Chapter 109 - 34: Post-Match Summary, Aiming for S65, Author Battles Geriatric Surgery in the ICU
The deep night in Night City is also midday on the other side.
The battle today resulted in the death of seven players, with a casualty rate of up to 80%, prompting forum members to mock relentlessly.
No matter how Brother Dao described the intensity of the battlefield and the intelligence of the hostile NPCs, for other players without an account, dying so many in a PVE indicates that you’re just bad at the game.
While they were arguing fiercely, the official website not only announced the players who secured reservation slots but also uploaded a promotional video to shift the players’ focus.
The first scene is an aerial view of a convoy of dozens of vehicles moving along a weed-overgrown highway. With mounted machine guns, graffiti on the car bodies, and the rumbling of engines, all set to a melodious western tune, it has the vibe of a road movie.
Then, as the BGM begins to change key, two distinct convoy styles suddenly emerge in the riverbeds on both sides of the convoy’s direction. As the music gradually rises, the distance between the three convoys continues to close.
Finally, there’s silence, the sound from the scene abruptly vanishes, and the BGM stops. The three convoys crash into each other with Wanderer’s convoy piercing like a dagger into two-thirds of the convoy’s rear. In a slow-motion sequence, the hard car bodies collide, slowly being crushed and deformed, while the teams exchange gunfire. The sparks from bullets striking the steel plates and the intense brass music play together.
The forward escape convoy, in panic, crashes into the tire spikes spilled by Pira, causing one vehicle to roll over repeatedly on the highway, sparks flying everywhere. Up ahead stands Mann’s uniquely styled squad. After the two sides engage, a suddenly appeared multi-barrel rocket launcher caused the trailing convoy to panic and turn away, but instead, fireworks exploded, adding a touch of humor to the fierce battle.
However, this humor ironically made the final battle particularly fierce, as the six used as bait couldn’t raise their heads under the assault of Night Wanderers pressing forward. Brother Dao was a bit slow to react, immediately having his left arm broken, blood gushing, extremely disheveled.
Giant Head and Potato went wild for a moment, but were soon pinned behind a pillar and shot at.
