Chapter 681: Chapter 648 “Tide of Elimination”
Super Tomato opened the Battlefield map and glanced at the size of the teor Crater, then his whole body felt unwell—
The crater itself could hold 4 player selected positions, almost two tis larger than the nuclear bomb pit that had turned into a lake!
If this thing falls directly on us…
“Please don’t effing hit us!”
The nuclear bomb accurately hit its target within 3 seconds, a massive mushroom cloud rose, the earth trembled, the sea waves churned, and the large cargo ship shook once again.
The ever-diligent Recon Soldiers, however, did not report where the nuclear bomb hit in ti.
No one knew if they were hit by the nuclear bomb and died on the spot, or if they were too busy watching the teor in the sky to care.
Yes, the teor hadn’t landed yet!
Normally, the falling speed of a teorite should be faster than that of nuclear weapons.
Super Tomato subconsciously thought: Perhaps in order to better present the visual effects of the teor falling, or to give players more ti to find open spaces, the designers of Yunng slowed down the falling speed of the teorite a lot.
But soon he couldn’t think about this anymore, because in his line of sight, the teorite was getting bigger!
This is not a good sign!!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Although everyone was staring at the fast-falling teorite in panic and felt that disaster was imminent.
But the “Artillery” still managed to fire in ti—
Even if we’re going to die the next second, we’ll enjoy this second first!
The Russian Tank Soldiers couldn’t imagine that at this critical mont, soone was still firing!
But it’s too late to counterattack. The teorite is right above their heads!
Super Tomato, who had been watching the teor’s trajectory from the beginning, was shivering with fear: “Quick, turn around!! Full speed!! It’s coming towards us!”
But as soon as he called out, he realized he was being silly.
Run, there’s no way to run!
“Damn it!”
“So big!”
The players on the deck all stretched their necks in surprise.
In the forest not far from the shore, the players from all four countries who were in the middle of a lee all stopped, watching the huge teorite, burning with fierce flas, pass over their heads and smash into the sea.
——The developnt team of “Battlefield” specifically designed a set of algorithms for the falling point of teorites, which is completely different from nuclear weapons.
If no one finds the nuclear weapon controller and the target is not manually changed, then the first fall point will be chosen in the periphery of the map, where players are relatively scarce, which does effectively serve as a “shrinking circle”.
But the teorite will, according to the algorithm, lock onto the top three targets in terms of number of people, weaponry, and battle record, and then randomly pick one to strike.
Of course, it doesn’t strike directly, but hits the edge to indirectly weaken the strongest force, playing a certain balancing role.
However, this is just the ideal effect in the mind of the developnt team.
As for the actual effect…
The teorite flew low over the heads of the Russian and German players, the intense heat ignited the forest, nearby players felt like they would breathe sparks into their lungs, causing them to cough incessantly.
Then, the teorite hit the ocean.
It didn’t hit anyone.
But, the situation had just begun—
The mont the teorite entered the sea, it stirred up a huge wave over eighty ters high!
The nearby cargo ship was imdiately pushed up into the sky by the waves, even though it was a large ship over a hundred ters long, it was now being tossed around by the waves like a small raft.
Inside the cargo ship, a lot of players were thrown into fits of vomiting, rolling around in the cargo hold like a ball while retching.
Why only talk about the inside of the cargo ship?
Because the players on the deck were thrown off the ship and sank into the sea in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.
Even the players inside the ship were dying one after another from the violent jolting, and it looked like they would all be wiped out here.
The players on the shore did not have the luxury of schadenfreude.
Under the rising massive water vapor, a wall of water about seventy to eighty ters high, like a continuous wall connecting the sky and earth, was rolling towards the shore.
This level of wave was a genuine super tsunami!
Given the distance between them and the coast, they were definitely within range of the tsunami!
“Run! Run now!”
Players on the shore instinctively darted away from the coast.
The Russo-German Coalition and the Austro-Hungarian Army, who were fighting to the death just monts before, all leaped out from their hiding places, running shoulder to shoulder, fleeing for their lives.
But under the wrath of this level of natural disaster, not even players in armored vehicles could outrun it, let alone those on foot.
In the blink of an eye, the tsunami rushed up the shoreline, enveloped the forest, and rolled inland.
Along its path, a multitude of trees were snapped in half or even uprooted. Players, armored vehicles, dirt, rubble, architectural wreckage… even tanks were swept towards the east.
At the forefront of the tsunami, a broken freighter slowly sank into the water.
South of this sinking freighter, two additional freighters were being rocked violently in the tsunami; their tal hulls screeching under the strain and at any mont could split apart, sinking the players on board into the ocean.
“What the fuck!!!”
So players who were initially delighting in the misfortunes of others while watching the spectacle from a safe distance were shocked to discover that they too had beco part of the disaster!
With only enough ti to curse, they were caught in the torrent, their fate unknown.
The unluckiest lad, only looked up to see a massive freighter crashing down onto him!
The System’s elimination announcents were non-stop —
[T1 War Zone – Russia, has exited the battlefield]
[T2 War Zone – Germany, has exited the battlefield]
[T3 War Zone – Austria, has exited the battlefield]
[T3 War Zone – Hungary, has exited the battlefield]
[T3 War Zone – Belgium, has exited the battlefield]
[T3 War Zone – Johor, has exited the battlefield]
…
…
One fact needs to be reiterated:
‘Battlefield,’ this ga, has not yet officially launched; what players are experiencing is still just the early access version.
What this ans is: the ga is not perfect, and many areas still need adjustnts.
The first [Peak War] was also the case; although players were able to experience never-before-seen gaplay, the cost was: there will inevitably be parts of it that feel frustrating.
This teorite was a complete surprise.
Normally, it would have fallen far from the strongest factions and caused a violent earthquake upon impact.
Although this would lead to considerable damage, it would primarily affect the terrain.
For the players, as long as they were not in an area with a concentrated number of buildings, the damage they endured would not be unmanageable.
As for areas with a high density of buildings, the teorite’s potential landing spots would take them into consideration, avoiding these areas or falling farther away.
The developers thought of all these issues.
However, due to the short amount of developnt ti, they did not foresee that the strongest teams would gather at the sparse coastlines.
They also did not anticipate that the teorite-triggered tsunami would lead to such terrifying consequences.
It even resulted in an “Elimination Tsunami”!
Without a doubt, once this Peak War is over, the teor chanism will definitely be revised.
*
Watching the astonishing scenes on the battlefield, both Ren Jian and Zara were left speechless, their mouths agape in shock.
The audience, too, were astounded —
“This is just absurd, it’s absurd to the maximum!”
“You call this a [Peak War]? This is a downright [Survival Challenge], right? The aim is to see who can last longer under Yunng’s tornt!”
“Hey, we’re not going to get eliminated like this, are we?”
“No way! After staying alive for so long, we’re going to be wiped out by Yunng’s tsunami?”
“Don’t talk nonsense! We’re not eliminated yet, I’ve been keeping an eye on the System’s announcents!”
