Movie

The audience members left the Grand Theater one by one.

The remaining nine emerged victorious during the festival, and the newborn insects who called Luo Di "boss" were forcibly removed and sent to different areas to begin new lives based on their dramatic brain characteristics.

Luo Di is an exception.

His performance in the new generation of actors is very unique and has won the hearts of the audience. If he can strike while the iron is hot, he can attract a large audience and generate unimaginable traffic, producing a lot of theatrical value in a short period of time.

Moreover, the theater director, David Day, also saw in him a deep-seated tendency to feign, which is an important quality for actors.

Luo Di was also forced to sign an actor contract, but this contract did not have any unfair terms and was actually quite fair.

He was asked to join the Grand Theater as an apprentice actor, and the theatre would cover part of his medical expenses during his employment.

This contract will last until all debts are paid off, at which point Luo Di can choose to stay at the theater or leave.

Signing a contract is the only option for Luo Di right now.

His current situation can only be described as extremely bad.

Without a physical body,

Unable to contact the outside world

I don't know the situation of my teammates.

Alone, he relies on a corpse provided by a cruel joke to get by.

In this absolutely passive situation, Luo Di had no initiative whatsoever.

To gain the upper hand, to understand the situation and the other party's attitude, the only option is to go along with their demands.

Looking at the signed contract, David patted his stomach hard.

"Excellent! Now you're one of us! Welcome to the Grand Theater."

Similarly, an arm reached out from between David's eyelids and retracted the signed contract back into his body. A connection was formed between him and Luo Di, as if breaking the agreement would lead to a terrible end.

Luo Di looked directly at the theater's director. "Where are Agatha and Karlien?"

"Oh? The first thing you did after signing the contract wasn't to care about your own body, but to worry about your friends? I've never seen a spineless person like this before. No wonder the monastery accepted you."

Don't worry, we have no reason to kill a nun or an important lighthouse worker.

Moreover, they were all special because they survived the shipwreck.

You were the most severely injured among them, so severely injured that you should have died immediately, yet you miraculously survived. When the insects on our side found you, their first reaction was incomprehensible as to why you were still alive.

It seems there is a force sustaining your life.

It's neither your Hell System nor that strange Pituitary Gland in your brain.

Rather... it's the aura of our ancestors.

It's as if your ancestors wanted you to live.

"Where are they? And where is my true self?"

"The Repair Center, our largest hospital, is also one of the five hospitals in the True Hell that can repair ' Ancestor's Injury '."

Before physical repair can begin, all Ancestor Residue remaining in your body need to be expelled. This process will be lengthy, and it must be lengthy, as even the slightest residue can cause bodily dysfunction.

How long will it take?

"Your situation will require at least a month, right? Your friend will need at least half a month."

"Can I go to the so-called ' Rehabilitation Center ' now to check on the situation?"

Faced with this request, David shook his finger and said, "You've just signed an employment contract, and you need to complete the onboarding process. Let's talk about it after everything is settled."

As long as you focus on your work, your physical body will receive proper treatment.

"So, once I complete the onboarding process, I can go to the Repair Center, right?"

Seeing that Luo Di was determined to do so, David tapped his front teeth and said, "Tsk~ It's a good thing to be vigilant, no wonder you can grow such a 'vigilant tongue'."

Okay~ Once you've completed the onboarding process, I'll send you to the Repair Center to check on the main body's status.

What's the process?

"It's about giving you an initial positioning as an actor."

Consider what kind of script and role suit you best, and how to perform it to achieve the best effect.

If your next performance is even better, you might become one of our most popular performers.

Feel free to suggest any roles you'd like to play, or any theatrical ideas you have. We need to get started as soon as possible, while your popularity is still high.

When it comes to performances, Luo Di's first thought is naturally movies, but he still has some questions to ask.

"What meaning does such a performance have for you guys, or for me, besides making money?"

David was taken aback for a moment by the question, then all his fat started laughing.

"Hahaha! This isn't a question a bug would ask."

Before you came here, you must have killed some insects, right? You have a very faint smell of rats on you, and you must have seen his "play".

The reason he is able to weave scenes and influence the environment is precisely because of the 'externalization of the play'.

Our brains need to "act" to influence the outside world, which is the origin of the name "act brain." It is also the fundamental reason why we can be a major force in the True Hell.

Both performers and viewers can draw inspiration from high-quality dramas to improve their own performances and strengthen their minds.

Intense feelings of pleasure can also satisfy the brain, just as our bodies need to eat.

Drama is an indispensable part of our lives.

An actor who can deliver a high-quality performance will be respected regardless of his background.

Our growth doesn't require endless battles like those of the Spinebreakers.

The performance and viewing of dramas can also give us combat experience; disguise and deception are often more deadly than swords.

The reason I took the risk and made an exception to recruit a Special Newcomer like you is not only because of your performance in the newcomer theater, but also because I saw the qualities of an actor in you.

You're quite the actor, aren't you, Mr. Di?

Or are the creatures in your world all masters of disguise?

As David Day spoke, the black curtain between his eyes opened again. This time, instead of an arm, two eyes staring like copper bells appeared, as if they could see right through Luo Di's mind.

Luo Di nodded. "So, my dramatic thinking can also be improved and perfected in this process, right?"

"That's right, performing in plays often provides a greater boost than watching them... If you can deliver a high-quality performance, your dramatic brain will quickly fill up, reaching the same level of saturation as your spine."

Okay, do you have any ideas about the play yourself?

Do you have movies here?

"Electricity? Shadow?" David rubbed his belly, trying to understand this unfamiliar term by breaking it down into its components.

"It's like recording a drama through image processing, then performing related post-production processing to ultimately create a continuous story that lasts about two hours."

I absolutely love movies about killers.

My true nature happens to lean towards this aspect. If you have the resources to cooperate with me, perhaps we can try to reenact it.

David is interested in anything related to drama.

"Documentary drama, post-production editing, a two-hour story? That sounds interesting. This must be something from your world. Could you bring it over for me to see?"

"I came to the True Hell through consciousness projection. The movie story was recorded in a kind of dead object called a CD, and it also required a matching projection equipment. Since they were all dead objects, they could not be projected over."

"Inanimate objects~ That's easy..."

Having said that,

David's eyelids closed and reopened, and out crawled a fat worm full of Brain Tissue.

"The ' Copy Brain Bug' —simply attach this thing to a so-called inanimate object, and it can replicate its specific structure."

"I can give it a try. However, if I want my consciousness to return to the original world, I must rely on my physical spine as a transmission carrier."

David nodded. "Hmm, this is indeed a troublesome matter."

It's not that I don't believe you, but to verify whether the movie you mentioned is real, please allow me to search the relevant memories in your mind.

You can now try to recall scenes from the movie you watched, which will make it easier for me to retrieve them directly.

"OK."

Luo Di naturally recalled the time he spent watching movies with his class monitor during a winter vacation.

David Day's other eye extended a tiny arm and gently touched Luo Di's forehead, instantly transforming into a viewer and beginning to appreciate the film.

This lasted for an hour and a half.

He convulsed at the sight, drooling all over the floor, and there was a fishy smell.

"Great! Fantastic!"

I've never tried this kind of theatrical presentation before, and the worlds I've invaded before haven't developed similar cultures. Your original world is really interesting.

This cinematic presentation format might actually be feasible, after all, our Grand Theater has always been hosting live performances.

However, live performances inevitably have some shortcomings or rather boring transitional scenes.

I'll think about this carefully. I'll personally take you to the Repair Center later to check on your physical condition. I'll try to get you back as soon as possible, and use the Deforming Brain Bug to bring back as many movie discs and playback devices as possible, including footage of the filming process. I need to study them carefully.

If possible, please also copy the equipment used for filming.

If it works out, I'll let you play the serial killer.

The Grand Theater will also adopt the relevant technology and equipment.

By the way, could you bring the Girl from my memories who was called the 'class monitor' along? Even I couldn't see through her disguise at first glance.

She's simply a born actress.

Judging from the memories, she clearly intended to get close to you. How could such a dangerous person not kill you when she was around?

"She is my friend, but she is currently in a very remote area and I cannot contact her."

"A far-reaching region~ It seems your world has a hierarchical structure, which makes me want to go and take a look."

The arm that grew out of David's Curtain Eye Sockets rubbed rapidly in front of him, and he seemed extremely excited. "Let's go, I'll take you to see the real body~ see if we can be discharged from the hospital early."
