demon God and said, "This painting is of the Seven Deadly Sins Demon God. It can condense the Seven Deadly Sins Demon Seeds. The Demon Seeds can absorb the emotions of the Seven Deadly Sins of intelligent life. If the power of the Seven Deadly Sins is sufficient, it may be able to burst out a Sequence 2 attack."

"We need to verify the degree of danger your demon species possesses."

Someone immediately put forward conditions.

Rosen nodded and released the Seven Deadly Sins one by one.

Several divine painters released some alien subjects from the divine territory, planted the demon seeds, and began to observe the specific changes.

They soon discovered that the demon seeds could amplify and absorb the power of the Seven Deadly Sins, and at the same time pollute the spirituality. However, the prerequisite was that the power of the demon seeds had to have an absolute upper hand. If the demon seeds were removed before that, it would not cause much impact.

Several painters of divine descent, with dozens of other painters they had persuaded, began to spread the word and convince all the other painters.

In the end, tens of thousands of painters all agreed and no one refused.

The reason is simple: there is no better choice at this time.

Even though some people hate demons and don't want them to parasitize them, under the general trend, those who are different from ordinary people will be excluded and eliminated first. No one is a fool who doesn't know the current situation, so even if they have opinions in their hearts, they will not show them.

Rosen didn't think it was enough to plant tens of thousands of demon seeds, so he also planted demon seeds in all the painters' extraordinary subjects and soldiers.

The endless power of the Seven Deadly Sins flowed to Rosen along the Seven Deadly Sins, and was then injected into the miracle painting in his hand, and the Demon God appeared.

The demon in the painting began to activate its only miraculous attribute, the Demon Feast.

The essence of this feature is to allow the demon in the painting to absorb the power of the Seven Deadly Sins in excess, and then forcibly increase its own strength. Theoretically, if the power of the Seven Deadly Sins is sufficient, the demon in the painting can burst out with combat power equivalent to that of Sequence 1.

Of course, the outbreak of the Demon God's Feast also has a price. The price is that the painting of the Demon God's appearance will collapse.

However, this is a miracle painting with the characteristic of eternal immortality. As long as it continues to absorb the power of the Seven Deadly Sins, it can be quickly repaired.

Of course, Rosen estimated that even if there were tens of thousands of painters and their extraordinary people on the scene and they could do whatever they wanted, the combined power of the Seven Deadly Sins would not allow the Demon God to reach Sequence 1. Even the combat power of Sequence 2 could only be maintained for a short time.

As the demon appeared to be getting stronger and stronger, something unexpected happened.

Some painters of Sequence 5 suddenly began to attack other painters around them.

They attacked fatally right from the start, and multiple people cooperated tacitly to surround and kill one person.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Sequence 5 painters' bodies had been destroyed.

However, the spiritual consciousness of these painters did not return to the divine territory to revive, but instead drifted towards the unreachable sequence of ancient trees in the middle of the divine kingdom.

No one suspected Rosen of the sudden change.

Because everyone had figured out the true strengths and weaknesses of the demon species, Rosen might be able to use the Seven Deadly Sins Demon species to influence a few people, but it was absolutely impossible for him to make hundreds of Sequence 5 painters lose control collectively.

Moreover, these out-of-control painters looked more like they were being manipulated like puppets.

This was clearly something that could only be achieved with the cooperation of the nude model and other painters' skills. None of the painters present could achieve this level. The ones who could do it were either the top leaders of the Painters Association or the mysterious Sequence 1 painter who had not yet completely died in this divine country.

"It seems like this is forcing us to kill each other..."

Rosen frowned.

"Look at those people."

Annika said suddenly in a panic.

Rosen looked at the Sequence 5s who had just been manipulated to kill other painters.

The extraordinary source in the dead painter's body turned into streams of light and merged into the bodies of the murderers. It was visibly seen that the spiritual strength of these people increased. Some painters were even so astonished that they used skills that they did not know before.

Just like raising a Gu, as long as you kill other painters, you can integrate the extraordinary essence of the dead.

However, each of the painters who had integrated the extraordinary source of energy looked ashen.

Because even a fool knows that the purer the supernatural source essence is, the better. It is not that supernatural source essences of the same sequence cannot be fused, but they cannot be fused casually. Especially, the residual spirituality in the supernatural source essence cannot be fused, otherwise it will only pollute one's own spiritual origin and supernatural source essence.

Even though the strength of dozens of Sequence 5 painters has improved, in fact, their original great talents have been wasted.

The other painters who had originally planned to control these hundreds of painters now retreated and dared not take action.

Now these hundreds of painters are under control, and each of them is a time bomb.

If you accidentally kill these people, your own foundation will be destroyed.

So a ridiculous scene soon occurred where tens of thousands of painters were chased by hundreds of painters.

Running was not a solution, and soon all the painters hid in the Void Gallery.

However, a devastating scene soon appeared. Hundreds of manipulated Sequence 5 painters fearlessly gave up all defenses and took the initiative to find those Void Galleries with passive counterattack measures, and then died in the counterattack measures in a near-suicide.

On average, dozens of Sequence 5 painters simultaneously locked onto a Void Gallery and committed suicide.

Then dozens of extraordinary source essences were all integrated into the body of the painter hiding inside the Void Gallery.

After a dozen painters who were forced to fuse the extraordinary essence left the Void Gallery, other painters were shocked to find that these painters who were originally only Sequence 5 had actually advanced to Sequence 4. They could actually advance by fusing the extraordinary essence of other painters.

Hundreds of Sequence 5 painters manipulated by the mastermind died, and soon the second batch of Sequence 5 painters were manipulated.

It was still the same pattern, suicide attacks on other Void Galleries, forcing a small number of Sequence 5 painters to be promoted to Sequence 4.

Some Sequence 5 painters were unwilling to be manipulated into committing suicide, and began to actively attack other painters. As long as the painters did this, the mastermind behind the scenes would not continue to manipulate them.

Gradually, the situation became more and more chaotic, and more and more painters were forced to be involved in the fight.

As long as there is a life in hand, as long as he is forced to merge the extraordinary essence of a painter.

The only thing left is to give up. His own great talents and qualifications have been wasted. He might as well swallow more extraordinary source essence to be promoted to a higher sequence. Maybe he can still have a chance of survival. It is better than dying in the hands of others and having his extraordinary source essence swallowed by others.

In the entire kingdom of God today, there are only a few hundred painters who can still keep themselves independent.

These hundreds of painters all have their own unique methods. Some of their Void Galleries are hidden in the shadows, some have powerful defense systems with no counterattack measures at all, and some can disguise themselves as anything in the world so that other painters cannot lock on to them.

Rosen was no exception. He released a Void Fog that made all the painters who approached lose their way and unable to get closer.

However, it is not a solution to continue like this. There will always be painters who will be promoted to Sequence 3. If the killing continues, it will only be a matter of time before a Sequence 2 or even Sequence 1 painter is born. By then, the last few hundred painters will be at the mercy of others.

Rosen opened the album of the Void, and in the picture was a horn made of a conch shell.

This is the miraculous treasure, the Psychic Horn, which can break through methods such as mental slavery and can also establish spiritual connections over a large area.

However, it is not an authentic one, nor is it even a copied fake. It is just that Rosen knew there was such a miraculous treasure, so he casually drew a low-quality imitation. It does not have the effect of breaking the mind slavery, but imitates the effect of large-scale mental connection.

"I have a way to escape this disaster. If you are willing to believe me, please come to my Void Gallery."

Rosen informed all the painters who were still safe of his intentions through the mind horn. Almost immediately, a Void Gallery approached Rosen's Void Gallery, because any life-saving straw in a desperate situation was worth grabbing and taking a gamble. Soon, hundreds of painters drove the Void Gallery into the range covered by the space fog.

After they put away the Void Gallery, Rosen took everyone to the gallery maze. Then he entered the mysterious study through the window, and then folded up the Void Gallery and disappeared without a trace.

While Rosen was comforting many painters in the gallery maze, he was also standing at the window watching the tragedy outside that was enough to shock the human world. Outside the Divine Land, the top leaders of the Painters Association silently watched the tragedy in the Divine Land.

"That Rosen is missing..."

"If we can't find them, then don't look for them. Don't forget our purpose. Those who are able to survive are the future of the painter sequence, and those who are unable to survive will become the fuel for the rise of the painter sequence. What we want is not to kill them all, but the survival of the fittest..."

"The one from the Institute of Archaeology doesn't want to see Rosen alive..."

"That can't be helped. Before the matter is accomplished, everything we do cannot be made public..."

Elio, the vice president of the Painters' Association, unfolded the Void Album and drew a picture of Rosen being swallowed by nothingness. However, after a moment, Elio put away the Void Album with a grim expression.

"I failed. It is very likely that Rosen has a miraculous treasure with special miraculous properties."

Elio said worriedly.

"It is not his fate to die. I will go and trap Chinon Ture."

The president of the association, Luca, said helplessly. Seeing the disappearing president of the association, Elio and other senior members of the Painters Association were a little worried. Qinon Ture is a Sequence 0 archaeologist who is just as powerful as the president. The two sides have never fought each other, and the outcome is difficult to predict, so the president would be taking a great risk if he took the initiative to attack Qinon.

…

In just a few days, the kingdom of God had become a sea of blood. Among the tens of thousands of painters, except for the hundreds who hid in Rosen's Void Gallery, only one was left after they had killed each other. This is not as simple as the casualties of tens of thousands of painters. Also killed are the citizens of these painters' divine territories. Calculated based on the fact that each painter has at least 10 million citizens, at least 100 billion people have been killed or injured in these few days.

Amidst the sea of corpses and blood, Belia Joestar lowered his head blankly. He was originally only a Sequence 5 painter, but after a few days he integrated tens of thousands of extraordinary essences of the same sequence. Now he has become a Sequence 1 painter, and has mastered tens of thousands of painting skills. It is probably not an exaggeration to say that he is invincible at Sequence 1.

However, Beria was not happy at all because he knew that the mastermind behind the scenes would not let him go. On the other hand, he will not let the mastermind behind this go.

However, just when Belia wanted to break out of the Kingdom of God and find the top leaders of the Painters Association who planned all this, he suddenly lost control of his body and spirit, and walked towards the untouchable sequence ancient tree in the center of the Kingdom of God like a puppet.

At this time, the sequence of ancient trees is no longer illusory. After all, it has absorbed the spiritual essence of tens of thousands of painters. I saw the ancient tree of sequence growing roots that took root directly on Belia.

Rosen immediately realized that this was the scene corresponding to his second time-predictive painting. If you think about it carefully, you will understand why the prediction was inaccurate. If he didn't have the mysterious study, he would definitely be the only one among the ten thousand painters who survived, and he would definitely be the one to be used as fertilizer in the end. But because of the mysterious study, he changed his mortal future. However, the time-predicting painting cannot predict the mysterious study, so the predicted results will be wrong.

Even though Belia had become a Sequence 1 painter, he was still quickly beaten to ashes by the Sequence Ancient Tree. And under the sequence ancient tree that used Belia as nourishment, a human figure began to gradually gather.

However, at this moment, the sky of the Kingdom of God cracked open. The Painter Sequence Ancient Tree located in Shentu City descended from the sky and wrapped its roots around the Sequence 1 Ancient Tree. The roots even continued to spread and take root in the entire Kingdom of God world, using the entire Kingdom of God world as nutrients. The cannibal will be eaten by others. The Painters Association has never thought of resurrecting this half-dead founder of the Painters Sequence. But the Painters' Association would do this regardless of the cost. What on earth was it for?

Just when Rosen thought everything was about to end, the top leaders of the Painters' Association showed up one after another. There is a total of one Sequence 0, two Sequence 1s, and nine Sequence 2s. These are the peak powerhouses of the human Painter Sequence. At this time, they are walking towards the Painter Sequence ancient tree one by one, allowing the roots to penetrate their bodies and use them as nutrients. Even the president of the General Association, Luca, summoned his own kingdom of God from the starry sky of the Eternal Continent.

Such an action directly alarmed all the gods in the Eternal Continent, and the gazes of gods, even true gods, continued to descend on Shentu City. After seeing the mountains of corpses and seas of blood under the ancient tree of the Painter Sequence, some were furious, some mocked, and some sighed helplessly. At this time, Rosen also closed the window of the mysterious study.

What if some true god possesses special powers and discovers the mysterious study through the window? It is safer to close the window. As soon as the window was closed, Magic Eye No. 9 discovered important information in the deep web of the spiritual world. It turned out that just now, the president of the General Painters' Union, Luca West, and the top leaders of the General Painters' Union made a public confession before their death.

There is no real sequence 0 in the painter sequence. This is an open secret among the top leaders of each sequence. Although Luca is a Sequence 0 painter, his advancement to Sequence 0 does not rely on the rules of painting. Because the painting rules of the Painter Sequence are incomplete and were bound by some special ability of the founder of the Painter Sequence, the ancient tree of this sequence has survived to this day and has not died out, because this person has always been relying on the ancient tree of the Painter Sequence to prolong his life. Unless this founder dies completely, no one in the Painter Sequence can advance to Sequence 0 through the laws of painting.

Originally, with Luca's support, the painter sequence could still protect itself. However, in the previous civilization catastrophe, Luca's divine origin was fundamentally damaged, and he himself was cursed by the alien true god, so Luca will not live for a few more years. Once Luca dies, the painter sequence without Sequence 0 will inevitably be suppressed in various ways. Therefore, Luca would rather sacrifice tens of thousands of talented painters and get rid of the founder of the painter sequence at all costs.

Finally, the top leaders of the Painters Association were used as sacrifices to completely restore the weakened ancient tree of the Painters Sequence. In this way, among the remaining Sequence 1s in the Painter Sequence, someone will surely be able to advance to Sequence 0 by relying on the painting rules within a short period of time. From the overall situation, the top leaders of the Painters Association chose to sacrifice themselves to save the entire painter sequence.

But no matter how Rosen looked at it, he felt that there was something wrong with this confession. Luca is dying soon, so it makes sense that he doesn't care about sacrifice. But are all the other senior members of the Painters Association dying soon? Do they all have the spirit to sacrifice for the future of the Painters Sequence? Isn't there any one who wants to live a good life?

Rosen was somewhat suspicious that all the top leaders of the Painters Association were controlled by someone. It is possible that Luca controlled other high-level officials, and it is also possible that strong people from other sequences controlled the high-level officials of the Painters Association. In short, Rosen did not believe that this was the only way to save the Painters Sequence, and the foundation of the World Government was too disappointing.
