The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

"Crossing the strait within a week?"

Gao Chi's smile vanished.

He stared at the countdown that stretched for 168 hours for several seconds.

"Wait a minute."

"Isn't the promotional video seven hours long?"

"Why has it suddenly become seven days for me?"

The reason was quickly guessed by viewers in the live chat.

[Seven hours is the game's release time; seven days is the entire Dunkirk mission. And time flows so fast; several minutes have already passed!]

[Answerer, the strait is just ahead, swim back!]

Gao Chi controlled his character and looked at the gray sea.

The waves were so high that the opposite bank was completely invisible!

Not a single intact ship could be seen in the distance; only black smoke pressed down on the horizon.

"Swim back?"

"That's unrealistic! Wouldn't they just be caught like seafood?"

As he was preparing to search for clues in the crowd, a muddy hand suddenly grabbed his arm.

A soldier ran up to him, his chest heaving.

"Thomas, don't just stand there!"

"Our troops are regrouping on the outskirts. Commander, all those still capable of fighting are ordered to return to their units immediately!"

After the soldier finished speaking, he grabbed Gao Chi and ran towards the back of the beach.

Gao Chi staggered a couple of steps, then quickly controlled his character to catch up.

"Wait a minute, aren't the evacuation ships at the beach?"

The soldier glanced back at him, then began to explain on his own.

"There are other people on the beach."

"Once the outer positions fall, the German tanks can reach here in half a day. At that point, forget about waiting for a boat; we'll all be driven into the sea!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than another explosion came from afar.

The soldiers on the beach all shrank back, showing no intention of avoiding them.

They glanced up numbly, then quickly looked down again, continuing to queue in the endless line of evacuation.

Gao Chi understood. There was nowhere to retreat or escape; no wonder these people weren't even trying to hide anymore.

Moreover, you need someone to be in charge of blocking them; if everyone boards the ship directly, then no one will be able to leave in the end.

"Okay, get back to the team!"

Gao Chi followed the soldiers through the crowd.

The character had only run a few dozen meters when the countdown in the upper left corner of the screen started to drop rapidly.

【167:46:12】

Gao Chi was stunned for a moment.

In reality, less than a minute had passed, but in the game, more than ten minutes had already been lost.

"Time really does flow fast."

But that makes sense, otherwise we can't really let him stay here for a whole week!

Soon, Gao Chi followed the soldier across the beach to a makeshift command post.

A few planks of wood were placed on top of the ammunition boxes, barely forming a table. The map was constantly flipped by the sea breeze, and several officers were standing around giving orders quickly.

Nearby, several soldiers were taking weapons out of boxes.

Several rifles were leaning against the wall.

On the table next to him were grenades, magazines, and first-aid kits, and a Bren light machine gun was mounted behind him.

The entire area was bustling with activity, with people transporting ammunition, maintaining order, and assisting in moving the wounded.

Gao Chi felt like he could participate, because as soon as he walked over, people would have the option to interact directly.

"Soldier, are you here to help me deliver ammunition to the outer positions on the eastern flank?"

Gao Chi turned and left. What a joke! He finished his delivery job early to come back and start his live stream. He couldn't possibly continue delivering things to others after entering the war game, could he?

"Brothers, we're already here."

"I bought a war game for sixty-eight yuan, so I have to be eager to hear the sound first."

Gao Chi decisively chose to immediately leave the command post with his team.

Throughout the journey, the countdown in the upper left corner continued to decrease.

There are no separate side quest countdowns, nor are there any prompts for players to arrive by a certain time; the game offers a very high degree of freedom!

The team ran along a cratered road for more than ten minutes until they arrived at a farm that had been mostly destroyed by bombing.

There were many weapons in the courtyard that had been collected from the retreating troops.

Several Lee-Enfield rifles were leaning against the wall, and grenades and ammunition were stored in wooden crates.

There was also a Bren light machine gun, an anti-tank rifle that looked rather exaggerated, and a Vickers heavy machine gun that required two people to carry.

Further away, an anti-tank gun was being dragged into a bunker by soldiers using ropes.

Gao Chi's eyes lit up immediately.

"Now this is what a war game should be like!"

"There are just too many equipment options!"

There are no level restrictions on different weapons; players can pick them up and use them directly.

However, each type of firearm has different weight, recoil, and operating method. After Thomas picked up the Bren light machine gun, his movement speed decreased significantly, and when shooting while standing, the muzzle shook wildly.

Gao Chi fired half a magazine, but the wooden plank in the distance didn't even get hit.

"Was this gun not calibrated?"

The viewers in the live stream showed no mercy.

[You think this is He Chenguang's gun?]

[They're telling you to intercept armored vehicles, and you're just shooting at the edges? There's not even a training camp to guide you in this game!]

[These aren't new recruits; they're already on the battlefield. What kind of guidance do they need?]

[It's obvious, the streamer doesn't have the blood of a war god.]

Gao Chi, unwilling to accept defeat, switched to a rifle.

This time it was definitely much more stable.

He hid behind a low wall and fired two shots at the wooden barrel in the distance; the second shot finally hit its mark.

The gunshots in the game are muffled and powerful, and the recoil is clearly reflected through the screen shake, making for a very good feel!

Before Gao Chi could continue practicing, the observer in front suddenly blew his whistle.

"The vehicle is approaching!"

"Everyone, get into position!"

The soldiers inside the farm immediately sprang into action. Gao Chi's squad moved behind the right-hand wall, and the mission objective was updated accordingly.

Dust quickly rose in the distance along the road.

Two armored reconnaissance vehicles appeared first, followed by several infantrymen. The British troops in the farm did not open fire immediately; everyone lay down behind cover, waiting for the vehicles to enter the anti-tank gun's firing range.

Gao Chi also held his rifle, staring nervously ahead.

The car is getting closer and closer.

The machine gun on top of the armored vehicle was also slowly rotating.

Just as the first vehicle entered the village, the officer suddenly swung his arm down.

"Fire!"

The anti-tank gun fired a loud bang first.

The shell hit the side of the first armored vehicle, and metal fragments and flames exploded simultaneously.

Immediately afterwards, heavy machine guns and rifles opened fire, and the entire farm was instantly filled with dense gunfire.

Gao Chi also peeked out from behind the wall and fired at the infantrymen following the vehicle.

boom!

The first shot hit the wall by the roadside.

boom!

The second shot went nowhere.

"Don't rush, let me familiarize myself with the trajectory first!"

"Da, da, da, da...!!!"

The bullet finally hit the armored vehicle's steel plate.

"Hahaha! Hit! Good start! You're going to get a good beating from my bullets!"

Gao Chi simply pressed down on his gun, watching as several German infantrymen were swept down into the mud by his casual fire.

[Holy crap! The streamer's aim is amazing! He controlled the gun perfectly! He adapted so quickly!]

[The sound of that gunshot is so incredibly relaxing! Chaoxi Games' sound effects are unbeatable!]

[First Blood! The streamer is awesome! Crush them!]

[The battlefield effects are so realistic! This game was developed in just a few months! ChaoXi, you guys are really efficient! I used to think your development was slow, but now it seems you're progressing incredibly fast!]

Gao Chi re-aimed at a new target and then reloaded.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar shriek suddenly echoed from the sky.

Gao Chi's expression changed instantly.

"Wait a minute."

"Haven't I heard that voice before?"
