Chapter 1396: Chapter 1256: Did I Just Screw Myself Over?!
Nuclear weapons, as the ultimate weapon commonly recognized by both Lincoln’s hotown and this world, naturally had to have power that matched their status.
Especially the limited edition “Uranium Sword,” for which Lincoln specifically endowed it with a unique algorithm—
This algorithm ensured that in the vast majority of cases, it could achieve the effect of “clearing the field.”
This kind of “clearing the field” isn’t about calculating damage under the system’s algorithm, then subtracting defense, and finally determining the final damage and visual effect based on the nurical value.
—No, it’s not like that, it’s not so complicated.
The damage effect of a “Nuclear Explosion” is much simpler and more brutal:
Within the core kill zone, all data is summarily [deleted]!
Inside the core area of the “Blue Sun,” there is no damage formula, no damage reduction thods; as long as the data priority is lower than that of the nuclear explosion, it is all deleted!
...
The bubble surrounding them at this mont is not so defense asure—at least not a defense against external threats.
Its true nature is an isolation sandbox, mainly intended to guard against any potential tactics from the Doctor.
So—under a nuclear explosion, none shall be fortunate!
Lincoln, Mavis, and the players are all fine—the players and Lincoln, in reality, are only present in the virtual world through their thoughts, so it’s just a mont of “confusion,” while Mavis’s existence is above the entire virtual world, so she wouldn’t have any problems.
But it’s different for the Doctor who has lost his backing!
He’s even been locked by Lincoln inside the bubble, with no chance to escape!
It was so coincidental it almost seed like a murder!
But by the ti Lincoln realized this, it was already too late.
The nuclear explosion had occurred, and the blue sun engulfed everything in a flash of electric light.
Players, aliens, defenses, pavent, and buildings made of reinforced concrete, as well as the invisible bubble in the sky…
Everything dissolved into nothingness in the blue light, followed by a violent eruption of light, heat, and shockwaves.
The intense tremors swept through all directions, causing the high-rises of the tropolis to sway uncontrollably.
A mushroom cloud slowly rose from the Earth.
The world fell silent.
If there were no external forces intervening, this silence would last at least a minute before players could resurrect on the periphery of the core zone.
But this ti, just as the fierce blue sun vanished, an exasperated voice ca from the sky:
“You bastards!”
That was Lincoln’s voice.
He himself was unhard, but he felt as if he had gone blind!
His eyes stung and itched, and he couldn’t see anything but a filthy blue haze.
“I haven’t even opened my Technology Blind Box yet, and you got it blown up?!”
His Spaceship, Energy Furnace, Super ch, along with much more technology, knowledge, and the history of another civilization, had all been obliterated by this nuclear bomb!
Lincoln was ntally shattered!
Just then, a soft little hand gently touched his face and covered his eyes.
The discomfort in his eyes instantly vanished, and his vision beca clear again.
Mavis’s soft face drew close, observing Lincoln’s eyes carefully.
Lincoln rubbed her little head, speechless and despondent, and turned to look where the Doctor had been.
To his surprise: the Doctor was still there, perfectly intact!
Well, maybe not perfectly—he looked as if a hand grenade had exploded in his hand.
His patient gown was tattered and torn, skin bore several burn marks, and even his hair was still smoking, giving him a dusty and disheveled appearance.
But to have sustained only such injuries after nearly getting hit in the face with a nuclear bomb was a miracle among miracles.
So—
“Mavis, it was you, right?”
“Yes, yes, Mavis protected the Doctor!” Mavis nodded vigorously, with an eager little expression seeking praise.
In that lightning-fast mont, only Mavis could have reacted and completed the operation in an instant.
“Mavis!
You’re amazing!
Mua!” Lincoln planted a big kiss on Mavis’s cheek, “You did a great job!”
Mavis imdiately laughed with delight.
anwhile, Doctor Darkstar’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Whether it was the aftermath of the nuclear blast or his current mood reflected his appearance was unclear.
“Uh…” Lincoln looked at the Doctor’s expression, intending to explain.
But considering the large crater at his feet, the charred remains, the buildings that had started to topple over from the nuclear blast, and the mushroom cloud that had yet to dissipate in the sky, he found himself at a loss for words.
He suddenly didn’t know how to start explaining this accident to the Doctor…
Dark Star Doctor was really good-tempered to not even lose his cool, just waiting with a dark face for Lincoln’s explanation.
Lincoln thought about it and realized that this was no longer a problem language could solve.
ƝονǤᴑ.сο
“Sorry,” he simply admitted his mistake.
Accidentally almost killing soone, an apology was indeed in order.
“Doctor, wait for a few minutes, let see what exactly is going on.”
Although he really wanted to kill that bastard who played with nuclear bombs at the drop of a hat, clearly it wasn’t that player’s fault.
—This was entirely an accident.
Even though he had made up his mind to teach these players a lesson, that would co later and belong to an “internal conflict”.
He quickly reviewed the ssages he had missed before, while Mavis efficiently pulled up a tiline, clearly laying out all the situations in front of Lincoln.
From the exhibition of the captured Alien, its escape, contamination of the food, widespread transmission of an unknown disease, the initial outbreak of the Alien disaster and its impact after full-scale eruption, followed by the reaction of the players, the current state of the virtual world, and the online public opinion in the real world…
Every ti point, every key figure…
all the information was clearly listed on a line, allowing Lincoln to make sense of everything in the shortest possible ti.
Then Lincoln was a bit overwheld.
The Aliens’ characteristics—intelligence, strength, reproductive traits, he had designed them all himself.
Just unfortunately, the problem erupted at this ti.
Not only he and the Doctor were victims, but most of the players were victims too.
They were hit by the blast, simply caught in the player’s defensive retaliation.
This was quite a predicant!
Now the question was laid out before him: how to clean up this ss?
Rollback?
Given the current extent of the Alien disaster, aside from rolling back and then modifying the effects of the [Unknown Infection], there were no other ways to quickly solve the problem.
But Lincoln was very hesitant.
This was different from the previous Terraria incident, which involved a ga world crash that was also controllable in scope.
Now, it was almost the entire virtual world that was affected.
After pondering for a mont, Lincoln shared the tiline Mavis had organized with Dark Star Doctor.
After the Doctor had finished reading, Lincoln said, “I am very sorry that this accident involved you, and the tour plan needs to be suspended for now, I need to handle this accident.”
“How do you plan to handle it?” The black shadows that had lingered around the Doctor’s body slowly dissipated, turning into a mix of red and yellow hues.
That was the color of curiosity.
Lincoln was forthcoming, “As you’ve seen, because of an accident, almost the entire virtual world has been stuffed with Aliens, and most people have returned to the real world to avoid this crisis…”
Speaking of which, he suddenly stopped, turning to ask curiously, “If it were in your world, what would you do?”
“In our world, such dangerous monsters wouldn’t erge…” the Doctor said speechlessly.
“But what if?” Lincoln pressed.
“If that were the case…
if such a situation occurred, we would exterminate them thoroughly as soon as possible to minimize impact.”
“Is that so,” Lincoln nodded, but then shook his head and said, “I have a slightly different idea.”
After saying that, he looked at Mavis, “Mavis, I need a favor.”
“No problem!” Mavis jumped down from Lincoln’s body, “Mavis is ready!”
Lincoln flexed his fingers and began to work with Mavis’ cooperation.
This Alien disaster had finally dragged him into it as well.
But the first thing he did was not to help fight the Aliens, but to post a Spiritual Rhinoceros mont—
[Welco to the age of the Aliens!]
[Shelters have opened, virtual real estate is now an absolute Safe Zone]
[Current player-to-Alien occupied area ratio—12 : 88]
[Alien occupied areas reduced to zero, players win, Protheus Plan activated.]
[Player occupied areas reduced to zero, Aliens win, Wandering Earth Plan activated.]
[Logistics system, Scoring system, Support system, Wandering system countdown to online: 3h]
