Chapter 1106: Chapter 1016 [Happy April Fool’s Day!]_1 Chapter 1106: Chapter 1016 [Happy April Fool’s Day!]_1 Every ti Cloud Dream releases a new ga, it feels like a festival within the player community.
This atmosphere even overflows from the player circle, triggering quite a stir on the Internet, and even in reality.
In so companies with a relatively young average age, the [Cloud Dream New Ga Release Date] is quite distressing as it almost equates to [Employee Collective Leave Day].
Of course, correspondingly, so companies have already laid out plans, directly implenting a matching off-duty system –
Once the release date of the new Cloud Dream ga is confird, employees can decide independently if they want to swap this day with the nearest rest day.
Even so younger small companies, where the boss is an avid Cloud Dream fan, grant an unconditional day off on the new ga release day.
This kind of system even beca a recruitnt benefit.
Chasing Wind’s company is like this: Those who want to take leave, do so directly, while those who want to work are considered overti and are given extra wages.
...
This ntality isn’t exclusive to Daxia, but mirrors the attitude across various countries overseas.
And all of this is just a small side effect of the virtual world impacting reality.
*
Ordinary players are this way, and professional strears are no exception.
No matter what the previous schedule was, since a new Cloud Dream ga has been released, they would certainly live stream the new ga.
Even before 8 o’clock, looking at the gaming zones across all the major live streaming platforms by 7:30, everyone was chatting and waiting for the release of “Dark Soul”.
What’s even more interesting: the Cloud Dream Live Streaming Platform was never limited to dostic Daxia from the start, now almost all broadcasters from countries around the world have gathered.
And many people will choose to set the clock of the virtual house to match the ti in their own country.
This ans: though they are all live streaming at the sa ti with the sa content, so of them have broad daylight outside the window, while for so others, it’s night.
If you are careful enough, you can even find strears from all 24 ti zones across the globe.
Of course, only Leander would be delighted about this, anxious players waiting for the new ga don’t have the desire to leisurely explore this feature.
— -At least not right now.
Now, everyone is excitedly fixed on the grey [Buy] button on the “Dark Soul” release page, eagerly waiting for it to turn red.
During the final 10 seconds, Yi even started a high-pitched countdown in the live broadcast room –
“10!”
“9!”
“8!”
He couldn’t endure his anticipation and wanted to install it right away.
Under his enthusiastic influence, the live-strear community also started joining in, posting comnts in tandem:
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
“Charge!” Yi clicked frantically on the panel, wanting to hit the [Buy] button as soon as possible.
But after tapping the grayed-out button more than 30 tis in 5 seconds with the fastest hand speed, nothing changed on the screen in front of him.
“What’s up?” Yi was very surprised, insistently clicking the gray button a few more tis, “Is the Cloud Dream server lagging?”
This was also the first reaction of global players.
Despite Cloud Dream never having this issue before, server lag was the most intuitive explanation.
However, after Yi had been clicking madly for a minute with no response, and none of the more than 8 million viewers in the broadcast room reported successful purchase, it was clear the situation couldn’t be explained by simply “server delay”.
A question mark slowly appeared above Yi’s head.
He finally realized that sothing was going wrong.
While opening Spiritual Rhinoceros, he asked his viewers in the broadcast room:
“What’s up?
Does anyone know what’s going on?”
“Has Cloud Dream’s server exploded?”
“Or has Lincoln gone mad?”
…
The huge audience of the broadcast room quickly found the reason for him –
“Go check out the dynamic of Chang’an’s official account!”
“Damn!
It’s April Fool’s Day?”
“Shit, I have to go to work now!”
…
Yi didn’t even need to check the hopage of the official account of “Chang’an”.
When he opened Spiritual Rhinoceros, his own hopage feed was filled with statuses forwarding the “Chang’an” official account’s post, and expressing their sentints with elegant national curses.
The post issued by “Chang’an” official account was pretty simple, only five words –
[Happy April Fool’s Day!]
In comparison, the reposts and comnts from the players were much more colorful:
“April Fool’s Day?
April Fool’s Day?
April Fool’s Day?
April Fool’s Day?!!”
“Damn you!
I even took my annual leave!”
“This is outrageous, I’m glad it’s only 8 o’clock, I still have ti to go to work, I’m off.”
…
“Cloud Dream, you’ve betrayed my trust!”
“Ergency order: [Ziri Art Knife]*3, Delivery address: Cloud Dream Headquarters!”
“This is obviously Lincoln’s bastard doing!
You wait for !
I am coming to your house now!”
“What the hell?!
Are you kidding ?”
“cyka blyat!”
“rde alors!”
…
At first, it was the Daxia players who were voicing various curses, but soon internet users from Arica, xico, United Kingdom, Russia, and France started to voice their criticism against Lincoln and the “Chang’an” project team in the comnt section.
Obviously, their April Fool’s Day wasn’t joyful at all!
The developers were sweating bullets watching the torrent-like public opinion, fearing that their boss might have gone off the rails.
Quentina was speechless about Lincoln’s risky behavior, sighed and returned to the front desk, telling everyone to be ready.
Possibly, they would receive a continuous stream of packages from the sa city an hour later.
These packages might be filled with knives along with offensive letters, there might even be substitutes for cussing at them in person.
Everyone should be prepared ntally.
Then she phoned the property managent and the security of the garden area to be on their guard.
Finding Cheryl, she had her post a status [oh, the boss is skipping work again today], telling players: Lincoln isn’t at the company today, if you want to find Lincoln, go directly to his house, do not co to the company…
Anyway, nobody knows where Lincoln’s house is.
Of course, not everyone is clueless.
Yi knows it.
But at the mont, he was too shocked to notice, entirely unexpected that Cloud Dream would make such a move.
After regaining his composure, he did not heed the strear community’s goading to imdiately contact Lincoln and engage in a verbal fight – since he’s not a fool.
He rely sent Lincoln a series of question marks – After the end of the “tropolitan News,” Lincoln stopped rejecting his ssages.
Lincoln shalessly replied to him: [Surprised?
Did you expect that?]
“Surprise your grandpa!” Yi ranted.
However, he, of course, would not say such words directly to Lincoln.
He just texted Lincoln grudgingly, asking: [So when is “Dark Soul” going to be released?]
Lincoln once again imdiately replied:
[Guess?]
Yi was left speechless, he tossed his cell phone aside and said, “What a waste of my early waking up!
I’m going to sleep, see you in the afternoon, everyone.”
“Goodbye, goodbye.”
After finishing, he truly ended the stream quickly, disappearing from the cara.
As for those players in other ti zones where it’s supposed to be the sleeping hours, they didn’t even bother to comnt; they fell asleep right away.
Ivan Ivanov, who woke up at three in the morning, is one of them.
He turned off the live stream utterly speechless, crawled into his bed and went straight to sleep.
As for Daxia—
Players who asked for a leave wailed about wasting their leave.
At Chasing Wind’s corporation, the HR Manager mass texted the entire staff: [Special holiday cancelled, regular work day today.]
The internet was full of lant.
The “headline” that Lincoln anticipated was undoubtedly achieved—
[Cloud Dream new ga release date was an April Fool’s Day joke!]
[The release date for “Dark Soul” was false, still no confird release date!]
[Unbelievable joke!]
…
Various ga dia, finance dia, gossip dia, and even social dia are forwarding this news, effortlessly turning the [player’s circle] event into a trending gossip that the entire internet is paying attention to.
What Lincoln did generated even more buzz than a regular new ga release.
The only downside is: after this maneuver, the resentnt from the players is quite high…
However, Lincoln didn’t think it was a problem.
Because the phrase [Happy April Fool’s Day] is the actual [April Fool’s Day joke].
And the release of “Dark Soul” is indeed today!
As long as the players get engrossed in the new ga, they probably won’t worry about this resentnt much.
— Probably…
Lincoln sat on a small sofa, chuckling as he watched the players rant hysterically and the seconds ticked by.
Two hours slipped by slowly in this manner.
Then, it was 10 o’clock.
The gray [Purchase] button on the “Dark Soul” release page silently turned red.
Afterward, without any notice from Cloud Dream, the sales data in the backend suddenly started jumping!
