Chapter 1103: Chapter 1013 [Cyber Chang’an]!_1 Chapter 1103: Chapter 1013 [Cyber Chang’an]!_1 The appearance of Randall and Fred took Lincoln entirely by surprise.
Worried about these two trying to pull one over on him, he had hurried to the company early in the morning to avoid the crowds.
But what he didn’t expect was that these two had no such intentions at all!
It wasn’t until 8:40 that Fred showed up at the company’s entrance.
By then, the front gates of Cloud Dream Company were bustling with activity.
—With the boss unexpectedly staking out the place, who wouldn’t be curious about what’s going on?
Before the start of work, everyone was intentionally or unintentionally focused on the entrance.
The sight of Fred surprised everyone there, including Lincoln—
Perhaps in an attempt to make his skirt less conspicuous and eye-catching, not only had he worn the Scottish plaid skirt Lincoln had given him, but also matching cotton socks, black shoes, a plaid shawl, a beret….
—In fact, Fred had put together an entire Scottish outfit from head to toe, incorporating anything he could find!
He even carried a huge Scottish bagpipe!
Giving the impression that he was ready to play and dance at any moment.
Despite the standard attire of the passing workers, his outfit was still incredibly attention-grabbing, turning heads immediately.
But with such a complete set of clothing, no one would think he’s a weirdo anymore.

They would just assume he was going to a cosplay show or about to perform onstage.
Lincoln was left speechless.
Mavis and Vincent’s eyes sparkled.
Cheryl pulled out her mobile phone and started fervently snapping pictures.
Fred, looking at Lincoln, proudly played a note on his bagpipe, and then strolled into the company and sat down next to Lincoln.
“Well done, Fred!
I thought you would just cross-dress!”
Fred stiffened for moment, “Well…
I did consider….”
He glanced at Vincent but didn’t finish his sentence.
Lincoln nodded, understanding, then asked curiously, “Do you know how to play bagpipes?”
“Want me to play a tune?” Fred countered.
“Go for it,” Lincoln was genuinely interested.
With that, Fred adjusted his position, took a deep breath, placed the pipe in his mouth, and blew with all his might!
“Beep!!!
Beep-beep-beep-beep ….”
The loud noise suddenly shattered the silence next to Lincoln’s ear!
He quickly pushed the pipe away, stopping Fred’s insanity.
“Do you call that playing the bagpipes?!”
Fred, sounding innocent, retorted, “Did I ever claim to be able to play?”
Upon reflection, Lincoln accepted that Fred had never claimed to be able to play the bagpipes.
He had only asked if Lincoln wanted to hear him play a tune….
This was absurd!
After waiting another 5 minutes, Randall arrived.
The thing the surprised Lincoln was that Little Chun had also come to work with them today, and was wearing a plaid skirt as well!
“Well guys, one is cosplaying, and the other has gone for a couple’s outfit?”
As soon as Lincoln finished his sentence, over thirty members of the “Chang’an” development team appeared from behind Randall and Little Chun.
They quickly caught up with them and joined them at the entrance of the company.
And they—were all wearing Scottish plaid skirts!
Regardless of gender!
This move left Lincoln perplexed, “What’s this?
Scottish Culture Day?”
He was unusually speechless.
But he did indeed have to admit: this move was undeniably clever.
If one man wears a skirt, he might become a laughingstock.
But if a group of men wears skirts, it’s just team bonding and having fun.
Randall and Fred, each in their own unique way, had successfully weaseled their way out of their bet.
The company entrance was instantly full of laughter and jokes.
Fred even joined the crowd playing his bagpipes, screeching out a cacophony of out-of-tune notes to their amusement.
Cheryl was snapping away with her camera, that she had grabbed back from Lincoln, at the cheerful crowd.
…
…
After a while, the crowd gradually dispersed from the company entrance.
Everyone returned to their posts to start their day’s work.
Lincoln, somewhat disinterested, also logged into the virtual world.
Though one mystery remained—who wore underwear and who didn’t?
But this was really hard to investigate thoroughly.
It’s not like something hidden in their underwear, which would vibrate at the press of a switch, revealing something off in their expressions—there’s no way their underwear would betray anything.

No one would go around lifting skirts either…
Lincoln sighed, first going to the “A Quiet Place” development team to check progress.
The result was, of course, extraordinarily impressive!
Ever since Lincoln implemented the intelligent assistant module in the development tools, Cloud Dream’s productivity soared once again.
He was even a little worried: what if “Gravity” hadn’t been made public yet, and “A Quiet Place” was finished first…
After all, it was just a simple horror short story with straightforward gameplay and simple execution.
It couldn’t stump a development team of the likes of “Pacific Rim”, even if it was only half of them.
However, this development team was now focused on adding more to the game.
For example, today, as soon as Jason saw Lincoln, he asked, “Can we add an alien monster that teleports and twists peoples’ necks as soon as they’re seen, forcing everyone to live with their eyes closed?”
“So, collective blindness, right?” Lincoln’s first response was to think that Jason had lost his mind.
Even suspecting that he had been inspired by the difficulty level of “Dark Soul” and wanted to see who could torment the players more.
But Lincoln soon found the idea to be—pretty interesting?
He even had an idea for a variant of this alien monster—
For example, the monster would freeze if the player kept staring at it, but would pounce and twist the player’s neck as soon as they blinked!
So he nodded and said, “If you’re so keen on adding it, you can do so as an Easter egg or as a small branch of gameplay.
But remember, don’t interfere with the main storyline and disrupt the integrity of the story.”
Jason was first pleased, then a little worried.
He started thinking hard about how to appropriately incorporate this gameplay into the game.
Lincoln, on the other hand, moved onto the Sci-fi Game Department.
In recent months, the [Sci-fi Game Department] has been acting like a peripheral department.
Their presence was only felt when they were helping to test new games from other departments.
After all, their department had the most flexible schedule and no tasks that had to be completed on time.
Over time, many people even forgot that the Sci-fi Game Department existed at Cloud Dream.
But in reality, the [Sci-fi Game Department] had always been at work.
Not helping test new games or working on “Gravity” for Lincoln, but on other serious tasks.
They were also building a city!
Unlike any other city in the virtual world, it was more futuristic than Virtual Hong Kong in “Pacific Rim” and darker than Night City in “Speed Chase”.
A city full of futuristic elements but headed down a different path.
This city was one of the space-time fragments within the Multidimensional Spacetime Tunnel.
And today, a player finally caught a glimpse of this city—
Fried Rice Immortal Stanley, whose back was wrapped tightly in “Reactive Armor”, jumped into this world filled with dense fog and neon lights through a time-space fragment.
The defense-type autonomous robots immediately noticed this intruder who had appeared by their side.
Lasers scanned the intruder’s entire body in an instant.
Upon identifying him as an [Unrecorded Personnel Carrying Dangerous Weapons], they raised their guns and prepared to fire!
Stanley, who had already experienced this a few times, instantly turned around and used the reactive armor on his back to welcome the attack from these brutal robots.
Reactive armor is typically used on tanks.
Of course, Stanley couldn’t have truly transformed the combat armor for mech operation into reactive armor.
But if he didn’t care about his life, he could craft a makeshift version by hand.
Like now, Stanley had steel plates on both his front and back, and on the back plate, there were two wide-sword landmines attached.
On the landmines were four big handwritten words—
[This Side Towards Enemy]!
The next moment, the bullet hit.
“Boom!”
A powerful explosion happened near the robot patrol team.
The wild explosion instantly shattered the nearest autonomous robots, knocking down many in the outer circle with the shockwave.
Even with steel plates attached to his chest and back, Stanley was fiercely thrown onto the damp, filthy road by the violent impact.
A mouthful of blood was instantaneously vomited out, staining the ground red.
He felt like his internal organs were in pieces!
But he stubbornly struggled to stand, crawled a few steps away, picked up the robots’ guns, fired a hail of bullets to kill a few relatively intact robots, and then dragged himself out of the dark alley and onto the main road.
In his sight, there were more robots rapidly rushing over and a swarm of armed drones buzzing in the sky.
In the dense fog were provocative neon billboard ads.
Higher up, on the top of the buildings, there were four worn-out words that were still faintly flickering—
[Chang’an Heavy Industries]!
At the same time, Lincoln also arrived at this new city built by the [Sci-fi Game Department].
He arrived at—
[Cyber Chang’an]!
