Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 541 - 258: [Modern Warfare: Global Rebellion] DLC (4K)
But not killed by the United States.
Instead, killed by the toxic smoke from burning oil wells.
Amidst that apocalyptic scene, while walking, suddenly the world spun, and after falling to the ground, it returned to the main interface of the game.
However, due to the fit between the final fall and the apocalyptic scene.
After the video was uploaded to the internet.
It actually attracted a wave of traffic, adding popularity to the live stream.
And now the identity at the start is within the territory of this place called the Afghanistan Federation, but strangely joined an organization.
Just finished a meeting, Shi Yong found a corner to complain to the Blue Star friends in the live stream:
"Damn it."
"What kind of organization is this?"
"They say they’re fighting the Soviet Union, but according to the information gathered, the Soviet Union withdrew from here over two years ago."
"Fighting them in absentia?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Besides, these brainwashing speeches... may work on NPCs a bit."
"But for players, it’s hard to empathize."
"Could this be some kind of cult?"
As soon as he finished speaking, comments in the live stream floated past:
[It’s not a cult, it’s an organization opposing the United States.]
[That’s right, go check out the latest announcement on the Polestar Official Website.]
[Better to commit suicide, randomly experience the high-tech life of the United States.]
[Laughing, Blue Star is full of high-tech games, just experience something you haven’t played before.]
[Don’t say... Don’t even say....]
Seeing the comments, Shi Yong curiously opened the Polestar Official Website.
After entering the Modern Warfare section.
What came into view was the DLC version update announcement about to go live.
Shi Yong read the title aloud:
"Modern Warfare: Global Anti-Terrorism... New version."
Clicked into the page.
A line of introductory text slowly emerged.
[In 2001, ten years after the smoke of the Gulf War dispersed, the Middle East never truly calmed.]
[Although Iraq Federation was weakened by sanctions, the regional power vacuum gave rise to new conflicts.]
[With the outbreak of the 9/11 incident, the global anti-terrorism war began, the Middle East became the core battlefield between two major camps.]
Three big words appeared one after another, then slowly faded away.
Next, the screen lit up, showing a plane cruising through high altitudes, piercing through clouds, followed by the sudden appearance of a city below!
It’s from the United States’ side....
In the next second.
The sound of shattering glass inside the plane was heard, but the screen abruptly stopped.
The scene flashed.
The desolate mountains of Afghanistan came into view.
Shi Yong was somewhat surprised, as the desolate area in front of him was the Afghanistan mountainous region where he was inside the game, is there some kind of plot here?
As the view panned down.
Suddenly entered a cave, a blurred silhouette of a bearded man appeared.
His gaze was fixed intently on a television.
But because it was sideways.
The Blue Star players couldn’t see the TV screen.
Subsequently, the image slowly faded away.
Appeared at the height of space.
This stunned the Blue Star viewers in the live stream room, not knowing what connection the previous two scenes had, one was the United States and one was Afghanistan, which seemed unconnected.
And from the space perspective here.
The edge of ’Earth’ in the Middle East region, a red circle emerged, marked with several big words at the core.
[Global Anti-Terrorism War Zone]
Seeing this.
Blue Star players vaguely understood that the focus would be on the Middle East region next.
As the scene slowly ended.
What appeared were two opposing dynamic images.
The images showed two opposing camps.
On the left were the elite equipped United States special forces, the flames from guns illuminating the United States’ insignia on the soldiers’ helmets, marked below as [Anti-Terrorism Camp].
On the right were many fierce-looking bandits with covered faces, some holding rifles, some holding bombs, some wielding RPGs, with the broken mural behind them saying "Expel the Devil," marked below as [Al-Qaeda].
Looking at the words [Anti-Terrorism Camp] on the left, Shi Yong clicked it, pulling up an introduction:
[In the name of anti-terrorism, returning to the Middle East, using high-tech equipment and air superiority to strike extremist organizations, while secretly supporting agents to consolidate oil interests.]
[The victors who expelled Iraq Federation from Kuwait ten years ago, now facing more covert terrorist organizations and the convergence of regional resistance forces.]
Seeing the introduction.
Shi Yong clicked on the right [Al-Qaeda], pulling up another introduction:
[From the mountains of Afghanistan to the ruins of Iraq, jihadists, tribal armed forces, and remnants of the previous regime form a loose alliance, using guerrilla warfare, suicide attacks, and propaganda warfare to resist invasion.]
[Claiming to end the order orchestrated by the United States, but each harboring religious fervor, ethnic hatred, or revenge obsessions.]
Looking at the introductions of these two organizations, Shi Yong smacked his lips:
"It’s a bit complicated, guys."
"This anti-terrorism camp is clear-cut."
"Led by the United States, various nations want to seize oil interests in the Middle East under the guise of anti-terrorism."
"This Al-Qaeda appears much more complex."
"Ruins, jihadists, tribes, regime remnants, and so on, each with their religious beliefs, hatreds, and so on and so forth."
"Too scattered, it feels troublesome to experience the plot."
"I really don’t want to keep getting brainwashed."
Seeing this introduction, Shi Yong understood immediately that his recent start-up identity must be related to Al-Qaeda.
Damn... No wonder those NPCs are constantly brainwashing.
Given such a chaotic mix of forces, all with their respective faiths and religions.
It’s no wonder.
Religion is indeed well-suited for brainwashing.
Luckily, they’re Blue Star players, otherwise, they’d truly become war fanatics like those local NPCs.
After all, these years of Blue Star’s anti-war publicity weren’t for nothing.
Especially last year’s episode.
The Polestar’s World War II game made many Blue Star players realize that those who praise wars all the time are just full of nonsense, if actually sent, they’d pretend to be dead.
Just like the high officials on Earth who start wars.
So Blue Star players have a doubled immunity to brainwashing.
The brainwashing within these game organizations is just repetitive of that, only the uneducated, uncultured local NPC natives can fall for it.
The persuasive speeches make the Blue Star players want to laugh.
Facing such persuasive speeches, pretending to be dumb or serious is really hard.
Shi Yong flipped through the announcements.
He then understood, finding the 1991 ’Earth’ world map, hanging it in the live stream room, he opened his mouth to say:
"According to the previously marked global anti-terrorism war zone."
"The entire Middle East region is encompassed."
"And the announcement here also stated, at this 2001 point in time, the main anti-terrorism zones are [Iraq Federation] and [Afghanistan Federation]."
"Looking at the explanation, the United States sure knows how to stir things up."
"In 2001, simultaneously conducting anti-terrorism operations in these two regions."
The announcement contained a description of the 2001 era for [Iraq Federation] and [Afghanistan Federation].
The [Iraq Federation] side mentioned long-standing grievances over ten years, and the outbreak of conflict due to the people’s livelihood bleak under United States sanctions.
[Afghanistan Federation] referred to the 9/11 incident, which the United States asserted was done by Al-Qaeda, so it carried out anti-terrorism and self-defense operations.
What most intrigued Blue Star players was what exactly the so-called 9/11 incident was.
Making the United States retaliate so fiercely.
Alongside privately speculating whether this was another global deception by the United States since there’s just been trickery with the Gulf War, Blue Star players instinctively thought of this layer.
And looking at the early 1991 world map.
The Afghanistan Federation had the Republic to the east, and the Soviet Union to the west.
If there aren’t any hidden agendas, who would believe the United States is just conducting anti-terrorism and self-defense actions, given this location is highly crucial.
But the terrain of Afghanistan Federation isn’t like the vast plains of Iraq.
Too many mountain areas, if guerrilla warfare breaks out....
