Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch Chapter 231 – The Astonishing Shrinking Circle”

Chapter 231: Chapter 229: The Astonishing Shrinking Circle”

Yi was filled with regret, but it was just the lament of a defeated dog.

In Cloud Dream’s setting, if you die in battle, you’d be kicked off the map, and there’s really not much to do other than watching your teammates’ first-person live stream and praying for them in your heart.

Communicate tactics?

Non-existent!

Seeing Yi’s reaction, the anxious audience suddenly changed their tune:

“Watch me perform a unique skill: a face change!”

“A Lifetime of Fame”

“I bet the anchor has already thought about his epitaph: Don’t be impulsive!”

“Yi’s family motto: Don’t be impulsive!”

“Wrong! It should be Yi’s family motto: Learn math well!”

Right now, Yi had no mood to pay attention to the comments, he just stared at the screen, using all his strength to pray that his teammates wouldn’t court death.

Perhaps it was his devotion that moved the heavens, as his teammates turned back, drove away from the danger zone, and headed straight to the city center.

Preserving the last spark of hope for the team.

Yi stared straight at his teammates’ actions, hands together, non-stop praying.

However, the commentators’ main focus was on the two teams fighting on the street, and Yi’s team was like a small interlude inserted between them, lightening the atmosphere.

Interesting but not important.

The audience thought the two teams of experts would face off until the end of time, and they were puzzled as to why the director didn’t switch the lens.

Then the time jumped to 10:00.

– Suddenly, a massive change occurred!

At that moment, everyone felt the earth shaking.

The ground was fine, just a bit wobbly for a moment, but the players on the upper floors couldn’t stand steady and fell to the ground.

“What’s going on?”

“Is it an earthquake??”

“There are earthquakes in the game??”

All the surviving players in the 86 virtual battlefields were both puzzled and shocked.

So were the audience.

But this was just the beginning, and the commentators could only explain one sentence according to the script, “At 10 0’clock sharp, the battlefield range began to shrink.”

Then there was an even more violent shake, and a rumbling like thunder in the distance.

Thanks to the first shake as a warning, the players had some preparation, otherwise, they wouldn’t have known how much bad luck the violent shaking would have caused!

The live stream quickly zoomed out, looking into the distance, for a moment only seeing the all-covering smoke and dust, the scenery further away completely obscured.

But that was fine because another strong earthquake happened, and this time all the audience could clearly see:

The earth was collapsing!

At the edge of the map, the ground broke and crumbled in sections, the surface roads, electric poles, crumbling houses and buildings all collapsed and fell into the endless abyss!

The thunderous rumble was like a thunderclap, and the rolling smoke and dust rose to the sky, rolling back!

The trembling of the earth didn’t stop for a moment, the end-of-the-world’s mighty power shocked everyone!

Almost everyone clung to something sturdy around them, stood still, trembling as they stared at the dark smoke and dust in the distance. Yes, “almost” everyone.

True warriors, though, braced themselves against the intense shaking and began to act!

The two opposing teams, which had previously stopped for a brief moment due to the sudden shaking disruption.

But now, amid the even more intense shaking, one team managed to break out of cover using the chaotic situation as cover!

Leading the charge was a warrior with an ID called “I’m Really Called Wu Di,” as they struggled to charge towards their opponents’ position!

Samuel’s director team was indeed reliable, switching the screen back in the nick of time, and the two commentators also immediately responded, suppressing their shock at the grand scene and began explaining for the audience.

Ren Jian passionately shouted, “They’re breaking out! Despite the violent earthquake, they’re charging towards the enemy!”

“An enemy has spotted them and started shooting!”

“But it’s useless! Even immortals can’t shoot right in this trembling!” “Approaching! Only a dozen meters left!”

Commentator Zara tried to speak, but Ren Jian’s mouth was like a machine gun, one sentence after another, at an incredible speed.

“The enemy is shooting back! But they’re missing! Missing! Still missing!”

“They’ve broken in!”

“There were only two enemies in this building! Now it’s a momentary 5v2! No, there’s another person hiding! It’s 5v3!”

Female commentator Zara finally forcefully interjected, “The distance between the two sides is rapidly closing! Skills activated, speed increased again!”

“Engagement distance!”

Ren Jian successfully caught his breath and continued with his rapid-fire commentary:

“The screen slows down, and both sides enter bullet time!”

“Both sides open fire simultaneously! The ground continues to shake violently, bullets flying everywhere, the situation chaotic! Who will be shot down first?”

“The attacking side has a numerical advantage, but the narrow corridor doesn’t allow for a full display!”

“Bullets depleted, the defending side switches guns!”

“The attacking side is also switching… No! Not switching guns! Wu Di throws the gun at the enemy! The enemy dodges! Wu Di pounces!”

“Dagger hits! Executes the finishing blow! The outcome is settled!”

Under the cover of his teammates, Wu Di rushed at the enemies coming down the stairs and took down another enemy with his dagger.

His four teammates joined forces to deal with the last opponent, saved Wu Di, and immediately rushed to the next building without delay.

Now it was 10v7!

When the “shrinking circle” finally ended and the Metropolitan area’s shaking subsided, the battles here had already come to an end.

“I’m Really Called Wu Di”‘s risky earthquake offensive was a huge success, successfully turning the tide with a 2 for 10 round!

As they looked back at the slowly settling dust in the distance, they felt relieved.

Fortunately, the collapses began at the outer circle and moved inward in rings, so as long as they ran fast enough, they wouldn’t die in this catastrophic shrinking circle.

However, on the way to the Safe Zone, there was heavy firefighting, with more than forty teams being annihilated and eliminated from the game as a result.

By this point, the map had been reduced to three-quarters of its original size, and there were 6,827 players left!

“With so many players left, the next ‘shrinking circle’ won’t necessarily wait a full hour; to be on the safe side, we should head to the city center as soon as possible. ”

“I’m Really Called Wu Di” and his teammates returned their sights to the safezone, hurryingly heading forward to the inner circle.

As outsiders, the audience didn’t have the same sense of urgency and were still savoring the grand scene just now-

“Translate, translate! What does a large-scale operation mean?!!!”

“I saw in the detailed rules that the ‘battlefield range will be reduced’, but I never thought it would shrink like this!”

“Not sure about others, but Cloud Dream’s technical power is really invincible!” “Just the effect of the earth collapsing along with the buildings in rings would take NetDragon a year!”

“Who wouldn’t need a year?!”
