Chapter 671: Chapter 638: Fastest Elimination in the Whole Game!
“How dare you !!!”
A player let out an angry roar.
It’s not a Swedish player, but an Indian player with light brown skin and curly hair.
As for why the Indian player is so angry, it’s necessary to mention the fascinating history of this world.
In this history, nuclear weapons have certainly been used, and to a large extent, they have become a key catalyst for “ending wars.”
Calling them “Peace Makers” wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
However, here in the later stages of the war, Izumo was following its suzerain Daxia’s lead. Although they were fierce in the Pacific battlefield, they were not the main target of the nuclear bombing.
The real target was the Indian battlefield.
Oh, don’t misunderstand, it’s not because of India’s army – at that time, India’s army wasn’t worth using nuclear weapons on.
However, the situation in India was special at the time. The British Empire, which still retained the residual glow of the never-setting sun, had not completely withdrawn. America had fully intervened in the war, and Daxia had completely pushed the war out of its own territory, even having the extra energy to arrange vassal states’ armies to participate in the global battlefield and win more allies.
That year, in Gujarat, India, not far from the Persian Gulf exit, a sudden and chaotic battle broke out.
Britain not only called for European allies but also desperately pulled in Indian troops. The newly independent India couldn’t refuse and kept sending troops. America’s way of increasing troops was mainly by assigning its “sons.” Izumo, which had just been arranged by the suzerain country and stationed in Karachi, Pakistan, also got involved, as well as the Middle Eastern countries that were either proactive or passive…
The situation quickly turned chaotic.
Since America’s sphere of influence was mainly in America, its Middle Eastern military strength was limited, and sending troops was too troublesome, they found themselves surrounded by multiple forces. Particularly, they were troubled by the continuous reserve army from India and saw huge losses coming.
At that moment, they suddenly thought of a newly developed weapon, and so…
Gujarat’s largest city, Ahmedabad, received the first nuclear bomb in the world and instantly became an unforgettable city in human warfare history.
America didn’t want to anger the world at the time, so they deliberately avoided the strong national forces when dropping the bomb. However, India and Middle Eastern countries suffered a great disaster.
Even the Middle Eastern countries that joined America’s side took a hard hit.
As for the people of Izumo, they were also unfortunately caught in the chaos…
The huge mushroom cloud that blossomed out and the lingering nuclear radiation in the air not only caused astonishing casualties but also directly cooled down the fighting spirit among various forces.
Even if the nuclear weapons just developed had not yet reached their full potential, they were far more terrifying than conventional weapons.
Even America, who used this weapon, was shocked. Considering the astonishing cost of this weapon at the time, it never appeared again.
Not long after, countries like Russia, Daxia, Germany, United Kingdom, and France successively announced their success in developing nuclear weapons.
Following that, the “Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty” occurred, which restricted the endless escalation of war intensity.
Since then, there has been basically no large-scale war between nuclear-armed countries.
As a result, Ahmedabad became the only city in human history to have been bombed by nuclear weapons.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki painfully missed their chance to make history.
Izumo was hit with a nuclear bomb for nothing.
Lincoln watched and felt that it was unfair for them. He couldn’t help but want to compensate them somehow.
For example, building a “Virtual Hiroshima” and leveling it with another nuclear bomb.
Of course, it’s just a thought for now since the cost is too high and somewhat uneconomical.
He had to compromise and come up with a new idea: How about bombing “Virtual Kyoto”?
After all, “Virtual Kyoto,” with its unique variant “Tang-style architecture,” had always been on Lincoln’s planning list.
This way, the cost would be much lower.
However, the remaining problem is: Finding a reason isn’t easy…

Back to the main topic.
On the field, the Indian players were angry.
Izumo players were also in a bad mood.
System prompts triggered some unpleasant memories for both sides.
But their reactions were very different.
Izumo players: We must stop the nuclear bomb from exploding!
Indian players: We must let the nuclear bomb explode! Let other countries feel it too!
Although their ultimate goals were different, their first step was the same: Find the nuclear bomb controller.
The problem, however, is: How to find it?
Cloud Dream didn’t provide any clues.
Many countries started a carpet search in a hurry, fearing a nuclear bomb would hit them anytime.
But on Daxia’s side, no one cared about nuclear weapons. They were still concentrating on selecting weapons and arming themselves.
First, it was because Super Tomato analyzed in the team channel: “The controller is very likely not in the 36 chosen positions, otherwise it would be somewhat unfair.”
Secondly, more than half of the players here had experience in the “Assassins’ Alliance” Freedom Day event and thought that the first half-hour before the match would be safe.
As they armed themselves, an impressive 100 “Recon Soldiers” who had finished equipping themselves first left the seaport and set out for other areas.
This was a tactic discussed during the day.
Although they decided to “hunker down” in the early stages, they couldn’t just do it blindly. They had to ensure “full map visibility” and keep an eye on other countries’ players’ positions and movements.
So, reconnaissance is indispensable.
These 100 Recon Soldiers are all players with the highest winning rate and strength.
After that, there were two groups of 50 people each, originally reserved as mobile forces, but now their mission was temporarily changed. They set off to search for unchosen map points, looking for the possible nuclear bomb controller and scavenging resources along the way.
The rest, half of them constructed defensive positions, and the other half boarded ships to try and get them moving.
Although there were no warships, large cargo ships themselves were a mobile fortress.
And by dispersing over several ships, they could also prevent being wiped out by a single nuclear strike.
However, from the current situation, the Daxia side was completely on the fringes and hardly anyone was paying attention.
Even the official live broadcast room had no intention of giving them any coverage, with the director’s lens locked onto the Russian players from the start.
They were indeed fierce, fully armed within half an hour of prep time.
After the barrier disappeared, neither the piercing alarm nor the nuclear warning had delayed their pace at all.
Their destination was clear: the airport occupied by the Izumo players!
The moment they saw the tank, they understood: there must be airplanes at the airport!
So, air superiority must be taken as quickly as possible!
German players agreed: great minds think alike. At the moment, they were also leaving the industrial zone and heading straight to the airport.
The territory between the airport and the industrial zone was surrounded by Russia, Germany, and Izumo, so few countries dared to choose it.
But for some reason, the Polish players chose it.
At the moment, they were still putting on their gear, discussing whether they should join the “besieging army” to attack Russia right away, or wait a bit and sneak up on them after the chaos started.
Who would have thought that before they made a decision, the German armored personnel carriers passed by.
After all, there was no shortage of armored vehicles in the industrial zone.
The German players aimed directly at the airport and didn’t initially plan to stop along the way.
But seeing that nearly half of the Polish players hadn’t gotten their guns yet, and were messily gathered around the weapons warehouse, their hands got itchy.
Several players could not control their hands, and their assault rifles subconsciously fired in a “burst burst” sweeping motion at the Polish players.
The Poles were hit suddenly and immediately started fighting back.
Dense bullets swept at the armored vehicles, producing a constant ping and pang of metal-on-metal
At this point in the events, there was no choice but to fight!
German players immediately turned their armored vehicles around, attacking the Polish players with full firepower!
Rifles, submachine guns, light machine guns, and mortars’ overwhelming firepower made it impossible for the Polish players to raise their heads.
Many didn’t even have weapons!
What’s even worse, the Germans maliciously focused their fire on the weapons warehouse, with launchers constantly bombing it.
As expected, in the midst of the explosions, the ammunition inside the warehouse exploded due to the heavy impact.
Polish players were completely discouraged and many turned around to flee.
But how could they outrun armored vehicles on foot?
German players followed closely behind, gunfire never ceasing as they harvested heads like mad.
In their panic, Polish players tried to disperse to avoid being wiped out together, but they hadn’t gotten very far before they collided with five full tanks head-on!
“Boom!”
Upon seeing the Polish players, the tanks didn’t hesitate to open fire directly!
These were nearby Russian players who were passing by and were attracted by the gunfire, making a small detour to check the situation.
Seeing a bunch of heads coming their way, how could they not take them?
“Boom boom boom!”
“Tatatatatatat…”
Russian and German players were in a tight pincer attack, frantically stealing kills.
The Polish “war reporter” Kieslowski didn’t give up even in his desperation, and called for action in the team channel: “Don’t run around! Bring them together! As long as they start fighting, we have a chance to survive!”
The fleeing Polish players, hearing the command, didn’t have time to think about whether it was reliable or not, and immediately started acting accordingly.
The previously scattered crowd quickly gathered back together.
This led to a rapid increase in their casualties, but at least the goal was achieved: the Russian and German players collided on the two streets across!
For tanks and heavy machine guns, this distance was pretty much point blank!
Kieslowski, surrounded by tanks and armored vehicles in the middle of the road, smiled at his few nearby teammates: “We’re dead for sure, but our goal has been achieved!”
Amid the dense machine gunfire, several players fell dead at once.
After his soul left his body, Kieslowski saw a system prompt in front of him-
[Leaving the battlefield countdown: 10, 9, 8 …]
He didn’t care about it and looked excitedly at both sides of the field, waiting for German and Russian players to have a big fight!
But his grin quickly froze on his face-
From the German armored vehicle window, the driver timidly asked, “Going to the airport?”
Then, to Kieslowski’s dismay, the top hatch of a Russian tank opened!
A tank crewman climbed halfway out, just as loudly replying: “Yes! Together?”
Armored car driver: “GO! GO! GO!”
Then both parties calmly made their way, taking turns reaping the lives of Polish players who had gathered to die at the suggestion of Kieslowski, while heading to the airport.
Kieslowski’s plan fell apart in an instant.
…
In this manner, less than 20 minutes into the game, Poland had lost over 80% of its forces, being the first to be eliminated from the entire match!
