“This… this is a city?”
“Such a massive city, even bigger than some of the urban areas I’ve visited.”
“And the detail, how can it be so rich…? Every part of this city is full of its own characteristics, not just templated extensions.”
Just from the map, Raccoon City had many areas marked.
There were absolutely no repeating areas.
This was something they considered impossible to achieve.
The few people present were all quite experienced.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting in this position today.
They had seen large Dark Worlds before, but to some extent, many of the useless areas in those Dark Worlds were copied and extended.
For example, a forest would just be a copy-paste of a few tree models.
A plain would just be a flat plain extending outwards, then dotted with some flowers, grass, and trees.
Lords rarely put effort into the environment.
Even if some novel elements appeared, they were only a very small part.
How could it be like this now?
The entire city, with countless details, all the designs were brand new, a fresh version they had never seen before.
An old man couldn't help but stand up.
Just this opening scene had already stunned him speechless.
“Is… is this the Dark World you used for the competition?”
“Indeed.”
“This is too… this is too…” The old man’s finger trembled as he pointed for a long time, unable to think of an appropriate adjective.
However, as the scene continued to scroll,
shocking things emerged one after another.
The first Zombie lunged at them, directly startling several old men.
This scene appeared from a first-person perspective, but fortunately, all the participants were professional players with excellent reaction abilities.
The Zombie was killed by their blades the moment it appeared, falling to the ground.
“What kind of monster is this? A ghoul? Or a skeleton?” one of the old men asked.
Li Yunque smiled faintly, “This is called a Zombie. It’s a completely different species from ghouls and skeletons. It spreads through a virus, one infecting ten, ten infecting a hundred, spreading like a plague.”
Several old men nodded.
“So it’s a horror-themed Dungeon. Achieving this level is quite good.”
They had seen ghouls and skeletons before, so they were only surprised for a moment before sitting down.
“Not bad.”
“Quite impressive. From a conceptual standpoint alone, it’s good. Especially this city, purely from a scenic perspective, it can be considered a top-tier Dark World Dungeon.”
The old men maintained their composure, nodding slightly in approval.
Later,
when assault rifles swept through the Zombie horde.
When the Tank made its first appearance.
When the Licker, Smoker, Tank Zombie, and Fatty all appeared in their vision.
Several old men couldn't sit still. One of them licked his lips.
“Little Li, I’ve never seen these monsters before. Are they all original creations of that Lord?”
“Yes.”
Li Yunque puffed out his chest and smoothed his clothes, “Here, I can responsibly say that everything in this Dungeon is original, things I’ve never seen before.”
“This…”
“To originate so many things at once, this Lord’s strength is indeed impressive. There’s room for cultivation.”
Even the elder sitting at the head of the table couldn't help but nod slightly in approval.
“Seniors, please continue watching,” Li Yunque said with a faint smile.
At this point in the playback, it was the Tyrant’s initial appearance.
Seeing four rockets fired in unison, this spectacular scene made several old men involuntarily take a deep breath.
“This is magic.”
“Hmm, it should be a relatively high-tier magic. Does it not require incantation?”
“It seems this Lord has some understanding of magic. To construct magic that doesn’t require incantation, one needs a certain understanding of the underlying logic of magic.”
“In the Dark World, this child should also be considered a genius. Both a Lord and a magician, truly excellent.”
“This thing called a Tank, should it be some kind of alchemist’s vehicle? Combining alchemy with magic, to be able to achieve this, their talent in alchemy and magic is quite accomplished.”
Several old men speculated.
“Cough, cough.”
Li Yunque coughed twice lightly, correcting them, “Seniors, I must remind you that when watching this video, please discard all your previous knowledge.
Please note, this is not magic.
Please note, this is not magic.”
Li Yunque emphasized it twice.
“Not magic, how is that possible?” The old men clearly didn’t believe him.
Li Yunque remained silent, just showing off.
He didn’t tell the old men what it was exactly, only letting them continue watching.
The scene shifted.
Grenades, flashbangs, and smoke grenades were thrown, along with the insane barrage from a Gatling gun. These things, which the old men mistakenly thought were magic, gradually impacted their minds.
And then,
when Qi Maosong jumped from the high-rise building, the tense scene made several old men involuntarily hold their breath.
The Tyrant fell within the building.
When the second form appeared, several old men couldn't help but tremble again.
“It even has a second form. This setting is really good.”
“Indeed, among many Dungeons, this is a relatively novel setting.”
From the current settings, the old men were already quite satisfied.
Among many Dungeons, it could definitely rank high.
However, this result did not meet Li Yunque’s expectations.
He didn’t explain, letting the competition video continue to play.
The scene that followed
was Qi Maosong leading the Tyrant to the gas station, causing an explosion.
They originally thought this explosion was the peak.
But when Wu Yue drove the oil tanker, disregarding his own life, crashing into the burning Tyrant Second Form,
the Tank’s main cannon roared.
A brilliant, small mushroom cloud rose into the air.
The old men never dreamed that fire and explosions could produce a mushroom cloud.
“Forbidden spell!”
“A forbidden spell cast through some kind of substance? What an idea!”
Several old men exclaimed in admiration.
They marveled.
They seemed completely unable to imagine that all of this came from the mind of a single Lord.
And when the Tyrant Third Form fully revealed itself, the expressions on their faces had changed from shock to stupor.
“This… this is completely unbeatable, isn’t it?”
“To set such a powerful monster, it would probably require divine power, or sacred artifacts of divine grade, right?”
They watched as the Tyrant Third Form easily tore apart the Tank and pulled out the Adventurers inside to devour them.
They also watched as the Tyrant withstood countless “high-level magic” bombardments head-on, destroying the police station.
Finally, they saw a rocket land in the armory, triggering another small mushroom cloud explosion.
The old men were somewhat numb.
But this numbness, after the expanded Tyrant Third Form chased Li Ruoshu, tearing down building after building, once again turned into a tingling sensation on their scalps.
