Build a gaming empire from scratch

Chapter 682 Overwhelmed
"The next piece of news comes from the [Hunter] hunting ground outside the metropolis playground."

"But before that—"

Ah Zhen continued to broadcast the news, and the audience had figured out the logic of this episode:

"I know! Commercial time right?!"

"One piece of news and one piece of advertisement, I have never seen such an outrageous thing when I grow up so big!"

"In reality, I have to report you!"

……

Of course, complaining and complaining can't stop the development of the program, and the commercials start playing again——

The format of this advertisement is still very familiar to everyone. It is the same as when Night City was first released. It is also a travel promotional video.

——Fortunately, it’s not something I’ve seen before, but a brand new piece of material.

Because this advertisement is really surprising——

"Wait, this ad should be serious, right?"

……

A large amount of new content made the players overwhelmed, almost screaming with excitement throughout the process.

"It feels like being inspired by a hunting contest, and really started to engage in a hunter war?"

Even if you ignore overseas users' curiosity about Xia Jing and only consider domestic users, Yunmeng has a full 2 million Xia Jing users. How can you not be interested in the capital of your own country?
Ever since the airship flew over Xia Jing for a glimpse that day, countless people have been looking forward to the completion of this virtual city.

"[The King of Cards] and [Sparrow God] are in full swing..."

And now, Yunmeng finally announced that [Virtual Xiajing] will open soon!
Starting next week, "traveling to Xiajing" will become an extremely easy task.

"Extraordinary battlefield? Unprecedented? Never before! What a fart! Have you experienced every kind?"

……

"July 12th

The screen freezes, and two lines of characters jump out——

"My Super Meteor Hammer is already hungry and thirsty!"

They didn't realize a serious problem until after watching the whole content and the show ended:

Extraordinary battlefield, see you there! "

"Is this a spoof? 3 million? How could it be so fast!"

"Finally, the organizer of the event solemnly declares: Participants are strictly prohibited from carrying hot weapons. Once found, they will be confiscated immediately."

Before the news was over, the players complained:
"[Once found, confiscated immediately], which means: As long as it is not found, then there is no problem."

"Super stamina, sensory acceleration, arc bullets, combat induction!"

……

"That's all for the news about the hunting ground, and then enter an advertisement."

The commercial is over, and we return to the studio again.

Keeping the rhythm of one piece of news and one advertisement, the "Metropolis News" is still going on:
"Next, enter an advertisement..."

""Battlefield"!"

The opening of [Virtual Xiajing] will provide a "low cost" and "no hassle" way to realize your dreams.

"Not only are the bonuses extremely generous, but the top three can also get a permanent membership card of Seaside Paradise, which allows them to enjoy the highest standard of courtesy for life."

The elders tend to have a stronger desire for the capital than the young.

In addition, the new activities of each game are produced with the hard work of each project team. It is a pity that they are only open for one week.

So the ad starts again.

"Whether it is the area occupied or the scale of investment, the seaside park is the largest in recent years."

"Is there no clue at all? Or is that green fluorescent liquid a clue? Is the murderer a drug lord? A pharmacist? A chemical expert?"

"Nonsense, the question is... what activity? Chasing the murderer in the wilderness?"

So in the end, the "seven days" was not mentioned again, and they were all pushed out in one go in the name of "New Year's Eve activities".

Ah Qiang calmly continued to broadcast the next piece of news:
"The large-scale seaside park in Night City has been completed and will open soon."

"Join the game now and become a real superhero!"

……

"The only thing to note is: the event organizer is not responsible for player insurance. All players who are going to participate in the competition are requested to purchase insurance by themselves."

The discussion had just begun, and with the start of the commercial, it quickly subsided.

"The gunfight dream of [-] million players!"

"The gunfight dream of [-] million players? I'll go, don't tell me, it's really possible!"

Taking advantage of the director's efforts to cut commercials, the audience began to guess what this news meant:
"Don't ask, the new event of "Hunter: Call of the Wild"!"

"Experts speculate that they may have ingested some kind of hallucinogenic fungus by mistake."

"In the past week, eight hunters have died, and the fatal injuries were all caused by sharp weapons."

"Every hunter who died was an experienced, strong, first-class strongman. Judging from the nearby traces, they all fought and fought tenaciously with the enemy in the jungle after being attacked."

"There is no threshold for the competition. All residents of the three cities, as long as they own a car, are free to sign up for the competition!"

When many people saw this news, the first thing they thought of was not themselves, but the elders in the family.

Some unidentified liquid that has not yet dried up and glows green in the dark.

In fact, this advertisement has a lot of slots:
"What do you mean? Not only are we playing "Battlefield", but your NPCs are also playing "Battlefield"?"

"To celebrate the opening, the park will unite the three cities of Metropolis, Night City, and Xiajing to organize a large-scale car racing competition across the three cities!"

"Experience the extraordinary battlefield like never before!"

"A new mode will be launched soon - Extraordinary Battlefield!"

"The program group hereby reminds all viewers: Please don't eat any fungi you don't know."

"Hot weapons are banned, which means that cold weapons are allowed? This is great! Now [Death Drag Race], who still uses small pistols!"

The commercial ended, but the audience didn't come back to their senses.

……

……

The content of the whole activity has been greatly reduced, and it is all big activities to be carried out starting next week.

"What are you waiting for?"

"Although I have experienced it, it is still very interesting to mix it all together! I really want to play it right away!"

This time it was Ah Qiang who broadcast the news:
"The [Hunter] hunting grounds on the outskirts of the metropolis have recently seen a series of vicious serial killings."

"Battlefield!"

"But unfortunately, none of them survived."

The camera cuts back to the studio, Ah Zhen added:
"In addition, in the past week, hunters have continuously claimed that they have seen unicorns, centaurs, winged lions and other fantasy animals in the hunting grounds."

After the employees' "remonstrance" (referring to threatening Lin You in the virtual world: "Boss, if you don't change your name, I'll kill you here!"), Lin You took back the [New Year's Day [-] Days] this soil must be lost Scum's name.

The barrage was messed up, but the program was not affected.

"Fashion Metropolis and Night City, the world's most popular real-time shooting game!"

"I don't understand! I don't understand!"

There are countless players looking forward to the early opening of [Virtual Xiajing].

Because the protagonist of the city promotional video this time is [Virtual Xia Jing].

The hunted corpses, the bloodstains everywhere, the traces of hunting and fighting in the jungle, the burned and carbonized trees, and——

"Don't be ridiculous, what are the residents of the three cities? If only NPCs participate in the competition, can Night City destroy the other two?"

……

"[Hunter] The staff of the hunting ground try to enter the hunting area to capture this mysterious murderer. If they fail to succeed within three days, they will consider issuing a reward to recruit powerful hunters into the hunting ground to [pursue] this mysterious murderer."

This issue of "Metropolis News" is undoubtedly the most explosive issue.

"The new season of "Light Yu"..."

Following Ah Qiang's broadcast, the video materials were also displayed one by one:

It's only Wednesday.

And all this activity, this new content that keeps them pumping and hungry, won't start until next Monday at the earliest.

In the middle, there are still 4 full days.

Rounded up, it is approximately equal to 12 years.
