Chapter 50: Kill Steal
As the hours of battle passed, many players became tired and had to stop fighting, while players who had just logged in took their place.
During the battle the number of novice players playing started to grow even faster.
[Minecraft]
[7,900,000 Games Sold - $158,000,000]
Alex knew that Minecraft at this point had already gotten out of control, even though the government of every country in the world said that players' minds would be controlled when they played Minecraft, still millions of people would buy the game.
Not because people weren't afraid anymore, but because at that point people's friends were already playing Minecraft, and seeing their friend having fun in this innovative game while they were just watching was something that made people very frustrated.
So to not just watch friends play, people started buying Minecraft to play too, so a snowball was emerging, to the point that even Alex who had estimated Minecraft sales to be 10 million by the end of the war was still a conservative estimate.
During the battle, Notch and Herobrine appeared in the sky and fought several times. Because of the golden apple, Notch managed to recover, but Herobrine was even stronger than him, so in most battles Notch lost.
With players surviving, Herobrine began using increasingly powerful monsters, to the point where even the Whiter Boss was released.
Players had never seen this three-headed skeleton before. They had already seen that the White Skeleton in the Nether dropped its head, but they didn't know that you could make a monster like that with three heads.
Many players even wanted to go back to SinglePlayer mode to test this out and see if they could create this monster too, but seeing that the battle was getting even more difficult now that this Boss came along, players gave up on that idea and took bows to shoot this monster. .
The Whiter Boss was throwing exploding heads at players, which initially killed a lot of people, but as time went on, players who were always very adaptable were able to deal with it and kill the Whiter Boss.
Unfortunately, when White died, Herobrine was furious and released the two Ender Dragons that were flying over the city.
Seeing the two dragons descending from the high heavens to attack them, players became desperate, especially those players who have never fought the Ender Dragon.
Seeing those dragons flying in the city and destroying all the blocks they passed, the players became more and more desperate.
The players' command line started to get chaotic and everything was falling apart.
Until players with the Ender Dragon cape who were once commanding the army joined the battle.
Both Team 01, which is the X-Men team, Ned and Petter, as well as Shuri and the Milaje ran towards the dragons and started attacking the monsters while leading the players to the front lines.
On the other hand, two players were on the roof of a tall building in Hypixel.
[Natalia] and [Hawk].
Or better known as Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton, two SHIELD agents.
On direct orders from Nick Fury, the two were ordered to get this Golden Apple at all costs, so despite working with the players, Clint and Natasha had prepared a plan to deal with the dragons.
They knew they couldn't handle the weaker monsters with just the two of them, so they decided that they would try to take the last shot to kill the two dragons.
While Natasha would protect Clint, he would be focused on shooting arrows at the dragons to get the kill.
This was a strategy they saw on the internet. As this was their first time doing any mission related to games, the two decided to search the internet for strategies from other games and see which would be the most viable for them to use.
On the internet it always said that the person who gave the last attack on the Boss could receive much more reward than the other players.
And since Herobrine was like a God in this world, Clint and Natasha disregarded him as a Boss and focused their attention on the dragons that had been flying over Hypixel since yesterday.
"The life of the first dragon is dropping." Clint said as he pulled the arrow from his bow.
Natasha, on the other hand, was battling the fireballs the Ghasts were attacking them with a sword.
As they were the players who were at the highest place in the Hypixel, the attention of the Ghasts who were monsters that flew at high altitudes was completely focused on them.
Natasha didn't answer Clint and continued attacking the fireballs with her sword, very focused.
If she missed the timing of the fireball counterattack, it would explode and send the two of them flying downward. Even if they didn't die from the explosion, they would likely die from the fall damage since they didn't have a bucket of water to do MLG.
But Clint didn't need an answer from Natasha, the two already knew each other so well that he knew her silence was confirmation of the trust she had in him.
Since archery in Minecraft was even easier than in real life, Clint calculated the amount of arrows in the air and the damage those arrows would do to the Ender Dragon and finally fired.
Swoosh
The Ender Dragon's health was dropping fast because of the amount of arrows from the players, but as a Herobrine monster, the Ender Dragon's health was several times higher than the life of an ordinary Ender Dragon.
But still, because of the constant rain of arrows all the time, the monster finally died.
Players were excited about this and focused their attack on the remaining dragon.
Millions of players had already died to these dragons, but no one gave up, everyone wanted the Golden Apple.
After a few minutes of attacking, the Dragon's health was finally at a critical level.
Clint once again shot an arrow after much calculation and watched as his arrow killed the second dragon.
After killing the dragons, players with bows pointed their arrows at Herobrine and started shooting.
Herobrine saw that his most powerful monsters had died and he screamed in anger.
"Filthy bugs, don't think you've won this battle, because it's not over!" Herobrine screamed before running away and disappearing in front of everyone.
Players were shocked by this.
"We won?"
They started to wonder.
Until Notch flew downtown and screamed.
"We won!"
