Chapter 622: Acting material (added sixth update for the leader of the wide-brimmed bowler hat)

Sylvia looked at the young girl in front of her, both shocked and astonished. She had thought that her knowledge was shallow and she couldn’t recognize other people’s Pets, and she had also thought that the other party’s Pet was too rare and uncommon on the market, which was why she couldn’t recognize it. But she had never imagined that neither the Pet nor the young girl herself were from Super Dormant Star.

“I have a request,” the director said. “Could you let your Pet make a cameo appearance for me?”

This… Qiao Sang was momentarily in a difficult position.

She didn’t want to agree.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want Ya to experience it, but the college entrance examination was coming soon, and she really couldn’t spare the time for a cameo role.

But what if she didn’t agree, and the other party got angry and didn’t help?

The director was, after all, a director, and he was very good at observing people. He saw Qiao Sang’s hesitation and added,

“This role has very few scenes, only two. If you’re in a hurry, I can start filming right now! I guarantee it will be over within an hour. After filming, in addition to the Dream Projection I promised you, I can also give you a certain amount of remuneration.”

After speaking, he looked at Qiao Sang with anticipation, waiting for her answer.

The assistant director beside him also looked expectant. He knew which role the director was talking about as soon as he heard it.

In fact, a Pet had already been found for this role, but this Pet from Blue Star was clearly more suitable for the role.

Two scenes, can be filmed within an hour… It’s not impossible… Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief and asked,

“What kind of role is it?”

“Ya!”

Ya wagged its tail, showing an eager expression.

Although it usually watched competitions, Xiao Xunbao often watched various TV series and movies. As soon as it thought that it could also be like a certain character on TV who could wipe out enemies with a single fire blast upon appearance, it felt that playing such a majestic role was quite good.

The director laughed:

“It plays a Pet that amazes the protagonist upon its first appearance. The protagonist, before becoming a Yu Beast Master, accidentally saw this Pet once and remembered it in his mind. After returning, he looked through various materials but couldn’t find any information about this Pet. The first scene is just a brief appearance for the first meeting.”

“What about the second scene?” Qiao Sang asked.

The director coughed: “The second scene is when the protagonist encounters this Pet again. At that stage, the protagonist is already a B-level Beast Tamer, but he has always kept an empty contract page, wanting to contract this Pet he met when he was young. However, when he meets it again, the protagonist sees this Pet being defeated in a battle with a wild Pet. The protagonist thinks this Pet is too weak, so he gives up the idea of contracting it and turns to contract another Pet.”

“Ya!”

Upon hearing this, Ya’s tail drooped, and it let out a dissatisfied cry, indicating that it would not play such a weak role.

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Xun!”

Before Qiao Sang could tactfully translate Ya’s meaning, the invisible Xiao Xunbao appeared, excitedly raising its paw and recommending itself.

Big Brother Ya doesn’t like acting, but it can!

The director was startled by the sudden appearance of the Ghost-type Pet, but his rich experience quickly calmed him down.

“Is this your Pet?” The director asked, noticing the identity bracelet on the Ghost-type’s body.

Qiao Sang hummed in affirmation.

“Is it also from Blue Star?” the director asked again.

“Yes,” Qiao Sang nodded.

The director’s eyes immediately lit up, and he carefully examined this Pet, which he had also never seen before.

At this moment, Qiao Sang said,

“Director, can my Ghost Ring Spirit play the role instead? It’s more interested in acting.”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao nodded.

That’s right, that’s right.

The director was stunned for a moment, then immediately decided: “Okay!”

Although the one in front of him was a Ghost-type Pet, it was clearly considered the most attractive among Ghost-type Pets. The main characteristic of this role was its rarity; it was usually impossible to encounter it, otherwise the protagonist wouldn’t have seen it again only after becoming a B-level Beast Tamer.

For them, people from Super Dormant Star, wasn’t it true that they usually didn’t get to see Pets from Blue Star?

“Xun~”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xunbao happily floated around in a circle.

Then it thought of something, looked at the director, and showed a curious expression.

“Xun?”

When will it be broadcast after filming, and when can it see itself on TV?

Qiao Sang suppressed a smile and translated simultaneously.

The director pondered for a moment and said,

“If there are no surprises, it should be in half a year. Aren’t you and Sylvia friends? She will definitely notify you when it’s released.”

“Of course I will,” Sylvia said with a smile.

It seems I need to add a contact method with the quest giver later… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

After confirming the cast, the director eagerly started filming.

The first shot was very simple and didn’t require much acting skill. Xiao Xunbao just needed to float past the actor playing the protagonist, then turn its head to show its front face.

“Action!” the director commanded.

Xiao Xunbao floated leisurely forward, and as it passed the actor playing the protagonist, it slowly turned its head, gave a flirtatious wink, and then turned to leave.

Just turn your head, why did you have to wink… Qiao Sang silently covered her face when she saw this scene, feeling like she couldn’t bear to watch.

Unexpectedly, the director excitedly shouted: “Excellent!”

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Ya…”

Ya breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn’t asked to act; it couldn’t act like that…

The first scene was a single take, and the second scene was a fight.

The battle was naturally a fake one. Xiao Xunbao hadn’t watched so many TV dramas for nothing. It was very naturally hit by the opponent’s Fly Leaf Knife and fell to the ground.

Then it saw the protagonist.

“Xun…”

Xiao Xunbao lay on the ground, trembling as it stretched out its paw towards the protagonist. Before the protagonist could get close, it closed its eyes, and its paw completely slid onto the ground.

“Fantastic!” The director clapped vigorously, praising: “The acting was absolutely brilliant!”

The actor playing the protagonist quietly stepped aside; he knew that this was not addressed to him.

“Xun~”

Xiao Xunbao got up and floated to its Yu Beast Master’s side, showing a smug expression of “it was just average.”

The director looked at Qiao Sang and praised,

“Your Ghost Ring Spirit is simply a born actor!”

It’s also good at studying… Qiao Sang smiled and said, “It usually likes to watch TV shows and movies.”

“Liking to watch shows and acting are not the same thing,” the director said cheerfully. “A Pet without talent can watch as many shows as it wants and still not act well. Alright, let’s go. Aren’t you still waiting for the Dream Projection?”

Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up.

Finally, this moment has arrived!

The two arrived at a spacious, empty office.

Sylvia followed along.

Qiao Sang placed Ya on the ground.

Then she turned to Xiao Xunbao and said seriously, “Take out the dream enlightenment stone.”

“Xun~”

Xiao Xunbao chirped, indicating understanding, then took off its ring and fumbled inside.

In a moment, it took out a square blue box.

“Ya…”

Ya was both nervous and excited at this moment.

It knew the importance of this item.

Its Yu Beast Master had worked so hard to earn points before, all for it.

PS: Ah! After a year! I’ve finally paid back what I owed to the first Alliance Leader!!!
