Chapter 683: Chapter 650: Customer Service Overwhelmed
Half an hour later, the developments closely matched their ideas.
Players from Liechtenstein cautiously advanced, deploying few scouts, but sending them far.
Without receiving any information, they would rather stay put and defend, never risking an advance.
Even with the advantage in troop numbers, they maintained this steady and cautious mindset, and the result was undoubtedly optimistic –
Their advantage slowly became more apparent.
If this continues, they really do have a chance to win the championship.
However, after another nuclear bomb hit an uninhabited area – this time it was a real uninhabited area, no one died –
Daxia players, following heated discussions and voting, came up with another bold move.
Scout [Moonlit Frost on the Bed] suddenly came out from hiding, swaggering toward the Spanish players.
– Don’t get me wrong, it’s not because he failed to learn properly in elementary school and misremembered “bedside moonlight” –
The real reason is: he is a fan of Frost Wind Club.
Professional players of Frost Wind Club have IDs that mostly include the characters “frost” or “wind”. Staff and fans of the club also like to adopt such names.
The live-in assistant of Frost Wind Club, a cute fresh graduate with only two years of experience, often appeared in the live broadcast rooms of professional players, teaching them to follow a good schedule, eat on time, and wash their hair frequently. Her online ID is [Moon Frost].
With her adorable looks, frequent appearances, and an intriguing mix of youthful cuteness with a motherly tone, she quickly gained immense popularity.
Many players who were not fans of Frost Wind Club liked this girl too.
So, strictly speaking, [Moonlit Frost on the Bed] is indeed a fan of Frost Wind Club, though he is a fan of the live-in assistant rather than the professional players…
Moonlit Frost on the Bed boldly exposed himself in front of hundreds of Spanish players, moved a considerable distance closer, stopped at 150 meters away, and shouted loudly:
“Battle Reports –
Number of factions remaining in the battlefield: 11
Top three surviving troop numbers: Liechtenstein 800, Sweden 700, Romania 650, with a margin of error within 20.
Current position of Liechtenstein: [283-192], special weapons: 1 tank, 5 cannons, 32 heavy machine guns…
Current position of Sweden: [177-65], special weapons: 5 unmanned attack aircraft, 1 armed helicopter, 18 heavy machine guns…
Current position of Romania: [218-93], special weapons: 28 rocket launchers, 14 mortars, 22 heavy machine guns…there may be errors.
Reporting ends!
Next report in 10 minutes!”
After stating the data, Moonlit Frost on the Bed slowly stepped back, away from the Spanish players’ positions.
Though his face appeared calm and serious, he was actually anxious and terrified in his heart, fearing someone would suddenly shoot at him. That would basically mean certain death.
Although he was prepared to die to carry out this task, who would choose to die if they didn’t have to?
Fortunately, his luck was not bad. Whether the Spanish players were looking forward to the information in 10 minutes, or they were uncertain about his intentions, no one shot at him.
Moonlit Frost on the Bed successfully retreated back to his hiding place, disappearing from the sight of the Spanish players.
At the same time, one Daxia player emerged at the periphery of the remaining nine players’ factions on the battlefield.
Everyone’s actions were exactly the same as Moonlit Frost on the Bed’s –
Appear, approach, announce information, and evacuate.
However, not everyone was as smooth as him.
Some players were killed by a burst of gunfire as soon as they emerged from hiding. Some were surrounded before they could finish announcing the information, held at gunpoint and forced to reveal more information while their arm was tightly grabbed.
Not only was information about other factions demanded, but also the intentions of Daxia players with this scheme.
Some even tried to use the “informants” as hostages to fish for more Daxia players, hoping to eliminate more of Daxia’s forces.
This created quite a dilemma for Daxia players’ tactics.
After all, the tactic was devised on the spur of the moment and its imperfections were inevitable.
Fortunately, at this point, there weren’t many factions left, and there was only one “intelligence agent” popping up each time, so these losses were still bearable.
The solution was quickly discussed within the faction channel: tell them that if they take action, there will be no more intelligence next time, and all of their information will be broadcasted in real-time, continuously until the end of the competition, or until they are eliminated.
Of course, for the top three being broadcasted, the experience wasn’t too pleasant.
It’s worth being happy to know that you are ahead.
But if this news has to be shared with all competitors at the same time while also revealing their positions and key weapons, that’s another story!
They all took action, eliminating Daxia’s intelligence agents.
Not because they were angry but because they needed to move immediately and get rid of the eyes of Daxia scouts to avoid the next information exposure.
But that was impossible.
Daxia’s scouts had been active around the participating teams from the start of the competition, and they never acted alone.
There were always 3 to 5 Daxia players lurking around each player’s faction.
Although Super Tomato and the “warship” were gone, someone had already taken over the task of gathering intelligence.
This work had never stopped except for the moment when it was interrupted by the tsunami.
This was also the key confidence of Daxia players in implementing this tactic —
The battlefield was always “transparent” to Daxia players!
Well, there were some oversights at the beginning: they didn’t find Finland’s position, and they couldn’t get close to Annan’s position.
But now, these gaps had been filled:
Finland was wiped out by a nuclear bomb, and Annan accidentally bumped into India, who was retreating, during their relocation. There was a chaotic battle between the two sides, with no winner or loser, and they both retreated.
Now they were being closely watched by Daxia.
…
With Daxia’s actions, nothing else could be said; the information of the top three was fully exposed.
As a matter of course, one by one, factions spontaneously gathered in these three directions.
After all, they had to defeat the strongest first to have a chance of winning.
Whether they decided to “give it a try”, planned to check out the situation, or wanted to fish in troubled waters… they always had to go there first.
And once people gathered together, conflicts became inevitable.
As long as they could fight around the factions with the most people, the tactical goal of Daxia players would be achieved.
The audience from Liechtenstein soon faced a desperate moment —
No less than four teams surrounded them, attacking from four directions simultaneously!
Moonlit Frost on the Bed followed the Spanish team all the way and was now lying in the distance, excitedly watching the scene.
This proved that their tactics were a perfect success in the first step.
The light of the championship, which had been driven away by the tsunami, once again shone on the faces of Daxia players!

Meanwhile, outside the competition venue.
France, Izumo, Ottoman Republic, Germany, Russia, Austro-Hungarian… No, it’s Austria and Hungary…
In short, the players of the countries that had been eliminated due to various absurd reasons had exploded.
They immediately went to Cloud Dream’s official website to call customer service, disregarding the high cost of international calls, dialing indignantly.
But all they heard was an endless “beep— beep— beep” sound.
Because Cloud Dream’s phone customer service had already gone off work.
Out of helplessness, they turned to the “7×24 hours work” labeled online customer service.
This directly led to a long queue for Cloud Dream’s online customer service, with as many as 630,000 people queuing up in just a short period!
Everyone was unhappy with the AI customer service, so they all kept clicking “human customer service,” making the queue even more astonishing!
