Chapter 998: Chapter 928 “What do you mean?
Am I stuck?”_1 Chapter 998: Chapter 928 “What do you mean?
Am I stuck?”_1 General seemed taken aback at Yi’s reaction.
But he quickly got past it, swallowed his prepared speech, then took Yi onto the helicopter.
Once the two boarded, the helicopter immediately took off, hovering at the same height as the monsters and mech.
Yi leaned out of the helicopter window watching the astonishingly destructive battle between the giant beasts and the mech.
This unique sideline perspective was a completely new experience.
The crumbling giant wall, the monster’s scattered blue blood, the dent and deformity of the mech’s shell, the roaring noise of mechanical structures…
The sensory impact was off the charts!
Seeing this made Yi couldn’t wait to return to the cockpit to experience the thrill of driving the mech again.
…
“I really want to operate a mech too!”
Ivan Ivanov was insanely jealous as he watched Yi’s live stream.
Practically since forever, his main game had only been “Hunter: Call of the Wilderness”.

Not only did this game bring him a lot of honor and popularity, transforming him from an ordinary game streamer into one of the top streamers in Virtual Environment Games, but it also brought him a lot of happiness and exciting experiences.
That’s why even if Cloud Dream comes out with a new game, he will always go and try it out, live streaming it to ride the wave of its popularity.
However, his signature game, and the absolute focus of his live streams, has always been “Hunter: Call of the Wilderness”.
The new maps regularly released by the operation team, the newly added game features, and the occasional hunting competitions have always kept the game’s popularity at a significantly high level.
He never thought about switching to another main game.
Until “Pacific Rim” arrived.
This gigantic industrial creation, a perfect blend of power and beauty, instantly pierced his heart and ignited his passion.
It even prompted him to consider changing his main game for streaming.
However, the immediate line stating [only sold within the Chinese-speaking area], poured a bucket of cold water over him, instantly chilling his raging passion.
So, what next?
What else can I do?
Learn!
But although Ivan was good at hunting, top-notch even, studying…
it wasn’t really his thing.
Until the official game release today, he couldn’t manage to pass the virtual world’s [Chinese Proficiency Test].
– Even while watching Lincoln’s live stream operating the mech, he continued to learn Chinese by watching other videos in his spare time.
But there’s no helping it, not passing the test simply means not passing.
There’s no cramming for this.
You can’t simply study a few hours of video and expect to learn it.
So he could only sigh in resignation – a phrase he learned from a Daxia audience on his live stream channel – while switching to the Daxia live streaming platform to watch Yi’s broadcast via the virtual world’s channel.
Several overseas streamers and players like Ivan are facing similar dilemmas.
They could only drool while watching the live stream, and when Yi shouted “General, I want to operate the mech”, they also sent the same comment in the live stream:
“I also want to operate a mech!”
Without a doubt, for the majority of players, there’s simply no reason to refuse the General’s invitation to rejoin his mech squad.
If they could operate the mech again, they’d surely go without a second thought!
After all, who would choose to carry bricks if they could operate a mech?
– Of course, with such a large player base, there are bound to be some with unconventional thinking.
Super Tomato is one of those who refuse.
But his reasoning is quite normal.
He merely wanted to test: What would happen if a different choice was made.
So when the General said he needed a pilot and invited him to rejoin the Pacific Rim defense squad, he unequivocally shook his head and said, “I refuse.”
The General wasn’t surprised, “Because of your brother’s death in battle?”
Super Tomato continued to shake his head: “A bit.
But that’s not the main reason.”
“So, what’s the main reason?”
Super Tomato, ignoring the collapsing giant wall, and without any change to his expression, says: “I enjoy building walls!
There’s nothing more interesting than working construction.”
“??” The General’s eyes were full of confusion.
But soon, this confusion turned into anger, “I don’t know if you’re aware, but this world is on the brink of disaster!”
“Where are you planning to die?”
“Here?
ƝοѵǤ0.ᴄο
Or on the mech?!”
Super Tomato had to admit, the general’s words were indeed provocative.
But…
Next time!
“This construction site is pretty nice, wouldn’t be bad to be buried here.” He stubbornly rejected again.
The general, infuriated, drew his gun and pointed it at his head, seemingly about to pull the trigger.
But eventually, he sighed and lowered his gun.
“Your brother was a hero, it’s a pity you’re not.”
Leaving that last sentence behind, he gave up trying to persuade Super Tomato and turned away.
Super Tomato quietly watched him leave.
Then, while watching the Horizon Warrior battling monsters, he waited for the system’s response.
In his speculation, the system might trigger some other plots, leading him back to the original storyline, or trigger a certain death plot, forcing him to rollback.
As long as he didn’t leave with the general, he would certainly die.
—This kind of plot was also easy to arrange—just let the mech be defeated and the monster come trampling over him.
Of course, there was another possibility—like when Yi got the “Human Extinction” ending—directly giving out a branch ending.
Super Tomato was more hopeful of another ending.
But he waited and waited, but nothing new happened.
The fight between the mech and the monster was incredibly exciting but also very nerve-wracking.
The second-generation mech was clearly at a disadvantage against the third-energy-level monster.
But the two drivers’ exquisite combat techniques and perfect control of the mech allowed them to always find opportunities to counterattack in a disadvantageous situation.
The destruction caused by the fight was breathtaking, but it didn’t specifically target him like Super Tomato imagined.
If he ran far enough, he could even stand still and watch the battle confidently.
In the end, the two drivers paid a huge price to kill this giant monster.
As a result, the “Horizon Warrior Revision” was severely damaged and almost scrapped.
If one were to say this battle was a mutual destruction, it wouldn’t be an overstatement; the only good news was that the two drivers had survived.
But none of this was the point for Super Tomato.
The real key was:
“What about me?”
“What should I do next?
I am the protagonist, after all!”
The monsters had all been defeated and the army had begun to clean up the aftermath, but he hadn’t triggered any new plot nor branch endings.
“???” Super Tomato was full of question marks.
After being stunned for a while, he incredulously said, “What does this mean?
Am I stuck?”
He opened the panel with confusion, found the mission bar, and tried to see if there were any new missions.
But there wasn’t.
The main mission had ended after he rejected the general.
Now there was only one mission left in the mission category—
[Complete Welding].
The suffix to this mission had changed from [Failed] to [Pending Restart] at some unknown point.
Before the monster invasion, there was indeed one welding point he hadn’t completed.
After the monster invasion, the entire steel frame had collapsed.
He even experienced a super exciting vertical drop from a hundred meters up.
The mission, of course, had failed.
But now…
“Restart?
Do I have to go to the dump outside the wall to find the two sections of steel frame that weren’t welded properly and weld them back together?”
“Or am I supposed to rebuild the steel frame, to repair the Wall of Life?”
Looking at the nearly 300-meter collapsed wall, Super Tomato was flooded with a strong sense of absurdity—
“I’m not really going to be a builder, staying here building walls until I die, am I?”
