Section 121: Renamed "The Fall of the Mage Tower"

"So what exactly do you mean by 'stage play'?"

Mage Michael urged impatiently, while the genuine warrior Bronze Beard waited patiently.

"Almost."

Annan glanced out the window at the lawn in the sunlight and opened the door.

Disheveled, with red cheeks, Abby ran down the corridor with the Philosopher's Stone in her hand, and Annan took it and returned to her study.

Michael stopped Annan as he prepared to activate the Philosopher's Stone.

"You really want to be in ......" Michael looked around at the others in the study, with a strange expression, "put your ...... in front of our people" That kind of thing? ”

Annan: "What? ”

His reaction made Michael stunned: "What? ”

Annan looked down at the philosopher's stone that Michael was holding down, understood something, and his eyes gradually narrowed: "What do all the mages do with recording the philosopher's stone......"

"It's nothing to do with the mage!" Michael raised his voice and retorted: "Those nobles like to record that kind of thing!" ”

"Do you have such a thing?"

"Yes."

The Wine Lady, the dwarf, and Annan looked at him with disdain.

Annan took Michael's hand away and placed the Philosopher's Stone on the desk: "This is the vehicle that carries this story." I call it ......"

Annan wanted to say that this was a movie, but the Philosopher's Stone had nothing to do with electricity. Shadow? Sounds like something from the evil camp......

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Magical Image. ”

With that, Annan activated the Philosopher's Stone of Recording.

The shaky image is projected on top of the Philosopher's Stone, and the distant fence and streetscape in the picture make them recognize it as the grass outside.

Whoop -

Annan pulled up the curtains, and the dark study made the images clear and vivid. He watched as Deella and Michael stood or sat staring at the magical image, slightly distracted by the atmosphere.

A hesitant voiceover came from the Philosopher's Stone: "Do I really want to read it?" ”

"That's right, follow the steps."

The girl read the narration in a slightly trembling voice:

"On a bright midsummer morning, everything revives...... The bug woke up early and climbed up the blades of grass to start the day's meal, unbeknownst to it, a predator had set its sights on itβ€”"

A familiar glass vial containing a spider appears in the magical image, and the worm falls into it.

"Keep reading ......"

Annan's whispered reminder was heard in the video.

The girl's narration continued: "The spider caught the cunning bug and was able to feed itself. And the bugs have also paid the lesson of their lives - that is, don't get up so early. ”

The image swayed and rose into the sky, and a hand wearing three magic rings grasped a piece of paper with scribbled handwriting, slowly occupying the image:

Schedule

Director & Screenwriter:

Annan

Aside:

Abby

Actor:

Spider – Spider

Bugs – bugs

Cameo:

Soruman Copperbeard

Dela

Annan quietly held his forehead at this time, why didn't he feel so stupid when he did it at that time......

Fortunately, everyone didn't care, and Soruman Copperbeard couldn't wait to ask, "I'm here too?" Where am I?! ”

Unable to pause or rewind the recording of the Philosopher's Stone, Annan had to replay it, then point to a moving mass of thick brown hair emerging from the base of the guardrail in the distance as the narrator reads "Bugs that fell into the cobwebs".

When the dwarves are angry, their beards are fluffy like the hair of hedgehogs.

Then, by the way, Annan pointed to the corner of the wall in the image when he was "satisfied"β€”Deira leaning lazily in the shadows where the sun could not shine.

The Philosopher's Stone is the natural enemy of Della and other blinded assassins.

Turning off the Philosopher's Stone, which was used less than once at a time, Annan asked their opinion: "What do you think?" ”

"Innocence."

"It's kind of funny."

"Novelty."

"I don't know."

"Great!"

Annan continued: "As a child, do you like to listen to dry stories or watch such funny magical images? As an audience member, would you rather watch actors with indiscernible faces on a distant stage work in a humble setting, or a vivid environment with clear and bright details? ”

Soluman Brass was combing his beard, Deira was in a daze, Francois and Michael were contemplating, and the Wine Lady was the first to realize what Annan was trying to say:

"You want to make this story a magical image?"

Annan tilted his head slightly.

Michael wanted to say it was a genius idea. A scene of spiders hunting for food with narration is interesting to him, so what about presenting a complete story?

Why didn't anyone think of this?

As for the Philosopher's Stone, which was often used to teach alchemy, the nobles who used it to record their affairs never observed it.

But the wisdom of the mage made him quickly think of the changes brought about by this kind of thing, and looked at Annan's gaze with complicated feelings: "You just ruined the spinning industry, making the price of cotton almost more expensive than cotton yarn, and the hair of a sheep is worth more than its meat, and now you want to ruin the theater?" ”

Francois stepped forward to ease the mood: "That's not what Michael meant, he wanted to say uh...... Your idea leaves many people unprepared. ”

"I'm not denying him, you can always trust the open-mindedness of a mage, we are not stubborn dwarves." Michael sighed, "I just ...... Seeing something strange, but that will change the things around us, was born. ”

Soruman Copperbeard fought back mercilessly: "So you're a mage? I always thought you were a barbarian. ”

"The theater will not be destroyed...... At most, it is forced to change, like a spinning machine. Annan said, holding the Philosopher's Stone.

The spinning machine has made many people unemployed, many people rich, many people cry, and many people laugh. But magic images aren't the kind of industry that replaces human labor. The theater can be converted into a ...... that plays magical images Cinema and theatrical actors can also be actors of magical images.

So, the topic naturally came to the role assignment link.

But before that, Annan had one more important thing to discuss with them: the name of the work.

The background of the story has changed, and "Titan Winchert" obviously has to change its name.

"I'll propose the Mage Tower first." Annan said.

"But if it lacks a sense of shock, why don't you call it "The Fall of the Mage Tower in Breeze City"?" Francois said.

"Good, now they have one more person to beat."

"Then 'The Fall of the Mage Tower'."

The name was decided, and the next step was the actor. Lady Wine says that as a novelty, the role of "The Fall of the Mage's Tower" is best not to be played by someone casually.

It's not enough to be good and new enough to circulate magical images, young people may like to be exposed to new things, but stubborn old people won't even accept the sunflower turning in the garden.

Therefore, the main role should be played by those who have the power to play it, and there is no reason for them to give up the title of "the first magic image" to outsiders.

First of all, the male lead.
