Chapter 208 Can’t Save It (First Update)
"I think this time it should be evenly matched. Everyone will be beaten until they are broken, and then lie down together and watch the stars. This is in line with my mood at this time."
A hundred-meter deep hole was dug into the city with many tall buildings, and Lao Wang's mecha was knocked to the ground by a stick from the ape demon mecha.
Spider-web-like cracks spread to the surroundings, and Lao Wang in the middle was torn apart. The oil and coolant in his body splashed everywhere, leaving only the cockpit intact.
The ape demon mecha squatted in front of Lao Wang's cockpit holding a stick, scratching his head in confusion, and said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, your posture when you rushed over just now was too upright, so I couldn't help but take action. Don't do it again? I promise to put more water this time, and it will definitely let you play for five minutes."
"Could you be more sincere! Can you tell me about releasing water! Shouldn't you cheer me up with Chun Yurun's silent attitude!"
"It is because I am sincere that I speak out."
Lao Wang said that the game felt that what the other party said made sense, but he was still upset.
Walking out of the resurrection point, he lost the interest to continue playing, but the previous depression also dissipated.
I can even turn on the armor, the previous depression is a fart!
And looking back, he found that being autistic these past few days didn't seem right.
Wasn't it just that he was deceived by the goddess of his childhood? It's nothing to seek life and death like this.
Just as he was motivating himself, Lao Wang heard the monkey say: "In three days, Druid Entertainment's "Fallen Mecha" competition will be held."
"I know, what's wrong?"
"Our boss is also planning to hold the "Qi Ling" event, and is planning to hold it on the same day as the other party, and even the venue is next door. The audition notice has been sent out in advance, and the audition will be held after the game is updated, and it will be held globally at the same time .”
Lao Wang opened his mouth wide and couldn't believe his ears.
Is the headset in the all-in-one VR machine malfunctioning? Why did he hear such incredible things?
Quickly cutting out, Lao Wang looked through the recent game reports and found that the monkey was not lying. The relevant reports had indeed been sent out.
The game is still a trial version, and global competitions are started before any money is collected. This has never been heard of before!
Moreover, after passing the audition, a round-trip air ticket will be provided directly, and even the passport will be helped to get it in advance, and it will be sent directly to the United States for the competition.
The entire process includes all hotel room and board, the winner will receive a bonus of US$5 million, and those who pass the audition will receive a reward of US$10,000. The whole process can be called a money-splitting exercise.
After a rough calculation, Lao Wang found that this activity could not be stopped for less than 30 million U.S. dollars.
Ten million soft sister coins can already host a large-scale event, and Fangcheng Studio is obviously heading for a super-large event.
After calculating the account clearly in his mind, Lao Wang couldn't help but ask: "Does your boss have too much money?"
"You also know?" Monkey asked in surprise, "The boss is worried about having too much money on his books every day. Even if he wants to raise money for charity, he feels that the nearest channel is not reliable."
"This is not a question! Forget it, I know you have money, but you can't work for nothing. Can you recoup the cost?"
"The boss doesn't look very good. He probably won't be able to take it back."
"Then you still do it!"
"Although the boss didn't say anything, I feel like the boss wants to help everyone vent their anger."
Upon hearing this answer, Lao Wang felt his chest surge and the corners of his eyes became moist.
Fortunately, he is now in a VR all-in-one machine and the other party cannot see his expression, otherwise Lao Wang would definitely die of embarrassment.
After finally calming down, he said to the monkey: "Say thank you to Fang Cheng for me."
"He knew you would say that, so he asked me to help deliver a message."
"What words?"
"He said, you can't pass the audition anyway, so just come to the arena and be a commentator. I'll help you prepare your air ticket and visa. Your salary will be calculated as a studio employee. You just need to bring Zhang Mou here."
"Did he look down on me!"
"That...you might really not be able to pass the audition."
"Are you looking down on me!"
Lao Wang angrily went out, found the audition rules, and then read them.
The competition version of "Qi Ling" has been launched on all major platforms. This version is free for a limited time and will be converted to a paid version after the competition.
In addition to the previously existing infinite mode and sandbox mode, the PVP mode has also been launched. Players can see a competition entrance in the PVP mode. After entering, they will enter the arena and fight with the AI that acts as an instructor.
As long as you can defeat the AI, you will be eligible to participate. Electronic tickets and participation vouchers will be immediately sent to the player's pass.
The Cayman Company has helped resolve the visa issue. Other than that, there are no conditions. Players from all over the world can participate, and there will never be any discrimination against players from any country.
And when the venue competition starts, the audition will not stop. Players can still participate in the audition during this period until the venue competition ends and the competition enters the finals.
After reading the content of the competition, Lao Wang felt that the progress this time was very fast. The auditions even need to be held at the same time as the live competition, and some problems will inevitably arise in the middle.
However, Cayman Company also has a lot of experience in organizing events. If the other party is willing to do this, it must be fully prepared. There should be no need to worry about this aspect.
However, as a result, the cost of the competition will also further increase, which makes Lao Wang feel that it is not worthwhile to do this just to vent his anger.
But he knew that he was not Fang Cheng, and maybe the other party had a deeper intention.
Restarting "Qi Ling", he selected the audition entrance and started the competition.
Because it is a competition, the mechas available for the competition are all fully activated, and the chips are fully activated. Players can freely match the mechas they want, and can even add two more sets as replacements during the competition.
The AI in the game chooses the default mecha, which is very average in all aspects and does not have as many tricks as the players.
Landing in the spacious arena, Lao Wang found that this was a huge arena.
Opposite him, the gray-brown default mecha looked at him silently, and after Lao Wang entered, he gestured for the other party to come over.
Stepping forward, Lao Wang rushed directly towards the mecha on the opposite side. The hydraulics on his arms were operating at full capacity, causing his arms to burst out with a large amount of steam.
He hit the opponent with all his strength, but the opponent's head did not appear to be shattered. Instead, the mecha deployed a force field and bounced away his powerful punch.
"What!"
The opponent's movements are quite flexible, and he is extremely skilled in operating the mecha.
Taking advantage of the moment when Lao Wang was thrown away and lost his balance, the AI mecha stretched out its hand, grabbed Lao Wang's head, and then pressed it down hard.
A knee strike followed, and in the roar that made the teeth sore, Lao Wang suffered a severe blow to the head, and then a close-range melta cannon hit his abdomen. The energy bursting out from the opponent's palm exploded his power furnace, causing Lao Wang to exit immediately.
In less than fifteen seconds, Pharaoh hated him.
Seeing the AI mecha return to its original position with an expressionless expression, Lao Wang was extremely shocked. It took him a long time to shout: "Cheat! How can a mecha fight like this? Who can beat this thing?"
Regaining himself, Pharaoh was ready to change his mind.
Melee combat may not work, so use long-range weapons to contain them, and then give the opponent a hard hit!
Enter the game again. After Lao Wang arrives, he quickly retreats, then takes out the artillery and starts shooting crazily.
A large number of missiles flew towards the target, but before the missiles could get close, the mecha on the opposite side deployed a force field to neutralize the incoming weapons one by one.
Seeing the other party walking out of the smoke, Lao Wang couldn't help shouting: "No!"
Then, the AI mecha pulled out the lightsaber from its wrist and rushed towards Lao Wang. Lao Wang, who was unable to dodge, was split in two from the middle and returned to his birth point amidst the explosion.
Two failures made Lao Wang realize that the audition was really difficult.
Even a strong technical player like him was killed at first sight, so there shouldn't be many people who can pass the test.
Take a rest now, log in to Station B to say hello to your fans and let them know that Lao Wang is still alive, and then continue the challenge.
But as soon as he logged into station B, he found that station B had been blocked by "Qi Ling".
It has been five hours since the competitive version of "Qi Ling" was launched.
The game is free. If you pass the audition, you can get 10,000 US dollars and a free air ticket to the United States. Players from all over the world compete on the same stage...
Taken individually, these conditions are very tempting, but put together they are simply a surefire success.
Coupled with Druid Entertainment's recent indifferent behavior, the chain reaction triggered by this has detonated the media, making its counterpart "Qi Ling" a hot celebrity topic.
Within five hours, its downloads had exceeded 10 million worldwide. Druid Entertainment's biggest competitor was personally spawned by him and stood in front of it with murderous intent.
A large number of players began to participate in the auditions, and many talented players stood out. Various videos of challenging AI mechas began to emerge. Some anchors even started a seventy-two-hour challenge to see if they could defeat the AI mecha within seventy-two hours.
These AI mechas were programmed by Fang Cheng to imitate the weapon spirit. Their level was about 30% of the weapon spirit's level, which was more than enough to screen players.
And at the sixth hour, the first kill was finally born.
An unnamed player held up the electronic ticket and check on his mobile phone, showed his first kill through a video, and gave his acceptance speech:
"Liuzi, where is your hard core? Why can't I see it?"
Ten minutes later, the second unnamed player who killed the AI mecha also showed his results and gave an acceptance speech: "You son of a bitch! There is a jet lag here!"
Domestic players began to successfully kill one after another, and many foreign players also challenged to win. After redeeming and discovering that the rewards could really be redeemed, the second wave of social hot spots was born.
Although many players initially went there for the bonus, after actually downloading "Qi Ling", they found...
There's something wrong with this game!
No, it should be the strength of this game!
Fortunately for domestic players, Fangcheng Studio’s games have never let them down. They just don’t have any idea after seeing them.
But foreign players are still different.
Although they have experienced the baptism of "Devil", many people are actually not interested in the theme of oriental fairy tales. Many people just say that they have played it.
But "Qi Ling" is different.
Just watching the challenge videos played by the host made their hearts swell, and the videos during the PVP battles made people even more excited.
Tear the mecha to pieces with your bare hands, wrestle at close range, and the extremely fast mecha combat is unbearable. You just want to get into the mecha and experience it for yourself.
After discovering that there is a VR version of "Qi Ling" and that it can only be used by Kirin Industries, many wealthy people directly bought Kirin VR all-in-one machines by mail across the sea, and after personal experience, they became tool people who can only repeat "Amazing".
Seeing the mecha matching session, "Amazing"!
Pilot the mecha yourself, "Amazing"!
Destroy cities and sink islands with your bare hands and then change the planet's landscape, "Amazing" of "Amazing"!
Especially when they had a PVP duel, the sturdy feel reminded them of "Pacific Rim", "Mobile Suit Gundam", "Six Gods", and "Transformers".
Their childhood dreams came true 120%, and they couldn't help but shout that this is a mecha!
Players began to pick out their own mechas and began to use various methods to improve the strength of their mechas. The PVP session became extremely lively, with both 1v1 and 5v5 reaching the level of seconds.
Millions of mechas battled at the same time, and various fighting styles emerged one after another, allowing some people to slowly gain the strength to challenge AI mechas.
But not including Lao Wang.
After trying secretly for a day, Lao Wang found that he seemed to be a little far away from being a genius.
A normal genius would have killed the AI mecha at this point, but he could only survive five rounds now.
He also watched a lot of clearance videos, and he also learned various routines and styles, but every time after watching it, he felt that he was good at it, but he still got beaten up when he deserved it.
What made him unable to hold back the most was a private message from an old acquaintance of his, Daidailong.
[Old Wang, don’t be autistic, come out with me and challenge the AI mecha of "Qi Ling"! It’s difficult, but I’ve passed it, and you can do it too. 】
Daidailong is half of Lao Wang's descendant. He was always Daidai when he debuted, and he is still Daidai now.
Although I had long known that Slowpoke had some gaming talents, I didn't expect that the other party had already passed the audition and got the ticket.
Especially the phrase "You can do it too" made Lao Wang break his guard and finally make a difficult decision.
He called Fang Cheng.
He agreed to commentate on the game.
He got his air ticket and overtime pay, and he can go to the United States!
After getting the ticket through this method, he sorted out his emotions and said to Daidailong: [Don't worry, I'm fine. But forget about this challenge, I have to be a commentator, let this opportunity be given to others. 】
[As expected of Lao Wang, he is so awesome! Then I'll go prepare my luggage and see you in the United States. 】
【See you in the United States. 】
After recovering, Lao Wang let out a sigh of relief and felt that his face had been saved.
Reopening his video, he compared "Fallen Mecha" and "Weapon Spirit" again, and couldn't help laughing happily.
His face was saved.
But some people may not be able to save their face.
