I am a director in Ark. If I am not banned, I will be considered successful.

"This one……"

"Now!"

However, at Black Key's command again, the two nobles, who had been somewhat aroused by Black Key's overly realistic performance and fearfully expressed their willingness to take him to see the "headquarters" of the Witch King's remnants in this mobile city.

Of course, they didn't agree simply because they were afraid of the Witch King. After all, they were not sure that this person was the Witch King. He was probably just an imitator. The headquarters was full of talented people. If Black Key was a spy and was caught deep inside the hinterland, they could kill him immediately.

If Black Key is really the Witch King... then there is no need to think about it. Who in today's Leithania can be the opponent of the real Witch King? If they run into the real Witch King, there is no need to resist. Just surrender.

Black Key and White Chalk, led by the two nobles, also left the scene. It was unknown how long they had been gone before Vina and Eureka appeared at the door of the TV station. Vina, who witnessed all this, immediately contacted Chen Qi.

"Teacher, what should we do here?"

"Don't worry, let them go. I have asked Maenna to catch up in time. I believe the spies of the 'Voice of the Queen' will also be there soon. White Chalk and Black Key both know what to do."

Chen Qi's words also came slowly. Now, the progress of the movie "The Return of the Witch King" is faster than he thought. According to this progress, I am afraid that within half a month, the movie can be released in Leithania.

As for the end, after the Gemini Queens have eliminated most of the remnants of the Witch King, whether they can understand the meaning of this movie and prevent the emergence of more remnants of the Witch King, Chen Qi doesn't know.

……

On the other side, Black Key and White Chalk followed the two nobles to the headquarters of the remnants of the Witch King. It was called a headquarters, but it was actually just an old attic. They didn't even dare to put their base in the open, but set it up in the basement.

Black Key and White Chalk rushed in aggressively, not considering themselves as outsiders at all. White Chalk even had a camera in his hand, which he always carried with him. After all, in the movie, he was still the protagonist played by White Chalk, and he came to film the Witch King.

Now that Vina and Eureka were gone, he was the only one left to film. Their intrusion confused the remaining followers of the Witch King in the basement.

Over the years, they have been operating here in secret, and there have been spies and desperate journalists who have come here, but without exception, they have been dealt with. But even if it is the "Voice of the Queen", it is not so open to barge in with a camera? Do you think this is a film set?

However, the witch king played by Black Key, his overly strong aura and intimidating attire still made them waver for a moment. After a long while, one of them asked cautiously:

“…Are you allowed to film?”

"A racial movement organization is hiding here?" However, the Witch King played by Black Key did not answer this question. He knew that this was the best opportunity to confront the remnants of the Witch King and put all of this into Chen Qi's movie. He was already prepared for this and said:

“Where is your leader?”

"...Are you new members?"

"We are here for Leitania!"

Black Key lived up to his image of the Witch King and sat down in full view of everyone, while White Cretaceous smiled at everyone and pointed the camera around as if nothing had happened.

Under such a situation, facing Black Key's costume as the Witch King, there were at least twenty remnants of the Witch King in such a large scene, but no one made a move. They didn't even have the courage to pick up the staff and could only surround him.

After a while, the two saw a nobleman who was dressed very luxuriously, but upon closer inspection, his clothes were a little old. When he saw the black keys and chalk, he was dazed for a moment, then his ecstasy was immediately evident. He walked forward and said:

"Great, you're here - I am"

"Sit down. I need to talk to you." Black Key ignored the noble's words and immediately said to him in an imperative tone:

"I want to make good use of my time, but what did you do in the meantime?"

However, facing Black Key's move of turning the tables, the leader of the Witch King's remnants was at a loss for words. After a long while, he managed to utter, "My colleagues and I..."

"—We share trenches with our colleagues? No one here cares about you except me."

It can be said that Black Key has now completely taken on the role of the Witch King, or rather, the Witch King's afterimage is using his blood and the "Voice of the World" to subtly express his thoughts through Black Key's body.

The leader was a little embarrassed and replied: "I and the people of our country..."

"National people? What do you mean? Now there are the emperor and the two queens?!" However, when he said this, Hei Jian was furious. There was a voice in his mind that kept coming out, making one of Hei Jian's eyes emit a blood-red luster. He shouted angrily:

"You need an idea and a political party with a name! Instead of sitting here like a bunch of bums! Idiots! Have you read my book?!"

"—your book is hard to find."

"Do you regret having read the book?" Hei Jian continued to angrily scold him with a hateful attitude: "Or you haven't read it? Or you don't understand it?"

However, Black Key's words made the remaining members around him look at him with distrust. The leader was embarrassed and said to Bai Ke's camera with extreme embarrassment: "Can you turn off the camera?"

"No! You've wasted enough time." Black Key looked at the leader in front of him. Seeing that he had already shocked everyone in the audience, he understood the meaning of stopping at a certain point. He immediately stood up and said in an extremely cold tone:

"You are undermining decades of progress with every word you say."

Afterwards, he did not forget to look at the remaining followers around him and said with a sneering tone: "Is this the best person among you?"

Seeing that the remaining members did not answer, Hei Jian's expression of mockery became more pronounced, but he also felt helpless and disheartened. After a long while, he replied politely:

"…Have a nice evening."

Black Key and White Crescent strode away from the scene. However, all the remnants of the Witch King were intimidated by Black Key's aura, and no one dared to stop him from leaving. White Crescent even had a camera in his hand and could report the situation here to the Gemini Queens at any time.

“… prepare to move our position. If we are not wiped out here in three days, take this man with you to meet all our supporters.”

However, after a while, the worthless leader who was criticized by Black Key stood up slowly with a smile on his face. Facing the remaining followers around him, a satisfied, happy, and even somewhat fanatical smile appeared on his face, and he murmured:

"I feel that His Majesty the Witch King is returning... The representative of his will has appeared. He will return soon and rule Leithania again!"

"Then, we will be able to return to the pinnacle of power in Leitania! He will lead us, Leitania, back to that heyday!"

Chapter 256: Xi's emotional judgment on Chen Qi? Da Yanlai's filming permission

Half a month passed quietly, and during this time, Black Key's "reputation" in Leitania began to expand. Now, almost everyone in Leitania knew about this man who played the role of the Witch King, constantly shuttling between various mobile cities, constantly interviewing the people, even officials, party leaders, and even nobles. There were people who had been interviewed by him.

In the eyes of outsiders, this "Witch King" is now regarded as a representative of "it's a miracle that he can still live to this day". The situation in Leithania is getting more and more chaotic day by day. It is a miracle that someone who blatantly plays the role of the Witch King and constantly visits sensitive topics in Leithania has not been caught by the city defense forces.

As for the remnants of the Witch King, Black Key could be said to have passed all their "tests". They arranged many internal people and nobles who secretly supported them to communicate with Black Key. Black Key passed each test and proved that his "restoration of the Witch King's rule" was not just a show of force, but he had more determination and expectation than anyone else present.

Among them, there is a conversation that can be called absolutely thrilling, in which Black Key is talking to a nobleman who used to be a supporter of the Witch King, but now under the rule of the Gemini Queens, his power is not as great as before. The Witch King played by Black Key was trying to invite him to join the war of "seizing power".

"I need you to fight in the next war, at the front."

In the subsequent conversation, Black Key and White Chalk moved to a quiet place to wait for his answer. Black Key immediately asked: "Will you obey all my orders?"

"... Stop filming." The nobleman also answered this way to Bai Ke's camera. It was not until Bai Ke silently moved the camera down that the nobleman said to Hei Jian sincerely:

"—if you were him, I would."

"call……"

Now, in Chen Qi's ship, Chen Qi looked at this scene that was the finishing touch, and finally appeared in front of him, and he breathed a sigh of relief. And beside Chen Qi, Kal'tsit, who came to visit every day, also said with emotion after seeing such a scene:

"The anger hidden in the hearts of the Leitanians... is now devouring the country bit by bit. Director Chen Qi, are you sure this movie can really stop this?"

"That depends on whether the Twin Queens can understand the deep meaning of it." Chen Qi also transmitted this clip to Nian, asking her to supervise the editing, while answering Kal'tsit's words:

"I put all my thoughts about this movie at the end. Dr. Kal'tsit, when the movie is released, you will understand why I chose the Witch King as the protagonist of this movie."

"For me, killing a wizard king, covering up everything about him with political correctness, and destroying everything about him cannot stop people from still remembering him. He has long since become a ghost, deeply imprinted in everyone's heart."

"I understand what you mean. The next Witch King will definitely appear. If Letania doesn't make changes, there will still be a more extreme existence who will overthrow the rule of the Gemini Queens." Kal'tsit also nodded. But although she understood this truth, she was troubled about how to express it - she had some "obstacles" in this regard, and even if she didn't, she couldn't think of how to make the Gemini Queens understand this truth through the movie.

But she believed that Chen Qi must have a way. Kal'tsit was even impatient to see the ending of the movie. How to convey this point?

And at this moment, because all the filming during this period was given to Eureka and Vina, and recently only Bai Ke was filming next to Hei Jian, Talulah, who had nothing to do, suddenly sent a message to Chen Qi.

Before Chen Qi could ask what was going on, he heard Tallulah say with some excitement:

"Chen Qi, quickly clean up the ship's reception room! Xiao Chen is here!"

"What? Huijie?" Chen Qi was also a little surprised. How could Chen Huijie, who was far away in Longmen, suddenly have the idea to come to them? Before he could ask, Tallulah said:

"Not only Xiao Chen, but also Lin Qingyan, the messenger from before, is here too! I guess she's here to tell us that the emperor has agreed to your plan to film in Dayan!"

Tallulah could hardly conceal her joy, and after a brief pause, Chen Qi immediately hung up the phone and asked Saria to operate the ship so that Chen Huijie and her land ship could enter smoothly.

In addition, he immediately went to the painting to find the two sisters, Nian and Xi, who had been doing nothing recently. Since they knew that Chen Qi was their "brother", their attitude towards Chen Qi had changed subtly.

Nian was still okay. She didn't care much and called Chen Qi "Thirteenth Brother" in a particularly affectionate manner.

What worries Chen Qi is Xi's current state. Since she knew that Chen Qi was her brother, Xi has been in the painting for a long time. According to Nian, Xi does nothing in the painting except staring at the landscape she painted, as if she is thinking about something.

Nian and Chen Qi had gone to the scroll to ask Xi several times, but Nian was kicked out. When faced with Chen Qi's question, Xi was silent for a while and replied:

"…You don't need me for now, and I don't need you to bother me for now. Don't disturb my peace. I'm going through a bottleneck for me."

"If I can get through this, my painting skills may be able to reach a higher level... So please don't bother me, okay? Thirteenth brother."

Just like that, ever since Xi sent him away that day, Chen Qi had not bothered Xi for a long time, and Xi had never come out of the painting. To this, Sister Nian was particularly open-minded, patted Chen Qi on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, your eleventh sister is just starting to act 'pure' again. Every time she encounters something that bothers her, she will pretend to be noble. After a while, she can't stand the loneliness anymore and comes out on her own."

"Don't worry, your ninth sister is here. I'll persuade your eleventh sister. She will definitely come out within a few months!"

Just like that, Nian entered the scroll again a month ago. This time he was not driven out, but Nian had never come out of the scroll again, which made Chen Qi quite worried.

But now, Chen Qi still entered the scroll world and planned to tell Nian and Xi the news - after all, if he went to the Dayan Palace to film, he still had to consult the ideas of these two "years".

As soon as he arrived at the painting, Chen Qi quickly found the sisters. When Xi and Nian saw Chen Qi, Nian's expression was a little awkward, and Xi's eyes were a little evasive. After a long time, Xi finally spoke:

"…Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you not to disturb my peace?"

"I really don't want to bother you, but there is something I must say now, otherwise you will blame me."

Facing Xi, who seemed to have returned to the cold and aloof state she had when they first met, and Nian, who rarely tried to smooth things over, Chen Qi felt strange in his heart, but he still spoke as cordially as before:

"Xi, we may have to fulfill our previous promise."

"...promise?" Xi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he had obviously forgotten what happened at the beginning. Seeing this, Chen Qi smiled and reminded him:

"When I asked you to join our crew, I promised you something - if I could say a few sarcastic words of Yan Country on your behalf, you would stay in the crew."

"If nothing unexpected happens, this opportunity has come now. Will you come with me to witness this scene?"

"——What? You really dare to be so sarcastic to Da Yan?! Are you going to die?"

However, after Chen Qi said this, the first person to react was the horrified Nian. If it was in the past, Nian would definitely not have such a big reaction, but since he knew that Chen Qi was a member of their "Sui" family, Chen Qi's next action was completely different for him.

In Nian's eyes, Chen Qi was risking his life, taking advantage of the fact that no one in Dayan knew his true identity yet, to stand up for his brothers and sisters and to be sarcastic to the Dayan Empire!

With the notoriously petty temper of the Great Yan Emperor, he could have killed Chen Qi by accident! Humans are really the most dishonest, and they often go back on their promises. How come his thirteenth brother, who has been in the human world for so long, still doesn't know this?

However, compared to Nian's nervousness, Xi was stunned for a moment, and a strong storm emerged in her mind... To be honest, she herself had forgotten this promise, because when she said this, she just wanted to make it seem that she would not be so embarrassing to join the crew, and she just said it to support the occasion.

She never expected Chen Qi to really be sarcastic to Dayan. Even she... no, not even her eldest brother would dare to do such a thing. How could she expect a mortal to risk such a great disrespect and stand up for a giant beast like her?

But now, Chen Qi's identity has been revealed. He is their long-lost "Thirteenth Brother". But even so... he still remembers this promise. Even though he knows his identity, he is still willing to stand up for his sister...

At that moment, a few months passed in the outside world, but several years seemed to have passed in the painting. Xi was just looking for the answer to a question, but she had never figured it out. When she saw that Chen Qi still remembered the promise he made to her, her heart, which had finally calmed down, was once again uncontrollably rippled...

At that moment, the question that Xi had been thinking about for so long without an answer seemed to be resolved quietly. In her mind, the short but memorable time along the way slowly echoed, and she couldn't help but smile.

She watched this man slowly gain popularity, from being respected to being admired by everyone. Even those arrogant kings and dukes had to bow down before him. Even the Emperor of Dayan had to grant him a title of nobility because of his talent.

Even when she was afraid and uneasy, it was this man who he regarded as a mortal at the time who escaped danger time and time again and displayed his strength time and time again...to protect her and everyone he cared about.

Such a man...left an indelible mark in her heart. Faced with such ripples in her heart, Xi had to admit...her heart was in turmoil.

By the time she knew he was her brother, it was too late... She had always looked at him in a different light. She had never considered him a "brother" before. The future would probably be difficult.

Chapter 257: tyrant emperor and treacherous ministers? Don’t splash me with blood when you’re filming!

"It's been a long time since we last met, Marquis Liewen. I have come here on His Majesty's orders to deliver your instructions."

After Chen Huijie and Lin Qingyan arrived at the ship, Chen Qi successfully led Nian and Xi out of the scroll world. However, what Chen Qi found strange was that Nian and Xi's expressions seemed to have been swapped after they came out.

Xi, who originally had a cold and a little sad face, seemed like a different person. A faint smile appeared on her face, as if all her worries had been swept away, and she regained her familiar gentleness like spring water.

However, on the contrary, Nian had been talking to his sister about her worries for almost a month in the scroll world. Although Xi never said it explicitly, Nian had roughly understood the meaning behind her words. His sister was in a kind of trouble that was very complicated but solemn for a giant beast.

If it were in the past, Nian might have gone against his usual practice and discussed the matter seriously with his sister, but now when Nian found out who was causing Xi troubles, his first reaction was to oppose it desperately!

During this period, Nian had finally managed to persuade his sister to give up the idea as soon as possible. However, he never expected that after meeting Chen Qi, all his efforts of the previous month were wasted... One can imagine how fucked up Nian was.

But now, Nian has no time to care about her own mood. She only wants to do one thing now, which is to stop her sister from having such an idea, which is extremely explosive in the giant beast circle.

Facing Nian's uncertain expression, Lin Qingyan also looked at him for a while, and finally pretended not to see it and said to Chen Qi: "The emperor has ordered that Marquis Liewen does not need to perform the ceremony."

Afterwards, Lin Qingyan began to imitate the tone of the Great Yan Emperor very responsibly, and said to Chen Qi and his party: "My Lord, I have received the gift from Marquis Liewen. I admire Marquis Liewen's broad mind, and it also astonishes all the officials. I actually had an idea for Marquis Liewen's request a long time ago, but the officials opposed it, so I had no way to start."

"All officials think that Marquis Liewen is too arrogant and undisciplined. However, I have found this point about Marquis Liewen. I am fearless and can speak the truth and say things that others dare not say."

"Although there are officials who die for their advice every year, how many of them are just seeking fame and reputation? Or are they forced to do so? They are trying to interfere with the imperial power in this way, but they are full of the smell of money and only care about their own interests and the interests of the people behind them?"

"For this reason, I accepted the gift and agreed to Marquis Liewen's wish - but I also need words to convince the officials."

"I know that Lord Leven is already in Leitania. Now, in order to relieve the worries of the twin queens of Leitania, I am shooting a movie about the Witch King. I hope Lord Leven can use this as an argument. If this movie can really bring Leitania back to life, then I will have an argument to debate with all the officials."

"At that time, I can invite Marquis Liewen to the Imperial City for a chat. Whether Marquis Liewen wants to write about the evils of Great Yan or the dangers of Great Yan, I will agree."

Lin Qingyan relayed all of the Great Yan Emperor's instructions to Chen Qi, and all the words could be summed up in one sentence: Chen Qi, shoot "The Witch King is Back" well, preferably with depth and a greater impact, so that I can convince all the officials to let you come to the imperial city to shoot that "shocking" drama.

"Honestly, even a guy as brave as you said that your next work will be shocking... I'm worried that you might be planning to film some secret stories about the imperial palace, right?"
