Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 660: the real audience

On the day the shining was officially released, the only places to see it were Nolan’s two theaters.

Although Mrs. Caesar had brought the original film back to Faroese, she had already warned Josh that it could only be released in Faroese with the king’s permission.

This kind of review did not surprise Josh.

On the day of its release, the famous film critic Light Chaser, aka The Lord of Bones, also posted his film review on the Spellcaster Forum.

This was one of the conditions between Josh and the Lord of Bones, which was that after each film was released, the original film must be given priority for her to see once.

This time, Josh also fulfilled his promise and sent the original film of the shining to her.

Since the Spellcaster Forum came online, apart from playing, the skeleton Duke had another hobby, which was to be a professional film critic.

The popularity of the film reviews written by the Skeleton Duke on the Spellcaster Forum… was unexpectedly high, and the number of replies basically stabilized at around 1,000 to 2,000.

In the past, the skeleton Duke had not been stingy in giving high marks to the movies that Jose had made, but this time..

“Why do I feel like I’ve messed up?”Joshua sat in a corner of the White Thorn Garden Theater’s Hall and browsed through the reviews written by the Lord of Bones. With a perfect score of 10, the Lord of the undead had given him a rating of 6.0.

The initial rating of the lord of bones for “Beauty and the devil”was 8.9, and the rating of Shawshank Redemption was 9.7.

“A boring piece of work that can’t even pass the time.”

The Skeleton Duke did not care about Joshua’s reputation at all. He directly wrote his initial opinion of the movie with the most subjective evaluation.

“Well, that grumpy skeleton can tear down the entire manor. Maybe you should change the ghosts in it to something like the Holy Light Warriors,”Hiri expressed his opinion on the skeleton Duke’s comments.

“I can’t imagine what that kind of shining spirit would look like.”

With a wave of his hand, Joshua closed the magic web interface in front of him and looked at the hall of the White Thorn Theatre again.

The premiere of the shining had attracted a large number of fans to watch, or rather, ‘Joshua’s fans’.

Joshua had produced so many excellent movies, and the word of mouth had long spread in Nolan. When compared with those movies of Faroese.., now, in the eyes of Nolan’s movie fans, there was a kind of ‘Josh’s movie is a masterpiece’equation.

Unfortunately… this time, “The shining”might have disappointed them a little.

“Which number is this?”

Josh watched the two luxuriously dressed nobles support each other as they walked out of the audience passage. Then, he came to the servants of the White Briar theater and loudly asked, “Where is the person in charge of this theater? !”

“The 72nd one. It has been released since the morning. It’s already the eighth show… There are still a few people who haven’t been able to walk out of the theater,”Hiri said.

“Don’t make it sound so scary!”

Joshua looked at the attendant who was being pestered by the two nobles. He seemed to have gotten used to the complaints from the audience.

When the two nobles loudly asked, “How can you show us such an evil thing?”, the attendant’s expression did not change as he took out a shining poster, he pointed at a line of small words written under the poster, “This movie may cause you discomfort, please enjoy it.”

When the two nobles saw the poster, they immediately took a step back. The biggest reason was probably the male lead played by Sir White Thorn Flower. That classic, ferocious smile was branded on the poster.

“The eighth scene is over,”hiri whispered to Joshua. “There seems to be an argument in the movie discussion section of the Spellcaster Forum.”

..

In the underground ruins of the Frost Kingdom.

“Chain, the sacrifice of the Frost Kingdom is at a critical moment. I don’t have time to waste here.”

A slightly plump woman wearing a fur robe was standing in the middle of the ruins and speaking loudly to the priest of the chain.

“The sacrifice is for the birth of the Lord, but first, we need to get close to the Lord and come to this world.”

The priest walked to a stone chair made of stones in the center of the ruins. A petite figure was sitting on the stone chair.

“The agent didn’t inform me of Arthur Crow’s fall. Don’t forget your mission, Chain!”The woman called Thorn said impatiently.

“There’s no need to let Arthur Crow fall. We have found the key to enter.”

A cold voice interrupted their conversation. A woman in a wheelchair slowly walked up to them.

“Mother.”

Father chain and Thorn lowered their heads to the woman in a pious voice.

However, under the dim light of the protocrystal, half of her face was exposed to a ferocious wound. The wound was not made of human flesh, but a strange metal.

“You have something I don’t want to see on you, Thorn.”

Mother stared at the slightly plump woman. Her body trembled slightly, and then she took out a leaf that gave off the aura of life.

“This is the leaf of the world tree that was seized from the Frost Wolf family’s territory. Together with a protocrystal, it can connect to something called the weave,”she said.

“The weave? Is it the product of that Guardian?”

Her mother’s tone did not reveal any emotional fluctuations, but it clearly expressed the word ‘resentment’.

“But it is precisely the product created by that guardian that allows us to touch upon the source. Chain, send the nearest agent here,”her mother ordered the priest.

“Mother, it is just to build a gate connecting to our Lord at the source. I have been preparing for this moment for a long time. I can complete it by myself.”

The priest raised his head and stared at the woman in the wheelchair. There was no emotion in her eyes, but the priest could feel the doubt coming from her.

“God will be satisfied, I promise,”the priest added.

Mother did not listen to the priest’s request. Her eyes looked at the figure sitting on the stone chair, the magic puppet named Heart Lock.

“Has the door been opened?”

Mother felt the energy gathered in Heart Lock’s body and reached out her hand to the two people in front of her.

“I will give you this opportunity. You will share your perception with the heart lock. This way, you will be able to enter her… dream world, the world of origin,”mother said.

“Thank you…”

Father chain looked at the hands that were entangled by the runes. His eyes were like he had seen a miracle. He knelt down in front of him devoutly and held her tightly.

“It’s your turn, Thorn.”His mother extended her other hand to the woman on the other side.

She hesitated for a moment, but she still walked forward and held his mother’s arm. Soon, both of them lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
