The Tide will end within seven days, mission rewards will be sent to player accounts within 24 hours...

The clock tower bathed in the morning light was like a torch lit on the ruins, burning the hive of the Mutant Slime Mold into ashes.

This battle almost exhausted the entire ammunition stock of the Shelter 404.

Leaving aside the 7mm bullets, nearly 1,000 20mm armor-piercing, high-explosive, and incendiary shells were used. The 88mm mortar shells were fired repeatedly regardless of cost.

Whatever it was Chu Guang didn’t feel like it was a loss.

They wouldn’t grow stronger if they didn’t get rid of the Hive.

The huge fiscal deficit was certainly worrying, but the military production capacity of the Shelter 404 had also reached an unprecedented height under the stimulation of silver coins.

At present, the daily production of full-power 7mm caliber bullets could reach a maximum capacity of 200,000 rounds. They could produce nearly 5 tons of them if they had enough supplies.

With the deployment of a large number of Lance guns, Steel Plant 81 had completed the mass production of 20mm armor-piercing bullets, greatly reducing production costs.

Currently, the directors of Steel Plant 81 were trying to improve the mass production of 2 more complex shells, the high-explosive shell and the incendiary shell. They believed that it would happen in the near future.

Once war broke out, the ammunition would become the Shelter 404’s strongest source of assurance!

After the battle…

NPCs wearing protective clothing went to the battlefield to recover the corpses, and the mission of removing the remaining mutants was handed over to the guards. The players left the front line one after another.

Clones needed to rest.

Many players fought fiercely all night, relying on the soaring adrenaline to support the Fatigue Debuff. When the excitement faded, many people began to feel exhausted.

Injured players returned to the shelter, while the healthy players found a nearby nurturing cabin to log off.

As for the players who died in battle or died of serious injuries, they were kicked out of the server a long time ago.

No matter which section of the official website it was, it was very lively at the moment.

Tail: Damn it… Why was I assigned to Company C? I didn’t even get to see what the boss looks like! (ó﹏ò｡)

The formation of troops was randomly assigned.

In order to ensure that each echelon had enough combat power, Chu Guang asked Little Seven to assign players in such a way that all the other companies had the same percentage of awakened players except for Company A, which served as the vanguard and had the largest percentage of awakened players.

Of course, the players had no way of knowing this.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, not being assigned to the most exciting and dangerous front line was simply a shame.

Sisi: The most important thing is to participate. We also killed 3 Tyrants, which is already very good. (Headpat)

Mosquito: A Tyrant is nothing, I got the kills of the 2 bosses and the First Blood Server Announcement! Hahahaha! It’s so cool!

Darkest: Motherfucker! You even have the audacity to mention this?! You stole my kill! I almost got it!

Makka Pakka: Exactly! It’s too shameless! Even I also think it’s too much!

Quit Bullshit: Don’t be immoral like an animal!

Mosquito: I don’t care what you think! I got the kill already. Nothing else is important. (Smirk)

There was no suspense as Mosquito earned the MVP title of the battle.

Those 2 100-kilogram aerial bombs that fell from the sky blasted the Tide’s node creatures into scum, and it basically reversed the tide of battle.

He was actually the best player, but his act of stealing the final kill of the boss was truly a little shameless.

No matter how people thought about it, there was no need to hit the boss with the glider. Players on the front line would obviously complain about it.

But would Mosquito care?

Obviously not.

It was his glider after all. He could do anything he wanted to.

Not to mention that he had long been used to other people’s complaints.

Spring Water Commander: Honestly, I was just wondering if your glider has landing gear…

𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Mosquito: What do you mean if it has a landing gear?! How else did I slide down from the building if my glider doesn’t have that? Besides, wouldn’t the bombs in the belly of the hanger touch the ground without a landing gear?! But then again, I later found out that having it was pointless. There is no pitot tube and gyroscope, and I can’t see a thing on the ground while in the air. Not to mention a lack of runway… Even if there was, I wouldn’t be able to land safely. I might as well crash into something meaningful and go out with a bang.

Athlete Foot: It’s not that I want to criticize you, but your small 7mm water pipe is too lame. Why don’t you just use the 20mm autocannon? Don’t you think it’s much cooler?

Bathroom Goer: Exactly! Don’t you want to use a 37mm cannon? We can modify it for you! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Mosquito: Go away, it’s none of your business, okay? It’s just a cannon. It’s not like I don’t know how to make it!

Athlete Foot: Oh you do?! Lmao.

Bathroom Goer: Yes! He’s clearly bragging!

Mosquito: @￥#%!

Taking off could be said to be the easiest step of flying a plane. All he needed to do was to lift up the nose of the plane once it was traveling fast enough. The plan would either take off, or it wouldn’t.

But landing a high-speed flying plane would be much more difficult!

Speed, altitude, angle, and a flat runway were indispensable. However, the wooden plane didn’t even have an instrument panel.

Regardless, the imperfect flight experience was not entirely a bad thing for Mosquito. Although he crashed the glider, it also provided him with valuable experimental data and flying experience.

He was confident that he would do better next time.

As for the price?

He only needed to stay in the forum for 3 days! It was no big deal at all!

The discussion quickly derailed from the original topic, and the thread soon became a battleground between Steel Plant 81 and Goblin Technology.

Replies such as who made the 88mm gun barrel, and only sissies played with 20mm water pipes, along with only real me uses large-caliber rockets popped up one after another. The 3 of them continued their shit slinging contest on the forum without a care in the world.

But what was incredible was that they could argue with reasons and evidence, giving all sorts of citations.

Most people couldn’t join in their fight, so they went to other posts one after another. However, Mosquito and the factory directors still managed to make the post the hottest topic of discussion just by shitting on each other.

Later, some knowledgeable cloud gamers joined the discussion and offered their opinions, making the discussion more and more complicated,

If it was an ordinary forum, the moderators would have already locked the post.

Unfortunately, there was no such rule for Wasteland Online.

The post had thousands of replies, but it still showed no signs of stopping. Even after the 3 stopped arguing, the post continued to receive replies one after another.

Lightning_emperor_professor_yang: Sigh, having a strong backing really makes a difference. You can talk about anything on this forum.

The_extrajudicial_lunatic_Guevara: It’s not a question of whether they have a strong backing or not. The server hosting this forum is a little strange. My hacker buddy once tried to hack into the server on a whim, but he failed miserably.

Jarvan_IV_Tony_Ooki: What’s more strange is that the complaints related to this website, no matter whether they go through external or internal channels, will never come to fruition. Even if the government is too lazy to manage it, they would still blacklist a site like this. Therefore, since this website is not on the blacklist, it most likely has a strong background.

This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do: Hehe, a strong background my ass. It’s just an illegal website, and it’s under the jurisdiction of the cyber security division at most. Do you really think that high-ranking government officials have nothing better to do than monitor a website like this? Get real.

Regardless of whether there were people at the top of the government backing this site, it was not something that ordinary players would know.

Maybe it had existed for a long time, maybe it hadn’t, or maybe the 100% real virtual reality game itself was a testing ground for a mysterious research institution.

Otherwise, it was impossible to explain why the game was full of domestic players, and there was no language barrier between them.

Of course, only players who had obtained the test qualification and cloud gamers who had filled out the application form would consider questions like that. For those who were purely on the forum to have fun, they found the existence of the game the biggest controversy.

To say that it didn’t exist, the promotional video would prove otherwise.

But to say it existed… It was still an urban legend circulated in the game circle. The discussion of the game was still not as hot as the

metaverse

.

Discussions on the topic would always be hot, and neither side would be convinced by the other party.

Just as the post derailed from the original topic even more, an announcement on the official website was suddenly updated at the very top of the page.

It was another promotional video, and, and it was published by Xiao Qi.

Although the video was only 3 minutes long, it condensed all the wonderful moments of the Tide Battle the night before, including every shot from the sky to the land. There was no boring moment at all!

It was no exaggeration to say that every shot in the video was a work of art!

Every frame was top-notch!

Although the bloody and gruesome part was fine-tuned technically, it did not affect the viewing experience. Whether it was the particle effect, or the sharp lines on the blue exoframe, they were all so realistic that people couldn’t find any flaws.

This time, This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do even posted again in less than an hour instead of disappearing like he usually would after being slapped in the face.

This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do: Hehe, keep lying...

- If this is the actual gaming footage, I will live-stream myself eating shit!
