CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 82 COLLABORATIVE PLOT [FREE FRANCE] (2.7K, 12K ACHIEVED TODAY~)

The moment Shen Yan finished imagining the perfect scene, he became conflicted again.

Using dungeons or storyline training from "World War II: Empire’s Rise" is indeed great, but should these keys be made public?

After all, these aren’t his own things; they all belong to Shen Qinghan.

Wanting to enhance the combat capabilities of Great Xia Federation’s soldiers.

He also needs to consult with Shen Qinghan or Zhao Ming to see if these dungeons can be made public, whether the keys are too simple, or if they need encryption.

Moreover...

Since it’s about enhancement, it should definitely prioritize improving the capabilities of their own people first, starting with the Northern Army here.

When it comes to the military district competition... tsk...

Shen Yan’s mind already pictured the expressions of other military district commanders, looking at their soldiers being completely crushed by the Seventh Special Operations Brigade, leaving a smile on his face.

But soon, he became serious again.

After all, he still needed to consult Shen Qinghan and Zhao Ming’s opinions first.

——

On the other side.

Inside Polestar Game Company.

Zhao Ming was focused on the discussions about the "Multiplayer Collaboration Storyline".

In recent days, with the launch of many hidden dungeons, after the initial buzz, Zhao Ming had received no short amount of complaints, as soon as he opened the headline account.

[I trusted you! I finally triggered a storyline, and when I checked, damn, wasn’t this just the ordinary hunter that Old Thief Zhao talked about in the interview? And then... cnm!!!]

[Who says otherwise? Didn’t it say it was just an ordinary tank loader for Kolobanov? Why are there 20 of us, each with a tank?]

[Holy crap? Are you trying to kill me with laughter? Were you part of the 20 in the 1v22?]

[Reborn as "Steel Coffin Experience Class".]

[Seriously, you’d better wear a mask for life, Old Thief Zhao!]

[Hehehe, but I’m different. I triggered the storyline as a loader and watched 20 idiots line up...]

[Isn’t this matching the second-floor comment? You can trigger online play?]

[Wow, you discovered the hidden gameplay?]

Because of "Blitzkrieg Poland", many players sent their blessings, making Zhao Ming feel a bit embarrassed to look at, and during this time the "Emotion Value" hadn’t stopped.

Zhao Ming was checking the Anti-War Competition’s website news.

At this point, the preliminary review selection had ended, and the works that passed the initial selection were now being alternately recommended in the Six Major Federations, and "World War II: Empire’s Rise" was coming up according to the schedule.

The number of players had steadily increased during this time, and the server load chart lines were vertical.

During "Blitzkrieg Poland", the highest online number reached 7.43 million, and with new players from other federations, the million-level servers were no longer enough.

A server upgrade with Shen Qinghan was needed.

And on the official website, the latest timeline had been updated by players uploading the storyline of the empire’s last large-scale bombing of the British Commonwealth.

Afterward, the empire secretly began to withdraw troops, preparing to attack the Eastern Front’s "Blitzkrieg Soviet Union".

However, players don’t know this yet.

Zhao Ming searched the database and found that the ’Operation Barbarossa’ from the empire was at least half a month away, given the current fastest immersive storyline player’s progress.

Seeing this, Zhao Ming was not in a hurry, and started to prepare materials for the early stages of ’Operation Barbarossa’, intending to create some storyline dungeons in the "Multiplayer Collaboration Mode" for players to experience the storyline from multiple perspectives.

——

At this moment.

Celestial Shark Live, game section.

Fang Ming’s livestream room.

Hidden dungeon of the Multiplayer Collaboration Storyline mode "White Reaper" was being livestreamed.

In the game.

Fang Ming lay behind a tree stump, not daring to move, having entered with a team of twenty people, but after half a day, only he and Yu Feng were left.

Fang Ming reached out to pull down his hat, slowly moving out of the tree stump.

Trying to create a false impression for the opposite side.

Yet, the NPC hidden in the snow called Simon Hayer did not pull the trigger.

Seeing this trick didn’t work, Fang Ming couldn’t help but curse under his breath:

"Damn!"

"This is what they call an ordinary hunter?"

"From the comments, I expected this dungeon to be absurd, but who knew it would be this ridiculous?!"

"Where the hell is this guy hiding?"

"Old Yu! Can you do it or not?!"

"You said you were a top-notch sniper champion, so take him out, will you?!"

"Old Yu!!!"

However, there was no response.

Fang Ming felt a chill in his heart, no way?

Where is he?

Meanwhile, the livestream chat was bursting with laughter.

[Stop shouting, Yu Feng has already had his throat slit.]

[This is killing me, searched for the enemy all this time, and it turns out they sneaked up from behind without being noticed.]

[Streamer, you should just kill yourself, otherwise you might get scared to death later.]

[No wonder it’s called White Reaper, apparently no one across the web has cleared it.]

[Not to mention this one, none of the other dungeons have been cleared either.]

[So this is the "ordinary" series, interesting to learn.]

Fang Ming looked at the chat, feeling a chill run down his spine.

If he remembered correctly, Yu Feng was hiding behind him, and if Yu Feng had been slashed...

Hiss——!

Fang Ming’s hair stood on end as he turned to look back.

Bang!

A bullet hit the halfway-turned head of Fang Ming, piercing his temple. The livestream screen instantly plunged into darkness, and Fang Ming’s frustrated voice was heard:

"Damn?!"

"Couldn’t even see what it looked like!!!"

This death was just too frustrating.

Back in the game room.

Now they could communicate normally. Over there, Yu Feng said, feeling a bit exhausted:

"Want to go again?"

In such a realistic battlefield, forget about being an all-around assaulter or a sniper champion; luck is more important than anything.

So many days playing the [Multiplayer Collaboration Plot] mode.

He even stepped on landmines a few times and died... It’s just ridiculous!

On Fang Ming’s side, he was swearing and urging everyone to get ready, looking all excited:

"Come on, let’s do it again."

"Today we triggered a hidden plot, which means our luck isn’t bad."

"If we trigger another hidden plot, maybe we’ll go viral."

During this period, large and small streamers gained quite a bit of traffic from playing World War II: Empire’s Rise, but they were still stuck in place.

It wasn’t right not to be anxious about it.

As Yu Feng was getting ready, Fang Ming initiated the start.

Yu Feng was still talking:

"It’s not that easy to trig... me???"

Fang Ming and the others also looked at the screen with a jolt, did they really trigger it?!

In the livestream room, there was a screen full of question marks, what sort of dumb luck is this?

Unlike ordinary plot entries where missions are issued afterward.

This time when Fang Ming and the others entered the game, a game CG appeared.

The screen slowly displayed.

June 18, 1940.

Everyone looked at this time, it’s the Battle of France there.

Since the official website’s plot timeline had been updated by players’ uploads to nearly May 1941, they were very familiar with the previous plots.

June 18 is just a few days before the French Federation surrendered and became the Vichy Puppet French Government.

Then the screen switched.

Showing the London Broadcasting Building, then a two-meter tall general in French military uniform appeared, reading a declaration in a hoarse voice.

Declaration to the French People

The screen keeps pulling away, and that hoarse general’s voice, with a hint of static, is spreading worldwide through the broadcast.

"France has lost a battle!"

"But France has not lost the entire war!"

"..."

"..."

"One day, the armies of the free world will crush all enemies."

"When that day comes, France shall triumphantly return."

"..."

"..."

"Long live France!"

As the broadcast spread, scenes flashed by, showing furious puppet government officials, surprised French officers, and people cheering on the streets.

Meanwhile, the viewers in the livestream room were also stunned.

[Goodness, so someone in France is still resisting? I thought the whole country had surrendered?]

[Plot completion, this is nice.]

[In previous stories, I never heard of such a person?]

[Duh, it’s a hidden plot, of course, you’ve never heard of it.]

[But the whole of France has fallen, what’s the use of this broadcast?]

[Who knows, just watch the plot.]

At this time.

The game CG’s screen switched to the African continent.

Displaying the words [West Africa], followed by Cameroon.

Douala Governor’s Mansion.

In an office.

An old radio crackled intermittently; the voice from the London Broadcasting Building across the Atlantic was already becoming choppy:

"Please join me... to take... action, dedication... sacrifice, hold on to hope."

"..."

"... Long live France!"

Then the screen slowly faded, displaying several large characters.

[Free France: Cameroon Mission]

Then everyone appeared in a room, all fully armed, with task prompts flashing in front of them.

[Please proceed to the Douala Governor’s Mansion to rescue the Governor of Cameroon and escort him to the Douala Port, seize control of the port lighthouse, and guide the arriving French warship into the port.]

[Note: This event determines the fate of Free France.]
