Chapter 122: 【Huaxia History Series】The series that treats Blue Star people like Japanese invaders~ (6.8k combined)

Following Zhao Ming's click.

The scene on the large screen behind switched. What came into view was a magnificently decorated tent, representing the player's first-person perspective sitting in the center of the tent, looking at the Hu dancer in front, raising a wine cup and drinking it in one gulp.

Putting down the wine cup in hand, the maids kneeling on both sides serving immediately filled the cup.

The first-person perspective seemed to be enjoying the drink and started humming some tune.

At this time.

The sound of soldiers came from outside the tent:

"Report—!"

Then a scout covered in dust walked into the tent, knelt on the ground, and said to the first-person perspective:

"Great King! Han cavalry is attacking!"

"They are less than twenty miles from the camp!"

"The leader has a 'Huo' flag that I haven't seen before."

The first-person perspective pondered slightly:

"'Huo' flag?"

At this time, a person dressed as a civil official stepped forward and said:

"Great King, I heard that the Han Emperor recently appointed a young general named Huo Qubing, said to be Wei Qing's nephew, only seventeen or eighteen years old this year." Before he finished speaking, the first-person perspective laughed loudly:

"Seventeen or eighteen years old? A wet-behind-the-ears kid can be a general? Is the Han nation out of people?"

"Come here!"

"Gather all the warriors; today we will use Wei Qing's nephew to sacrifice the flag!"

Saying this, the first-person perspective stood up, opened his arms, and the maids on both sides hurriedly put armor on the first-person perspective.

The scene froze and ended.

Daxia Federation, Heavenly Killer Livestream.

Fang Ming's livestream room.

Looking at the ended "Exotic Customs" CG, Fang Ming became interested:

"This seems a bit interesting."

"There are maids and such serving. Ancient warfare is all close-quarters combat, right."

"Feels like it will be more exciting than 'WWII'."

The comments in the livestream room were also in agreement.

And at this time, Zhao Ming at the awards ceremony was still introducing.

As his finger clicked on the virtual screen in front of him again, Zhao Ming said:

"The game also has no restrictions, leaving players to choose their faction. Players can experience being a Huaxia monarch, or they can experience exotic customs. So, with all these, is it possible to experience the feeling of becoming a peerless general?"

"I can tell everyone here, yes."

"In addition to choosing identities, players can also choose to inhabit the bodies of NPCs."

As the voice fell.

The large screen at the awards ceremony began to play the scene. This time, the first-person perspective seemed much taller than others. Even though standing in the back, the gaze could see the tops of everyone's heads in front, as well as the eighteen fluttering banners.

Under each banner was a wine table, and everyone was drinking and laughing.

Suddenly.

A small soldier ran in with a panicked expression: "Report—!"

"Reporting to the Alliance Leader! General Yu fought Hua Xiong for one round and was beheaded under his horse!"

As the words fell.

Everyone present was shocked. The man in the first seat in the center of the venue looked a bit embarrassed, scanned the crowd, and said:

"Who dares to fight Hua Xiong?"

At this time.

The back in front of the first-person perspective, sitting at the wine table, stood up and said loudly:

"I have a top general, Pan Feng, holding a hundred-pound mountain-opening axe, with the courage of ten thousand men; he can definitely behead Hua Xiong!"

While speaking, the first-person perspective stepped forward, and the people around hurriedly dodged when they saw this.

Some small soldiers still had fearful expressions on their faces. The scene suddenly switched to a third-person perspective, and Blue Star netizens finally understood why those small soldiers had fearful expressions.

I saw that the strong man in heavy armor, with a nine-foot body standing like an iron tower, just the thickness of his arm caught up to the thighs of the small soldiers next to him, not to mention the hundred-pound mountain-opening axe on his back. Walking out, everyone had to dodge.

The scene switched back to the first-person perspective.

At this time, the first-person perspective had already walked to the center of the venue, his roar like thunder:

"The last general is willing to go!!!"

The scene froze and ended.

So... can you inhabit the body of this kind of general?

Hiss—Blue Star netizens looked at this strong man, inexplicably starting to imagine that if it were close-quarters combat, wouldn't swinging an axe sweep the whole field? Feels possible.

Zhao Ming's mouth curled slightly, then he spoke again:

"Of course."

"If players are not used to inhabiting the bodies of NPCs, they can also choose to enter the game with their own body data and choose an identity."

"If you can't be a general, then be a hero who fights for the world. We are all carbon-based life forms; who is afraid of whom?"

Zhao Ming clicked on the virtual screen in front of him again, and the large screen behind began to play.

In the scene.

The sunset dyed the sky red. The player's first-person perspective was on a city wall, with surrounding battle flags fluttering. The first-person perspective overlooked the black mass of soldiers lined up outside the city.

Dust flew in the distance, and the soldiers on the opposite side were still gathering continuously.

A young general on a white horse with a silver saddle, holding a long spear, led hundreds of black-armored cavalry to the front of the opposite soldiers. The first-person perspective looked at him from across the air.

Then the young general on the white horse with the silver saddle on the opposite side shot an arrow with a long bow.

A letter was attached to the arrow, hitting the flagpole in the center of the city tower.

Several soldiers hurriedly took down the letter and handed it over. The first-person perspective had only one faint sentence:

"Read."

The strategist beside him took it and read it, then said:

"Great King! Li Yuan's son, Li Shimin, threatens to compete with you!"

"He also said... if you don't dare, hang up the 'no-war' sign and give up the road."

The deputy general beside him was furious and drew his sword:

"Arrogant child!"

"Great King! The last general requests orders...!"

The player's first-person perspective raised his hand, stopping the deputy general's request, and said with a cold smile:

"Prepare the horses!"

"Point out five hundred elite soldiers; I will go myself!"

The scene froze and ended.

Zhao Ming smiled and said:

"That's basically it."

"Players can choose to become a monarch, or inhabit a general, or choose to enter with their own body data, using modern knowledge from Blue Star to compete with ancient heroes."

"Then someone will ask, fighting and killing is too boring; are there other ways to play?"

"Yes."

"Because in this game, with the variety of identities, you can even become a hooligan or a bully."

Zhao Ming raised his hand and clicked on the virtual screen in front of him again.

The large screen behind began to play.

What came into view was a bustling market, noisy with people, the peddlers' hawking one after another. The player's first-person perspective was walking unsteadily.

Followed by three or five hooligans, occupying a row of positions and just rushing around.

The surrounding common people dodged when they saw this. The first-person perspective walked and walked, casually picking up a pear from a stall and taking a bite, feeling the taste was not bad.

He called one of his subordinates to take a few more. The peddler looked anxious, just wanting to speak.

The first-person perspective's tone was a bit unhappy:

"Hmm?"

Scaring the peddler so he didn't dare to move again. The first-person perspective then laughed and nodded with satisfaction.

He took his subordinates and finished taking the pears and continued walking. Just as he was looking left and right, his feet suddenly bumped into something. The first-person perspective looked down and saw a little beggar.

He immediately kicked him, cursing:

"Little beggar, are you looking for death?!"

"Hmm?!"

Suddenly.

A roar.

"What are you doing?!"

The first-person perspective turned his head to look. A monk holding a broken bowl with half a steamed bun in it rushed over, directly pushed away the first-person perspective, and then hurriedly helped the little beggar up.

He handed the half steamed bun in the bowl to the little beggar.

The first-person perspective's tone was fierce:

"Stinky monk, are you also looking for death?!"

The monk squatting on the ground helping the little beggar looked up angrily, preparing to stand up.

The little beggar holding his stomach on the ground hurriedly grabbed the monk, his voice trembling:

"Chong... Brother Chongba... it was me who accidentally bumped into him, forget it..."

The scene froze and ended.

For a time, the entire awards ceremony was silent. Zhao Ming saw that everyone didn't react and spread his hands:

"How about it?"

【Emotion Value +32421】

【Emotion Value +22736】

【Emotion Value +237....】

Daxia Federation, Heavenly Killer Livestream.

Xu Jie's livestream room.

"Holy crap? You can even do this?"

An angle never imagined before, you can even be a hooligan?

Bullying the market?

Is this game this awesome???

A thousand identities?

Many Blue Star netizens became curious for a while about what identities there were.

And the friends in the livestream room also had wild imaginations.

【To be honest, since I'm already a hooligan, it wouldn't be too much for me to be a robber, right?】

【Robber? Robbing money or robbing sex?】

【Laugh to death, you can't take money out, what are you saying you're robbing?】

【It's all virtual, be bolder, raise an army and rebel.】

【Fool, raising an army and rebelling means choosing a general or a feudal lord, okay? If you choose a hooligan, you have to experience the fun of being a hooligan.】

【Makes sense, I haven't wanted to be the neighbor's uncle for a day or two, this hooligan identity...】

Awards ceremony side.

Feeling the emotion values coming in, Zhao Ming said:

"The above two are the two games that Polar Star Company will launch in the future."

"The 'World War I' series and the 'Huaxia History' series."

"After the awards ceremony ends, we will open the modules for these two games on the Polar Star official website. Players can get a head start on some information."

"And we will also irregularly update and upload CG materials."

"For specific details, please wait for the press conference in a week."

"If you want to cooperate, you can contact our company's staff through the contact information on the Polar Star official website. Of course... those of you here."

"Just exchange contact information directly."

Then Zhao Ming looked at the time and said:

"There are five minutes left."

"Next, let's return to our 'World War II: Rise of the Empire'."

"This time we are releasing the version plan for the game's future."

"And the versions and content to be updated in the second half of this year."

"First is the sequel to 'World War II: Rise of the Empire', 'Cold War Clouds'."

"After most players finish the immersive plot, the sequel's DLC will be released for players to experience the brand-new plot."

"And 'Cold War Clouds' mainly tells about the aftermath of World War II."

"All the crises triggered by the opposition of fundamental ideologies between countries."

"And the most terrifying among them is the 'Nuclear Cloud'."

Saying this, Zhao Ming clicked on the virtual screen in front of him, and the large screen behind began to play.

In the scene.

A sun slowly rose, getting brighter and brighter, and constantly expanding.

Only then did the Blue Star netizens watching realize this was not the sun. The subtitles that appeared immediately gave a hint.

【'Nuclear weapons' were weapons developed by Earth humans at the end of Earth's 'World War II'. When used for the first time,】

【the two detonated caused over 200,000 casualties.】

【While 'nuclear weapons' showed destructive power, they also promoted the end of World War II.】

【However... with the end of the war.】

【Conflicts of interest and historical grievances caused by ideological clashes between countries around the world triggered competition and cold war in all fields, from economy to military.】

【And in this situation, 'nuclear weapons', which could determine the direction of the war, became the top priority.】

【1945, 'Nuclear weapons': 1... 152...】

【1986, 'Nuclear weapons': 70300...】

In the scene, the number behind nuclear weapons started from 1 and rose continuously. In the 41 years from 1945 to 1986.

The number of nuclear weapons reached over 70,000.

On average... 4.6 "nuclear weapons" produced per day. With this data given.

It left the Blue Star people numb and dumbfounded.

Does this human on "Earth" have some kind of war gene?

Two caused 200,000 deaths...

One is 100,000 people, right?

How much is 100,000 people × 70,000?

Damn?

The nuclear bombs built in these 41 years, calculated at 100,000 deaths per bomb, can 70,000 bombs kill 7 billion people?!!!

Although it's impossible for each one to kill 100,000 people.

But calculated this way, it can still kill several billion people.

Are there that many people on "Earth"?

You have to know that there are only 14 billion people on Blue Star now. Earth's land area is much smaller than Blue Star's. If these "nuclear weapons" were all dropped, would it destroy the world?

The Blue Star netizens watching just had this thought flash through their minds.

The scene on the screen was already tense.

Leader figures kept switching, their expressions gradually becoming crazy:

"Destruction!"

"Mutual destruction!"

"If they dare, launch all the 'nuclear weapons' and let them be destroyed!"

"They don't dare to act; our 'nuclear weapons' are enough to let them be destroyed!"

"As long as they dare, then launch!"

"Destruction! Who is afraid of whom?!"

Mutual destruction.

Simple four characters, representing a kind of madness.

The scene kept switching between leaders of various countries clamoring for destruction and scenes of nuclear test sites. The whole world was covered in a shadow.

Automatically retaliating nuclear weapons were deployed all over the world.

Once someone acts first.

All nuclear weapons will be launched to ensure the other side is destroyed.

Everyone was suppressed on the edge of destruction.

The uncontrollability of humanity was vividly displayed at this moment.

The scene switched suddenly.

The scene given this time made Blue Star players familiar, because the flag hanging on the wall was the Soviet flag.

At this time, the alarm in the room was ringing continuously.

The prompt on the equipment represented an attack by the American Free Federation. The duty officer looked at the equipment prompt, his expression changing constantly. Once reported.

If automatic nuclear retaliation is triggered...

Whoosh!

A virtual scene emerged, with nuclear warheads being launched all over the world.

Then...

It was a scene of the whole world being nuked.

The scene cut back to the duty room where the alarm was ringing.

The duty Soviet officer had cold sweat seeping from his forehead. Blue Star netizens had solemn expressions.

They were also unconsciously drawn in, their hearts lifted.

In the scene.

The duty officer looked at the launch button on the equipment in front of him and slowly raised his hand.

Breathing—

Heavy breathing could be heard even amidst the piercing alarm.

Blue Star netizens' hearts tightened. Could it be...

The Blue Star streamers and friends watching the livestream, as well as the guests at the awards ceremony, all held their breath unconsciously, immersed and drawn in.

It was hard to imagine that such a plot was actually a game CG.

Watching the Soviet officer in the scene raise his hand and slowly reach toward the button.

Swish!

The scene disappeared suddenly.

Zhao Ming's smiling voice came:

"If you want to know what happens next... finish World War II first."

"Information on the sequel to 'World War II: Rise of the Empire', 'Cold War Clouds', will also be released one after another in the future."

"Those interested can go to the Polar Star official website to learn in advance~"

【Emotion Value +1324534】

【Emotion Value +1543432】

【Emotion Value +11313....】

As the voice fell, the confused Blue Star netizens came back to their senses. The guests at the awards ceremony below, even though they were elites and successful people from major federations, couldn't help but be noisy when facing Zhao Ming. This... you damn...

This was the ones with better manners.

At this time, it was unknown how many people were cursing online, and how many streamers were smashing tables.

Tian Sha Livestream, Fang Ming's livestream room.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Ahhhhhhh! Damn it, it's really damn!!!"

The table was hammered and made a mournful sound. Fang Ming grabbed his hair:

"This feeling of being cut off..."

"Really, this is definitely Old Thief Zhao!"

"No doubt!"

"Even if he looks so handsome! This black-hearted guy is definitely Old Thief Zhao!"

"There's just no such way to cut it!!!"

"Calm down, calm down... this guy can really piss people off!"

The Blue Star friends in the livestream room were also unable to hold on at this time.

Fang Ming was already famous for his sharp tongue and strength before, and half of his fans were haters, so one could imagine what kind of people his fans were.

And under such circumstances.

The haters rarely stood together with Fang Ming's true fans, cursing Zhao Ming on the screen in the livestream room...

On the news websites of major federations.

The entries about Polar Star Games and the two words Zhao Ming had already been exploded by the vast number of game players.

Below the awards ceremony scene.

Shen Qinghan pulled a smile, politely took the cards handed over by other forces, and couldn't help but feel overwhelmed looking at Zhao Ming on stage.

Stop it, aren't you afraid you won't be able to walk out?

This is too asking for a beating.

You didn't say three CGs and three pits before you came.

Not filling a single one, just digging pits???

No.

Must book a private plane back, can't land from the East Sea, don't get blocked...

Thinking.

Shen Qinghan hurriedly went to book a private plane landing in the neighboring city.

Fortunately, Zhao Ming on stage had already reached the end:

"The sequel is understood, let's return to the game."

"Currently, in 'World War II: Rise of the Empire', the 【Battle of Moscow】 has ended, and the war situation between the Empire and the Soviet Federation is deadlocked."

"Who is the winner is still unknown."

"However, from the 【Attack on Pearl Harbor】 incident, many players should know that any battle can affect the war situation of the whole world."

"So..."

Zhao Ming clicked on the virtual screen in front of him.

Two boxes appeared on the large screen behind him, which were 【Empire Faction】 and 【Federation Faction】.

Then these two buttons slowly differentiated and finally became.

【Empire Faction】 【Kingdom of Italy Faction】 【Vichy France Faction】 【Japan Faction】 【Hungary】...

【Soviet Federation Faction】 【British Federation Faction】 【French Federation Faction】 【American Free Federation Faction】 【Canadian Federation】...

The main factions and affiliated factions on both sides added up to twenty or thirty.

Zhao Ming said:

"We have also collected many players' opinions. Many players complained about the random region thing. For this reason, we have listened to the opinions and made optimization adjustments."

"At 12 o'clock tonight, a real-time update will be carried out."

"The original random faction will be changed to players choosing the faction they want. After choosing the faction, they will be randomly deployed to various regions."

"After all, if you can choose everything, you will feel boring more or less."

"The uncertainty of randomness is the greatest fun of the game."

"For example, the current force distribution of the 【British Federation】."

"【European Battlefield】 is the British Federation mainland, with the southern region of England defending against the Empire."

"【North African Battlefield】 is deployed in battle against the Empire."

"【Southeast Asian Battlefield】 is fighting against Japan."

"【Atlantic Battlefield】 is escorting supply fleets, fighting against the Empire's submarine forces."

"So when players choose to start with the 【British Federation】."

"They will start randomly in the above four regions."

"It greatly reduces randomness while ensuring the fun of exploration brought by a certain degree of uncertainty, and maybe the battle you participate in will affect the war situation of the whole world~"

"At the same time."

"The game will also open permanent battlefields such as street fighting, naval warfare, air warfare, jungle warfare, and tank warfare in the coming months."

"However, these are all linked to large-scale dungeons."

"It mainly intercepts a part of the large-scale dungeon map, then gathers enough people to start, and players fight in it."

"Currently, the permanent dungeon for the 【Battle of Moscow】 is already in production."

"And with the game's progress, after the national war dungeon 【Battle of Stalingrad】 goes online, the permanent dungeon for 【Street Fighting】 will also be opened."

"Please, vast number of players, look forward to it."

"Thank you."

After speaking, Zhao Ming bowed slightly and looked at the host.

The host came back to his senses and said:

"Okay, thank you Mr. Zhao Ming for bringing us..."

Slap!

Fang Ming turned off the "Anti-War Competition" livestream room. Zhao Ming was already down, so why keep watching.

However, thinking of the information obtained all night, Fang Ming opened the Polar Star official website while talking to the livestream room, and sure enough, it was updated:

"Old Thief Zhao finished speaking, let's take a look first."

Looking at the three brand-new modules on the official website, Fang Ming looked at them one by one:

"Three series of games."

"World War I series, Huaxia History series, and the current World War II series."

"The first two are early information; the game hasn't been released yet."

"The WWII series has been made into a sequel, but WWII hasn't ended yet, so naturally, you can't play it, so..."

"This guy dug a pit all night?!"

"The only thing you can play is still 'World War II: Rise of the Empire'?!"

"Damn!"

"The only thing I can know is that the update is at 12 o'clock tonight, right?"

"You can choose specific national factions; this is a good update. He just used the British Federation as an example. I'll choose the British Federation in a while to see where I can start."

Fang Ming said, feeling bored again, and opened the "Anti-War Competition" livestream.

Watched for a few minutes...

Alright, sure enough, not interested.

It had already reached the awards for the 【Movie】 category. Fang Ming, who had no interest, turned off the "Anti-War Competition" awards livestream again and opened the Federation Headlines.

Suddenly happy.

"Good guy, the internet is full of people cursing Old Thief Zhao."

"Let me see..."

"People have already started forming groups?"

"Really squatting?"

Time passed bit by bit, and soon it was twelve o'clock at night.

An update prompt popped up in the game.

Fang Ming immediately switched back to the game and updated it directly. A few seconds later, the game interface popped up with an update completion prompt. Fang Ming clicked on the 【Immersive Plot】 mode.

After clicking, 【Empire Faction】 and 【Federation Faction】 prompts popped up.

After choosing 【Federation Faction】, a list of federation countries was listed below. Fang Ming directly chose 【British Federation】, and then the screen flashed.

Entered the game directly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The moment the sound of gunfire rang in his ears, Fang Ming immediately lay down and said to the livestream room:

"Started on the battlefield?"

"Where is this?"

Fang Ming's gaze scanned the surrounding soldiers, who were also British Federation faces, but there were many Asian faces. This shouldn't be the British Federation mainland.

Fang Ming looked while loading the rifle in his hand.

Just scanning around, suddenly rang:

Ding-a-ling! Ding-a-ling!

The sound of a bicycle bell. The British Federation soldiers beside him suddenly cursed, then ran away like crazy. Fang Ming was stunned and subconsciously rushed out with them.

But while rushing out, he looked back.

Wanted to see what the hell it was...

Just saw a Japanese dwarf soldier wearing khaki military uniform, stepping on a bicycle and rushing out from under the dirt slope, rushing toward them, shouting something "Banzai" in his mouth...

Fang Ming had some doubts in his eyes. What's there to be afraid of?

Stopped his steps, turned around, raised his gun, and aimed at the Japanese soldier riding a bicycle and rushing over. The distance between the two sides was less than ten meters.

Fang Ming even had the confidence to hit the center of the eyebrows with one shot.

Just at this time...

Boom—!!!!!!

The flames of the explosion swept open, filling Fang Ming's entire perspective.

The screen went black.

Swish!

Back to the game main interface, Fang Ming was still maintaining the posture of holding the gun, not having come back to his senses.

The air was silent for a while.

"Holy crap? Ghost!"

"What the hell is this?"

"How did I die?"

Fang Ming was numb. What the hell is this, how can people explode?

"No! I'll open another round!" ===== CHAPTER 123 =====

"How did I die?"

Fang Ming was stunned. What the hell was this? How could a person just explode?

"No way! I'm starting another round!"
