The filming of the movie titled “Stench” has concluded.
Director and Producer: David Asmodeus Dai
Lighting: Oculus
Props: H. Hawk
Makeup: Wu Wen
Main Actor: Jock Dean (playing himself)
Supporting Actor: Luo Di (playing himself)
The entire filming process was completed in one take, a single uninterrupted shot.
Although David spent a long ti engrossed in internet cafes, he acquired excellent computer skills and quickly edited the film using a unique Hell ga brain.
The movie cover has also been completed, featuring the final scene.
Joker, painted entirely white, crouches in a filthy toilet, with his head deeply buried, surrounded by fog.
David seems quite satisfied with the final product, “Personally, I think it’s quite good. Luo Di, how about contacting a distributor now, promote the movie, and see the response?”
“Let’s not. It seems troubleso, feels like it’s enough for us to keep it as a nto.”
Luo Di’s initial intention was to make a movie for himself without ever thinking of actually having it screened or released on streaming platforms.
However, David took a step forward, his belly pressing against Luo Di’s body, placing two greasy hands on his shoulders, gently kneading: “The quality of this movie is very high, at least from my personal aesthetic it’s very good. If you have connections, just let soone handle it, it might receive a good response.
You’re still young and don’t understand the ‘benefits’ in this.
Once this movie gets a good reputation and starts spreading widely, you’ll gain more than just superficial attention and cash.
You could gain a group of ‘fans’ or be called ‘admirers’. As you continue to develop, these admirers might be of great help to you.”
“Alright, then I’ll give it a try.”
This is his first ti making a movie, and it’s a special dream he has held onto for a long ti.
Now it’s achieved, and the final product seems decent.
If that’s the case, then give it a try.
Anyway, the threat from the Outer Realm is temporarily eliminated, based on the information from Teacher Guo, the corner should remain peaceful for a long ti, he doesn’t need to rush, having so hobbies is nice too.
Luo Di imdiately made a phone call.
Although Luo Di rarely mingles in the human world now, the relationships he established before are still intact, not to ntion he’s still an important mber of the Exploration Bureau, any major company would want to have a good relationship with him.
This call was made to one of the five major companies, “rcury Group”.
Less than five minutes passed.
An Italian man, with a rcury emblem on his chest and wearing a sharp suit, drove over.
“Mr. Luo Di, you can directly give the final dia product. Additionally, if you have any screening requirents you can state them, including the thod of release, screening schedule, marketing strategies, etc.
If you want to go directly to streaming platforms or run via the underground industry chain that’s also possible.”
“I don’t understand much about that, you guys decide.”
“Alright, concerning subsequent revenue shares, etc…”
“I’m personally quite busy, and will mostly be staying in the corner later on, you can follow your company’s standards.”
“Sure! Let’s go with the theatrical release route, the subsequent shares will be directly credited to your personal account. Since you’ve provided the final product, once the review process is completed on our end, we can release it as early as ten days.
Of course, it’s best to conduct a series of promotional activities beforehand, specifics will be decided by the company.”
“Okay.”
Luo Di didn’t expect the other party’s efficiency to be so high, growing more eager about the performance on the silver screen.
After the staff left, Luo Di was in a good mood, turned to the three seniors.
“How about I treat everyone to a al?”
David was the first to waive his hand and refuse, “No thanks~ The season just updated the day before yesterday, we’re eager to rank up! Besides, instant noodles are just as delicious, there’s no need to waste ti eating out, gaming is more important.
When you get back, tell Lebeite to co over when he’s free! The guys are still waiting for him to rank up, there’s no shortage of benefits.”
“Alright.”
Luo Di also had sothing important that needed imdiate handling, so he didn’t insist on formalities.
Moreover, he could tell that the trio were in a hurry not to go online, but likely to head to Hell to share the events regarding the Outer God in the corner.
Luo Di had already shared the entire process’s mory information, especially Hook, who remained in a deep state of thought, brows furrowed.
The expansion of an entire worldview, True Hell is bound to take action.
…
[Capital-World Headquarters (E.I.A)]
The relevant detection equipnt is verifying the identity of two visitors.
≮ Identity confird, Investigator Luo Di, Vortex Town (special collaboration) mber Wu Wen, authorized to proceed to [Exploration Bureau].
Due to unknown spatial fluctuations present in Luo Di, using teleportation devices isn’t suitable, please proceed with conventional thods. ≯
The two took a bus to the Boundary (Limbo), different from the past, this ti it wasn’t just Luo Di alone taking the vehicle.
Wu Wen sat beside him, wide-eyed, gazing at the scenes outside the window.
As a monster, it was her first ti coming to the World Bureau, her first ti seeing this area developed by humans, located between the Human World and the Corner.
Due to the success of the last joint operation, humans had already established a cooperative relationship with Vortex Town, and any monster belonging to Vortex Town would be recognized by humans.
They could go to the Exploration Bureau and also return to the Human World through the Boundary.
This kind of “harmony” was absolutely unimaginable before.
Wu Wen mumbled to herself as she looked at the scenery of the Boundary, “Humans do indeed have certain ‘privileges’, and this Boundary might have been willingly offered by the Corner, providing humans who just arrived at the Corner with a buffer zone to gradually explore it and drastically reduce mortality rates.
This is completely different from the Pseudo-Persons.
Pseudo-Persons elevated through seams not only lack such a buffer zone but also have no place to stay.
anwhile, they will face various crises, either being preyed upon, assaulted by Fear, or directly captured by slavers from the City of Sin.
Although monsters inherently resonate with the Corner and Fear… initially, humans with the Boundary will have a certain advantage in exploration.
The Corner, although dead, has written comprehensive [Rules] in advance.
These rules can conduct a relatively fair “screening,” whether one takes the monster route or the human route, all have a chance to reach the deepest part and contact the Corner’s remains.
The arrival of the Outer Realm has eased the hostile relationship between the two, which is quite a good start.”
“Privilege of humans, huh?”
Luo Di thought of sothing, opened his palm, and a miniature Iron Maiden appeared. What it held was the [pituitary] stripped from Joke’s body.
The pituitary of a mature monster,
also a special pituitary accommodating deep Fear (Mist) and the Outrealm comic “Human Head Balloons.”
Luo Di was anxious to head to the Exploration Bureau, precisely to use another human privilege.
“Squad Leader, do you know about ‘Relics’?”
“In the ti when I first arrived at the Corner, I had a small-scale conflict with so investigators and saw one of their leaders using such an item.
The situation at the ti was very dangerous, and I decisively used a Disguise to escape.
This thing is very different from the ‘Horror Props’ commonly used by monsters. I have no idea how it ca to be.
All I know is that it fits the investigator perfectly, working with their pituitary for so deep transformation, greatly amplifying the investigator’s own power.
This Joker’s pituitary is quite special, and I wonder what kind of Relic it could beco. It will surely satisfy my curiosity about how these so-called Relics co to be.”
Luo Di looked at the pituitary shaped like a balloon in his hand, “My only concern is the matching problem… Joke’s essence of Fear is completely different from mine, with a very different style, perhaps it can’t be made into a Relic.”
However, Wu Wen kept smiling and whispered, “Don’t worry~ Matching isn’t a concern… I’m more interested in what kind of Relic we’ll ultimately get, if it’s a weapon, Miss gin might be left aside again.”
Those words caused the dark Spine to squirm slightly before settling down quietly.
Luo Di hurriedly shook his head in denial, “It shouldn’t be a weapon, none of Joke’s abilities, including his thods of killing, relate to weapons.
Besides, I’ve recently gathered so intel about ‘Soul Repair’; there’s an organization in the Corner that seems to excel in this.
When the ti cos, I plan to pay a visit, Squad Leader, do you want to join if you’re free?”
“Where?”
“Jiang Mansion.”
…
Eighty or ninety’s style departnt store, below the Exploration Bureau Headquarters.
Luo Di and Wu Wen had just arrived when they saw a familiar face waiting by the roadside, reading a novel on his phone.
Beside him stood a woman over two ters tall, eating a fruity lollipop bought from the supermarket.
“Yu Ze, Miss Song.”
“Oh, hotown fellow, you’re finally here? Co with quickly, I’ve already arranged with the Technical Developnt Departnt, we can go straight up.”
Luo Di walked over and imdiately noticed a detail.
Both Yu Ze and Song Huiwen had a special armband on the upper end of their sleeves, one gold and the other black.
“Yu Ze, what is your current status? Is Miss Song also registered with the Exploration Bureau?”
“Didn’t I participate in the operation to retake the City of Sin last ti? I moved with my grandmother and the others and collaborated with the human alliance.
I perford well, and luckily, I was exceptionally promoted to deputy director of the Extinction Departnt.
Miss Song passed the relevant review under my recomndation and currently belongs to the Extinction Departnt as a special mber. She only acts together with , which is a kind of registration.
Now the Exploration Bureau and Vortex Town are in deep cooperation; if Miss Wu Wen is interested, she can register as well.”
“Thanks, I just need the identity of a Vortex Town resident.”
“Alright.”
Luo Di was surprised at Yu Ze’s personal status, “You beca a deputy director so quickly?”
Yu Ze suddenly stepped forward and whispered in a voice only the two could hear, “I told you I got lucky~ There are three deputy director positions, and one was vacated during the last operation, so with my good performance, I was exceptionally promoted.”
“Will you stay here often afterward?”
“The teleportation device has already connected both sides, so staying at either is the sa. There are currently elite investigators going to Vortex Town; both sides are fully connected.
I won’t miss my classes, nor will I delay matters at the Exploration Bureau.
I just want to improve quickly, or else, I’m afraid you’ll surpass , hotown fellow… I can’t lose again.”
