Prompt (original, unmodified)
【Style】Epic Zodiac Action, Live-Action VFX, Extreme Environments of Celestial Starlight and Venomous Darkness, Gritty Battle-Worn Visual Quality, High-Speed Photography, Realistic Physical Destruction. 【Duration】15 seconds 【Scene】The center of a cursed zodiac battlefield with permanently altered terrain. On the left, shattered celestial ruins, broken stone arches, blue-gold constellation light, elevated sniper-like terraces, and cold wind sweeping through ancient structures; on the right, poisoned black rock, bubbling venom pools, hanging chains, ritual pillars, and thick rolling violet toxic mist. In the middle, a fractured dead zone filled with drifting dust, poison vapor, and cold star-lit haze. 【Characters (Humanized Description)】 Sagittarius Champion: Wearing dark blue and gold celestial combat armor, lean and battle-hardened, with a sharp and resolute face, a hunter’s focused eyes, and glowing blue-gold constellation lines running across his body. Scorpio Champion: Wearing black-violet segmented execution armor, pale and predatory, with a cold lethal face, low stalking posture, and toxic purple cracks glowing through the armor and flesh like living poison. [00:00-00:05] Shot 1: Zodiac Awakening and Environmental Reshaping. Wide-angle/Surrounding Shot. Two facing off. 【Sagittarius Side】The Sagittarius Champion crushes a tiny glowing zodiac orb in his hand, the Sagittarius symbol blazing inside, and blue-gold celestial force instantly forms a divine Astral Longbow. Constellation lines ignite across the shattered ruins behind him, the arches glow with cold starlight, and gusts of wind sweep dust and glowing particles through the elevated terraces. 【Scorpio Side】The Scorpio Champion crushes a tiny glowing zodiac orb in his hand, the Scorpio symbol burning inside, and black-violet toxic force instantly forms a massive Venom Tail Chain ending in a giant scorpion stinger blade. The poisoned ground beneath him cracks open, venom pools boil and hiss, hanging chains rise and rattle, and giant scorpion-shaped ritual marks spread across the black stone floor. [00:05-00:10] Shot 2: Celestial and Venom Close Quarters Combat. Rapid Action Cuts. Intense close-range physical combat. 【Action Design】The Scorpio Champion instantly lashes forward with the Venom Tail Chain, striking at high speed with whipping venom arcs. The Sagittarius Champion counters with rapid evasive movement, a near-point-blank astral shot, and defensive close-range bow motion. Scorpio follows with another brutal stinger strike aimed across the body, while Sagittarius twists aside and fires again at almost no distance. 【Physical Feedback】The venom chain strikes celestial force and broken stone, instantly triggering toxic vapor bursts, shattered rock fragments, metallic chain recoil, and blue-gold star
