Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

"Lin Yuan, it's almost time."

Through my headphones came the voice of Miller, the wedding's director for the day.

“No problem, I’m ready, let’s begin.” Lin Yuan pulled GAKKI and Charlize Theron to sit atop the sand dune.

Below were densely packed crew members, each dressed in a steampunk style. In addition, there were stacks of scrapped V8 tank engines forming an altar and discarded oil drums cut into seats, making the wedding venue a complete post-apocalyptic wedding.

"What a unique wedding!" GAKKI-chan exclaimed.

Charlize nodded in agreement: “Indeed, I’ve never seen a wedding like this before, it’s so exciting and thrilling.”

She has attended many other Hollywood star weddings, such as Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's, but this is the first time she has ever seen such a scene.

Both the atmosphere and the sense of immersion are top-notch.

"All units, take your positions!" Director Miller's voice crackled over the radio. "The newcomers will arrive in five minutes."

Upon hearing the instruction, Lin Yuan tidied up her appearance.

Tonight, he was dressed in the same post-apocalyptic punk style, wearing a worn-out brown horsehide tactical jacket, wide-legged distressed jeans, and riding boots. The white bandages inside added to the sense of decadence.

"They're here!" someone suddenly shouted.

Looking at the defensive line pointed out by the crew member, one could see a curtain of sand rising behind the sand dunes under the golden sunset.

Amidst the sand, the roar of motorcycle engines filled the air, a sound like the howl of a wounded beast, giving one an extremely wild feeling.

"Boom boom boom!"

With the roar of the motorcycle, Mentao drove the red and black "Black Widow Chariot" through the sand curtain and headed straight for the venue.

The skull logo at the very front of the car is adorned with a fresh wreath, making it look both terrifying and funny.

In the passenger seat, Scarlett Johansson abandoned her usual elegant image, wearing a wedding dress made from a modified motorcycle jacket, the skirt sewn together with countless copper fragments, making a series of crisp clanging sounds as the vehicle bumped along.

His long golden hair danced wildly in the evening desert wind, and his lips were painted a dark red, like a desert rose.

The chariot braked suddenly twenty meters from the altar, the flames spewing from its rear drawing a perfect heart shape on the sand, the edges still burning.

“It’s even better than I imagined,” Scarlett said to Meng Tao with a smile, her teeth shining white in the firelight.

The guests responded wildly to the arrival of the first couple.

The people banged on the dining table in front of them, making a clanging and clattering sound, as if countless pots and pans had been smashed.

"Meng Tao, you were so cool today!"

Scarlett, you look absolutely stunning tonight!

"Hahaha, I don't care if they're good-looking or not, I had a blast tonight!"

Upon hearing this, the guests were taken aback at first, but then burst into unrestrained laughter.

Yes, I've had enough of those serious and rigid weddings!

Nowhere else can you find such freedom and unrestraint as tonight's wedding.

Tonight's wedding is a post-apocalyptic wasteland theme, and they're all playing thugs, so they don't have to worry about any etiquette and can freely let their passion run wild.

As Meng Tao and Scarlett arrived, a completely different sound came from another direction in the dunes.

That wasn't the roar of a motorcycle engine, but some kind of mechanical, rhythmic "clicking" sound.

Everyone turned to look and saw Johnny Depp and Amber Heard riding slowly towards them on a steampunk-style mechanical camel.

It was a monster created by the props team using parts from "Immortal Joe's" vehicle in the movie—the humps were two copper boilers, the eyes were glowing rubies, and with each step it would spew steam with rose-scented essence from its nostrils.

Depp, dressed in a tuxedo riddled with patches, looked like a fallen aristocrat.

Amber Heard's wedding dress was made entirely of transparent, rigid plastic and filled with a glowing blue liquid.

"Are we late?" Depp jumped off the camel and helped his wife down. "We encountered a sandstorm on the way, and a stretch of quicksand that seemed utterly hopeless. Fortunately, Lin Yuan guided us."

Upon hearing Depp's words, everyone paused for a moment, then burst into laughter again.
"Damn Depp, who gave you permission to act now? You're so dramatic, but I like it."

"Depp, I didn't realize you were such a smooth-talking sycophant!"

"Depp, your camel is so cool. Let me ride it around a few times later."

The joyful atmosphere in the venue brought a smile to Lin Yuan's face.

It was his idea to have Depp ride a camel on his entrance.

For Depp and Amber Heard, the accident a few days ago has become the most reliable link between them.

There was no prince riding a white horse, but an equally valiant man galloped in on a camel.

Nothing is more suitable for Depp and Amber Heard's transportation tonight than a camel.

At this moment, the last rays of the setting sun had gradually faded, but the venue was not plunged into darkness.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

As the cowhide drum was struck, the two ten-meter-high "flame totem poles" on either side of the altar were ignited.

That wasn't an ordinary flame, but a specially formulated blend by the special effects team—mixed with copper powder and lithium salts, which produced an eerie blue-green hue when burning, illuminating the entire ritual area like will-o'-the-wisps.

It evokes a sense of wildness from a primitive era, yet also exudes a vibrant and vigorous vitality.

"Please invite the two newlywed couples to come onto the stage!" Miller's voice came through the loudspeaker.

Meng Tao helped Scarlett and Depp held Amber's hand as the two couples walked onto the Flowing Sand Galaxy Walkway in the center of the guest seating area.

As they stepped onto the walkway, the glass tunnel beneath their feet lit up with blue pulses of light with each step, as if they were walking on a flowing galaxy.

This scene captivated everyone present.

"It's so beautiful!" Charlize exclaimed beside Lin Yuan.

"It's like a dream." GAKKI-chan was equally captivated.

But they quickly seemed to realize something and shut their mouths tightly, not saying another word.

Lin Yuan could certainly see the envy and slight disappointment in their eyes.

They are better able to understand their thoughtfulness and understanding.

So Lin Yuan took the initiative to say, "Don't envy them, I will give you an even grander ceremony."

"Really?" *2
Overwhelmed with joy, GAKKI and Charlize had already lowered their expectations to the bare minimum, since being able to stay by Lin Yuan's side was enough for them.

While I might envy weddings, they seem insignificant in comparison.

But when Lin Yuan makes a promise now, they can't help but feel happy.

"Yes, I always keep my word. We'll use them as guinea pigs tonight to gain experience for your future wedding," Lin Yuan replied confidently.

The two women nodded enthusiastically, their faces beaming.

"It's my turn to go on stage now. Have fun tonight," Lin Yuan said with a smile, before climbing up from the back of the stage.

When the two couples stood on the stage, Lin Yuan also came to the center of them at the right time.

"Good evening, fellow war boys!" As soon as Lin Yuan opened his mouth, thunderous applause and clapping erupted from the audience.

"The officiant is so popular, we've become supporting characters," Depp muttered under his breath. Amber Heard, standing nearby, immediately pinched him hard: "Who saved our lives?"

"I was just joking, how could I possibly be really jealous of Lin Yuan?"

"You can't even joke around!"

"..."

For the first time in a week, Depp felt a mix of emotions as he tried to get back at the usually fierce Amber Heard.

Lin Yuan smiled and continued, "My fellow knights of the apocalypse, steel roses, and survivors of the wilderness..."

He had barely uttered half a sentence when he was immediately interrupted by the enthusiastic cheers and banging of the guests.

This is all because Lin Yuan's opening remarks were simply too unconventional.

Normally, the host would politely say, "Welcome, distinguished guests. Tonight, we stand here together to offer our sincere blessings to the newlyweds."

But Lin Yuan did not. He started his speech with a role-playing scene that was full of immersion.

The guests in the audience naturally followed suit, perfectly embodying the style of the rioters.

Seeing the commotion below the stage, Lin Yuan calmly pulled out a firing gun from his back waist.

This is a magnesium powder firework launcher.

"Oh!"

With a loud bang, a giant "V8" totem exploded in the sky—in the movie, this is the symbol of faith for the followers of "Immortal Joe," but at this moment, it became the most absurd yet romantic wedding decoration.

The guests, who were fully immersed in the moment, immediately sat up straight.

According to the movie's setting, silence is required at this moment! Silence! Silence!
Lin Yuan smiled and continued, "Tonight, we stand on the ruins of civilization, witnessing two pairs of traitors—they betrayed loneliness, betrayed desolation, and even betrayed this insane movie script!"

Upon hearing this, the silence that had lasted only a few seconds was broken, and everyone burst into laughter.

"That damned traitor! He betrayed us and went to get married!"

"We promised to always be lonely followers, but it seems even the strongest brotherhood can't compare to a woman..."

"Shut up!"

"Hahaha……"

In a normal wedding, guests would never say such things.

However, Depp and Meng Tao believe that as long as the degree is right, such slightly "offensive" remarks can actually make people feel more friendly, while being too polite can make people feel distant.

Next, following the usual procedure, the officiant will say the classic wedding vows:

Whether in sickness or in health, whether in poverty or in wealth, or for any other reason, love him, care for him, respect him, accept him, and remain faithful to him until the end of your life.
But obviously, this activity won't be scheduled for tonight; it's too rigid and uninteresting.

Lin Yuan said with a smile, "You despicable traitors, I have sealed away your love."

After saying that, he took out two rusty iron boxes from behind him and tossed them to Depp and Meng Tao respectively.

"If you can't open it, you'll miss out on this damn love," Lin Yuan said, feigning malice.

The rusty iron box contained specially made wedding rings; the rings could not be exchanged without opening the box.

Faced with the metal box with his bare hands, Depp was at a loss for what to do: there wasn't even a keyhole, just a square metal box, how was he supposed to open it?
Depp looked at Lin Yuan with resentment, pleading with him to lower the difficulty level.

Meng Tao looked around the stage, then immediately walked to a prop box at the edge and pulled out a welding torch.

When the blue arc of electricity flashed, Depp was stunned: "You can do that? You can do that too?"

Meng Tao nodded: "I just learned it not long ago, and just in case there is a next time, I will be the one to do the welding outside the cabin."

"Zizzy!"

The welding torch melted through the rusted iron box, revealing a specially made wedding ring hidden inside.

It's not one of those tacky diamond rings, but a ring with a wasteland style, looking rugged yet possessing a unique kind of beauty:

Scarlett Johansson and Meng Tao wore diamond-encrusted black meteorites, while Johnny Depp and Amber Heard wore amber-encrusted lightning-struck wood.

"You can exchange rings now! Traitor!"

As Lin Yuan spoke, white columns of air shot up from around the altar, gathered and condensed in mid-air, and were then dyed into a rainbow-colored dome by the colorful lights on the ground.

In this beautiful atmosphere, Depp and Meng Tao each exchanged rings with their brides.

“Now is the time for us to be jealous! Traitor!” Lin Yuan continued.

The two couples on stage immediately embraced and kissed.

This was followed by thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.

"Aren't you all furious seeing these two pairs of traitors showing off their love?" Lin Yuan asked with a smile.

"Yes!"

"Of course!"

"I want to be a traitor too!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Now, let's move on to the special dinner party. Vent your anger on the delicious food!" Lin Yuan raised his hand and shouted to start the meal.

The wedding banquet has officially begun. Tonight's banquet has truly taken a lot of brainpower from the culinary team.

It's neither standard Western cuisine nor traditional Chinese food, but rather a specially designed post-apocalyptic punk style.

The dining table was pieced together from crooked metal scraps, with a "blood cocktail" placed in the center—actually a mixture of pomegranate juice and liquid nitrogen smoke effects.

The kitchen knife was a specially made "bone saw dagger" by the props team, and even the chopsticks were modified into bone chopsticks.

When the food was served, everyone was even more astonished:

The appetizer was “Radiated Scorpion Sashimi,” which was actually molecular gastronomy lobster served with a glowing sauce.

But if you didn't know, you'd really feel like you were eating radiation-contaminated scorpion meat in the apocalypse.

The main course is the "Tomahawk Steak," which is a bone-in steak grilled on a real piston connecting rod, giving it an extremely wild and primal flavor.

This was inspired by the food served during filming in Xiala Village, giving Meng Tao a feeling of being back in Congo.

The dessert after the meal was equally creative: a "sandstorm lava cake" that bursts with "oil"-like chocolate filling when cut open.

Meng Tao and Depp's eyes involuntarily reddened as they ate the delicious food in front of them.

They all knew how much effort it would take to put together such a thoughtful dinner in a place where there were no people for hundreds of kilometers around.

No wonder another convoy was arranged to replenish supplies yesterday.

That night, the weather was fine, there was no strong wind, and the Milky Way shone brightly in the night sky.

Everyone drank and sang, expressing their contempt for the two pairs of "traitors," and stayed up very late.

But Lin Yuan knew that all good things are fleeting.

A new round of challenges is about to begin.

Perhaps this is his fourth S-level action scene? (End of Chapter)
