Chapter 278: #278 - The rails have arrived! The giants are invading! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

“Bang!”

Fei Zhiyuan slammed his fist on the desk!

The assistant was startled by the sudden loud noise, and the cup in her hand slipped, spilling scalding coffee on the table and splashing Fei Zhiyuan's face.

“Hiss—” Fei Zhiyuan gasped, scalded.

He glared at the assistant, his eyes turning red.

The assistant apologized repeatedly, taking out a tissue to wipe him, but he pushed her away.

Restraining his anger, he took out his phone and called Lu Ming.

But Lu Ming's phone was already off, and he couldn't get through at all.

Looking at the flood of abusive language in his comments section, Fei Zhiyuan's chest rose and fell sharply.

Under his pinned post, thousands of replies were quickly filled with insults!

This doesn't mean that only 1000+ people were cursing him.

But that among the countless players who were cursing him, some felt that cursing from afar wasn't enough to vent their anger, so they specifically found his homepage to curse.

After the curses were sent out, the Weiguang system reviewed them, shielding countless lines that were too vulgar.

Finally, only these thousand-plus remained.

His private messages were undoubtedly instantly “99+”.

And Fei Zhiyuan didn't want to open them at all.

He glared at the assistant and asked:

“In these 4 years, have I ever let him down in any way?”

“Have his bonuses and commissions ever been shorted by even a penny?”

“Is this how he repays me?!”

Because she knew very well: Lu Ming initially wanted to part ways amicably.

If Fei Zhiyuan hadn't refused to let him go, things wouldn't have escalated to this point.

Fei Zhiyuan waved his hand impatiently, telling her to leave the office.

The assistant didn't want to stay here any longer, picked up the coffee cup, and quickly left.

Leaving Fei Zhiyuan alone, stewing in anger in the office.

… …

An hour later, Fei Zhiyuan hadn't figured out how to express his position when the assistant knocked on the office door again.

“Come in!” Fei Zhiyuan asked with a frown, “What is it now?”

“Boss, four veteran employees from the 'Divine Bird' project team have suddenly submitted their resignation reports,” the assistant said nervously.

“Again?!” Fei Zhiyuan's mood, which had just calmed down a little, flared up again.

He stood up, “Let's go, I'll go talk to them.”

Currently, 'Divine Bird' is Moyu Games' biggest revenue pillar.

He couldn't have more problems!

But life is always contrary to expectations.

He hadn't finished talking to the old employees who wanted to leave when a new situation emerged—

A large number of 'Divine Bird' veteran players posting videos of deleting their accounts and quitting the game appeared on bilibili, with 3 even reaching the trending list!

Although Fei Zhiyuan was far from the development position, he had always paid attention to the operation side, and his vigilance was still there.

He quickly realized:

Competitors were starting to make moves!

He knew that Lu Ming's departure would cause some twists and turns.

But he didn't expect it to cause so many chain reactions!

The game development progress was not as expected.

More veteran employees were determined to resign.

Players were cursing up a storm.

Competitors launched an attack.

… …

One thing after another, it was simply exhausting him.

In the end, he had no choice but to issue an announcement, expressing respect and regret for Lu Ming's decision, and wishing him further success.

Putting on a facade of parting ways amicably.

Lu Ming's resignation process, which had been stuck for several days, was finally completed on this day.

— —

Lu Ming didn't know about this yet.

He didn't intend to put the issue on the internet in the first place, but now that he had no choice but to do so, he had a kind of escapist mentality of not wanting to face it, so he plunged into the game.

But he didn't expect that he would get hooked while playing!

At first, he was still dizzy and a little tired.

But after a commander with the ID [Yanluo] appeared, the situation quickly changed—

One lone wolf and small team after another were organized and merged into teams.

Finally, from 1 to 10, 10 hundred-person groups were organized.

The group leaders entered the voice channel, and Yanluo directed on the spot, explaining the tasks of each team clearly.

Reconnaissance team, logistics team, engineer team, flamethrower team, grenade team, vehicle team, mobile team…

They acted quickly under Yanluo's command, shuttling back and forth along the long front line.

Strengthening weak points, seizing lost positions, beheading powerful “ant colony animal mimics”, and even continuing to advance, accelerating the laying of rails…

He couldn't organize all the players, but these 10 groups greatly improved the chaotic state of the players.

Especially when he made the decision to expand a rail to three.

He also asked the players to clear the area beside the rails as an express lane for transporting supplies.

In this way, the logistics problem was greatly improved.

The player support speed was also greatly increased!

The chaotic battlefield quickly became organized and orderly.

Lu Ming joined the vehicle team.

This was not a team entirely composed of vehicles.

The latest and fastest novels are at !

— —Among the logistics support provided by Mansheng Capital, there were no armored vehicles, and the material transport vehicles were far from enough to meet the demand.

Therefore, in the vehicle team, players used their own purchased cars.

Because the number was limited, they had to put as many people as possible in each car.

SUVs were okay, with 4 people in the car and 3 people on the roof.

Seven cone-shaped flames quickly burned out a large area of bare ground.

Motorcycles were a pity, as they could only carry three people at most—Indian players expressed strong dissatisfaction with this.

Lu Ming and his good brothers stood on the roof of an SUV, feeling the speed of the SUV charging back and forth, while firing flamethrowers frantically, burning ant after ant to death.

He really felt what was called “speed and passion”!

This sense of immersion that made people's hearts surge deeply shook him.

He also decided that the next pirate game must create a stronger sense of immersion than this!

Even while firing, a large number of fragmented images had already begun to appear in his mind, and inspiration was constantly emerging!

… …

… …

Not long after [Yanluo] appeared, Longcheng Feijiang also appeared.

Then came one commander after another.

They each organized 1 to 5 hundred-person groups and joined this grand expedition.

From day to night, they killed nearly a hundred kinds of large “mimetic creatures” with different shapes, nearly ten thousand players were killed, and the fuel and ammunition consumed were countless…

The rails finally extended to Silver City.

Que Tong brought all the characters to welcome the arrival of the players.

Their costumes have also changed, and the degree of exposure has been greatly reduced—compared with the "Frost Snow Project" game body, it has almost dropped from [18+] back to [16+].

However, the intense battle background makes this change not so abrupt.

— —If there is a war behind them, and they are still wearing super sexy clothes, then it would be eye-catching and outrageous…

After the rails and Silver City were merged, the [Support Silver City] task was updated—

[Rails have been connected to Silver City, Phase 1 rewards have been distributed]

[The energy train has departed, protect the integrity of the rails and ensure that the energy arrives at Silver City]

[Defeat the creatures attacking Silver City and ensure that the city is not destroyed before the energy arrives]—

The brave sniper looked at his account and found that he had 10,000 more credit points in an instant!

“Good heavens! So much is given in the first stage!”

“So rich!”

“However, creatures attacking Silver City? Isn’t it just ants? Could there be others?”

He curiously squeezed into the excited players and found Tong Que, who was surrounded in the middle, and asked: “What kind of creatures are attacking Silver City?”

Tong Que was still wearing a gorgeous long dress made of golden beads and jade chains, but the golden chains were denser to avoid wardrobe malfunctions.

Hearing the brave sniper's question, the surrounding players also quieted down and looked at Tong Que.

And Tong Que gave him an unexpected answer:

“Giants.”

“?” A question mark slowly popped up on the brave sniper's head.

“Are they giants made up of ant colonies?”

“No.” Tong Que shook her head, “Just giants.”

As she spoke, a piercing alarm sounded over Silver City.

Tong Que immediately looked at the city wall on the west side of the city.

The players around her also looked up in that direction.

The next second, a huge amount of steam suddenly came out from the direction of the city gate!

A huge, hideous head with exposed muscles and bones slowly protruded from the steam!

This giant was even taller than the city wall!

“What…what the hell is that?” The brave sniper almost groaned.

Tong Que's expression was still calm, but her tone became serious:

“As I said before—”

“Giants.”
