Chapter 412: Premiere -ThirdhWatchatch)
Minister Dias was honored to sit next to Crondo III.
Crondo III did not choose to sit in the VIP seat of the Central Theater. Instead, he sat in an ordinary seat like a visitor.
Although Minister Dias was honored to sit next to this distinguished king, he was still a little restless.
“Look, those old guys are here.”Crondo III sat at the top of the audience, where he could clearly see the audience below.
“Master Brad and Master Kelsen, they really don’t… like the appearance of movies.”
Minister Diaz answered Crondo III stiffly. In the entire Faroese, only Crondo III dared to call those masters of Works ‘Old Guys’.
“Aren’t you one of them, Minister Diaz?”Crondo III said in a low voice.
This sentence made Minister Diaz’s entire body stiffen. He felt that his heart was about to stop beating.
“Your Majesty Crondo, I… I…”Just as Minister Diaz was trying to explain himself, Crondo III reached out and patted his shoulder.
“I understand how you feel, Minister Diaz.”
Cromdo III turned his gaze to the audience seated below. Some of them were high-ranking nobles of Faroese, while the other were famous playwrights of Faroese, before they took their seats, they would first nod at Cromdo III.
“I love Faroese’s stage plays, and my passion for stage plays is no less than any of you,”Cromdo III said.
This sentence made Minister Diaz slightly stunned. He had heard some conservative elders complain that the king was too ‘fond of the new and disliked the old’, ‘He actually advocates the creation of demons and thinks that it is far superior to Faroese’s traditional art’and so on.
But in fact, it was not so.
“Faroese’s stage plays are the best, aren’t they? This art form combines the essence of Faroese from thousands of years ago. It can not be replaced at all, and I once firmly believed in it.”Crondo III crossed his fingers, his deep voice was filled with extremely complicated emotions.
“But when I first saw the ‘movie’that Canala brought back from Nolan, other than appreciating it, I felt more indignant.”
“Your Majesty…”Minister Diaz gradually understood Crondon III’s feelings, and his heart also became somewhat sorrowful.
“At that moment, I realized the limits of stage play. The form of expression and method of dissemination of ‘movie’has completely surpassed stage play, so… I am indignant. I have also thought of refusing to let ‘movie’enter Faroese like all of you, but is this really useful?”Crondon III looked at the figure sitting at the front of the audience, that was Madam Caesar.
“The answer is that it’s useless. Even if I reject it, that chaos demon can still produce many excellent movies. The people will never choose the past foolishly. Karana gladly chose to accept the future. As the ruler of Faroese, I can not let the Faroese lag behind any other country in the art form of performance.”
Minister Diaz listened to the calm narration of Crondo III. If it were not for the lack of space around him, he might have knelt on the ground and listened to his words.
The king was regretting the passing of an era. This kind of regret was the most powerless kind. Even if he wanted to resist, there was nothing he could do.
“The stage play will not die. It will forever remain in the memories of the Farosi people. The appearance of the ‘movie’has injected new vitality into the Farosi art.”
The previous dull tone of his voice was swept away, and his voice was filled with anticipation.
“Minister Diaz, perhaps the stage play will not be recognized by the bisques and the ostians, but the movie will definitely be able to!”Said Crondo III.
“But Your Majesty, the citizens of the steel nation have a huge prejudice against Farosi. I really can’t imagine those rude guys sitting obediently in the audience.”
Minister Diaz still did not have any confidence in his mission.
Coronado III did not answer him, because the screen in the theater had officially begun to emit a faint light.
The slightly noisy discussions in the audience seats instantly disappeared.
Minister Diaz did not complain to Coronado III anymore. Judging from Coronado III’s attitude, he had to accept this mission.
The only thing Minister Diaz could do now was to find some highlights from this ‘movie’. Some highlights that would attract the interest of the ‘barbarians’in the steel nation who did not know anything about art.
A primitive forest shrouded in fog was reflected in Minister Diaz’s eyes. There was also a dense drumming sound.
“When I was lying in the military hospital, my limbs were crippled and I could barely walk.”
The male lead’s low monologue suddenly sounded in the movie. Minister Diaz felt as if the voice was right beside his ear.
The primitive forest in the picture seemed to be right before his eyes. He only needed to reach out his hand to touch it.
He could watch a performance that was no different from reality? When Minister Diaz saw the beginning, he immediately thought of this promotional highlight of the movie.
The main reason why the citizens of the country of steel did not like stage plays was that the performance of the stage play was too fake. All the performances were limited to one stage.
However, the movie was completely different. At this moment, Minister Diaz only felt that he was in a primitive jungle.
Following the dim light, Minister Diaz immediately took out a notebook and pen and began to write down the ‘highlight’of the movie that he had thought of. He was waiting for the time when he would go to the country of steel in the future so that he could trick the Barbarians to watch it.
Minister Diaz had just written down the first line when the scene of the primeval forest suddenly disappeared. In its place was the male lead waking up in a sealed environment.
“People don’t dream when they sleep in low temperatures…”
What… was this place? In a coffin? Minister Diaz recalled a drama in which the male lead woke up from a coffin to take revenge. However, the following plot far exceeded the limits of Minister Diaz’s imagination.
“Tommy is an alchemist, I’m not…”
Following the monologue of the male lead, the ‘Coffin’was suddenly pulled open by something. The scenery outside the ‘coffin’made Minister Diaz stop what he was recording in his hands.
It was a space made of metal and magical particles that spewed out. The original Crystal Lamp, which he was already very familiar with, gave him a strange feeling in this movie.
The people around him were floating in the air as if they had been hit by the “Levitation Spell”of Order Magic.
Where was the male lead? !
The same question filled the minds of all the audience, including Minister Diaz.
“He wants to find a new plane in the outer space and find a new home for mankind.”The next monologue of the male lead once again revealed some information.
A new… plane?
A large number of questions occupied Minister Diaz’s mind.
“You’ve already been frozen in low temperature for five years and nine months, Day 22.”The person who looked like a pharmacist in the picture shouted at everyone.
Low temperature freezing… Minister Diaz had heard that some mages who studied the frost system would freeze themselves into ice sculptures in order to obtain a longer lifespan.
But what were these people willing to freeze for so long? Escape?
The next second, a scene suddenly zoomed out. In an empty space, a huge object made of steel was slowly floating in the space.
Following the reflection of the metal on the surface of the huge object, a blue sphere was formed. Minister Diaz’s pen fell to the ground.
Is this the legendary new plane?
