Chapter 49: The answer to

~6 min read 1,189 words

The game is divided into "Immersive Story" mode, "Normandy Landings" battlefield, and "Multiplayer Cooperative Story" mode.

Because the "Immersive Story" mode requires constant redemption of data from the "Earth Database," the emotional value collected, while significant, has never had much surplus, and a portion must be kept in reserve.

This is to prepare for potential rapid game progression or unexpected events.

As for the "Multiplayer Cooperative Story" mode, due to the entry threshold requiring the rank of Second Lieutenant, Zhao Ming invested the least amount of emotional value into data and plot for it in the early stages.

Now, with the "Normandy Landings" battlefield update, more people are playing.

In the future, as more players meet the medal requirements and are promoted to Second Lieutenant, Zhao Ming has prepared some plots in advance, ready to be deployed after the "Battle of Britain" and the national war instance "Blitzkrieg Poland."

Moreover, players are currently immersed in the story, discussing the "Battle of Britain," and their attention is not focused on the "Multiplayer Cooperative Story" mode.

There is still plenty of time to prepare.

As for the separate instance requested by the Northern Army, the data required to construct the "Battle of Lake Changjin," "Crossing the Chishui River Four Times," and "Blue of the Republic" consumes a great deal of emotional value.

Therefore, Zhao Ming plans to first create a small-scale instance to test the results.

"The Bloody Battle of Samso-ri" is one of them.

It only provides the terrain of the combat zone between the two sides, with no other background, only one plot order: proceed to Samso-ri and cut off the retreat of the American Liberty Federation's 9th Corps.

Isn't the difficulty not high enough?

Now the battlefield map is given to you, the mission order is given to you, and all you have to do is execute the order.

Go find a way to clear the level.

Zhao Ming estimates that this instance will thoroughly brutalize the troops of the Great Xia Federation.

There is simply no shortcut to take.

No vehicles, no roads, only mountain after mountain.

Minus 30 degrees at night, trekking over mountains and ridges.

14 hours without rest, a 72-kilometer forced march, only then arriving at Samso-ri five minutes ahead of the enemy.

The answer is here.

But even if told, they might not believe it.

It challenges physiological limits too much.

Not to mention that in the modern history of the Blue Star, there has never been such a case of a forced march, and even less so in ancient times.

Without experiencing it personally, no one will believe it.

Zhao Ming intends to release the answer only after brutalizing a large number of Great Xia Federation troops; in this way, emotional value will also be substantial.

Brutalize them first to gain a large amount of emotional value.

Then give the answer.

Continue to gain a large amount of emotional value, make other instances, and repeat this cycle.

Achieving a perfect cycle within the Great Xia Federation.

Hmm, perfect!

Shen Qinghan, having finished listening to Zhao Ming, put down the data and stood up, saying:

"Fine, let's do that."

"I'll tell the Northern Army later to let them prepare well."

"As for the servers, do we need to increase them?"

"Currently, this game is starting to gain popularity in other federations as well; it's estimated it will explode before long."

Although it can be considered exploded now.

But it is only within the Great Xia Federation and has not yet reached its peak.

Zhao Ming thought for a moment and said:

"The maximum number of concurrent players in the game is over 2.7 million, and the servers are at the tens-of-millions level; opening 27 sessions of 100,000-player 'Battle of Britain' instances is more than enough."

"It is sufficient to support the 'Battle of Britain'."

"Let's add more when the 'Blitzkrieg Poland' national war instance is opened."

Shen Qinghan nodded:

"Fine, no problem."

"Whenever you need money, come to me."

Zhao Ming said:

"Okay."

Shen Qinghan turned around, waved her hand without looking back, and walked straight out.

Three days passed in a flash.

7:59 AM.

Sky Shark Live, Gaming Section.

Inside Bai Xiang's live stream room.

At this moment, Bai Xiang was waiting on the game interface, just waiting for the game update:

"Brothers, 1 minute left until the update."

"Brothers who want to queue with me, your hand speed needs to be fast."

"It is said that one instance can accommodate 100,000 people, and the rest will be deferred to the next instance."

"So there will be many 'Battle of Britain' story instances."

"And the Polar Star game official website also prompts that because of the players' operations or battles, the results will be different, and each 'Battle of Britain' instance will have some differences after it ends."

"After this 'Battle of Britain' multiplayer online story instance ends, players will be selected for rewards based on the situation of each instance."

"It is said that it directly promotes the military rank in the game."

"Now... holy crap?!"

"The update has started?!"

Looking at the pop-up update prompt box, Bai Xiang was stunned for a moment before reacting, and hurriedly chose to update.

However, in this era, internet speeds are basically that fast.

The update took a few seconds. When the prompt appeared in Bai Xiang's live stream room, he chose "Limited Time · Immersive Story Mode," and the sessions below had already reached 4. Bai Xiang clicked hurriedly:

"Damn!"

"In such a short time, 400,000... 500,000 people have entered?!"

There was a wave of mockery in the live stream room.

[Your mother? I thought you were fast, I already entered the 3rd session, and you're in the 5th?]

[Laughing to death, did any haters enter this session? Snipe him.]

[Good guy, didn't die at the hands of the Empire, going to die at the hands of our own people?]

[Haters don't count as our own people, run, little Xiangzi~]

[Charge, charge, charge, I'm going to fly a plane!]

And Bai Xiang had just clicked, and the sessions below changed from 4 to 5.

This meant that Bai Xiang had entered the 5th "Battle of Britain" story instance, which accommodates 100,000 players.

Entering the game.

The screen was pitch black. Bai Xiang tried to control his body but found he couldn't move.

The screen in front of him gradually lit up, displayed in the live stream room. This is...

Game CG?

A new one?!

At this moment.

Inside an office that fully displayed the majesty and murderous aura of the Empire, the perspective slowly moved to the desk in the center of the room.

A slightly bloated figure stood with their back to the perspective, facing the person at the desk:

"The British Federation has exposed everything at Dunkirk; they are extremely weak."

"They have even been reduced to the point of requisitioning fishing boats."

"I can assure you, Your Excellency the Führer."

"Only by using the power of the Imperial Air Force will we be enough to destroy all the resistance will and power of the British Federation." ===== CHAPTER 50 =====
