Chapter 846: Sky Curtain: Enemy at the Gate (Part )
The audience's perspective follows the high-altitude camera as it moves forward at high speed. When the camera collides with the sky connecting the earth, a burst of white light erupts, signaling a switch in the screen.

Many viewers squinted because of the dazzling white light, and then saw the white light slowly dissipate, showing the earth from a bird's-eye view of space.

The formation of the sky at the beginning was a macroscopic perspective with the solar system as the main body. Now, from the microscopic perspective with the earth as the main body, we can clearly see the intuitive appearance of half of the earth.

Surrounded by the endless dark universe, half of the sphere is moving close to the vertical sky, a lonely and mysterious atmosphere is overwhelming, and at the same time it is very sci-fi and imaginative.

At this time, some lines came out.

"Since ancient times, this canopy has existed outside the sky."

"We don't know where it came from, but the threat it poses to us is increasing day by day."

The camera suddenly falls and the existence of satellites can be seen, indicating that the world here belongs to a modern society.

"Teacher, I heard that there are more and more aliens and beasts in recent years. We are facing life threats all the time, but we have not found a way to eliminate the source of the threats. Does this mean that our human civilization is doomed to extinction?"

"It's those foreign extremist organizations that advocate 'annihilationism'! They say like crazy that this is a punishment for the crimes committed by mankind. Some extremists even actively approach the sky curtain, and then are swallowed by the foreign objects in the sky curtain and transformed into aliens. It is because of this that aliens have appeared more and more frequently in recent years. I think the country should organize forces to eliminate these extremist organizations first!"

"Yes! That's how it should be!"

"That's how it should be!"

A group of people echoed loudly, and the camera also parted the clouds to reveal the earth.

The audience saw the shape of the earth's plates more clearly, with the Chinese territory as the main high-altitude perspective, and an inclined sky line from XJ to Zhejiang dividing the earth into two.

Seeing this map layout, the audience also learned the background of the story based on an overview on the map.

At this time, a voice with a different opinion came from the screen.

"How can this be! The so-called extremist organizations are also a collection of twisted souls formed out of grief, anger and despair. They are also human beings in essence. We should use a compassionate heart to influence them and awaken them. This is in line with the humanitarian spirit we advocate!"

"Yes! Even if there were no such people, there would be all kinds of animals approaching the Sky Curtain anytime and anywhere. The animals are unaware of the threat posed by the Sky Curtain. Once they get close, they will be devoured by the alien objects and transformed into strange beasts. Your so-called idea of ​​eliminating extremist organizations is simply a temporary solution and does not address the root cause!"

"Yes, we should find the root cause of the problem so as to solve the threat once and for all."

As soon as these words were spoken, more people expressed indignation and ridicule.

"Who doesn't want to solve the threat once and for all, but has there been a solution after all these years?"

"That's right! You're just making sarcastic remarks!"

"Yeah, who doesn't want to solve the problem once and for all..."

The sound of a noisy quarrel came out of the screen, and the camera was locked on a place not far from the sky. Although there was no place name marked, the audience knew that this was Shenghai as soon as they saw the map.

The camera seemed to be designed to tell the audience where this was, and then the scene switched in the sky, entering a multimedia classroom.

From the word "teacher" in the lines just now, the audience also knows that this is a school classroom scene.

Then the audience's eyes lit up, because when the screen switched to the multimedia classroom, the camera immediately locked on Liu Yifei in the noisy and chaotic classroom atmosphere.

The heroine Lin Yi officially appears, and her makeup and styling are revealed.

A set of white military uniform, the Chinese style, with buttons on the top, a brown jacket, and a pigtail falling neatly behind the back.

This makeup is simple but cannot hide the naturally beautiful face. It is simple yet full of energy and spirit. Overall, it gives people the feeling of a very upright and charismatic female martial artist.

If this kind of makeup is put on other actresses of the same age, it may make them look too young. However, for Liu Yifei, who has left a deep impression in many costume dramas, this kind of makeup not only does not look out of place in the eyes of the audience, but is very appropriate.

Putting aside the filters, Liu Yifei has a heroic temperament when she is calm, which is also suitable for the dignified and upright image brought by the current makeup.

"A different Liu Yifei has another kind of beauty." Some viewers saw Liu Yifei's new image and appreciated it with a sense of freshness.

Chu Xuan in the front row tilted his head slightly and said, "The editing teacher has good skills. The presentation of this entrance shot makes you look like a white lotus. It's quite beautiful."

Hearing such praise, Liu Yifei asked in a low voice: "Am I not beautiful without this shot?"

Chu Xuan shut up immediately. He was speechless as he found fault with such a nice compliment.

Liu Yifei smiled, then leaned on Chu Xuan's shoulder and continued watching the movie with him and the audience.

In the eyes of the audience, no matter how noisy the college students in the classroom were, Lin Yi, played by Liu Yifei, always remained quiet alone, lowered her head and flipped through the textbooks, giving people a sense of déjà vu between a quiet girl and an iceberg beauty.

The aura brought by the martial arts uniform, hairstyle and makeup makes her look less like a girl, while the youthfulness under the collagen on her face makes her look less icy. She is the type who can be salty or sweet at any time without surprising anyone.

The camera gives a close-up of her side face, with the main shot of Liu Yifei lowering her head to read, and an additional shot of the noise breaking out in the classroom.

Then Liu Yifei gave a monologue, and the noise in the classroom gradually died down during the monologue.

【“Since the day I was born, the boundless sky has become the most mysterious and magnificent existence in my eyes.

When I was a child, I didn’t know what it was, and many people didn’t know it either. They just thought of it as a spectacle, an incomparable and magnificent sight.

It was not until we grew up that we realized that it was our motherland that protected us too well, not letting us know that we were always in a crisis environment, so that we could grow up happily.

But the accumulated crisis will eventually explode, and the silent truth will eventually break the tranquility.

It turns out that this sky is not a beautiful sight, nor is it a great wonder.

It is the source of disaster that can destroy our human civilization.

Every inch it moves, it eats up an inch of our living space.

According to historical records, we once had a vast world, but now we can only survive in an increasingly smaller world.

We don’t know when the end will be, and there is no pattern to its movement, but what we do know is that sooner or later we will cease to exist.

Ten years ago, when this truth was revealed by a group of emotionally broken people, the whole world was in chaos.

Furthermore, the foreign objects hidden in the sky can devour and alienate any life form that approaches the sky. After the alienation, the gray-white people and beasts will be controlled to kill humans at will...

All the secrets that had been hidden by the world's top leaders for hundreds of years were revealed, and at that moment, chaos broke out.

People with mental breakdown become crazy, and anti-humans openly clamor for the so-called gods to come and eliminate this heresy of humanity on their behalf.

I believe that only by becoming strong can we fight against everything. Any slogans and words we shout out are just covering up the fear in our hearts.

In order to deal with aliens and beasts and defend the border of Tianmu, the country has established several military-managed martial arts schools to cultivate more outstanding combat talents to safeguard the country's peace.

This is also my ambition, to make myself stronger and protect the country..."]

"Lin Yi, do you have anything to say?"

The self-monologue was cut off, and the classroom noise that had been reduced due to the monologue returned to normal, and then became quiet again when the teacher called the roll.

Liu Yifei raised her head and stood up. Facing the teacher's questions, she remained calm and composed.

"As for the major events of civilizational change, we just need to trust the country. The top leaders of the country will naturally think of what we think of, so there is no need for us to worry about it."

"For us as individuals, the only thing we can do is to study hard, learn well, and train well to make ourselves stronger. Then, we should stop daydreaming and waste time. Facing crises with an unsteady heart will only lead to a dead end."

After hearing these words, some students on the screen showed a little disdain, while some were very admiring. The teacher played by Zeng Baoyi on the podium laughed, and the audience outside the screen also laughed.

Liu Yifei's Lin Yi has a very strong personality. Just these two short sentences reflect this character's straightforward and frank nature, as well as a sense of courage and a bit of domineering, and a high level of cognition that surpasses all other students and can see through the essence of things.

These points combined give people the feeling that this heroine is intelligent, but her wisdom lacks emotional intelligence. This heroine is also very strong-willed, and her courage, determination and confidence can be seen from just a few words.

To sum it up in one description, she is a beautiful steel girl.

"You are worthy of being our class monitor. You spoke very well." Zeng Baoyi admired and led the students to applaud Liu Yifei.

Concubine Liu Yi sat down and the applause stopped.

Zeng Baoyi said, "We will soon be conducting our patrol test before graduation. Students will be divided into groups of two. After class, the students will discuss among themselves and then hand in their confirmed lists to the class monitor."

Zeng Baoyi looked around as if she was looking for someone. After looking for a while and finding nothing, she shook her head and said, "Lin Yi, please inform Wei Ran later. This guy is skipping class again."

Wei Ran skipped classes? ... The audience found it funny. No wonder the male protagonist Chu Xuan didn't appear. It turned out that he skipped classes.

What kind of character setting is Wei Ran? ... The audience just felt that the plot became more interesting.

Also, what is the patrol test before graduation? ... Another novel setting that aroused the audience's curiosity.

The classroom became noisy after class. Some people came to Liu Yifei to sign up, and some people strongly wanted to team up with Liu Yifei to take the test, but they were all politely declined by Liu Yifei.

After the students dispersed, Liu Yifei was alone in the classroom packing up the registration materials.

In the eyes of the audience, Liu Yifei picked up a pen and wrote two names in the blank space at the end of the material, one was Lin Yi and the other was Wei Ran.

This was to help Wei Ran sign up, and also let Wei Ran and himself become a testing group.

"It seems like these two people have a close relationship." Some viewers speculated.

If we didn't have a good relationship, we wouldn't do this.

"Teacher, everything has been filled out." Liu Yifei came to the office.

"Okay, what about Wei Ran? With his personality, he definitely doesn't want to go. Just let him be." Zeng Baoyi said, and then looked at the report in surprise: "Huh? He is in the same group with you? Have you discussed it?"

"No discussion, I make the decision on my own." Liu Yifei shook her head.

"Ah?" Zeng Baoyi exclaimed in surprise.

Liu Yifei said: "He always lags behind in every assessment, causing our class's scores to be lower than other classes. As the class monitor, I have the responsibility to turn this situation around."

There were a few "chuckles" from the audience. Chu Xuan's Wei Ran always drags the team down? What kind of personality is this character?
Zeng Baoyi said with relief: "The teacher is very happy that you have this idea, but you should still discuss it with him."

"I will." Liu Yifei agreed and turned to leave.

The picture shows that we have arrived at a militarized campus, and in the distance we can see some armored vehicles and tanks, just like a military district.

But what makes the audience feel more deeply is that compared with all the weird things in Chenglong's world, the green trees and red flowers in the picture are really in sharp contrast.

The earth is divided into two, forming two completely different civilizations. This story background is really creative.

"Miss Lin." A voice came from behind. Liu Yifei stopped and turned to look.

The camera turned as she did, and the male protagonist Chu Xuan finally appeared.

Completely different from Liu Yifei's righteous appearance in martial arts uniform, Chu Xuan had messy hair, a short-sleeved shirt and jeans with holes in them. He walked towards them with his hands in his pockets, looking very cool and handsome.

Miss Lin? ... This name makes the audience feel interesting. The frivolous tone clearly shows that these two are not in a relationship. So what kind of relationship is it?

Liu Yifei looked at him coldly without saying a word.

Chu Xuan seemed to be used to her behavior and didn't take it seriously. He smiled to himself, "Is the registration finished? Then there's nothing for me to do, right?"

"It's none of your business." Liu Yifei said coldly and nodded slightly.

Chu Xuan took a breath in exaggeratedly, and said with relief and satisfaction: "That's good, let's go!"

He turned and walked away, waving.

Liu Yifei stared at his back and said calmly, "Pack your luggage and follow me to the front line the day after tomorrow."

Chu Xuan's steps froze, as if he was frozen in place. He turned back in shock: "What did you say?! Didn't I not sign up?"

Liu Yifei was very calm: "I've signed you up, be in the same group with me."

"You...!" Chu Xuan turned around and walked over, scolding: "What's the matter with you signing up for me? Does this count?"

"Okay, the list has been handed over to Teacher Yang." Liu Yifei said.

"I...!" Chu Xuan was silent, and then he became furious: "Lin Yi! I didn't provoke you! You ruined my good thing!"

Liu Yifei said, "A good thing? Once you enter a martial arts school, the tuition is waived, and food and accommodation are provided. If you don't take the test and get a 0 on purpose and don't graduate, and then shamelessly apply to study abroad, you can get free food, free drinks and free accommodation for another year. In your mind, is this a good thing?"

The audience was stunned. What the hell? Just to get free food, free drinks and free accommodation in school? This Wei Ran must be a bad boy! A complete scumbag and a scoundrel!

This... Chu Xuan's character is actually such a personality, it's really unique.

The audience had a lot of fun. If Liu Yifei's Lin Yi could find some similarities with Xiaolongnu, then Chu Xuan's role of Wei Ran was another completely new character beyond their impression following the series of roles played by Chu Xuan.

"What else?" Chu Xuan spread his hands. "If this school didn't provide good treatment, why would I come here? If I graduate successfully and join the frontline troops, it would be a matter of life and death. It would be much better to stay here without graduation. I have food, drink, shelter, and so many soldiers to protect me. Isn't this very comfortable?"

Even though Chu Xuan is popular with the public, many viewers frowned and felt a little unhappy when they heard these lines.

"Is this what you're after?"

"Can't you?"

"Free food and drink for the rest of your life? Also, what obligation do the soldiers have to protect people like you?"

"This is my business, you have no right to interfere. Now, immediately, come with me to the office to find Teacher Yang and cross my name off."

Chu Xuan was very angry and wanted to grab Liu Yifei's arm and pull her to find the teacher.

But before his hand even touched Liu Yifei, Liu Yifei grabbed him with a backhand.

Chu Xuan twisted and bent over, with Liu Yifei grabbing his arm with one hand and pressing his back with one knee.

Chu Xuan was unable to move for a moment, and he kept gasping for air in pain: "Let go, let go, it hurts!"

Seeing this scene, the audience shouted in their hearts: Well done!

In the front row, Chenglong tilted his head and glanced at the couple with interest.

Liu Yifei and Chenglong exchanged glances, then looked at Chu Xuan with a teasing look.

Chu Xuan was caught between two teasing gazes, and his face looked a little embarrassed.

Some viewers found it very interesting. They usually only enjoyed watching Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei’s dog food, but they didn’t expect that it would be so fun to watch the two of them not getting along with each other.

At this moment, the audience saw clearly the relationship between the male and female protagonists, and also understood the word Liu Yifei said in an interview: happy enemies.

On the screen, Liu Yifei let go of Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan took three steps back, rubbing his hands and legs, and breathing in pain: "Please don't be so violent. God is really fair. He gave you a face that scored 100 points, and a violent heart that scored 0 points. The combination makes your face only 50 points. You failed, you know? You have to change. This is a big problem."

The audience couldn't help laughing. Look what the hell he was saying. Why was Wei Ran so funny?

"Wei Ran, in fact, as long as you are self-disciplined, you will be very good." Lin Yi's tone suddenly softened.

This allows the audience to see another side of Liu Yifei, that the icy beauty hides a warm heart, and also makes this character more full.

However, Chu Xuan didn't buy it and said disdainfully: "Oh, hard tactics don't work, so you try soft tactics? This again? Besides, am I not self-disciplined?"

Liu Yifei put away the warmth on her face and said coldly, "Are you self-disciplined?"

“Persisting in being undisciplined every day, isn’t this a kind of self-discipline?” Chu Xuan said passionately.

The audience was stunned. What the hell was this?
Is being undisciplined every day the same as being self-disciplined?

This seems to make some sense.

But what kind of fallacy is this?
A large number of audiences laughed and found that Wei Ran was a funny guy!
Liu Yifei was speechless: "Wei Ran, you have never succeeded in anything you have done in the past few years at school. Don't you think this is sad?"

Chu Xuan put his hands in his trouser pockets: "Keep failing, isn't this a kind of success?"

Here it comes again... This time the audience couldn't help but burst into laughter. Is Wei Ran here to make people laugh?

Liu Yifei's chest rose and fell slightly. Although her face was cold, it was obvious that she was angry.

"The day after tomorrow morning, follow me to the front line, no discussion!"

"I... Can't you just let me go, big sister? You're nosy. My dad saved you because he was a soldier. That's what he should do. Don't repay me. I'm really convinced!"

The audience suddenly realized, that's what it was!

Obviously, the heroine is very independent and proud, but she spends so much effort on the hero, a poor student. It turns out that there is this kind of relationship between them, and the heroine has a mentality of repaying the hero.

At the same time, a hidden message is also revealed. The heroine goes to the hero to repay her gratitude instead of looking for his father, so it is very likely that the hero's father is dead.

"No room for negotiation!" Liu Yifei had a cold face and said little.

"Can't we let it go?" Chu Xuan asked seriously.

"No." Liu Yifei said firmly.

"Lin Yi." Chu Xuan sighed: "You are my ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties."

He compromised.

The audience was smiling happily. Chenglong was pretending to be serious, Liu Yifei was serious and cold, and when it came to Chu Xuan, the style became a comedy. The personalities of the three characters were very prominent, but only Chu Xuan was in the sinking market, which made them very happy to watch.

Several film critics also found it very interesting and took notes while watching: the protagonist Chengxiong is a strategist of the highest level, who wants to achieve the goal of leading the crowd out of trouble in a serious style;

The heroine Lin Yi is a determined idealist and a martial arts expert. She wants to make herself stronger and defend her country as her ideal...

The heroine just didn't finish the last sentence of her monologue. Combined with what Chu Xuan's character revealed, that his father saved Lin Yi, it is very likely that Lin Yi's parents died in a disaster and only Lin Yi was saved, so Lin Yi is suspected of seeking revenge on Yi Ren and Hui Guang.

The hero, Wei Ran, is a scoundrel and a poor student, but this may be due to the blow he suffered from his father's death. Otherwise, with Lin Yi's straightforward and frank personality, she would not have said that Wei Ran would be excellent as long as he was self-disciplined, unless Wei Ran had an excellent side in the past.

The main storyline of Wei Ran's character is unclear. This male protagonist should be a passive protagonist and should be forced by the female protagonist Lin Yi to follow a main storyline.

At the same time, the role of Chenglong is obviously another transformation of his. All the comedy and funny parts are currently placed on Chu Xuan, and the heroine Lin Yi should be the core figure in promoting the main line.

The film critic wrote this note based on his movie-watching experience, then looked up and continued watching the movie with everyone else. The three main characters were given their own labels under the camera language, and it seemed that the main storyline was about to begin.
