Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 155 - 155: 153: The Streamer Teaches You How to Play Games

In gunfight games, bank robberies have always been a staple.

When Lincoln designed “Assassins’ Alliance”, he naturally kept this classic feature.

He even led a team to create five different banks, aiming to surprise players when they came to rob them!

It follows the same principle as the gun shops. Many small banks, when robbed, have fixed reaction logic.

But the five specially designed banks have completely different logic and varying difficulty levels.

At the very least, a team of five people with multiple special skills above Level 5 is required to succeed.

Not to mention, you need to have [Lock-picking Expert Level 5], right?

If the NPCs don’t cooperate and refuse to open the safe, how many explosives do you plan to use?

Once you blast it open, how many Metropolis Police will be attracted to the scene?

Lincoln conservatively estimates that it might take at least a week for anyone to succeed in robbing a large bank.

As for small banks? There isn’t much cash, so rob at will.

Lincoln liked Super Tomato’s video, put down his tablet, and headed to his workspace.

– Today is another day of hard work and research!

As Lincoln began a new day of research, players also started a new day of combat.

In Yi’s live broadcast room, after failing to break the window yesterday, he finally started progressing in the main storyline.

Because of Cloud Dream’s anti-addiction measures, he didn’t attempt another marathon.

Today, after logging in, he continued with the main missions obediently.

But after entering the assassin base, there weren’t any significant plot points. From then on, it was various training tasks and selecting suitable assassination missions.

Here, Lincoln gave players some freedom in choosing which abilities to improve first or which assassination missions to undertake.

As the name suggests, skill training tasks grant skill experience accordingly.

As for assassination missions, in addition to improving skill proficiency during the mission, players also receive combat experience. This can be converted into skill experience and used for upgrading skills, albeit with some loss.

However, assassination missions also provide monetary rewards, so there are gains and losses.

How to arrange it is entirely up to the player’s choice.

Yi’s choice was to train the skill [Shooting Mastery]. His proficiency had now risen to [Shooting Mastery Level 3 (52/500)].

In the lower right corner of his live stream screen, he also posted a QR code for a chat group.

He had just created a gaming group named “What’s in the Bathroom?” The requirements to join the group were quite strict.

Only players who owned a Mirage Console, already purchased the “Assassins’ Alliance” game, and were willing to contribute their in-game virtual wives for the purpose of breaking into the bathroom could join.

The design of “Assassins’ Alliance” is unique. Only when it comes to critical plot points involving combat can players resurrect from an auto-save checkpoint and retry in case of failure.

Ordinary plot points do not have this save and retry feature.

So to break into the bathroom, players can either reset their account or wait for new players to join the game and try to enter the bathroom in the new player’s world.

After numerous attempts, Yi had become certain that new accounts could not break into the bathroom without upgrades or powerful weapons.

So, resetting the account was abandoned, leaving only the option of entering new players’ worlds.

The purpose of establishing this group was to upgrade, discuss, and attempt to break through the bathroom door.

Yi still held great enthusiasm for this mission and warmly welcomed new players who had passed the screening to join the group.

His enthusiasm was even greater than when audience members sent gifts.

Yi’s goal was firm: “I am the man who will claim the ‘Bathroom First Clear’!”

Meanwhile, Super Tomato, also in Yi’s group, didn’t join the game this time.

Because he discovered an interesting thing: it turns out that players can invite friends to visit their virtual house in the virtual world!

The reason behind the discovery was that he received an invitation from a long-time audience member of his live broadcast room. Out of curiosity, he accepted.

After accepting the invitation, he didn’t appear in the virtual city of “Assassins’ Alliance” but instead found himself in a virtual house.

This audience member invited him over to showcase their meticulously decorated house.

Super Tomato only realized this then.

With the sharp intuition of a professional video uploader, he immediately started organizing a “Virtual Homestead Decoration Contest.”

If you are interested in decorating houses and confident in your unique decoration skills, you can invite him over to show off your work to the audience in his live broadcast room.

As a professional video uploader, he would record the entire process, visiting each home one by one.

Those houses with the most unique decorations will become the material for his new video.

Super Tomato had good intentions, letting players widen their horizons, seeing the homes of decoration experts, and learning from them while decorating their own.

However, things didn’t go as he imagined…

After accepting several invitations in a row, Super Tomato saw interior decoration in eight out of ten houses was extremely inhumane!

It was difficult to describe the luxurious, festive, tacky, and eye-piercing styles formed by the various mixed elements.

There were even bizarre styles, post-battlefield styles, magical realism styles…

The most outrageous Dlaver decorated their house like a wedding for a

deceased couple, which was a strong psychological shock to Super Tomato.

So Super Tomato changed his mind.

—Whether exceptionally beautiful or exceptionally ugly, regardless of luxury, simplicity, tackiness, strangeness, or eyesores, just bring it on!

Even if the audience can’t learn advanced techniques, at least they can share in the mental shock!

Let’s all hurt each other!

Camille Victoria spent most of the day playing nonsense with her group friends yesterday, barely progressing in the game’s plot.

She had planned to push through the main missions today, but her plans were disrupted by a private message from a fan.

The fan told her, “Although you can’t customize your face in ‘Assassins’ Alliance,’ makeup does work! And once you have good makeup, you can save it directly! ”

What’s this? This is Camille Victoria’s ultimate dream – makeup once, benefit forever!

Excited, Camille Victoria wandered around the virtual Metropolis, looking for cosmetic shops, beauty salons, makeup stores, and even wedding dress shops that could help with makeup.

After all, her makeup skills are mediocre, so if she doesn’t want to embarrass herself, it’s best to seek help in the virtual world.

It’s not enough to visit one shop, she had to find the next one too.

She’s decided: she’ll try to visit as many shops as possible, comparing which ones apply makeup that suits her taste.

Plus, she could also make a “Makeup Strategy Guide” for interested viewers.

In order to have enough money to put on makeup in different shops, she even robbed a convenience store with a fire axe.

Throughout the entire robbery, Camille Victoria didn’t resort to violence, and she spoke softly and politely.

But with the fire axe in her hand, she successfully looted the store’s cash register.

She didn’t get much money, just over 800 dollars. Two NPC cops arrived on the scene, but they left without finding the suspect, Camille Victoria.

But having little money also caused another problem: she ran out of money after visiting a few shops.

After leaving the makeup store, Camille Victoria looked at the remaining money and helplessly started looking around for a fire axe again.

When she finally found the fire cabinet and was about to smash it open, she suddenly saw a comment pop up in her live streaming room:

“Why not just put on fishscale makeup?”
