Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 518: Chapter 500: So You Know How to Issue Declarations, Huh?!

“Holy shit, are they insane?”

At the edge of the floating island, the onlookers couldn’t believe their eyes as they saw over a thousand members of the Grand Alliance charging towards an enemy group several times larger than them.

“Should we go help them?”

“Honestly, by the time we get there, they’d have been wiped out several times over, right?”

“We still have to help! If they’re wiped out, we’ll be next! When the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold!”

“Screw that! Just dismantle the elevator, and let them come!”

…

With a strong determination, Camille Victoria called out, “Let’s help them! Even if we can’t beat them, we must help!”

“Those who are willing to help go together. Those who don’t like to fight stay and guard our base!”

After that, she took the lead and was the first to leap off the floating island.

Hardcore fans quickly followed suit, and more viewers, audience members, and curious netizens from the live streaming rooms went along as well.

However, things didn’t quite go as they had imagined…

When they got close, they saw the players of the Grand Alliance chasing their enemies like rabbits.

Many of the gathered players, though standing together, only shared a common goal and lacked a unified command. As a result, their fighting was chaotic and disorganized, scattering with the first charge.

Some charged forward, wanting a fierce battle; others thought they should slow down, not getting too far in front; and there were even those who didn’t want to charge at all and thought they should retreat, “avoiding the sharp edge.”

As a result, those who charged were crushed immediately.

Those who charged slowly were crushed in the next wave.

Those who didn’t move and tried to run were chased and slashed like rabbits by the Grand Alliance players.

Many people screamed out obscenities and met a miserable end, but before being wiped out, they didn’t forget to send a threatening message: “You just wait, I’ll be back!!”

By the time Camille Victoria and her group arrived, Second Injury was already shouting, “Gather the spoils of war! Turn around, rear line becomes front line, prepare to face the enemy!”

Players who could have attacked their rear missed their chance because of the Grand Alliance’s ferocious push.

By the time they reacted and rushed to help, this side was already cleaning up the mess, and they failed to take advantage of the situation.

Instead, they ended up being easy targets and got hit hard!

“Advance! Crush them!” Second Injury sacrificially used his vocal cords to command.

In such a large-scale player melee, team channels and voice commands can be used for coordination, but the problem is this: in such a high-level battle, players are unlikely to execute very detailed commands.

Having a team of more than 100 players and expecting to micromanage them is wishful thinking!

Are players actually military personnel?

The only effective command method in this case was to divide into teams, point to a direction, and kill everything in the way as they progressed.

With over a thousand players, there was no need to split into teams. Just point in a direction and kill until all enemies were eliminated, or they were eliminated by the enemy!

This was the players’ large-scale combat mode.

Under these circumstances, the role of tactical commands was largely to boost morale and convey strength.

Therefore, a “passionate, loud voice” was the core skill of commanding.

Seeing Second Injury’s passionate command and the ferocious, bloodthirsty fighting style of the Grand Alliance players, Camille Victoria, Shuihua, Queenie, Nandong, and others were all taken aback.

Camille Victoria really wanted to post a message: [Request: I came to support my comrades-in-arms, but they’ve already killed all the enemies. How can I relieve the awkwardness? I’m waiting online, urgently!]

Fortunately, their allies quickly noticed them, and Second Injury sent a private message. When they had forged the alliance earlier, the “country leaders” had naturally established communication methods—adding friends.

“We’ll kill clockwise, you guys kill counterclockwise, split into two groups and kill until we meet!”

“Don’t worry, they don’t have a commander and are a loose bunch. Just charge and we’re good!”

“Oh, okay.” Camille Victoria nodded subconsciously in agreement.

She then led her group of players to turn and face the incoming enemies from another direction.

The first wave of clashes was quite intense, with a casualty ratio of almost one-to-one on both sides.

As the front lines fell, Camille Victoria’s side maintained a high level of combat power and enthusiasm for battle.

The opposing side, composed of scattered players, quickly faltered.

As the battle continued, it soon turned back into a slaughter!

Surrounding the valley, everyone held iron swords, fighting side by side with their teammates as they pursued the enemy!

Originally focused on finding enchantment books in her Personal World, studying how to enhance her weapons and armor, Lin Shun joined the battle near Shuihua after receiving the combat alert.

Although he wielded a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, he wasn’t interested in slashing people. Instead, he kept his eyes on Shuihua the whole time.

Whoever wanted to slash Shuihua would receive a shield strike to the face from him.

At first, Shuihua was a bit hesitant, but soon she found that the more she fought, the smoother it went, and she was having a blast!

As she continued fighting, she even felt that she might be a latent martial arts genius!

“Maybe I should enroll in a martial arts academy after the college entrance examination?” Shuihua muttered softly.

Amidst the chaotic battle, only Lance heard her words. He couldn’t help but grin and wanted to retort: If it wasn’t for my protection, you would’ve been killed eight times by now.

But on second thought, he held back.

Given Shuihua’s personality, even if she really did enroll in a class, she probably wouldn’t last a week.

Martial arts training in the early stages is incredibly tedious and difficult. The former VR professional players have all undergone some related training.

Besides, if Shuihua could really persevere and learn some real skills, that would be a good thing, too!

At least she wouldn’t be easily bullied by others.

With this in mind, Lance suddenly got fired up!

He started to cover for Shuihua more subtly, swinging his sword faster, creating more critically injured enemies for Shuihua to harvest, and enhancing her self-perception as a “martial arts expert”.

It was much more exhausting than simply using a large shield to smack others.

By the time their two armies merged, Lance was too tired to talk.

But Shuihua excitedly shook Lance’s arm: “I’m so strong!”

“Did you see that? I’m amazing! No one could even hit me!”

Seeing Shuihua’s endless laughter, Lance was happy too, nodding in agreement: “Yes, yes, I saw it, you’re amazing!”

Camille Victoria, on the other hand, felt that she had suffered severe psychological damage and retreated.

During the recent battle, she hadn’t even managed to kill a few people before her teammates surrounded her, claiming to protect her while crazily stealing her kills. She couldn’t get many battles and could only watch others fight.

She had seen Lance and Shuihua’s battles from start to finish, and was almost fed up with their display.

Camille Victoria left her team to join up with Second Injury on the other side.

The battle was already over – not only had their current fight ended, but all of tonight’s battles might be over as well-

Around them, countless players were converging to surround the fleeing enemy.

These players came from other Public Worlds specifically to join Second Injury’s army and turn Public World No. 57 into a world of peace.

However, they arrived later than the invasion force, just in time for the cleanup.

But their arrival created a net that trapped any fleeing enemies.

Once the battle was completely over, they would also settle in this world.

By then, while not fully occupying the server’s player capacity, the majority of players desiring peaceful gameplay would be on this world.

At that time, a relatively peaceful environment would naturally form, and troublemakers would be more inclined to switch to another Public World.

By then, Second Injury’s boastful “World Peace Declaration” would have seen the light of success!

*

Ever since Second Injury’s declaration climbed onto the hot topic list, the movements in Public World No. 57 had been closely watched, with many small anchors going there to live-stream.

During the battle, numerous media outlets posted real-time updates on the war situation.

Text, pictures, videos – all were vivid and detailed.

As the battle ended, casual players who longed for peace cheered, and an even larger migration wave flooded into Public World No. 57.

Then a system prompt popped up:

[The current Public World has reached maximum player capacity and cannot be entered temporarily.]

The Public World was packed!

Novelty, regret, excitement – various emotions echoed among the players. The flames of war in Public World No. 57 had subsided for now, but the online discussions were far from over.

Just then, another post surfaced, igniting the player circle once more:

[Free Players Grand Alliance declares to all “My World” players!]

“Today, the Free Players Grand Alliance formally declares:

All players who have purchased the game naturally have the right to play freely!

On the premise of not breaking the law or rules, no person or organization has the right to infringe upon the right to freely choose their gaming style!

Any behavior that forcibly harms others, morally kidnaps, obstructs other players, and destroys their gaming experience is unjust!

“Peace” should not be the only way to play “My World” – the pleasures of “chaos and combat” should also be fully respected!

We officially call for all players who love combat, are willing to risk their lives, and enjoy the thrill of free gaming to collectively transfer to Public World No. 22!

Let’s have an unrestrained, no-limits, do-or-die battle!

Let us wage war until the end of the world!”
