Chapter 267 Ninja Massacre


    Creation Contest Using Lucid Dream Imagination Competition


    The interest in this contest was beyond imagination as the total prize money was 100 billion won.


    -World-renowned film director Park Jun-ho. Highly praised for the use of lucid dream.


    - Masters who threw their votes into the contest. What is the imaginary story they created?


    - Final deadline for submission of the contest. What is the screening process...?


    Almost 50,000 applicants.


    Since they were selected through strict restrictions and inspection processes, 100% of them created and submitted their own works. That''s why Icked the capacity to review and evaluate each work on such an enormous scale.


    [This contest will be thoroughly judged blindly. A special banner will be organized on Arfandia, where viewers can directly appreciate the works submitted to the contest and give them a star rating from the heart, and the winning works will be selected based on the results. However, in this process, works that are problematic in excessive sensationalism or violence or works that vite copyright can be excluded from the screening, and also.....] Therefore,


    they do theplicated and difficult screening in a blind manner to the public. handed over With a very good cause of ensuring fairness.


    -oh my god. It took such a huge amount of money, but you leave the evaluation entirely to the public?


    -lol. There is no internal audit. What if a really shitty piece of work gets elected?


    - You said you would filter it if there was a problem with sexuality or violence. I don''t think there will be any problem.


    - There''s nothing wrong with it. You don''t know how much maniption is if you''re judging by star ratings in the first ce, right?


    -Really;; See other contests. Calling it a pum-at, they raise each other''s ratings and even mobilize ounts of acquaintances and rtives to raise their own ratings and lower the ratings of theirpetitors.


    -I see..... What on earth are you thinking about judging like this? No matter how shitty apany is, is it like this while spending 100 billion won?


    A contest screening method that is expected to have enormous side effects and harms. Many people expressed concern about it, but some smiled in contemtion after seeing the detailed screening method.


    “Hehehe... this is really great...?”


    Eom Jun-sik, an unknown film director, submitted his work to this contest.


    He fidgeted with his smartphone as if he was satisfied, his eyes shining.


    “The past few days must have been worthwhile wandering around and putting in a lot of effort. I was thinking about 30%, but the viewer rating is 100%. It is beyond imagination.”


    The seniors and juniors at work and colleagues whom I met while working as a film director in college. And to my parents'' acquaintances and rtives'' nieces and nephews. He literally mobilized all possible acquaintances andworks to ask for support for his contest work.


    Therefore, the evaluation method of this contest was no different from attaching wings to Jun-shik''s work.


    “The beginning is the most important thing. After increasing the exposure with a high star rating and high number of views... After that, you only have to mess with thepeting works thate up.”


    As soon as the works are released, they give high stars to their works. And a star rating terrorism forpeting works that areing up. He was crazy about the idea that if he continued to hold on like that, he would be able to gain poprity based on stable exposure and influx. Jun-shik''s heart started beating fast, thinking that winning the prize would not be so far off if he did well.


    “Life is, after all, only for the shrewd to seed. Who’s stupid to just pour water and wait?”


    Opportunities are created, not seized.


    Offense is the best defense.


    Jun-shik is doing his best to win thispetition regardless of means and methods. However, Arcadia Co., Ltd. was not an easy opponent to the extent that his small brains worked.


    [Oh, and in the case of Korean subscribers, we n to limit the ability to give stars to works in this contest. There may be illegal horoscope maniption by acquaintances or rtives, and malicious acts of terrorism against otherpetitors may also ur.


    ] Overseas subscribers will be able to determine the winners of the contest. In addition, participants may be excluded from the judging if they are judged to have disclosed their work to the outside world or exposed rted information in any way, so please be careful once again.] Additional announcements just before the contest opens


    .


    It was a contest held only in Korea, but it was a contradictory situation that Koreans could not judge. Although it seemed to be an additional measure taken because of various concerns, many people were shocked by this super-precipitation.


    -??? Why can''t we rate?


    -No, the participant is Korean, but why is the evaluator a foreigner?


    - Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. If the Yankee Sherrys don''t like it, they''ll just leave.


    -???: What is Korean is the most global.


    -Ha..... Isn''t this treating all Koreans as potential criminals? It''s a bit ufortable.


    -From my point of view, it seems like the fairest and cleanest way? Comments, why are you like this.....


    Comments running on both extremes. Of course, most of them were indifferent to this evaluation method unless they were participants or rted acquaintances, but for some people like Jun-shik, it was nothing but lightning-like news.


    “These fucking feet... what is this!”


    Jun-sik finished the ground work in advance and was fully prepared. However, all of his efforts went to waste, and this contest has be a situation in which he has topete purely with only his works. And the evaluation of Koreans was excluded. That was a very painful fatal blow for Junshik.


    Title:


    Democratization of Taxi.


    military coup.


    fight.


    oppression.


    resistance.


    Because the work he made was a sentimental political work created to receive good reviews among Koreans who made a huge topic subject that cannot be left out when referring to Korean political history. For foreigners who have no interest in Korean politics, it was just a mediocre work that would not be strange at all even if it was sunk in the deep sea.


    * * *


    “Jake! After you finish eating, go up and do your homework.”


    eastern US.


    Jake is a 15-year-old middle-ss boy living in Boston.


    He went into his room at his mother''s nagging and immediately took out his smartphone.


    “Chit. The homework still has 3 days left until the deadline. My mother is always a good person.”


    He, who always handles everything by cramming, has no desire to do his homework yet. That''s why Jake took out his smartphone and entered Arpendia, which he habitually entered.


    “This contest... Nothing is more fun than I thought.....”


    The recently opened contest window.


    There were already a huge number of works divided into four fields, but most of them were of a poor level that was inferior to that of ordinary films.


    “No, why are the video lengths so short and the content monotonous? what''s this.”


    A lucid dream that fully realizes what you imagined.


    I watched it with high expectations because it was made using high-tech equipment, but the videos Jake had seen so far were truly disappointing.


    “At least there were a few good ones...”


    A post-apocalyptic world. ‘The omniscient writer''s point of view'' depicts the story of a writer trapped in his own scenario struggling to survive in it.


    A rich but very unlucky boss. And ‘President Kim is Too Much'', a romanceedy in which the female lead who says everything next to the boss draws a strange atmosphere and bangs with the boss.


    In reality, the main character who only appears in the game status window alone. And the ‘Alone Status Window'' depicts the story of defeating monsters in the world that suddenly appear and be stronger based on the power in the game.


    He gave generous ratings to some of the works he liked, but he continued to browse through the contest windows as no work had yet appeared to give full marks.


    “Isn’t there something really novel and interesting...?”


    Jake sets out to find something to satisfy his inexpressible desire. And he soon found something with a strange title.


    “What is this....? Space invasion of earless cat robots...?”


    Just hearing the name, this is a title that I want to be something.


    However, when he clicked on the video as if he was bewitched by the strangely eye-catching and curious title, he could not help but fall in love with the amount and tremendous visual beauty beyond his imagination.


    [Uncivilized people of the past who do not know quantum mechanics!]


    [On the subject of a cat robot without ears! I can''t lose!]


    [Kwak-kwak-kwak. puffer pung. Puff.]


    Vast outer space.


    An enormous space war taking ce within it.


    In this fierce battle for the life and death of human civilization, Jake was stunned by something the main character was dragging.


    [good! Titanium Mecha, Brychiosaur!]


    [Kieeh!]


    “What is this.....”


    A robot. dinosaur. And the armor..... From space and quantum mechanics to time travel.


    It was a subject that was so bizarre and confusing that it was the first time he had seen it, but Jake''s eyes lit up with anticipation rising in his heart little by little as he saw something.


    “It''s novel.....”


    In a way, the ingredients are really sick.


    However, the forces of the main character and the space battleship of the robot cat who are fighting so fiercely.


    And the characters who spoke lines with a lively look faithfully reflected the elements of a typical boy''s cartoon.


    friendship. effort. and win.


    A video that stimtes the emotions of a middle school student overflowing with hormones at the age of 15. Jake, who enjoyed this huge narrative that made his heart feel magnificent just by looking at it, eventually burst into tears at the part where the main character''s precious colleague self-destructs.


    “Oh, no. Titanium Mecha, Brychiosaur!”


    A preciouspanion of the protagonist who sacrificed himself to stop the evil space battleship''s attempt topletely blow up the Earth while preparing aary destruction cannon. Feeling great sadness in that scene, Jakepletely immersed himself in the anger of the main character that followed.


    [This is why you past people who don''t even know quantum mechanics are pathetic. Without knowing what will happen in the future, they are attacking me who sacrificed everything to help and came back to the past without knowing what will happen in the future... Kwuk..... It''s really ridiculous.] [What the hell are you talking about


    ... ? Talk to me! What the hell is going on in the future!]


    But a robot cat without ears hints that there is something more by telling a mysterious story. Jake listens with gulps at his words that he''s a viin, but he''s not a viin, but he actually has a bigger n. But in the next scene, he couldn''t help but be astonished.


    “What is this... Ninja...?”


    Three ninjas suddenly appeared.


    Mysterious beings wearing ck suits from head to toe. Through the weapons in their hands, they were bragging about their identities as if they were advertising to the whole world.


    [You talk too much, Quantum Mechanics Cat.]


    [You twisted the flow of space-time too much. You should know that this kind of intervention in the past is not allowed, right?]


    [You guys...! How did ite this far.....]


    [The existence of the past gave me information that I shouldn''t have known.]


    [Who are you guys! Reveal your identity!]


    Ray Kunai. shuriken. Those holding ninja swords and approaching the main character and the robot cat vigorously. And they uttered a single word to the two of them so heartlessly and brandished their weapons.


    [Unfortunately, your fate has been decided here. Die.]


    [That''s what!]


    [Chuck.]


    After that, the mysterious ninjas killed the main character and the earless robot cat with a single blow.


    After killing the viin and the main character in a fierce battle for the fate of the Earth, they looked at the blue star Earth from the bridge of a space battleship that had stopped functioning and turned off.


    [Prepare for the next turn.]


    [All for quantum mechanics.]


    [Now it''s finally starting.]


    The video ended like that.


    Even after the video ended, Jake, who had been staring at his smartphone for a long time in a daze, shouted in a voice full of resentment, forgetting that he was doing something else without his mother''s knowledge.


    “what! What! What the hell! How could it end like this!”


    An irresistible curiosity.


    The movie ended in 1 hour and 49 minutes, but Jake, who was so curious about the identity of the space ninjas that appeared at the end, muttered like an addict with withdrawal symptoms with red eyes.


    “Next episode! Where is the next episode! this is not it! What if it ends like this!”


    Jake, who resents the creator of the video and struggles with a stuffy feeling as if he stopped pooping in the middle. That''s how he suffered for a while from the thirst he felt for the first time at the age of 15.


    The ending where ninjas appear and kill them all.


    Bizarre, but ironically so well made.


    By one mind-bending video.
