Build a gaming empire from scratch

The background music that had been ringing in my ears suddenly changed.

The originally grand, tragic and passionate tune gradually became simple, and the complicated instrument sounds and reverberation disappeared unconsciously, leaving only the grand aria in the end.

It's a gorgeous lament about the end times.

Title: "Soundtrack · Doom · 0013 (0825)"

This is not an official song name, because it also comes from Yunmeng's music creation department. The meaning of the name is: this song is used for the soundtrack, the theme is doomsday, the number is 0013, and it was entered into the database on August 8.

In fact, there are more than 30 pieces of music with the theme of "Doomsday" in Yunmeng's soundtrack library, which can be used at any time.

Lin You lacked musical talent, so he paid special attention to this aspect of work from the very beginning, investing a lot of money and manpower to build Yunmeng's music copyright library early.

With this move, not only did music not become Yunmeng's shortcoming, but it was repeatedly praised by players.

—Of course, not in the current situation.

Players who are currently on Dinosaur Island, when they hear this background music, not only are they not in the mood to praise, they even want to pull the soundtrack artist out to worship the sky.

Because just listening to this music, everyone realized: I am going to die!

Their premonition was very accurate. Xiang Liu's body was exhausted to the extreme, and blood started to spurt from nine mouths at the same time.

From the farthest shoreline of the island, all the vibrating currents and flames began to roll backwards into the churning mass of energy.

Infinite streams of water and countless flames converged one after another.

But the volume of this group of energy has not increased, but is shrinking!

It's like endless matter, compressed to a single point by this terrifying pulsation.

Compress and compress until you hit the limit, and—

It exploded soundlessly.

It was like a supernova exploding before your eyes.

Endless rays of light shot out, and all the lives bathed in this light were destroyed in an instant and turned into dust.

From near to far, the players lost their lives one after another, but their consciousness was dragged into the sky, and they watched this grand destruction from the best VIP viewing position.

This is an extremely spectacular visual spectacle.

It is also the destruction of Dinosaur Island.

The dazzling light completely enveloped the entire island, and the players watched this amazing "cutscene" with ideology.

Just when Super Tomato thought he would return to the resurrection point to be reborn, he suddenly felt a powerful force pulling himself down from the sky.

Then he really started to fall very fast.

"Boom!"

Almost in the blink of an eye, he plummeted to the ground.

Caught off guard, Super Tomato staggered and almost fell to the ground.

He took a step to the left reflexively, trying to adjust his center of gravity, but his left foot went straight to the ground!
When he stepped on the ground, he fell to the left. He quickly stretched out his arms to support him, while looking at his feet, looking for the reason for the ground.

But the moment he saw it clearly, he was completely dumbfounded——

There is nothing on the left!

There is only one huge rift valley as deep as [-] meters!

"!!"

Super Tomato quickly threw out its claws and grabbed the edge of the rift, so it didn't fall down.

After quickly climbing up the rift, Super Tomato observed carefully and found that the rift was astonishingly large——

From the place where the explosion occurred, it has spread to the farthest end of the line of sight, and the farther away from the explosion point, the wider the rift.

He took a deep breath, and finally had the time to sort out the situation:
First of all, he was resurrected in situ.

It's not just him, looking around, all the people who died in the previous big explosion are now resurrected in place, looking forward in surprise.

That was the very center of the explosion, where Xiang Liu should have been.

This is also the second big problem:
Now there is only a bottomless pit left, and on the edge of this pit, there are one after another huge rifts, all of which spread from the center of the explosion to the end of the line of sight.

Super Tomatoes has a dire guess: These rifts may have completely split Dinosaur Island.

But this is not the most urgent problem.

The most urgent question is——

Xiang Liu is gone.

Not a single hair or scale was left for them.

"???"

"Where's my material?"

Super Tomato turned his head abruptly and looked in the direction of the corpse of the melting mountain dragon in the distance, but the melting mountain dragon that was lying there had disappeared now.

"???"

"Where's my BOSS? Where's a BOSS my age?"

"Where's the grandpa's booty?"

……

Everyone was stunned.

Look forward, look back, and run to the big pit in disbelief, trying to find clues.

But beams of light that fell from the sky interrupted their movements.

"This scene seems a bit familiar..." On the other side of Super Tomato, on the other side of the giant crater, Xia Yi was fascinated by the beams of light.

"When Dinosaur Island landed on the beach?" Shuihua also remembered that scene.

At that time, the system also awarded achievement trophies to a large number of players at the same time.

"It should be the same this time, right?"

The beam of light dissipated slowly, and indeed achievement trophies appeared in front of everyone.

Shuihua held up the trophy in front of her, and saw a scene of a gold-casting, melting mountain dragon and Xiangliu controlling flames and fighting against flowing water.

The achievement on the base is named——

[Dinosaur Island Destroyer]
"???"

"Dinosaur Island Destroyer?" Shuihua looked around.

This battlefield has been completely torn apart by a huge deep pit and 11 wide rift valleys. If it is not close to the center, it is impossible to cross the rift valley even with claws.

It is not difficult to imagine that the entire island may be torn into 12 parts by the rift.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is destroyed.

but……

"Isn't Xiangliu the one who destroyed Dinosaur Island? What's none of our business?" Shuihua felt annoyed.

"Maybe, if we don't come to encircle him, he won't blow up the island either?"

Lin Shun walked over from not far away.

He doesn't care much about these false names, what he cares about is: Where can I find the material?Can weapons be upgraded?
"Excessive words! It's obviously Lin You's bad taste!"

Shui Hua put away the achievement trophy, and walked towards the huge pit with Lin Shun, wanting to see if there were any remaining materials, or other clues.

After only a few steps, Shui Hua saw a red glowing object in the soil.

She ran over to pick it up curiously, and wiped off the muddy water on the surface with her hands without hesitation.

After that, a crimson prismatic crystal appeared in her hand.

The system showed her the name of this gem——

【Level [-] Weapon Upgrade Material · Fire】

Shuihua's eyes widened instantly, full of surprise, subconsciously looked at his feet, then looked left and right and searched the surrounding ground, trying to find if there were any other gemstones of the same kind.

"What are you looking for?" Lin Shun asked strangely.

Shuihua waved his hand and threw the ruby ​​to him.

Two seconds later, Lin Shun also bent his shoulders and started hunting for treasure in the muddy water.

One minute later, Xia Yi and team members also joined the ranks of the treasure hunt.

And it soon paid off—

"Found it!" Qianhe raised a green gemstone in his hand.

Shui Hua looked over curiously, and found that it was [level [-] weapon upgrade material · poison].

So everyone searched harder.

……

"Look what I found?!"

"Level [-] water armor upgrade material! Good job, big profit!"

"Grandfather is graduating today!"

The happy voices of other players came from not far away.

Obviously, everyone discovered this little secret and started treasure hunting one after another.

"So, Xiang Liu himself was blown to pieces by the explosion, and all the core upgrade materials were turned into gems and scattered in the dirt?"

"But how big is the scattered area?"

"Just around the battlefield? Or on a larger scale? Will it be the entire island?"

"Are there any living monsters on the island? If so, will they eat the gems? What will happen if they eat them?"

Super Tomato didn't rush to find the strengthening gems, but while making guesses, it finally reached the edge of the giant pit.

The moment he saw the bottom of the giant pit clearly, he froze in place:

"what is that?"

——At the very center of the huge crater, a pitch-black crack was wrapped in the irregular fragments produced by the shattering of space.

The light is constantly refracted on the fragments, making it look dazzling from a distance, gorgeous and dangerous.
