VCRMM: Chapter 271

“Oh my god! It is really a new expansion pack!”

“Ahhh, so we are having an interstellar war?”

“D*mn, flying a spaceship and a mecha, I’m about to reach the pinnacle of my life!”

The players were excited the moment the system notification came out.

How could they not be envious when they saw the lizardmen of Bewatt driving high-end mechas and warships on live TV? This was the correct way to play a game with an interstellar background!

They had been playing this game for several months, and the initial players had been in beta for more than half a year, but they were still stuck on Escher Star.

It was quite fun. After all, it was a holographic game and everything felt new. Still, this didn’t hinder their yearning for the universe.

So cool!

Battleships, mechas, and anything else.

However, as the strongest man, Si Sheng seemed to have no need for these external objects at all. The warships and mechas were simply useless in front of him. They couldn’t even detect his existence.

Players could only say that Si Sheng was awesome! The patron saint was awesome!

It was also a good reminder to them that Roland’s native profession, the elementalist, couldn’t be lost.

The player who switched to the Sigta faction illustrated this very well. Even though Sigta was now their ally, this player still couldn’t regain the elementalist status.

However, this didn’t prevent them from yearning for mechas and warships! So how should this new expansion be played?

[Ding~ Starting from today, players above level 30 can go to the garrison camps in major cities to receive pre-missions. After completing the pre-missions, the ‘Bewatt Star Pass (valid for 7 days) x1 will be obtained.]

[With the pass, you can go to the Bewatt Empire to perform missions. The planet belongs to a hostile force. Players can dispose of all items seized on the planet at their own will. There are no restrictions on all actions.]

[……]

There were some further explanations, but just looking at the first part about ‘Seized items could be disposed of at their own will, and there are no restrictions on all actions’ was enough to get players excited.

In other words…

“It isn’t illegal to rob NPCs, so we won’t be wanted any longer?”

“Hahaha, can you call seizing the enemy’s things a robbery? This is clearly getting back the price they have to pay!”

“That’s right, that’s right! It isn’t called robbery at all!”

The players started discussing it excitedly. The entire forum saw a surge in traffic due to the launch of the new expansion pack. Many people also expressed their love for the planners this time.

The dog planners finally heard their wishes and gave them the opportunity to find excitement in addition to clearing monsters.

Roland had too many rules and restrictions. They couldn’t attack NPCs at will, they couldn’t steal or rob things, and they couldn’t kill people or set fires.

How fun would it be to parade around with a red name?

However, in Roland, they would be on the wanted list as soon as they had a red name. The moment they appeared in the city, the NPCs would immediately appear and suppress them. Then many functions would become unusable.

This wasn’t seeking excitement, it was seeking death.

There might be many other ways to play, but this was still too tame for some players. Playing games should be as exciting as possible!

Now the mayhem special zone had finally opened!

There was no limit to what players could do, and all seized items belonged to the players!

They became excited just thinking about it.

A lot of posts asking for a team formation appeared in Starry Sky Age. There were still many players above level 30. Basically, the one million people who participated in the mission to resist the beast wave had reached this level.

If they hadn’t reached it yet, it could only be said that they were too lazy to do the daily missions.

Probably, the more frustrated ones were the 700,000 players who entered later. Their highest level was only over 20. They still had a long way to go before they could go to Bewatt Star.

In fact, looking at this result, the planners were all very confused. It was because this expansion pack wasn’t in their plan at all.

After an intensive investigation, no bugs were found. In the end, they could only conclude that this was released by the main brain based on the latest calculations in the game.

Old Wang vaguely guessed something because Xu Yuheng had informed him in advance that Snow Roland was going to deal with the Bewatt Empire.

He knew that the release of the new expansion pack was definitely related to this character, but he couldn’t say exactly what the situation was.

After seeing the enthusiastic feedback from the players, he stopped worrying about it and asked people to pay attention to the game data. They should see if there was anything that could be improved about this expansion pack.

Overall, the release of this expansion pack looked too rough, not detailed at all, not to mention how shocking it was.

Xu Sili naturally didn’t know about Old Wang’s complaints about him. This might be called an expansion pack, but it was actually just an announcement he casually released with the purpose of guiding players to complete the pre-missions.

By the time they completed the tedious preliminary missions, Dr Ding’s fixed-point teleporter would almost be packaged.

He couldn’t just expose the fixed-point teleporter directly. Just like the card illusion, he had to do a bit of disguise so that players couldn’t tell what it really was.

The players could play however they wanted once they teleported to Bewatt Star. Naturally, he couldn’t and wouldn’t control them.

It was time for Bewatt to get a taste of the horrors of the fourth natural disaster.

Of course, Xu Sili also imposed restrictions on these players. They would receive a warning once it was time for them to leave Bewatt Star. If they insisted on staying, it would be regarded as an act of defection.

These people would be expelled from Roland’s faction, just like the player who changed factions previously.

Their level had been trained to level 30. He didn’t think anyone would be willing to do this. Even if there were some people, there wouldn’t be too many.

Xu Sili finished making the announcement and continued to look at the light curtain.

On the screen, the black dragon had destroyed the administrative center of Bewatt Star. It could be said that the political class of the Bewatt Empire had suffered a very heavy blow.

The lizardmen might choose a new leader, but this would take time. This period of time would be the best time for players to take advantage of the situation.

Xu Sili was very much looking forward to the performance of the players.

After all, they were in Roland’s faction. Their strength meant Roland was strong.

Through this war, they would not only improve their level but also their equipment.

He was also very greedy for the mechas and warships of Bewatt!

The live broadcast was almost over. In order to avoid exposing his oldest brother turning back into his original form, Xu Sili switched the camera back.

He reappeared on the live broadcast screen.

The whole empire, the cheering people, gradually quieted down.

They looked at their young ruler. After seeing his serious expression, they couldn’t help sitting up and listening carefully to his instructions.

The silver-haired young man said, “Just now, Marshal Si Sheng brought us a wonderful assassination operation. All the political leaders of this conspiracy in the Bewatt Empire have been killed!”

Hearing his sonorous words, the people applauded excitedly again.

Only the players couldn’t help complaining.

[You call this an assassination? This is clearly a direct attack, okay?]

[D*mn, I’ve been tricked again.]

[Suddenly hit.]

[Ah, His Majesty Snow is so handsome. Si x Snow is real!]

“This action might be successful, but it still isn’t enough!” Xu Sili said. “It isn’t enough to calm our anger.”

He actually hesitated over whether to launch a war against the Bewatt Empire or not. After all, the decision made by the top political leaders didn’t mean that the people also knew and supported it.

However, judging from the survey feedback from Xiao Wu during this period, at least 80% of the lizardmen support Arnauton’s decision.

Arnauton’s targeting of Roland wasn’t a covert operation.

Their entire empire was ambitious and wanted to enhance their status in the Interstellar Alliance by encroaching on other nations and obtaining resources for their own development.

The mentality of getting rich through aggression was rooted in the hearts of every lizardman. This was probably related to their history.

The native inhabitants of Bewatt Star weren’t these lizardmen. They were originally alien wanderers. After they could no longer survive on their original planet, they used spaceships to launch lizard eggs that were frozen using special means to an alien planet.

This batch of lizard eggs accidentally came to Bewatt Star. After hatching and growing, they started to plunder the habitats on this habitable planet.

In addition, the native race wasn’t strong. In terms of combat power and reproductive ability, they weren’t as good as the lizardmen who could wander in the universe without perishing.

Eventually, the natives of Bewatt were defeated. The lizardmen took over the planet and quickly grew to become the masters of it.

This was the history of the lizardmen. Not only did they show no remorse for the native race, but they were proud of it.

This was why Xiao Wu easily obtained this information.

So far, the failed natives of Bewatt Star had been almost all killed. Even Xiao Wu couldn’t find any traces of this race.

In all probability, they were completely extinct.

Xu Sili couldn’t help feeling embarrassed when he saw the information sent back by Xiao Wu.

How similar was this race to the people of Escher Star? They both faced the invasion of alien races and suffered a disaster that almost wiped them out. However, Roland still persisted.

In short, Xu Sili didn’t have a good impression of the lizardmen after knowing this history.

He also believed that if the players knew this story, it would be difficult for them to sympathize with the lizardmen. After all, their nation had suffered the same disaster.

Given how proud the lizardmen were of their own history, it wouldn’t be difficult for players to obtain this information once they entered Bewatt Star.

Therefore, Xu Sili didn’t put too much thought into Bewatt Star.

As for whether the entire planet could be acquired in the future, this depended on how far players could go. In any case, he wasn’t in a hurry. Escher Star hadn’t been completely recovered yet. There was no need to spread things too widely.

After arranging things properly, Xu Sili summoned Si Sheng to return.

Yes, after experimentation, he found that he could still summon Si Sheng across two planets.

As for his older brother Xu Fengqing, he didn’t come back. He continued to stay on Bewatt Star. It wasn’t known what he was going to do.

Xu Sili wasn’t worried. It was fine as long as his oldest brother had fun. After all, as a player with an immortal body, he could play however he wanted.

His oldest brother had worked hard for the family for so long. He really needed to relax once in a while.

Finally, three days later, the first player completed the extremely tedious preparatory missions and prepared to go to Bewatt Star.

As the first player to obtain a pass, he naturally started the live broadcast excitedly. Then, according to the location on the pass, he came to the border of Imperial City and was led by the army to a teleportation circle.

Then he was ready to start his journey to the alien planet in great spirits!
