Collapse Iron: What does it mean to broaden the fate of four people in one sentence?

"It allows me to have fun."

Chapter 3 The Sole Mission: Rescue Belberg

The next second, Lin Si controlled Bronya's body and instantly disappeared from the spot.

boom! ! !

One of the Rift Creatures flew out, knocking over its three companions, which rolled into a heap.

Lin Si's movements did not stop.

He froze at the moment his leg muscles tensed, and in the process, he raised the spear.

Bang bang bang!

Three shots fired in quick succession.

Every shot hits its mark.

The three monsters that tried to pounce from the side fell to the ground with a thud, each with a hole in its forehead, all in the same spot.

The guards stared in disbelief.

They had seen Lady Bronya fire a gun before; as the daughter of the High Guardian, her marksmanship was among the best in all of Beloborg.

But what is this in front of me?

This isn't marksmanship, this is art!

"What are you standing there for?" Lin Si's voice came from behind.

"Fill the gap, three gaps, seven o'clock direction."

The guards, as if waking from a dream, quickly acted according to his instructions.

It wasn't until they arrived that I realized what those words meant.

Three gaps? Seven o'clock direction?

How did he manage to observe the entire battlefield while firing his gun?

Lin Si certainly can.

As a gaming legend, his greatest strength lies in maintaining a comprehensive view of the battlefield amidst chaos.

In his past life, he played the role of Sun Wukong in the mythology. He recorded a video of himself beating the crippled body of the Great Sage and posted it online, which was jokingly referred to by netizens as "the real and fake Monkey King".

Because his operation was as precise as driving a car, with almost no unnecessary movements.

As for his marksmanship?

If one had to find a reference point, an achievement he made in a past life would be the most suitable for interpretation.

Heavenly Ranking Hunt

Bronya's own consciousness is now observing what her body is doing from a first-person perspective.

That's not a battle.

That was... a massacre.

Every shot hit the monster's weak point precisely, every movement was perfectly timed to dodge attacks, and every displacement occurred in the monster's blind spot.

Her body, like a butterfly, danced gracefully amidst the monsters' encirclement.

No, that's not right.

Butterflies are so gentle.

This is...this is the dance of death.

"Too weak, too weak, too weak!"

Lin Si's voice rang out again, carrying three parts disdain, three parts boredom, and four parts... genuine boredom.

He used the butt of his gun to knock three monsters away, then spun around, using the momentum to fire another shot, knocking down a monster that lunged at him from the right.

Then, with a slide, he dodged the spell released from the side by the Rift Illusion.

During the sliding motion, he even took the time to raise his hand.

boom!

A single shot struck the face of the rifting phantom.

The rift phantom let out a scream, its form becoming somewhat ethereal, and it almost lost its grip on its staff.

Bronya stared blankly.

"The left wing! The left wing has a weakness!"

"Move right! To the right!"

She tried to remind Lin Si every now and then, but Lin Si couldn't hear her at all.

Lin Si even managed to come up with more ingenious solutions each time, such as raising her gun and firing during the slide.

The Demon King's actions gave Bronya a slight shock.

No, my body can still be used like this?

She started playing the gun in elementary school and considers herself exceptionally gifted, standing out among her peers.

But now she realizes that her marksmanship, which she was so proud of, is like child's play in front of the person who "controls" her body.

Those judgments she needed to think to make, those skills she needed to practice to master, were as natural as breathing in this person's hands.

It's like an instinct etched into your bones.

Who is this person... this person who suddenly appeared and is controlling her body?

Seeing how brave "Lady Bronya" was, the Iron Guards charged towards the surrounding monsters with roars of excitement, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"For Belloberg!"

"Charge, following Lady Bronya!"

Lin Si glanced at them but didn't say anything.

High morale is a good thing. Although these NPCs are not particularly strong in combat, their health makes them decent meat shields.

He continued to harvest the creations of the rifts around him, his movements fluid and seamless.

But as the fight went on, his brow furrowed.

He glanced at the system panel.

[Currently Controlled Character: Bronya Rand]

Stamina: 87%

【HP: 100%】

Status: Good

Lin Si: "......."

He then looked around at the endless stream of rift creations surging in from all sides.

Although there were many of them, in his eyes, these monsters were just a bunch of moving targets, slow-moving, with a single attack method, and particularly obvious weaknesses.

Even if another hundred came, he could take them all down without losing a drop of blood.

The prerequisite is that you have unlimited ammunition and your stamina doesn't drop.

Lin Si sighed.

The character he controls has a very high stamina and health bar.

So where does the difficulty of this game lie?

He controlled Bronya to shoot down an approaching monster with a single shot, then looked around.

The Iron Guards are still fighting, but the number of monsters has not decreased significantly.

New monsters keep emerging from the indistinct distance, as if they could never be defeated.

Lin Si was genuinely feeling a bit bored.

If this game only has this level of combat, then it's really boring.

Although controlling Bronya's body allowed him to rediscover the pleasure of standing.

But what's the difference between fighting these mobs that aren't even bots and fighting wooden stakes?

"Hey, you floating one."

He looked up at the illusory rift that had shrunk into the distance.

The illusory figure of the rift trembled.

After Lin Si slammed it in the face with a gun, it dared not approach again, only daring to hide in the distance and use magic to ambush it.

The problem is that every time it raises its staff, Lin Si's bullets arrive.

After three times, it learned its lesson and stopped fighting. Instead, it floated around, waiting for its underlings to come at it.

Lin Si found it even more boring looking at its cowardly appearance.

"Can't you be a little more assertive?"

Rift Illusion: (;'??Д??`)？ ？ ？

Just then,

A semi-transparent work column suddenly popped up in Lin Si's field of vision.

[Released game's sole mission: Save Belloberg]

[Task completion method: Unrestricted]

[Mission Time Limit: 3650 days]

[Background Information: Beloborg is the only remaining civilized city on this planet, which was swallowed up by a cold wave.]

As the daughter of the Great Protector, what do you think you should do to protect your people?

Lin Si glanced at the work list and raised an eyebrow.

A single mission? No restrictions on how it can be completed? A time limit of 3650 days? Ten years?

He looked around at the ever-flowing rift creations and suddenly understood something.

So that's what 99% freedom means?

It's not about letting you easily defeat your way through dungeons; it's about giving you an ultimate goal and figuring out how to achieve it yourself.

Lin Si's brain started working at lightning speed.

Since the goal is to save the only existing civilization on a planet, we certainly can't rush things.

This is a long-term operation, and it might even turn into a simulation management game.

No wonder there are so many monsters; they're probably intentionally designed to be endless, forcing players to think of other solutions.

Complete immersion and combat are just bonuses; the real core gameplay is...

Strategy? Management? Development? Diplomacy?

Lin Si touched her chin (though it was Bronya's chin), lost in thought.

Just then, the stirring "Golden Experience Execution Song" in our ears came to an end.

The last note fell.

Lin Si took a deep breath and waved his hand.

"Collapsed and sold off!"

"Retreat first!"

Chapter 4 Haven't we all heard that there's always a way out?

The guards looked at each other in bewilderment.
