Chapter 831: Chapter 790: Embarking on the Journey!
“Giant-sized, flesh and blood pollution…” Danny fell into thought, “simultaneously launching five smaller pollution hydrogen bombs, blowing it to ashes?”
“??” Danny’s answer stunned Lincoln, “Are you guys in aerospace this violent?”
“It’s not allowed?”
“Of course not! It must dock at the port after coming out of the sea. Directly throwing hydrogen bombs, will anyone survive?”
“Well…if it’s a virtual world, killing hundreds of thousands of players shouldn’t be a big deal, right?”
“…” Lincoln was speechless.
...
So this bushy-browed guy turned out to be a chaotic evil one!
“If it’s not allowed, try using carbon nanotube cables to tie it up?” Seeing Lincoln not speaking, Danny had no choice but to continue brainstorming.
“Or use an extrely large prison to sohow imprison it?”
“Biological weapons?”
“Incinerate directly in a lava pool?”
…
Danny wracked his brain, offering all sorts of outrageous ideas, but he never thought of the obscure concept of “chs”.
It was not his fault since there was no concept of chs in this world before Lincoln explained them. Naturally, there were no such imaginings as “giant chs VS giant monsters”.
Lincoln let him guess without revealing the answer.
It wasn’t until they walked into a small reading room that Danny stopped brainstorming and patted the bookshelf to tell Lincoln: you have to read and rember all these manuals, and because of the urgent ti, you have no more than a week.
Lincoln noticed that there was a shelf in the corner of the reading room, and on it were “focus headbands”.
Danny gave him a brief tour and then led them out of the reading room.
—It wasn’t ti to start learning yet; they had to go through all the training programs first, show Lincoln the schedule, adjust it according to Lincoln’s actual situation, and then start the normal training.
Next, Danny took them one by one:
“This is where theoretical knowledge is learned, and a teacher will teach you one-on-one.”
“This is a high-speed centrifuge that can help you adapt to the overload caused by acceleration, but you don’t need to reach 8G load, just 6G is enough to pass.”
“This is the underwater microgravity training hall, where you will have to wear a full spacesuit and dive 10 ters underwater to perform tasks.”
“For the large aircraft simulation zero-gravity training, you need to wait for the schedule and proceed with other astronauts.”
“The doctor has seen your physical examination report on muscle strength and cardiorespiratory endurance training and says that you have t the standards, so there is no need for additional training. Just make sure you maintain it before the rocket launch.”
— Lincoln had to have a physical examination every month. If he was lazy and didn’t want to do it, he would be nagged endlessly by Yue Pengju. He would even pull in Jordan, the invincible talkative person, to nag together until Lincoln went for a dical check-up.
“We will also arrange a plateau trip for you to acclimate in advance.”
“This is the simulation room. Simulation training used to be very troubleso in the past, but thanks to your virtual reality technology, simulation training can now be carried out in the virtual world, making it easier and more effective.”
…
“If you were just hitching a ride, you wouldn’t need to go through all these exercises, but since you’re going to do a spacewalk, you have to train even harder.”
After explaining, Danny couldn’t help but give a thumbs up to Lincoln: “To go to such lengths for ga research, I must say, Boss Lin — aweso!”
Lincoln didn’t modestly ask, “So the training I’m participating in now is not all the projects?”
“Of course not.” Danny shook his head. “Professional astronauts, of course, have to be more comprehensive and harder.”
“Can you do a favor and let try them all?” Lincoln asked.
“Huh?” Danny was taken aback, “Do you really want to be a professional astronaut? If so, 20 days is not enough.”
“No, no, no.” Lincoln shook his head and explained, “The training plan does not need to be changed; I just want to experience them all, which would be preparation for the space ga you want.”
“Then let ask later?”
“Please! The space ga will be released in the future, and there will be a special thanks to you in the production list.”
“Do I have a share?” Danny perked up.
“Yes! I’ll list you separately.”
“What are you waiting for? Let’s go! Let’s find the director now!”
Danny imdiately dragged Lincoln to the director’s office.
…
15 minutes later, Lincoln’s request was easily fulfilled.
The only price was that he had to find ti on his own to experience these training programs outside of the set training schedule.
*
From that point on, Lincoln’s daily routine beca pretty standard.
He went to work at the company in the mornings and enjoyed Cheryl serving him tea and water while dressed in a maid outfit—Lincoln failed to trick her into trying a bunny girl costu.
In the afternoons, he’d spend all his ti at the Astronaut Training Center, strictly following the training schedule.
After returning ho in the evenings, he could not rest and had to continue studying Consciousness Chip technology with Mavis.
Ti went on like this, day by day.
anwhile, sales of “Iron Fist” were soaring, gradually gaining popularity.
Ga dia had nothing but praise for Wild Island’s innovation from various perspectives like gaplay, creative design, and social impact.
“Iron Fist” also received high ratings among player groups.
Over half of the 2 million VR devices Tiffany ntioned that hadn’t been modified were successfully activated, and the second round of VR equipnt modifications began.
The activities and competitions ntioned in the publicity were also steadily progressing.
There was also an amusing incident in the middle of all this—
Wild Island really tried to uphold their commitnt to players and cheekily contacted Cloud Dream to inquire if Lincoln was interested in participating in the Celebrity Performance Matches, because he didn’t clearly object and his voting tally was astonishing.
Samuel replied, “Our boss has already participated.”
And then declined the invitation.
Wild Island was baffled.
Not until the next day, when Cheryl cut a video of Lincoln playing “Iron Fist” at the company and posted it on the “Cloud Dream Office Daily” account did Wild Island finally understand what had happened.
Players also found out so additional information: so Boss Lin’s XP is a bunny girl!
Amidst his busy schedule, Lincoln didn’t know that just because of his casual joke about Cheryl, he’d taken on a strange label.
Mavis didn’t tell him either, she just switched his little dinosaur pajamas at bedti for little rabbit pajamas.
Lincoln just thought it was cute and didn’t realize anything was amiss…
…
On Friday, Wild Island struck while the iron was hot and announced three new ga projects:
A running-thed ga—”Escape from the Ruins”!
A tennis-thed ga—”Grand Slam”!
A bowling-thed ga—”Bowling Paradise”!
All three projects launched simultaneously, once again generating heated industry debates.
But Lincoln was no longer paying attention.
After experiencing “Iron Fist,” he had a clear judgnt of the path Wild Island is taking and the gains and losses of it—
Wild Island lowered the threshold for VR gas and greatly increased players’ motivation for physical exercise by leveraging the fun of gaming.
These are the advantages.
But the cost is: a complete abandonnt of the 360-degree panoramic view.
The Omnidirectional Treadmill has been “castrated” in three directions, reducing free 360-degree turning to a purely frontal view.
Even the newly developed gas are like this, all aid at frontal exercises.
—It’s inevitable since they got rid of the cumberso helt, players need to keep looking at the display in front of them during the ga.
But this also ans a significant decrease in imrsion and might even be outperford by the VR version of “The Last Mont”.
Of course, at the expense of this, they’ve indeed found their own path and can live quite comfortably.
—Until “Eight Sides” fully enters the gaming industry.
And that day will inevitably co.
Although Cloud Dream’s current focus is on the virtual world, Lincoln hasn’t given up on the real one.
Especially as he spends more and more effort on the Consciousness Chip, he becos increasingly inclined to secretly use the technology to completely remove the capacity limit of the virtual world in one fell swoop.
For this reason, he feels an even stronger need to provide all users, and even himself, with a fascinating and attractive real world!
That way, players can have a ntal anchor in reality and not invest all their ntal world into the virtual one.
By then, Cloud Dream, with one foot in the virtual world and the other in reality, will be walking on two legs—fast and steady.
So for the real-world ga category, “Pokémon” will be just the beginning, not the end.
With such a ntality in play, Lincoln’s emphasis on “Pokémon” has significantly increased.
On Sunday, his protection period for “Iron Fist” officially ended— and “Pokémon” was finally ready to embark on its journey!
