After the filming was completed, I awakened my superpowers.

Chapter 108: The Magician Returns! Dinner Party Incident

Chapter 108: The Magician Returns! Dinner Party Incident
……

However, now is not a good time to look at specific entries.

Sheng Yixia temporarily focused on the social scene, only to hear Shao Jingqiu say with a generous smile: "Hey, what are you looking at? I just think Yixia is a newcomer with potential, and the future is limitless. I will help her if I can."

Seeing that they still seemed to have some doubts in their eyes, and even Zhang Qing cast a strange look at him, Shao Jingqiu said helplessly: "Okay, okay, actually I am quite familiar with the elders in Yixia's family, so is this okay?"

"That makes sense." Wu Zhibin laughed. "Okay, it's settled then."

Then, he patted Sheng Yixia on the shoulder and said, "Edit your action scenes later and send them to me."

Although he agreed, it doesn't mean he will ignore the quality of his film.

He wanted to take a look at Sheng Yixia's foundation first, and then tailor a training plan for him.

"Okay, Director Wu." Sheng Yixia agreed solemnly and exchanged contact information and added WeChat with Wu Zhibin.

"Call me brother, I'm not much older than you." Wu Zhibin said with a smile, "When I was young, I was also an idol."

Sheng Yixia looked at his weathered face and the deep crow's feet at the corners of his eyes. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "Okay, Brother Wu."

"Okay, then we'll talk later." Wu Zhibin patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, and then he and Shao Jingqiu chatted with Director Xu, General Manager Zhang, Director Li and others. He also said hello to the young people before leaving to say hello to others.

During this time, Zhang Qing also came over and exchanged business cards with Wu Zhibin after identifying herself to him.

After Wu Zhibin, Shao Jingqiu and the other two left.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Sheng Yixia.

Especially Mr. Zhang, the president of Xikun Entertainment, who had been indifferent before, suddenly became very enthusiastic towards Sheng Yixia: "Yixia, I heard that you are interested in joining our Fairyland Romance and are very interested in the second male lead?"

"I also like the role of Immortal Lord Bao Geng. Let's add each other's contact information and talk about this role together when we have time."

Sheng Yixia really wanted to reply, saying that he was more interested in the heavenly soldiers and generals in your crew, but he was not familiar with Mr. Zhang and did not want to talk to him, so he just did a standard social thing.

Even Director Xu became a little friendlier and warmer to Sheng Yixia, and even showed some concern for his recent acting career.

Sheng Yixia also responded modestly, saying that she wanted to learn more from Director Xu.

This scene made Zhang Yixu's mother, Aunt Li's eyelids twitch, and her sense of crisis suddenly increased.

She quickly glanced at her son, signaling him to go up and compete for favor, but she didn't expect that her silly son was like nothing happened. He just laughed foolishly beside her, looking at Sheng Yixia with some admiration, as if my brother Sheng is very powerful.

Only the boss director Li patted Sheng Yixia on the shoulder and said, "While Dr. Wu is still popular these days, let's quickly shoot a small extra episode for him to join the Pure Love Apartment. I'm leaving first."

Sheng Yixia nodded and watched the boss, Yao Jiaqi and others leave.

Yao Jiaqi secretly gave Sheng Yixia a thumbs up, winked, pursed her lips and pointed at the boss, indicating that she still had to serve him carefully and they would talk later.

Sheng Yixia couldn't help laughing. He felt that Yao Jiaqi was like a poor little assistant beside the domineering director. However, even though he complained about the domineering director's personality and style, he had to admit that the domineering director was still on his side in all aspects.

Every time he got into trouble, the boss would always provide support at the first opportunity. For this reason alone, the boss's temper was nothing.

And this time.

Han Ming and Song Baowen, the male and female protagonists of Fairyland Romance, also came over and said hello.

"Hello, Yixia." Han Ming was very elegant and extended his hand to him with a handsome and warm smile. "I am Han Ming. Please keep in touch with me and exchange acting experiences."

"Hello, Brother Han." Sheng Yixia was modest, but his eyes were shining. "Okay, okay. I hope Brother Han won't find me annoying when the time comes."

He Sheng Yixia really likes to share his acting experience with others.

"Haha, how could that be?" Han Ming obviously hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet, and smiled very enthusiastically, "You are welcome to come to me anytime."

Next came Song Baowen.

She smiled brightly and cheerfully: "Hello Yixia, welcome to join the crew of Fairyland Romance. I will protect you in this crew from now on. If anyone dares to bully you, you can come to me and complain, and I will help you win."

"Thank you, Sister Baowen." Sheng Yixia also said with a smile, "Then I will be a tyrant in the crew from now on. Don't rush to tell others when the time comes. Yixia, if you cause trouble again, don't betray your master."

"Haha."

Han Ming and Song Baowen both laughed out loud, and even Zhang Yixu was laughing happily along the side.

This scene almost angered his mother to death. This silly son was stabbed by Sheng Yixia without even realizing it.

Subsequently.

After chatting for a while, the few of them naturally dispersed and went to socialize with others.

This kind of dinner is a good opportunity to expand and consolidate one's network, so they naturally won't interact with the same group of people from beginning to end.

And with the previous episode, coupled with Sheng Yixia's attack on Zhao San's face last night, he also became a big hit in the circle and became a bit famous.

Zhang Qing also took this opportunity to start building various connections, passing around the business card that she had prepared for Sheng Yixia a long time ago, and making a name for herself in front of various people.

In today's charity dinner, in addition to people from the entertainment industry, there are also many wealthy businessmen and a small number of politicians. The former often represent capital, while the latter are huge energy that cannot be ignored.

This is why some people in the circle try so hard to squeeze into this circle. Even if they are at the bottom of the contempt chain, as long as they have the opportunity to hold on to one or two golden thighs, they may be able to flourish and rise to the top from then on.

And as time goes by.

The dinner was about to officially begin and everyone took their seats.

The table where Sheng Yixia and Zhang Qing were sitting was actually quite close to the front. Apparently, this was the seat originally arranged by the organizer for Director Zhao San and his group. Now that Zhao San was not coming, it was naturally a good opportunity for Sheng Yixia.

Her deskmates were all celebrities of some stature, so Zhang Qing naturally began to socialize, which was what she was best at, happily expanding her and Sheng Yixia's network and making use of their connections.

Sheng Yixia silently thanked Director Zhao San for his big rocket again.

After some pleasantries.

Sheng Yixia finally had the chance to check out his newly upgraded card control technique.

After all, his purpose in entering the entertainment industry was to draw cards. He thought, "System, check the [Card Control] card."

"Shh!"

A purple card exuding a noble aura appeared in his mind.

but.

Having experienced the royal demeanor of the golden card, he began to feel that the pattern of the purple card seemed a bit simple, and the purple energy was not rich and luxurious enough...

Ok.

Sheng Yixia admitted that he was a bit of a scumbag and began to feel that the purple best quality cards were just so-so. It was as if he had completely forgotten the excitement and sense of treasure he felt after upgrading the purple card for the first time.

Card Name: [Card Control]

Card quality: [Purple Best]

Skill Level: [Four Stars]

Card Introduction: [After equipping this card...]

[Item ①: [Light of Charm], Item ② [Light of Psychedelic], Item ③ [Change Card]. ]

Sheng Yixia focused on checking the new entry [Change Card].

The explanation of the term came to mind: [When performing card control, you can replace one of the cards at any time and anywhere. Note: You can only replace one card within 7.58 seconds. The time interval for replacing cards will be shortened as the grade of the card increases.]

That's it?

Sheng Yixia frowned slightly.

This is a purple skill entry, why does it look a bit lame?
Although changing cards sounds very high-end, and A Xing also used a similar trick to defeat his opponent in the Gambling King Extra Story, this thing is fine for magic performances and gambling, but in actual combat...

and many more!

Sheng Yixia suddenly had an idea in his mind and instantly became energized, feeling that this trick might be useful in actual combat.

Imagine the application scenario.

Suppose a card is about to hit the enemy, but the enemy does not feel any danger and takes no precautions. However, at the last moment, the ordinary card is replaced by a powerful joker card. What will be the result?
Or conversely, the enemy thought it was a hugely threatening monster card, and tried his best to dodge and parry, using all his skills, but in the end the monster card was replaced by an ordinary card. Wouldn't that mean that the enemy's skills were all deceived?

In this way, by making the empty appear real and the real appear empty, you can completely bring the enemy to collapse.

There is a head start.

When Sheng Yixia was excited to try [Card Swapping], Zhang Yixu got rid of his mom and ran to Sheng Yixia's table to join in the fun: "Brother Sheng, I was just browsing your Weibo and saw that you can play cards. It's so cool. Can you teach me?"

This young man has been a child star since he was young. His mother had strict control over him. He didn't grow up playing with other kids of his age. Under his mother's strict supervision, he never suffered any loss. Now he seems a bit "rustic".

"Playing cards requires skills and long-term practice. I'll send you a few teaching videos later, you can practice first." Sheng Yixia said, and suddenly a deck of cards appeared in his hand. With a flick of his hand, the cards unfolded like a peacock's tail. "Pick one at random and hide it. Don't show it to me."

Zhang Yixu suddenly became interested. He casually drew a ten of hearts, put it in his trouser pocket, and said excitedly, "And then?"

"Back off."

"Stand back again."

"Stand back again."

Zhang Yixu followed his instructions and retreated more than ten meters before stopping.

"Check the cards again." Sheng Yixia ordered.

Then Zhang Yixu took out the cards from his pocket again, took a look, and saw that it was still the ten of hearts, so he put it back into his pocket: "Brother Sheng, I'm done."

He was still a little cautious and held the cards tightly in his hand.

"Okay, then I'll start casting the spell." Sheng Yixia casually picked up a big ghost from the deck, blew on it, and flicked and crushed it with his fingers.

"Shh!"

The big ghost in his hand turned into the Ten of Hearts, and then he smiled and said to Zhang Yixu: "Take out the card you just played and see."

Zhang Yixu nervously and expectantly took out the cards he had been holding, but after taking a look at them, he was stunned. His mouth gradually opened wide, and his eyes were full of shock: "Ah Ba Ah Ba!"

He couldn't understand why he had been holding the Ten of Hearts, but it turned into a Big Ghost?
Zhang Yixu rushed over, his face flushed with excitement: "Brother Sheng, Brother Sheng, how did you do this? This magic is amazing."

"This is not magic." Sheng Yixia said seriously, "This is a superpower."

"Superpowers? Hiss~~" Zhang Yixu took a breath of cold air, "Brother Sheng also has superpowers?"

Just as Sheng Yixia was about to say something more, Zhang Qing beside him hit him angrily: "Alright, stop bullying Xiaoxu. This kid is honest to begin with. If he gets fooled by you, his mother will definitely come after you for the score."

as predicted.

Speak of the devil and he will appear. Within two sentences, Zhang Yixu's mother came over, looking as if she wanted to keep him by her side all the time.

Zhang Yixu quickly crouched down and said to Sheng Yixia, "Brother Sheng, I'm leaving first. Remember to teach me superpowers later."

As he spoke, he ran over to a few tables away to play with Han Ming, Song Baowen and the others.

And Sheng Yixia also took back the cards with a smile. He had just tried to change the cards and it really made no sense. He didn't do anything from beginning to end. He just changed the cards like that.

Even he himself couldn't figure out the reason.

Moreover, when Zhang Yixu drew the card, he quickly made a mark on the card with his fingernails. After changing the card back, the mark was still there... This means that he did not just change the face of the card, but actually swapped two cards!
This can only be explained by super powers.

Sheng Yixia was also slightly excited. It was indeed a purple entry, and it was completely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

And at this time.

The dinner officially began.

First, a leader gave a speech, and then left the venue surrounded by staff.

Next, Shao Jingqiu and Wu Zhibin, as hosts, began to interact with the audience on stage, and the donation process began soon.

This charity dinner is not a free meal.

As hosts, they each set an example and donated 15 million each to the earthquake-stricken areas.

Seeing this, the others also responded by donating.

Some donated two million, some donated one million, some donated eight hundred thousand, and some donated six hundred thousand.

Zhang Qing and Sheng Yixia discussed it secretly, as they didn't have much cash at the moment.

All I have now are some film remuneration plus additional publicity expenses.

The share of the revenue from the bionic girlfriend is just an estimated figure and is far from being received.

Therefore, they decided that the two of them would donate one million together, and the remaining money would be used for emergencies.

Considering their current status, this donation is relatively large. After all, there are many groups who donated one million in this event.

However, Sheng Yixia has no intention of comparing herself with others. When doing charity, one has to do it within one's means. Perhaps everyone has their own difficulties.

After President Chu of the Green Light Society donated 30 million in one go, the charity dinner reached its climax. One after another, stars who were good at singing and dancing came up to sing a song to add to the joyful atmosphere.

And in the banquet hall that accommodated hundreds of people, the atmosphere was jubilant.

The security check area at the elevator entrance was somewhat deserted.

The two security guards were chatting, even their well-trained standing posture was relaxed, and another person in security uniform came over leisurely, holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth, and pointed to the fire escape passage beside him. They immediately understood, took a look at the empty environment around them, and after confirming that there was no one around, one of them went to smoke a cigarette first.

Not long.

The man in security uniform came back and took over the guard duty from the remaining security guard.

The security guard who stayed behind immediately ran to the fire escape, but when he opened the door, he saw his companion lying on the ground with a pale face and a terrified expression.

He was startled and just as he was about to shout, someone covered his mouth and nose from behind.

There was still a strong smell of cigarette smoke between the man's fingers.

There was a "click".

The security guard's head was twisted 180 degrees, and his pupils were dull as he stared at the attacker.

The attacker was also wearing a security uniform and his appearance was no different from before, but his triangular eyes were flashing a strange crimson color, and his whole body exuded an extremely dangerous aura.

At almost the same time, similar things were happening at other entrances and exits of the banquet hall.

***
Same time period.

Outside the banquet hall, Xiaobai was leading several special forces members on patrol.

Xiaobai is an extraordinary person.

It has been more than a year since I officially joined the H City Branch of the National Non-Government Affairs Bureau, and I have been working with Sister Ya for eight months.

And his strength has remained at level D+ for more than two months. He feels that he has completely digested the extraordinary substances he ingested from taking evolutionary potions time and time again.

His own accumulation was sufficient, and after he was ready to accumulate some more points, he would apply to the organization for three C-level evolution potions to try to break through the bottleneck.

Once he successfully breaks through, he will enter the ranks of C-level transcendents.

At that time, he will be eligible to apply to form a new extraordinary team, and from then on Xiaobai will become Brother Long.

That's right.

The ID he used when he was hanging out was "Bai Long", a name he thought was pretty cool.

At this moment, Bai Long was leading several special agents on patrol while chatting with his fellow members of the Extraordinary Team through the headset: "Today's security mission is so boring. It's so boring."

"Xiaobai, just be content." Someone responded with a smile, "Today's mission was not dangerous after all, and I got a wave of points for nothing."

"No danger means I'm just getting points for nothing." Bai Long muttered, "When will I be able to save enough to buy a C-level evolution potion? When will I be able to let you call me Brother Long?"

A burst of laughter came from the communication channel.

Someone else said, "Alas, I really envy those members of the cult. As long as they pray to the evil gods they believe in, they can be granted a large amount of extraordinary substances, which they can absorb without restraint, and it is much easier for them to break through bottlenecks than for us."

"Even if we take the evolution potion, we still have to digest it slowly, work hard to adapt, and there will be bottlenecks to break through."

"Shut up." Captain Frost Crow's voice sounded, with a hint of anger in his cold voice, "Do you really want to turn into a monster? Do you think the evil gods are doing charity? Every bit of power they give must be returned tenfold, a hundredfold."

"Once you accept the gift from the evil god, your fate has already stepped into the abyss, and there is no turning back."

“Only the power that you absorb and digest bit by bit, truly belongs to you.”

"If anyone dares to mention this in the future, don't blame me for putting him in solitary confinement. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Captain." Several strong voices came from the other end of the communicator.

"Huh? Where's Nini?" Frost Crow's voice turned cold.

Everyone was chatting happily on the communicator, but she didn't hear the voice of the female team member.

To know.

Nini is usually quite talkative, so it's not like she would remain silent for such a long time.

"Could he have sneaked into the banquet hall and asked those celebrities for autographs?"

"Impossible. Even if I go to ask for an autograph, I can't turn off the communication."

"Huh? What's going on with this red mist...sizzle~~~"

There was a burst of noise in the communicator.

At the same time, the little white dragon let out a scream, and then the scream stopped abruptly as if someone was strangling his neck.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai!" Frost Crow, who was squatting on a high point outside the banquet hall, suddenly changed his expression, but a series of electronic noises came to his ears, and the communication was obviously seriously interfered with.

Wisps of red mist began to spread in the space outside the banquet hall.

"Information car, information car, please answer if you hear me, zizi~~~" It was still the electronic noise.

Frost Crow did not try to contact the information vehicle outside the hotel. According to the regulations when performing the mission, once the information vehicle lost contact with the mission team, it would immediately report the situation to the superiors and request support.

What she has to do is to ensure the safety of the team members and ordinary people present as much as possible before the support arrives.

Without any hesitation, she leaped into the air and jumped directly from the high point.

As the air blew, her black windbreaker flew up high, and with a "rustle" sound, a pair of huge black membranous wings opened from under her ribs.

The membranous wings were dark and dull, as if they could absorb the light, and the shape of the Frost Crow also became blurred, as if it was a black shadow passing through the air.

It was like a crow's wing, carrying her body across the sky and gliding quickly towards the location where Xiaobai was patrolling.

From here, it only takes her twenty seconds to reach Xiaobai's position.

However, the red mist floating in the air seemed to have sensed her movements and began to flow in wisps, connecting and interweaving around her, and soon formed a large crimson net like a spider web, floating in the air like a crimson curtain.

It blocked the air directly in front of the Frost Crow, as if waiting for the Frost Crow to fall into its trap.

Oops!

Frost Crow's heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.

And time.

A few minutes ago.

At the noisy and bustling charity dinner, singers were singing, people were toasting each other, and the atmosphere was very lively.

However, Sheng Yixia seemed to sense something. His brows suddenly furrowed, and he half-closed his eyes to feel something carefully. Then his face became serious, and he took out his phone to check...

The cell phone signal has disappeared.

All of a sudden.

Sheng Yixia's expression became more serious. He pulled Zhang Qing's arm, who was drinking with a film and television investor, and whispered in her ear, "Sister Zhang Qing, I need to go to the bathroom."

"Okay, got it." Zhang Qing's attention was all on the investor. She didn't care what he said and responded casually.

"Be careful and don't drink too much." After Sheng Yixia gave this warning, he stood up, straightened his suit, and walked towards the side door of the banquet hall.

Two security guards respectfully opened the door for him. He nodded politely and walked out. The side door of the banquet hall was closed again.

And at this time.

A small meeting room to the right of the banquet hall was filled with red mist.

The missing member of the Extraordinary Team, Nini, had her hands and feet all entangled by red spider silk, and was hung on the conference table in a spread-eagle position. Her mouth was blocked, her eyes were filled with fear, and she kept twisting her body and making a whimpering sound.

But those scarlet spider silks seemed to be some kind of mysterious supernatural substance. No matter how hard Nini struggled, she could not break free. Instead, they became tighter and tighter around her, sticking to her like a sticky liquid.

Hanging up with her was a handsome young man, who was also terrified, with despair in his eyes. This young man was Zhang Yixu, a former child star, but his physical fitness was far inferior to that of the extraordinary team member, and he seemed to have no strength to struggle.

"Shh!"

A young man in a vest and shirt made a humiliating gesture to the extraordinary female team members, and said in a gentle but strange voice: "Beautiful lady, please keep quiet and don't disturb the great Lord of Scarlet Moon from having a meal."

The young man was very handsome, with fair skin and a slender figure. The only flaw was that he was too thin.

At this moment, his slender phoenix eyes were glowing scarlet, and there was a morbid madness in his eyes, and the whole person was very abnormal.

On the conference table.

There was a fist-sized crimson crystal on the table. The young man cut his arm with a knife and drew a pentagram made of blood on the conference table, with the crimson crystal in the middle.

Strands of blood, like the flow of living things, all flowed towards the scarlet crystal.

"Great Lord of the Scarlet Moon, the manipulator of desire, the originator of life, your devout believers bless you..." After a series of prayer words, his whispering and crazy voice sounded again, "Your believers will offer you joyful tributes!"

As the words fell.

Waves of red mist diffused from the crimson crystals, dancing eerily in the room, enveloping Zhang Yixu and the extraordinary female team member Nini.

Such a strange scene made them shocked and frightened, and they couldn't help but struggle again.

However, as they struggled, their faces gradually flushed, their eyes gradually became fanatical, as if they were hazily covered with a hint of crimson, and the spider web that entangled them had been untied at some point.

The two fell onto the conference table.

Driven by some instinct and the red mist, they clung to each other, as if preparing to engage in some most primitive activity.

When the young man saw this, the crimson color in his eyes became more intense, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.

He held a dagger in his hand, ready to kill Zhang Yixu and the extraordinary woman Nini when they reached the happiest moment!
Dying when the desire for pleasure is strongest can greatly please the great Crimson Moon, allowing Him to grant divine power and complete today's Crimson Nest formation.

What made Zhang Yixu and the extraordinary woman most desperate was.

At this moment, although they were eroded by desire and their bodies acted instinctively, their consciousness was still clear. They could perceive all their actions and the touch of each other's bodies, but they could not control themselves.

"Woo!"

At this moment, Zhang Yixu felt aggrieved, desperate and angry, and tears were about to fall out.

Growing up, his body was still very pure, but he never expected to encounter such a thing and lose the most precious thing in this situation.

Li Moyu, why, why are you doing this? !
This young man named "Li Moyu" is also one of Zhang Yixu's self-proclaimed good friends. Some time ago, they made an appointment to act in "Fairyland Romance" together, helping each other and performing well in this drama.

But I didn't expect that when the two of them went out to the bathroom together, it would turn out like this.

at this time.

The time has come.

Li Moyu raised the dagger and looked at Zhang Yixu's eyes with fanaticism: "Xiaoxu, don't blame me. It is your honor to sacrifice your life for the power of the Lord of Scarlet Moon."

"You just returned to the embrace of the great ancestor of life before me."

"In the next life, we will be good brothers again."

Hearing this, Zhang Yixu's expression twisted, and he began to swear in his heart for the first time.

Damn it! I was blind to think of you as my brother! ! Woohoo, mom, where are you, Brother Sheng, Brother Sheng, don’t you have super powers?
help me!

Save me, woo woo woo~
Just when Zhang Yixu's mentality collapsed and he struggled hard, the dagger in Li Moyu's hand was about to stab into Zhang Yixu's heart.

"Shh!"

A poker card spun violently and whistled through the red mist, its target being Li Moyu's neck.

Who? ! !

Li Moyu was startled and quickly leaned back to avoid it.

Swish!
The poker card flew past his neck, and before he could rejoice, the card was caught by a silk thread. After staying in the air for a moment, it flew backwards at an even faster speed.

"Pfft!"

Li Moyu was caught off guard and was hit on the wrist by the playing card. Blood splattered and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang.

at the same time.

Li Moyu could hear the rustling sound of playing cards being shuffled.

He couldn't help but look up, and saw a person wearing a black cloak and a scary mask standing among the playing cards that were fluttering like butterflies.

The mask seemed to be made of some kind of wood, with a hideous appearance and strange patterns. A dark gaze shot out from behind the mask, which was extremely creepy.

The light from above shone on him, but it seemed as if it was distorted by some force, making him look magical and unreal, yet making people unable to take their eyes away.

However, although the cloaked man looked intimidating, Li Moyu developed a strong sense of closeness and admiration for him for some reason. He felt as if beams of light appeared in front of his eyes, dispelling the haze and darkness in his heart, as if bringing him back to the warm embrace of his mother.

His mind unconsciously became dazed. He forgot to be alert and to fight back. He just stood there in a daze.

In a daze, Li Moyu seemed to hear a low and hoarse voice echoing deep in his heart: "What's your name?"

That voice, while making him feel afraid, seemed to carry a sense of majesty that brooked no room for questioning.

It was like his father, who often beat him and his mother, came back.
