Chapter 399: When the Game Becomes Reality

”Boom!”

An immense explosion sent Su Ni and the man in the cartoon mask flying!

Countless shards of glass, propelled by the force of the bomb, flew wildly inside the building like a drizzling rain.

”Alpha Team has successfully breached the defenses! Awaiting further instructions.”

Just as Su Ni had rushed towards the man in the cartoon mask, the police’s special combat forces had stormed in.

A group of battle police dressed in black tactical gear swiftly broke through the building’s first line of defense.

A dense array of arrow weapon infrared beams shot out.

If at this moment the cartoon mask man dared to appear, he would be riddled with holes in an instant.

Dozens of red laser lines penetrated the building, making the black smoke inside completely transparent.

The cartoon mask man, thrown by the blast, staggeringly crawled out from the ruins, his anger nearly driving him to madness.

”Archer! What the hell are you doing?” the man in the cartoon mask roared hoarsely.

The archer, who had been in the monitoring room, had let the police rush in, nearly costing him his life. How could that not infuriate the man in the cartoon mask?

”The game has just begun, don’t be anxious!”

The young man in the monitoring room nonchalantly swirled the drink in his glass.

A devilish smile curved the corners of his handsome mouth.

Very soon.

The special combat forces team, the vanguard trio who had just stepped inside the building, triggered a thick plank on the floor to suddenly spring up.

In an instant, it snapped towards the faces of the three special combat members.

Slap!

The three members of the special combat forces were catapulted out by the highly elastic plank.

Under the effect of the reinforced elastic plank, their bodies flew like iron balls that had been thrown.

They crashed into the building’s one-way glass door with a thunderous bang!

In that instant, they turned into a heap of mush!

The force of the elastic plank had to be at least a thousand pounds. Against such force, the human body was utterly incapable of resisting!

”The game has only just begun; what follows will surely be thrilling!”

The young man in the monitoring room continued sipping his drink with a cheerful smile.

”Yes!”

Seeing this scene, the man with the cartoon mask clenched his fists, excitement written all over his face.

At this moment, the entire special combat forces team was in complete disarray. Witnessing their comrades being gruesomely crushed to death by a plank with a ton of force, they felt a bitter pain in their hearts.

But before the special combat forces could react, a pre-set explosive package went off among the crowd with a thunderous explosion.

In an instant, dozens of special combat forces members were reduced to nothingness!

Fiery flames engulfed the front of the building while the force of the explosion was so immense that it even caused the criminal police and armed police officers outside, along with their vehicles, to be blown away.

Dozens of figures were engulfed by the raging flames, all burnt to charred silhouettes!

”Boom, boom, boom...!”

Countless vehicles were likewise seduced by the blaze, their gas pedals engaging one after another, exploding in succession.

”Alas!”

Within the surveillance room, inside the building, on the rooftop, and in the underground passageways... five crazed criminals were holding Arrow Weapons and laughing wildly without any restraint, cheering boisterously.

The most infuriating thing was that a young man in the surveillance room, wearing a cartoon mask, held a young girl in his arms, and the two were kissing fervently, intertwined.

Hundreds of surveillance monitors were arrayed in front of them, putting every corner of the building inside and out under their watch.

In another room, a criminal with dyed blond hair was excitedly tapping away at the keyboard.

With each keystroke, a self-satisfied smirk involuntarily curled the corners of his mouth.

Especially since the computer screen in front of him was displaying a game of Arrow Battle.

This game was once the popular Counter-Terrorism Battlefield!

It was the game that Hua Buqi had insisted on playing with Lin Zifeng—where the Divine Dragon team had been defeated by Lin Zifeng’s avatar named ”Especially Rough,” who Divine Dragon team suspected to be the once number-one ranked taboo and fearsome gamer ”Eastern Invincible.”

Little did Lin Zifeng and his group know that these crazed geniuses were turning the game into reality, manipulating intricate game programs to fuse the game with the actual world.

Using their extraordinary gaming talent, they had transformed the entire game’s programming into reality, with every level matched against their real-life counterparts.

Meaning, as soon as there was any slight movement from the police outside the building, they would input the police’s tactical movements into the game, allowing the game’s AI to generate rapid solutions.

To neutralize every method of the real-world police forces.

It was similar to how some people play single-player computer games, essentially not a battle against other players but against the computer.

And the programming of this game was much more intelligent than those simplistic, rigid single-player games.

The AI-driven programs within were simply beyond human cracking.

Furthermore, the design and structure of this skyscraper, which initially used international smart technology, contained many areas controlled by intelligent systems, enabling these mad criminals to act without any fear.

”Computer guy, how’s the programming going?” Suddenly, the young man in the surveillance room seemed to have had enough of his crazy time with the girl in his arms.

A raspy voice came through the earpiece, prompting the genius criminal busily working at his computer in the other room to shout frantically, ”Don’t worry, Archer. The game’s programming has been set up. The moment the police enter the building, the game’s programming will automatically take effect, autonomously triggering a chain reaction. We won’t even need to lift a finger. Unless they blast the building with a cannon, it’ll be very hard for them to get in.”

”A cannon blast? They wouldn’t do that unless they want to give up on rescuing the hostages,” came the arrogant tone from the young man in the surveillance room. In his view,

it didn’t matter how powerful any empire was; as long as they had hostages in their hands, everything was manageable.

Indeed, under the control of the blond computer whiz, the sniper just setting up his Arrow Weapon outside the building, finding a concealed spot and not yet finished adjusting the sniper’s calibration,

a flurry of Blood Flowers burst forth.

The fully AI-driven game programming had taken control of the entire building, dooming anyone within a kilometer’s reach!

At this moment, not only were the police outside the building thrown into panic, but even the crowd began to feel a sinister foreboding.

Thanks to the continuous media coverage, almost a third of Zhonghai City’s population was watching today’s live broadcast.

Even at Yunhai University’s cafeteria, where not many students gathered initially, the place quickly became packed.

Hundreds of student onlookers were following the situation outside the building closely.

Everyone was worried about the valiant policewoman who had stormed in and had yet to emerge.

Huahua and Liu Tangtang clung tightly to each other, their expressions agitated as they watched everything unfold on the television.
