The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 242: That's it? Try the surprise I prepared!
The blade of the saber stopped half a foot above Xu Meng's head and was blocked by an invisible shield.

Xun Fei, another "troublemaker" who was closest to her, also reacted the moment Zhu Mo drew her knife. He took a step forward and grabbed her wrist.

“Are you fucking crazy???”

This guy was just as surprised as the audience below the stage.

"Do you really treat this as a game?"

The brave sniper, Huanyue and others in the front row also stood up and almost rushed onto the stage.

It was just blocked below by an invisible wall of air.

A few people in the crowd took out their golden weapons during the chaos, but they soon discovered that the safety pins could not be turned on, and the weapons had completely turned into firewood sticks.

There was a lot of noise in the audience.

On the stage, Zhu Mo looked at the indifferent Xu Meng and felt a little awkward.

"Why don't you hide?"

Xu Meng looked at the knife that was still some distance from his forehead. He did not answer her question, but complained speechlessly: "Why are you cosplaying as Jing Ke here?"

Without waiting for her answer, he asked curiously, "I thought the cloth roll was a grenade at the end, why is it a knife?"

This girl has never done anything good in front of Xu Meng. She is full of bad intentions.

Now that you suddenly want to give me a gift, it would be strange if I can hold it in!

Xu Meng had been on guard against her.

"As for the grenade, it's not scary if you don't pull the bolt, but it will really explode when you pull the bolt..." Zhu Mo expressed his thoughts.

When she invited the Northwest Hammer King to join her yesterday, she was indeed planning to do something big.

Unfortunately, Li Liangcai was holding a sledgehammer and looked very reckless, but he shook his head after hearing her idea.

Not to mention joining, she was almost deleted by all her friends.

Li Liangcai's reaction poured cold water on Zhu Mo, and she angrily gave up the idea of ​​doing something big.

But he still wanted to scare Xu Meng, so the real purpose came out.

Unfortunately, Xu Meng didn't even blink, not to mention being frightened and stepping back.

"If I say I'm just joking with you and I won't really chop you, would you believe me?"

Xu Meng smiled slightly, "I believe it."

"But I have a surprise for you too."

"?" Zhu Mo's heart skipped a beat when he saw Xu Meng's sinister smile.

Before she could react, a heavy heartbeat sounded above her head.

The audience saw a transparent outline emerging in the air just above the podium.

The outline quickly became clear.

A giant beast as tall as a three-story building, with crocodile skin and a dinosaur body, broke out of its invisibility, opened its bloody mouth, and bit towards the podium!

Zhu Mo looked at the scary big mouth, his pupils dilated instantly and his hands and feet went weak!
He had no power to resist and was bitten by the monster!
Even the screams were stifled in the giant crocodile's mouth.

Xun Fei had fought close combat with giant beasts that were several hundred meters long, so he performed much better when facing monsters that were only ten meters long.

——Although he was also surprised, he immediately determined the attack range and accurately dodged the attack.

Xu Meng took two steps back, just brushing the monster's chin to avoid the attack.

——His original plan was actually to be eaten.

Then there will be a round of monster siege.

Then the first trailer of "Monster Hunter" was released to surprise players around the world.

The entire [Global Survival Competition] award ceremony is actually to provide the first round of publicity for the new project.

Zhu Mo just happened to run into the muzzle of the gun.

"Hahaha!" Xu Meng looked at the giant crocodile holding Zhu Mo's upper body in its big mouth and tilting its neck back, with Zhu Mo's legs still exposed and kicking wildly, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

He waved at Zhu Mo, who was still alive, and shouted out his farewell words with a strong sense of revenge -

"Surprise!!!"

"Hahahaha!"

Xun Fei tilted his neck back and watched the monster shake its neck, throwing the red ink in its mouth into the air. Then, as she screamed "Ahhhh", it opened its mouth wide and swallowed it in one gulp.

Looking at Xu Meng with a sunny smile on her face and the tattered podium, he felt a chill in his heart.

"Well, Boss Xu, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be going down first."

After saying goodbye, he wanted to stay away from Xu Meng, a high-risk person.

But the moment he turned around, he heard heavy drumbeats.

At first, he couldn't tell whether it was the sound of drums or the monster's heartbeat.

But soon, the drum beats became heavy and dense.

More musical instruments join in, enriching the layering of the drum beats.

With the majestic sound of the horn as the dividing line, the drum beats become more and more passionate!
He looked back.

After seeing the monster eat Zhu Mo, its front legs pointed downward and its entire body fell towards the podium.

A thick shadow covered the entire podium.

"Boom" a loud noise.

The podium was crushed to pieces and the central square shook violently.

Players hanging from trees and power lines swung wildly, then clattered and fell into the crowd below like dumplings.

"Roar--"

The giant crocodile faced the audience in front of the podium and let out a wild roar!
A strong wind is blowing in my face!

Players wearing motion sensing suits felt their bodies tighten, while players using PCs saw the entire screen filled with shaking wind effects.

The earth was shaking with the rumbling sound!
Outside the central square, something even bigger than a giant crocodile is breaking out of the ground!

A giant python with no end in sight swam across the central avenue, wrapped around a building full of neon lights, and swam in circles to the top floor.

A sharp hissing sounded in the sky, and a flying dragon with a wingspan of twenty meters broke through the clouds, casting a moving shadow on the crowd.

……

The entire central square was in chaos.

The netizens who came to join in the fun were completely confused.

While watching the award ceremony, the person receiving the award suddenly wanted to assassinate Xu Meng.

Xu Meng summoned a huge monster and ate the assassin in one bite.

Then the monster went crazy and destroyed the entire podium.

Before everyone could start to worry about whether Xu Meng was okay, more monsters of astonishing sizes appeared one after another, making it too much to watch!
The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded rapidly:
"As expected of Xu Meng, such a quick counterattack!" "Wait! Wasn't this monster called by Xu Meng? Why did he attack him too?"

"What's going on? What happened? Are monsters attacking the city?"

"Is Xu Meng dead?"

"Are you going to massacre the audience on the spot?"

"Uh... can't I?"

……

Logically speaking, it is not possible.

But Xu Meng often does things against the rules, which makes everyone unsure.

Fortunately, those large monsters were all in the outer circle of the central square and did not rush towards the players immediately.

Only the giant crocodile at the center of the podium seemed to pose a direct threat to the spectators.

But most of the players sitting in the front row are veteran players who use the Fantasy game suite.

They feel the strongest visual impact.

But they were also the calmest group of people in the entire central square.

——Everyone here has fought with giant beasts to some extent and witnessed more exaggerated and terrifying scenes.

Even though he is unarmed at this moment, he is not afraid at all.

The worst possible outcome is death!
As the music reached its climax, the monster leaped forward and pounced on the crowd.

From the players' perspective, it was like a mountain falling from above their heads!
Can't stop it, can't escape.

"Fuck you." Orange Juice complained weakly, ready to die.

But at the critical moment, a huge sword fell from the sky!

A super strong man who was nine feet tall, holding a two-meter-five-meter-long giant sword in both hands, instantly pierced the monster's mouth.

With a loud bang, the monster fell heavily under the huge impact force.

Smoke and dust are everywhere!

……

When the smoke and dust settled, the vision became clear again.

Everyone saw: the beast that was so invincible a second ago now had its upper and lower jaws pierced by a sword and was firmly nailed to the granite bricks of the square!

He struggled and wailed frantically, but couldn't get free.

The giant crocodile's experience seemed to stimulate the other three giant beasts, and they roared to the sky at the same time.

The giant python tightened its body, and the glass on the facade of the building shattered.

Even the reinforced concrete was twisted and deformed, and it was about to become a dangerous building in an instant.

The Styracosaurus stomped the ground violently, and the road broke into pieces.

The vehicles that had no time to avoid collided with each other, causing a violent explosion.

The roar of the flying dragon shattered the clouds, and it swooped down towards the crowd from the night sky!

There were cries of surprise from the crowd, and everyone tried to get out of the way.

At this moment, the shrill air raid sirens finally sounded in the city.

Behind the clouds that were shattered by the flying dragon, an airship appeared.

On the deck of the airship, the dragon-hunting crossbow vehicle fired a giant crossbow larger than a human, which easily pierced through the scales and shot into the body of the flying dragon.

More hunters like the big sword man just now emerged from the deck, stepping on the cables connected to the giant crossbow and rushing towards the flying dragon!
Several other people jumped directly from a height of 100 meters and headed straight for the Styracosaurus on the ground.

"What? Won't you fall to your death?"

"This scene looks familiar to me!"

"Give me a knife! I can do it too!"

"That's weird. Isn't the Sprawling City a cyber city? Why are all the primitives defending the city?"

……

The players in the front row were talking about it.

But before the complaints had subsided, another change occurred——

A flying dragon that covered the sky and the sun appeared from the horizon and rushed towards the nearby area quickly.

The earth rumbled again.

At the end of the sight, the herd of beasts is approaching rapidly!

The disappeared Xu Meng finally reappeared on the deck of the airship.

"Everyone!"

His voice reached everyone's ears easily.

"The [Global Survival Competition] award ceremony ends here!"

“Thank you all for coming!”

"Now there is an unexpected incident—"

"Monsters from another world have invaded the Sprawling City!"

"The Sprawling Metropolis City Management Council has issued an emergency mission—"

"【City Defense Battle】!"

"Hunting down all invading monsters within 24 hours will earn you the [Sprawling City Online Commemorative Badge]!"

"Hunting down all invading monsters within 12 hours will unlock the preview of the new Dream Building game!"

"Hunting down all invading monsters within 6 hours will unlock additional information on Dream Building's new hardware equipment!"

"Within 3 hours, hunt down all invading monsters. The 1000 players with the highest points will be eligible for the new game beta test in advance!"

The side decks of the airship opened one by one, and densely packed weapons were thrown out and fell towards the crowd.

"Now, hold your weapons tight! Fight off the monsters!"

"Become a hero of Sprawling City!"

"Finally, I have one more thing to say to you——"

Grand fireworks bloomed in the sky, and the colorful smoke formed eight big words.

Xu Meng stood on the deck of the airship with his arms outstretched, and said to everyone amid the surging music:

"Welcome to the Sprawling City!!!"
