How did I become the Lord of Evil Gods?

Chapter 171 Entertainers, Actors, Singers, and Bards

"Hmph, do you really want to save this baby dragon?"

The actor playing the witch on the stage snorted coldly, and punched the ground hard with the staff in her hand.

"Yes, it is."

The girl named Liuliya said firmly even though the fear in her eyes could not be concealed.

"it is good."

An evil smile appeared on the witch's face. She glanced at the dragon egg carried by the girl behind her and said softly: "Let's make a deal."

The two leading actors stood on top of the stage, and their superb acting skills even made people forget that this was just a drama.

The audience's breathing gradually became faster and their eyes did not want to leave the stage for even a moment.

"He is a transcendent of the [Artist] series. It seems that he should be a second-level [Actor] profession." Breonna explained to Yun Mu in a low voice at this time.

"Is there such a profession?" Yun Mu was surprised when he heard Breonna's words.

"Of course." William on the side explained to her in a low voice: "As long as it is a concept recorded in the ether, any ordinary profession can become the strongest in the world."

"The extraordinary ones in the [Artist] series gain power from the emotions invested by the audience."

"Can you briefly explain this profession?" Yun Mu asked curiously.

"No problem!" William nodded immediately and agreed.

"Unlike most incomplete professions created by unofficial organizations, the extraordinary professions in the artist series have a detailed advancement process from level one to level four."

"First-level artists have greater control and flexibility over their bodies and can complete performances that are difficult for most ordinary people to complete."

"Like most first-level professions, artists have a certain degree of physical enhancement and melee combat capabilities, but their fighting methods are... uh, a little special?"

When William said this, his face looked a little strange and said:

"Throwing throwing knives and poisonous needles is understandable, but I have also seen people throwing cards and using them as weapons. In addition, there are also people who hide blades under their shoes, throw firecrackers, and ride unicycles and wield swords."

oo

"This can only be said to be very consistent with my impression of an artist." Yun Mu imagined that kind of fighting style in his mind.

I have to say that although it is a bit flashy, it does fit in with people’s impression of street performers.

"What about the second-level actors?"

She glanced at the drama going on on the stage in the distance.

As an extraordinary person, it is not difficult for her to do two things at once. Even if she is chatting here, she can record what happens on the stage.

"Actors are much more powerful." William also glanced at the girl on the stage not far away and said, "An actor's ability is not fixed."

"They can use the abilities of the characters they have played in the past, and the more deeply the audience is impressed by the character, the stronger the abilities will be."

"So every extraordinary person in the actor profession has a variety of abilities, and the intensity of some characters will far exceed that of normal second-level extraordinary people."

"But on the other hand, once they are forgotten by their own audience, the intensity of their abilities will drop significantly. Therefore, extraordinary actors in the actor series need to frequently appear in front of people and constantly appear in dramas."

"Then wouldn't it be easy for them to be targeted by official extraordinary people?" Yun Mu thought for a while and asked.

"That's right, so most of the extraordinary people in the artist series are in a state of cooperation with our officials." William nodded.

"Just like the Artists Guild."

"Oh~"

Yun Mu nodded in understanding, and then returned his attention to the stage.

Only at the end, she asked about the professional names of the [Artist] series of expert and master levels.

Singers and bards?

What a great experience.

There is such a profession that relies on the audience to gain power

I wonder if this profession will develop even more vigorously in the future if the Internet appears in this world?

Without thinking about it any further, Yun Mu and Breonna peacefully enjoyed the drama on the stage.

A witch named Padora made a deal with the girl Liuliya and chose to help her lift the curse on the dragon egg.

But this curse is so vicious that even the Padora Priestess can only suppress it but cannot completely remove it.

In order to allow the baby dragon in the dragon egg to be born smoothly, Padora told the girl that she could transfer the curse that escaped from the seal every day into the girl's body through a contract.

This way the baby dragon in the egg will not be affected by the curse.

However, this is only a temporary solution, because once the girl dies, the curse transferred to the girl's body will still flow back into the baby dragon's body.

According to the content of the deal, after the death of the girl and the young dragon in the dragon egg, everything about the girl and the dragon egg will belong to the witch Padora.

"This witch woman is pretty good." Seeing this, Yun Mu couldn't help but complain.

She obviously just needs to do nothing and let the baby dragon be cursed and killed, so that she can obtain the material of the dragon egg, but she insists on completing it through a 'trade'.

Could it be that in this era, stage play directors have discovered the attribute of tsundere? ?

"It's not too late to regret now." The witch Padora said, looking at the trembling girl standing in the center of the ceremony in front of her.

"No." After hearing her words, Liu Liya just shook her head lightly and said, "Please hold a ceremony."

"Okay, this is what you asked for."

The witch Padora said helplessly, and then began to perform the ceremony.

I saw her raising her staff high and chanting an unknown spell.

A gust of cold wind suddenly blew through Nuanxue Park, causing all the spectators present to shrink their necks.

The ceremony went very smoothly, and the curse in the dragon egg was successfully suppressed by the witch Padora. However, what was surprising was that when the special effects smoke dissipated on the stage.

The image of the two leading actors who appeared in front of everyone has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The girl Liuliya's pupils turned into animal pupils, and tough dragon scales grew on her body. Behind her spine, a slightly fat tail appeared.

However, before people could be surprised by the image change of the girl Liuliya, the witch Padora on the other side was transformed into a terrifying witch with short stature and wrinkled face.

Transformed into a graceful young woman wearing a black short dress, high heels, and a wizard hat with a star pendant on her head.

"Has the transformation spell failed?" The witch Padora murmured in a voice that could be heard by all the audience present.

pat!

With a slight snap of her fingers, the figure of the witch Padora gradually shrank, and then returned to the appearance that the audience saw at the beginning.

The beast eyes, dragon scales and dragon tail on the girl Liuliya's body were gradually fading away at this time.

When all these characteristics of the dragon disappeared, as if all her strength had been drained, the girl Liuliya collapsed to the ground and passed out.

The plot of the first act ends here. Because the stage is simple, the curtain is not drawn here. The staff simply turned off the lights and began to arrange the props needed for the next performance.

"Are those just illusions?"

Taking advantage of this gap, Yun Mu asked Breonna on the side.

Just when she was performing the so-called ritual and when the witch Padora snapped her fingers, she felt a weak spiritual fluctuation.

In other words, the transformation of the witch Padora and the dragon scales growing on the girl Ruriya are not special effects on the stage.

Rather, it is an illusion created using extraordinary power!

"It's not an illusion, it's a transformation." Before Breonna could speak, William on the side spoke first.

"I didn't mean to interrupt, it's just..." Looking at Yun Mu and Breonna looking at him, William explained with some guilt: "I actually know those two leading actors."

"They are a pair of sisters. The elder sister's name is Aisanni, who is the actress who plays the witch, and the younger sister is the heroine Liuliya, whose real name is Ronora."

"As far as I know, Isani has a mage character who can use lame transformation, which can change the appearance of people or things, but it can only be effective on one unit at the same time."

"That role was the role she played when she was becoming an elite actor. The main content of the drama is about an ugly man who used the transformation technique to change his appearance and fall in love with the heroine. After that, his true appearance under the transformation technique was finally discovered. The story of the other party still persisting and finally accepting himself."

"She must have used the deformation spell to change her sister's appearance just now, so the deformation spell on her body was lifted."

"Aren't they afraid of being discovered by ordinary people when they use extraordinary power like this?" Yun Mu asked curiously.

"Of course not." William chuckled softly and said, "Normal people rarely think in that direction, and smart Winter City people will always come up with multiple reasonable explanations."

After a pause, he looked towards the top of the stage and said, "I just didn't expect to see the two of them here."

"If I guessed correctly, they should be trying to create two more powerful characters this time."

"A girl with the power of a dragon and a mysterious and powerful black wizard?" Yun Mu recalled the plot at the end of the scene and complained.

In the process of receiving the curse in the dragon egg, the heroine gained the ability to transform into a dragon.

This is the unfolding plot of Feng Aotian in another world.

I think you are a little too ahead of your time.jpg

"I think it's quite interesting." Breonna commented at this time.

"Although the twist in the last scene seems a bit blunt due to insufficient preparation, this way of delivering a large amount of information to the audience in a short period of time can indeed make people feel refreshed."

"And the first act of the play ends here. I think most people will want to stay here and wait for the second act to begin."

"I understand, breaking the chapter at the critical moment, I'm familiar with this." Yun Mu said with a look of reminiscence on his face.

Whether it was when she was drawing a book or drawing pie for her fans, she had used this similar technique.

In fact, it's not that she deliberately kept her fans' appetite there.

It’s just that at that time, the content of one episode was already completed, and the number of pages was enough!

If you continue to draw, every additional page will be her loss!

Naturally, it can only be stopped there.

Therefore, whether there will be out of context depends entirely on luck and has nothing to do with her subjective thoughts.

Really, if you don’t believe it, you can look at her sincere eyes through the screen and text.

Hey~

"The second act is about to begin."

At this time, Yun Mu, who had dark vision, spoke after noticing the changes in the scene on the stage.

I saw the opening of the second act on a wild road.

Against the background of the forest, a carriage with one wall removed so that the audience could see the interior of the carriage was slowly 'driving' above the road.

"Humph, you finally woke up?" The witch Padora sat opposite and said as she looked at the girl Liuliya who had woken up from the carriage seat.

"This, here is"

The girl Liuliya looked around with a blank expression. After noticing that there was nothing wrong with the dragon egg next to her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tsk." Noticing Liuliya's expression and movements, Padora curled her lips in disdain.

"This is on the way to the Kingdom of Typhon. According to my investigation, the guy who put the curse on the dragon egg should be in that country."

"Don't forget." Padola reminded Liuliya, "As long as the curse has not been eliminated, more and more curses will be transferred to you."

"It doesn't matter to you now. When you are really going to die, that dead dragon egg will be mine."

Perhaps to show the strength of the witch Padora, Liuliya had another conversation with the witch Padora here.

"Well, if I die, what will you do to this dragon egg?" Liu Liya glanced at the dragon egg with some concern.

"If you are killed by the curse, the baby dragon in this dragon egg will not survive." Padora explained.

"Dead dragon eggs don't mean much to me, but resurrecting them as undead can also give birth to young bone dragons."

"If it undergoes some training, it would not be a bad idea to grow into a complete bone dragon."

Having said this, Padora smiled sinisterly and said: "Of course, I can also train your corpse into an undead knight. When the time comes, you can still fight side by side."

"Jie Jie Jie."

Liu Liya: "Gan, thank you for your kindness, but it's better not to use it."

"Then again, if an actor plays a character who can blow up planets with one punch, and that character is very popular, what happens with the ability to use that character?"

Listening to the witch Padora's words about summoning the bone dragon, Yun Mu suddenly thought of something and asked the two people beside him.

"Nothing will happen."

Breonna said calmly.

"In the storyline, the power of the character is necessarily different from the power that the extraordinary person can really exert."

"It's just that some specific settings cannot be changed."

"For example, the transformation technique of the miko lady can only be effective on one target at the same time. Obviously, it cannot be changed."

　ps: The transcendent setting of the [Artist] series is also very interesting.

　　When I first wrote the book, I also considered whether to use the profession of this series as the protagonist's profession.

　　But then I thought about it, and a painter was more suitable.

　　So this profession should be left to supporting actors.
