Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 87 Want to win a magic video machine?

"Grandpa!" As the only designated fireball wizard in the Repin Spellcaster Academy, Karina hid the gift behind her back and slipped into her grandfather's study.

"Guess what gift I brought you?" Karina skipped to the table.

When she was a child, the other people in the family were always busy, and only her grandparents played with her.

Although her father always warned her not to disturb her grandfather's creations, Karina discovered that her grandfather actually liked playing with her.

Especially when the ideas are stuck and you can’t write the script.

Whenever the troupe came to ask for manuscripts, she would kindly make an excuse to act as her grandfather.

"Oh, it's not that I don't have any ideas, it's that my granddaughter kept clamoring for me to play with her, so I didn't have much time to write. Look, here I come again..."

Similar to this.

The grandfather and granddaughter work together very well, and little Karina usually gets a handful of candy after the one who urges her to submit her manuscripts leaves.

At this time, my grandfather was staring at the messy manuscript papers and pens on the table.

Obviously, I can't write anymore.

Although typewriters had been invented a few years earlier, Grandpa Carina insisted on writing by hand.

Claiming that this can bring more inspiration, it is a quirk of the creator.

However, today's typewriters are not necessarily more convenient than handwriting.

Each brand is promoting its own keyboard layout, and the market is a mess.

Later, a typing competition was held and Karina's grandfather went to watch. The keyboard layout used by the champion was called the best layout, which gave him an advantage in business.

But he felt that the man's fast attack might have little to do with the layout, but was purely due to his speed.

What did the people in the research institute say? They don’t even know how to control variables, so this is just a stupid experiment.

"Grandpa, don't be so sad. It's not easy for you to come to Twin Towers City. Why don't you take a break? Anyway, the script has already been handed over to the troupe."

“I felt like the last draft wasn’t good enough.”

Grandpa Carina took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

He has lived in the Royal City for a long time. This time he came to Twin Towers City because the Drama Guild was doing team building to prove that drama is a more advanced art form than magic shadow.

So we are preparing to stage an unprecedented great drama on the day the Magic Vision machine is launched.

He is one of the main screenwriters.

Although he is said to be one of the writers, in fact more than 60% of the content was completed by him, and the rest was mostly filled in by young and middle-aged unqualified screenwriters whose names could not appear in the promotional newspapers.

As for the other several "highly respected" main screenwriters who were listed in the script, their only contribution to the script was just being listed in the script.

"It's just a finished script, why worry about whether it's good or not? Besides, I think you guys are just..."

The carefree Karina realized that she was about to say something wrong, so she stopped immediately and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

"It's no match for the Demon Shadow, right?"

"I didn't say that, Grandpa."

"Ha, I don't think we can compete. We are the only old guys left. It's only a matter of time. It's obviously because of the support of our fellow villagers that we have today."

Grandpa became angry as he spoke and coughed several times before continuing to preach.

"As a result, I was chosen by the king to perform in the royal city. After I put on the formal dress, I no longer recognized my old customers. There are more and more rules, and they are becoming more and more difficult to understand. Sooner or later, I will rot in my small circle."

"Don't think about these unhappy things. Guess what gift I brought you."

Karina changed the subject abruptly. The doctor had warned people not to make the elderly angry as it was bad for their health.

"As long as it's not 'a tea gift bag for dad'."

"Ah!" Karina's face couldn't hide her feelings, disappointment and frustration were written on her expression.

Grandpa opened the drawer and took out gift packages one by one, saying as he took them out: "This is from your uncle, this is from your second aunt, this is from your third aunt, oh, and this one, your father just gave it to me.

"I'm wondering if you guys were fooled by the devil. Why are you buying this stuff together?"

"Wait!" Sharp-eyed Karina immediately discovered that the wrinkled corners of the gift box her father gave her looked very familiar.

Didn’t she accidentally fall on the road?
"He actually gave me to him and then gave it to you! No, Grandpa, you have to teach him a lesson!
"But don't be too harsh. He is my biological father after all. I think the mace next to the armor stand in the corner is quite suitable. After all, our family is also a scholarly family. We should convince others with reason."

"Alright, alright," Grandpa took the tea leaves from the angry Carina, "I like everything my precious granddaughter gives me. If there is a lot of tea leaves, just drink them slowly. It's said to be good for your health."

"How about this, I'll take you out to play! The Drogo Group is holding an event at the beach where you can win a magic camera by passing levels."

Karina had an idea.

"I'm already old, why should I try to overcome any difficulties?"

"You are only seventy years old, not old at all. Besides, it must be me who passes the level! Look, I'll win a magic video machine for you." Karina was eager to try. As for spells, she was not very good at them except for the fireball.

But when it comes to physical fitness, do you understand the value of the glory of the Repin Academy's athletes?

"Why not just buy a magic video machine?"

“It’s never as satisfying to buy as it is to win!”

Under Karina's coquettish tactics, Grandpa followed her out the door "very reluctantly".

seaside.

Golden Sands Beach is a tourist destination on weekdays, and now because of Drogo's event here, it is even more crowded.

From afar, Karina saw the track built on the sea.

There are several of them in total, and it seems that the mechanisms are all wrapped in sponges. If they are knocked down, they will fall into the sea. There are many safety guards in the water, so there should be no danger.

The dwarf host passionately explained: "Let us welcome the next contestant. He is from the Roman Empire and is a professional soldier on vacation. I hope he can give a wonderful performance.

“Although the Magic Vision Machine cannot be used in the Roman Empire for the time being, please rest assured that the Drogo Group will definitely deliver the Magic Vision to every corner.

"Look! This contestant is indeed a soldier. He ran across the conveyor belt in just a few steps and came to the obstacle turntable. Be careful not to be hit by the stick. Oh! It seems that the second level can't stop him at all..."

This athlete was obviously very strong. He crossed the track as if it were flat ground, reached the finish line, and broke the time record.

The spectators were not in high spirits. Rather than seeing someone actually move the magic camera away, they preferred to watch people fall into the water in various postures.

And watching the beautiful girl in a swimsuit get stuck in the "bumpy platform" level.

After watching it, Karina was full of confidence, she was really good at it.

Come to the registration area.

"Hello, I want to sign up!"

"Okay, fill in the basic information first. A doctor will briefly check your physical condition later. Do you agree that the footage of you passing the level will appear in the magic viewer?"

"sure, no problem."

"Okay, please choose the track you want to challenge. There are strength, agility, and decryption types. Each track has three levels of difficulty: normal, elementary professional, and advanced professional."

"Then, Agile type, primary professional."

"Okay, there are 22 contestants ahead of you. You are expected to go on stage in two hours. Just arrive at the waiting area within 15 minutes after your number is called."

The staff member glanced at Karina with a hint of scrutiny.

"Of course, if you want to go on stage as soon as possible, you can use the priority channel if you wear the clothes provided by the program team."

She pointed to the side and saw a swimsuit that was so cool that it almost looked like something only a succubus would wear.

"I……"

"No!" Grandpa shouted.

The staff member glanced and pointed to the other side. "We also have swimsuits for men. The Drogo Group promises to treat audiences of different genders equally."

"It's not that I want to participate."

"Grandpa, didn't you have a lot of fun watching what you saw just now?" Karina really wanted to win the Demon Vision as soon as possible.

"You can look at it, but you can't wear it!"

"Double standards——"

"That's double standards! It's not okay anyway!"

Finally, Grandpa dragged Karina to the audience to wait.

There are several 55-inch magic TVs in the auditorium for people to watch when they are bored.

Many people looked up at the magic video machine hanging in the air, like students in the cafeteria who were so engrossed in watching Tom and Jerry that they forgot to eat.

After a section of storytelling is finished, it is time for commercials and a program preview appears at the bottom of the screen.

"Magic Shadow 'Hunting'..."

"Ah." After watching the trailer, Karina felt like an eggplant hit by frost.

"What's wrong?" asked Grandpa.

“I want to cry right now when I see this name.”

"It's impossible to be that exaggerated. I have to take a good look at it and let you know what experience is."
