Chapter 27 Guarding the Golden Fleece

Andy quoted 10 million U.S. dollars, on the grounds that it must be magnificent to show respect for God. After Constantine said he could only claim 1 million U.S. dollars, Nadja took care of the rest.

In Andy's living room.

He marveled at an oil painting.

"Guardian of the Golden Fleece", a work by Baron Leyton in the 18th century, is said to be a sister work to "Guardian of the Golden Apple". Unexpectedly, it was collected by LaRose, and is now being given to Andy as the cost of building a temple.

This oil painting is still of great appreciation value. If it weren't for the lack of money, Andy would have really wanted to stay.

Looking at Constantine who was smoking and meditating, Andy said dissatisfied: "John, smoking is prohibited here, have you forgotten? And you are so down and out, do you really have a million dollars?"

Putting out the cigarette, Constantine nodded and said: "Andy, I really have no money, but you don't know, my surname is very ancient. My ancestors once studied magic with Master Merlin, and it has been passed down to me. I also have some antique jewelry.

, it’s no problem to take it out.”

"But I'm a little anxious now. I feel like our world is about to become a sieve. Not only are aliens invading, but demons are also emerging. Without new allies joining us, we alone won't be able to cope with it."

Constantine does come from a magical family, but he actually belongs to an anti-hero, that is, a group of people with super powers who have had problems with their upbringing and are mentally unsound. He actually has a kind of world-weariness, and his constant smoking is also an external manifestation of anxiety.

.

"John, don't worry. There is an old saying in our dragon kingdom that when the sky falls, there is a tall one who can hold it up. You must know that you are not the only ones protecting this world. There are also Avengers. Look at Johnny, he is very calm."

Johnny, who was pointed out by Andy, put down the translated version of "Journey to the West" in his hand, shrugged and said: "Since I became a Buddhist, I firmly believe that if I do the right things, I will go to the Pure Land of Paradise after death, so I am not worried.

By the way, Andy, can we put a statue of Sun Wukong in the temple? He is the protector of Buddhism. Maybe if I burn incense for him every day, the monkey god can sense it."

Put a monkey next to Apollo?

Andy directly objected: "Johnny, the gods of the two sects are not suitable to be placed in the same temple, and I think there is no need to be so formalistic about believing in Sun Wukong. As long as you respect Sun Wukong in your heart, it will be fine."

"Andy, you are trying to differentiate. Why can Greek gods have temples, but Sun Wukong can't?"

"Johnny, my friend, I think your reading of "Journey to the West" is still superficial. Sun Wukong's other name is Heart Monkey, which actually represents the tyranny in Buddha's heart. Therefore, there is a level in Journey to the West called "Shan Xin Yuan Yi Ma". Sun Wukong was originally

If you live in the heart of Buddha, you can also let Sun Wukong live in your heart."

Johnny was stunned by Andy's words. Although Andy was not a Buddhist, Journey to the West was so familiar that he could be confused by just making an argument.

"Andy, I always think there is something wrong with what you are saying, but I can't find any evidence now. I will debate it with you after I do some research."

Andy now regrets letting Johnny come into contact with Buddhism. Buddhism emphasizes the afterlife, so although Johnny is suffering in this life, he has found spiritual sustenance through Buddhism.

How can I replace Mephisto if I become more and more Buddha?

"Okay, let's all go to bed early. Johnny, you can recite sutras outside at night so as not to disturb me, and also to prevent Dracula from coming to kill you."

After Andy received the money, he wanted to express his gratitude. If the people next door were really bloodbathed by Dracula, then how could he profit from them in the future?

After spending an hour sending emails to some private museums in Washington, New York and Los Angeles, Andy fell asleep peacefully.

Having two bodyguards at home means you are safe.

The next morning, I received the demo file from Numerical Ark, which is a 3D rendering.

After downloading the professional software according to the instructions, Andy first clicked on the file of the Temple of Gods.

There is a very high mountain in the night sky, and you can see the lush greenery on several surrounding hills. Going up the mountain in the middle, there are suddenly clouds and mist. After going up for a while, it breaks through the clouds. Then the light changes and the whole picture changes.

Became bright!

A towering golden building similar to the Parthenon stands on the top of the mountain, and there are five floating islands around it. Each island has buildings of different styles, including a arena, gardens, opera house, Hera

and the Temple of Zeus.

In the entire scene, the light is emitted from the temple in the middle. The picture is a dynamic picture. A beautiful and classic boat is flying in the air, and the boat is pulled by two golden goats.

If you listen carefully, you can hear background music that sounds like a choir song.

Authentic classical fantasy!

The glorious atmosphere can overflow through the screen!

This is the feeling you want!

Click to enter the temple. It is really big inside. If you refer to the height of the heroic guards at the door, the entire temple has more than 2,000 square meters. There are tall marble reliefs one after another. From the door to the innermost throne of God, there are a total of twelve.

There are thirty-six huge pillars, and under each pillar are ten heroic guards wearing Greek armor.

Except for the guards, no one else was there, which seemed a bit empty, but each of the twelve thrones reflected a different scene. Zeus and Hera had lightning clouds, Poseidon had waves, and Hades had darkness.

Apollo's is the rays of the sun, and the details are well grasped.

This is generally okay.

Then click on the Apollo God Realm. Unlike the map of the temples, there is no intersection between the night sky and the light. It is a kind of blazing light. First of all, the atmosphere is right.

The white palace on the cliff is more simple than the temples and less glorious. There are trees, grass and steps on the west slope. To the east is the ocean lapping against the mountain. It is beautiful blue. There are several mermaids resting and singing on the rocks.

Clear and gentle.

Continue clicking with the mouse to zoom in on the Temple of Apollo. At the entrance are two heroic guards and a classical chariot pulled by four white horses. Entering the temple, in addition to a fiery red crystal throne, there are also several fairies playing music in the corner.

After exiting the Temple of Apollo, Andy frowned as he looked at the hibiscus tree growing out of a warm spot under the western hillside.

It’s not that the hibiscus tree wasn’t done well, on the contrary, the obsidian-like straight trunk, fire crystal-colored leaves, spears, bows and arrows, and daggers are all very fantasy, and the sun is quite satisfactory.

The biggest problem is that the hibiscus tree is too far away from the temple, and it is inconvenient to access weapons if they are hung on the tree. It is very strange!

Gotta change it!

Andy thought for a while and simply removed the palace, moved the hibiscus tree directly to the location of the original palace, and placed a sacred throne under the tree. This made it look very open, and the hibiscus tree branches could be placed on the sacred throne to build a canopy, with two guards guarding the sun.

The chariot and four white horses roamed on the meadow, and the fairies continued to play under the trees.

After deciding how to change Apollo God Realm in general, Andy continued to look at the details again and again. It took more than four hours to find a lot of things that needed to be changed and added, and he made a requirements document. Numerical Ark will modify it according to this.

However, after listening to it, it became clear that after Andy put forward some opinions, he forwarded the two files to Slade through the self-destructing software and asked him to give his opinions from the perspective of film shooting. At the same time, the email also explained that there were several ways to create these two digital files.

How expensive it is to make this product more serious.

After sending the email, Andy breathed a sigh of relief.

"If the other party makes the modifications, they have to pay the balance and get rid of the antique as soon as possible."

Opening his mailbox, Andy found that there were a dozen unread emails, and the names of the emails were all about purchasing the oil painting "Guardian of the Golden Fleece".

Haha, generally private museums are not short of money, and this oil painting is by a famous artist, so they are anxious to buy it.

I clicked on them one by one, and basically the words were the same. They either asked Andy to come for an interview or asked Andy to provide a certificate of authenticity. One company called the Monroe Collection was the most sincere and said that they would send someone over immediately to interview Andy.

Looking at the time, Andy had an appointment with Ding Du in Hollywood the morning after tomorrow. Andy simply replied via email and scheduled the meeting in Beverly Hills in the afternoon the day after tomorrow.

"Maybe I can meet Wonder Woman again by chance. I have to urge Constantine to send his antiques quickly."
