Build a gaming empire from scratch

Chapter 969 Want to pan for gold?Then give you gold! (two in one)

Xia Yi was very confused.

But the current situation can no longer allow her to be in a daze.

The beast is already close at hand, and the players have also taken action.

Everyone asked their virtual partners to retreat one after another: not to mention the cat girl and Mo girl, especially the little stupid dog Milkshake.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Super Tomato didn't forget to look back at the lake.

He was afraid that Lin You had also set up traps in the lake—if a water monster suddenly rushed out of the lake to attack them in the middle of the fight, it would be too embarrassing!

Fortunately, Lin You seemed to have become a human being once, and the lake surface was still calm, without any ferocious underwater creatures emerging.

——Actually, Super Tomato blamed Lin You by mistake.

There are indeed water monsters in the water, but their number has not yet reached the standard.

After confirming the safety of the lake, several players threw the dog into the lake with a vigorous throw with the milkshake in their arms.

The only exception is [Hound].

The old hunters present not only did not let the hound retreat, but also directed the dog to charge up!

The hounds also roared without fear, rushing towards the beasts that were twice or even five times their size.

And their masters, spears in hand, followed closely behind!
——After the experienced hunter player entered the game, he immediately made a long weapon for himself. The ax is too short.

The old hunters took the lead in charging, and the other players also recovered from the shock, and rushed up after copying the guy.

It is impossible to be afraid of death!
It's not a big deal if people die, but if the log house save point that has just been built/not built is destroyed, that's a big problem!

A Yi also rushed up, but in fact he must not be optimistic about this battle.

too suddenly!

Everyone was not prepared at all.

If you know in advance, you must dig pits, make traps, process weapons, and set up defense lines first, instead of scattered in one piece, barbecue, chat, and build houses.

So while taking out the [Bather Girl Table Lamp], he shouted: "The dead are still resurrected here, if you can't be resurrected, come back from the birth point!"

"Next time we'll build the wall first!!"

Finally--

"Close your eyes!!!"

[Bather desk lamp] was thrown out by him forcefully.

"Duang!" He slammed heavily on the head of Super Tomato who rushed forward.

"I'll go!" Super Tomato didn't dare to look at it at all, and immediately hugged its head, closed its eyes and lay down on the ground.

——His birth point is here, and he has nothing to lose when he dies, so he has already prepared for infinite resurrection and participated in the battle, so he rushed to the front.

But he didn't want to be hit on the head by A Yi's "flash bomb", and the dazzling flash and loud noise exploded in his ears!

The herd of beasts nearby were stimulated one after another, but they didn't turn around and run away, but went on a rampage without losing their vision!
The mallet, which was bigger than a rhinoceros, was also stimulated, and its body tilted, and a big foot stepped hard on Super Tomato's face.

A Yi took back the [Bather Statue], and after recovering his vision, the first thing he saw was the streamer of resurrection and rebirth in the front of the crowd.

Super Tomatoes were sent away by him with a flashbang.

Ah Yi still didn't know what happened, but saw a small herd of beasts in front of them in chaos. Still nodding in satisfaction, he rushed up with the twin axes.

And when Super Tomato came back to life and opened his eyes again, he really wanted to hit A Yi with an ax from behind!

But considering the difficult situation, he endured it.

——After all, Pandora has no teammates to protect against injury.

In other directions, battles have also broken out - without cooperation, rashly using the [Bather Girl Table Lamp] is equivalent to killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred, so no one uses it indiscriminately.

It's just that the battle situation is almost the same as A Yi expected——

Without good preparations before the battle, it is impossible to resist this wave of attack.

The skilled old hunter could only deal with a few wolves now, facing the pack of poisonous wolves that far outnumbered him, he was already retreating steadily, and the hounds also lost one after another.

The agile and deadly Death Beast can kill a player with every pounce.

But the player was dying, and the wounds he cut on it were nothing compared to its size.

The mallet, which is bigger than the rhinoceros, is like entering the land of no one. It is attacked by the most players, but it still rushes into the camp unstoppably, and uses the huge bone hammer in front of its head to smash the built , The unbuilt wooden house crashed and collapsed, and the simple shelter was completely razed to the ground after being trampled by it.

More and more players are killed and injured, but fewer and fewer players can be resurrected to participate in the battle, so the disadvantages continue to expand.

When a mallet was knocked down by five hunter players, 11 spears were inserted into its body, and it fell there like a big hedgehog.

But at the same time, another mallet also destroyed the last cabin.

Ah Yi yelled for the last time: "Resurrect and come again!"

Then the death beast bit its head into its mouth and turned into a streamer.

The few remaining players at the scene finally accepted the reality that the defeat was a given, and they quit the game one after another.

The battle is over.

[Pandora jungle] VS [player]
In the first round, [Pandora Jungle] wins!
100 players were unprepared to face 200 mixed beasts, ushered in a tragic failure.

*
Shuihua stood among the beasts, blinked, and reached out to touch a passing beast.

The ferocious beast that had killed more than a dozen players stopped meekly in the face of Splash's palm, standing there and letting Splash touch it casually.

——From the beginning of the battle, the beasts took the initiative to avoid Splash. Only after Splash took the initiative to attack, the attacked beast would fight back.

After the water splashes come one after another, if you want to attack the beast again, the beast will hide.

She couldn't even catch up.

After running tired, she resigned herself to standing by the side and became a spectator.

It wasn't until now that the fight was over, the camp was completely destroyed, and the beasts were all quiet, she sighed and planned to tidy up.

After the beasts came to the lake and drank the water, they dispersed slowly.

Splash collects firewood again, lights a bonfire, raises a smoke column, and guides players who are still willing to come.

After the wild beasts had dispersed and the calm of the lake returned, Super Tomato landed in again.

——Then I was so frightened that I took three steps back!

Because what appeared in front of Super Tomato was a huge "leopard"!A death beast!

Right in front of you!One mouth can swallow his head!

And Super Tomato was just eaten to death by a death beast!
Although he didn't know if it was this one, he still panicked and almost turned around and ran away.

Fortunately, at this time, the Death Beast lay down again, revealing the spray behind it who was looking after the bonfire and the smoke column, and Super Tomato barely calmed down.

"Are you changing your subordinates now?" His tone was full of surprise and envy.

Shuihua looked back and saw Super Tomato, shook his head and said, "I just touched it, but I didn't expect it to drive away Poisonous Wolf, and I kept it by myself."

"Huh?" Super Tomato opened its mouth wide, speechless.

He couldn't think of anything else to say except outrageous.

"Since you're here, take care of the bonfire. I have to go offline, or Mom will be angry."

"Oh, okay, take a break." Super Tomato also knew that Shui Hua was still a senior in high school, so he took over the task without saying a word.

Shui Hua patted the Death God Beast on the head, walked to the simple shelter that had just been tidied up, and left offline.

But she disappeared, and the Reaper did not.

It turned its head slowly and looked at the Super Tomato by the fire.

Super Tomato was stunned for a moment, and his hands and feet gradually became stiff: "...Isn't it?"

Fortunately, the Death God Beast did not rush forward, but slowly retreated into the jungle.

"Huh... scare me to death." Super Tomato heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly started to pack up the scattered weapons, and made a crude shovel, ready to dig a pit.

Among the resurrected players in other places, some went offline to sleep, and some changed directions to explore, but most of them gathered again in the direction of the smoke column.

They are not satisfied!

In the second round, you must win!
Don't win and don't sleep!

The large number of viewers in several live broadcast rooms also came up one after another, and they must see them win before going to sleep.

Some even spoke on the spot to go to the scene for support.

Even Ivan, who was leading the hound, was seen in the live broadcast room, and some viewers suggested that he go play together.

But Ivan shook his head calmly and said, "The strong always walk alone! Weak... Only those who like to be lively will gather together."

Almost accidentally offending tens of millions of players, Ivan wisely chose to shut up and stop replying to the barrage.

He is now preparing to hunt a ferocious [Death Beast], and he needs to concentrate on it, so there is no problem if he doesn't speak.

As for why he hunted the death beast, the reason is also very simple——

"Since it is a highly simulated wilderness survival world, at least one of the eight challenges mentioned by Lin You is related to hunting, right?"

This is Ivan's guess about the content of the [challenge].

And hunting the "biggest and fiercest" beast is the verification of this guess.

Similar to Ivan's approach, there are not a few players who skip "camping, exploring", and "development" and go straight to the [challenge] goal.

Wang Pan is also trekking in the jungle now.

He easily dealt with the attack of the poisonous wolf.

For him, who has many years of experience in outdoor rock climbing, the difficulty is really not high - he has fought with wild wolves in real life, so how could he be afraid of a few wolves in the virtual world?
Even alien wolves are the same!
And his goal is also the magnificent giant tree in the distance.

However, Xia Yi called that tree "World Tree", while Wang Pan called it "Tree of Life".

In order to ensure that he was heading in the correct direction, every few hundred meters he would climb up the tallest tree around to look at the giant tree and correct his direction.

He did this, also based on his guess about [Challenge]——

"Climb to the top of a tree, or climb the highest mountain! Conquering the highest point in the world is probably one of the challenges!"

[King of the Ocean] Xu Shenghan, after completing the novice challenge, began to gather fans and water friends and headed for the distant coast.

His map information comes from forum players.

——Based on the shot of Xia Yi overlooking the earth when she fell from the sky, combined with the location of the "World Tree", someone gave a rough map between the player's landing area and the coastline.

Xu Shenghan's goal is to give full play to his shipbuilding skills again and build a large ship in Pandora.

Then, come on a grand round-the-world voyage!

"Around the new world, I can't think of a more extreme and grand challenge than this!"

Even Turner is on the move.

His idea is: “[Lin Baxiang]’s challenge, will there be a challenge like [Encounters of the Third Kind], [Encounters of the Fourth Kind], the first player to see an alien, even if Complete the challenge?"

Of course, he also knows that this possibility is a bit low - after all, it depends too much on luck.

If it is a goal of the level of "conquering the natives of the world", the possibility is much higher.

But the aliens must be found first anyway.

He is now following a river, looking for possible alien cities, villages, or tribes.

……

All are in action.

This night will be a sleepless night for countless players and netizens.

*
Early the next morning, before the alarm clock rang, Lin You was awakened by Xiaomeng's voice.

"Master, master! Wake up!"

"Ah~~~" Lin You yawned for a long time, squinted his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Last night, the number of people online at the same time in the virtual world broke the record! More than 5000 million people are online at the same time!"

"Ah? It's so lively!" Lin You immediately sobered up a lot.

This is almost equivalent to half of the world's users online at the same time!

"It's not enough! Not only the number of online users, the number of new users has also increased rapidly last night, and now it has exceeded 5 million. Mirage inventory has been emptied, and partners from all over the world are sending new orders— —The minimum number of reservations is twice that of before!”

The sale of the mirage mainframe encountered a bottleneck very early on.

After breaking through 5 million, the expansion speed was significantly slower.

Lin You was not surprised by this.

The best-selling smartphone in the world does not exceed 3 million sales a year, not to mention that the Mirage is not a necessity, and it has only been sold for more than half a year.

It's just that he understands it, but it doesn't mean he is satisfied.

——He is far from satisfied with the scale of users.

Therefore, he has been planning to "productivity" Mirage and formally invade the market share of traditional computers on a large scale.

But there is a problem here: Once he completely solves the technical problem and starts to take real action, it may not only be the share of computers that will be seized by then, but also "office buildings", "real estate", "business districts" and so on will have a huge impact field of.

So we have to be cautious.

But now, he just wants to have fun with his girlfriend because he has made public his relationship with his girlfriend, and he wants to have fun with the users. By the way, he also draws some attention away, so that he and the princess will not be missed by the media and netizens all the time.

But I didn't expect that it would hit the right angle and give Mirage a wave of promotions!

Lin You put on the headband, browsed through the key news and Internet topics compiled by Xiaomeng, as well as a complete timeline, and quickly sorted out the cause and effect of the whole incident.

He asked Xiaomeng in surprise: "They don't really think that anyone can complete the challenge, come to me and make a wish to get rich?"

"Xiaomeng doesn't know." Xiaomeng sat on the quilt in the posture of a duck, shaking her head cutely.

"If all the new orders are fulfilled and sold, how much can the number of users increase?"

"6 million." Xiaomeng gave Lin You's answer, and added, "This is just the demand from last night, maybe it can grow!"

"Not maybe, but definitely!" Lin You patted Xiaomeng's pink head, "It would be too wasteful not to hit 6.5 million for such a good opportunity! If the operation is good, maybe 7 million is possible! "

Xiao Meng blinked in confusion, "Master, what are you going to do?"

"What to do?" Lin You waved his hand, "Of course it's throwing money!"

"Don't they want to come to the virtual world to pan for gold?"

"Then I'll give them gold!"
