Chapter 316: Chapter 170: [Sarajevo Incident · Fate’s Choice] The Enraged Blue Star Streamer (7k Double-Length) (3)
And it’s precisely because of this unexpected scenario that watching the young World War II celebrities excites the Blue Star players greatly.
After all, the plot modes of Polestar Games are all single-player.
Which means... if you get close to these World War II celebrities in your single-player story, build good relationships, you might just become an original shareholder.
Stirring up the world later would be even more thrilling.
Many Blue Star players are getting excited.
As the CG ends, the main interface of the game also appears.
Compared to the intense feeling of the ’World War II’ interface, and the chilling sense of the ’Cold War’ series, the main interface of ’World War I’ has a kind of industrial simplicity.
It’s like it’s in transition, seeming to indicate the transformation taking place on Earth.
At this point, on the main interface.
There are two options lit up.
One is the familiar [Immersive Plot] mode for Blue Star players, which is undoubtedly single-player stories.
One is the [Custom Story] mode that Blue Star players haven’t seen before, and Kong Yang’s gaze turned to the button for that mode, immediately a description popped up.
[Custom Story Mode is a free choice mode, players can choose starting locations, identities, and other custom options here.]
[Note: In this mode, players can freely choose the starting time point (such as: during 1890 to 1914), [Immersive Plot] mode has a fixed starting time.]
Seeing the description, Kong Yang understood:
"Got it, brothers."
"The [Immersive Plot] mode starts off with a battle, just like in ’World War II’ where the beginning is Poland, only I don’t know what this storyline starts with."
"The [Custom Story] mode is more casual; not only can you choose identity and location, but also time. It should be for players to interact with celebrities."
"Which one should we play?"
After speaking, there were all kinds of shouts in the livestream chat.
But looking at the barrage, Kong Yang thought for a moment and decided to play the [Immersive Plot] mode.
Because this is brand new, with a complete story structure.
The [Custom Story] mode is like searching through a vast ocean, he naturally won’t abandon the watermelon for sesame seeds, searching for people can be left to players slowly later.
"Alright, it seems more viewers want to watch the story."
"Then let’s first choose the [Immersive Plot] mode."
Then.
Enter the [Immersive Plot] mode.
The screen flashes.
Kong Yang appears in a small alley, sitting on a chair, holding a newspaper in his hand.
At this moment.
Letters appear before his eyes.
[Early 20th century.]
[Imperial rise challenges the Great British Empire’s hegemony, the French Empire and the Imperial feud over regional disputes remains unresolved, Russian Empire and Austria-Hungary continue to struggle.]
[Meanwhile, Austria-Hungary is deeply uneasy about Serbia’s nationalism.]
[On June 28, 1914, Archduke Ferdinand, the heir of Austria-Hungary, visits Serbia on Serbia’s ’Day of National Shame’ and was assassinated in Sarajevo.]
[It was this assassination that ignited the gunpowder keg of the European Continent.]
[With Austria-Hungary’s declaration of war on Serbia, followed by Russian Empire joining in, European powers, allied nations were successively involved, eventually triggering World War I.]
The letters gradually dissipate, then a prompt pops up.
[Congratulations, you have earned the ’Fate Decider’ achievement.]
Looking at the prompt.
Kong Yang let out a soft "Eh":
"Getting an achievement right off the bat?"
"Fate Decider?"
"This achievement seems pretty impressive."
The livestream chat was also filled with question marks, having done nothing yet, starting off with an achievement?
But soon the viewers in the livestream understood why?
Kong Yang examined the surroundings, thinking about the intro in the floating subtitles, and some Blue Star viewers with good memory recognized it.
[Wait a second? Isn’t this the place where Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated?]
[That’s right! I remember in that CG, Archduke Ferdinand turned here, got discovered by the assassin’s companion who botched up, and that’s when he pulled out a gun and shot.]
[Host, quickly check if there’s a gun in your coat!]
The Blue Star netizens in the livestream urged, and Kong Yang remembered.
Isn’t this the scene from the ’World War I CG’ that old Zhao played when presenting awards for the Anti-War Competition?
So now he’s the assassin?
Thinking this way, Kong Yang put his hand into his coat, and soon felt a cold object.
Looking at the gun in his hand.
Good heavens, really playing the assassin role.
The Blue Star viewers in the livestream also suddenly realized, no wonder he got the [Fate Decider] achievement, it’s because this identity could change the world.
Suddenly.
In the distance, not sure how many streets over, gunshots suddenly rang out.
Kong Yang jolted, quickly put the gun back in his coat, and looked around.
Has it begun?
The Blue Star viewers in the livestream also heard the gunshots, but many viewers were urging Kong Yang not to fire to see what the outcome would be.
After all, the results of firing are known.
Thinking of making a move in the new game, Kong Yang decided, saying to the livestream:
"Okay, then I won’t fire."
"Not firing this gun might save millions of lives."
"A sense of responsibility is coming."
"The greatness of being a Fate Decider is well-deserved!"
Kong Yang chatted with the livestream while pretending to read the newspaper, looking around.
Soon.
Archduke Ferdinand’s vehicle turned into the alley, but unlike originally, this time the assassin was played by Blue Star players, so he didn’t fire.
Kong Yang looked up as Archduke Ferdinand’s vehicle went away, then put down the newspaper in his hand.
