You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 345: "The Final Line of Defense" amazes players, sales soar, and Fan Langtao breaks the defense and adds more (2 in 1)

Second Lieutenant Miyagi's tone was awkward:
"Ah... well... when this JR train arrives in Osaka, all the passengers will be taken away by the Self-Defense Forces."

Qianjie's heart tightened.

That means the Osaka government is planning to abandon the person in this car, and it is unknown when he will be released.

Kensuke: "Lieutenant Miyagi, I'm with my wife now. Can you please help us?"

Miyagi: "Ah, this is a bit..."

Kensuke: "Don't forget, I can help you with your brother's case in the future."

Miyagi:

"Well... okay, after you get off the train, don't leave the station and take the subway transfer line directly to Tanimachi Yotchome.

That's the direction of "Castle Tower Park," where the evacuated citizens are concentrated. Therefore, it's currently a loophole in the Self-Defense Forces' defenses. All you have to do is pretend to be locals and sneak into the camp. I'll have the brothers there make an exception for you and Emi."

Kensuke thanked him and hung up the phone.

Just then, he saw a suspicious figure stealthily poking his head out of the restroom at the end of the carriage.

"who!"

Kensuke subconsciously rushed over and dragged the other person out of the bathroom.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I don't know anything..."

This was a thin man in a white coat. He kept covering his face with his hands and did not dare to look directly into Kensuke's eyes.

Kensuke flashed his police ID and said, "Tell me your name and occupation."

"Endo Kazuki... Arasaka Pharmaceutical's First Research Institute, a biochemical researcher."

Kensuke was shocked.

One of the Metropolitan Police Department's high-level secret missions he was assigned was to investigate the whereabouts of Arasaka Pharmaceutical's missing researchers, and he finally caught one!
"Tell me! What's the truth behind the production accident at the Science Park a few days ago?! Where are your other colleagues?"

Endo Kazuki's lips trembled, and his body shook uncontrollably:
"I don't know, I don't know anything, they're going to kill me..."

"Them? Who are they?"

Endo Kazuki looked towards the other side of the carriage fearfully and stopped talking.

Kensuke, with his police instinct, guessed that since the director of the pharmaceutical research institute, Yusaku Ueda, was also in the car, it meant that Ueda had threatened Endo.
The Arasaka family is very powerful and even has connections with the royal family. It is normal for Endo to be afraid.

"Listen, stay here and don't act rashly. You will be obligated to cooperate with the Metropolitan Police Department's search later."

Kensuke was about to turn around and leave when Endo Kazuki suddenly pleaded:
"Next stop, please let me go with you! I want to go to Castle Park too."

Kensuke turned around angrily and asked, "Did you eavesdrop on my phone call?"

"I'm sorry, I want to live too, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Kensuke clenched his fists, then slowly lowered them.

"Follow me when you get out of the station. Don't tell anyone."

……

An hour later, the Shinkansen train slowly pulled into Osaka Station.

The passengers leaned against the windows to watch.

The entire Osaka Station was empty and silent.

"What's going on? Where have all the people gone?"

Ueda Yusaku leaned against the window and frowned: "Why is there no one here?"

The door slowly opened, and the passengers on the bus looked around and got off with trepidation.

What awaits them is an unknown fate.

……

When the game live broadcast reached this point, G-chan stretched.

"Today's live broadcast ends here. Everyone is welcome to continue to support us tomorrow."

At this time, the popularity of the live broadcast room soared from less than 5 at the beginning to 30!
The audience was still not satisfied and kept scrolling through the live broadcast room:

"GKDGKD, I can't wait to see what they encounter in Osaka!"

"My game package arrived at noon and I've been playing it ever since. I have to say, it's so fun to dodge zombies and shoot guns at the same time. I've been playing for 14 hours straight so far."

"OMG, this game is absolutely my cup of tea! Zombies, biohazards, and behind-the-scenes conspiracies, it's all here! I can't stop playing it!"

“The character designs in the game are amazing! Each character has his or her own personality and story, which is very attractive!”

"That Arasaka councilman and Ueda Yusaku are so insidious! I can't help but wonder what they'll do next!"

"Damn it, the students are so jealous. I can only go back home for summer vacation to play."

After the live broadcast, the sales of the gun handle bundle of "The Last Line" began to rise.
On the real-time hardware display platform, the game bundle sold 50 copies on the first day.

The first-day sales of "Crossfire: Reverse War Heroes" reached 260 million, ranking first in the overall list.

"Wild Survivor: Redemption" sold 240 million copies on its first day, ranking second on the overall list.

Although Taoyuanxiang's game sales on the first day were dragged down by its autistic promotion and marketing, it still had strong momentum and its sales growth rate was no less than that of the previous two games.

The main works of the two major companies have been hotly discussed on the entire network due to the early publicity and promotion, and generally received high scores of more than 9 points on the game platform.

On the other hand, Taoyuan Township did not do much publicity and promotion, so the initial scores of "The End Defense" on major game platforms were very low, directly falling below the passing line of 6 points.

but!

The first day experience of "The Last Line" has caused players' ratings to rise significantly, and many players have given it a score of 8 or above on the game platform:
"The zombie designs in the game are so terrifying. Every time they appear, I can't help but scream, but I can't help but want to continue playing! This sense of tension and excitement is really exciting!"

"At first I thought it was just a train simulator. I admit I was superficial. Okay, Taoyuan Township!"

"The lighting, the special effects, the levels, the details... I feel like it's a masterpiece that's on par with similar international works!"

At the same time, in the rating area of ​​​​CrossFire: Reverse War Heroes, many negative reviews are also steadily increasing:
"I've only been playing for about a day, and honestly, there are some bugs and program errors in the game that have somewhat affected the gaming experience. I hope the official can optimize it."

"Indeed, in multiplayer mode, my character occasionally experiences a bug where he can't move. It seems to be a network problem, which causes me to be overturned by the enemy in a crucial round."

“Also, in some battle maps, characters will become stuck in the terrain and unable to move, requiring them to wait to respawn or exit the game.”

The office of Longteng Group.

Fan Langtao's hand holding the cup trembled slightly, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He had to admit that although the current sales of "Final Defense" were not as good as his own games, the quality of the game was really great. The sales growth rate and the praise rate made him a little overwhelmed again!

Where's the train police simulator? Is it okay if all the passengers have turned into zombies?!
And when faced with the dissatisfied and negative reviews of his own game, he felt even more apprehensive.

He stormed out to the project development group: "Everyone, postpone your vacation and continue working overtime as usual until the bugs in the game are completely fixed."

Soon, an employee expressed dissatisfaction in the group:
"Recently, the project team has been working in three shifts for a long time. Everyone's physical and mental strength has been pushed to their limits, which is exactly why the bug occurred...

If we continue to work like this, I'm afraid everyone's health and even their lives will be in danger."

Fan Langtao replied directly in the group: "If you don't want to do it, get out."

He sneered inwardly.

I've risked everything for this project. You only lose your life, but I lose my future!

In addition, Fan Langtao also had other evil thoughts.

There was no other way. He had suffered repeated setbacks in previous duels with Lu Yu, and he was almost developing PTSD!
He had to find a way to cause some damage!

He called Jiang Lei from the technical department over:
"Didn't you plant a lot of BUG backdoors when you hacked into Taoyuan Township's server last time? Find a way to activate them."

Jiang Lei frowned.

He had indeed left behind a series of Trojans before, but the last invasion was not very successful, and he didn't know whether this activation would be effective.

Jiang Lei: "Manager Fan, you need to think carefully. If we fail, it will actually create significant risks for Longteng Group's servers..."

Fan Langtao: "I've thought it through clearly and will do it right away."

After sending Jiang Lei away, Fan Langtao looked out the window and narrowed his eyes slightly:

"Lu Yu, now I'll show you what it means to kill you while you're sick!"

……

At the same time, in the rating section of Youyi's "Wilderness: Redemption", many negative reviews are also steadily increasing:

"I've only been playing for a day and have discovered that the game's economic system has serious inflation and balance issues. The pricing and acquisition methods of many supplies are very unreasonable, affecting the playability of the game."

"Indeed, the moment I opened the Krypton Gold Mall, I was stunned. Guns, horses, clothing, extra supply boxes, all the good stuff is basically not produced in the wild?"

"It's fine if you just throw some pretty cosmetic items in the store, but if you want to play comfortably, you not only have to buy RMB equipment, but also a monthly card and a seasonal battle pass. So, buying the game itself is just a ticket to battle?" "As expected of Youyi, they're crazy about money."

In the Youyi company office building, Shi Yi saw the signs of negative reviews on the Internet, frowned slightly, and asked Wu Liang:

“I’ve seen good reviews of new games in Taoyuan Township.

But we have these negative reviews. Is this normal? Should we adjust our charging strategy?

Wu Liang smiled and said:

"Boss Shi, don't worry at all, everything is under my control!
Think about it, in this flagship FPS showdown, you have to prove to the chairman that you are more suitable to helm the group's gaming business than her future son-in-law Lu Yu, so the revenue report must look better than Taoyuan Township's!

Now, the reason why players have opinions about paid content is that these props do not meet their requirements.

We just need to add some of the extra-dimensional tactile technology stolen from Taoyuan Township... oh no, borrowed from Taoyuan Township to these paid props, and it will be absolutely foolproof!"

Soon, Youyi Company announced that Youyi Park will launch the "Yi Dimension Tactile Rubber Suit".

The product promotional slogan reads:
"When you ride a horse in the game, the tactile technology of Yidiyuan can simulate the vibration and rhythm of the horse's gallop, allowing you to feel the excitement and pleasure of galloping across the grassland.

At the same time, Yidiyuan technology allows you to feel the temperature changes in the game, including ice and snow and scorching heat, enhancing the realism and immersion of the game.

Of course, the most important thing is that the game store will be selling [Town Tavern VIP Experience Coupon]

You can meet blond and blue-eyed western beauties on the second floor of the tavern in various western towns on the map.
By then, you will be able to experience the wonders of the two previous dimensional technologies at the same time..."

The player was shocked:

"Good fellow, the one in Taoyuan Township is called the Other Dimension, and your Youyi is called the Easy Dimension. You are really just copying the Sharingan."

"Is this second floor of yours decent?"

"If you say so, I'm going to place an order. I'm not going to the tavern, I just want to promote justice in the Western Desert."

……

The next day, G-chan continued to live broadcast "The Last Line".

When the broadcast started, the popularity of the live broadcast room reached 50 people.

In the current domestic game market, there are very few games that combine zombie themes and FPS themes, so everyone comes here to play.

When you start the game, the train stops at the platform of Osaka Station.

After the door opened, the passengers looked around cautiously and got off the bus slowly.

When Yusaku Ueda saw the empty station, he stamped his feet anxiously and ran to the front carriage.

Jiro Hanada and his daughter, along with members of the high school baseball club, got off the car together.

Misaki was like a frightened bird, tightly grabbing the corner of Shimazaki Kazuya's clothes. As her old father, Hanada Jiro snorted "Tsk" in disdain.

The train conductor, Junichi Fukuyama, left the platform accompanied by the conductor, Masayuki Ono.

Fushan was shocked when he saw many carriages filled with zombies with bared fangs and claws.

Chief Steward Ohno: "Well, this is the violent incident I told you about..."

Yusaku Ueda caught up:

"You're the conductor, right? Untie the locomotive right now and let's ride it to Tokyo!"

Fukuyama shook his head: "No, I received a notice and have to wait here for rescue from the Self-Defense Forces."

Ueda shouted angrily, "Don't count on the Self-Defense Forces!"

He pulled his business card out of his suit.

"I'm the management representative of Arasaka Science Park. I just spoke with Councilman Arasaka on the phone. All roads leading into Osaka are blocked. What does this mean? It means Osaka is being sealed off from within!"
Think about it, will those bastards in the city council allow outsiders like us who are at risk of infection to enter?
I seriously doubt the Self-Defense Forces' motives! But I heard there's a safety zone in Tokyo. Let's go to Tokyo!"

Fushan shook his head. "If that's the case, I'll take everyone with me! Let's go out and see what's going on."

"Pedantic!"

Ueda was so angry that he stamped his feet, but he had no choice but to follow.

……

The game's perspective switches back to Kitahara Kensuke, who leaves the platform with Emi following the crowd.

The waiting hall of the station was quite empty, with suitcases scattered all over the ground that had not been taken away in time, as if a chaotic retreat had just taken place here not long ago.

He soon came to a fork in the road.

One side leads to the exit, and the other side leads to the underground subway station.

The glass door of the subway entrance was closed.

"Although the subway line is blocked, there should still be a way to start the train..."

Kensuke made up his mind, left the crowd, and pulled Huimei towards the fork in the road.

Endo Kazuki followed stealthily from behind. Kensuke glanced at him, and he quickly said:
"I won't tell you anything. Let's go away secretly..."

After Kensuke smashed the entrance door with a fire hammer, Emi asked curiously:

"Why didn't we obey the instructions? Why did the man in the white coat say to leave secretly?"

Kensuke had no choice but to tell the truth: "Well, if we leave the station directly, we will most likely be isolated by the Self-Defense Forces. Lieutenant Miyagi has already made other arrangements. We can take the subway to the citizen evacuation camp in Castle Park."

Huimei was surprised and said, "In that case, I will tell the others and we will all go together."

Kensuke shouted angrily, "You don't have to tell them. It's impossible for such a large group of people to sneak into the camp easily. They will hinder us. We can only hope for the best now!"

Tears welled up in Huimei's eyes: "Kensuke, you've always only cared about yourself over the years, so our marriage can't continue."

At this point, the game pops up the plot options:

[Option 1: Knock Huimei unconscious, and the three of them go to the subway station]

[Option 2: Notify the others with Huimei and go to the subway station together]

Seeing these two options, the live broadcast room barrage generated a heated debate:
"Women like this are unreliable. In troubled times, why would they act like saints?"

"That's right, she gave the water to someone else and ruined the protagonist's escape plan. Host, knock her out and drag her away."

"The comment above is about how selfish people can't survive, even in the end times. Don't forget, without Hanada Jiro blocking the suit zombies, the protagonist couple would have been killed long ago."

"Indeed, no matter how apocalyptic it is, we still have to have humanity. Otherwise, what's the difference between us and zombies?"

"You two upstairs, you're the real talkers. When it comes to yourselves, you're probably more selfish than anyone else!"

G-chan raised her hand to stop the quarrel:

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. I've already made up my mind. Just because my wife is pretty and her bear is big, I'll listen to her."

The barrage of comments suddenly became happy: "No problem."

After making their choice, Kensuke and his wife together called out to the crowd and tried to persuade them to take the subway.

Yusaku Ueda saw Endo standing with Kensuke for some reason, and his heart skipped a beat.
Furthermore, he had doubts about the official moves in Osaka, so he quickly said:

"I think what the police officer said makes sense. Let's just take the subway."

However, someone in the crowd also shouted:

"What? You mean, we shouldn't trust the official arrangements, but trust a policeman who looks selfish and cowardly?"

The crowd quickly split into two groups.

Half of the people, including the conductor, decided to follow Kensuke's advice and take the subway.

The rest of the group, including Hanada and his daughter and the high school baseball team, decided to continue out.

"Mr. Kitahara, thank you so much for sharing the information."

Ueda Yusaku smiled and secretly glanced at Endo.

Kensuke noticed the other party's little trick and said, "Mr. Ueda, it seems that you also have something to share with me about Arasaka Science Park, right?"

Ueda laughed awkwardly twice and remained silent.

Game Tips:

[Destination Update: Please take the subway to reach Castle Park smoothly]

[Additional Objective: Ensure there are more than 100 surviving passengers upon reaching the castle tower. Target Reward: Extended Magazine x1]

The pitch-black entrance to the subway station was like the mouth of an abyss, and roars of monsters that looked neither human nor inhuman could be heard from time to time.

Kensuke swallowed hard, raised his pistol, and was the first to enter. The other passengers, supporting each other, slowly followed.
