Demons Beside You

A cold smile appeared on Herretia’s face, but it disappeared almost immediately and was replaced by fear.

“Oh no, there are so many sharks!”

“Don’t worry. They can’t hurt us.” Chen Zhao was not worried at all.

“But our speedboat is so small. What if they hit and overturn us?”

“They won’t be able to hit us,” Chen Zhao said calmly. “I have a pet killer whale that is behind them.”

Herretia sneered silently. Killer whale?

What’s the use of just one killer whale? There are more than a dozen adult great white sharks behind.

Even if you have a killer whale, the sharks can still eat you alive.

Suddenly, a water pillar erupted behind the speedboat.

Then, a giant leaped out of the sea with a five-meter long shark in its mouth.

Herretia’s eyes widened. What is that?!

That’s a killer whale? Really?

I’m not very educated, but stop lying to me…

The killer whale was at least four times as long and ten times as heavy as an ordinary killer whale.

Before this particular killer whale, the great white sharks looked like a group of cats before an African lion.

Attacking the killer whale with these sharks?

Actually, Herretia was precisely doing so.

But the killer whale swallowed the sharks one after another.

Herretia was convinced that she was merely feeding the killer whale.

Herretia felt very upset. She had spent so much magical power just to summon food for her target.

The plot should have been different…

“Ms. Herretia, you look really pale.”

“No… I was just shocked. I’m fine now.” In her mind, Herretia roared, My magical power!

She would not be able to recover for a few days. The more she thought about how she fed the killer whale with her power, the more depressed she became.

The speedboat was about to reach its destination. From afar, they could already see the crew filming on the beach.

“Mr. Chen, you’re finally here! Mr. Steven has been angry a few times already. Quickly, follow me.”

“Right.” Chen Zhao jumped off the boat and helped Herretia to alight too.

“She is…?”

“Isn’t she an actress here?”

“Hi, I’m from Trista Management. I’m acting as the woman beside the Mexican gang leader,” Herretia said.

She had put in a lot of effort in order to get close to Chen Zhao.

On the surface, she was an actress for the movie.

“Oh, follow me.” James looked at Herretia again.

To be honest, Herretia was indeed beautiful, which made her suitable for the superficial role.

James led the way. Soon, they could hear Steven’s voice in front.

When Chen Zhao reached the filming location, James suddenly threw himself on the beach.

“James, what are you doing?”

Then, everyone in the crew took out a cake and flung it at Chen Zhao.

Steven was the most cheerful one, of course. “Hit him! We have to start work so early because of him!”

“F**k! Old asshole, I’m going to kill you…”

Steven turned around and fled. With his clothing in a mess, Chen Zhao chased after Steven in rage. “Do you know how much my clothes cost?! Why are you so childish?”

“F**k… I had to wake up so early because of you. It’s your punishment.”

Fortunately, it did not last long. Very soon, Chen Zhao and Steven began to work.

Only secondary scenes would be filmed today. The actors present were mostly bit-part actors or extras, with almost no leads.

Moreover, all the acting would be centered around Amon. Steven planned to film scenes that involved interactions between Amon and the other actors first.

It was estimated to take around a week. In fact, it would be an important part of the movie.

“Terry, Amon will bring you into the sea later. Are you ready?” Steven asked.

“Yes Sir, I’m ready.”

Once Steven started working, he would become totally serious and strict.

Terry was a stuntman. He would play as a gangster in the movie.

In the plot, he would fall into the sea during a fight and be dragged by Amon into the deep sea.

“Chen, is Amon ready?”

“Yes. Mr. Terry, you need protective pads for areas below your waist. Although Amon won’t actually bite you, you might still be injured.”

“Got it. Mr. Chen, my life is in your hands.”

“Chen, wear diving equipment and help me to film some scenes in the sea,” Steven said.

“F**k, do I get paid extra?”

“Nope, it’s part of the punishment.”

It was rather cold in the morning, especially in the sea. It felt really uncomfortable.

However, since the other underwater cameramen could manage it, so could Chen Zhao.

The scene was very difficult to capture. It had to be filmed from different angles by three cameramen on the surface and six underwater cameramen.

Such a stunt scene was usually pretty dangerous.

Therefore, most filmmakers would create it with CGI. Nevertheless, the two-minute scene would cost about two million dollars to make. After editing, it would only be around forty seconds long in the actual movie. This was clearly too costly for the mid-budget movie.

Furthermore, CGI would definitely be less impressive than filming the real thing.

All in all, Steven decided to do the actual filming, provided safety was guaranteed.

If something unfortunate were to happen, the filmmaker had to pay at least a few million dollars.

After his interactions with Chen Zhao and Amon, Steven was certain that Amon was safe. Only then did he decide to be bold and perform actual filming.

“No. 3, get ready for Terry’s close-up. Battle on the sea, Scene 1, Take 1. Ready, action!”

“Ah…” Terry fell backward into the sea. Just then, Amon jumped out and bit Terry’s lower body, after which they disappeared into the water.

Everyone in the crew broke out in cold sweat. Is it really fine?

That was an enormous beast!

All the cameramen, both on the surface and underwater, filmed the scene.

Chen Zhao was also in the water, holding a camera. At the same time, he had to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

On the other hand, Steven stood on the deck, watching the captured shots.

“Okay, cut, that’s great.”

Terry also heard Steven’s voice from his earpiece. In the water, he patted Amon’s mouth.

Amon released him. By then, Terry was already more than thirty meters underwater and needed some time to return to the surface. Amon used his head to lift Terry so that he could return sooner.

In fact, before the filming, Terry had been super nervous as well. He had to work with an animal, after all.

After they began, he realized that he had been worried for nothing. In the end, Amon even helped him.
