Considering the current state of the new city, as well as the common routes used by wizards, the best place to hold the art exhibition was the Mission Control District near the entrance of the city.
The Mission Control District was the temporary command center for the new city. It was not only a place for accepting quests, but also a city planning center where resources were distributed.
Because of the need for resources, most wizards would come to the Mission Control District when they came to the new city. It was the most crowded area right now.
However, the Mission Control District had many buildings, but they were all temporary structures. It was not easy to find a suitable place to hold the art exhibition.
"Maybe I should just hold an outdoor art exhibition?" Angor wondered. The paintings were created using illusions anyway, so they would not be damaged by wind or rain.
While thinking, he walked toward the Mission Control District.
He first took a stroll around the Mission Control District while observing the buildings around him. While doing so, he began to assess the situation in his mind.
Just as he had expected, the temporary buildings did not take into account aesthetic issues. Basically, they were just "passable" buildings. Except for the temporary City Hall, the rest of the buildings were basically gray stone houses, which had a rather primitive feel.
Even though Angor was only using illusions to simulate Feng's paintings, he still felt that it was a waste of art to put them in such a shabby building. Besides, other wizards would probably not pay much attention to the art exhibition if they saw it here.
Maybe he should build a more elegant gallery nearby.
As he was thinking, he heard someone calling him from behind.
"I've been busy building the new city every day, and you're just a hands-off boss."
Angor turned around and saw a beautiful witch wearing a rose-patterned royal dress walking toward him.
"Good afternoon, Leona." Angor smiled and ignored Leona's grumbling. He could tell that Leona did not sound angry at all despite her complaints. She even had a small smile on her face, which meant she was in a good mood.
After all, she was the one who built this unprecedented tea party, which might even change the tide of history. No matter how hard Leona worked, she would gladly endure it.
As expected, Leona did not mention "hands-off boss" again. Instead, she crossed her arms and looked at Angor in the eyes. "I saw you from the window on the third floor of the city hall when you arrived. You've been walking around here for a while. What are you doing?"
Leona thought Angor was here to look for her. After all, she was the only wizard in the Mission Control District. However, Angor did not go to the city hall at all. Instead, he wandered around leisurely, which made Leona feel uneasy. So she came to find him.
"Huh? What did you say? Art exhibition? "Leona looked at him in disbelief.
"Yes. I'm going to hold an art exhibition here."
"I'm not surprised that you're going to hold an exhibition or new product release." You're going to hold an art exhibition? "Leona asked," Since when did you start focusing on art? "
"I'm not going to show my paintings." Using his "Celestial Shift" ability, he created an oil painting that was supported by rose vines using a mirage spell.
"Not your paintings?" Leona looked at the illusion in confusion.
"You're really good at creating illusions in the dream wasteland," Leona praised while focusing on the painting.
The painting depicted a city in the middle of summer, which was viewed from the top of a mountain. The color was very strong, with a lot of saturated bright colors. Just by looking at it, it was as if one could feel the lazy high temperature of summer.
However, even after a long time, Leona still couldn't figure out the origin of the painting.
In the end, she saw the name on the bottom right corner of the painting: "Mirafael Feng".
"Is this the work of a magic artist?!" Leona exclaimed.
Angor nodded. "Yes."
Leona looked at the painting again. As a person who had never stepped into the art of painting, she only thought that the painting belonged to the category of good-looking. But when she heard that it was a painting by a magic drawing wizard, she looked at it again and again, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was beautiful.
She did not know what was so good about the painting, but it was more pleasing to the eye than before.
Leona pretended to admire the painting for a few minutes before she looked at Angor again. "As expected of a painting created by a wizard. It's full of history. I think I can see the flow of time in the painting."
Angor did not know what to say. Why do you think it's full of history?
Angor looked at Leona who was talking nonsense with a straight face and decided not to expose her.
"I'm going to hold an art exhibition. All the paintings in it are from magic artists." Angor changed the topic.
"An exhibition like this should attract many Adepts who are interested in art like me." Leona paused for a moment. "But I don't understand. Why do you want to hold an art exhibition like this? Just to show off the works of magic artists? "
"I found a bunch of Feng's paintings while I was out. They looked like ordinary oil paintings at first glance. But since the artist is a magic artist, I thought there might be some secrets hidden in them. "
Leona did not ask how Angor found Feng's paintings. Instead, she continued, "So, you want to use the exhibition to see if there are any secrets hidden in the paintings?"
"That's right." Angor did not plan to hide it. He could not stay in the dream wasteland forever. If any wizards found something hidden in the paintings, he would need Leona's help.
Leona considered Angor's words and felt that he might be right.
After all, Feng was a famous magic artist.
The paintings of Magic Painting Sorcerers were filled with mysteries and mysteries. Even the most ordinary oil painting might contain a secret that he had meticulously arranged.
"You're going to hold an art exhibition in the Mission Assignment Zone?"
Angor nodded. "There are a lot of wizards here, and they'll see my art exhibition more easily. But I don't think there are any buildings nearby that can hold an art exhibition. Maybe I should build a gallery for it. "
"That's true. But the Mission Assignment Zone is only temporary. We'll have to tear it down eventually. Even if it's popular now, it'll become a wasteland. So, I suggest we hold the exhibition in the new city. "
"It's not like it needs to be exhibited for long. This period of time should be enough."
Leona shook her head. "You can't just show a masterpiece like this for a few days. You should plan it for at least a year."
"Huh?"
Angor believed that the exhibition would be held for a few days only. But Leona did not agree. She did not think much about it before. Now that she thought about it carefully, she realized that this was a good opportunity.
Feng's paintings, even if they were just ordinary ones without any secrets, could be used as the foundation of art!
As the host of the upcoming century-old tea party, Leona believed that this was a great opportunity to show off her knowledge.
Imagine a group of witches walking around the new city during the tea party. They accidentally found an inconspicuous art gallery in the depths of an inconspicuous alley. They walked in curiously, only to find that the art in the gallery was actually a masterpiece by a magic painter!
What if someone told them that there might be more secrets hidden in the paintings?
Leona could even imagine the faces of those witches who loved to collect Feng Yu's paintings. Their faces would turn pale when they saw Feng Yu's painting.
Leona was very satisfied with the image in her mind.
She was going to hold an art exhibition with such great potential! And it had to be held for a long time!
At least until the end of the tea party.
"I don't think that's necessary. I've examined the paintings myself, and I didn't find any secrets. I just want to prove that I'm not mistaken. It won't take that long … "
"Even if there are no secrets, great works of art like these should be seen by more people. Only then can they live up to their existence," Leona spoke in a firm voice.
Angor was a little surprised by Leona's sudden righteousness. "Is that so?"
"Yes." Leona spoke without hesitation, "So you can't put this art exhibition in the Quest Zone. It'll be a waste if you tear it down. Let's go to the new city. I'll find you a better place!"
Leona dragged Angor to the new city.
Angor was going to say that the paintings were just illusions. Even if they were going to be exhibited for a long time, they could just put them in the Quest Zone and move them to the new city after the Quest Zone was torn down.
But before he could say anything, Leona had already led him to a building with a flashing neon sign and a rose pattern painted all over it.
Angor was a little surprised to see the building. It was Rose Aquarium, where Rhine was staying.
The building was decorated with beautiful patterns all over, which made it look quite artistic. Also, Rose Aquarium was located on the main road of the new city. There was an undeveloped area in front of it. Wizards and apprentices who accepted quests would often pass by this place.
Angor thought about it carefully and decided that this place was not bad. It would not be a disgrace to art if he used it for an art exhibition.
But before he could finish, he noticed that Leona did not take him inside. Instead, she led him to a dark alley behind the Rose Aquarium. They walked along the empty alley until they reached the end of it, where a manor house was waiting for them.
"Let's do it here!" Leona looked around and felt that this place was exactly what she imagined. Hidden in an inconspicuous alley was an art treasure that would amaze the outside world.
Just the thought of it made her excited.
Angor looked at the manor house in front of him. The manor house itself was exquisite. Since it was designed by Jon, it carried a hint of mystery and romance from Earth. It would be more romantic if Feng's paintings were placed there.
But! No matter how exquisite the paintings were, they could not ignore the fact that this place was so remote!
Who would come to an art exhibition in such a remote place?! By the time he left Tidal Realm, the number of people who would come here would probably be less than ten. This was completely against his original plan.
"No, not here." Angor showed his reluctance on his face.
Leona didn't expect Angor to reject her so vehemently. But she really did not want to give up on her idea.
In the end, after some discussion, they compromised and decided to hold the art exhibition in the Rose Aquarium outside before the tea party.
After the tea party began, they would move the art exhibition here to add some mystery to the art exhibition.
After reaching a consensus, Leona took Angor back to Rose Aquarium outside the alley and changed the second floor into an art gallery.
Leona's actions caused quite a commotion, so Mister Rein, who was on the sixth floor, also came here.
Iron Granny, Dumartin, and Iron Granny also walked down the stairs.
When they learned that Leona went to such lengths to help Angor with a painting exhibition, they were all surprised. Only when Angor displayed the hundreds of paintings did they realize what was going on.
Compared to Leona, both Iron Granny and Rein had lived long enough to appreciate art. Even Dumartin, who was born in a noble family, had a keen eye for paintings.
Therefore, when they saw the first painting, they knew it was the work of a magic artist.
As the first batch of visitors, they were very interested in Angor's art exhibition and began to look at the paintings one by one.
This was exactly what Angor wanted. Maybe Mister Rein and the others would discover the secret of the painting after they finished looking at it.
At first, Rein and the others thought that this art exhibition would be a gathering of famous artists.
But when they saw the seventh and eighth paintings, which were also the work of a magic artist, their expressions changed.
"All the paintings here belong to a magic artist?" Dumartin looked at Angor.
Angor nodded. "Yes."
"I know where some of the paintings are kept, but this is the first time I've seen so many of them gathered together." Iron Granny sighed in amazement.
"Most of their works aren't a secret. I've read about them from wizard magazines, but I've never seen any of them before. " Dumartin couldn't help but stare at Angor. "Where did you find so many unseen works?"
Dumartin's question was the same as everyone else's. Even Leona, who hadn't asked before, pricked up her ears.
Angor smiled mysteriously. "It's pointless to tell you where they came from. Why don't you take a look for yourselves? Maybe you can find something from them. "
No one cared that Angor was keeping them in suspense.
It was Angor's fortune to find Feng's paintings. Forcing them would only ruin their relationship.
Besides, what Angor said made sense. Maybe they could find something hidden in the paintings and figure it out themselves.
