In the crowd.
Mr. Reca covered his face with one hand.
But he couldn't hide the upward curve of his lips.
"Hehehe…"
"You all want to find me, don't you? You all want to know Dr. Primitive's whereabouts, right?"
"Unfortunately, I have indeed discovered some clues about Dr. Primitive!"
"However, until Yu Ling's storyline reveals this, I won't let you find him!"
"Great directors naturally don't spoil each other's scripts in advance."
Mr. Reca wore a foolish grin.
As if, in that moment, he and Yu Ling had reached an unspoken agreement!
In his heart,
Honkai: Star Rail was an unprecedented masterpiece of a film!
And its developer, Lin Yu, was undoubtedly a pinnacle figure in the world of directors!
From the moment he became aware of this work,
Mr. Reca had been deeply captivated by its content!
He had also developed a strong interest in the legendary Yu Ling!
He had once frantically searched for traces of Yu Ling.
However,
This developer was like a deity!
Only when he chose to reveal himself to the world.
No one could ever find him!
Thus,
Mr. Reca regarded Yu Ling as a master of the art of directing.
A senior who hid his achievements and fame!
Others are far from being able to match his level!
Every time a new version is released,
Mr. Reca always watches the storyline at the first opportunity!
To better experience it from the player's perspective,
he even deliberately mingled among ordinary players!
Unexpectedly,
this time,
he, the "great director," also appeared as an actor in the storyline!
It is an honor,
And also a response!
One could say,
Mr. Reca has become one of the most fervent Yu Ling fans!
After watching the on-site plot unfold,
He would later analyze every frame of the story in private...
Savoring and appreciating it all by himself.
And now,
With the plot revealing that he had once tracked Dr. Primitive's traces,
Mr. Reca not only didn't feel offended,
But instead, he admired Yu Ling even more!
"This must be part of the drama!"
"In the next version, or the one after that..."
"There's bound to be an epic storyline where the main characters unite to confront Dr. Primitive!"
"Ah! Just thinking about it makes me unable to stop, I can't wait!"
Mr. Reca kept imagining,
His facial expressions completely out of control.
The nearby players saw this,
And quickly took several steps back.
"Is this guy sick?"
"I didn't expect someone to drool while watching a plot..."
"Probably infected with a Memetic Entity virus, let's stay away from him."
To Mr. Reca,
These voices from ordinary people were just noise!
He glanced at the players,
A hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"What do you all know..."
"This is the bond between me and Yu Ling!!"
"The plot is about to enter the next stage."
"Anticipation, I'm so excited!"
The surrounding players moved even further away,
To the point where a vacuum formed around Mr. Reca!
Mr. Reca quickly composed himself.
If this continued, he might attract the Bloodhounds maintaining the scene.
It wouldn't be worth it if it affected his ability to watch the plot.
Calming himself,
He turned his gaze back to the big screen.
The current plot was still his own scene!
...
"Unfortunately, I took a risk, solely for the sake of filming an exciting movie (memory). From the very beginning, I was prepared to sacrifice myself for art, so your threats are meaningless."
Mr. Reca showed a trace of emotion,
"For the crew, starting the shoot means taking risks. A true director would never stop the camera, even if it meant adding a cross to their name in the credits."
Profnana sighed, "In the end, you're just a pitiful monkey struggling for a useless dream."
"Then prepare yourself for the sacrifice."
Mr. Reca remained silent.
As the perspective gradually widened,
Outside the street where the two were conversing,
In the grass,
The assistant director was quietly lying there,
Having witnessed everything.
It seemed,
This,
Was also part of the film!
[Switching to Boothill's On Set…]
Boothill's voice rang out.
"Yes, when I woke up, my brain told me: hatred is the weakness of all the weak."
"Only then did I realize that at least one part of my brain was still alive."
...
"Bobo Shark is finally coming!"
"I told you, how could the Galaxy Rangers make an appearance without our BTO's part?"
"Prison Bo: Hehehe, here I come~"
"A Ninja Hero who often speaks sweet words makes his entrance!"
"This damn sense of security~"
"Did Prison Bo buy something recently? He had quite a few highlights in the previous Penacony main storyline, and even had scenes when he returned to Xianzhou for the martial ceremony. Now he's back again this version."
"Looks like he's taken several orders on 'Kill Me Now,' giving Yu Ling quite a boost in funds."
...
At Paperfold University.
Boothill suddenly stood up!
His gaze was razor-sharp.
He scanned all the players indiscriminately!
He warned, "I'll say this upfront."
"I can't control what happens online or in the livestreams…"
"But you little cuties!"
"If you dare call me 'BoBo Shark,' 'BTO,' or 'Prison Bo' again…"
"Don't blame me for loving you hard!"
On the scene,
the players immediately fell silent!
Judging by Boothill's demeanor, he wasn't joking around!
Some players quickly lowered their heads.
In Little Gui's livestream, they started spamming the chat furiously and vindictively!
Offline, I'm meek; online, I'm a beast!
They were ready to flood the chat with comments whenever something funny happened in the story!
Soon.
The opportunity came.
...
"...And who are you? What kind of show is this anyway?"
"Alright, the world's full of complications, but one gunshot can simplify everything."
Boothill pulled out a pistol in one swift motion!
The members of the Slumbernana Society gathered On the Road immediately started trembling.
"You can figure it out then, banana his, today I'll teach you a lesson…"
Boothill initially wore a cold smirk.
But after saying that, he suddenly choked on his words!
He even paused, caught off guard.
"Huh…?"
"Wait, what was that just now?"
Boothill looked utterly bewildered.
He fell into deep self-doubt!
"Banana his? Why am I suddenly saying banana his?"
"Banana? I banana your baby? What the banana?"
Seeing this.
The chat exploded!
...
"His baby turned into his banana?"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…"
"Kinda cute though~"
"Boothill: Gradually bananafied."
"Don't you get it? Boothill's saying he wants to eat bananas.."
"Oh no, BTO just got hit with memetic contamination (sad)."
"Banana his, it must be the banana's fault!"
