Chapter 542 New Movie

Merlin took Alicia to the filming location, and the destination was near the castle where "Cinderella" was filmed.

Today, this place has been carefully built into a tourist attraction like a film and television city. Fantasy buildings and decorations can be seen everywhere, attracting many tourists to come and go, making it very lively.

As they walked, Alicia curiously asked Merlin, "Merlin, what movie are you going to shoot next?"

Merlin smiled, took out the script from his arms and handed it to Alicia.

Alicia took the script, took a closer look, and was stunned. The name of the script was "The Holy Maiden of the Moon: The Plague War".

She began to read the script introduction carefully: In the last century, the evil followers of the ancient gods spread the seeds of evil thoughts to every corner of the world, attempting to spread the war to the entire continent of Aize.

Leah, a half-elf girl born in the Elf Forest, loves nature and peace by nature.

When he heard the news of the rampant invasion by the followers of the Ancient God Cult, the fire of justice ignited in his heart, and he resolutely wanted to join the federal army and contribute his own strength to protecting world peace.

However, reality dealt her a heavy blow.

Because of her half-elf blood and her frail health, Leia's request to join the army was ruthlessly rejected.

But the turning point of fate always happens inadvertently. By chance, with the help of the contemporary Moon Temple High Priest Duolong, this petite girl was able to enter the Moon Temple training camp.

Here, she not only accepted Duolong's inheritance, but also received the blessing of the Moon Goddess.

A miracle happened. Leia successfully achieved the return of her ancestral bloodline and eventually became the contemporary Saint of the Moon Temple! She will bring the will of the Moon Goddess to defeat the evil followers of the ancient gods!

When Alicia saw the script introduction, she was filled with confusion and shock.

She couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Although there was indeed a Saint named Leah in the Moon Temple before, as far as I know, she should be a high elf. Moreover, the High Priest of the Moon Temple, Doron, who is famous throughout the entire Azer Continent, is not from the same era as Saint Leah, right? How could she appear in such a plot setting?"

Alicia was full of questions and couldn't help but continue reading.

As she read on, her expression gradually became serious. Finally, she couldn't help but said to Merlin, "Isn't this deceiving? Most of the content here is fake! How could Saint Leah be a half-elf? This is seriously inconsistent with the facts."

"What do you mean by deception?" Merlin raised his voice and shouted, "You can't say that. This is called artistic processing. Do you understand? Isn't film creation about attracting audiences through appropriate adaptation?"

"Artistic processing? Humph, I finally understand. You are clearly making plans for Staci, the half-elf. Saint Leah is obviously a high elf, but you insisted on changing her into a half-elf. You have ulterior motives!" Alicia was very dissatisfied, and her tone unconsciously carried a hint of sourness.

"What do you know?" Merlin retorted confidently, "Only stories about people rising from the bottom are worth watching. The bloodline theory popular among your elves is not very attractive to other races. Audiences like to watch stories about small people overcoming numerous difficulties and finally achieving success. This is the only way to resonate with a wide range of people, don't you understand?"

Although his little thoughts were exposed by Alicia, Merlin remained calm and continued to speak confidently.

"We, the elves, will never allow such fraud to happen!" Alicia was so angry that she couldn't help yelling. She felt that Merlin's behavior was disrespectful to the history and traditions of the elves.

"Refutation is invalid!" Merlin snorted twice, putting on a condescending attitude, "I am the High Priest of the Moon of the Elves, as long as I agree, it's fine. I have the absolute right to say in this matter."

Alicia was so angry that her face turned red. She threatened loudly: "Believe it or not, I will tell the Pope and let her judge for herself!"

"Hey, go tell them." Merlin said sarcastically without any fear, "It's no use telling them. His Majesty the Pope doesn't have a veto. When it comes to matters of the Moon Temple, the High Priest and the Pope vote to decide. Sorry, the other High Priest is also my man. So, even if you tell the Pope, it won't change anything."

Alicia was so angry at Merlin that she was speechless. Her face flushed and she said angrily, "You will regret blaspheming the saint! This behavior is simply disrespectful to Saint Leah."

"Don't worry, the Moon Goddess has agreed to this. If you don't believe me, just look." After Merlin finished speaking, Selene in his body seemed to have telepathic connection and cooperated by "lighting up".

Above Merlin's head, the moonlight quickly condensed into bright moonlight, emitting a holy and soft light, and the blessing of the Moon Goddess descended upon him.

Alicia was dumbfounded. She looked at this scene in disbelief, her heart filled with shock. No, even if Merlin was the High Priest of the Moon, was it so easy to communicate with the Moon Goddess?

Since even the Moon Goddess agreed, Alicia knew that no matter how much she objected, it would be useless.

In desperation, she could only kneel down on one knee and said respectfully: "In that case, I will follow your will."

But she was still somewhat dissatisfied with Merlin's behavior, and secretly thought that she must find an opportunity to make Merlin pay the price for his behavior.

Merlin was very satisfied with Alicia's attitude at the moment. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Okay, you don't have to keep worrying about these details. In the next period of time, you should talk less and observe more and learn more. If you can learn one or two of my shooting techniques, it will be enough for you to benefit from in the film industry for a lifetime."

Although Alicia was still not happy in her heart, she knew in her heart that in the field of film, as a well-deserved creator and pioneer, Merlin's words did make sense.

Merlin turned around and shouted louder, "Where's Stacey? How's her preparation going? And the filming team, are they all in place? Have you checked the props and costumes?"

Hearing Merlin's call, the on-site staff immediately got busy, responding to the progress of various preparations.

Seeing this, Alicia hurriedly picked up the small notebook she had prepared in advance and took notes carefully while watching the busy scene around her.

Alice and Lianna were not idle either. They took out the communication crystals and prepared to record the video.

Merlin noticed their actions and quickly reminded them, "You can record the video, but be careful not to include the plot of the movie. You can only record the photographer's shooting techniques and skills. The plot of the movie is confidential before it is released. Once leaked, it will have a great impact on the promotion and release of the movie."

Alice and Lianna looked at each other and saw understanding in each other's eyes. They nodded seriously and said, "President Merlin, don't worry, we understand the reason."

After saying that, he adjusted the angle of the communication crystal and focused on recording the photographer setting up the camera, debugging the equipment, and some preparation techniques before shooting.

The atmosphere on the scene was tense yet orderly, as everyone was making final preparations for the upcoming filming.
