Chapter 222 The Human Alliance's Major Move: Closed Beta Test of "Total War to Annihilate
Chapter 222 The Human Alliance's Major Move: [Total War to Annihilate Demons] Closed Beta (Minor Revisions Completed)
Chen Qingshan sighed, "I think the most important thing is how to unleash a high-level blueprint spell like [Undead Catastrophe]."
Without the undead Scourge as a support, even with Ark's exceptional mental fortitude, he would have already perished in that forest under the combined attack of the previous four.
Instructor Lu Hu coughed lightly and said with some disapproval, "I don't think so!"
Even if another necromancer also has the Undead Scourge blueprint skill, they might not be able to do it as well as Ark.
His command skills and strategic planning demonstrate his enormous potential in leadership.
After all, our Haicheng Military Academy doesn't train ordinary professionals, but outstanding commanders on the battlefield between humans and demons.
To be honest, I've already started thinking about how to further develop Ark's capabilities.
At this moment, Instructor Chen Qingshan carefully looked at the holographic projection sand table of Group 1, which had been turned into a vast expanse of scorched earth by the melee of 10 people, and then looked at the undead chess piece with only tens of thousands of combat values remaining on the sand table, and gently shook his head.
He said hesitantly, "Ark is excellent, that's true."
But to be honest, isn't the Undead Scourge skill a bit against nature?
In sandbox strategy games, this skill can also disrupt the balance of the battlefield.
Instructor Lu Hu raised his hand, stopping Instructor Chen Qingshan from speaking.
"I knew that Ark's use of the Undead Scourge blueprint skill might spark a discussion among you old fogies about morality and ethics."
No problem, we will definitely organize a workshop next, mainly to explore the boundaries of using specific skills in virtual competitions.
Regardless, Ark is undoubtedly the number one in this sandbox strategy game competition.
That's beyond doubt!
Instructors Chen Qingshan and Shen Hongyu nodded silently, secretly planning their next teaching session.
Regardless of what the instructors on stage discussed, the other nine sand table chess competitions offstage continued in full swing.
To be honest, today's sand table chess competition, arranged by Instructor Lu Hu on the spur of the moment, was an unexpected challenge for every seeded student.
This chaotic, unregulated battle is the ultimate test of their command abilities, tactical wisdom, and psychological warfare skills.
The difficulty is so high that it would give any experienced strategist a headache.
Not to mention the new recruits who have only been exposed to military academy training for a few months.
With the first battle coming to a successful conclusion, Fang Zhou, Bai Xiaochun, and the other students did not rush to leave, but instead chose to step aside and observe silently.
As the sun rose higher, the battles of the remaining nine groups unfolded simultaneously.
The morning slipped away quietly in a tense and delicate atmosphere.
Finally, as the midday sun reached its zenith, the dust settled on the ten chaotic battles.
Ten winners emerged from this strategic marathon.
Ark stunned everyone with the [Undead Scourge] blueprint spell, but the other nine winners are equally worthy of respect.
All winners have been determined!
The first-place winner in each group receives 10 contribution points, the last-place winner receives 1 contribution point, and so on for all other participants.
Inside the Hall of Glory, at Instructor Lu Hu's command, ten towering holographic projection sand tables flickered twice before transforming into streaks of light and quietly disappearing into the air.
Instructor Lu Hu turned to face the group of seed trainees in the hall, their faces still warm with lingering memories and excitement.
"Alright, you greenhorns!"
I have carefully recorded the entire process of today's ten sand table chess competitions and uploaded them to our seeded company's database.
In the days to come, whenever and wherever you wish, you can look back, learn from, and reflect upon these experiences.
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall, which had been slightly noisy due to the end of the competition, fell silent instantly.
In the midst of this silence, Instructor Lu Hu suddenly raised his voice.
His gaze was sharp as an eagle's, fixed on several trainees in the crowd.
The first student was a male student who seemed somewhat at a loss.
"Student number three in the second group!"
Do you remember how, in round twenty-seven, your spirit beast cavalry force watched helplessly as your archer force crumbled rapidly under the single charge of the enemy commander, who was only of Gold rank strength?
On the battlefield, any hesitation or indecision is fatal.
Your troops need decisive action, not passive observation!
Then, his finger turned to the other side, to a female student who looked embarrassed.
"Student number six in group eight!"
As a Gold-rank fire mage, you should be a key force on the battlefield.
Why did they do nothing at the crucial moment?
I have emphasized many times that every commander is a high-level professional of the Gold rank.
Your magic should be a weapon to turn the tide of battle, not a decorative item left unused.
Your frontline troops are surrounded, and you have failed to provide timely assistance.
What a blatant dereliction of duty!
Following that, not only instructor Lu Hu, but also instructors Chen Qingshan and Shen Hongyu offered their comments on some trainees whose performance was not so outstanding.
After the instructors finished their comments, Instructor Lu Hu raised his hand, and the Hall of Glory returned to silence.
"This sandbox strategy competition is just the beginning."
"You ten outstanding cadets have been granted early access to the closed beta test of 'Total War: Demon Extermination' by the military academy."
Among the outstanding students, including Fang Zhou, there was a tall, thin young man with a scholarly air about him, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He began, "Instructor Lu, what is the 'Total War to Annihilate Demons'?"
Instructor Lu Hu smiled slightly.
"Good question. 【Total War to Annihilate Demons】is a top-tier technological achievement recently announced by the Human Alliance, an unprecedented sandbox strategy game system."
It's not just a game; it's a virtual battlefield that combines cutting-edge technologies like holographic projection, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics to create a near-realistic combat environment.
He paused, letting the information settle in everyone's minds, before continuing, "In this system, you will no longer be limited by the physical sandbox."
Instead, through a specially designed holographic helmet, one can directly "step into" a three-dimensional, highly realistic world.
Mountains, rivers, cities, forests, and all kinds of landforms will be vividly presented before your eyes.
More importantly, you will personally command various AI-driven combat units, deploy them, and carry out tactical strikes.
It even requires considering various factors such as weather changes, supply line maintenance, and public sentiment, allowing for a comprehensive experience of the complexity and brutality of combat.
"Currently, the system is in a highly confidential internal testing phase."
Only a handful of top military academies in a few countries around the world have been given the opportunity to conduct pilot programs.
Our Haicheng Military Academy, thanks to its excellent teaching quality and the outstanding performance of its students, was fortunate enough to become one of the first participants.
However, it should be noted that such opportunities are extremely rare.
Especially for you first-year students, this is extremely rare.
Therefore, only those trainees who excel in the competition and possess exceptional strategic vision and practical potential can receive this honor.
