Chapter 1029 The Returned Person

Roland was not surprised at all by the strong response and sensation caused by the demonic shadow.

In fact, on the night when the filming was completed, as the producer and the first audience, he was also shocked when he admired this experimental and epoch-making work in the castle hall.

The visual impact brought by the virtual illusion cannot be described in a few words.

Now that I think about it, I haven't had such a strong feeling in the reflection church in the old holy city. This is just because most of the meetings and celebrations recorded by the sigil are static images. Although they are extremely novel, they have limited stimulation to the senses. Once it is switched to dynamic recording, its real and compelling characteristics can be brought into full play. For example, when falling from a high altitude, even if it is clearly known to be fake, the brain will still be deceived by the eyes.

Even he is like this, let alone the general public whose appreciation level is still at the stage of stage plays.

The success of the Phantom has long been expected.

However, there were some things that were beyond Roland's expectations.

That means the effect of the magic shadow is a bit too good.

During the third and fifth performances, audience members fled and fainted. The former almost caused a stampede, and the latter was rushed to the medical hospital. If Nana was not there to take charge, the disaster would have been worse.

The above situations all happened before Echo's singing started.

Obviously, the opening bird's-eye view and the awakening of the eldest princess into a wolf are high-risk areas for problems.

This is still a high-priced event for the rich, and the audience’s breadth of knowledge and reception ability are much higher than that of ordinary people. If it is the turn of the low-priced event a week later, I am afraid the situation will only be more serious.

Realizing this, Roland had to revise the broadcast plan.

Originally, he planned to obtain more seats by changing the seats - for example, if the lounge chairs in the high-priced venue were replaced with benches, the number of viewers could be doubled immediately. This is because affordable venues do not allow bringing in food and drinks. reason. But if he wanted to prevent trampling, a bench that would fall down when pushed was obviously not suitable. In the end, he replaced it with an iron bench that could be fixed on the ground, and required the audience to wear a fixed belt before the performance to avoid disaster. .

In addition, he has also imposed restrictions on the age and physical condition of moviegoers. People over 45 years old, or those with a history of fear of heights, heart palpitations, etc. will not be allowed to watch "Wolf Heart".

After all, Phantom is a new thing for him. Whether it is the design of the new theater or the movie viewing regulations, he has to start from scratch.

With the enthusiasm of the demon shadow, the gadgets given as gifts also attracted the attention of many people.

In the past few days, the city hall has received trade applications from more than a dozen businessmen, all of whom came for popcorn and milk packaging bags, hoping to win a franchise opportunity. However, after listening to Barov's report, Roland rejected all their requests.

After all, puffed foods like popcorn are difficult to preserve, and there is no technical difficulty in them. Profitability is slim if you source your own supply, and it is easy to be copied if you provide technology for joint sales. In addition, Neverwinter is not a major corn producing area, so it does not have any advantage in competition, so it is better to hold it in your hands and use it as a sweetener to attract the outside population.

As for the packaging bags, there is no surplus left for sale.

It is one of the first achievements of the "rubber bug" breeding industry.

After nearly a year of cultivation, these bugs have basically settled in the Third Border City, and the ancient witch has also made considerable progress in its research work - since it was discovered that by regulating the ratio of bug mucus and organ secretions Once biocolloids with different degrees of flexibility were obtained, the research content quickly became clear.

Synthesizing samples of different components and then testing their corrosion resistance, wear resistance and other properties has become a side job for the Taqila survivors.

This is where liquid packaging bags and straws come from.

Making these two things is not Roland's whim. It is also of great significance to the logistics support of the army. Whether it is to contain food or disinfectant water, soft plastic bags can be used for great purposes, not to mention that compared to metal or glass containers, It is much cheaper to build and consumes almost no additional resources other than bugs.

Although the Third Border City has dug several new caves for raising rubber worms, and their number has increased from more than a hundred at the beginning to nearly a thousand now, they are still far from being able to meet the needs of the war. Therefore, it can be foreseen that it will be one of Neverwinter's strategic resources for a long time.

…

On the fourth day after The Shadow was released, Roland received news that Edith, the Pearl of the North, had returned to Neverwinter with Livia.

He met the woman he had met once again in the castle parlor.

The other party looked a little nervous, but did not avoid his gaze. There was a vague sense of resignation in his eyes.

Different from the last night encounter, in the well-lit hall, Roland saw her appearance more clearly - her delicate facial features and thin body made her like a flower that could not bear the wind and frost, and the long voyage brought her The fatigue and weakness that came with him made this weakness even deeper. But the inner unyieldingness was supporting her, preventing her from truly falling down. This contrast adds a beauty to her, making people either can't help but care for her, or want to possess her and destroy her. If it fell into the hands of other lords, there would be no more than these two consequences.

She seemed to be ready for this.

Roland couldn't help but laugh. Although the aristocratic circles in this era were indeed chaotic, he had no such thoughts.

"Don't worry," he said pleasantly, "it's much warmer here than Hanfeng Ridge, and no one will disturb your life. After staying for a while, you will like this city."

"Yes... Your Majesty." She hesitated for a moment, then bowed her head deeply.

"Then you go and rest first. Someone will arrange your accommodation." Roland gestured.

After Livya was taken away by her personal guards, Edith knelt down and said, "Is this the end? I thought you would chat with her a little more to get acquainted with her."

"You should have said everything you want to say, and I have nothing to add." Roland shrugged, pretending not to hear the meaning of the word emotion, "How is it? Did the trip go well?"

"Of course, she made a decisive choice in front of her children." Edith replied, "The finishing work took a little longer than expected, but those people will never cause you any more trouble."

"Well done," he nodded. "Leaving it to you is indeed the right choice."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty," Northland Pearl smiled. "In addition, I have one more thing to report - on the way back, I received a message from the engineering team. Akima failed to find the "Sun" in the east. "The Glory" has already turned towards the north. "

Sure enough... does that extension line come from the opposite side of the Whirlpool Sea? Roland frowned slightly. If the mine could only go north, it would be okay if the mine was in Graycastle, but it would be more difficult if it were in other kingdoms.

"I understand," but he quickly regained his composure, "You should also go down and rest."

"yes."

When she reached the door, Edith suddenly turned around and said, "You too - Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

"Oh?" Roland looked at her in surprise.

"Without you, this world would be a lot less interesting." She smiled slightly and disappeared behind the hall door.
