Chapter 12 As expected of the 4th Calamity
The darkness faded, and the sunlight shone through.
Wang Zhenyi took a deep breath, and the smells of body odor, perfume, and the sweet aroma of popcorn instantly filled his nostrils.
This is the location of the insect swarm outbreak six years later: Millinellis Air Force Base.
An open day event is currently underway.
This base is famous, firstly because it is a major U.S. Air Force base and oversees the Nevada weapons testing base, and secondly because it controls Area 51, which has connections to extraterrestrials.
Therefore, after the Zerg outbreak, many people suspected that it was related to secret research in the United States. However, with the fall of North America, the region became a complete no-go zone. Launching an intercontinental nuclear weapon was possible, but it was almost impossible for personnel to infiltrate and investigate.
Ultimately, the matter was dropped.
Even though Wang Zhenyi has been reborn back to six years ago, this is still one of the issues he cares about very much.
So just now in the war space, he manually controlled his own destiny, allowing himself to come here as a "tourist" six years in the future. On the one hand, he could act like an ordinary college student in reality and excitedly become a player.
On the one hand, he hoped to personally explore the secrets of this base.
Although this is a simulated game, the more than 500 million players are real. Their memories have been read by the War Space. If any of them have worked in this base or been involved in the secret research of the United States, then this base will definitely reflect their memories.
In other words, Wang Zhenyi hopes to explore the memories of certain people and find answers.
Moreover, besides changing their own "fate".
Wang Zhenyi also altered the fates of some Chinese players, increasing the number of Chinese tourists at the open day event. This facilitated subsequent actions and allowed them to better explore the secrets of the event by leveraging the power of the masses.
"Phew, who would have thought?"
"In ten minutes, this place will become a battlefield."
"Those tourists back then..."
Just as Wang Zhenyi was looking around for players, a surprised voice suddenly rang out from not far away:
"Holy crap, that's awesome!"
"This is definitely the future!"
Turning my head, I saw an extremely tall and thin young man staring at the F-22 fighter jet in front of him with a look of amazement.
"Xu Jiayang".
"Currently a senior at China Media University."
"Game design major."
"Oh, so your graduation project is a game about an alien insectoid invasion of Earth?"
"That's interesting~"
As a "GM"-like figure, Wang Zhenyi instantly read the player's information, a smile playing on his lips as he continued to observe silently.
Right now,
Xu Jiayang was stunned after his initial amazement.
He noticed that the tourists around him were looking at him strangely.
He instantly realized that this was the future, and these tourists were living, breathing people from the future. His earlier remarks had indeed sounded like those of a "madman."
"Hahaha..."
He chuckled awkwardly, unsure of what to do next.
Unexpectedly, the next second a powerful roar rang out from afar:
"Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger!"
"Brothers of China, assemble in 2026!"
"We've been respawned at Nellis Air Force Base!"
"Look at the sign over there."
"The insect swarm is about to erupt in nine minutes."
Xu Jiayang was startled at first, then stunned. He realized that someone was even more arrogant than him, not considering the consequences at all. He quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.
There stood a boy of medium height, shouting and yelling in alarm.
Subsequently, similar voices arose one after another.
"Damn it, unbelievable!"
"This is definitely the future, so why am I here?"
"Could it be that character generation is random?"
"No, no, look at your own physical condition. We've most likely possessed our future selves, six years from now."
"Wow, I do look more mature now."
"Sukhabriel, hahaha, I'm going to steal an F-22 fighter jet and fly it back to my homeland! Hahaha."
"Damn it, what nonsense are you spouting? You'll attract the guards."
"What's there to be afraid of? We're just players; even if we die, we can respawn."
"But we'll have to wait until the next game, you idiot!"
A cacophony of languages from around the world filled the airshow, altering the atmosphere. The expressions of the surrounding visitors grew increasingly strange; some began to silently distance themselves, while others started looking for security personnel.
Clearly, these powerful computing-simulated "NPCs" are faithfully fulfilling their duties.
"A bunch of idiots!"
Seeing the security personnel at the scene start to notice and move closer, Xu Jiayang muttered a complaint under his breath.
He had barely finished speaking when a voice suddenly came from the side:
"What you just said."
"Seems similar to them?"
"2026? An insect swarm outbreak?"
"Are you humans from a past time?"
"How did you end up here?"
Upon hearing this voice, the hairs on the back of his head stood on end. He turned his head and saw a Chinese man with a slicked-back hairstyle frowning and asking a question.
For a moment, Xu Jiayang had no idea what to say or do.
But he was even more convinced that this was the future!
"Oh, it's nothing."
"The weather is really nice today."
"Wow, look at these fighter jets, they're so cool!"
Hahaha~
He turned and left with an awkward laugh. The countdown was now down to less than eight minutes. The commotion in the "transmigrator area" was growing louder as security personnel began to check people, and a conflict was inevitable.
Wang Zhenyi strolled leisurely, observing all of this.
Although he could switch directly to GM mode and start exploring, that would take away a lot of the fun.
Besides, there's still plenty of time, so he's not in a hurry.
Furthermore, leaving the mystery to the players can further encourage more people to join the battle and contribute their computing power.
After all, the world has nearly nine billion people!
"Apply for live streaming?"
"Has the live streaming equipment already been set up in reality?"
Just then, Wang Zhenyi, who was in charge of the overall situation in the war space, suddenly received a message from a player.
Upon receiving the message, Wang Zhenyi, located at Nellis Air Force Base, instantly accessed the player's information.
Cheng Xiyang.
"Oh, you also graduated from a media university? Broadcasting and hosting major?"
"A CCTV host was rejected? Because she has a prosthetic eye? Does she not look expressive enough?"
"Currently, I make a living by dressing up as a doll at Universal Studios."
"I was trying to earn some extra money by live-streaming my gaming for a while, but the number of viewers was just average."
"Apply for a live stream now?"
"And right here at Nellis Air Force Base?"
In that instant, Wang Zhenyi, using his GM privileges, turned his head and looked around. Sure enough, he saw a tall, elegant, and beautiful girl in the distance. She was frowning as if she was thinking about something, but she was probably actually making a request on the system panel.
"It's good that the players are streaming."
"It's very immersive."
"Since you were the first to bring it up, let's make you the lucky one."
Wang Zhenyi, who was in control of the entire war space, had a sudden thought and granted her live streaming privileges. Wang Zhenyi, who was on the scene, saw that a floating sphere the size of a tennis ball appeared next to her head instantly, with a camera visible on its front.
"Congratulations, hero, the live streaming function has been unlocked."
"You can connect your real-world live streaming device to the control panel and select the platform you want to stream to."
"Live broadcast in the first person or third person, etc."
"May your heroic deeds be seen by more people!"
Li Xiyang was overjoyed; for the first time, she felt as if she had seized an opportunity!
"Bang!"
Just then, a sudden gunshot startled her.
Looking up, the scene was in complete chaos; some players had even stolen guns from the security personnel!
