Chapter 427: Chapter 427 Gundam Rock

The sound waves raced along the coastline, even pushing back the ocean waves. The invaders were swept up, torn apart by the sound’s vortex, emitting bursts of mournful wails, while players less affected by it kept their mouths shut, lying prone on the ground, looking up at six gigantic figures.

Gundams, standing on the earth.

Yes, Gundams.

Although they were only about ten meters tall, and their outer armor was clearly made of wood, the classic ’V’ antenna design unmistakably identified them.

But these six Gundams, something seemed a bit off?

One had a bass slung over, two had guitars, and another looked as if it was carrying a keyboard in the same way.

If these four seemed relatively normal, the remaining two were truly bizarre.

The one on the left, clearly exhibiting some female characteristics, struck a golden rooster stance with an enormous ancient zither braced against her leg. The other Gundam was even more peculiar; besides a Gundam head, it looked more like a tentacle monster, with various types of mechanical hammer arms striking drums, gongs, cymbals, and other percussion instruments, making one wonder what kind of material made up those large drumheads.

The soul-striking singing came from the main guitar Gundam’s loudspeaker—though not exactly melodious, the singing style combined with music was particularly thrilling, inducing uncontrollable shivers both physical and spiritual.

The sight of these six musical Gundams forming a death metal band on its own delivered a visually overwhelming impact.

"What the hell is this?" The players lying prostrate on the ground thought, but many were pondering another question —

"Where can I get one?"

Well, for players, seeing outrageous equipment in the game wasn’t a problem; the real issue was whether they could get one themselves!

The music continued to vibrate, Yun Yao’s out-of-place ancient zither sound especially weird amid the classic heavy metal rock melodies, but it was this discordance that created two entirely distinct audio streams. It was like two fists striking a target from opposite directions, forming a fantastic combination that made the death metal even more aptly named.

"Snap!"

"Snap!"

"Snap!"

As the singing reached a climax, a series of crisp exploding sounds followed. Unsuitable scenes for children began playing, causing many players without censored modes to feel an urge to vomit.

The invaders’ heads burst open like watermelons, and even some nearby players were accidentally caught in the carnage. Once the coastline was completely covered with red and white debris, the indescribable shocking music finally stopped.

"Hey, actually, don’t we just need to step on these invaders rather than play the instruments to kill them?"

Suddenly, Yun Yao’s slightly puzzled voice emerged from the Ancient Zither Gundam’s loudspeaker, followed by a voice from the lead guitar cockpit —

"Are you kidding? Stepping on humans with a Gundam, that’s just undignified! Play the instruments, kill all enemies, Gundam band, how rock and roll is that!"

"But playing instruments in a Gundam is really difficult; if you’re operating a Gundam, operate it well, if you’re playing rock, play it well. Mixing them together, don’t you think it’s tiring for your fingers?" Yun Yao grumbled unhappily, and the drummer Gundam next to her nodded repeatedly:

"Exactly! This drum set Gundam is too ugly! I’d rather have an ordinary one!"

"However, that’s you guys — a guitar and a bass don’t have that many strings." Liao Yunhuai was bragging to his live-streaming followers, whom he hadn’t seen for over a month, while nonchalantly dropping bassist-appropriate trash talk, completely ignoring the fact that playing the bass was indeed exhausting.

"My keyboard is just for show, the sound comes from the built-in hammers; after all, Master can’t make a real keyboard yet.... But with this technology, making a piano should be no problem."

...

The interactions of the six Gundams could be described as deafening, yet the players standing beneath their feet felt unusually out of place, as if everyone wasn’t quite playing the same game.

"So you’re saying, that Screw Village really exists? And it’s the same as the Big Locust Tree Village?"

The quicker players already had the epiphany and didn’t bother to loot the battlefield, immediately running towards the nearby town.

Seeing a dozen players suddenly running off, the remaining ones who hadn’t died were somewhat dumbfounded. It took them a moment to catch on, not yet realizing what had happened. After all, it wasn’t unheard of to equate Big Locust Tree Village with Screw Village, but wasn’t Big Locust Tree Village supposed to be unfindable? What good would running do?

Why not follow the Gundams!

...

"Haha, there it is, there it is! Just a bit more, a little more!"

Not far away, Feng Xue, who just launched six Gundams, stood on a cliff overlooking the Gundam Rock Band manifesting in front of everyone. He could clearly see the "Identity" that formed the bodies of those six players undergoing a drastic transformation.

It seemed like these little disciples wanted to show off a bit more to vent the frustration they had bottled up during their time isolated in the village. He quickly sought out a player who wanted to learn skills and disappeared from the game world.

...

Back in reality, Feng Xue didn’t rush to fulfill the young player’s wish to learn English. Instead, he immediately found an internet cafe, switched to his phantom-level hardware created using Powers, and began editing the videos from Liao Yunhuai’s live-streaming room using the hacking skills he had acquired in the Cyberpunk World.

With his fast hands and powerful equipment, a series of short videos were quickly produced, including a Gundam heavy metal rock single PV, Gundam Rock Meme, daily life in Screw Village, and various other previously collected raw clips, which he continuously released on major social media platforms using different accounts.

Of course, there was a reason why the players at Big Locust Tree Village suddenly fell silent — summed up, it was about engaging them emotionally and enticing them with benefits, and of course, a bit of power shock.

Well, Feng Xue admitted, the main reason was actually the Power—

It must be said that the "Hard to Understand" Power was incredibly strong. Once it successfully targeted someone, it would have a wide-ranging effect. After Mei Wenhua made a post that went viral, he used that post as his target, executed the Hard to Understand, and as a result, over two hundred players from Big Locust Tree Village were completely clueless about how to spread the word about "tinkering with screws."

At the same time, he also applied the "Hermit" Power to Big Locust Tree Village itself, causing the entire village to fall into an undetectable, nearly invisible state.

As such, the players couldn’t leave, couldn’t leak any information, didn’t have any monsters to fight, and with Feng Xue acting as an NPC promising Gundam manufacturing qualifications and the monopoly of Gundam benefits, they naturally kept quiet.

And now.

All powers were revoked. Apart from the impact made by Feng Xue, those beta-test players from Big Locust Tree Village also began frantically sharing the secrets they had gathered over the days.

And all these leaks would ultimately establish one fact—

The Gundam Band was set to become a massive hit!
