“Putting the protagonists of a bunch of different works in the same environment. ”
It’s not like players haven’t seen such games before.
Most of the time, they are created by game companies for their own competitions, occasionally pulling together protagonists from different games for a promotional video.
In a sense, it’s like everyone is celebrating together.
But those are just characters from their own games.
However, trying to bring together protagonists from dozens or even hundreds of different works. all in one Dlace?
I’ve honestly never seen that before.jpg
That is until one smart player thought of something: weren’t there a lot of Qingjin stores opened in the city previously?
Could it be that Cloud Dream bought these IPS not to make new games, but simply because they felt their virtual world was a bit empty, and they wanted to fill it with more content familiar to players?
This idea seems quite reasonable, given that Cloud Dream has always been doing something similar, and the operation team led by Randall has been adding things to the Metropolis non-stop.
So, before long, most netizens accepted this idea.
Even those who originally speculated that Cloud Dream was going to venture into the culture and creativity industry also quickly agreed with this idea.
Mavis, attentively following the exciting events, noticed the netizens’ bizarre ideas in no time. While creating an animation character – the “Crocodile Hero”, she couldn’t help but let out a series of silver-bell-like laughter.
When Lincoln returned from scouting the restaurant, as soon as he entered, he saw Mavis laughing non-stop, and he was a bit puzzled.
However, instead of asking, he brought up another topic: “Mavis, do you want to join the company’s internal racetrack testing later?”
“Ah? Can I?” Mavis asked loudly, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Lincoln nodded, “You can now, but you have to disguise yourself well, don’t give yourself away!”
Before, Lincoln had to hide Mavis very carefully and didn’t dare to let anyone know.
Once exposed, the damage a genuine artificial intelligence could do to the Internet was unimaginable and would likely cause a massive stir.
That could be a wave he just couldn’t bear to face.
At that time, his background and social connections were too pure, and a lame excuse like he had a “top-notch programmer friend” wouldn’t fool anyone, let alone withstand scrutiny.
So, he could only hide Mavis cautiously.
Mavis barely left any traces online; she always had to ask her “guardian” Lincoln for permission before doing anything.
But now, it’s a different story.
Forgetting about the networking and stuff for a moment.
As much attention as he’s getting now, who would dare to investigate him for no reason?
Even if he were exposed, he now has the confidence to resist the tides, although it may be a bit troublesome.
Of course, it’s best not to expose herself if possible, as it could save her some trouble…
“No problem!” Mavis declared, “Mavis is super good at disguising!”
No sooner had her words died away, another Lincoln materialized in front of him.
“Change back!” Lincoln was exasperated, “Don’t change into me!”
“Oh…” Mavis dejectedly changed back, muttering under her breath, “Stingy master…”
“Enough, stop messing around…” Lincoln gently patted Mavis’s pink head, “Just have fun.”
“Yes, yes, yes!” Mavis nodded vigorously.
She skip-hopped over to the side, pulling out a long line of freshly designed doll clothes, and started happily selecting what she would wear for the event. Lincoln didn’t want to bother about coming up with an identity for Mavis; there was no need.
The company welcomes new hires every day, he might not even fully recognize everyone from his own department, let alone other departments. Moreover, when entering the competition map, a bunch of people were running, colliding, or falling in their bulky doll costumes, surely creating chaos.
No one would care about any particular person in there.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the person isn’t like Mavis, short with a pink head – that would be too conspicuous!
By the time Mavis joined the game, she already in her “Big Mavis” form.
Initially, Mavis turned into a curve-hugging tall woman, standing at 1.85 meters. After Lincoln knocked on her head to express his disapproval, Mavis obediently transformed into a black-haired girl standing at 1.6 meters, inconspicuous.
When she appeared a few seconds after Lincoln, just as expected, everyone only took a few glances before they turned their attention back to the race track, ready to start the game.
Though it’s an internal contest intended to test the game, once they stepped on the track, who wouldn’t want to win?
Randall and Little Chun stood together, their mouths agape as they marveled at the eye-popping candy-colored race track and the rich appearance rewards shown on the panel.
“Did they do all this in just a day?” He was struggling to describe his shock, “How is that possible?”
However, a voice resonated in his heart immediately: For Lincoln, it was entirely possible.
When it comes to research on virtual reality technology, Randall might be the most advanced person in the world, aside from Mavis and Lincoln.
For the sake of a brighter future for Little Chun, he never relaxed his research on the technology.
Lincoln also didn’t hold anything back; the development tools used by the employees were the key, a vital key that could unlock the technology of virtual world construction!
Yet, what frightened him was, the deeper Randall researched, the more he found: The construction of the virtual world, whilst appearing distributed, actually had a supreme management authority deep within the system.
This authority seemed impossible to bypass. As long as you used this construction technology, this authority inevitably appeared and was unattainable.
The way of constructing a virtual world itself was hard to completely physically isolate. But as long as it connected to the external internet, this authority would inevitably be taken over by the core authority of the tech origin.
In other words, even if there were many different virtual worlds in the world in the future, the superior authority would still be unified.
And the person who held this core authority could easily appear in any corner of any virtual world, taking over any part of the system!
Even, at the press of a button, they could completely destroy all the virtual worlds at their roots!
Whether it’s the ones they built themselves or those built by others!
Without saying more, Randall understood, this button was most likely in Lincoln’s hands.
The distributed world construction strategy, the core authority that linked across devices and systems, such an incredible approach, rather than being referred to as technology, it’s better to call it magic!
Randall was in awe!
Compared to this technology, making a new game in “just” one day seems like a normal thing?
Standing beside him, Little Chun, didn’t have so many complex emotions.
She excitedly selected a flashy unicorn coat to wear, prancing in place to feel the impact the doll clothes had on her movement ability.
After evaluating, she fixed her gaze on the distant finish line, with a fire of determination ignited in Little Chun’s eyes!
She was going all out!
Standing by her side, Princess Camille Victoria, wearing a cute little red dinosaur coat, was also eager to try!
However, after seeing Lincoln appear, she clumsily walked towards Lincoln in the coat she was not used to.
She had good news to tell Lincoln, but not now.
Now, the Princess is going to play the game!
Such a cute coat, race track, the game’s mechanism; the Princess fell in love the moment she laid her eyes upon them!
This game had replaced “Light Encounter” and became her favorite game!
Princess Camille Victoria, waving her little dinosaur arms, issued a challenge to Lincoln.
Lincoln looked at the Princess and then at Mavis, who was also wearing a dinosaur coat on the other side, but a green little dinosaur one, currently wagging her tail at him. He couldn’t help but laugh.
He put on a pineapple-shaped coat and decisively accepted the challenge!
Accompanied by the sound of fireworks and horns, large numbers for the countdown appeared in the air-
3!
2!
I!
Start!
A group of colorfully diverse rag-doll-like figures surged out and charged onto the track!
