Chapter 307: Chapter 168: [Codename ’Fat Man’]
Suddenly hearing this news, Yu Feng and the Blue Star netizens in the live stream were a bit stunned.
Besides Japan’s stubbornness, there’s also the United States’ recklessness.
This is a ’nuclear weapon’, after all.
Apart from its powerful might, the intense radiation can also be lethal.
Are they really using this thing as a conventional weapon?
But think about the [CG] during the Cold War period.
In the CG, the United States and the Soviet Union were both threatening to destroy the world, with a peak of over 70,000 nuclear bombs in stockpile, which seems quite reasonable.
When it comes to madness, it’s still the ’Earthlings’.
At this moment.
Other streamers and players have also reached this point in their plots, with discussions everywhere online about how many ’atomic bombs’ Japan will ultimately face.
After all, they had witnessed Japan’s stubbornness.
The dropped atomic bomb was unbelievably turned into a meteor impact.
The United States, of course, was displeased.
A second bomb was already prepared, and it was uncertain how Japan would cover this up.
At the same time, they understood the madness of the Axis Powers even more.
They really don’t treat human lives as lives.
A hundred million shattered jade?
Japan may not even have a hundred million people, yet they dare to shout such a tough slogan.
But this determination.
Also aroused the curiosity of Blue Star players.
They also want to see.
Just how long Japan can hold out, after all, it’s a game, not real deaths.
So when faced with this plot of using such weapons of mass destruction,
the Blue Star players are mostly expecting to see the ’game plot’ ending.
...
...
A day later.
The Blue Star players thought it would take some more time to drop the second bomb.
Unexpectedly, in the game, just skipping the storyline, only three days had passed, and the United States’ second bomb was ready.
And the map in the main interface’s [Experience Nuclear Explosion] plot mode also changed accordingly.
The introduction changed along with it.
[Earth time, August 9, 1945, the United States, due to Japan’s resistant attitude, dropped a second atomic bomb in their homeland.]
[This action was also due to Japan’s refusal to accept unconditional surrender, and their determined resistance.]
[The nuclear weapon (atomic bomb) codenamed ’Fat Man’, weighing about 4.7 tons, had more power than ’Little Boy’.]
[However, due to the mountainous terrain at the drop site, and environmental restrictions, the effect was slightly less than ’Little Boy’.]
[The high temperatures generated during its explosion (center reaching 3000–4000°C), the shockwave destroyed buildings within a radius of about 3 kilometers, killing about 40,000 people instantly.]
[And the acute radiation syndrome after the nuclear explosion caused the death toll to climb within weeks, with post-war cumulative deaths around 170,000.]
(ps: Polestar Company reminds you: Cherish life, reject war.)
Looking at the introduction.
Many players choose to go in and experience, to see what the ’nuclear explosion’ effect is like here.
And at this time on the Sky Shark Platform.
A streamer from the Japan faction, Mao Xu, was doing his routine live stream of shipbuilding command.
Although it’s a solo [Immersive Plot] mode, which wouldn’t affect the overall game progress, but in his own storyline, the streamer who obtained the position of chief engineer.
Had indeed created quite a few cross-era things, thanks to the technological modifications based on various Blue Star tech reductions.
As long as it doesn’t involve the life or death of ’Earth’ nations’ top leaders, the game doesn’t reset.
So this streamer player from the Japan faction was able to become chief engineer thanks to various cross-era technologies.
At this moment.
Mao Xu was still standing on the ship under construction, analyzing where the ship might have issues through the light-loaded supercomputer in the live stream room.
As the light-loaded supercomputer provided guidance, then informed the NPCs in the game.
Needless to say,
This niche live stream room still had twenty to thirty thousand spectators.
It truly shows how large the population base of the Blue Star is.
Although it doesn’t have as many viewers as those fishing mansions, having these tens of thousands of viewers was enough to support his streaming activity.
As Mao Xu’s gaze swept around.
In the distance.
[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Shipyard]
The words Mitsubishi Heavy Industries floated across the live stream’s perspective.
This is a well-known Japanese company, and its shipyard in this city is also quite famous, it’s an important military industrial manufacturer in Japan.
At this moment.
Mao Xu wasn’t too aware of the war situation.
Mao Xu was walking on the ship.
Suddenly.
The live stream room began to be flooded with viewers.
100,000... 300,000... 800,000... 2.3 million...
In just ten minutes, the number of spectators in the live stream room jumped from tens of thousands to nearly three million.
Even Mao Xu was dumbfounded.
What Mao Xu didn’t know was that due to Japan’s style and madness, very few players on Blue Star chose the Japan faction, even fewer than Italy.
With the beginning of the [Experience Nuclear Explosion] plot, after observing the well-known architecture within the plot, they found your city in Japan after the ’nuclear explosion’.
Blue Star players, curious, searched it up.
And found there was only this one live stream room in this city hosted by Mao Xu.
It’s important to know that even during the European Battlefield, there could be four or five live stream rooms even for the broken fortresses of the Soviet Union, but here in Japan, there’s only this one.
Many people flooded in.
Thanks to the enormous online population of "World War II: Empire’s Rise", even a small portion coming in meant nearly three million flooding into the live stream room.
Moreover, the time in Mao Xu’s live stream room was also August 9.
But judging by the looks of it, it hadn’t begun yet.
So the dense barrage of comments flew across the live stream room.
[Look at the sky! Quickly look at the sky!]
[Streamer, quickly look at the sky! Find a telescope!]
