Chapter 431: Chapter 258: A Revolutionary Invention (2nd Update)_2
“Look here,” Gao Tianyun handed over a book.
“So many?”
“It’s the index.”
Opening the book, Fang Cheng found it riddled with problems, and these were just the ones identified in the experints. The ones not yet discovered might be even more nurous.
Borrowing the experintal data, Fang Cheng saw that each entry involved a very detailed experintal result, which showed how much effort Boss Gao had put into this epoch-making invention.
Moreover, as it pertained to dreams and virtual reality, it would inevitably create conflicts with many ethical and moral issues. Hence, every step had to be thought out and designed to perfection in order to push this device forward.
Noticing that Fang Cheng was seriously perusing the index, Gao Tianyun felt even more embarrassed, “Mr. Fang, I’m sorry, I got too excited. I should have waited until a more mature stage before showing this to you.”
“It’s alright, it’s already quite impressive,” Fang Cheng said. “Boss Gao, you’re truly a genius.”
“Do I even need to say it!”
Gao Tianyun lifted his head in pride, then sheepishly added, “Actually, I have a bit of a selfish reason for telling you, Mr. Fang. Through our research, we found that environntal factors inside the gaming pod do help players enter a hypnotic state more quickly, and Mr. Fang, you are a master of creating gaming atmosphere. So, could you help modify it a bit, to further our research?”
“I should be able to.”
After all, helping others with a Soul Out of Body experience was sothing he had done before; he had helped his own junior brother enter the Suru Illusion.
However, the Primordial Spirit of a cultivator is resilient and durable, and a more forceful approach doesn’t pose an issue, a tug would do the job just fine.
But for ordinary people, Gao Tianyun’s thod would be necessary.
Hearing Fang Cheng agree, Gao Tianyun breathed a sigh of relief, “With Mr. Fang onboard, I’m sure this machine is going to sell really well. By the way, Mr. Fang, do you think we should na it the Gao-Fang Ga Machine or Fang-Gao Ga Machine?”
“Neither is good.”
“Actually, I think…”
“Neither is good, please be sure to find another na.”
Mysterious Mirror watched this scene, thinking how even Boss Gao’s naming skills were being criticized by his master. It seems Boss Gao really lacked talent in naming.
Before leaving, Fang Cheng casually asked, “If you were to sell it, how much would you price this machine at?”
“I’ve decided to go with the cost price, two million four hundred thousand!”
“…I’ll have Xu Qingling help with drafting a business strategy, Boss Gao, you might want to slow down.”
“What’s wrong with this price? I think it’s very reasonable, very conscientious indeed.”
“If you don’t want to go bankrupt, please reconsider. Also, our studio has ample cash flow, we can invest in you, so please think it over.”
Leaving Mysterious Mirror to continue developnt, and taking a device with him, Fang Cheng went up to the third floor.
Sanmiao, who had been sleeping at the reception desk, had long heard Fang Cheng’s footsteps, then she stretched languidly and, just before Fang Cheng entered, dutifully pressed the door switch, and after Fang Cheng sat down at his workstation, she skillfully jumped over and curled up in Fang Cheng’s embrace.
The prototype of the ga machine was quickly set up.
It was a rather bulky machine, which looked like a coffin on the outside, but with a flip-lid.
Once inside, electrodes would automatically cover the user’s legs up to the back of the head, and hundreds of electrode patches would transmit the body’s signals to the central controller inside, which would then send the processed information back to the user.
These faint signals had little effect when a person was awake, but once asleep, they could simulate a similar environnt, allowing the person to enter the ga world.
After the player got into the gaming pod and closed the lid, the pod would produce a slight vibration, and sounds and preset visuals would play inside, slowly guiding the player into light sleep mode, eventually hypnotizing them and starting the ga.
Understanding the principle, Fang Cheng felt even more impressed by Gao Tianyun.
This device could greatly enhance the gaming experience, and the gas he would make in the future could deliver better sensations, likely making the path to enlightennt easier.
Although many gas were unable to adapt at the initial stage, this was undoubtedly a direction of proving and a very promising developnt trend.
The developnt of gas had already reached a bit of a bottleneck, with new gaplay being essentially imitations and references to previous styles, but this new console should bring about more growth.
Although it currently had many imperfections, the developnt of technology was not an overnight affair. It had to progress bit by bit, and even with genius driving it, it was impossible to make too big a leap at once.
Still, seeing Gao Tianyun reach the level of a Cultivator with the body of an ordinary person filled Fang Cheng with emotion for the wisdom of mortals that shone brightly across millennia.
After contemplating for a while, Fang Cheng started to get down to business.
Looking through the requirents given by Gao Tianyun, Fang Cheng found that after research by the Kirin Institute, they had discovered that certain footage with a slow rhythm and so repeated scenes made it easier for players to enter a light sleep state and continue to drop deeper until they subrged into the corresponding virtual gas.
Suggestive sounds and a warm, safe environnt also hastened this process.
After entering a light sleep state, it was necessary to solidify the prior light sleep state until entering a deeper sleep.
Upon reaching this step, players needed to be guided to realize that they were actually asleep, and to enter a Lucid Dream state.
Only at this step did one formally enter the virtual reality world.
Because the success rate was only 3%, there was a long way to go until the official ga.
Even so, it was enough to astonish people.
After pondering for a while, Fang Cheng’s Primordial Spirit stepped out and stood in front of his own body.
In his arms, Sanmiao lifted its head in surprise, looked at the empty space ahead in confusion, then turned back to look at Fang Cheng’s body, completely bewildered.
anwhile, Fang Cheng’s Primordial Spirit drifted directly towards the sky and then reached out to grab sothing.
The dreams of all humanity were copied by him, dreams that had been dreamt were extracted one by one, billions of dreams interwove, the different parts scrapped, and the similar parts retained, finally synthesizing into one unified dream.
Holding the dream that nearly everyone had experienced in his hand, Fang Cheng realized it was a very ancient dream, one that every person had while still in the fetal state.
This dreamscape was incredibly serene, imnsely relaxing, with the mother’s heartbeat echoing in the ears, providing an unparalleled sense of security.
Deconstructing the content of this dream, Fang Cheng restored the content of the dream as closely as possible using the functions inside the gaming capsule to achieve the ideal effect.
Before dawn broke, Fang Cheng brought out the simulated data and then handed it over to Gao Tianyun.
Upon learning that Fang Cheng had managed to complete it in less than one night, Gao Tianyun’s astonishnt was beyond words.
“Mr. Fang, you really… finished it?”
“Pretty much, I think this feeling should work. By the way, I also placed an experintal space inside it, Boss Gao, you could give it a try,” Fang Cheng replied.
Gao Tianyun looked at Fang Cheng with confusion but still found it sowhat unbelievable.
However, due to his trust in Fang Cheng, he quickly had the data imported into a prototype machine and then personally laid down in it to start the experint.
As soon as Gao Tianyun lay down and closed the capsule door, he found the lights inside dimming slowly.
Wonderful images appeared on the screens inside the capsule, fragnted and disordered, but they felt strangely familiar.
A faint trembling ca from below, and a subtle heartbeat sounded in his ears—slow and strong, as if that was the only sound left in the world, yet it gave him an imnse sense of tranquility.
A warm sensation enveloped him, irresistibly drawing forth drowsiness, and a sweeping tiredness caused Gao Tianyun to close his eyes gradually and sink into a deep slumber.
When he awoke once more, he found himself floating in mid-air.
Looking left and right, he discovered he seed to have beco an eagle, soaring through the sky.
It was an incredibly odd feeling. He knew he was dreaming and that he had beco an eagle, but he just did not want to wake up.
Where dreams and reality t at that mont, Gao Tianyun excitedly sensed everything around him, then flapped his wings forcefully, flying off into the distance.
