Chapter 990: Chapter 988: Height
Dead is only the former Tenth Disaster, the current Tenth Disaster remains unchanged within the film crew itself, it could even be said that what happened between the crew members was just normal personnel dispatching.
Located underground, the enraged Eighth Disaster didn’t dare to report back, in the end, he might end up breaking the rules himself and face severe punishment.
[Inside the Film Crew]
The shooting has ended but there’s still some time before the release, requiring post-production and editing.
The lead – Bandi Batol died in the final act, will continue to operate in the Dead Sea Kingdom as a deceased, under the direct management of Director Cao, naturally his position will not be low.
Inside the director’s office,
As one of the main responsible persons of the crew, he was almost in tears, the major reform brought by Yi Chen this time is really meaningful, he had long been tired of this fixed shooting mode, moreover, this collective enhancement has important meaning for the whole crew.
Of course, although mostly it is a good thing, there are also bad points.
Due to Miles’ complete death, the crew currently doesn’t have any substantial individual force to show, equivalent to turning from single focus to a collective cluster.
But when it comes to clustering, it certainly cannot compare with the special existence of the Eighth Disaster.
The overall strength has seriously declined, unable to speak on the disaster meetings in the future.
If the crew had enough development time it would be fine, but now malice is already infiltrating the main material plane, the final confrontation likely won’t wait for long.
“Mr. Yi! On behalf of the crew, I entrust you with something!”
“What?”
“I hope you can continue to retain the identity of a crew member, continue as one of us! If there’s any place we need to help in the future, such as plane transfer, or anything you need us to handle in the City of Evil, we will handle it for you immediately or support you in the identity of the Tenth Disaster.
If trouble finds us, I also hope Mr. Yi can help with the beheading.”
Yi Chen, hands in pockets, eyes indifferent, “What if my ultimate goal is to kill all malice?”
“If Mr. Yi truly reaches such a level, where he can kill all the disasters, then the entire cosmic domain’s fate will be in your hands, our crew too will benefit and witness your greatest slaughter, isn’t that good?”
“As long as you don’t mind, I’m willing to stay in contact with the crew, after all, this gives me a rare home-like feeling.”
The once-found ego of Yi Chen liked this gathering place of murderers very much, and the interactions during this period were considered quite pleasant.
Yi Chen’s fingernail lightly slid across the director’s desk, “Besides, I also need the help of the crew’s ‘stage’ to reach the same height as that guy, otherwise some things will be bothersome.”
“The Eighth Disaster?”
“No.”
“Could it be… William? Got it! Rest assured, as long as Mr. Yi is one of our crew, those who disrespect you will be our enemy.”
“Director, do you have any DVDs here that I haven’t seen?”
“Yes, yes! Just a moment, by the way, do you need some unfinished waste movies?”
“Bring them all, such flavors make great after-meal desserts.”
When the manager pushed over a suitcase full of DVDs, Yi Chen asked an important question before leaving,
“The former Tenth Disaster intends to use the highest-grossing movie as his new carrier, now that Miles is gone, what exact role do these movies or box office serve? Or what is the essence of box office?”
“By the way, Mr. Yi doesn’t know about the box office yet, regardless of Miles’ existence. Box office is emotion, we don’t need money here, which is useless.
The root of malice is emotion, feeling.
The audience watching the movie will be deeply drawn into it, and the special plot of Cult film can extract emotions related to madness, bloodlust, and slaughter within them and absorb into the projection machine.
Ultimately it will be converted into the ‘power’ of the entire crew, if Miles was still here, he would have taken the biggest share. Now it’s evenly split, making everyone motivated.
Of course, Mr. Yi’s share will not be less, I have a premonition this film will set a historic high.”
“Emotion is box office?”
Yi Chen’s expression was somewhat odd, he was not unfamiliar with such a mode, the formerly Fear Circus used this mode.
A temporary farewell to the crew,
Dragging the director’s suitcase out of the base, the mask being controlled by Yellow Skin was also worn on his body, or it was his unique piece, just stored within the outfit, further studying during the subsequent process is needed before it can officially be used.
Although killing the weak seems like an act of self-degradation to Yi Chen, after all, the number of ‘Billion Killings’ is listed here, combined with the malice, the condensed skin mask to be used as equipment, or decomposed by Yellow Skin into other things.
This relic would be able to challenge the strong in return, fulfilling the former’s wish.
Lene, a companion, also returned to the hotel with him, surprisingly encountering no attack from the Eighth Disaster on the way.
Additionally, Yi Chen chose to take a detour, bypassing that video store, although killing the ‘paralyzed’ previous rank Tenth Disaster, had gained substantial improvement.
But thinking about that old camera pointing at him still made him feel profoundly uncomfortable.
‘William also intends to act against that guy, not sure when it’ll truly happen… it likely won’t be direct confrontation, that would break the rules in the City of Evil.’
As Yi Chen pondered this problem, someone slightly tugged on his clothes.
“Lene?”
“Mr. Yi, are you alright…”
Yi Chen instinctively believed it to be because he had found his ego, “It’s nothing, this is my original appearance.”
“No, I mean…” Lene stepped closer with little steps, reached out and poked Yi Chen’s shoulder, a piercing pain reached the soul, “Because you are seriously injured, and have never treated the wound, just wrapped it roughly with skin disease.”
“Oh, just minor injuries.” Yi Chen actually forgot about this matter.
Lene, looking serious, “This is not a minor thing, if a conceptual injury is ignored, you will slowly… die.”
“I will trouble you once we return to the room, and thank you for the performance this time too.”
Uncertain if it’s due to finding his ego, the sincere thank you was said stiffly, even somewhat halted.
“Um… it’s nothing, I can only do these things. If it hadn’t been for Mr. Yi competing for this position within the crew, it would’ve been difficult to survive afterward.
By the way, Mr. Yi, do you plan to return or continue staying here?”
“Stay for a while, at least until the film’s release. If you want to return to the Sick Focus, I can have the crew send you.”
Lene promptly waved her hands refusing, “No need… I should follow you all the time~ otherwise, Mr. Yi, with your fighting style, if not careful could lose a limb or two.”
Additionally, William seems to be here too, although subject to some restrictions, I believe maybe we can rescue him.”
Yi Chen wanted to say something but swallowed back, indeed Lene’s almost BUG-like ability was very useful, allowing him to not worry about losing limbs in some critical battles.
Returning to the hotel.
Manager still behind the counter writing something, besides greeting added an extra word – ‘Congratulations’.
“Lene, go to the room first, I have things to discuss with the manager.”
“Oh! Take care of your injury…” Looking behind, Lene felt she was being overly talkative, hurriedly pressing the elevator button and closing the door, afraid Mr. Yi would scold her.
After the elevator left,
Unexpectedly there was another person in the hall, William was crossing his legs in the lounge area, reading the newspaper given to him by the hotel owner earlier.
“Congratulations congratulations! Yi… Chen you’ve finally arrived at this ‘level’, now we can discuss business.”
