Challenge

The air at this time was stuffy and hot. A group of people were standing on the asphalt road. Not far away was a huge warehouse similar to a container. Due to the high temperature, even the scene in the air was slightly distorted.

Rao Zhou Yan, who has always been informal, couldn't help squinting his eyes, and put his palm against the brow bone to block the glare of the sun.

But what surprised him was that Mr. K, the host who seemed to be well dressed, seemed to be in an air-conditioned room, without a trace of sweat on his face.

He still maintained an elegant posture standing in front of everyone, and continued to tell the rules of the game: "Here you will decide the winner through team or individual competition, and only one winner will be rewarded in the end. "

When mentioning rewards, Yuan Yu beside Zhou Yan straightened his chest involuntarily, showing the pride of a senior special effects artist.

"What about the eliminated ones?" Someone asked.

Zhou Yan looked at that person, who was also a special effects artist in the industry. That person met Zhou Yan's eyes, and he nodded slightly.

Looking away, Zhou Yan faintly sensed that something was wrong. Everyone who got out of the car just now seemed to be divided into two factions, and the young man who used the wind power was standing opposite, looking arrogantly at Zhou Yan and his group .

Could it be that the people in the bus are divided into the supernatural department and the special effects department?Such a classification may seem a little strange.

"What if someone is eliminated?"

Shi Lingxue, who had been drowsy all this time, stood lazily under the shade of a tree, raised her hand and shouted loudly.

An unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of Mr. K's mouth, and he said, "You will find out later."

"Okay, everyone has had enough rest. Next, we will enter our competition venue. Please read the instructions in the manual carefully. This place is a deserted island. I can't guarantee that you will encounter any danger."

After finishing speaking, Mr. K turned around and left neatly, walking towards the huge container warehouse.

Zhou Yan and Yuan Yu exchanged glances and followed behind the crowd.

"Zhou Yan, Zhou Yan, why do I feel that there are other supernatural beings in this bus?" Yuan Yu rolled his eyes, tugged at Zhou Yan's sleeve, and whispered.

"Yes," Zhou Yan nodded, and replied in a very soft voice, "There are two factions, one is ordinary special effects artists like us, and the other is people with various skills. I think this classification is a bit strange. .”

"Of course it's strange."

The slightly louder voice startled the two who had ghosts in their hearts. Qiqi looked back and found that it was Shi Lingxue.

The sun was pouring down on her wheat-colored skin, she approached the two of them, and said: "According to past experience, they are all supernatural beings, or both are special effects artists. But with so many supernatural beings appearing again, there must be something wrong."

Yuan Yu swallowed, and said nervously, "You mean, ordinary people like us are in danger?"

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows. No wonder they are all special effects artists who are familiar with various routines. They are surprisingly receptive to such weird things, and they can also quickly extract effective information.

Shi Lingxue nodded with a serious expression, and said, "There must be danger."

"Not necessarily," Zhou Yan unfolded the promotional page that had been folded many times, pointed to the red letter on it and said, "The strange host specifically explained that the theme of this competition is faceoff, and the third article It also explained that there is a prop room and material room specially prepared for special effects artists, in fact, the theme of this competition is still special effects artists."

"That's right, don't worry, let's go and see what's in that big iron box first." Seeing that everyone else had entered the warehouse, Yuan Yu hurriedly dragged Zhou Yan and Shi Lingxue to the warehouse.

When they walked into the warehouse, they were greeted with a bit of biting cold air.

It is not the air-conditioning that is unique to the air conditioner, but the coldness that penetrates into the bone marrow. The bright lights seem to never illuminate the surrounding scenery.

Zhou Yangang wanted to alert others, but the display in front of him attracted all eyes.

This is a studio that all special effects artists dream of. There is a neat workbench in the center of the huge room, and vertical cabinets are set up on all the walls. The names of materials that can be used for any special effects makeup are displayed on those The countertop of the vertical cabinet.

Further down is the prop room dedicated to making props, brand-new thermoplastic film instruments, laser engraving machines and even 3D printing instruments.

The special effects artists present couldn't help being dazzled, and they all had the same idea in their hearts—this is simply heaven.

What is different from the special effects artists is the attitude of those supernatural beings. They gathered in the corner of the room, all with serious expressions, and made various analyzes of the displays in the room.

"The air here is extremely cold, and I feel that some ulterior space creatures should be hidden."

"Maybe it's because of the air conditioner. The theme of this mission is faceoff. Damn it, does anyone know what it means?" asked the young man with wind ability.

"I heard about it," said a calmer player. "It was when ordinary people were discussing, I overheard, what special effect makeup is it? What is it?"

"do not know."

"I do not know!"

"How do I know what the hell it is!"

The faces of the supernatural beings also showed a little apprehension at this time. The mission this time is different. Not only does it not have a detailed background introduction, but there is also no clearance mission.

And the most important thing is that there is no division of mission levels, that is, the players in this mission are all different levels.

They have never encountered such a strange task, and they are deeply afraid of that weird system, and they feel a little tricky when facing such an unknown task.

"It doesn't matter, let's take one step at a time. After all, we are also supernatural beings, so we must unite." The calm-looking player patted the shoulder of the wind-type supernatural being, and said in relief.

Just as everyone was thinking about it, Mr. K came to the center of the room. As soon as he appeared, the original noisy sound disappeared immediately.

"Okay, everyone is welcome to the most important competition venue. Please read the brochure carefully again, and don't forget the rules of our competition." Mr. K was still wearing white gloves.

Zhou Yan looked down at the leaflet, and there was a description about the props room on it: [4. In addition to the dormitory, the rooms that players can go to are the material room and the props room. Of course, these two places will be locked at night .

If you stray into either of these rooms during the night, take off your breastplate and stand facing the wall until dawn.Note, if there are any sounds or unwarranted stares, please ignore them. 】

This weird rule made Zhou Yan frowned. What kind of weirdness is contained here?

Mr. K stopped the noise with a slight wave of his hand, and he said to all the players present: "Next, we are about to conduct a pre-match challenge. If you stand out in the pre-match challenge, the winner will be exempted , which means that in the official competition, he will not be eliminated."

As soon as this remark came out, all the players couldn't help but feel refreshed. Immunity is equivalent to a gold medal from death, which is too important for the competition.

"In addition, our first official match is in the form of a team, that is to say, you two will form a team to fight against other teams. Please choose your teammates after the challenge."

Seeing that someone wanted to ask a question again, Mr. K forced a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to Nan Feng: "I know, many of you want to know the content of the faceoff competition, and I don't want to keep it secret, please come to your respective blanks on the workbench."

Zhou Yan and two other familiar special effects artists chose a workbench in a corner.

"Okay, everyone has found their place," Mr. K clapped his palms, as if summoning a gluttonous feast, and said in a high-pitched and excited voice, "welcome your models next."

model?

Zhou Yan was taken aback for a moment, they had never seen anyone else before they came, where is the model?

Just when everyone was unaware, a dark square hole suddenly fell on the blank desktop, and with the sound of the machine being pulled, a clear human face appeared on everyone's workbench.

Immediately, the sound of breathing in and out mixed with shouting and cursing resounded in the crowd, and even Zhou Yan couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

The face that emerged from under the table was clearly his own!

It was his very familiar face, with his eyes tightly closed, as if his head had been cut off, he was quietly clamped on the workbench by a tool.

The human face was sculpted so vividly that it seemed as if it would wake up in the next second.

Zhou Yan forcibly suppressed his pounding heartbeat, and reached out to stroke the model that was exactly like himself.

It is the familiar feel of plaster.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up at the other two companions, who were also relieved like Zhou Yan at this time.

It seems that the organizers of this competition have investigated the data on their faces before coming, so that they will use their own faces for special effects makeup.

It was also the first time for Zhou Yan to put on makeup for himself. After getting rid of the lingering feeling of weirdness in his heart, he still couldn't hide his excitement.

"Okay, say hello to your models who are about to have a perfect time, and then I will announce the theme of this pre-competition challenge-creating a monster that resists magma."

A monster that resists magma?

As a special effects artist with a keen sense, Zhou Yan's mind immediately appeared hot and slowly flowing magma, and a humanoid monster crawling out of the magma.

This is the instinctive reaction of senior special effects artists. Every time they hear Party A's proposition, they immediately have a design plan in their minds.

"Oh, it's so simple!" Yuan Yu finally couldn't help but say something, he shook off the cold sweat from his head, and said, "It's just pediatrics."

But Shi Lingxue, who is good at silicone makeup, frowned tightly. She has a specialization in art, and she hasn't been in touch with monster production for a long time. This proposition is a bit difficult for her.

"Hey! Host, wait a minute, didn't you say on the flyer that you can ask you any questions?"

Finally someone couldn't hold back anymore, he hurriedly rushed to Mr. K, held up a leaflet, and said, "What is the meaning of making a monster?"

Mr. K was not annoyed by his slightly rude attitude, smiled gracefully, and said, "literally."

The moment he bowed slightly, a translucent icicle pierced his unaware back silently.

The author says:

I have to work overtime on weekends, so maybe 6 days a week, I love you all;

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
