Chapter 1148 A favor
The film crew was already lamenting how things were falling apart. It was not just Lex who was causing problems, though he was at the forefront of that list, doing whatever he pleased without any regard for the mental health of the film crew. There were dozens of immensely powerful contestants who were creating problems, and without the security team to keep everything in check they were struggling to keep the show running.
Then Lex appeared right in the middle of their meeting, and nearly gave some of them a heart attack. Of course some, such as the green headed devil and an intern who had been staring at Lex’s performance with dreamy eyes, were rather happy with his sudden appearance.
That did not change the fact that when Lex asked to be pointed in the direction of the formation going home, none of them answered. Even the devil didn’t want to be the one to give Lex the bad news.
After a few moments of silence, Lex coughed, as if clearing his throat, and spoke again.
“Hi, I realize that this is an unannounced visit, and that it might not be exactly how you typically run your show. But I would really appreciate it if you guys helped me out.”
The film crew exchanged looks, debating with their eyes over who would be the one to tell Lex. They dared not even use their spirit sense, for who knew if he could tap into it and listen?
Ultimately, they all simultaneously looked towards the intern who had hearts for eyes as she looked at Lex.
Lex, too, looked towards her, causing her to both feel excited and panicked at the same time.
“Uh, I can show you the formation, but there’s a small, tiny problem with that,” she said, realizing the task had been dumped onto her. “You see, Dunya has entered a sort of lockdown right after you guys left. Even our director, and many of our show producers are still stuck on the planet. While we can send them transmissions, all teleportation is closed until further notice.”
Lex frowned, while Sim saw a faint glimmer of hope. He didn’t want to leave the show prematurely. Unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to be.
“I think I can find a solution to that,” said Lex after a few seconds. “Can you still film me from here, or do I need to return to Lover’s Island if I want to appear on the show again? I want to send a small message to someone through the show. I’m sure it’ll reach them.”
The film crew once again exchanged looks, unable to come to a decision. Lex honestly preferred if they shot from here.
He had noticed that his accumulating bad luck was linked to the planet, so once he left it, his bad luck disappeared. Technically, it probably wasn’t real bad luck, since Lex could not observe his actual luck. But technicality or not, he wanted to avoid it.
“We can film from here,” the intern eventually responded.
“Arlight, excellent. When can you start? The sooner we do this, the sooner we can get it over with.”
“Just give me a moment,” she said, as she pulled out a small device and began fidgeting with it until eventually Lex felt something observing him again.
“You’re going to be live in 3… 2…. 1… go!”
The countless people across the realm who were disappointed at Lex’s departure were suddenly surprised to see that he had returned to the show, though his surroundings looked odd.
“Hello everyone,” Lex said, waving at what he assumed was the camera. “There is a small situation. I need to return to Dunya, but due to various reasons I cannot. If someone on that planet can reach out to Fahad or Noor and request a one-way open channel for me to just get back onto that planet, I’d really appreciate it. I’m sure whatever reason you closed the planet for is very important, but if you could help me out I’d treat it as a personal favor. If not… then I guess I understand. Thanks anyway.”
If they did not open up Dunya, then he would have to go the long way around of once again sending the tavern there, or trying to connect it to the Inn. Both would take too much time, which is why he hoped to avoid it.
Lex signaled the intern to stop filming, and though she complied, she felt the whole thing was quite underwhelming. Was that it? She expected a lot more threatening and coercing. After all, with such an intimidating name such as-
Before she could complete the thought, one of the crew members jumped in the air in shock.
“We’re receiving a transmission from Dunya! They’ve granted a one-time teleportation permission. It expires in two minutes!”
Lex nodded, unsurprised. Although it cost him a favor, this was the benefit of knowing powerful and influential people. He just hoped that the favor wouldn’t come back to bite him in the behind.
“Thanks for the help everyone. You’ve got a really interesting show here. Good luck with everything.”
Lex waved at the rest of the crew as the intern led him and a disappointed and shocked Sim away.
Sim couldn’t decide which was more shocking, the fact that Dunya was under lockdown, or that the lockdown had been lifted at Lex’s request! Suddenly, it did not feel like a big deal that he was being forced to sell Lex a few feathers.
The two quickly arrived at the teleportation formation and stood inside of it. Lex waved at the intern, and then they were teleported away.
A few seconds later, Lex and Sim reappeared on Dunya in a teleportation-landing formation, with two familiar faces right in front.
Fahad and Noor both wore an amused smile as they looked at Lex.
“I have to say, I’ve never been contacted through an inter-galactic show before.”
“Next time, I’ll contact you via carrier pigeon. It’s a totally different experience.”
Fahad snorted, though he could not hide the amusement at the idea. Did an ordinary pigeon dare fly towards him?
“Although we opened the portal for you once, we won’t be able to do it again so you’ll have to spend some time here,” said Noor.
