Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Surprised Zhao Ming: Blue Star People Are Quite Something?!

Looking at the barrage of comments, Fang Ming was dumbfounded:

"What the hell?"

"Is this real? Can someone actually clear it?"

"Northern Army?"

"Even the officials are playing games now?"

His team is already among the top FPS game streamers in the Celestial Shark Live gaming area.

It’s such a team.

The longest they’ve lasted is thirteen minutes, without even breaking through the defense line, the game’s difficulty is absurdly high.

Yet it can still be cleared?!

But with the unified stream of comments, it’s evidently not fake.

The fans, though diverse, couldn’t possibly manage to unify both loyal and mocking fans to tell him to watch a certain video.

Though quite incredulous, Fang Ming still mentioned it to his team.

Then he ran to Federation Headline, and as soon as he entered the headline.

He saw the top trending searches.

#[Normandy Landing]successful beach landing.#

#Northern Army: Masters of the battlefield, fighting is our profession.#

#The difference between professional and non-professional...#

....

....

Fang Ming couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Whoa?

It’s really the Great Xia Federation’s Northern Army official account?

This is way too crazy?

What background?

Plus the official backing.

Need to be cautious in the future... could have cursed Polestar Games and its boss quite a lot this afternoon.

Hiss—

Suppressing various emotions within, Fang Ming clicked into the Great Xia Federation Northern Army official account.

The pinned video that greeted him was a thumbnail of [Normandy Landing].

Clicked play.

The screen was all black, then gradually lit up.

On the assault boat.

Fully armed Allied soldiers stood, each with a stern look.

The air around them was entirely different from that of regular players, clearly these were the soldiers of the Great Xia Federation Northern Army.

The leader was saying something while making various tactical hand signals, seemingly planning tactics post-landing.

With slightly dark tones and removed noise, only the sound of the waves and the wind on the battlefield remained.

A strong cinematic feel struck instantly.

The scene changed.

The beach landing battle had already begun without blind charging; instead, everyone immediately sought cover and hid behind it, providing suppressing fire for allies and NPCs yet to land on the beach.

These well-trained Northern Army soldiers didn’t shout even as comrades or NPCs beside them got blown apart, remaining calm.

No modern real-time communication.

The Northern Army opted for tactical hand gestures for communication and task arrangement, relying on steel obstacles on the beach to counterattack the Imperial Garrison on the beach.

The battle was extraordinarily fierce; soldiers fell continually in the video footage.

But similarly.

The fire points of the Imperial Garrison were rapidly eliminated, giving the Allies opportunities to advance.

The scene shifted again.

The fire point of the Imperial Garrison on Omaha Beach had a huge opening torn in the defense line, wire fences blown apart by bombs, machine gun points turned into ruins.

Allied soldiers poured through the torn wire fences, continuously charging into the defense line, engaging in fierce battles with the Imperial Garrison.

The scene kept switching, brutal battles visible everywhere.

Until the transitioned scene gradually darkened, surprisingly the sky had begun to grow dark.

The smoke-laden beach lay silent, Allied soldiers cleared the battlefield.

The sun set in the west.

On the grim battlefield, an Allied soldier shouted:

"Gather!"

All around, Allied soldiers quickly gathered here.

Evidently, these were the soldiers of Great Xia Federation, Northern Army, and quite a number had survived, looking densely packed.

The scene ended completely here.

The barrage of video comments scrolled.

[66666, Northern Army is impressive!]

[My goodness, top streamers across the web spent the whole afternoon and evening on a dungeon they couldn’t clear, and yet this was cleared?]

[Ridiculous, those streamers would be cannon fodder on the battlefield, this is what true soldiers are.]

[Damn, watching this made my blood boil, I want to enlist now.]

[Quickly summon those streamers to learn some skills, hahaha.]

[Laughing, I’m starting a round.....I’m back.]

[Not your buddy? You lasted just three seconds?!]

Fang Ming watched the video, equally shocked, this well-organized coordination was what they lacked terribly.

Watching the video over and over, clicking replay.

After a while, he had to sigh:

"To fight like this, more practice is needed."

"This coordination is incredible...."

But these eighty people couldn’t achieve it.

However, Fang Ming also noticed some issues.

That is, the critical Imperial Garrison’s defense fortifications and fire points were definitely not breached by bombs, which couldn’t cause such effects, some fortifications were entirely destroyed, despite being concrete structures.

Where did explosives and explosive charges blast through?

And the defending fortifications and fire points of the Imperial Garrison are the toughest aspects of this game.

Since it wasn’t explosives or explosive charges that broke through,

Then there’s only one possibility.... air support followed afterward.

Yet they couldn’t hold out until that point.

This is evidently a war of attrition.

All about endurance, just looking at the final battlefield cleanup scene, the sky was already darkening, indicating the length of time taken.

Fang Ming returned to the channel, pulling in a group of teammates.

Shared his findings, Yu Feng also noticed this point, commenting:

"Look at Northern Army’s mode of operation, they didn’t charge immediately."

"Rather they preserved their strength as much as possible, evidently waiting for support, those fortifications and machine gun points were likely bombed by air support."

"But this difficulty is really absurd."

"The Northern Army’s defense area is adjacent to the Slavic Energy Federation there, those trained in the frigid north are fierce and elite, even the cooks are far superior to ordinary people, this difficulty is impossible for regular players."

These top FPS game players are already beaten to this extent, ordinary players need not be mentioned.

After Yu Feng finished venting, the group continued discussing tactics.

After a while, someone suddenly noticed and exclaimed:

"Hmm?"

"The game updated?"

On the other side.

Polestar Game Company.

Zhao Ming was having a feast ordered for the company staff to celebrate.

Suddenly saw the trending topic.

Left Zhao Ming momentarily stunned.

He had added quite a few machine gun points, cleared this difficulty in half a day?

Looking at the trending news and Northern Army’s video.

Zhao Ming was somewhat surprised.

Blue Star people have some skills, indeed cleared it?

Originally thought it would remain uncleared for a while, then find a chance to unlock other battlefields of [Normandy Landing], but now someone cleared it, a level like Northern Army cleared it surely gives regular players a large blow.

Zhao Ming’s plans had no choice but to change.

Put down the things in hand, returned to the office.

Zhao Ming released updates prepared for later upfront, considering World War II encompasses a long period, didn’t mind an early update.

With the release.

Players engaged in playing "World War II: Empire’s Rise," gradually received notifications of game updates.
