I made science magic

"Video Stone?! What is this thing?" Seediq couldn't help but frowned, and was very wary of the new creations made by the wizards.

"It seems to be similar to an opera, and it will be shown in the town tonight." The young nobleman said hesitantly.

Hearing that it was similar to an opera, a look of contempt suddenly appeared on Seediq's face.

Of course he knew about opera, which originated from the stories sung by bards, such as warriors slaying dragons, and down-and-out nobles gaining the appreciation of big men and reaching the peak of their lives.

Some poor people, merchants and small nobles were very enthusiastic about this, but in the eyes of Seediq, it was just a script compiled by bards to satisfy the imagination of the lower classes and it was not worthy of being shown on the stage at all!

However, considering that the wizards were making such a big fuss, Seediq looked at everyone and told them that if they were free tonight, they could go and find out what the parliament was doing.

……

In the evening, the old nobles who had finished their meeting left one by one through various secret passages in the farm. If such a large gathering of people was discovered, it would easily arouse suspicion.

You must know that the Parliament offered a very high reward in order to capture these remnants of the Empire and the Church.

Many untouchables who had completely abandoned their faith in God were extremely keen on reporting suspicious persons to local officials. Therefore, even though the farm with an area of ​​dozens of miles around was contracted, they had to act cautiously and separately.

Tiral was one of the last few to walk out of the manor. He was still reluctant to leave the moment he stepped out of the door, because here he was the great earl of the empire and the future king of Hadratha. But once he walked out of this door, he turned back into an ordinary worker.

Tiral only hopes that the great Moon God can awaken soon and restore the glory of the empire.

After secretly returning to the town, the vigilant Tiral immediately noticed something different. A huge poster was posted at the gate of the town, which instantly attracted his attention.

On the poster, a priest in a white robe with a ferocious face is holding a scepter high, facing a wizard named Yaoyao who is surrounded by flames, storms and ice. Behind him, under the protection of a shield made of elements, two poor men and women with ragged clothes but determined expressions can be vaguely seen.

Tiral could tell at a glance that this was a life-and-death duel between the church bishop and a wizard...and it seemed to be related to those low-class untouchables, which made people think a lot.

The poster is also very detailed, whether it is the powerful divine arts, the gorgeous magic, or even the wrinkles and expressions on the faces of several people, they are all clearly visible, as if the duel is happening right in front of you.

Tiral knew that this was the magic that wizards called optical photography, which could record what was happening.

The cover of Magic Daily used the same magic, and some ignorant civilians even thought that wizards had frozen time and put it into the photo.

Of course, Tiral would not believe such outrageous remarks. Moreover, all major cities sell an alchemical device called a camera, which can take a lifelike photo by simply pressing a switch.

Just buying a camera requires 50 gold coins, which is not affordable for ordinary civilians!

This poster was like a super-enlarged photo. Even Tiral, who had not been very interested in movies before, couldn't help but feel a little curious at this moment. After hesitating for a moment, he walked in the direction indicated by the poster.

The movie was screened in the widest and most conspicuous square, and the ticket price was not expensive, only one silver coin was needed, which was equivalent to a few days' salary for the kingdom's citizens. It was not a problem to bring the whole family to watch the movie, which also meant that the number of moviegoers was beyond imagination.

Almost all the residents of the town had arrived, and tens of thousands of people gathered in the small square. The five thousand chairs prepared in advance were not enough, and there was not enough space to put the chairs, so the rest of the people could only stand and watch the movie.

The residents who were on the periphery and whose vision was blocked were trying their best to squeeze in, but some smart ones brought their own mats and stood higher than the other. Hundreds of children even climbed onto the eaves above their heads. This was the best viewing position!

Relying on his excellent physical fitness, Tiral squeezed to the front row amidst the insults. Although he had no seat, he could clearly see the scene ahead.

In the center of the square was a large area that was deliberately left empty. There were no opera singers or even a stage. The only thing that could be seen were nine projection stones suspended in the air.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Sean, who was in charge of the screening, asked people to stop selling tickets. Then he cleared his throat, cast a sound amplification spell, and shouted loudly.

"quiet!"

The sound, as loud as a bell, instantly drowned out the discussions of tens of thousands of people, and the noisy square slowly became quiet.

Although there is no strict class division in the kingdom now, it still exists in private, especially wizards who have great say.

After the square became silent, Sean announced the start of today's movie screening. With a flick of his finger, the nine projection stones suspended in the air immediately dispersed and flew to various corners of the square.

Then a blinding light burst out from it, covering the entire square. Tiral subconsciously squinted his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he couldn't help but show horror, and the civilians around him kept exclaiming.

In just such a short moment, they arrived at a piece of farmland from the bustling square, with green grass under their feet and a yellow-orange wheat field in front of them.

Tiral couldn't help but squat down and wanted to pull out a piece of grass to confirm its authenticity, but his hand passed through the grass leaves.

It is obvious that this is not a real thing, but a projection of magic and light, which together form a visual effect that is so real that it is hard to tell the difference between the real thing and the fake one!

Chapter 586: The Big Hits of Magic Movies and the Excited Citizens of the Kingdom

The magical 3D projection technology amazed the kingdom's citizens who came into contact with it for the first time. They felt as if they were in the story, watching everything happen in front of them with their own eyes. It was a complete sense of immersion!

The first movie in the history of this magical kingdom has a simple plot. It tells the story of the farmers at the bottom of the empire.

The hero Dave was born into an ordinary serf family in the imperial barony. The early stories are also related to the daily encounters of this family, such as heavy labor, a large amount of exorbitant taxes, exploitation by the lord's tax officials, and bullying by local bullies...

They had more or less personally experienced the various harsh treatments that Dave encountered in the movie, so they were naturally filled with indignation and kept clenching their fists.

Countless troubles followed one after another, which could only be described as harsh, but Dave overcame them one by one. What supported him to get through this endless suffering was his poor but warm family.

Although his mother died early, his father was Dave's strongest support. He seemed to have endless energy, and his wheat-growing skills were the best in the whole town!

In addition, Dave has a fiancée. She is not very pretty, but she is a bright spot in this small town.

Such a difficult yet peaceful life obviously did not last long. Under the anxious gaze of everyone, the life that was originally still possible soon took a turn.

First, his father, who was as strong as a mountain, fell down due to malaria. The bishop in the church, who preached God's love for the world all day long, chose to stand by and watch because he could not raise the fifteen silver coins for treatment. The helpless Dave could only watch his father fall ill in front of him.

Soon after, another piece of bad news came. The local lord's youngest son fell in love with Dave's fiancée while inspecting the territory. Under the instigation of several servants, he could not control himself and defiled her.

When the plot was suppressed to the extreme, it finally erupted. Dave, in a rage, took advantage of the night to sneak into the temporary residence of several people, wielded farm tools and killed the son of the baron who defiled his fiancée, and then fled Nordland with his fiancée overnight...

"Good killing! That's how it should be done, kill these damn nobles!" A strong worker shouted excitedly.

"And that bishop and the tax collector, we must not let them go!" Another rough-looking laborer also waved his fists and said angrily.

The rest of the people were equally excited, clamoring to make the nobles, priests and bullies who persecuted Dave pay with blood!

The scolding from tens of thousands of people made Tiral, who was in the middle of it, feel a little uneasy, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

A few years ago, no commoner would have dared to speak so openly about trying a noble or even a clergyman, but now the situation has obviously changed!

The kingdom is no longer ruled by the nobility and the church...

Dave's outburst in the movie made all the townspeople, who had been feeling frustrated for more than half an hour, let out a sigh of relief. But then they couldn't help but become worried, because for a civilian to kill a noble was a serious crime in the empire!

Just as everyone expected, the furious baron sent a large number of guards to search for the escaped Dave.

Although Dave managed to evade round after round of searches with his wit and determination, his raped fiancée was already exhausted and could not endure the days of hiding from place to place, even having to sleep with one eye half open.

In a heavy rain, the two people in love soon faced the separation of life and death.

Raindrops made up of magic and light and shadow fall from the sky. Although they will not soak your clothes like real rain, they set the atmosphere to the extreme.

The people watching the movie in the audience were completely immersed in Dave's tragic experience. Even a big man weighing over 200 pounds couldn't open his eyes because of crying.

Fortunately, in the second half of the movie, Dave's luck finally turned around. He was appreciated by a great wizard and became a wizard apprentice. He also joined an organization that resisted the brutal rule of the empire.

It was here that Dave realized the source of his past misery. It was not a test from the Lord as the church had preached, and there was no such thing as heaven in this world...

Dave, who broke free from the constraints of common sense, finally awakened and prepared to overthrow the rule of the empire and the church together with other wizards, and liberate the imperial subjects who were still suffering from the poisoning of the church and the oppression of the nobles.

After hard study and several experiences, Dave gradually grew from an apprentice to a formal wizard capable of standing on his own.

Perhaps it was fate that during an operation he led, Dave discovered a local noble's brutal act of oppressing the poor. It was almost a replica of what he had encountered that year, except that this time it did not lead to tragedy.

Dave stood up firmly, killed the noble, helped the two civilian men and women in love evacuate to a safe place, and had a desperate battle with a church bishop who arrived later!

The light of divine arts and magic continued to rise above the square, and the townspeople exclaimed in amazement and secretly worried for Dave. Several laborers who couldn't stand it picked up stones on the ground angrily and threw them at the bishop in an attempt to interfere with his spellcasting!

But this was obviously a futile effort, as the stone went straight through the bishop's body. As spectators, they were unable to interfere with the development of events!

Fortunately, after a hard fight, Dave defeated the enemy with difficulty.

Although he failed to protect his wife back then, after gaining power, he protected the happiness of others!

The movie came to an abrupt end here, lingering on Dave's slightly bleak back. The whole movie lasted more than three hours, which can only be described as long, but the townspeople watched it with gusto and even felt that there was no problem watching it for another two or three hours!

Although the ending of the movie is relatively happy, there are still many blank spaces in the content. For example, after becoming a formal wizard, will Dave return to his former barony to avenge the evil deeds of the local nobles and the church?

As the filmmaker and screener, Sean was of course aware of everyone's expectations, and soon announced that "The Legend of Dave 2: The Secret of the Moon Goddess!" would be officially broadcast in three months and screened in various cities throughout the Magic Kingdom.

The name of the movie alone is enough to trigger people's imagination. Some brave townspeople even started discussing what shameful things the Moon God had done in private.

Listening to the discussions of the untouchables, Tiral, who also watched the entire movie, felt a chill in his heart. He could naturally see that the wizards were trying to shake the faith in the Moon God from the foundation.

So much so that after watching the movie, I had the idea at the last moment that the death of the bishop and the nobles before was simply gratifying. But in fact, neither the baron's son who defiled Dave's fiancée nor the priest and bishop of the church did anything really out of line.

After all, all the serfs in the entire territory were the lord's property. Not to mention defiling them, even if they were killed directly, they would only have to pay a fine to the church.

In some wild areas in the northern border of the empire, there is even a tradition of the right of the first night, but many lords have no intention of fulfilling it at all, because the appearance of most peasant women is really not flattering.

Tiral thought angrily, but he didn't notice that their abnormal behavior had been recorded.

"No. 69, No. 137, No. 540, No. 7,031, and No. 9,520 showed abnormal behavior while watching the movie. Do they need to be arrested, Lord Sean?" A wizard asked in a low voice, glancing at the townspeople who were about to leave.

They played the film on a loop in every city within the empire. In addition to propaganda, it was also a means of identifying friends and foes.

Those who agree with the rule of parliament will feel their emotions fluctuate as the plot progresses when watching "The Story of Dave" and will feel sympathy for the protagonist's experience. However, according to their investigation, several townspeople who watched the movie just now had gloomy faces throughout the whole movie.

Sean naturally noticed the abnormality of these people, but he waved his hand to stop them from taking further action. "I already know their identities. They should all be members of Moon Watchers. Let's spare their lives for now! This is also an order from above..."

"As long as they don't do anything too radical, you don't have to pay attention to their actions."

At this point, Sean turned his head and looked at the secret guard who was covering his face. "Pim, you continue to keep an eye on them."

"Sir Sean, the matter about the revival of the Moon Goddess..." Pym asked hesitantly. This matter seemed extremely important to him, but the wizard from the royal capital in front of him hardly cared about it.

"I have already reported it. When I return to the capital in a few days, I will personally tell that gentleman about your discovery." Sean explained concisely.

In fact, he had received similar information more than once when the movie was shown on a loop in the kingdom, and the Moon Watchers were not the only remnant of the church in the entire continent.

He had a vague idea of ​​the reason why the Moon God had 'awoke'. Only a few high-ranking officials in the entire parliament knew that the god the church believed in had been captured by the magic star from a foreign land. Perhaps this was the reason why some clergymen had suddenly regained their ability to cast spells.

As for why they allowed the remnants of the church to act, Sean didn't understand, but the power of the Speaker was unfathomable and his wisdom was vast, which was beyond their ability to guess. Following orders was undoubtedly the most correct choice.

Seeing that Sean remained tight-lipped and was unwilling to reveal too much, Pym wisely did not ask any more questions. He couldn't help but guess in his heart that perhaps the Moon Watchers organization was just a fishing ground for the parliament. These nobles and church remnants who were not very smart could not make any waves, and the existence of this organization could instead lure out those ambitious people hiding in the dark and opposing the parliament's rule.

"Okay, it's time for us to pack up and go to the next place!" After tens of thousands of townspeople who came to watch the movie dispersed in an orderly manner, Sean took back the nine projection stones and cast his own cleaning magic.

An inexplicable magical wind blew past, gently lifting up the tables and chairs that were toppling over on the ground.

The second gust of magic wind was aimed at the fruit peels scattered on the ground... and was responsible for dust removal and cleanup.

In just half a minute, the originally messy town square became tidy and clean.

Sean nodded with great satisfaction. It seemed that his self-created cleaning magic was already very perfect and it only needed a name.

Unlike most wizards who focus on studying how to make their spells more powerful, Sean is not very interested in fighting. He prefers to study magic that can make life more convenient.

Although the parliament is still facing some crises, the development of combat magic is still the top priority, but there should be enough people responsible for researching similar spells, and someone has to be responsible for making life more convenient, right?
