Entertainment: Starting as a Succubus, Taking Hollywood by Storm

Martin was a succubus who perished at the hands of the Sun God, struck down by a single divine arrow during the epic war between gods and demons. Meanwhile, Martin, a Ph.D. in literature and a seasoned movie enthusiast, lost his life in a car accident in August 2023. By some cosmic twist of fate, the souls of the two Martins converged within the chaotic currents of time and space, merging and eventually settling in the body of an eleven-year-old boy named Martin Myers, living in Los Angeles in 1996. A world without spiritual energy? Fortunately, as a succubus, I don’t need spiritual energy to cultivate; all I need is the essence of desire. Emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, and excitement—are all desires. As long as these emotions are directed at me, they can become fuel for my growth. Alright, let’s see what reliable ways exist in this world to stir people’s emotions en masse. Hmm, becoming a writer—sounds promising; and music, that could work too; but wow, Hollywood movies! They have a global reach; this is perfect! What’s that term again? Right—"Idea Recycler.” I’ll start with writing, but the ultimate goal is to become an international movie star. Acting skills, you say? Don’t worry—I’m a succubus, after all! Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to this novel.

Chapter 97

Martin's precise archery skills stunned visitors from Auckland.

This arrow shoots faster than a bullet and is so accurate, even while riding a horse. This is much more difficult than standing on the ground and shooting a Frisbee with a gun.

"Is it really you?" The official looked at Martin, who was riding back in high spirits, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"It's really me!" Martin replied calmly.

For some reason, the official suddenly relieved his doubts.

Soon, the two sides made a handover. Martin received the bonus from the Emergency Committee and the bounty from the Okla Zoo, but the other party refused to let Martin stay. The request for the cheetah carcass could not be bought with money.

To be honest, Martin did not want the bonus—he wanted the cheetah carcass more.

At the same time, Peter and Richard also received a certain amount of compensation.

While people from Auckland came to check the cheetah carcass, a group of professionals who accompanied them also successfully captured the crocodile hiding in the river.

Finally, the group returned to Auckland with the cheetah carcass and the crocodile.

Three days later, the news that Martin shot the cheetah appeared in major media in New Zealand, accompanied by photos of Martin riding a horse and shooting an arrow.

"It is reported that American genius Martin Meyers was on vacation at his family's private farm in New Zealand when he encountered the famous New Zealand filmmakers Peter Jackson and Richard Taylor, who were being chased by cheetahs that escaped from the Auckland Zoo. Martin Meyers shot and killed two cheetahs with a bow and arrow and rescued two people..." — New Zealand News

"Genius writer Martin Meyers is actually a talented hunter. He has superb riding skills and perfect archery skills. While on vacation locally, he used a bow and arrow to kill two cheetahs that escaped from the Auckland Zoo and rescued famous local filmmakers Peter Jackson and Richard Taylor..." — The Auckland Daily News

It was reported that one of the two cheetahs was actually strangled to death by Martin with a bowstring, but to avoid trouble, Peter Jackson described it entirely as being shot by Martin's bow and arrow.

The people at the Auckland Zoo also kept silent about this under Peter's persuasion. After all, they were in the wrong.

This was mainly to prevent animal protection groups from causing trouble for Martin.

According to animal protection regulations, under certain circumstances, it is okay to shoot animals from a distance, but if they are hunted at close range—such as stabbing to death with a knife or strangling with a rope—they are likely to be considered as cases of animal torture and could result in court charges.

Soon, the news was not limited to print reports.

New Zealand's largest news station, New Zealand Channel 1, also released the news in its daily broadcast, along with photos of the cheetah's carcass and a video of Martin shooting a Frisbee with arrows.

Of course, the video was shot by the "big" director Peter Jackson under the guidance of the photographer. The camera movement and angles were perfect, and there was even a close-up of Martin's heroic posture while riding a horse.

Martin's fame in New Zealand was originally due to the huge sales of the novel Harry Potter, but now it spread like wildfire.

This fire burned from New Zealand to Australia, and from Australia to Europe and the United States...

"I bought it! This is our son who shot two cheetahs! Is this kid going to die? No, I have to talk about him!"

Linda jumped up in shock after seeing the news in the newspaper. She immediately picked up the phone and dialed her son's number.

Grant, on the other hand, carefully looked at the photo of Martin riding a horse and drawing a bow. He couldn't help but be amazed. My son is so proud!

Then his cell phone rang—it was his father, Martin's grandfather.

On the phone, excitement and worry could be heard in the old man's tone: "That's Martin, right, that's my grandson Martin, right?"

"Yes, yes, that is your grandson."

"Hell, when Martin borrowed the farm from me, I thought he was going on vacation. I never thought he was going to hunt cheetahs."

"Dad, that was just a coincidence, Martin was on vacation!"

"Yeah, yeah, whatever he was there for, I just hope Martin is fine. Okay, I'm going to hang up. I can't wait to show it off to my old buddies!"

"Hahahaha, my grandson killed two ferocious man-eating cheetahs with a bow and arrow, hahahahaha!"

"What the hell, that was just a cheetah that escaped from the zoo and has never eaten anyone!" Grant complained silently in his heart, but in the end, he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Lindsay, Lindsay, did you see the news?" Dorothy rushed into the classroom, waving the newspaper.

"I watched it, and Martin's father is really great."

Lindsay was so excited that she even shouted "Martin's father" in public.

Fortunately, the students in the classroom were also excited about this matter, and they were all chattering about it. No one heard clearly what Lindsay said.

"Oh my god, Martin is amazing."

"Martin is my classmate. Hehe, when I told my cousin that day, she almost cried with envy."

"In the Middle Ages, Martin was definitely the bravest knight."

The discussion about Martin in the classroom was actually a microcosm of the discussion about Martin across the entire United States.

After this news was exposed, it caused a sensation throughout the United States...

Some people think that Martin's heroic behavior even deserves a national medal; some think that Martin has brought pride to Americans; others think that this news is fake... such as News of the World: "A boy under fourteen shot two cheetahs? This is really the biggest joke of the century. You've all been fooled by Martin. This news is him bragging for himself. The person who killed the cheetahs might have been his bodyguard..."

But the day after the News of the World article questioning the story was published, major American television media such as CBS and NBC obtained the video of Martin shooting a Frisbee. It was played on the news that night...

This video was really well shot, fully highlighting the heroic figure of Martin galloping on his horse, shooting arrows at high speed, and hitting the target.

The doubts of News of the World were quickly overshadowed by more praise and exclamations. The entire United States was talking about this little genius, and Martin's books and audio-visual works were selling in a big way.

"When will Island of Horror be finished?"

Tom Cruise's call came into the editing room.

"It's coming soon. We'll edit it according to the storyboard script given by Martin. It can be finished in half a month at most."

The editor replied, sweating profusely. Harvey Weinstein also called just now to urge him. Everyone wants to catch up with this wave of popularity.

"Okay, speed it up a little bit, the faster the better, and by the way, there's a soundtrack, I have to give Martin a call."

The same situation applies to another Martin film, Hide and Seek.

Fortunately, the film written by Martin is indeed easy to edit, as long as the editor doesn't make any mistakes—just follow his storyboard script and editing will be quick and smooth!

"Harvey, I have convinced Martin to play the role of the elf prince. When will your investment be available?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, how is our wonder boy doing now?"

"He's fine, but his mother has confined him to the farm. He's followed by four or five bodyguards every time he goes out."

"Hahaha, it should be, it should be, our magical boy is related to the interests of countless people, so nothing can happen to him."

"What about the investment?"

"Okay, okay, I'll hold on tight, that's it, bye."

Damn bastard, I didn't see you caring about me. I was the one almost killed by the cheetah!

Listening to the beeping busy tone on the other side, Peter Jackson was full of resentment.
