Chapter 154: Chapter 152 “Ten Commandments for Newbies”

“Mavis, have we received many emails from foreign countries asking for cooperation?” Lincoln asked Mavis curiously.

Mavis had mentioned receiving emails from foreign countries requesting cooperation before, but since Lincoln was too busy, he let Mavis reply to them using a standard template.

Basically, it was “Thank you for your interest, but we are currently unable to expand into overseas markets. When we have the capacity, we will seriously consider your proposal.”

As for when they would have the capacity and whether to accept or not, they would decide when the time comes.

But honestly, even if he already knew that there would be many scammers and inexplicable organizations coming to request cooperation, Lincoln never thought that a leader of a foreign gang would come to him like this.

It’s absolutely outrageous!

If he had known that there were such outrageous cooperation request emails, he would definitely want to see them himself! This was just too interesting!

He even looked through the reader comments under this interview with great interest.

As expected, the comments were explosive!

Basically, no one cared about what the media said in the beginning, they were all discussing this Black dude from Baltimore.

“Tell me out loud what the most profitable thing to smuggle in America is now! ”

“In this lifetime, have you ever risked your life for a person (crossed out) a gaming console?”

“On that day, I held two Glocks, killing my way from the Baltimore seaport to the city center without even blinking, all for today’s cooperation! Lincoln, you better know what’s good for you! Dog head”

“Epic: I’ll give him an offer he can’t refuse! ‘Cocking the pistol’

“Are you kidding, with Lincoln’s temper, is he someone who would take threats?”

“Agree! If he really dared to do that, I seriously suspect that Lincoln would directly put up ten thousand brand new Mirages for sale, with free global shipping, to have a bounty on his head!”

“Isn’t it better to go overseas and deal with him personally?”

“Isn’t it better to hack his phone remotely and blow him up while he’s making a call?”

“Are you guys getting too carried away? Is this guy bragging? Can a Baltimore gang have 1800 pistols and 420 automatic rifles? It’s hard to say if the police have that much firepower?! ”

“I guess there’s an element of bragging, but there must be plenty of real ones too! Look at how smooth he is with hand grenades, he must have practiced it in real life. But he didn’t mention having hand grenades in the beginning!”

“American gun stores don’t sell hand grenades, right? I remember their laws don’t allow the buying and selling of hand grenades.”

“America doesn’t allow it, but there are other places that do! It’s a well-known seaport city like Baltimore. Who knows if there are any special channels?”

“Besides, it’s not hard to buy explosive materials, and it’s not like they can’t make homemade bombs using their hands-on skills.”

The heat of this interview is still rapidly rising, and the comment section is lively beyond belief. Lincoln found the perspectives of the netizens fascinating.

However, despite enjoying the spectacle, he would never respond to this matter.

The Mirage is in high demand overseas, but this phenomenon of console scarcity won’t last forever.

— Of course, taking advantage of the situation to make a fortune now is entirely doable, but it’s not worth it.

Especially with all the fanfare created by this guy, it’s even more impossible.

Indeed, Cloud Dream could do this. They could go through the normal customs procedure, export the Mirage consoles to the Baltimore seaport, where Epic would pick up the goods, sell a batch of high-priced consoles for huge profits, and then split the money together.

But the damage to their reputation from doing this would be too great. This would be like directly cutting the gamers’ leeks.

It’s even suspicious of pulling out the leeks by the roots, and cooperating with a gang to pull the leeks! Isn’t it like throwing mud at themselves?

For Lincoln’s ultimate goal, Cloud Dream’s reputation and trust from the public are critical assets.

So, he’d have to be crazy to get involved in this kind of thing.

But this doesn’t stop him from enjoying the show…

He didn’t put down the tablet until he finished his breakfast with reluctance.

Atter washing the dispes and seeing that there was still time, Lincoln picked up the tablet again. ‘Mavis, show me the beginner’s guide they’ve summarized.” “Alright!” Mavis agreed, and the web page automatically redirected.

Lincoln found that it was a familiar person—this guide was made by Super Tomato.

This top video uploader used to produce various types of video content, with games being just one of them, and not even the majority.

But now he’s practically become a game-specific uploader, primarily for Cloud Dream games.

He would livestream as soon as he had time, and the lifestyle, music, or creative videos that used to come out weekly haven’t been updated for weeks now.

His fans were starting to revolt.

And when he finally released a new video, it was still about games!

Title: “A Must-Watch for Assassins’ Alliance Beginners! Ten Essential Points to Know Before Joining the Game!”

Upon entering the game, be sure to search the house and take the 250 startup funds directly!

Don’t worry about saving face for your virtual partner; you’ll know why later.

And once you do, you’ll definitely thank me!

Besides the amusement park area, the game can accommodate a maximum of 10 people playing together.

Remember this: there’s strength in numbers!—at least in most situations.

Only by holding an item for more than 20 minutes can you gain ownership, otherwise, items will drop after death.

This only applies to handheld items—you can’t gain ownership of a store by holding someone else’s business license for twenty minutes.

Don’t dream.

The city’s name is Metropolis, and you must think thrice before robbing any building with the “Metropolis” prefix in their name!

If you insist on taking action, make sure you have enough firepower!

Don’t provoke Metropolis police easily.

They might have unlimited firepower, and the most miserable way to die so far is being hit by a rocket from an armed helicopter piloted by Metropolis police.

It’s reasonable to suspect they have missiles too.

And don’t provoke the Metropolis gang even more easily.

Although their firepower seems to have a limit, their hatred-lock is very persistent. Once they’re angered, they will likely chase after you relentlessly.

Even if you go offline and return later, they will still hunt you down to the ends of the earth until they kill you once.

Be cautious about using random matching mode.

Those who come through random matching may not necessarily be your teammates; they could also be psychopaths.

Such people will shoot you mercilessly as soon as they enter your world!

Be careful! Beware of PVP fanatics!

Multiplayer games cannot advance the plot—but not entirely.

You can accept a task first, then team up to defeat all enemies, let your teammates leave, and complete the task afterward.

Of course, the difficulty of multiplayer games will increase accordingly. If you don’t want to suffer, be sure not to team up with a newbie—they’re bound to get wrecked!

—The last part is based on someone else’s experience, definitely not mine!

Fishing is a good skill.
Don’t rob Metropolis Bank! Don’t rob Metropolis Bank! Don’t rob Metropolis Bank!

“Hahahaha…” Lincoln couldn’t help but laugh after reading it.

Was there really someone who dared to rob the city’s largest bank on their first day in the game, with their specialized skill level not even reaching 3?

Where did you guys get the guts from?!

That thing is even harder to beat than the final textile factory in the main missions!
