Chapter 773: Chapter 552: The Prophecy of the Undead Who Will Save the World Has Arrived, Rejoice
"Outdoor screening?"
"Feature film?"
"We two took the express train all the way from Shilu Continent to Enstad Continent, hoping it’s worth it."
Still stubborn and full of questions, My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys answered them one by one.
She’s the kind who never lets a conversation drop to the ground, the chatty angel.
"Of course, it’s worth it, and we’re going for the racing game later! I’ve always wanted to try it."
"That lot are nasty; they turn it into an item race, illegal teaming up and all, and the Swift War Chariots just cheer them on, seeing no issue with that kind of play."
"But you’re here, oh great one, you must be super strong!"
The corner of Still Stubborn’s mouth softened slightly, and it took quite a few efforts to barely keep it from curling up.
"They’re just average, I’ll take you, and we’ll win for sure."
Holding the ticket stubs, the two entered the cinema, though Still Stubborn thought the thing utterly pointless.
If someone wanted to sneak in, they could fly in from the sky, use Stealth Skills, invisibility items and so on, or even stand on the rooftop watching with binoculars.
No Undead would actually choose to do so; the ticket prices weren’t expensive, and the few Undead who were actually willing to take time out to see what they could access anytime online.
"Looks like it’s all couples who came." My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys turned her head and suddenly commented after scanning around.
Then she paused, falling into a rare silence.
Still Stubborn did the same, subconsciously scratching his cheek, and upon realizing this, suddenly felt like they were here for a romantic movie date.
Before he could say anything, a strong gaze swept over them.
This was a pretty girl, with white hair and long eyelashes, not very tall, and an indifferent expression.
It seemed like the intense gaze wasn’t coming from her.
My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys subconsciously stepped aside: "Sorry, blocking the way here, please go ahead."
Beep beep, a private message.
"What’s up?" She turned her head and blinked at Still Stubborn.
"That’s the [Witch]!"
"Who?"
"[Witch] Hila, one of the twelve deities of the Alliance, I can’t believe she’s here to watch a film."
Watching a movie with a boss-level powerful NPC, is this a mini update in the game? Randomly encountering NPCs at the movies, indeed very interesting.
Still Stubborn, who had never been interested in movies, was thinking about another chance encounter.
Their seats were next to Hila, and as the big screen started playing, "Evil Noble Lady and Gentle Demon King" began.
The wide appeal of such a cheesy sweet drama lies in its adoption of the formula from early web literature, simple and crude, creating moments of thrill.
Then came the ambiguous music, eye-to-eye moments, heartbeats, blushing.
Without going into details, when Still Stubborn first started watching, he felt his brain was being fed crap, but after watching for a while, his brain and eyes disagreed.
His eyes loved watching and were jubilant.
Still Stubborn stealthily glanced at [Witch] Hila sitting next to him, who was slowly clenching her fists with eyes wide, not wanting to miss a single shot.
Oh no, this boss likes cheesy dramas.
There goes my street cred.
"Ah!" My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys beside him screamed, the awkwardness giving her goosebumps, yet she couldn’t take her eyes off addictively.
The story was at a ball.
The Gentle Demon King was pursued by an obsessed female demon who had a crush on him, then the Evil Noble Lady passed by, was grabbed by the wrist and pulled into the Demon King’s arms; he bent down and kissed her deeply.
The female demon ground her teeth in anger.
The other guests at the ball covered their mouths in shock.
The audience picked at their feet, thinking it to be both tacky and romantic.
Still Stubborn sneaked a glance at [Witch] Hila, who also did the same, and even her cheeks were slightly flushed as she gently stroked her legs beneath her skirt.
"That’s over the top," Still Stubborn murmured to himself, "This time I really think it’s just mediocre, for real this time!"
The movie, or cheesy short drama, ended, and the crowd dispersed.
When they were leaving, they saw [Witch] Hila hadn’t left but was standing in front of the cinema, pondering over the list of films on display.
Still Stubborn leaned over to take a look.
"Holy crap, so many?"
Before, there were only a few films, how did so many – hundreds of thousands – suddenly appear?
"Totally normal," My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys felt it was to be expected, "Think about it, millions of Undead, these people all use computers to game, they’re the main internet users, isn’t it easy to make something?"
"The cinema’s basically become a short video platform?" Still Stubborn got it.
In the early days of the cinema, due to incomplete review systems and lack of films, restrictions were loosened, piquing some people’s interest.
"Should we upload our battle highlights?" My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys suggested.
"Sure."
Still Stubborn inquired with the cinema NPC about how to submit a film.
"There’s a fee for submission?"
Submitting costs money, as does watching a film, but the most absurd thing is that all Undead think it’s perfectly reasonable.
Because you get to have your work shown in the game world for NPCs to watch and critique; it’s part of the fun of playing the game.
The price isn’t high, and it also deters random video uploads.
After submitting, they noticed [Witch] Hila was still hesitating.
"Want me to recommend something?" My Butt’s the Reddest Among the Monkeys took the initiative to ask.
Social anxiety strikes again.
[Witch] Hila didn’t speak, just looked at her blankly.
"There’s another similar drama to ’Evil Noble Lady and Gentle Demon King’, like ’Lord, Love me once again’, it’s about a handsome Lord and a down-on-her-luck Noble Lady, and also..."
