Don't be afraid, I've truly come to bring you happiness.

The plan is simple: stall for now, and we'll deal with the rest later.

"fine."

Lin Yuanshan's voice remained relatively calm.

"At worst, I'll perform a twenty-hit combo of Thunder God's Severing Strike. I'm very familiar with that."

After all, it was he who passed on this unique skill to Chu Hua.

"Why don't you go play the drums?"

Xingge suggested,

"A beat of 'boom-boom' is bound to be correct."

"No, that would expose us right there and then!"

The fog slowly dissipated.

The two were prepared to bite the bullet and do something ridiculous, even if they were mistaken for clowns who had infiltrated to cause trouble and were kicked off the stage, just to buy themselves some time...

When the show ends, the band will blame it on the two enthusiastic fans, saying that their performance was affected by the two fans.

However, the host was relieved.

Their appearances are quite reminiscent of Zhang Wuji and the Golden Lion King!

I didn't just spout nonsense!

On stage, facing the restless audience, Lin Yuanshan was about to speak.

Anything is fine.

"Oh? I didn't expect there to be other busybodies besides us?"

On the judges' panel, Yutenji Wakame, who had been watching the whole thing, suddenly stood up stiffly like a puppet with its strings cut.

Her eyes lost focus, but a strange smile played on her lips.

"However, if you continue to toy with the audience, you'll be devoured by [Doloris]."

The previously restless audience fell silent instantly, followed by a burst of exclamations of sudden realization.

This...this isn't a performance mishap!

This is an AveMujica puppet show! It uses their usual stage techniques!

Yutenji Wakana slowly raised her hand and pointed to the triangular Hatsuka beside her.

"Click, click, click——"

Chu Hua's joints made a sound like rusty machinery as she walked with inhuman steps toward the stage.

Mortis also stood up.

"Unfortunately, Timoris is not here."

Xiangzi's eyes swept over Xingge, who was startled on stage.

"Then let's use that guy instead."

"Use her as a sacrifice to pray for Timoris's brief arrival."

She walked over to Xingge and asked in a voice only the two of them could hear:

Can you play bass?

Xingge nodded, then cooperated with the performance, her body trembling.

It was as if he was truly "possessed" by something, and his eyes became vacant.

The lighting technician finally realized what was happening, and all the lights in the stadium suddenly went out, leaving only five pale spotlights shining on Mujica and his group.

Xiangzi raised his hand, as if proclaiming a divine decree.

"In that case, let us take up our swords and drive away the evil spirits."

The four people who walked onto the stage each picked up their instruments and, together with Xing Ge who had switched to bass, surrounded Lin Yuanshan, the "culprit" in the center of the stage.

Yutenji Wakame struck the war drum.

“AveMujica, descend here.”

In an instant, the lights turned blood red!

Red elephants, red lions, red bears—let's all go crazy!

[The Defeater, the Mastermind, Welcome to the Star of Pain]

In the performance of Mujica's four members

Lin Yuanshan becomes a thief who accidentally enters a forbidden area in a stage play, and is "teased" by four dancing evil spirits in turn, whose figures leave eerie afterimages under the blood-red lights.

Only Yutenji Wakana, who was playing the drum, remained motionless in the back.

There was no other way; she couldn't very well carry a whole drum set to Lin Yuanshan.

The song is over.

Just as the Mujica members were getting into the spirits and preparing for another song—

"Ha...ha...we've arrived!"

The four band members, panting heavily, finally arrived at the back of the stage.

Chu Hua stopped what she was doing and smiled.

"Oh my, has the main character finally arrived?"

Xiangzi tossed his blue hair:

"Then we have no choice but to cede this place."

Mortis took one last look at Lin Yuanshan and Xingge:

"Then take the two sinners with you."

AveMujica gracefully took her bow to the audience, who responded with thunderous applause.

Everyone thought they had been tricked, but it turned out that it was all part of the show that Mujica had planned!

All that cute girl encyclopedia stuff, all that golden lion king stuff, it turns out it was all just for the final twist!

No wonder he's a top star!

You can never guess what they'll do next!

As they were leaving, Yutenji Wakame finally found an opportunity, quickly walked past Lin Yuanshan, and tugged at his sleeve.

She didn't say anything, she just glared at him.

Compared to Saint Aine, who gives selflessly, her debts are not so easy to incur!

But at this point, Lin Yuanshan could only nod his thanks to her.

Fine, I'll just owe it to you for now.

Teacher Da Miao did not press the matter further.

On the other side, Kita and Hatsuka exchanged blows, as if passing a baton.

AveMujica came offstage to take their seats, and the band then came on stage.

As soon as Kita, the lead singer, stepped onto the stage, he gripped the stun gun tightly, eager to try it out.

"How about we start with the 20-hit combo of Thunder God's Severance?"

"You're really going to perform this?"

Hongxia muttered a complaint, picked up the drumsticks, and brought her face close to the microphone.

"We are the closing band from Shimokita, and next we will be playing 'Guitar, Loneliness, and the Blue Planet'!"

The sudden rain

[It reminds me of when I didn't bring an umbrella]

……

The completely different musical style, like a clear spring washing away the gloom and madness of the past, brought a refreshing youthful vibe.

Since it was a stage for a public audience, the band didn't end with their usual live metal style.

Instead, they chose to remain as they were in the beginning.

Offstage, Xingge took off her mask and looked at the glittering Ending Band on stage.

She turned to Lin Yuanshan, who had also removed his disguise, and asked:

How did you feel about the performance?

"Um"

Lin Yuanshan stared at the stage, seemingly comparing it to a scene from the past in his mind.

Finally, he gave a genuine smile.

"Absolutely fantastic!"

Chapter 85 Variety Show Shark

The band's journey on the top variety show "PRODUCETEAM JAPAN" came to an end in an extremely dramatic way.

They failed.

But it's not because of a lack of ability.

It was because the program itself sent it.

Ever since the host spontaneously started talking about "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" on stage, the ratings for this music variety show have inexplicably reached a record high.

The astute executives at Fuji Television saw the enormous potential for transformation.

Therefore, PRODUCETEAM JAPAN was changed to the All-Japan Unlimited Women's Wrestling Tournament in the second week.

The viewership ratings have more than doubled.

In a sense, it could be said that the band ended the show by their own hands.

On Japanese band forums, they earned the nickname "Variety Show Killers" because of this.

Tokyo, a large vehicle driving training school.

Hongxia plans to take her large vehicle driving test here.

In China, this type of driver's license is also known as an "A license".

To prevent Hongxia from becoming Teacher Da Mo 2.0, Lin Yuanshan accompanied her almost the entire time during her exams.

"Seriously, I'm not a child anymore!"

Hongxia complained, but the corners of her mouth, which were harder to suppress than AK's, still betrayed that she enjoyed this "concern".

It was just tough on the driving school instructors standing nearby.

She was completely locked onto by Lin Yuanshan's piercing gaze.

While breaking out in a cold sweat, I repeatedly questioned myself:

What exactly did they do to offend this young man who looks like a yakuza master?

Was he transported to another world by a dump truck in his previous life?

During the break, Lin Yuanshan handed Hongxia a cup of hot drink.

"Speaking of which, why did you suddenly become interested in such a big creature?"

He surveyed the massive trucks on the training field.

"Has the raging, destructive desire deep within finally awakened?"

"???"

"I don't understand what you're saying at all, Lin."

She took a sip of her coffee and explained earnestly:

"The band's equipment transport truck and the RV used for touring both require a large vehicle driver's license. If we were stuck in traffic again like last time, and I were driving, the outcome might be different."
