Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign
Chapter 33 The Hidden Plot in the Dead of Night

Chapter 33: Chapter 33 The Hidden Plot in the Dead of Night

Looking at the Imperial’s complete plan, Shen Yan felt there was no need to wait for that so-called National War Dungeon anymore.

If he enters the game now, he should be able to win.

This thing is just giving ordinary players a second chance for revenge, right?

He knows the entire plan now, so why wait so long?

Thinking of this.

Shen Yan directly got up and returned to his room, lying in the Virtual Body Sensing Pod to enter the game.

He wants to see what this Imperial business is all about.

Two hours later....

[.....]

[.....]

[Summary: Under your operation, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth successfully resisted for 57 days. You are indeed a capable Prime Minister.]

In the room.

Shen Yan cursed as he got up from the Virtual Body Sensing Pod, feeling pissed and his head pounding:

"What the hell is this?"

"Do the soldiers of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth have any combat power?"

"It’s already clearly ordered."

"How did they still let the Imperial armored forces cut through?"

"If those were my troops, I really...."

Shen Yan gritted his teeth, but he had no way to vent his anger at the game.

No way!

Damn... can’t be me alone who can’t sleep.

Gotta push this game out, promptly grabbed the phone:

"Hello?"

"Old Wu! Get on the game quickly!"

"I found something fun...."

——

On the other side.

Celestial Shark Live, Game Zone.

It’s already late at night.

Many live rooms have closed, compared to the daytime clamor.

Hosts and water friends were much quieter at night.

In many live rooms, there was only the host playing games, with water friends quietly watching the screen.

Quite a few hosts were playing "World War II: Empire’s Rise", most going through the storyline.

Horror game zone host.

In Lu Ran’s live room.

As a lukewarm host in the horror game zone, seeing the popularity of "World War II: Empire’s Rise" explode today.

He also started playing "World War II: Empire’s Rise" on the water friends’ suggestion.

However, the Normandy Landing battle, while indeed thrilling, was just too tough, even though a few simpler beaches were updated tonight, Lu Ran lost interest and instead went through the storyline.

Lu Ran was now playing a Federation soldier, fighting with other Federations.

Compared to the harmonious Six Major Federations.

In this game where Federations can fight each other, it gave many a fresh feeling.

Whizz whizz whizz whizz——

The bullets constantly whizzing over his scalp made Lu Ran nervous and excited, even knowing it was just a game.

Boom!!!

A shell crashed into the next door house, the massive explosion swept through.

Half of the house next door directly collapsed.

Lu Ran, hiding under the window here, only felt his palms go numb from the shock, bones rattling, but had no time to care, the enemy troops outside were pressing up, quickly got up ready to escape.

Lu Ran, while running, spoke to the few hundred viewers in his live room:

"This game is scarier than horror games, really."

"No idea when I’ll just get shelled...."

Bang!

Before he finished his words, Lu Ran felt a massive force hit his head, vision went black.

Didn’t know where the dark gun shot came, knocked him over.

The game screen went straight to a black screen, popping up a message.

[Alexander Ivanovich Ivanov]

[1919.02.08-1939.12.18]

"Damn!!!"

"Died again."

"I’m really impressed."

"This game beats me like, if I were really on the battlefield, might not even survive two days."

"If it’s using this way to make players oppose war."

"Gotta say...."

"This is really sly."

"Completely tortures players to not dare think of war."

Bullet screen started popping up in the live room:

[Laugh, your battlefield death aside, it’s already 2 AM, if you don’t sleep you’ll drop dead.]

[Host slaughtered another NPC, huh.]

[Interact more with other NPCs. Didn’t Polestar Games’ boss say there’s hidden storylines?]

[Just came in, what’s happening with the host’s side, any hidden storyline triggered?]

Looking at the bullet screen, Lu Ran scratched his head:

"Hidden storyline?"

"Haven’t encountered it yet."

"But met several NPCs, interaction is quite real, whatever you ask they’ll answer, and the personalities differ."

"But haven’t bumped into this hidden storyline yet."

"No guides either, probably ’cause the game just launched."

"Someone might trigger it in a few days, I guess."

"We’ll see then."

Saying this, looking at the popped-up death notice.

Lu Ran was ready to click down when he suddenly noticed something:

"Hmm?"

"This name?"

[Alexander Ivanovich Ivanov]

[1919.02.08-1939.12.18]

"Let me find it."

He said, clicking to continue starting a new game.

Changed identity again.

Then opened the backpack in the game, there was a nameplate inside.

Written on it was [Dmitry Ivanovich Ivanov], along with the affiliated troop.

This was left in the backpack automatically upon the first death.

Looking at this name, comparing with the previously deceased character’s name.

[Dmitry Ivanovich Ivanov]

[Alexander Ivanovich Ivanov]

Lu Ran looked surprised:

"The arrangement of names seems like it’s from the Slavic Energy Federation."

"Should be a force based on the Slavic Federation background."

"According to the naming habits over there, these two should be brothers, right?"

"How coincidental would that be?"

"I’m playing as two NPCs, and they’re brothers."

"Is this a game easter egg?"

Bullet screen started discussing noticing this.

[You say, there might really be a chance.]

[From Slavic Energy Federation, it’s name+patronymic+surname. You’re playing as a pair of brothers, possibly sharing a father.]

[But not necessarily, the duplicate name rate over there is too high.]

[Could be tens of thousands named Ivanov.]

[Speaking of, this doesn’t seem like the barracks this time?]

While chatting, someone noticed the host was not appearing in the barracks this time.

Rather, it was a small town.

Lu Ran looked around, indeed not in the barracks, looked down at himself, looks like a postman, with a badge on the clothes

[Andrei Pavlovich Popov]

The backpack contained many envelopes:

"Eh, really not."

"Began as a civilian this time?"

"Makes sense."

"Polestar’s originally planned game release was meant to be a large-scale survival type game."

"Including daily survival storylines in this game also makes sense."

"So far, the game looks good in every aspect."

"Except the storyline is somewhat weak."

"I’ll wander around awhile, then should get offline, played too much today."

While talking to friends in the live room, a bearded uncle stepped out of the post office behind Lu Ran, with a heavy expression:

"Andrei, come with me for a moment."

Turning around to walk into the post office, Lu Ran was dumbfounded, then realized Andrei was calling him.

Has the hidden storyline triggered now?

Hurriedly followed the bearded uncle and entered the post office.

Inside the post office.

The bearded uncle walked into an office, let Lu Ran wait outside, shortly after came out with two letters, handed them to Lu Ran:

"Andrei."

"Later, deliver these two letters to the Ivanov’s house at the corner general store."

"Give them to Mrs. Ivanova."

Lu Ran was curious, took the letters:

"Okay, got it."

"Any other instructions?"

Seems like the hidden storyline triggered, so Lu Ran asked probing questions.

The bearded uncle paused, then said:

"Tell Mrs. Ivanova that her sons are heroes of the Motherland."

Lu Ran was puzzled, looked at the letters in his hand, and spoke:

"Alright...."

Just as he was finishing, his expression froze, the breathing halted for a moment.
