2110 Extra Players Online, Main Actors Online

From that moment on, the battle seemed to heat up.

Thousands of fighter planes fought in the sky across hundreds of kilometers, and there were constant explosions.

Broken parts rained down from the air.

At that moment, in Wakanda’s tech center, Shuri, Dr. Banner and Tony had sweat on their foreheads.

Shuri’s hands moved quickly over a virtual screen, and she couldn’t help but shout, “Hurry up, hurry up. There aren’t enough signal boosters. We can only get about 1,200 fighter planes online.”

Dr. Banner also worked quickly on a virtual screen. “The results of the interference test will take a while. I think it’ll take 20 to 30 minutes to put together an anti-block program. It should improve performance by about 50%.”

Tony said, “Don’t worry, I’m already mobilizing the mini transducers. 10,000 will be deployed on the battlefield in batches; there’ll be no problem remotely piloting 5,000 fighter planes.”

While the three of them were busy, the various major VR gaming halls around the world had already started to close their doors, with the excuse that they were holding the biggest annual competition of the year.

Only players on the list were allowed to enter. At the same time, all communication devices had to be handed over.

In fact, after they entered the VR gaming hall, there was no signal at all; only the numbers on the virtual interface continued to scroll like crazy.

In response, Star Wars league officials said that this was for players to perform better in this mega competition, and that it was expected to end in twelve hours.

At the same time, all participating players were informed that the credit points obtained from this competition could be cashed in directly, and the exchange rate was 1 credit point for 1,000 dollars.

The players were excited, but they didn’t go crazy.

That was because this had been the practice for a long time. Putting aside the weekly competitions, every credit point earned in the quarterly competition held every three months could be converted into ten dollars, and every credit point earned in the mid-year competition could be converted into 100 dollars.

It was completely within expectations that each credit point in the annual competition would be worth 1,000 dollars.

Also, the players who had participated in the quarterly and mid-year competitions knew very well that the difficulty was proportional to the points exchanged.

A top player who could make 10,000 dollars in the quarterly competition would be able to make 30,000 to 50,000 dollars in the annual competition. Those who could make 100,000 dollars were at least one of the top 100 players on the leaderboard, or a top-200 player who might perform outstandingly every now and then.

Looking at it this way, the top 100 players might be able to earn hundreds of millions in the annual competition, while the gains of regular players were 100,000 to 200,000.

So, everybody was calm… As if!

That was USD!

They could earn 100,000 to 200,000 dollars from a competition that would last twelve hours at most, which was no less than the annual income of the so-called middle class in America.

How many gaming shut-ins had turned into unfeeling pile drivers after playing Star Wars in the last few years? This was the joke which made the rounds online.

Some people might be sour and complain that the game was no fun, but the key word was ‘unfeeling.’

What counted was finishing the game. In contrast, ‘unfeeling’ beautiful women took the initiative to approach and coax these gaming nerds.

In any case, one was greedy for the body, and the other was greedy for money, so each got what they wanted.

But when it came to credit points, the Star Wars league had also set up rules long ago – if you disobeyed orders, your points would be deducted.

In the beginning, some hard-headed young men who had already tasted success thought that they could break the rules and it wouldn’t be a big deal.

In the end, these people realized that the deduction of points in the Star Wars league was actually no different from red and yellow cards in football matches.

Once their points were deducted to a certain point, they would be suspended by the Star Wars league from anywhere between a week and three months.

What was annoying was that with other sports, suspended players could still train or even become temporary personal coaches.

If a player was suspended from the Star Wars league, they couldn’t even enter the VR gaming hall; no matter how skilled they were, there was no way to make money.

Besides, the Star Wars league wasn’t just a system of shooting and scoring; you could also earn a lot of credit points by completing instructions to the greatest extent.

Thus, the more efficient and accurate a person was at following orders, the more credit points they could earn.

The longer they spent following orders, the more credit points there were. Time was money.

Thus, no matter how fixated these top players were on the money, they were especially quick to enter combat mode.

With these players following orders and ‘risking life and limb,’ both sides were evenly matched in the air for the time being, and Thanos’s fighter planes didn’t gain the upper hand.

The battle on the ground gradually entered the most intense state.

Countless fighter planes fought in the air to provide effective cover for the dropships.

Two-thirds of the second batch of dropships successfully landed.

Now that the first batch of Thanos’s forces, of which less than half remained, received strong backup, the four-armed monsters that were cannon fodder swarmed forward again and used their bodies to draw firepower as they cleared the way for the heavy infantry and vehicles behind them.

A large number of Thanos’s ground troops also started to advance in formation to fight back against Wakanda’s firepower.

Because of this, the four-armed monsters were under a lot less pressure, and they started to push forward toward Wakanda.

Luke, who was watching the battle in the hall, finally said, “Alright, the two of you keep waiting for the right moment. I’ll take the robots and put on a show for Thanos.”

Strange simply nodded, while T’Challa added, “Be careful. If you really can’t do it, forget it. We still have a backup plan.”

Luke chuckled and patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry. Even if Thanos dies twice, I won’t die.”

Strange’s lips twitched.

Batman had ‘died’ once in the Battle of New York. Now, was Knight going to die again?

Alright, this was purely the new sorcerer overthinking it.

Batman had died once because his character setting was too noble, and he could easily be tied down by morality.

Luke wasn’t interested in abusing himself or satisfying the moral requirements of unrelated people.

Knight was just a ‘super fan.’ Even Batman’s hardcore fans wouldn’t ask him to be stronger than Batman.

Furthermore, when Batman ‘sacrificed himself,’ the Bat Squad had only just been starting out, and became an easy target for others.

Now… those people should be glad that Luke wasn’t targeting them.

Ignoring the Sorcerer Supreme’s unspoken criticism, Luke strolled out of the hall and casually sent a message to Tony. “The show is about to start. Are you done on your side?”

The tycoon’s expression was serious; he had no intention of being glib at all. “Give me a little more time.”

Luke took out an energy Gatling gun which he had modified slightly. “Okay, but my toy’s already a little hungry.”

Tony finally rolled his eyes. “What toy? A fully automatic electromagnetic Bat dart?”

Luke gently pressed the charger, and the six barrels spun quickly. “No, it’s just a small question you asked me a long time ago.”

Hearing that, the tycoon sped up. “D*mn it, wait for me. I’ll be done in a minute.”

Amused, Luke took out a lollipop and popped it into his mouth. Who wasn’t a big baby these days? Wasn’t the tycoon acting like a curious baby now?
