Chapter 1106: Chapter 359: I’ve Never Fought Such a Wealthy Battle
Don’t even mention the Cubans; even Lin Miao didn’t expect this bunch of crazies to fly their tanks up and engage in aerial combat.
The representatives from several other military industrial companies watching were dumbfounded, mouths agape and breathless.
If they were live streaming, this segment alone would have caused a sold-out frenzy for Military Technology’s tanks and skyrocketed their market value.
However, it can also be edited and uploaded later as a recorded broadcast.
Player battlefield recordings have become the norm, with the sky full of Military Technology’s planes, editing out a segment isn’t too difficult, though the effect might be a bit lacking.
Over at Military Technology, they’re frantically calling Lin Miao, with even their contact speaking with honorifics.
"Respected Mr. Lin, could you please provide information on the crew inside the vehicle? Our company is interested in hiring them as commercial spokespeople for Military Technology’s combat vehicles."
"It would be best if you could package and sell their live emotional data as part of Mewtwo, and I assure you the price will definitely satisfy your company."
"That’s doable, you can discuss specific terms with Mr. Handz later. As for the spokespersons... the prerequisite is they survive, but I think the likelihood is quite low, you better not have high hopes."
"Ah... it’s truly a pity."
Military Technology also wanted to retrieve player battlefield data and create Mewtwo themselves, but their editors are technically inferior to Lin Miao’s team. The internal experience vote was overwhelmingly one-sided, so they simply outsourced the Cuban Mewtwo editing to Horizon Corporation afterward.
These things were selling like hotcakes in the market; the initial version of Super Earth’s attack on Hokuma Mewtwo could sell for thousands of euros per piece, and even internal Mewtwo inadvertently flowed out through the Dog Town black market.
This further spawned a large number of pirated Mewtwo circulating on the market, with Lin Miao only symbolically implementing some anti-piracy measures.
Basically, anyone with a bit of internet skills could crack it.
Because what’s being sold isn’t just Mewtwo, it’s a cultural war.
European media’s slander against Horizon Corporation in Cuba was thoroughly trounced by these pirated Mewtwo, despite their repeated claims that Mewtwo were fake, artificially edited false information.
But it was useless.
Do the newspapers report the truth?
It’s well-known that in Europe and America, only statements opposed by the government are true.
Over the years, everyone knows the news written in these corporations’ newspapers is crap, too hard to even wipe your butt with.
Under the influence of reverse psychology, these Super Dream Chips became a hot underground market commodity in Europe.
Some small newspapers seeking fortune and fame used these Mewtwo contents to openly oppose big media.
Lin Miao virtually did nothing, yet this group cracked open a hole in public opinion themselves.
Turning back to the reality of the battlefield,
The tank is still flying in the sky.
As long as it maintains the balance of lift and gravity, it can fly until the fuel runs out.
"Hahaha, I shot it down! I flew a tank and shot down a plane in the sky, first kill! First server kill! I’m so hyped right now! wryyyyy!!!"
When the server-wide announcement echoed in the channel, the four-man team’s excitement had them flushed and breathing hard, the seductive woman hadn’t even retracted back into the hull, eager to stand tall in the sky and proclaim this glorious feat to the world.
Such a combat record might be unique even in Cyber 2076’s entire history, and they recorded it!
"Stop celebrating, incoming enemy missiles!"
The Giant called out for Shui Yue to pull the still-hyped-up seductive woman back into the tank while he covered Potato’s mouth with his hand.
"God bless! Smooth sailing!"
Faced with infrared missiles, the tank moving at 80km/h has no supersonic maneuvers to shake off the missiles, nor does it have flares or chaff, virtually a sitting duck.
The only thing that can play a role in this process is the tank’s active defense system on either side.
Besides praying in the tank, they had no other option.
In the face of the infrared missiles speeding towards them, armor capable of stopping machine cannon fire was so fragile; a direct hit would turn this iron turtle into a fireball.
But sometimes, damn praying works!
Just as no one could fly a tank into the sky, some people’s actions can earn a smile from Lady Luck and the God of Machines.
The tank’s radar captured those two infrared missiles that hadn’t yet accelerated to the limit, and the lieutenant quickly launched two defense rounds, with the missile warheads just two meters from the tank—a flash at 4 mach speed.
But the defense system had already predicted the trajectory and impact points of the missiles, and the four defense rounds intercepted were on their inevitable path, just inches apart.
Boom, boom—two missiles were intercepted by the defense system, exploding into two large fireballs.
WOW!!!!!!!
The Horizon Company’s building erupted in cheers, seeing the missiles intercepted was even more exciting than watching Horizon win the battle themselves.
Even the board couldn’t help but shout.
"Raise their pay! We must give the defense system design team a raise!"
They were thrilled, but the few in the tank certainly weren’t.
Because the radar showed more and more Cuban jets starting to lock onto them.
The active defense system can’t fend off another volley, which means they’re doomed.
"Can’t do it, we’re screwed."
The Giant directly took his hands off the keyboard, ready to type GG.
"But managing to shoot down a plane before dying, I can brag when I get back, it wasn’t in vain."
