Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch Chapter 191 – The Secret to a Perfect Ending

Chapter 191: Chapter 189: The Secret to a Perfect Ending

Weekends are naturally the most active time for players.

Lincoln pays close attention to two anchors: Camille Victoria and Super Tomato, who have finally reached the final stage of the mainline.

Unlike the heavy-duty players who are keen on rushing progress, they prefer to explore the game and find more interesting ways to play.

For example, Super Tomato’s “Virtual House Decoration Contest” has already ended, and the video has achieved great results.

But every day when he live-streams the game, he still accepts many players’ invitations to visit their virtual houses.

Camille Victoria is the same, often playing with her eight group friends.

There is just one thing that leaves her speechless – in the first few days, she had the status of a “big shot” and often accepted invitations to help others with their tasks in her world.

But after just three days, she lost her “big shot” status and became the person who followed others, shouting “666.”

Although both Camille Victoria and Super Tomato have reached the final stage of the mainline mission, their situations are quite different –

Super Tomato sits beside Old Daddy Cross, whose leg is injured and arm wrapped in bandages.

He has basically lost his combat ability and needs a long time to heal fully. Now he can only help with some auxiliary work, and Super Tomato must fight alone in the upcoming battles.

Camille Victoria’s situation is much better. Not only is Old Daddy Cross intact, but Firefox also follows her.

All three are now at Old Daddy Cross’s base.

But unlike Super Tomato who has to install rat bombs by himself, Camille Victoria is much more relaxed.

She sits with Firefox, calmly watching Old Daddy and the white-bearded old man assemble a bomb, while she sips her drink contentedly.

Camille Victoria really has no pressure at all.

Based on the information available about “Assassin’s Alliance,” Old Daddy Cross has a sky high combat power in the game.

It’s just that in the normal mainline missions, he faces his own foolish sons, so his power isn’t fully utilized.

As for Firefox, her combat power is second only to that of Cross, placing her among the strongest in the alliance.

With these two strong supports and rat bombs to lower the difficulty, Camille Victoria doesn’t feel any pressure and has no tension that a big battle is approaching.

However, she forgets that “Assassin’s Alliance” has dynamic difficulty adjustment.

If players team up, their technical skills may be excellent and hard to quantify. Thus, the help provided might outweigh the increased difficulty from the game, making it relatively easier to pass through.

But how powerful Cross and Firefox are has been set by the System, so adjusting the difficulty dynamically won’t be that easy!

Of course, considering how much effort players have put in to keep these two critical NPCs alive, they will definitely play a significant role and showcase spectacular battle performances as a reward for their hard work. Giving positive feedback to players is always a top priority.

But the difficulty will still be very high because the perfect ending should have a corresponding challenge.

It’s impossible to make the final battle in the game setting a one-sided massacre by the NPCs, while players just watch.

What would be the fun in that?

The outcome of Super Tomato’s “Old Dad Alive” is not very difficult.

After getting on the train, Super Tomato didn’t fire a single shot but was held down by Cross. Tomato immediately called for his father without hesitation, avoiding any father- son conflict.

However, this led to another outcome – a large number of mercenaries led by Firefox began attacking them, and the real assassins from the alliance also appeared one after another.

The crazy train explosion that derailed the train was also a reserved episode.

In this outnumbered and chaotic situation, Cross was shot twice to protect Super Tomato, but still managed to escape with him to their hideout.

The battle was tough, but changing Cross’s storyline wasn’t very difficult.

In comparison, achieving Camille Victoria’s outcome where both Old Daddy and Firefox survive and even have Firefox jump sides before the final battle started is much more difficult!

Camille Victoria couldn’t even figure out what exact steps she took correctly.

There are no related strategies online yet. It’s like a black box – players can only follow their intuition.

very few people succeed, mostly fewing on luck.

Many players even repeatedly delete their files and replay the game just to achieve the “perfect ending” where both Old Daddy and Firefox survive.

Lincoln, however, used a method that ordinary people would never think of or even consider somewhat sly –

In his setting, the key to Firefox’s survival doesn’t lie in the player’s dialogue options or a specific hidden branch mission. It is in the length of time spent together with Firefox after players thoroughly understand her background story.

If players communicate and chat more with Firefox, learn about her background story, and complete more missions together, their bond and Firefox’s trust in the player will become stronger once a certain threshold is exceeded.

Then, when the leader of the alliance points out that the player’s name has appeared on the Destiny Weaver and orders Firefox to kill them, she hesitates.

After Cross presents evidence of Sloan’s forgery, Firefox will decide whether to believe the player or the alliance during the major choice. She will lean towards the player.

This will lead to the perfect ending in which both Old Daddy Cross and Firefox survive.

The reason Camille Victoria achieved the current outcome is not that she guessed anything right. Instead, she simply enjoyed spending time with Firefox.

During missions, Camille Victoria would always invite Firefox whenever possible and seize the opportunity to engage in idle chats.

The NPCs’ dialogue capabilities in “Assassin’s Alliance” are much stronger and smarter than chatbots.

Camille Victoria simply enjoyed their conversations.

She accidentally walked the path to the perfect ending through sheer luck!

In a way, it’s like fools have their fortune.

But before achieving the perfect ending, Camille Victoria still has to face a battle.

A battle that she has never seen from other players, an extremely oppressive one!

Camille Victoria casually drives the car to the textile factory’s gate, still not feeling any tension.

Because she knows that, according to pioneer players’ findings, as long as she doesn’t hit the factory gate in reverse, the people inside won’t start shooting.

But this time – the situation is different!

As soon as she stops the car outside the textile factory, still 30 meters from the gate, her [Assassin’s Bloodline] skill activates suddenly without warning following the crisp sound of shattering glass!

The world slows down, allowing her to see the thing that shattered the glass a steel-core armor-piercing bullet as long as a finger!
