A vial of alchemical potion slipped from the hands of a stunned spellcaster.
The sound of glass shattering clearly echoed in the entire Kriya Alchemy Shop, completely breaking the previous strange silence.
"Belle just killed that knight by herself?"
"More than one knight!"
Because it was a short film, the battle part was very brief. Belle killed seven knights in just one minute with the alchemy tools she carried.
When she walked out of the flames with her lover, the entire alchemy shop fell into silence again, but this time the silence didn't last long before being overwhelmed by a wave of applause.
Joshua could see the audience who were so excited that they hugged each other... Although it was only a small advertisement, it proved that Joshua had succeeded by arousing the emotions of the audience.
"So these people will go into what you call a 'buy, buy, buy' state?" Ciri put the Prophet back on the ground, then glanced at the crowd around him.
"It will take a while for popularity and word of mouth to accumulate, and TV has already attracted enough customers for this alchemy shop."
Joshua didn't expect to rely on an advertisement to let Klia Firm defeat all of Nolan's business rivals, but the response of the first short film was so great that Joshua believed that the audience would not be satisfied.
The picture on the screen also gradually fell into darkness at this time. Qiao Xiu didn't have enough programs for the "TV" to run 24 hours a day, and this was exactly the direction Qiao Xiu was going to take next.
"If you need to buy anything, just use this contract, it's free."
Joshua gave the prophet a parchment bearing the insignia of the Kriya Chamber of Commerce.
"His Royal Highness, it seems that the people from Klia Firm are looking for you." The Prophet immediately caught the key information from the noisy voice in the store.
After the advertisement ended, Fritt, the manager of the Klia firm, hurried downstairs and looked for Joshua everywhere.
Judging from his flushed face, he has personally experienced the success of this ad.
"It seems to be to invite your highness to the banquet." The prophet continued, "this is a good opportunity for your highness to broaden your network."
"Uh... This is also troublesome for you, Frit knows that you are my messengers."
However, Joshua didn't intend to attend the banquet. He didn't know where he found a top hat and went straight across the crowd with Ciri.
When the entire Keria shop was in an atmosphere of cheers and celebration, Joshua and Ciri disappeared into the shop without a sound.
"Aren't you going to eat dinner?"
Ciri followed behind Qiao Xiu and glanced around the alchemy market. At this time, the entire alchemy market was filled with a... festive atmosphere.
It must be "Beauty and the Demon" fans celebrating the resurrection of the Demon Prince!
"I don't mind if you want to go, Ciri, but I have more important things to do next." Joshua found a carriage driver and sat directly on it, then waved to the prophet and his party standing at the door. as a goodbye.
"What's more important?"
Ciri directly ignored the words in front of Qiao Xiu, and got into the carriage with Qiao Xiu.
"Witness the birth of a whole new genre of music," Joshua said.
…
A slightly shabby pub on the corner of Squirrel Street.
Shortly after the short film "Beauty and the Devil" ended, the guests in the tavern were still immersed in the joy of Belle and the Devil Prince being reunited.
But in the alley outside the tavern, Holm was standing in the darkest corner of the alley with a bruised face. In front of him were two tall orcs.
As soon as Holm supported his swaying body and stood up, one of the orcs threw a fist and hit him in the stomach... His stomach acid began to churn, and his body lost his balance and fell on the ground full of sewage.
"Damn... The silver coins I owe you... have all been returned to you." Holm propped himself up on his elbows and looked at the two orcs who were moving their fingers in front of him.
"To be precise, you still owe a silver coin." A diminutive goblin stepped out from behind the orc, his small eyes staring at Holm, who was lying in the sewage. "And you owe it for thirty-seven days, Holm, you You are already a 'big celebrity' on that screen, how should you take care of your old friends?"
Hearing the goblin mention the word famous, Holm clenched his blood-stained lips, and his fists clenched.
But in the next second, he seemed to remember something, his clenched hands lost strength, and his eyes dimmed.
"I'm not famous at all." Holm's voice carried a hint of prayer: "So give me a little more time for that silver coin, and I...will definitely be able to..."
Before Holm could finish speaking, the orc kicked him in the stomach again.
"Boy... You are a little self-aware, but you borrowed one silver coin thirty-seven days ago, and now you have to pay back two gold coins." The goblin's voice sounded like he was expecting something. "I know you are useless. Humans can't afford to pay back, didn't you also adopt a baby girl? I happen to have an employer who needs that little guy..."
As soon as Holm heard the goblin mention the baby girl, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the calf of one of the orcs... This action completely angered the orc, and he let out a low growl, wanting to step on it. on Holm's chest.
But in the next second, pure white magic radiance bloomed in the dark alley, the orc seemed to be held by an invisible arm, and there was no room for resistance to be directly shot in the wall.
"Baby kidnapping is absolutely taboo in that country, right? Everyone."
The voice... sounded at the end of the alley, and the goblin turned back in horror to find two humans standing at the end of the alley... One of the humans held a staff with a faint light.
The orc beside the goblin roared, pulled out a short knife from his arms and rushed towards the two humans.
But the human with the staff just waved his finger, and the orc, who was nearly two meters tall, was suspended in mid-air under the influence of the magic inscription, and then crossed a graceful arc ruthlessly. fell on the other side of the alley.
At this moment, the goblin had realized the difference in strength, and the timid goblin jumped directly into Nolan's sewers and disappeared without even thinking.
Holm also gradually regained consciousness at this time. He wiped the mud that blocked his eyes with his hand, and looked up to see the figure standing in front of him through the moonlight.
"You can't play the next game just lying here."
A pure white inscription of order also appeared on Qiao Xiu's hand, and with the help of the mage, he lifted the human who fell into the sewage.
