Chapter 245: 245: Filming and Acting
Then Ivan arrived at the shooting location and saw Stormfront and Homelander walking toward him.
"Greevs, I heard from the director that you want to cameo as the villain in the movie. Didn't expect you to have this kind of hobby."
Stormfront smiled slightly. The expression on her face was quite natural. Almost no trace could be seen.
"Don't you think acting is a very interesting thing? Especially playing the villain standing opposite the superheroes. I think this kind of experience must be quite novel." Ivan smiled as he took the script the assistant director handed over.
"Please go to the rest area and wait a little. Our prop masters are still arranging the scene inside the studio." The studio the assistant director mentioned was a rectangular building constructed from steel bars and wooden boards, occupying a full thousand square meters. At a glance people would mistake it for a warehouse for storing goods.
As for the rest area, it was in an open-air environment. There were large sun umbrellas above, and under the umbrellas were some tables and chairs for the staff to rest. There was even a food and drink area. If you wanted something to eat or drink you could just grab it yourself.
"Greevs, are you good at acting?" Stormfront picked up the orange juice on the dining table and stuck a straw into it.
"Maybe. Anyway, ever since I started participating in the shooting, what I've heard has basically all been praise."
Ivan's humor made the staff to the side laugh.
"Greevs, when I shoot you with lasers later, should I use special effects, or…" Before Homelander finished speaking his eyes already glowed with red light. But the red light vanished in a flash. Looks like he only wanted to joke with Ivan.
"I guess the director should prefer the latter, because that would be real enough. Of course, standing from my personal angle, I still don't hope that terrifying laser of yours lands on my body." Ivan smiled, as if facing the threat of Homelander's heat vision he wasn't nervous at all.
Seeing this, Homelander's gaze couldn't help becoming a bit heavier.
"Have to say, you're becoming more and more like Edgar. Apart from him, I'm afraid only you can stay this calm under my heat vision." Homelander sighed with feeling.
At the same time the suspicion toward Ivan in his heart grew a little heavier.
"By the way, Greevs, how much do you know about that mysterious man?" Stormfront to the side asked after taking a sip of juice.
Ivan thought for a moment and said, "A mysterious and powerful terrorist. Oh, and a walking fifteen million dollars."
During Ivan's answer Stormfront constantly watched the changes in his expression. But what disappointed her was that when Greevs mentioned the mysterious man there was no micro-expression at all.
This meant Greevs either truly didn't know the mysterious man or didn't know about the whereabouts of the mysterious man, or his expression management ability had already reached master level.
At this moment the assistant director holding the script ran all the way over in front of them.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. All the work is currently prepared. The director is waiting for everyone."
...
"Next there's an action scene, so we have to hang you on wires."
"This thing is really troublesome enough." Ivan was hung in mid-air by the wires, then at the director's command he slightly spread both hands and slowly descended with palms facing down.
If special effects were added, at this moment he should have been landing in front of Stormfront in an extremely elegant manner.
But the problem was there were no special effects on site, so his movements looked a bit hard to watch.
But the expressions of him and Stormfront were extra serious.
"Get off Earth. This place doesn't belong to you!" Strands of electric light overflowed from Stormfront's eyes, then she summoned a bolt of lightning and struck toward Ivan!
"Very good."
The director sitting in front of the computer secretly praised the two people's performance, but immediately after he reacted. What the hell? This didn't seem to be special effects. Stormfront actually used her powers for real!
He immediately raised his head and looked toward Ivan with a tense expression.
At this moment facing the incoming lightning Ivan had no intention of dodging at all. As expected the lightning brushed past him and blasted a large pit in the ground behind him.
"Mr. Greevs?!" The director couldn't help crying out.
"I'm fine."
Hearing Ivan say he was fine, the director finally let out a breath, then immediately looked toward Stormfront.
"Sorry, reflex. I'll be careful." Stormfront looked at Ivan's completely calm face and couldn't understand why the other party hadn't dodged her attack. Was it because he had enough confidence that he could block her lightning? Or because he didn't want to expose his powers in front of everyone?
However, wanting to use this method to test whether the other party was the mysterious man might be a bit too difficult.
After all Ivan had already displayed powers in front of them before. The purpose of her test this time was to see whether Greevs still had other powers besides physical regeneration. Unfortunately, facing her attack, Greevs didn't even dodge. This made her plan fall through immediately.
Ivan raised his right hand. It was as if an invisible force blasted out from the center of his palm.
Stormfront standing opposite him was like she had been hit in the chest by a heavy truck. She instantly flew backward, rolled several times on the ground, and finally bit open the blood pack hidden in her mouth, letting red liquid overflow from the corners of her lips.
Next, according to the plot in the script, Ivan walked forward with composed steps, approaching the heavily injured Stormfront one step at a time.
"Even if I sacrifice myself, I won't let your scheme succeed."
Stormfront knelt half on the ground with difficulty, as if wanting to make a last desperate stand.
But the next moment, as Ivan pressed his palm downward, it was as if an extremely heavy pressure pressed down on Stormfront. After several struggles Stormfront was about to completely kneel in front of Ivan.
At this critical moment Homelander, draped in the Stars and Stripes, made a shining entrance in this tragic and heavy atmosphere.
He threw a punch at Ivan, and Ivan could only hurriedly raise both arms to block. Then under the drag of the wires he flew backward as if he had been knocked flying, and smashed through a wall made of special materials.
[Talent Skill: Super Physique]
[Fusion Condition: Withstand Homelander's attacks for three minutes without dying]
[After fusion the player's physique will be greatly enhanced, while also increasing the player's resistance to low temperature, toxins and other negative effects. At the same time the player's strength and speed will also receive a partial boost…]
The instant he was smashed into the wall, Ivan casually glanced at the panel.
Withstanding Homelander's attacks for three minutes without dying might have some difficulty in a normal fight, but right now this was acting. Wanting to meet this analysis condition was simply too easy.
However the fusion conditions of the other abilities weren't this simple.
