They promised to promote history, but what the hell is this Three Kingdoms Kill game?!

Chapter 58: The Preliminary Rounds Begin!

Inside the Tencent Building, in an office.

Wang Lin was also watching the official live stream of "Three Kingdoms Kill" while sitting in his chair.

Since Qian Jin is unreliable, I have to handle everything myself. This time, I also want to see what I can learn from the live stream.

These are all things that can be achieved when holding "Hero Kill" competitions in the future.

But this glance allowed Wang Lin to glean a lot of information.

I originally thought that the reason why "Three Kingdoms Kill" launched the general expansion pack was just to expand the offline market, but I didn't expect Lin Lang to add a collectible attribute to it.

Originally, "Hero Kill" also tried to develop offline, but only a small number of people bought the physical cards of "Hero Kill".

At the time, Wang Lin didn't pay much attention to offline sales, believing that it was enough to do the best online first, and then use the influence of "Hero Kill" to seize the market.

But now, the offline market has long been dominated by "Three Kingdoms Kill".

That's not the key point. The important thing is the spokesperson reward that Lin Lang launched!

This directly turned the top three into his own people, regardless of what type of streamer they were, even those who streamed "Hero Kill" were treated the same.

This directly thwarted Wang Lin's idea of ​​letting the "Hero Kill" streamer win the championship.

Once you win the championship, it doesn't matter what kind of streamer you were before, you'll be a streamer for "Three Kingdoms Kill" from now on!

Wow, that's brilliant!

A glint of surprise flashed in Wang Lin's eyes. You may have your clever plans, but I have my countermeasures!

Since no contract has been signed, he believes that as long as the same offer is made, the original streamer of "Hero Kill" will still come back.

Then we can create a news article to highlight this point, and see where you "Three Kingdoms Kill" will put your face!

After thinking about this question, Wang Lin turned his attention to the new mode of "Three Kingdoms Kill"!

Unexpectedly, this game will undergo three gameplay updates in just a few months!

What is Lin Lang's brain made of to come up with so many patterns!

The last time "Hero Kill" gained popularity, it was stolen by the new mode of "Three Kingdoms Kill", although it also had some minor issues.

But it's still a problem with the new model!

Yes! That's it!

This time, however, Wang Lin was not nervous at all, because he had already made preparations.

"The new mode for 'Three Kingdoms Kill' is coming out, and I need to copy it all before they update the game!" Wang Lin came to the "Hero Kill" project team and gave them a death order.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang! I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

In order to deal with this situation, Wang Lin specially expanded the project team, with the aim of replicating "Three Kingdoms Kill" as soon as possible!

If Qian Jin is reliable, I might even be able to update the new model before them!

But Qian Jin is such a piece of trash!

They actually betrayed us without our consent!

But thankfully there's still some time before the update for "Three Kingdoms Kill," which is enough!

Thinking of this, Wang Lin smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that Lin Lang had been too careless.

.....

The following day, Langyu Studio.

In the office,

Lin Lang, Chen Nan, and Shen Qi discussed the game updates and platform matters after the competition.

During this period, Chen Nan was in charge of the [LYG] platform, while Shen Qi was responsible for updating the new version of "Three Kingdoms Kill".

"The servers for Mr. Lin's platform have been rented out, and the client-side prototype has been set up. Currently, five professionals have contacted me." Chen Nan informed him of the progress over the past few days.

"Sure, we'll hire all these people as long as they have the skills, and pay them the highest salary in the industry! How's the game update going?" Lin Lang looked at Shen Qi.

Shen Qi stepped forward: "Currently, the two new modes are in the testing phase, and the new generals and skins have been completed. They will definitely be finished before the end of the month!"

Lin Lang nodded after hearing this. The company is currently pursuing two projects simultaneously, and every project is of paramount importance!

With its current scale, the game "Sanguosha" has become a moat for the [LYG] platform.

Therefore, it cannot afford to have any problems. Lin Lang was very worried about the situation on Earth, as the game was gradually heading towards its end.

"There's another reason I called you here. Do you remember 'Three Kingdoms Dress-Up Simulator'?" Lin Lang looked at the two of them with a serious expression.

"How could I forget? That was the first game we played in the [History Competition], even though it didn't go very well!" Chen Nan clicked his tongue. "So, Mr. Lin, is this project going to be restarted?"

Shen Qi also cast a curious glance. Wasn't this game rejected by Lin Lang? And it certainly hadn't been tested by the market. We can't repeat the same mistake!

"Um...you're half right. I do want to pick up this game again, but not a dress-up game!"

Lin Lang explained his plan: "The 3D technology in this game is something we've poured our hearts and souls into, so of course we can't throw it away."

"Shen Qi, notify the project team to make this 3D general wield weapons, mount and dismount... basically, make him move!"

As Lin Lang spoke, he took out another book from the drawer.

"This is a story about the Three Kingdoms that I've been writing recently. Ideally, it could be recreated using 3D technology!"

Shen Qi and Chen Nan stared wide-eyed at the book, never expecting that Lin Lang would actually create a story about the Three Kingdoms.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms! That's a great name! Lin Lang, you're amazing, you know everything!" Chen Nan quickly picked it up and began to admire it.

Shen Qi, standing to the side, also cast an admiring glance. No wonder he was the man she liked!

That's amazing!

"Mr. Lin, are you planning to release it now?"

Lin Lang shook his head: "Only the two of you have seen the complete version of this book so far. I plan to release it after the New Year! You two read it first."

He didn't intend to just take this book out and use it casually; he wanted to save it for a crucial period!

For example, when judging the [history competition]!

"So, Lin Lang, are you planning to make an RPG game?" Chen Nan seemed to understand his thoughts.

"That's right, but that's a matter for later! Let the project team design it first. Right now, the focus is on the new platform and game updates!" Lin Lang agreed with his guess.

Langyu Studio cannot rely solely on "Three Kingdoms Kill," and the [LYG] platform cannot have only one popular game.

Since it starts from the Three Kingdoms period, let's make it around that!

Let players experience even more of its charm!

Upon hearing this, Chen Nan was overjoyed. Langyu Studio was finally going to release a big-budget game, and it was also based on the Three Kingdoms theme. Players who love "Three Kingdoms Kill" would surely love it!

Upon receiving the order, Chen Nan immediately notified his employees to optimize the "Three Kingdoms Costume Simulator," while Shen Qi returned to her workstation, intending to carefully read through "Romance of the Three Kingdoms."

8 PM.

The official live stream room for "Three Kingdoms Kill".

After yesterday's preliminary group selection, the preliminary rounds officially begin today.

Su Keke was still wearing the Diao Chan cosplay outfit from yesterday. Today, Bai Xiaotong was streaming with her. Bai Xiaotong had been a commentator in the last offline competition, so she asked her to help out.

"Hello everyone! Today is the first preliminary round of the 'Three Kingdoms Kill' streamer competition, and Bai Xiaotong and I will be providing commentary for you!"

Hi everyone!

The two women won the hearts of many viewers as soon as they appeared on camera. The two beautiful women with their own unique styles are a sight to behold even if you're not watching the game!

When is Bai Xiaotong going to do a live stream? I'll set up a streaming account for her!

[Xiao Qiao is here, but Da Qiao isn't? I want to see the twin beauties!]

[The guys did it three times last night! A full three times!]

Putting everything else aside, if all the commentators for future matches are this good-looking, I'll definitely watch!

From now on, I belong to the "Three Kingdoms Kill" team!

With yesterday's setup, the live stream's viewership instantly surpassed 500,000+ as soon as it started today, with many people waiting for the competition to begin at 8 PM.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's officially begin our 'Three Kingdoms Kill' tournament today!"

"Please welcome our Group A contestants! They are..."

After the players were introduced, Su Keke explained the competition rules again. After 5 games, the rankings would be based on points. If the scores were the same, the final decision would be made based on the damage dealt and the amount of stamina recovered.

Game start!

Meanwhile, in the Zitai live stream room.

[Son, don't embarrass your father! Show some backbone!]

I practiced until 8 a.m. yesterday, so my skills should have improved by now!

[Bring some rankings back for the brothers! At the very least, top eight!]

Sitting in front of the camera with a focused expression, it was its first time participating in a "Three Kingdoms Kill" competition, and it was quite excited.

Although the viewers often like to exchange a few words and make jokes.

But when it came to the competition, true fans still gave their full support!

It's a pity that these supports and attitudes are no longer visible, otherwise there would be cheating.

Soon, after receiving the start signal from the staff through his headset, Zita officially entered the game.

In the first game, he was lucky enough to be assigned the role of the "Lord".

Currently, the Three Kingdoms Kill game offers four fixed generals for the player to choose from: Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Cao Cao, and Zhang Jiao.

Without hesitation, he immediately selected Sun Quan, as he had the highest win rate among all the characters he had played for so long.

The presence of [Balance] allows him to quickly draw cards and find what he needs.

Since it was the first game, he didn't choose to attack. Instead, he drew a +1 horse and a Renwang Shield to protect himself.

"In this game, the lord didn't choose to attack rashly, but instead opted for a defensive strategy. Xiaotong, what's your opinion on this choice?"

In the main live stream room, Su Keke started to liven up the atmosphere and took the initiative to discuss the gameplay of each player.

"I think it's feasible. This is the first game, so everyone's strategy is very conservative. Also, one of the two loyalists chose Zhang Fei, and the other chose Zhang Liao."

They still have considerable offensive capabilities; now it all comes down to how well they coordinate their attacks!

Because it's from God's perspective, Bai Xiaotong is very clear about everyone's hand and identity, and she also provides commentary based on the combinations of generals on the field.

"Moreover, two of the traitors in this line are Eggplant and Old Ma. I'd like to see if they'll team up to defeat Zitai!"

Just as Bai Xiaotong said, the competition quickly identified "three" loyalists, among whom there was also a traitor.

Instead of playing it safe, Eggplant and Old Ma equipped themselves with weapons and began their attack. Their generals were [Lu Bu] and [Xu Chu], respectively!

Just split it open!

There aren't that many tricks up your sleeve!

The other two teammates joined in when they saw this.

However, all of these issues were resolved through the cooperation of the [Lord], the [Loyal Minister], and the [Traitor].

There are now only 3 people left on the field. Although it's unclear who the "loyal subjects" are, he has chosen the safest approach.

Control both of them down to one drop of blood, then leave the rest to them!

This method is also very common and is generally suitable for lords who cannot distinguish the situation in battle, but it is at least better than a clueless lord.

Anyway, you can get points even if you win!

Ultimately, with a single "Duel" move, they successfully secured victory in this match.

"Phew..." Zi Zi let out a heavy breath, a smile spreading across his face. He had won his first battle!

I'm at least better than Eggplant and Old Ma!

Keep up the good work!

But then came three consecutive losses!

The highest score in the group has reached 11, but he still hasn't moved up to 3 points. He is now in the same tier as Eggplant and Old Ma.

Now let's see who comes out on top in the final game!
