Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 454  - 437: Landing on the Island, Great Success!

On the island, Queenie Nishino was completely dumbfounded.

Around a thousand players on the sea were dumbfounded too.

In the live broadcast room, millions of audience members were also dumbfounded.

Even the invisible Lincoln and Mavis, who were observing from the air, widened their eyes.

When the Wind God Wyvern fell, Queenie Nishino's flapping legs passed by not far from them.

Lincoln was also amazed by this unbelievable coincidence.

"I kept the usual weak points like throat, ears, and anus, but..." Lincoln didn't know what to say further, "Can it really happen like this?"

In the live broadcast room, the audience was in chaos:

"Three achievements in a row! Outstanding! Excellent! Epic!"

"Speaking of which, is it possible to tame a pterosaur? Wouldn't that make flying easy?"

"By the way, I always thought that there could never be a second Goddess of Luck, but it seems like I was too hasty!"

"A second Goddess of Luck, ascending to power?!"

"Heresy! I don't accept it! In the virtual world, there can only be one Goddess of Luck! Any who advocate a second goddess are heretics! All will be put to the stake!"

"Get to the point, people! Dinosaur Island! We made it up!!"

"Exactly, what are you waiting for? Get in there!"

"No! She's not live streaming! We can't see..."

...

The audience in the live broadcast room was a mess.

However, in the game, after the initial shock, players in the sea outside Dinosaur Island still tried their best to go ashore.

This wasn't some once-in-a-million-competition event. It wasn't like the first person to succeed meant everyone else would just give up.

Everyone wanted to go ashore!

Soon, everyone noticed a good sign: It seemed that due to the death of the Wind God Wyvern, the attack frequency of the Pterosaur group had significantly decreased.

Many pterosaurs even turned and fled directly.

With the Air Force Death Squad still coming in and distracting the pterosaurs, the threat from the sky had greatly diminished.

Everyone quickly searched for areas without hidden reefs.

Queenie, who had reached the coast, didn't go inland, but turned around and shouted encouragement to everyone at the shore.

For the last stretch, although the overall number of rafts kept decreasing, the players who fell into the water hid in the circle formed by the rafts, greatly reducing the number of deaths.

Just like that, with the "raft cluster" shrinking by one-third of its size, they finally reached shore!

The first player to reach the shore quickly dragged the raft to make more room, without having the time to celebrate.

However, once they left the water, the rafts became quite heavy, and even several people working together found it difficult to drag.

As a result, the "raft cluster" spread out along the coastline, finally forming a narrow strip that covered the coast.

The dense crowd of players left their rafts and officially set foot on the coast of Dinosaur Island.

Before they had time to cheer and celebrate, the grand and noisy music kept playing, and a magnificent light gathered around each person.

All the players who set foot on Dinosaur Island earned an achievement at this moment –

[Dinosaur Island Conquerer]

At the same time, in the revival area of the amusement park, the other players who participated in the war through live broadcasts cheered loudly at this moment!

They all cheered, clapped, stomped, pounded their chests, and slapped shoulders, expressing their excitement at this moment.

Although they didn't reach the island, they all made an effort for it.

It was at this moment that a grand symphonic sound effect suddenly played, with countless lights converging and forming an achievement trophy around each person.

William looked at the light gathering in front of him, stretched out his hands, and held the trophy.

The base of the trophy was engraved with the name of the achievement –

[Your Medal of Honor, Half of Mine]

[Note 1]: [He has half of my Medal of Honor, she also has half of my Medal of Honor! His, his, hers, and hers, all have half of mine! So strictly speaking, I have more Medals of Honor than you!]

[Note 2]: Received a Dinosaur Island Landing Battle Commemorative Medal.

William looked at [Note 1] and immediately had a strong urge to complain.

He materialized the commemorative medal, and the pattern on it vaguely showed the outline of Dinosaur Island, and the pterosaurs in the sky and the rafts on the sea.

This surprised him: "Is Cloud Dream so amazing? They knew in advance that players would make rafts and fight to go ashore? That's way too powerful!!"

The surrounding players and the audience in the live broadcast room also exclaimed at how unbelievable this was:

"Is this the genius's foresight?!"

"You think you're so smart? Sorry, but it's all within expectation!"

"It's hard to imagine what Lincoln felt when he made this commemorative medal."

...

When Lincoln made this medal, his feelings were: "These players are too outrageous."

Of course, he couldn't predict in advance what the players would do. This commemorative medal was made on the spot...

It was made only after it was possible for the players to make a large-scale assault to go ashore.

At the same time, the players who made it to the island also noticed the peculiarities of the [Dinosaur Island Conquerer] achievement trophy.

For players who directly land on the island, the Landing Battle Commemorative Medal would be awarded through the [Dinosaur Island Conquerer] achievement. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

All players who participated in this battle would receive this commemorative medal.

There was no special function, just to help them make a memento, and remember the effort they put into logging into Dinosaur Island on this day.

Super Tomato immediately noticed the tiny Dragon King Whale and several Helicoprions leisurely swimming on the surface of the sea in the miniature Dinosaur Island on his trophy.

He tried to reach out to touch the Dragon King Whale, only to find that he really could touch it!

And then, a small window popped up instantly, displaying a picture of the Dragon King Whale, along with its name, species, time of existence, discovery history, length and weight data, habits, and archeological discoveries and other information.

— This part is thanks to Mavis's merits!

Super Tomato blinked, then looked at the miniature Dinosaur Island on a teammate's trophy side by side.

As a result, there was no Dragon King Whale on it, but rather there was a giant toothed shark, a few spiral-toothed sharks, and even a small Pterosaur flying around.

"No way..." Super Tomato was surprised and immediately had a series of questions—

"So does it mean that all the animals I've ever killed will sync to this model?"

"As long as I kill enough, can this Dinosaur Island model become a truly tiny living Dinosaur Island?!"

"What does it count as? Plowing your own field? Each person gets an island?"

"By the way, how do you kill a 30-meter-tall dinosaur? By trimming its feet?"

"And how many types of dinosaurs are there on this island? How long will it take to collect all of them?"

At this point, Super Tomato felt his liver begin to ache vaguely.

At the same time, the discussion between two players not far away further intensified his mental exhaustion—

"Why are there 8 sharks in your sea, while I only have 4?"

"Because I stabbed 5 to death, chopped 2 to death, and possibly assisted in bleeding out the other one."

"So, this thing is related to the number of kills?"

"What do you think?"

...

"Absurd..."

The only consolation for Super Tomato now is that this thing only serves as a record and a pictorial book.

It is a reward for accomplishing achievements, not a task that must be completed.

If one doesn't have an OCD, collection fetish, or a perfectionist mindset, they can completely ignore it.

With that in mind, Super Tomato checked his other Achievement Trophy.

That's the Achievement Trophy when he participated in killing the Dragon King Whale—

[Giant Beast Slayer·Dragon King Whale]

Along with the automatic system prompt: The [Ancestors' Glory] series of achievements have been activated.

The four words [Ancestors' Glory] were marked with special golden font.

Super Tomato clicked on it puzzledly.

A rectangular box popped up, with two columns inside, left and right, listing strange symbols.

Super Tomato had no idea which ancient civilization's characters those were, as he had never seen them before.

Only the third line from the bottom on the left-hand side column was lit up and had been converted into familiar Chinese characters: [Giant Beast Slayer·Dragon King Whale].

The meaning was obvious now— He needed to hunt down giant fierce beasts to light up these words one by one and complete the ultimate achievement.

The golden special achievement— [Ancestors' Glory].

"Fine." Super Tomato had nothing to say, "Anyway, I can't escape it, so it's about starting a segment with the giant dinosaurs, right?"

After saying this, Super Tomato suddenly thought of something.

"No!"

"Humans are descended from Homo sapiens, who originated between 300,000 and 200,000 years ago, but didn't the dinosaurs go extinct 65 million years ago?"

"Why do we have to regain our ancestors' glory by hunting dinosaurs?"

"As far as I know, human ancestors didn't even see dinosaurs!"

Super Tomato couldn't help but complain one after another.

"Can't everyone live in peace?!"

*

The players on the shore began to realize one by one the special uses of the miniature Dinosaur Island.

But compared to Super Tomato's liver pain, many were eager to try it, eager to delve deep into Dinosaur Island and rampage.

Especially the people of Hu's Hunting Group, because compare to the dinosaurs, what is a brown bear?!

Just then, a rustling sound came from the forest tens of meters away.

Players who heard the sound turned to look and saw a small dinosaur more than two meters long.

Strictly speaking, in comparison to human size, this wouldn't be considered small.

But everyone had just dealt with creatures at least five meters long, so when they suddenly saw something just over two meters, they subconsciously thought it was "small."

A few impatient players immediately picked up their weapons and rushed towards it, intending to open a pictorial book for their Dinosaur Island.

However, they didn't know the dinosaur, nor did they know that the one in front of them was called the Chambered Dragon, and they even knew less about one thing—

The Chambered Dragon is a social dinosaur.

Soon, a larger range of rustling sounds came, bushes shook, smoke and dust rose gradually, and the sound of running approached from afar.

In some places further away, even the trees began to shake, and the branches and leaves rustled.

Now the players were getting a bit restless:

"Do you guys feel that this scene is a bit familiar?"
