The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 243 What NPC? This is my master! (asking for monthly tickets)
"What? Is this the end?"

"An invasion of monsters from another world? So sudden?"

"What a sudden move! It was obviously arranged by Xu Meng!"

"What are you guys still talking about? New game! New game!"

"Not only that! There's new hardware!"

"This is too scary! It's only been a few months? There are new games and new hardware!"

"That's how it should be! This is the speed at which dreams should be built!!"

"What are you talking about? Follow me and kill me!"

……

The old players of Dream Building, whether they are players of the Fantasy game suite or players using PC games, quickly accepted this sudden situation, drew their weapons and rushed to kill!

Great sword, double swords, bow and arrow, spear, giant axe, giant hammer, shield sword, Guandao...

Weapons of all kinds filled the central square.

They are all cold weapons.

Without giving it much thought, everyone chose the weapons they were interested in and rushed towards the herd.

Get ready to save the Sprawl, unlock medallions, trailers and new intel with enthusiasm.

However, when we reached the 800-meter mark of the central square, something unexpected happened.

The players of the Fantasy Game Suite rushed out without any pause.

But for players using PC, a system pop-up window appeared in front of them:

[The area ahead, let’s explore it later!]——
"???"

"Wardfa??"

"Are you fucking kidding me??"

"I'm already excited, and you're playing inch-stop with me now?"

……

PC players are complaining wildly.

Some people ran to the giant crocodile, the Styracosaurus and the fallen dragon to help the NPC fight them.

Some people ran to the bottom of the airship and shouted at Xu Meng on the deck, expressing their demands on the spot.

Compared to the passion of these old players, most of the netizens who came to watch the virtual city huddled in the central square in confusion, trying to stay as far away from the "primitives fighting monsters" area as possible.

They couldn't keep up with Xu Meng's pace at all.

I never expected things to develop in this direction.

In the eyes of most passers-by netizens, especially media professionals outside the gaming field, something as amazing as a virtual city should be unveiled in a serious and formal press conference.

At this press conference, Xu Meng should talk about the causes and consequences of the birth of this virtual city, the difficulties encountered, and how the difficulties were overcome.

Let me brag about how far ahead this virtual city is and how much greater its potential is than existing Internet platforms.

Next, whether it is announcing the company's IPO, accepting merchants to settle in, or launching membership-based digital service content...

These are practices that everyone can understand and are 100% sure to make a lot of money.

Many people have even written their manuscripts and are just waiting to attend the award ceremony, listen to Xu Meng's plan, fill in some content and then release them to the public.

——If you want to work less overtime, this operation is essential.

But now, with Xu Meng's unexpected move, they have no choice but to work overtime!
Moreover, the focus of writing the article inevitably has to mention the two keywords "dream building new games" and "dream building new hardware".

If you are not careful, a good news release will turn into a dream-building advertising article...

And Xu Meng obviously won't pay for these advertisements.

What makes them even more uncomfortable is that:

Even if you want to write a soft article, you have to have accurate information, right?
But according to the rules set by Xu Meng, when the big news will be announced depends on when the players kill all the monsters in the Sprawling City.

When will the players be able to complete it?
no one knows.

It may take only 1 hour or it may take 24 hours.

I'm afraid only Xu Meng can predict the exact time.

Any media outlet that is large or more concerned about its reputation has been made uncomfortable by Xu Meng.

Huodao thought about his scrapped manuscript, picked up a Guandao from the ground, and joined the player team to fight.

——Since I have to work overtime, I might as well play some games to get some materials.

……

As for the netizens who are just joining in the fun, their mentality is much better.

In the beginning, they were indeed a bit confused by the old players of Xu Meng and Zhumeng.

But they soon discovered that although those big monsters looked scary, they were actually very safe as long as they didn't get too close to them.

——These big scenes are basically an “interactive” CG animation.

It’s just that Xu Meng’s transition was so amazing that everyone ignored this point.

Now that they understood this, they immediately relaxed.

Ignoring the old players who were still fighting monsters, they visited the sprawling city on the spot.

The 800-meter area around the central square is insignificant compared to the area of ​​the entire city.

But it is a cyber city after all, and both the street scenery and the various shops along the street are completely different from the reality.

Especially now that it is night, the densely packed neon signs that almost fill the screen look quite interesting.

The only drawback is:

Because of the sudden monster invasion, the entire city sounded the air raid alarm and most of the shops on the street were closed.

The cars no longer appeared, and all the pedestrians hid.

Apart from the players, there was no NPC in sight on the street.

So after shopping for a while, they all went offline, planning to come back for a good shopping after the fight was over and the shops reopened.

As a result, the server pressure was reduced rapidly.

Xu Meng skillfully relaxed restrictions for the players, expanding their range of activities threefold in one go.

As a result, these players need to install another huge patch.

——Of course, you don’t have to log off specifically, you can just install it in the background while playing.

Thanks to this update, the number of players shouting below quickly became sparse until they disappeared completely.

Xu Meng then relaxed, sat on the edge of the deck, enjoying the night breeze and overlooking the entire city battlefield.

Looking down from a high vantage point, the sprawling city is a central radial city with a Bagua structure.

Herds of animals gathered from all directions and rushed towards the central city along the avenues.

Players' teams also met the attack on every avenue.

Judging from their aura, they don't intend to give in an inch.

But Xu Meng only gave them cold weapons, which can only enhance the physical attributes of some players but cannot turn them into supermen.

Coupled with lack of experience, the defense is actually moving backwards.

——A hundred or so players who can use golden hot weapons can only play a very small role in facing a large group of wild beasts.

Especially the howitzer was banned by Xu Meng.

But there is good news:
The NPC law enforcers of Sprawling City have already taken action.

NPCs with higher intelligence, freedom and powerful military power also step out of their homes and take action.

Xu Meng looked at the northern area of ​​the sprawling city.

There, a 251-story sky arena stands quietly.

All monsters that approached the tower - whether they were regular beasts two or three meters long, or giant monsters more than ten meters tall - would be quickly killed.

This abnormal situation quickly attracted the attention of the players.

General Long Chengfei led a small team and originally planned to take a small path to encircle and surround the enemy from behind, and defeat these brainless monsters with wisdom.

But as soon as he reached Youkexin Avenue, he saw a shirtless muscular man standing right in front of the charging rhino.

"Hey! Get out of the way!" General Long Chengfei kindly reminded.

But the tough guy didn't try to dodge at all, he just shouted, "Jian!"

Just fold your hands to block the charging rhino's horn.

After being pushed by the enraged rhinoceros and leaving a two or three meter long trail on the ground, he actually managed to stop the rhinoceros!

"Brilliant!"

General Long Chengfei liked this kind of macho behavior the most and immediately praised loudly.

But this hunk's performance is not over yet.

He held the rhino's horn with both hands and shouted again:
"hard!"

A strong aura suddenly burst out from him.

Move forward sideways, lower your waist and hips, exhale and make a sound!
Right in front of Longcheng Feijiang and his team members, this strong man gave the four-meter-long rhino a wild shoulder throw!

The rhino weighing nearly 8 tons was thrown into the air and then fell to the ground with a loud bang.

General Long Chengfei could almost feel the vibration under his feet.

His pupils dilated and he was stunned!
After that, he didn't even care about the team's command. He rushed over in two steps, knelt on one knee with his fists clasped, and shouted:
"Master!"
