Chapter 413: Chapter 417, Premiere 2
Translator: 549690339
Minister Diaz had not forgotten his duty. When he came back to his senses, he immediately searched the ground for the pen that he had dropped.
However, the lights in the theater were too dim. Minister Diaz was old and his eyes were not very good. This made him very anxious. Besides being afraid of disturbing the movie experience of the next king, he was also afraid that he would miss out on some exciting parts.
Minister Diaz spent more than a minute to find the pen that had fallen to the ground. When he took the pen and sat back in his seat, he took out his notebook and was about to write something down, the roar of magical machinery from the surroundings made Minister Diaz stop what he was doing.
When he raised his head, the male lead in the movie had just pushed his wheelchair and slowly arrived at the square of the planet’s base.
Along with the sound of the machinery hitting the ground, a two-legged magical machinery walked past the male lead.
!!This was… a puppet?
Minister Diaz looked at the steel creation that was five to six meters tall in the picture. In Minister Diaz’s understanding, the magical puppet was just a ‘small toy’made of ceramic, the gears on the joints were engraved with inscriptions so that they could make some simple movements.
Some fanatical alchemists had been trying to make this process more practical. For example, Minister Diaz had seen the ‘Magic puppet for farming’at Nolan’s World Expo, but that puppet was more like a domestic animal that was only half the height of a human than a human.
However, in the picture, the steel-cast magic puppet exuded a metallic beauty. Even Minister Diaz, who was an outsider, understood that this magic puppet would definitely become the G.o.d of death on the battlefield.
“How did they do it?”
Minister Diaz looked at the steel-cast ‘aircraft’and the huge magic vehicles on the screen. Even the ground was paved with iron, he could not imagine where these terrifying magical machines came from.
“Although I don’t want to believe it, these extremely aggressive and beautiful magical machines were created by illusions,”Crodo III’s voice rang in Minister Diaz’s ears.
Illusions?
When Minister Diaz was still the manager of the theater, he had invited one or two illusion mages to help with their performances.
However, those illusionary mages could at most create some dark clouds, strange lights, and rainbows, as well as some dangerous beasts.
And the things they created could be seen to be fake at a glance, but the magical machinery in front of Minister Diaz did not look fake no matter how he looked at it!
If he looked carefully, he could even see the damaged scratches on the surface of the magical machinery, as well as the parts where the gears were engaged when the machinery was operating, and the magic particles that were spewing out from the cracks.
“I also… can’t imagine it, but I understand why you’re so confident in this movie, Your Majesty.”
Minister Diaz almost thought that Madam Caesar had dug up the mechanical magic-conducting machine from the ruins of the ancient civilization for the sake of filming this movie.
“Minister Diaz, the beautiful journey has just begun. Don’t you decide to go all the way before you decide whether or not to accept my orders?”Asked Crondo III.
Finish the rest of the movie? Minister Diaz’s understanding of “Avatar”was indeed only limited to the first few magic-guided machines that had shocked him.
But that was enough.
Because he clearly understood what the people of the country of steel wors.h.i.+ped. Other than powerful military force, it was the continuous improvement of magic-guided machine technology.
Perhaps the most advanced magical machinery was born in Nolan, but the country that was most pa.s.sionate about magical machinery was the country of steel.
Their artisans had invented countless magical machinery in Nolan, and the magical cars that gained the world’s attention at the world’s fair was only part of it.
Minister Diaz had enough reason to believe that any artisan who was obsessed with the rotation of gears and bearings, the docking of runes and magic, could not resist the aggressive magical machinery in the movie.
This was a kind of beauty that minister Diaz could not understand, but the people of the steel nation were obsessed with it.
“If His Majesty, Crondo, had allowed me to perform ‘this demon is not too cold’in the steel nation, I might have spent a lot of effort to convince those ‘barbarians’to sit down and watch the end, but for this ‘avatar’, I only need to tie them to their seats,”Minister Diaz said softly. “Just the ‘one shot’that Madam Cesar said can capture the hearts of the audience.”
… … ..
Joshua sat in the front few rows and watched avatar for two and a half hours
“Pandora, what a world to look forward to.”The purple-robed man sat beside Joshua, after watching the movie that she personally partic.i.p.ated in, she said softly, “Whether it’s those magical machines or another brand-new plane.”
“The future 300 years from now is not long for some immortal species.”When Joshua said this, he suddenly remembered that the purple-clothed person did not have much time left.
However, this sentence did not offend the purple-clothed person. A smile appeared on her calm face as she looked at Hiri, who was sitting on the other side of Joshua.
“I hope my successor can witness the arrival of this day.”
While Joshua was talking with the purple-robed person, the audience behind him was also discussing. Other than the voices discussing the plot, many people were asking how the shocking effects in ‘avatar’were achieved.
“Madam Caesar, you can’t be joking! I’ve worked with several illusion spellcasters before. How can those things in the movie be constructed from illusions? No matter how you look at it, it looks like… reality.”
“Don’t those Na ‘vi people really live in the Demon World? And those creatures and magic-conducting machines…”
“I think I’ve made it clear enough.”Mrs. Caesar’s cold voice sounded so clear in the noisy audience.
Many people in the audience began to doubt that the ‘Pandora’world in the movie was real. After all, they already knew that the movie was shot in the demon world.
They had never been to the demon world, and many people still thought that the demon world was a land of death covered in lava. However, the scenery shown in ‘avatar’had overturned their understanding.
In order to dispel these people’s misunderstanding, Mrs. Caesar even stood up and said loudly.
“Many scenes in this movie were constructed by illusions! and the one who constructed these illusions was a sage from Nolan, the purple-clothed merors.”
“Oh my G.o.d…”
“Nolan’s Sage was involved in the filming?”
The n.o.bles sitting in the audience could not accept the news that Mrs. Caesar had revealed.
Nolan’s Sage was second only to G.o.d to any spellcaster. These n.o.bles sent their children to Nolan to learn magic. If they were lucky enough to become an apprentice in the sage tower.., it would be enough for them to achieve an even more outstanding status than their parents when they returned to the country.
“You should feel honored. The respected sage Herlous is also sitting in the audience seat with us today.”Mrs. Caesar looked at the front row and the purple-clothed man.
The purple-clothed man did not reject Mrs. Caesar’s invitation. He stood up generously and lit up the dim environment with a light purple inscription in his hand.
At this moment, the screen started to play the list of actors behind the scenes. The purple-robed man’s name was at the front row of the list of actors.
“It’s really… sage Herlous.”
“What are you still sitting there for, Kid? Hurry up and stand up.”
The moment the purple-robed man revealed his ident.i.ty, all the n.o.bles present, including the conservative playwrights, stood up to greet the purple-robed man.
The only people who could sit were Jose and Hiri, who was next to Jose.
“I think you should put the cast list before the start of the movie,”Hiri said after secretly observing the reactions of the people behind him.
“Just say ‘this is a fictional story’before the start of the movie, and then attach the name of your mentor,”Jose answered in a low voice.
Although the purple-robed merors was not well-known in Nolan, it was also due to the decline of illusion magic. However, in every country, as long as a n.o.ble was in a high position.., they would remember the names of the Seven Sages of Nolan and their appearances.
