Chapter 168 – Clash Of Game Settings

In the famous console game “Battlefield of Chaos”, a female character stood in the middle of the road, equipped with only the initial equipment and not moving. An enemy sniper walked by and shot her dead immediately, then walked over excitedly to check out the remains of the dead character.

“Mmm? Why are there no equipment drops? Could there really be idiots who enter the game without purchasing any equipment first?” muttered the player who was playing the sniper character. He found that there was no equipment drops on the dead character and proceeded to search nearby. Some players would remove their equipment before they died as they “would rather die in vain than let the enemy loot them”.

However, despite searching for some time, the sniper still did not find any equipment and quickly left.

In the meantime, the player who controlled the female character stood in front of the computer, his mind full of doubts as he looked at his game score.

“Battlefield of Chaos” was a very interesting game. He was playing in single-player chaos mode, where the battlefield was divided into two camps, East and West. The terrain included mountains, plains, swamps, and housing areas. The two different camps would fight to infiltrate the opposing camp, and the fights would continue until one of them lost.

The purchase mechanism of the game was such that players would buy various different equipment to fight before they revived. The higher the score they achieved before they died, the more purchase resources they received upon dying.

However, the powerful equipment a player purchased could also be robbed by other players, though not only limited to enemies. Allies from the same camp could also steal the equipment possibly because they were “new to the game”—although such players could be reported, the game experience would already have been ruined.

The player who controlled the female character had just purchased a bulletproof jeep equipped with a light machine gun with the funds he received upon dying previously. He was just about to gather a few of his teammates to rush into the enemy’s base to kill all of the enemies when the game crashed as soon as they entered the game.

Logging back into the game, he discovered that not only did the light machine gun and jeep disappear, but all of his other equipment—bulletproof vest, pistol, assault rifle and more—were missing! He had never heard of players being robbed of their equipment when they were alive!

“Where’s my equipment and character…?”

——————

Thrilling!

In the instance mission of the “Six Reincarnations”, Ren Suo controlled the female character and blasted all the mobs in the instance mission with the light machine gun that had virtually unlimited bullets. Even the obstructing ‘wall’ was tragically blasted apart by the machine gun!

After all, in “Battlefield of Chaos”, machine guns were inconvenient and expensive weapons, although their destructive power was absolutely terrifying. Concentrated shots could blast through ordinary walls, and apart from an armored tank, even a jeep could be blown apart by the machine gun.

Simply put, the machine gun had the special capability of being able to ‘destroy buildings’!

However, Ren Suo had not expected that the capabilities of the equipment in “Battlefield of Chaos” could be perfectly reproduced in the martial arts game “Fate of the Century” from Jiayuan.com!

Needless to say, the jeep was able to knock people dead, and the bullets from the machine gun shot through the characters’ armor with 100% effectiveness. Nonetheless, Ren Suo knew that the walls in such martial arts games were usually ‘non-existent’—they were simply pure 2D overlays.

On the other hand, in “Battlefield of Chaos”, the walls were real and possessed attributes like the surface area of collision, which was why they were able to be shot through by bullets.

However, as the machine gun swept across the battlefield in “Fate of the Century”, the 2D overlays which could not have been destroyed were now penetrated by the machine gun as if they were upgraded with 3D attributes!

The original style of “Battlefield of Chaos” was already quite unlike “Fate of the Century”, but under the unparalleled stitching ability of Irina, “Fate of the Century” was forced to follow the rules of “Battlefield of Chaos”, resulting in changes to its own data.

It was almost as if the little princess Irina was telling the server: I will do just as I wish, so you should take care of the rest yourself.

And then the server also took care of itself, by changing the real data to suit Irina!

Originally, the 25-person challenge of the instance mission “Six Reincarnations” required three hours to complete, with countless small monster bosses along the way. However, with the jeep and its equipped machine gun, all the monsters, who relied on martial arts and brick fortresses, could do nothing to hinder the progress of the jeep!

The most Ren Suo needed to do was to reload bullets occasionally. For an instance mission which usually took three hours to complete, Ren Suo reached the boss, ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’, in less than five minutes!

Irina: [The corrupt twin is disguised as him!]

Incidentally, Irina was also disguised as the female character sitting in the driver’s seat and maneuvering the jeep. After all, Ren Suo could not continue controlling the jeep as he operated the light machine gun.

That was also the second surprising discovery Ren Suo made: Irina was also one of the characters he could control. Although that was only one additional command unit, Ren Suo thought that it opened up many more possibilities.

However, at this moment, the level of ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ suddenly began rising, soaring to level 999 instantaneously!

And his speed was so fast that his character left a trail of afterimages as he rushed towards the front of the jeep in an instant!

[Severe a thousand heads and devour a hundred bones!]

‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ used a knife and not a sword. In a slash of light, the jeep was dealt with -99999 damage!

Undoubtedly, the jeep exploded directly—the mobile equipment in “Battlefield of Chaos” did not have the setting of being ‘severed’, so the result of receiving too much damage was a direct explosion!

However, there was still a certain delay before the severing explosion and there was sufficient time for Ren Suo to control the female character to get off the jeep while picking up the assault rifle at the same time. He aimed the rifle at the head of ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’.

“Battlefield of Chaos” was an FPS console game played with a game controller. However, the control of a controller was much less accurate and precise than that of a keyboard and mouse. In order to ease the learning curve when a player was first starting out in the game, the game system would automatically help the player to calibrate the aiming when the player was shooting.

At the same time, once the player entered the aiming interface, the system would position the crosshair directly on the enemy’s head!

It was almost like a gift from “Holy Priest: Survival Battle”!

“Bang, bang, bang—”

‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ was naturally extremely fast, and his defense was even unreasonably stronger. On the screen, Ren Suo saw dozens of buffs stated in the status column below the boss’s HP bar.

Previously, Ren Suo had glanced through the skills in “Fate of the Century” quickly, and he only recognized a few of the boss’s buffs as the strongest skills of some of the martial arts sects. He did not recognize the rest of the buffs but it was only likely to be strong and not weak ones.

Irina had mentioned that the corrupt twin could make use of all of the existing data in the server, including NPCs, players, and even the GM, although the changes made at the GM level were essentially erasure at the data level and was invalid for data other than those on that particular server.

You are already the GM of “Fate of the Century”, and you still wish to obliterate a character from “Battlefield of Chaos”?

In the end, only physical skills with visible effects were effective, and those skills also had to comply with the basic physical rules set by the server to take effect.

A bullet shot out of the rifle chamber with a trace of smoke. Even though ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ was extremely fast and high-leveled, he was still not fast enough—he could not avoid the bullet!

Jingles sounded in the air to signify the layers of ability armor of ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ being penetrated through.

Based on the rules of the game, the boss’s invisible armor was recognized, but in the same physical environment, it was still unable to stop the penetration by bullets!

‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ scrambled to dodge the bullets, but his movement speed could not be faster than that of bullets. In addition, with the system-assisted tracking, Ren Suo virtually crushed the boss into nothing with ease.

When Ren Suo’s magazine was empty, the HP of ‘Dragon King, Gu Shenwei’ also emptied. It died.
