I'm drawing an action-packed anime within a depressing one!

That's amazing...

Even if I drain myself dry, I probably still can't summon it.

...

He Zhou hesitated for a moment, then fixed his gaze on the Calabash Brothers.

Should I draw a big baby first to test the waters?

Abilities that don't align with one's worldview will be modified to some extent, but since the eldest child is incredibly strong, there shouldn't be any problem.

However, my energy won't last long either.

"Not enough energy!"

Thinking about next week, He Zhou felt a sudden sense of urgency and began to think about how to get Tian Xiaoxi to obediently draw the character card.

It seems like this time we really have to work with her.

Let's try collaborating first.

If it doesn't work out, I can still try to draw it myself.

However, drawing it yourself takes a lot of energy.

It would be best if Tian Xiaoxi could paint it.

in reality.

After Tian Xiaoxi finished drawing the Golden Cudgel, she stretched and took a moment to check if anyone had criticized her.

Several days have passed.

She even compensated them with the weapon diagram of the Golden Cudgel; she drew that diagram for He Zhou for free.

Surprisingly…

While everyone below was cursing, they were also curious about the origin of this golden cudgel.

Why is this golden cudgel being taken so seriously? It even has a separate weapon card? This doesn't seem like something Tian Xiaoxi would do; Lao He must have made her do it.

[Look at the description on the bag; it's obviously written by Lao He.]

However, some observant people discovered the blind spot by looking at the words "East Sea Dragon Palace".

[The Dragon Palace of the East Sea! Wasn't it the Dragon Palace of the East Sea that the Red Lotus Demon Child wreaked havoc on? So there is indeed a connection between these two comics, and they probably share the same universe.]

...

Everyone's talking about the plot.

That's fine.

Just as Tian Xiaoxi was about to breathe a sigh of relief and posted a couple of messages in the group chat, she saw comments below where someone was cursing her.

Have you finished drawing all the famous scenes from "Ne Zha"? If not, hurry up and draw them!

[Exactly! And don't corrupt Lao He!]

"..."

Is this still her fan group?

Tian Xiaoxi was filled with grief and indignation.

She has a feeling that there's something wrong with the composition of the people here!

Just as I was feeling down, I saw the new message that He Zhou had sent me.

He Zhou: The tool cards are quite good. Draw some character cards too. First, draw the eldest brother of the Calabash Brothers. The eldest brother is also known as the Red Brother. He is wearing red clothes and pants, and has a magenta gourd ornament on his head.

Wearing a green leaf necklace and a green leaf skirt, barefoot, she is brave but reckless.

Below that was a long list of requirements: [Only the old art factory style is allowed, no other styles; the older child must be holding a stone to represent his immense strength; also, the skin shouldn't be too pale, a wheatish color is preferred, and it should be evenly painted!]

One line was even circled: "【Whatever you do, don't go for that Thunder Calabash Brothers style again.】"

...

"My Calabash Brothers style Thunder?"

Tian Xiaoxi laughed in anger when she saw these words.

How did it become Thunder!

It was clearly her meticulously planned design!

She grew angrier the more she thought about it, and couldn't help but call Song Yaoyao to vent her frustration: "How could he go so far as to do that to my artistic face-to-face contact!"

"That's outrageous! He even wants the old-fashioned art factory style! Does he think I'm some kind of wishing well turtle?"

"He actually wanted me to paint in such a retro style! Doesn't he know how to respect my art style?!"

"Calm down."

Upon hearing that it was about He Zhou, Song Yaoyao immediately started thinking.

"Old He's aesthetic sense is still on point, so I think you can listen to his suggestions and see if you can make some changes."

"But...he mocked my art! I can't eat on my knees! I'll paint for him a work that doesn't belong to the Tian family!!"

least…

At the very least, we must acknowledge that her art has value!

Otherwise, I absolutely won't do it!

...

As soon as Tian Xiaoxi finished speaking, she looked down and froze when she saw the last sentence He Zhou had written.

I can consider giving you an extra layer of royalties, in addition to the main storyline portion of the comic book revenue.

"..."

and many more.

Let's offer an extra layer of royalties!

Tian Xiaoxi's breathing quickened instantly.

This is royalties!

He Bapi gave away a layer of royalties!

Wouldn't that mean we'd be able to eat our fill?

Song Yaoyao wanted to say a few more words of advice to her.

"Xiao west, this isn't just his..."

Do you know what the style of the old art factory is?

Tian Xiaoxi's tone on the other end of the phone was light and cheerful, filled with anticipation and a great sense of satisfaction.

"I really must draw it well!"

"???"

"Okay, that's enough! I'm going to get back to studying!"

Song Yaoyao listened to the dial tone, her face full of confusion.

That damn Tian Xiaoxi changed her tune again and didn't include me?

Didn't you say you wouldn't believe Tian if you painted it for He Zhou?

...

In the comics.

He Zhou studied it for a long time and finally made a decision.

If every character in a comic book is portrayed with sincerity and all their details are expressed, and combined with the comic itself, the character should be successfully captured in a high probability.

And each character is not just something that can be copied.

It is highly likely that records of Sun Wukong at different stages will appear, such as "Bima Wen" (弼马温), "Qitian Dasheng" (齐天大圣), and "Shihou" (石猴).

The utensils should be separate.

When tools and characters are brought together, the effect will be better and stronger.

This seems like a perfect move to use as a powerful attack.

He Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems so.

My safety should be guaranteed.

...

After figuring out everything, it was already evening.

This time, the popularity points gained from the main storyline have finally exceeded 100.

This is in conjunction with the previously added plot points.

The improvement came naturally.

[Popularity points, plot points, and highlight moments have met the requirements.]

[Congratulations on upgrading from a background character to a special background character!]

[Next level: Side mission cannon fodder]

[Popularity score reached 180 points, story points 10 points, highlight points 5 points]

Depend on!

Finally, I'm not just a passerby in the next level!

Although cannon fodder isn't much better than passersby!

But that's a difference in screen time!

...

After upgrading my identity.

The blocked energy in the body surged almost frantically from the meridians into the dantian.

At this moment, He Zhou finally felt the barrier of awakening.

It's like a reservoir, and it's already filled with half of its energy.

Compared to before, when all my energy was used to draw comics, I could only draw for four or five hours. If I used half of my energy to eat and improve my physical fitness, I could only draw for one or two hours.

But now that my energy has increased, I use half of it to eat and improve my physical fitness, so there isn't enough energy left for painting.

[After being promoted to a special passerby, a new setting has been added! View?]

"Check."

...

soon.

The next setting appeared before him.

【Setting 5: You suddenly remember that your hometown doesn't seem to be here. It seems that you moved to Dongwai Island with your parents when you were a child.

However, you have a very good relationship with Zhang Huai, the son of Aunt Zhang who lives downstairs.

A very short line.

He Zhou glanced at it but didn't pay much attention to it.

What hometown or not?

No matter how you set it up.

My hometown is only the People's Republic of China.
