Those who reincarnate must die.

Chapter 280 Sunset Fortress

By evening, Zhang Lang felt nauseous after eating and decided to rest. (Google search reading)

He definitely can't go back to school for the time being. Although his social circle is small, he's become quite a well-known figure at school these days because of that "streaking" incident. If people notice that his physical appearance has changed too much, it will be very troublesome...

But outside of school, the only option is to stay in a guesthouse... oh, this world should be called a hotel...

Zhang Lang called General Manager Liu of the boxing gym to say he couldn't go for the next few days, and also sent a message to Cheng Jun asking for a few days off. Anyway, today is Friday, and he has no classes tomorrow or the day after. In two or three days, he should be able to get back in shape...

Having arranged everything, Zhang Lang was about to leave the mall when Xu suddenly said in his mind, "Since we still have time, why don't we go see a movie..."

"Movies?" Zhang Lang was taken aback. His hometown probably didn't have this kind of thing, but having experienced so many worlds, he had heard of it and knew roughly what it was. However, in his memory, he only thought of it as something like video recordings, and he wasn't particularly interested in it.

"You want to see it?"

"It's not a matter of whether I want to see it or not!" Xu chuckled. "Go take a look; you might find something unexpected!"

"An unexpected gain?" Zhang Lang frowned, wondering if the matter he was focusing on was related to the altar.

"Okay!" He glanced at the floor guide; the movie theater was on the fourth floor, so he went up to the theater entrance.

The place is covered with posters for various newly released movies, and trailers are playing on a large screen. The timetable also displays the screening schedules for each theater...

Zhang Lang's eyes swept over the posters, selecting movies that interested him.

"Azure Love"... seems to be a love story?

Trio of Pranks...a comedy...is it a humorous story that makes people laugh?

"Special Agent"...an action movie...judging from the people in it all having guns, it must be a combat film...

Sunset Fortress... The poster has lots of insects and ancient soldiers in armor...

Wait a minute... Sunset Fortress?!

Zhang Lang examined the poster closely. The main figure was a tall, handsome man wielding a long sword, next to him a woman in golden armor, with a sword at her waist and a large spear in her hand! In the background, there were all sorts of terrifying insects…

That broadsword was clearly meant for slaughter; the woman's attire was exactly the same as Feng Xi's; and the insects were none other than the most numerous mantis monsters! Although their appearances were different, the male and female protagonists should be him and Feng Xi.

"So, are you interested?" the virtual voice urged in Zhang Lang's mind. "Go check it out!"

Zhang Lang squinted, walked to the ticket window, bought a ticket for the next showing of "Sunset Fortress," and followed the staff's directions into the screening room...

The movie is very long, a full two and a half hours...

Starting with General Yuan's defeat and death, the protagonist, a skilled hunter who calls himself a hunter, escorts the general's former troops south to Sunset Fortress for refuge. As the Zerg army advances, the protagonist saves the female lead, Feng Xi, at a crucial moment, gaining her trust. Then, General Yuan's former troops provide the gunpowder formula, initiating a counterattack. The climax unfolds along two parallel storylines: the protagonist bravely ventures into the Zerg hive alone, only to be rescued by Feng Xi at a critical moment, and the two fight the Zerg king together. Meanwhile, at the fortress, the bridge is destroyed, and the protagonist sacrifices himself to save the people of Jiangnan, a tragic and heroic act!

The entire story is clearly mirroring the mission Zhang Lang just went through!

The story structure is almost identical, with only minor differences in details. For example, the characters' appearances differ from the real-world counterparts; however, the cast list at the end suggests they are actors from the real world… For instance, the actor playing the hunter, while similar in height to Zhang Lang, is noticeably taller and more slender, and quite handsome…

Furthermore, the protagonist's strength displayed in the film is significantly weaker compared to Zhang Lang's. After all, Zhang Lang's power is far beyond what the others in that mission possessed. Where did such immense power come from? The script's explanation of innate superhuman strength simply doesn't hold water, so the film's portrayal had to be weakened, necessitating changes to many details.

Including the final battle against the Insect King, the number of Insect Kings was reduced from four to one, and it wasn't that the protagonist could defeat it with a single punch. Instead, the protagonist and Feng Xi teamed up to fight the Insect King. In the end, Feng Xi sacrificed himself to block the Insect King's attack, which gave the protagonist the opportunity to use the sword technique "Golden Snake Treasure Hunt" that Feng Xi had taught him to kill the villain. In terms of drama, this kind of intense battle has more of the feel of a final showdown!

But Feng Xi's final kiss lingered, only it wasn't on the lips, but on the cheek...

Although it was different from what he remembered, tears still welled up in Zhang Lang's eyes when he saw this scene...

He thought again of that innocent, kind girl who had prematurely shouldered the heavy responsibility of her family and country, and the survival of humanity…

Even after the movie ended, Zhang Lang was still unable to calm down. Only when the staff urged him to leave did he rub his eyes and finally get up to leave...

"What exactly happened?" Zhang Lang wondered to himself as he left the screening room.

"As you can see!" The altar has filmed your experience and is showing it!

"How is this possible?" Although it was Zhang Lang's first time watching a movie, he knew that it required a lot of effort and many people to make it. He had only returned to the main world today, so how could there be a movie that very night?

"Could it be a fake movie created out of thin air by the altar?"

"It's true!" he chuckled. "If you don't believe me, you can check online. The main actors are all top stars from ASEAN! They really are real people!"

"What's going on?" Zhang Lang was frowning when he suddenly noticed that a movie poster next to him had suddenly burst into flames!

It was a poster for "The Agents of Death and Suicide," which, as it burned, transformed into a new poster with the title "Project Falcon"!

It still has the style of a modern action movie, and even the lead actors are the same! But it's a completely different film, a completely different story!

Not only this one, but other posters were also replaced. The promotional video for "Agent X" that was playing on the big screen was gone, replaced by a video for "Project Falcon"! Even a couple who were just talking about watching "Agent X" were now discussing "Project Falcon"!

It can be said that all information about "The Agents of Death" has disappeared from theaters and even from the world, replaced by a movie that never existed before, "The Falcon Project"!

"This 'Falcon Project' must be a mission recently completed by some altar, right..." Xu chuckled. "Does it seem familiar? Does it remind you of how you replaced Zhang Lang?"

Zhang Lang understood: the altar would use the storylines experienced by the reincarnated to replace a similarly themed film that had just been released in the main world. Not only was reality distorted, but even the memories of everyone involved were altered! Even the actors believed that the film they had spent months or even years making was not "Spy Kids," but "Project Falcon"!

Is it because the altar is going to expose the tasks that the reincarnated ones are supposed to perform to everyone?

Why is that?

"I don't know..." Xu honestly replied, "Maybe it's to boost box office revenue? After all, the films made by the altar are of very high quality, especially the special effects, which are incredibly realistic!"

"The altar costs money too?"

"Who knows? Many of the altar's actions are completely illogical. Maybe the altar's inventor was a director who just wanted to indulge in a movie-making hobby!"

Will all the missions be made into movies?

"No!" Xu explained, "Only those with sufficiently intricate and interesting plots, approved by the altar, will be adapted into theatrical films. The rest, the less compelling ones, might be adapted into web movies, TV series, animations, novels, or other media to record the story and appear before the public... If it's really not interesting, we simply won't adapt it..."

"Of course, generally speaking, a complex plot precisely indicates that the reincarnator is quite active and performs well in the mission world, earning a lot of points. Especially the protagonist, who definitely reaps the greatest rewards! So, having their own mission world rewritten by the altar is something a reincarnator can be very proud of! If it's adapted into a mainstream theatrical film, even just once, they can brag about it for a lifetime!"
