Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 1016



Chapter 1016: Chapter 944: The Shortest Invasion in History_1 Chapter 1016: Chapter 944: The Shortest Invasion in History_1 Bad news: Twelve casual players were instantly obliterated, their bodies vaporized.

Good news: Although their departures were anything but peaceful, they didn’t experience any pain.

In the midst of it all, Victoria only saw a flash of blue light before the System notified her:

[The current Game World is heading towards destruction, matching you to a new world.]

With a dumbstruck expression, she was transported to another player’s world…

Clearly, there were more than a few players who, like Yi, accidentally stepped on a landmine during their first Neural Connection with Shinshi and ended up destroying their own command centers.

Of course, Cloud Dream wasn’t solely about screwing people over.

Those who triggered this storyline would unlock a brand-new Echo Instance –

[Tokyo: Demon Witch].

But Yi paid no attention to this new instance.

After resurrecting, he continued to push the main storyline, trying the Neural Connection with Shinshi once again.

Although it still failed the second time around, he was more prepared, locking down the weapons system in advance, which at least saved his command center from destruction.

In the end, the connection was forcibly terminated due to a low synchronization rate and a timeout.

On the third try, he finally succeeded in grabbing the hand of the 12-year-old Shinshi in the Memory World.

The scared and crying little girl finally found support in Yi’s embrace, calming down and gradually regaining consciousness, escaping the indelible memories.

Returning to the river of consciousness and memory, Yi immediately discovered that the river’s flow had significantly slowed.

Then, Shinshi’s consciousness even began guiding him, leading him to the control system of the [Dangerous Wanderer], successfully taking control of this colossal machine.

Afterward, there was a surprise on the Coastline: two invading 4th-level monsters – the [Tailed Rat] and the [Ridgeback Turtle] – attacked first.

The [Crimson Storm], which had traded armor for speed, was severely damaged in this ambush.

While [Cherno Alpha] was certainly heavy, maxed out in both power and defense, being a first-generation mecha fighting a 4th-level monster left little to the imagination about the outcome, especially against the equally specialized [Ridgeback Turtle].

Even the fifth-generation mecha [Eureka Striker] was hit point-blank by the newly evolved [Electromagnetic Pulse] attack of the [Ridgeback Turtle] while disobeying the General’s orders to save its teammates, instantly paralyzing its operating system.

Fortunately, the moment the General saw the two mechas suffering heavy blows, he immediately ordered Yi and Shinshi to provide assistance, thus preventing their only fifth-generation mecha from being destroyed by the monsters.

After that, it was showtime for Yi and Shinshi!

The Development Team designed for the players an exhilarating battle that was several times more intense, splendid, and prolonged than the scene Lincoln had suggested.

Many of the breathtaking scenes painstakingly designed and developed by the teams in past games were often spoiled because the players “had their own ideas”.

But in Pacific Rim, and especially in this battle, the problem was largely solved.

Because this was not a battle fought by the player alone, but a battle fought alongside Shinshi.

— Yet Shinshi, who was “in tune” with the player and jointly piloted the mecha, sided with the Development Team!

In other words: This time, it was the players and the Development Team fighting side by side!

They first rushed to have a “1v1 real man battle” with the [Ridgeback Turtle], rescuing the critically endangered [Eureka Striker].

Close-quarters wrestling, tackles, throws, brute force collisions, Superman punches, rocket punches…

Adapting to the situation, they picked up container crates from the port as bricks and fiercely hit the monster’s head…

An endless amount of power surged out from the nuclear engine, giving Yi an inexhaustible supply of strength.

Each wrestling match, each collision, felt like two mountains colliding!

Every punch was a mobilization of all their strength, heavily bombarding the monster.

A significant amount of the counter-shock strength was absorbed by the buffering structure, while they gritted their teeth to withstand the rest, adding a dash of anger to turn it into an even more formidable force slamming back onto the monster!

They toppled the monster, got knocked down by the monster, crawled back up to topple the monster again!

Both sides went back and forth evenly matched.

But the fierce battle was not over, as it had attracted another monster that had appeared in the city earlier looking for destruction.

Then, the 4th level monster – [Tailed Rat] joined the assault!

Yi and Shinshi, piloting the [Dangerous Wanderer], had to fight two on one!

A harsher, more spectacular, and heated battle began!

The collision of three mountain peaks caused astonishing destruction to the city, far exceeding the efficiency of a single [Tailed Rat].

In just 9 minutes, a third of the buildings in the Hong Kong Urban Area were destroyed.

Of course, none of the three culprits cared about this – it wasn’t just the monsters, even Yi didn’t give a damn.

He was completely in the zone now, his mind filled with “I am definitely going to beat the crap out of these two!”.

If he could hinder a monster by knocking down a skyscraper, he would do so without hesitation!

If he could stun a monster by exploding a large liquid natural gas tank in a factory, he would do it without hesitation!

Economic loss, shelter area, damage he suffered himself…

He doesn’t care!

He doesn’t care about any of it!

Under this kind of fearless, self-sacrificing tactic, he actually managed to restrain two level 4 monsters with one mecha!

Even more, making use of the mecha’s coolant to chop off the [Tailed Rat’s] tail!

In the end, the [Tailed Rat] had to abandon its strong attack, suddenly sprouting a pair of wings from its back, its claws deeply embedded in the body of the Dangerous Wanderer, vibrating its wings, and flying off with the mecha!

This is a highly counterintuitive scene.

The [Dangerous Wanderer] is not made of full titanium body like the [Crimson Storm], but a heavy all-steel body!

This unexpected development left Yi a bit dumbfounded, and during the time he was lost in thought, they were dragged straight into the clouds by the Tailed Rat, even breaking through the troposphere into the stratosphere, seeing the curvature of the earth and the brilliant golden light on the curvature.

——It’s the sunlight on the daylight side of the planet.

Yi was fascinated by the brilliant and majestic arc of the earth, lost in thought for a moment.

Then——

He drew his chain sword!

Facing the golden rays of light, he sliced through the body of the Tailed Rat with one stroke!

Although the body of the monster was astonishingly hard, relying on tenacious willpower and a do-or-die overdrive, they roared and pushed the blade bit by bit, severing the flying monster —— in two!

In the desperate wails of the Tailed Rat, both the dead monster and the mecha began to fall.

Plummeting straight from the stratosphere down to the earth!

Alarms blared one after another inside the cockpit.

Members of the command center staff ran out of the base, braving the torrential rain to come outside and gaze at the “mecha meteor” falling from the sky, having broken through the lead clouds.

The general’s anxious voice reached their ears: “Wanderer, listen!

Deploy all shock absorbers!

Maintain balance with the gyrostabilizer and hug the mecha into a ball!

That’s your only chance of survival!”

But the answer he received was only one word ——

“No.”

It was Yi’s voice.

He looked at Shinshi next to him and said, “The mecha is severely damaged, the engine and power core have been overloaded multiple times, and the cooling system is on the verge of collapse…the mecha has reached its limit.”

“But we still have an opponent waiting for us on the ground, and we no longer have the strength to continue the fight.”

“So, for our last move!

We must deliver a fatal blow, completely destroy the Ridgeback Turtle!”

Without any hesitation, Shinshi nodded her head, agreeing to his crazy idea.

But the general over the communication was confused: “What are you trying to do?”

Yi answered with a smile, “Of course, I’m going to give the monster a surprise!”

As the fall accelerated, the city was rapidly approaching.

He spotted the position of the Ridgeback Turtle again.

For some unknown reason, this monster was not wreaking havoc, but instead stood in place, looking around.

——But this makes it even better!

“Spray coolant, adjust the position!

Aim at the target, full fuel injection!”

“Take my move —— Heaven!

Earth!

Share!

Longevity!”

On the ground, Super Tomato, who had successfully invaded his friend’s world and quilted onto the Ridgeback Turtle, was left perplexed looking around, but no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t find Yi.

Until a huge noise erupted overhead.

Then he looked up and saw a burning meteor.

“?”

“BOOM!!!”
