I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 579 - 577 Esports "Twilight of the Gods

"Twilight of the gods? Nonsense!" Michel scoffed after hanging up the phone, completely disregarding Zhang Menglong's words, dismissing them as a juvenile's joke.

"Come to my office." Michel summoned his assistant to his office.

"Notify the higher-ups, we must keep a close watch on Zhang Menglong's every move, and make sure his assets don't impact our market," Michel ordered.

"Yes!"

"Also, warn all the major domestic video game production companies to not let this Zhang Menglong play his acquisition game. His funds are enough to buy all the game companies in the world. If they unite, we really can't compete with them in terms of development capabilities."

Based on past experience, Michel anticipated the various means Zhang Menglong might employ to sabotage their game, Thunderous Games, but unfortunately, this time Zhang Menglong did not plan to use capital as his method of attack.

"By the way, have you heard of the Twilight of the Gods?" Michel suddenly asked, seemingly on a whim. He remembered Zhang Menglong's expression as he laughed strangely, which made him somewhat uneasy.

"Twilight of the Gods? You mean what happened last year in PUBG?"

"Tell me about it?" Michel's interest piqued.

"It was really just a farce," said Michel's assistant, "It was a battle of cheats."

"Cheats?"

"Yes, actually, that competition was more for entertainment, with 100 cheat developers from all over the world taking part in one game for a showdown, and it was live-streamed worldwide. There were all sorts of cheats like invisibility, wall-hacks, headshots from 800 miles away—every conceivable cheat."

"Such a thing happened?"

"Most of those people were later arrested, it was just eye-catching hype, not worth mentioning. However, it did create a significant impact on PUBG at that time, as the existence of cheats disrupted the game's balance and greatly affected the players' experience."

"I see," Michel was completely indifferent to this matter. Cheats were only a problem for companies with imperfect technology, allowing others to take advantage. He had utter trust in his own game engine and was not afraid of such trivial matters.

...

"How did it go? Any results?" Wang Ling and others couldn't wait to follow up as soon as the call ended.

"Isn't that obvious?" Zhang Menglong said, "If a single phone call could make him listen to me, he probably wouldn't have the guts to do what he did."

"That's true," Wang Ling nodded, "Now, who doesn't know the might of young master Zhang? Stirring up trouble in Huaxia means going against you, right?"

"So, what do you plan to do about this?" Qin Feng also asked. His resources were all in the military, and he was almost powerless in these types of situations. He certainly couldn't just send in a few stealth jets to bomb the headquarters of Thunderous Games, right?

"This is easy to handle," Zhang Menglong already had a plan in mind, "They want to play, don't they? Well, let's play with them to the end!"

"What do you mean, continue playing this game?"

"There's no need, I feel sick just looking at this game now," Zhang Menglong expressed his disgust, "Isn't their behavior just to undermine the fairness of the game? Do you think that in terms of destroying the fairness of the game, our Huaxia players have ever feared anyone?"

"Are you talking about using cheats?" Wang Ling instantly caught on.

Back in the day, there was a game that swept through Huaxia and was a part of many people's childhoods—Adventure Island. Its popularity was staggeringly high among the post-90s generation in Huaxia at the time.

However, the prevalence of cheating software domestically led to a loss in the game experience, with almost every monster map filled with studios farming for Gold Coins. The officials turned a blind eye, doing nothing to address the issue.

Nowadays, the players of Adventure Island have dwindled significantly, with many continuing to play out of nostalgia.

This shows that the damage caused by cheats to a game is absolutely fatal. If one wants to destroy a game, cheats are indeed the best weapon.

"I'm afraid that won't work," Wang Ling said, "Do you think nobody in our country has tried? Many studios have attempted to find exploits in 'Era Dominator' to develop cheats, but so far, no one has succeeded."

Wang Ling continued, "It seems they've added a very powerful plugin to the game engine. Anything that isn't part of the system is treated as a cheat and is subject to an almost indiscriminate ban. Plus, the penalties are severe. Once the cheat system detects an infraction, there's no warning, just a direct account ban for 100 years."

"Our Huaxia players are already having a tough time as it is. If there's a wave of bans, we'll probably be laughingstocks," Qin Feng also said, worrying.

"Don't dismiss my plan so quickly," Zhang Menglong laughed, "Don't forget, my Artificial Intelligence technology crushes the rest of the world. Who cares about a few cheat programs? Even if I get my hands on their core code right now, what's so difficult about altering the map to turn the entire game into our Dragon Continent's domain?"

"Damn, why didn't you say you had this skill earlier?" Wang Ling quickly said, "Hurry up, change their map, change it all to our Huaxia territory, hahaha!"

"Do you think that's interesting?" Zhang Menglong shrugged, "I don't think it's thrilling enough!"

"Then what do you think would make it thrilling?"

"Hehe," Zhang Menglong smiled, "Of course, it's to stage a 'Twilight of the Gods.' Don't you think it would be electrifying if a Cosmic Warship suddenly appeared overhead while all the other countries were still in the Stone and Bronze Ages?"

"Goodness me, nobody can outplay you in cunning!" Wang Ling's mind was already picturing it; just the thought was incredibly thrilling, wasn't it?

"Aren't you guys relying on that few weeks' advantage to develop technology up to the Bronze Age? Aren't you relying on the power of your cavalry and weapons to invade the lands of Dragon Continent?"

"Have you ever imagined the fear of being dominated?"

Not another word, Zhang Menglong immediately opened up his computer and started writing code.

"What to create?" Zhang Menglong began pondering.

"Hmm... let's start with the basics: infinite stamina, Infinite Life, mining speed increased by 100 times, all items drop rate increased by 100 times, one-click kill for all creatures."

"Blueprints for tanks, planes, machine guns, cannons."

"Then the design of a Cosmic Warship, and add the design of a Gundam!"

"How about an Ultraman Transformation Device?"

"A Kamen Rider transformation belt."

"Armor Hero transformation devices."

"Iron Man's armor."

"Then couple that with some genetic engineering technology, emm, Superman, Hulk..."

"Too many conventional weapons, let's get into Cultivation!"

"Strange Fire items, the Great Desolation Imprisoning Heaven Finger manual, Burning Art Cultivation Technique, Martial Soul System..."

Zhang Menglong added everything he could think up into the game, and he almost couldn't stop himself from laughing. This cheat was just too powerful; he could already imagine the look of despair on the faces of the foreign players when they saw these cheaters appear in the game.

"Snap!" In one night, Zhang Menglong finished coding this complete set of cheats and posted it online. Only players from the Dragon Continent region could use it, and thanks to his Artificial Intelligence, it could even conduct real-time online qualification analysis. Any foreign players who snuck into Dragon Continent and tried activating it would be instantly banned!

In other words, only the true warriors of Huaxia could use it!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," Zhang Menglong shook his head, "Let the feast of this frenzied extravaganza begin!"
