Chapter 94 Special Mission: The Dragon Slayer Will Eventually Become a Dragon

Friday.

It was the fourth day since Chen Baiyu completed her job change mission.

morning.

He quickly went through the newly added dubbing content with Teacher Li, still working with great efficiency.

in the afternoon.

They then went to the vicinity of Xiufeng Waterfall to complete the final scene of the Eldrin movie with the crew.

Xiufeng is a mountain peak located on the southern side of the Lushan mountain range.

The waterfall that Li Bai saw is here, not the Three-Tiered Spring Waterfall in Lushan.

At this moment, Chen Baiyu is performing various actions under the director's instructions at the bottom of Xiufeng Waterfall.

Today's scene is a large-scale dragon-slaying scene, which basically requires post-production special effects; it's impossible to actually create a dragon on set.

Now he can only use various special props and perform a show that is essentially a performance without any props, together with a stuntman dressed in a special sensory device to play the role of a dragon.

What he held in his hand was not a real sword or staff, but a plastic rod painted with blue markings, which was a reference for later synthesis.

The stuntman in front of us is covered in a gray bodysuit full of sensors and wears a helmet-like motion capture device on his head. He is imitating the posture of a dragon, sometimes crouching and sometimes leaping.

The director yelled "Action!"

Chen Baiyu immediately got into the zone.

He turned to the side and swung his "cane".

His gaze was fixed intently on the air in front of him.

There, on the future silver screen, will be a giant dragon with shimmering scales.

The stuntman lunged forward, and Chen Baiyu jumped backward, splashing water at his feet.

He must accurately judge the opponent's movement path and approximate size after the special effects are combined in order for the subsequent special effects team to seamlessly integrate the dragon's movements with his reactions.

Watch your expression! A dragon's breath is on you!

The director gave a reminder from a short distance away.

Chen Baiyu immediately frowned and squinted, as if a wave of heat was really hitting her face.

His arm trembled slightly, and the tip of his cane drew an arc in the air.

This angle was specified by the special effects artist.

It makes the wind magic gushing out from the tip of the "staff" appear even more powerful.

The sounds of water, shouts, and the beeping of motion capture equipment mingled together.

This dragon-slaying scene, devoid of any physical form, requires him to be even more focused than when facing a real enemy.

The waterfall's mist refracted a faint rainbow in the sunlight, but Chen Baiyu had no time to appreciate it.

He acted as if he was breathing rapidly.

After all, this is a battle to slay a dragon!
The director's voice came again: "In ten seconds, the dragon's wings will flap at you, get ready to roll!"

Chen Baiyu gritted her teeth, staring intently at the motion capture actor in front of her. The man suddenly spread his arms wide, mimicking the motion of a dragon spreading its wings and swooping down.

At that moment.

Chen Baiyu suddenly rolled to the left.

"Final blow!"

At the same time, the director practically shouted it out.

Chen Baiyu gripped the "cane" tightly with both hands and pushed off the ground with both feet.

He immediately shot towards the "dragon" like an arrow released from a bow.

Although I can do it myself.

However, he did not deliberately flaunt it by not using wires.

Instead, he leaped high into the air using the wire.

The body is pulled and spun half a circle in the air by wires, and the plastic rod in the hand makes a sword-drawing motion, slashing at the red marker on the motion capture actor's chest.

At this moment.

In future special effects compositing.

It was after a fierce magical battle that Eldrin drew the sword from his staff the instant he approached the dragon, and with a magically infused strike, ended the fight.

Dragon slaying, success!
"Card--!"

The director's excited voice rang out from afar.

This afternoon, the third motion capture actor took off his helmet, covered in sweat, and gave Chen Baiyu a thumbs up.

They were clearly amazed by Chen Baiyu's physical strength and coordination.

In this afternoon's scene, the ones who often couldn't keep up with the pace and had to do multiple takes were actually these self-proclaimed professional stunt and motion capture actors.

The third motion capture actor walked up to Chen Baiyu, panting heavily, his face filled with undisguised admiration.

"Dude, your reaction speed is too fast!" He exclaimed while wiping his sweat with a towel. "Just now, when you rolled to the left, I hadn't even fully extended my arms before you were already in position."

Chen Baiyu smiled and handed the plastic rod to the props team: "I've been observing your movements. You'll get used to it."

"Habit?"

“We deal with motion capture every day, and we wouldn’t dare say we’re used to the director’s impromptu commands. But you, you’ve done it in one take more times than any of us.”

Another stunt performer who had come offstage earlier also came over and spoke earnestly.

At this point, the motion capture actors exchanged glances.

all laughed.

One of them patted Chen Baiyu on the shoulder: "Well, I've seen it all today. No wonder the director specifically asked you to play Eldrin."

Chen Baiyu simply smiled and turned her gaze back to the waterfall not far away.

Sunlight pierced through the mist, casting a brief but brilliant light in his eyes, just like the image of his successful dragon slaying, frozen in time.

He knew the script inside and out, and understood.

The filming of the story is basically finished at this point.

That should be about the end of the job change quest.

The reward is just around the corner.

"very good!"

"This one is finally approved!"

The director nodded in satisfaction.

Compared to yesterday's long series that ended in a flash, today's episode really took almost the entire afternoon.

After all, it involves many factors such as motion capture and performance without props.

Fortunately, it was over in the end. And even though it took an entire afternoon, it was still considered incredibly fast.

After filming this scene.

It was already past five in the afternoon.

Although they could continue filming for a while, the gradually darkening sky made Hong Lingfeng give up the idea and quickly direct everyone to pack up and go down the mountain.

Everyone quickly packed their things.

Fearing that the valuable items might not be processed in time, Director Hong Lingfeng called in some people to expedite the process.

Once everything is packed.

When everyone arrived at the guesthouse not far from the foot of Xiufeng Mountain, as arranged by the film crew.

It was almost seven o'clock.

Night fell.

In addition, the sky was overcast, as if it were brewing a long-awaited release.

As soon as I stepped into the guesthouse, a rumble of thunder rolled in from afar, followed by a torrential downpour that pounded against the eaves.

Hong Lingfeng clapped his hands with a smile: "Anyway, the filming is almost finished, so let's celebrate in advance. The wrap party starts now!"

The lobby of the guesthouse instantly became lively, with long tables filled with beer, snacks, and local delicacies.

Everyone sat together, their laughter, clinking glasses, and the sound of rain blending together.

Chen Baiyu sat in the corner with a bottle of chilled beer in front of her.

Someone egged him on: "Brother Chen, how's your alcohol tolerance?"

He just smiled faintly, tilted his head back, and took a big gulp.

The icy liquid slid down his throat without stopping.

Although he doesn't like drinking, he wouldn't mind having a little in this situation, and besides, he also wanted to test his current alcohol tolerance.

After several rounds of drinks...

Many people were already blushing, and some even fell asleep on the table.

Chen Baiyu remained calm and occasionally chatted with the director about filming details.

"Your alcohol tolerance is monstrous."

"We have to get up early tomorrow to finish up, so don't drink us all under the table."

Hong Lingfeng gave a thumbs up and said.

"Don't worry, I'm still perfectly sober."

Chen Baiyu responded with a smile.

His alcohol tolerance has become abnormally high.

Just by drinking the beer in front of him, he felt as if he could drink as much as he wanted without getting drunk.

The drinking and toasting continued at the dinner table.

Eleven o'clock at night.

The torrential rain finally stopped.

The guesthouse was filled with the sounds of snoring, but Chen Baiyu was wide awake.

The joy of nearing the completion of the mission, coupled with his already robust physique that didn't require much rest, kept him mentally sharp.

He put on his coat.

She gently pushed open the door and went out.

The air was exceptionally fresh after the rain, the streets were washed clean, and the lights cast long shadows on the wet ground.

The Airbnb the director booked was in a good location.

Standing on the street, you can see Xiufeng Waterfall faintly visible in the night.

The roar of the surging water echoed through the valley, its magnificent power breathtaking.

Standing at the street corner, gazing at the curtain of water descending from the sky, he couldn't help but recall the poem Li Bai wrote specifically for this place:

Fei Liu went straight down to 3000 feet, and it was suspected that the Milky Way fell for nine days.

"Sure enough, it's no different from what's described in the poem."

Chen Baiyu murmured softly, a sense of indescribable peace and contentment welling up in her heart.

The scenery is indeed beautiful.

At least after the rain, the stream was no longer the trickle we saw during filming; the water volume appeared to have increased significantly.

If the mountain weren't high enough, it's hard to say whether it would have been enclosed by a wall to prevent outsiders from seeing it.

He stood on the street at night, gazing quietly at the beautiful scenery in the distance, lost in thought.

The mission should be nearing its end now. He has read the script, and all the scenes are almost finished. They will probably announce the wrap-up tomorrow.

And so began his epic adventure.

That's about it...

My thoughts haven't stopped.

The system emitted a sound.

[Mission Background: It died. But its death itself became the opening chapter of a new era, more magnificent, more violent, and more imbued with primal magic. Pierced through the chest by a greatsword, every breath was filled with molten gold-like blood gushing from the wound, forming a scorching, boiling spring, exuding the scent of sulfur and starlight—not flowing, but surging, roaring, a magnificent and awe-inspiring waterfall of blood cascading from the heavens!]

hiss……

Facing it head-on...

Dragon Blood Waterfall...

Chen Baiyu looked at the task that suddenly appeared, glanced at the waterfall plunging down the cliff in the distance, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He was pleased that the system had acknowledged his dragon-slaying act in Xiufeng as Eldrin.

But the problem is...

Looking at the waterfall, which had increased in volume due to the rain, Chen Baiyu subconsciously felt a sense of doubt:
Should we just tough it out?
Me?
