Chapter 240: #240 - Countdown to the launch of the virtual city!

Dream Weaver's user base has already reached the tens of millions.

The Mirage Game Suite's user base has also surpassed 7 million.

At this scale, no one can control the actions of all players.

Even prediction is difficult.

Whether it was during the heyday of [Age of Madness] or now, with 《Ghoul!》 enjoying immense popularity, many players remain unmoved.

Some are organizing teams to tackle [Infernal Purgatory], improving their skills with their sights set on the World Championship.

Others are addicted to the more entertaining [War Zone], spending a lot of time in it every day, fighting and killing to release the stress accumulated in daily life.

Still others are single-mindedly researching items, wanting to break through the glass in Cyber ​​Cottage and rush into the Sprawl Metropolis.

Zhu Mo has already come into contact with the city's roads and was even hit by an NPC taxi.

Obviously, the city is almost finished.

However, Dream Weaver has been unwilling to say when it will be open.

This has led to Sprawl Metropolis becoming a tempting apple, luring a large number of players to rush into this area before Dream Weaver opens it.

With Zhu Mo as an example, everyone has started to strive for 10,000 kills with a single weapon, wanting to get the golden weapon given as an achievement.

The first to be grinded out was the Golden Grenade Launcher.

——That is, the weapon grinded out by Chen Zhi, the workhorse of the laboratory.

After all, this thing has enough lethality and does not require any skills.

After getting the golden grenade launcher, this group of explosion maniacs immediately ran to the Cyber ​​Cottage, set it up, and fired a shot.

But they miscalculated one thing—

The power of a grenade launcher exploding indoors far exceeded expectations!

With one shot, flames and shock erupted at the same time!

The window was blown open, and they were gone too.

The small house instantly turned into a ruin, and even the bed was set on fire.

But this group of maniacs didn't care at all. After resurrecting, they set up the grenade launcher again in the ruins and fired at the Sprawl Metropolis!

They really blasted the distant buildings.

——This once again proves that the Sprawl Metropolis has been built!

The players were overjoyed.

But other than that, they couldn't do much more.

They still couldn't get down.

Annoyed players then began to retaliate against society, frantically firing cannons in the room, bombarding the Sprawl Metropolis.

At first, there were only one or two people, so the problem was not big.

But as the number exceeded one hundred, things became troublesome—the operation of Sprawl Metropolis requires server computing power.

When there is no one, everything remains the same, and the computing power occupied is very small.

But after the bombing started, the physical destruction effect consumed some of the computing power first.

The NPC's reaction will consume even more.

——Don’t forget, Xu Meng added many intelligent NPCs with “independent thinking” abilities to this virtual city.

In addition, Xu Meng also frequently enters and exits Sprawl Metropolis, wandering around the city with Xiao Meng.

Adding content to the city and fixing bugs is one aspect.

Take her for a walk, eat something, and play street games.

Xu Meng is very attentive in raising Xiao Meng.

He had never thought about buying a house before.

——He redeemed Zhang Yang's wedding room as soon as possible, but he didn't have the idea of buying a house for himself.

He still lives in the house he rented before.

Because he felt it was not necessary.

But when the holographic display device was made, he not only carried out a mixed reality transformation of the office as soon as possible, but also seriously considered buying a house.

He can not have his own house, and he doesn't care.

But Xiao Meng must have one.

So he asked his little assistant Chen Mengling to help investigate suitable real estate developments that were closer to the company.

It is best to be able to make some mixed reality transformations and move in immediately.

……

Now, these players' behavior of bombing Sprawl Metropolis when they have nothing to do has seriously disturbed Xu Meng and Xiao Meng's leisure time.

At the same time, Xu Meng also realized that this kind of high-power weapon will also affect the experience of ordinary users in the future.

As a result, after these people had been happy for three days, they discovered that the rules had changed—

The shells disappeared into the air like snowflakes the moment they flew out of the room and entered Sprawl Metropolis.

This aroused dissatisfaction among some players.

But after all, the number was extremely small, and it was the super-hot time of [Age of Madness], so it did not cause too much disturbance.

After that, the Liver Emperors successively livered out other 10,000-kill series of golden weapons, and broke through the glass curtain wall one after another, feeling the cold wind in the high altitude of Sprawl Metropolis.

Then they encountered the same problem as Zhu Mo—

How to get down?

Using bed sheets as parachutes has long been proven ineffective.

The latest novel is first published on 69 Book Bar!

Because there is no such thing as "air" in Sprawl Metropolis.

The parachute in the game can decelerate because it is added with a deceleration code.

Dream Weaver's engine is not yet powerful enough for players to make bed sheets into parachutes, and the system will automatically recognize them and add deceleration codes to the bed sheets.

——Now all the engines in the world cannot achieve this level of intelligence.

That is the next generation engine, and it must be an effect that can only be achieved after specialization in the AI ​​direction.

The players also tried to break through the other side—the metal door of the room, enter the corridor of this residential building, and then take the elevator down.

Destruction is naturally impossible.

Grenade launchers and grenades can't blow this thing open.

However, in addition to fingerprint recognition, this door is also equipped with a mechanical combination lock.

What if you can figure out the password?

A group of gentle people started to try the password when they had nothing to do.

The other group of martial arts factions ran to the game to brush the number of kills with sledgehammers, preparing to try smashing the door and the floor.

——The difficulty of 10,000 kills with cold weapons is much higher than that of hot weapons. Less than a month is far from enough to complete it.

Not to mention, weapons such as sledgehammers, which are essentially "tools", are too difficult to kill people.

But when Xu Meng saw it today, he was surprised to find that a player with the ID [Northwest Hammer King] had actually hammered 4,188 people to death!

This person is a super Liver Emperor, with excellent skills and awareness, and fixed teammates to cooperate with, and the medic follows the milk throughout the whole process, so he can get this data.

At this rate, if he is given another month at most, he will definitely be able to get the sledgehammer.

Can the sledgehammer smash open the door or the floor?

This is actually not a problem.

Just like whether the combination lock can be opened, whether cold weapons can cut the bed sheets and quilts and tie them into ropes and hang down…

These are not the real problems.

The real problem is—

The players can't wait any longer!

They have been looking forward to it for too long and have paid too much for this goal.

Now, even if this door could not be smashed open originally, it must be able to be smashed open now!

Xu Meng has secretly modified the code of the door, the combination lock, and the bed sheets and quilts.

Now, the door, which cannot be destroyed even by grenades, can indeed be smashed open with a hammer.

The combination lock has a real password.

No matter how thin the bed sheet is cut, it can bear the weight of the player.

The "narrow door" leading to Sprawl Metropolis has indeed been opened.

But at the same time, Xu Meng also released a message with his account on the night he left Lingzhou Studio—

[On December 1st, the [Age of Madness] awards ceremony will be held in Sprawl Metropolis!]

Without any accident, this news instantly caused a huge sensation all over the world!

The media and netizens flocked in.

The keyword [Virtual City] has skyrocketed in popularity, and it rushed to the top of the hot search list in less than 10 minutes!

The players collectively fell into ecstasy!

But those players who have been working hard to play the game and want to enter Sprawl Metropolis one step ahead, in addition to surprise, felt a sense of urgency—

December 1st.

This is the deadline!

If they cannot enter Sprawl Metropolis before this day, then all their previous efforts will be in vain.

On the night he saw this news, Northwest Hammer King did not sleep and stayed up all night.

There were also thousands of players who stayed up all night to刷 the number of kills with cold weapons.

At the moment when the opening of the virtual city entered the countdown, they also started the final sprint!
