Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 1006



Chapter 1006: Chapter 936: Second Blossoming (Two in One)_1 Chapter 1006: Chapter 936: Second Blossoming (Two in One)_1 Giselle exited the battlefield and swiftly lay on her bed in her room, choosing [Rest].

The hands of the bedside clock immediately started spinning rapidly, with even the hour hand moving notch by notch, and in a blink of an eye, a night passed by.

The moment the passage of time returned to normal, the door to the room was knocked on once again.

This time, it was the General’s assistant, Miss Shinshi.

However, Giselle was not interested in her.

In Giselle’s view, this woman was nothing more than her mech’s maintenance and upgrade supervisor, a tool, pure and simple.

Not just any woman, not even the driver of the Eureka Striker, that mature and steady handsome gentleman, could keep her distracted.

—— She came to the virtual world to earn money, not to fall in love!

Not like her best friend, Maydai, who was trying to become Chuck’s stepmother!

And this undoubtedly enraged this youngster!

The uncle with a kind demeanor had to intervene in the conflict in the end, exchanged a few pleasantries with Maydai, and incidentally activated the [Echo of the Battle of Manila].

This was also the reason why Giselle would enter the echo battlefield and encounter Yi and Yelang.

She herself had not triggered this event, much less activated this echo.

“Your co-driver selection is about to start, they are all waiting for you,” Miss Shinshi informed Giselle of the mission.

“Let’s go,” Giselle simply said, and followed Shinshi towards their destination.

At the edge of the training ground, not only were the General and the candidate mechanics waiting, but a large number of base staff were also gathered to watch the spectacle.

Although Giselle didn’t know how the selection process was conducted, she confidently entered the crowd, standing firm in the open space in the middle.

“General, how is the selection carried out?” She took the initiative to ask.

The General nodded at the worker on his right, who picked up a stick made of white waxwood and threw it toward Giselle.

Giselle reached out and grabbed it!

“Thud!”

“Ouch!” Giselle covered her face with both hands, crying out in pain.

She failed to accurately catch the stick and ended up getting whacked on the face by it.

The General, Shinshi, and even the other mecha pilots all turned their heads away, not wanting to witness this embarrassing scene.

The spectators immediately burst into laughter.

“Sss!” Giselle removed the stick, and a swollen bump forming on her forehead, she winced in pain, “What’s next?”

As her voice trailed off, the rapid footsteps sounded from behind her.

Giselle turned her head to see a group of strong-looking, stick-wielding muscular men from around the world, simultaneously moving forward.

“??” She instinctively retreated two steps.

But the sound of footsteps came again from behind her.

This time, it was several females with a build no less than her, all wielding sticks —— This was an adjustment made specifically for female players.

The nine candidates formed a formation and quickly surrounded Giselle in the center.

“???” Giselle was a bit panicked, “They are not seriously expecting me to fight all nine of them by myself, are they?”

“This is your co-driver selection, not a competition of strength,” the General shook his head, “It seems that your five years of wandering have made you forget your education at the Hunter Academy.”

“What really matters is communication and finding a tacit understanding through exchanges, not determining the winner or loser.”

“Now that you mention it, I understand.

Let’s start then” Giselle finally felt relieved.

A bald machinist stepped forward, performed a standard stick-wielding salute, then swung his stick right at Giselle’s head.

Giselle quickly blocked it with her stick.

She blocked the attack successfully, but her opponent had already fluidly changed his attack and lifted his stick to hit her chin.

“Thunk!”

Giselle’s chin went numb, and she was momentarily dizzy.

Her opponent was landing his moves so perfectly that it was too late for him to hold back his stick, which struck her forehead.

“Clunk!”

With a crisp sound, Giselle fell to the ground flat on her back.

The bald machinist looked at Giselle, who he had knocked over with a single strike, then looked at the spectators around him and subconsciously backed down.

Giselle, propped herself up from the ground, shook her head, and managed to lift it up.

The General’s voice came from behind –

“The level of tacit understanding isn’t enough, next.”

The bald mechanic looked shocked as Giselle then reluctantly stepped back.

Next up was a female mechanic

Learning from the previous candidate, she intentionally slowed down, matching Giselle hit for hit.

But the NPC spectators watched this ruckus unfold, and someone even gave a catcall, which turned the General’s face completely black.

“Go all out!” He said with a deep voice.

“Huh?” Giselle was surprised, “Didn’t you just say the focus is on tacit understanding, not who can hit harder?!”

“Clunk!”

Giselle fell again.

“Next!” The General declared with a blank face.

Giselle struggled to get up from the ground, with already three bumps on her head.

——And probably a fourth one coming, as her third challenger had already stepped forward, standing in front of her.

Giselle didn’t move, but counting the number of candidate mechanics:

“1, 2, 3…7, 8, 9!”

“Am I going to be bashed on the head by nine people?

Why are they all aiming at my head?”

Giselle felt the developer’s strong malice!

“Clunk!”

“YES!!!”

With bumps all over her head, Giselle swung her stick and hit her opponent on the head to successfully subdue them.

This was the first enemy she managed to knock down after getting knocked out seven times and eventually adapting to the rhythm and seizing the opportunity!

Giselle was overjoyed and let out a cheer on the spot.
