I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 533

Su Fan raised his hand, and a stack of white paper fell into his hand from the Pot Heaven space.

The sharp sword intent replaced the scissors, neatly and uniformly cutting them into the shape of paper figures.

The avatar, created using the techniques of spraying and paper dolls, is not particularly powerful, and its supernatural abilities are incomplete. The only thing worth mentioning is its aura, which is almost identical to that of Su Fan himself.

This weakened version of himself perfectly matched the cult members' impression of him as "still recovering from serious injuries."

As long as one leaves a card inside the manor villa and combines it with the concealment technique recently created by Su Fan, one can secretly travel to any place in London.

He discovered that his identity as a self-taught cultivator was quite advantageous. Not only could he observe the undercurrents in London from the perspective of ordinary cultivators, but whatever he did would not be treated with caution by the enemy.

No wonder so many protagonists in cultivation and fantasy novels like to use an alternate identity.

While Su Fan was thinking this, his hands did not stop moving.

After cutting the paper into the shape of a human, I used my spiritual power to draw patterns on it.

Combining his knowledge of weapon crafting, he figured out a suitable trajectory for the flow of spiritual energy. By imprinting it onto a paper figure, he could make it move more nimbly and freely.

If the power provided by the jetting is the bone supporting its movement, then these patterns are the muscles and soft tissues that wrap around the bone.

After the paper figure was completed, it underwent a process of vaporization, and its size rapidly expanded at a visible rate until it was indistinguishable from a normal person.

"Show me a set of punches."

Upon hearing Su Fan's instructions, the paper figure nodded human-like, then assumed the starting stance of Bajiquan in the middle of the courtyard and began to fight with great force.

Despite its seemingly light and airy paper body, its movements are full of power, each move is quite impressive, and it can even make a popping sound like popping beans.

Su Fan was very satisfied with the paper figure's performance.

The paper doll next to Liam in the building could do the same thing, or even better than the one in front of him, but the fact that a mass-produced paper doll could be compared to a meticulously crafted masterpiece from the past was of extraordinary significance.

The ability is good, but what about the range of control?
Su Fan intended to test the limits of the paper figure's movement, and with a thought, he began to cast a spell.

The paper figure was immediately lifted up by a force and steadily rose, quickly breaking through 100 meters and continuing to climb towards a height of 1,000 meters.

As the altitude increased, the airflow became stronger, but it could not shake the paper figure, which remained as stable as ever.

300 meters... 500 meters... 800 meters... 1000 meters... 1500 meters...

Before ascending two thousand meters, the paper figure showed no abnormalities. After that, Su Fan could clearly feel that the spiritual power it contained was being depleted.

The environment at high altitudes is much harsher than on the ground, resulting in higher spiritual energy consumption. Roughly estimated, within a radius of about three kilometers on the ground, there are no problems with either combat or infiltration.

If recall is not considered and it is used as a disposable item, its usage radius can be extended to a radius of approximately seven to eight kilometers.

Suicidal paper doll self-destruction? Sounds good, very effective against grunts, but the world isn't completely in chaos yet, so this method isn't very useful for the time being.

Su Fan retrieved the paper figure in the air, then painted the same pattern on the remaining paper figures one by one, before exhaling a breath containing spiritual energy.

With this, the first batch of mass-produced paper figurines has been completed.

"Su Fan!"

He had just put the paper figures into his spatial storage when he heard Theresa calling from behind him.

The latter's voice was relaxed and cheerful, as if he had received some good news. "Look at this."

Theresa handed Su Fan a colorful entertainment weekly.

Below the front-page headline is a photo that is clearly taken from a candid angle.

The woman was wearing a short black down jacket, a sweater, black jeans, and familiar Martin boots. She covered herself completely with a hood and mask, but her figure and aura alone were enough to attract the attention of those around her.

Next to the photo is a familiar, beautiful face, with a brightly colored artistic title next to it.

[Hollywood's new princess spotted late at night at British airport—next stop: film set or her inner thoughts?]

"Anne? What's she doing in Britain?"

Memories of his past with Annie surfaced in Su Fan's mind, and he subconsciously asked a question.

Why can't she just focus on making movies and living her own life in Hollywood, California?
Britain is visibly turning into a quagmire, and coming here now is by no means a wise move.

"I don't know, but isn't this a good thing?"

Theresa didn't think too much about it and seemed quite happy.

After an explanation, Su Fan learned that the two had exchanged contact information after the Malthus incident.

Anne was a successful actress in the entertainment industry, and she was very adept at interpersonal relationships. After Theresa returned to the Vatican, Anne frequently donated money to the convent where Theresa lived.

Theresa was already an outstanding student at the convent and was well-liked by the elders. Later, when it was discovered that she could even raise funds for the convent, she was treated like a precious gem. This made her quite embarrassed, feeling unworthy of the honor.

So occasionally, he would send Anne some crosses that he had blessed through logistics.

These crosses, imbued with genuine holy power, have a calming and soothing effect, and can help ward off evil when necessary. For Anne, who has seen the other side of the world, their value cannot be measured in money.

Through this back-and-forth exchange of gifts, the two became acquainted.

"You two have a good relationship and see each other frequently, how could you not know if she came here to film a movie?"

Su Fan suddenly frowned, took the weekly magazine from Theresa's hand, and glanced at it.

The paper is too soft and cheap, the content is unoriginal, and the writing is a mess, which shows that this weekly magazine is of poor quality.

The firsthand news was obtained by such a low-class magazine, while other mainstream media remained silent.

Su Fan paused, his fingers stroking the paper, and looked up to ask Theresa.

"Has she not been filming for a while?"

"..."

Theresa was taken aback by the question and carefully recalled her past conversations with Anne.

"It seems so. At first, I could still hear some sounds from the film crew and the makeup artists talking, but later during the call, it became very quiet..."

Filming movies and TV series is not an easy job. Given Annie's status, it's impossible for her to participate in low-budget productions. She usually has to work on set for about a quarter of the year.

When his schedule is too full, he might even be working on several film sets at the same time.

What does it mean to have no acting jobs?
