Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

It\'s not his fault, the rules were set before the start of the competition, and the "shrinking circle" rule for the final was set to be completely random.

So, the situation on the map right now is really pure coincidence.

It\'s just that the current situation, not only has Camille Victoria\'s team been pitied, but even he himself has been pitied too!

Because he promised "Qingjin" brand exposure is the airdrop that\'s about to fall!

In his plan, after the inner circle collapsed, the players would be highly concentrated.

At this time, an airplane would appear, and drop airdrops over the "Qingjin" flagship store located on the core commercial street, and the players would fight around the airdrop, naturally bringing the brand exposure that Qingjin wanted.

The problem is, now in this map with the most star players, highest attention, and strongest program effect, it happened to randomly reach a shrinking circle way in which the earth completely separated...

How can they compete for it now?

Forget it, forget it, Lincoln shook his head.

Right now, there are seven games happening at the same time on seven maps, and after they finish, there are seven more rounds, plus tomorrow there is one final battle, there\'ll be a time for exposure.

It\'s just a little bit less effective in this round...

He feels it\'s a pity mainly because he feels that the upcoming games will probably not be as exciting as this one.

Especially tomorrow\'s final battle, with only 1400 people. The players are indeed looking forward to it, but Lincoln is already a bit tired of the small number of people...

As the event organizer, Lincoln and Cloud Dream have to start preparing for things after the event ends after today\'s competition.

After all, at the very beginning, the purpose of organizing the event was to "let as many players play together as possible."

And now, this purpose has been perfectly achieved.

On the other side of Metropolitan Battlefield, Metropolis Bank.

Players are relieved to find that the bank is not within the range of this round\'s collapse.

But unfortunately, they also find themselves trapped in this area.

As they worry in front of the bank\'s entrance, they hear another distant rumbling sound.

"??? "Everyone looks up at the sky.

"Is the helicopter coming? Be careful and don\'t let it be stolen!"

"No, this doesn\'t sound like it."

Then they see a transport plane flying overhead, followed by an airdrop with a big red parachute slowly falling.

It\'s not far away, it would take a few minutes to get there at full speed by car.

The problem is that there\'s a huge gap between them and the airdrop area, and it\'s impossible to cross.

"I feel like I missed out on 100 million!" Camille Victoria clutched her heart, feeling so painful that she couldn\'t breathe.

"If it\'s meant to be, it\'ll be. If it\'s not meant to be, don\'t force it. Let it go." Xiaomei pulled Camille Victoria back into the bank.

Seeing the current situation and feeling a bit stuck, everyone wondered what they could still do.

In the end, they simply had one person from each team on lookout at the entrance.

The rest of the people all went back to the vault and continued packing money into bags.

Super Tomato\'s Orange Uniform Army strangled a round of scattered players who were marked as passive gamers because this map has always been a team battle, basically playing openly, and the passive gaming light pillar was basically useless.

It only had some effect in the current endgame.

The helicopter even went for an airdrop in hopes of finding weapons to counter the tanks.

The problem was that when Randall and his team designed the airdrop, they were thinking more normally, considering weapons that would be useful for urban battles and small team fights.

Helmet, bulletproof vest, heat sensor, small drone, individual rocket launcher, etc...

These equipment would definitely be powerful in a normal urban battlefield.

But when they were designing, they never thought that they would have to fight tanks in the heart of the city! The Orange Army drove the helicopter and launched a tentative attack on Camille Victoria\'s Blue Uniform Army. However, no one was in the external vehicles, the tanks were blocked at the entrance of the bank, and were almost almost entirely retracted into the bank lobby, only exposing the frontal armor and pointing the barrel towards the sky.

The armed helicopter of the Super Tomato team, like the tanks of Camille Victoria\'s team, was also simplified and castrated, they didn\'t have high-end weapons like anti-tank missiles.

To pierce the frontal armor of a main battle tank with just a 30mm machine gun is not an easy task, especially when the gunfire can only come from the front.

Moreover, a frontal attack would inevitably face the threat of tank shells. Though it would be difficult for the tanks to hit a helicopter under normal circumstances, a 120mm armor-piercing shell would certainly destroy it upon impact.

Adding the sensory acceleration effect of [Assassin Bloodline], the threat becomes even greater.

This brief exchange of fire resulted in the helicopters firing half a chain of bullets from a distance, narrowly avoiding the tank shell that grazed their fuselages, and swiftly retreating from the combat area.

Neither side managed to score.

Next, Super Tomato\'s team considered bringing their team over to the Bank to attack the opponents inside.

However, considering the threat posed by the tanks and the difficulty of storming into the Bank, let alone the even more complicated trench warfare within, they hesitated.

Who knows how many traps the opponents had set up inside the Bank?

-They certainly didn\'t know that during this time, the players inside had only been busy collecting cash, not setting any traps at all.

After weighing all their options, they decided to play it safe and block the core area, waiting for the shrinking circle to eventually eliminate the Bank and their opponents.

Thus, the situation became deadlocked once again.

One group was blocking the core area, waiting for their opponents to perish.

The other group, convinced they were destined for elimination, chose not to struggle, and focused on frantically gathering money inside the Bank

Of course, the main screen of the live broadcast couldn\'t just show them doing nothing, so Director quickly cut to other intense battlefields.

However, these anchors and video uploaders had huge followings, with their main perspective live broadcast attracting millions of netizens who watched them gather money, daydream, and chat idly.

Camille Victoria\'s team, led by the player who originally called for the construction of a golden pyramid, actually started constructing it with a group of players.

Moreover, since they had ample time and the fact that the next shrinking circle luckily spared the Bank again, the golden pyramid grew even larger!

Even the Director couldn\'t resist giving a special shot to showcase this spectacle to all audiences, causing a wave of exclamations in the comments.

But luck can be an unpredictable thing...

With each shrinking circle happening every half an hour, and the final hour having 15-minute intervals between them, it wasn\'t a low frequency.

However, as one remaining area of the Metropolis after another collapsed and disappeared, the Metropolis Bank was spared once more!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Each time, it survived unscathed!

By the time there were only two remaining areas left, most players in Super Tomato\'s team were at their wits\' end!

Even the audience couldn\'t stand watching it anymore!

"Chosen One!"

"Isn\'t this just too outrageous?!"

"It\'s really all about luck for the big wins, huh?"

"I remember an old rumor about Camille Victoria and Lincoln being \'together. I didn\'t believe a word of it back then...

"Ah, now that you mention it, I\'m starting to have doubts too..."

"Doubts? This is definitely confirmed okay!"

"So is this the \'being together\' halo protecting them?"

Lincoln had difficulty remaining calm as he watched the endless barrage of comments, even getting tempted to let Mavis use her room administrator privileges to ban people.

Why do you netizens besmirch his innocence out of nowhere?!

But then he thought, if people started getting banned, that would be the real confirmation...

So in the end, he had no choice but to begrudgingly endure it. 

In any case, the players in Super Tomato\'s team, who initially sat contentedly on their metaphorical fishing seats, now had no confidence left and didn\'t dare gamble on the final outcome with Camille Victoria...

Under the cover of their helicopters, they lined up to cross the fracture at the core and entered the area where Camille Victoria was, preparing for their final battle.

-In fact, cover was completely unnecessary, as Camille Victoria\'s team had no intention of ambushing them.

They didn\'t even bother setting anyone on high ground for surveillance, as they were all engrossed in building the golden pyramid, aiming to make it bigger and higher!

The consensus within Super Tomato\'s team was: rather than entrusting their fate to luck and losing in a vague, unfair manner, they\'d much rather fight a real battle!

At least they would have their destiny in their own hands!
