Chapter 86



"Um... sorry, I was live streaming right now and didn't switch to the backstage, so I just connected the communication signal directly..."

When Tang Tang uttered these words tremblingly, the entire live broadcast room fell silent. Even the person on the other side of the computer seemed to have frozen in an instant. The voice stopped abruptly, leaving only a series of gasps. The next second, no words could be uttered and it fell silent.

After a long while, Marshal Huo on the opposite side seemed to lower his voice and discuss something with others. Finally, he sighed as if he had compromised, and the voice came from the opposite side again.

"Forget it, this isn't a secret anymore. You're all citizens of the Federation, so it's okay for you to know. We originally wanted to announce it after everything was settled, but now we've just moved it up a bit."

"Yes, just as you expected. After consultation between our two major star regions, we have decided to cease hostilities. However, in order to achieve sustainable development together, all resources and technologies must be redistributed. This also determines the future economic and trade exchanges between our two major star regions. Right now, we are stuck at this stage."

When they learned that the news could no longer be concealed, Marshal Huo and others simply gritted their teeth and temporarily changed their approach, deciding to finalize all the contents of the agreement under the attention of the public.

This was a helpless move, but it turned out that the unexpected result was a great success.

After everyone realized that this Marshal Huo was really the old marshal from the Federal Center, everyone became excited and their interest became particularly high.

Not only did people from other star zones continue to flock to the A5 star zone, but even the media companies in the A5 star zone became popular. Countless media companies wanted to come and cooperate with the local media companies in the A5 star zone. The conditions were up to the other party, as long as they were allowed to broadcast simultaneously, it would be fine. It became extremely lively.

What was even more surprising was that the senior officials of the old imperial marshal seemed to have acquiesced to such a proposal, saying that they did not mind letting the people participate in the negotiation. This might be the greatest feat in history to commemorate the merger of the two major political systems of the Federation and the Empire.

What's even more amazing is that the old marshal of the empire opposite seemed to actually recognize Tang Tang. After communicating with Tang Tang's computer, he greeted Tang Tang and said:

"Hey, girl, you're Tang Mu, the designer behind 'Huaxia Dynasty,' right? Not bad, not bad. I really like that game. I play it all the time, and my favorite class is 'Emperor.' I'm just wondering when you can build an empire zone. Climbing the StarNet firewall is such a pain."

Tang Tang was genuinely shocked when these words came out. She had never imagined that the other party also knew about the game "Huaxia Dynasty" and seemed to be a real player?!

Just when Tang Tang was startled, the old players of "Huaxia Dynasty" called out excitedly. If the timing had not allowed, they would have wanted to run directly to each other and exchange player experiences!

It has to be said that no matter whether the old marshal's words were intentional or unintentional, the relationship between the Federation and the Empire suddenly became cordial, and it seemed that they had really achieved a true ceasefire and peaceful coexistence.

The only one who felt it was a bit difficult was Tang Tang.

The task assigned to her by Marshal Huo was more than just an important one, but after careful consideration, Tang Tang decided to grit her teeth and take on the task.

The reason was not anything else, but because after seeing Marshal Huo and the old marshal of the opposite empire couldn't help but bicker with each other, a game mode suddenly emerged in Tang Tang's mind.

That’s right, it’s a game. As a game designer, the only solution Tang Tang could think of was a game. After thinking about it carefully, she found that this game might really be suitable for them.

Of course, before Tang Tang decided to take on this important task, she had already specifically learned about the allocation of the surplus resources.

It turns out that most of the resources in the two major star regions have been basically distributed, including the subsequent mutually beneficial cooperation content. Most of them have been completed, and what remains are almost all resource areas whose boundaries are unclear.

Even if these resource areas were given to the other party, there would not be any big problem, but no one was willing to give in, and no one was convinced. After all, they had fought for so long before, and it was unlikely that they would become so generous all of a sudden.

Therefore, Marshal Huo wanted Tang Tang to help him think of a way to distribute the remaining resource areas in a way that would convince both parties.

"The best part is being able to experience the level of intelligence. Honestly, if we really were to compete in tactics and strategy, those guys from the other empire really couldn't beat me, hehe."

These are Marshal Huo’s original words.

The inspiration for Tang Tang's new game also comes from this sentence. This game is nothing else but a werewolf killing game.

Tang Tang was very familiar with the Werewolf game mode. He had finalized the gameplay in almost no time. He just spent more time on the game background, but it was obvious that these were not a problem at all for Tang Tang, who now had rich experience in game modeling.

Soon, about a week later, a new game that everyone was most concerned about was finally launched. The name of this game was simply named "Star Werewolf".

"Star Werewolf" adopts an eight-player game. They are all members of a star ship, including an experienced captain, navigator, engineer, doctor, cook, mecha warrior, etc., a total of eight professional members. Their goal in a game is to find enough star resources to drive this star ship lost in the universe back to the established star route.

But not all of these eight members are good people. Two of them have been bewitched and received the order to "let this starship get lost in the universe and never return". They will disrupt the actions of others and make the starship deviate from its established route.

In other words, when the starship successfully returns to the predetermined starship route within the predetermined game time, then the six good guys win. On the contrary, if the route deviates and cannot return, then the two bad guys win.

It is worth mentioning that the two bad guys are hidden among the eight members. The other good guys don’t know their identities. Only the two bad guys know who their teammates are and cooperate with each other to cause damage. Moreover, the occupation of each bad guy is not fixed and is random.

Reasoning, guessing, concealment, and deception will be synonymous with this game, but this is also the most exciting part of this game.

Because the players who were trying out the new game this time were rather special, Tang Tang made a very detailed explanation when launching the game, just in case, and fabricated some game clips to illustrate how to play it, so that everyone could have a more intuitive understanding of the gameplay.

It has to be said that this kind of brain-stimulating activity immediately aroused everyone's interest. Soon, the first batch of 'Marshal players' were eager to try and participate. As for the other spectators who were not eligible to participate, they had already run into the game to watch. They also wanted to take a good look at how the big guys played the game. This was something very new to them.

Soon, the first game began. The team drew a combination of two villains, a combination that everyone is familiar with. They are Marshal Huo and a marshal who had fought together many times. Such a combination is known as the "godly partner" in the Federation. Under their joint command, they have hardly ever been defeated.

But because this pair of partners were so amazing, not long after the game started, their identities were suddenly discovered, and they were chased and beaten by the other six good guys. They were in a very miserable state, and one of them died in a short while, leaving only Marshal Huo.

No matter how powerful Marshal Huo's awareness was, it was still no match for the cooperation of the six people on the opposite side. In the end, Xinghang found the resources within the specified time and successfully returned to the established route. The six good people won.

"Again, I don't believe it. This was just my first time playing as a wolf, and I wasn't used to it. I was discovered too early and didn't get any useful benefits, so I lost. I'll understand and won't do it next time."

So, not long after, the second game began.

Unfortunately, this time, Marshal Huo was not a wolf, but a good guy. The ones who drew the wolf were the old marshal of the opposing empire and the current young manager.

I have to say that the old marshal played very well. In the early days, almost no one noticed any problems. It seemed that he was helping the good guys, but he secretly caused a lot of damage, forcing the good guys to leave the starship many times to find materials to repair the starship, creating more opportunities for his teammates to cause damage.

However, it was obvious that the current young administrator of the empire was too impatient and wanted to take advantage of any opportunity to make a fortune. But Marshal Huo and others on the opposite side were not stupid. They were also experienced people. Not long after, the good people were killed, forcing the old marshal hidden among the good people to reveal himself.

In the second half, although the old marshal's side delayed a lot of progress in collecting resources, in the end, Star Navigation successfully returned to the established route, and the good people who cooperated well still won.

Obviously, in the first two rounds of the game, the Empire and the Federation each had an advantage, and neither side had a more prominent advantage than the other.

Until the start of the third game, as the list of werewolves was randomly drawn, the spectators around almost couldn't help but screaming. The reason was nothing else but that the werewolf combination in this round was actually Marshal Huo and the current impatient manager of the empire!

They were the two with the worst relationship, the two who usually didn't get along, but now they had become teammates who needed to work together to win! This was truly a first!

It has to be said that everyone was excited when the werewolf combination appeared, but unlike what everyone guessed that the two could not cooperate, Marshal Huo's originally bad relationship with the other party, as well as the confrontation in the game, became the best cover in the eyes of good people, and no one suspected that the two of them were werewolves.

When they were secretly acting as werewolves, their coordination was exquisite, as if they could guess each other's thoughts, perfectly coordinating and not losing the rhythm at all!

So, after more than ten minutes, the werewolf duo successfully destroyed Star Navigation's expedition route and got lost in the universe, allowing the werewolf duo to win.

This was also the first time the werewolves had won in "Star Werewolf!" You have to remember, these games were six versus two, and really six versus two. After all, the six good guys playing the game together were not to be trifled with. If they weren't careful, the werewolves' little tricks would be easily discovered.

The third game was also the most exciting and best-looking Werewolf game. After the game ended, the spectators couldn't help but cheer excitedly. Through the third game, they understood what the excitement of the Werewolf game was. Everyone couldn't help but get excited and started discussing what they would do if they were wolves.

However, among them, there were two people who were unusually quiet. These two people were none other than Marshal Huo and the current administrator of the empire. After the werewolf cooperation game ended, they fell silent, as if they were deep in thought. After a long while, Marshal Huo finally spoke to each other:

"Well, it seems I underestimated you before. Although you are a bit impatient, you are capable. If we can get higher returns by working together, why not cooperate?"

"As much as I hate to admit it, I have to admit that what you, Huo, said might be right. So, I'll just have to grudgingly cooperate with you, okay? With our combined abilities, we can definitely take our empire and federation to the next level, right?"

"That's exactly what I meant. So what are you waiting for? Let's get started!"

So, two months later, the new cooperation agreement plan between the Empire and the Federation was made public, and in the same year, it was implemented in various star regions. In the past few years, the economic exchanges and trade between the two star regions have reached an unprecedented peak, including tourism, food industry, manufacturing and other basic industries.

Of course, the industry that has reached its peak is naturally the gaming industry, which made great contributions during the cooperation between the two major star regions. Almost every year, a large number of people are waiting for Tang Mu's new works to come out. Even though there is no shortage of talents in the current gaming circle, this does not prevent them from becoming Tang Mu's most loyal fans.

In addition to this, there is another most eye-catching event.

Three years later, a joint exploration team composed of the Federation and the Empire explored a near-death planet in the fringe star field. They received a large amount of satellite images that were both familiar and unfamiliar to everyone. The official announcement was as follows:

If nothing unexpected happens, this planet before us might be the birthplace of our Federation and our Empire. Perhaps our long-lost history will soon reveal its answers on this planet. But we're unsure whether we should call the structure in the satellite image the 'Great Wall' in advance. Perhaps, in the past, we were once part of that 'Chinese people'...

Although all of this remains unconfirmed and requires extensive research, we cannot help but speculate and believe that in our past, there was a brilliant civilization that should be etched in our bones. It is time to return the memory of this brilliant civilization. Our prosperous galaxy awaits your return.

[And we will name this planet - Mother Star, 'Blue Star'.]

The author has something to say:

Facts have proven that the author is really bad at writing emotional dramas_(:з」∠)_
