The Creator of the Second Dimension

In the editorial department of "Youth Frontline Monthly", Li Ruoxuan took a sip of the coffee in the mug and looked at the computer screen.

This is the list of new serials in June. In addition to the works of two authors who won the Newcomer Award earlier, there is also a slightly special new work.

"Bloodborne: Curse", this is a customized comic from Fantastic Animation. Most of this kind of comics are the comic version of a certain animation, the game, serialized with the release of the work, some ended hastily, and some are direct eunuchs , most of them did not end well.

Li Ruoxuan didn't know the fate of this comic, but she knew that this comic would definitely not be like other adapted comics.

Because it was originally made by Holofer, the designer from the toy bag company who designed the cult model "Nightmare Unknown" series.

And the one who drew it is Da Ou, a little-known cartoonist.

It is said that he is not well-known, but in fact, Daou originally had a series called "Lucky Superman Asan". With the support of him, he created several storyboards for new works, but in the end they still failed to pass the review of the serialization meeting. Several cartoonists who debuted with him and were killed in half have given up creation and changed their careers with peace of mind, but he did not stop there, but continued Accumulate experience as an assistant.

Finally, when Xu Rui approached Li Ruoxuan and said that he wanted to create a comic adaptation and needed Li Ruoxuan to provide a good artist for painting, Da Ou was recommended to Magic Electric.

After confirming the form, Li Ruoxuan picked up the file bag with the manuscript next to it. This is the manuscript that was sent just now, the first chapter of "Bloodborne: Curse".

She opened the file bag, and a scent of ink wafted in. The first page of the comic was very powerful, similar to a promotional poster. Under a cold moonlight, a man in a long trench coat was holding a musket and a sawing axe, with his back to the screen.

Continuing later, you can see the protagonist wake up in an abandoned clinic, surrounded by dilapidated scenes, he heard some voices, went down the stairs, and saw a werewolf with hair all over his body!

Just when the protagonist wanted to tear the werewolf apart or be saved by a mysterious force according to the routine, he was torn apart by the werewolf just like that!

After a small black screen, the unarmed protagonist wakes up and finds himself outside a dilapidated building. The world looks distorted and weird, and the distance is shrouded in a fog, exuding a strange and dangerous atmosphere.

There is a lifeless doll outside the building. The doll is dressed in a red and black dress, exquisite but cold.

The protagonist pushed open the door of the building, and saw that there was another person besides the messy tables and chairs inside.

A person in a wheelchair.

He calls himself Geman and tells the protagonist that this is a hunter's dream. Through this dream, he can go back and forth between here and Yanan Village. He needs to find the secret that makes the whole village crazy.

The plot of the first chapter is very brief, and it finally freezes when the protagonist obtains a cane from the hunter's dream as a weapon and kills the werewolf downstairs with difficulty.

Teacher Daou’s paintings are very delicate. Although the manuscript is black and white, it reveals the texture like an oil painting. Before that, Li Ruoxuan always thought that Daou’s painters were very good, but the creativity of the story was not enough, which eventually led to a cut in half.

But this time is different, Daou is only responsible for the painting part, and can devote all his energy to composition and painting, which makes the completion of each page of this comic amazing.

For example, in the scene where the protagonist wakes up at the beginning, the cobwebs in the corner, the overturned cup, and the messy pages of the book, all the details are clear, and the whole picture has a strong impact.

Another example is the hunter's dream, this weird place is full of twists, weirdness, and indescribability, but the delicate dolls have a hint of extraordinary and inaccessible, which leaves a deep impression on people.

Holofer's script was unconventional from the very beginning. Although the background and characters are more like elegant Europe, the whole story seems to reveal a hint of madness, especially the meaningless words that fill every corner of the page. Qing's whispers made people feel even more creepy.

Obviously, the first chapter does not have any special scary monsters or plots except for the werewolf, but it just makes people feel uncomfortable, and the strong unknown and uneasiness condenses into fear, permeating every page.

To be honest, this kind of atmosphere is very different from other comics on "Monthly Young Frontline". You must know that although it is a magazine for young people, most of the works of "Monthly Young Frontline" are passionate works that praise friendship, hard work and victory. Even "Soul Eater" is only a little bit off.

But "Bloodborne: Curse" is completely different. At that time, it took Li Ruoxuan a lot of time to persuade the editor-in-chief to agree to serialize it in the magazine. In the end, it was the fame of the fantasy animation and the quality of the storyboard that moved him.

After checking the manuscript, Li Ruoxuan will hand it over to the printing department.

She drank the coffee and washed the cup before returning to pick up the file bag.

"It seems that I haven't been to the fantasy video game recently, so let's stop by when I visit Teacher Shuhai this afternoon."

Li Ruoxuan said as if talking to herself.

In the animation animation, Li Ruoxuan took the elevator to the second floor with her afternoon tea.

It is still busy here, an animation film, a production of an animation in July, so that the original painters have no free time, the tense atmosphere surrounds the office, maybe only when Li Ruoxuan comes, everyone can breathe a little easier.

But looking left and right, Li Ruoxuan did not find Xu Rui's figure.

"For Xu Rui, he's on the third floor next door."

Yi Qianqian sipped her black tea and said to Li Ruoxuan who was looking around.

"Ah, okay, I'll go over there, thank you, Miss Qianqian."

Li Ruoxuan nodded, put a piece of strawberry cake on Yi Qianqian's table, and went to Chuyin Video Network next door.

Climbing up to the third floor, she immediately saw Xu Rui fiddling with something in the tea room beside her.

Walking over, Li Ruoxuan saw that Xu Rui was debugging in front of a camera stand, with several laptops next to it.

"What are you doing?"

Li Ruoxuan asked, Xu Rui turned around, saw Li Ruoxuan, and looked at his camera.

"You came just in time."

He asked Li Ruoxuan to sit on the chair opposite, then pressed the switch of the camera, and picked up the laptop to type on the keyboard. After a while, he nodded with some satisfaction.

"What is this doing?"

Li Ruoxuan was not used to facing the camera, so she sat a little cautiously, and was curious about what Xu Rui was up to, so she stuck her head out and asked.

"Look."

Xu Rui handed over one of the laptops. On it was an open web page, which looked like the page of Hatsune Video Network, but it was different.

On the video page, it was Li Ruoxuan who was sitting on the chair. She still maintained the previous movement. Then, she handed over the notebook with one hand, and Li Ruoxuan in the video turned her gaze to the screen.

Li Ruoxuan was a little surprised, and hurriedly raised her head to look at the camera. After a while, she looked up and looked outside the screen.

There is no doubt that this video is a slightly delayed camera shot.

"Is this a live video?"

Li Ruoxuan tilted her head, not quite understanding.
