Mavis’s “medical techniques” had become increasingly proficient, and to this end she had even managed to customize herself a small, yet professional-looking, white lab coat.

After the surgery was over, Lincoln even had a chat with these meritorious academicians.

Unlike other surgeries, after those were completed, patients usually needed to rest.

However, with this kind of hibernation surgery, all their bodily ailments would disappear completely once it was over, as if they had become entirely new people.

Resting?

While their bodies were now at rest, their minds did not need a break.

As a result, many of them insisted on chatting with Lincoln.

Although Lincoln had never formally entered the Daxia scientific research system, his abilities and achievements had earned the admiration of the older generation.

Thus, the looks they gave him were filled with gratification and expectation.

This attention made Lincoln feel rather uneasy.

Luckily, this conversation didn’t last long.

Very soon, these ten or so elderly academicians left the hospital in high spirits, heading straight to the Science Academy.

The mixed reality transformation of the Science Academy wasn’t likely to be completed anytime soon, but the areas that had been transformed already were sufficient for these academicians to temporarily conduct their activities.

Lincoln sincerely admired this about them.

If it were him, the first thing he would do after the disappearance of all his ailments would inevitably be to thoroughly relax and enjoy the comforts of life.

—The mixed reality transformation of the resort center was simpler than the Science Academy’s, more than a third of it has already been completed, and it was expected that the work would be thorough by the end of the week.

But the first thing these academicians did was to head straight to the Science Academy—they didn’t even return home first!

Actually, Lincoln felt that since these people had spent so long lying on their sickbeds, they’re not really likely to make any significant contributions just yet.

They may still need some time to learn and familiarize themselves with new stuff, and that’s obviously not something that can be achieved overnight.

However, as they left the hospital, it suddenly dawned upon him: For these people, “scientific research” might actually be a lifestyle that allows them to relax.

It was the same reason why, despite amassing enough wealth to retire, he still spent a lot of time in the virtual world, constantly developing new scenarios, new characters, and new games.

Even when he assigned the development of a new game to his team, he couldn’t resist adding various interesting easter eggs into it himself.

This was an exciting thing to do, a lifestyle he chose for himself.

After figuring this out, he also understood why Henry wanted him to integrate the functions of the [Focus Headband] into the hibernation warehouse; to these people, the functionality of a [Focus Headband] was absolutely essential.

When he got home, Lincoln didn’t dawdle and logged into the virtual world once more.

By then, Camille Victoria had also finished her tasks and could not wait to come over and reunite with them.

But the moment the three of them logged into Pandora, they noticed a multitude of players setting fires in the forest.

“????”

Some players were even on the edge of the raging forest fire, risking their lives to set fires while running for their lives.

This sight instantly made question marks pop up above Lincoln’s head.

“I didn’t put out the fire so you guys could experience the terrors of wildfires and learn something about fire prevention.”

“Now not only are you rejecting this lesson, you’re even setting fires wildly.

What the heck is going through your minds????”

After pulling up the data of this mirror world, he immediately discovered:

Amongst this fierce forest fire, more than 30,000 players got themselves killed by merely spectating the spectacle.

At the same time, the scope of this fire had further expanded, merging the originally eight mirrored areas into one and the number of affected players was still rising.

As for these fire-setting lunatics…

Earlier on, the players found out that unlike other areas, the environmental changes on Pandora didn’t have a “rollback” mechanism as they were constructing their bases.

Chopped trees wouldn’t refresh every day; the leftover fire pits would still remain in the same place even after a week; Wild fruits once plucked won’t grow new ones for many days…

Perhaps only the beasts will refresh every day, endlessly respawning.

The authenticity of Pandora’s ecosystem far exceeded other areas, probably second only to the Ecological Protection Zone outside of “Paradise”.

This led to the players getting a bold idea:

Could this wildfire spread across the entire continent, creating a unique [Pandora Scorched Earth World]?

With players, if anyone dares to think, there will be people who dare to act.

Very quickly, someone actually started to make a move, a virtual forum group called [Scorched Earth Plan] welcomed more than 80,000 new members in just half a day.

Among them, at least half of them are still perpetuating the fire in this mirror reality.

After looking at the information, Lincoln was dumbfounded.

It took him a while before he managed to speak, wordlessly:

“Seriously?”

“You all do whatever you want…

He shook his head, pulling Mavis and Camille Victoria away from Pandora, and headed to the [Space Dance Pool].

Lincoln once said that Samuel should facilitate some live streaming platforms, and the storyline of “Gravity” obviously doesn’t provide much room for dancing.

Giving certain anchors privileges- some of which weren’t even serious players, is something that Cloud Dream would never do.

Thus, in the end, the operation team of “Gravity” sought help from the [Sci-fi Game Department], and decided to create the [Space Dance Pool].

This would be a public area, independent of the storyline, composed of a rest area with normal gravity, and a dance pool area with only microgravity.

All players who purchased “Gravity” could come in and dance, while users who didn’t purchase the game would need to wait a month until the area is open to everyone to come and play.

As for the dance competitions hosted by the live streaming platforms, they just need to partition several mirror realities from this dance pool.

After a few days, this dance pool was already built, there were still many employees “testing” the new creation – playfully dancing in the pool when the three of them visited.

Due to the use of Night City and Virtual Chang’an materials, the dance hall was filled with changing lights and lively music.

The visiting staff had also changed into flashy, extravagant clothing.

Randall and Little Chun were also dancing in the crowd, both of their faces filled with smiles, a sharp contrast from their serious work demeanors.

Lincoln also saw Fred and Vincent dancing together in the dance pool.

However, he wasn’t surprised – during the last team building event when the “Chang’an” project team turned into cats and dogs, the Persian cat that slapped Fred was Vincent’s transformation.

The “little dab-hand” Little Princess, who “knows a bit” about dancing, boldly pulled Mavis and Lincoln to play in the dance pool.

Lincoln didn’t know how to dance at all.

He was just guided by the Little Princess to experience the atmosphere of the dance pool.

But Mavis was different.

She happily flew around in the microgravity dance pool, shaking her head and twisting her body as she flew.

Occasionally she would bump into others who were also dancing, improvised interactions made her extremely cheerful.

She even wanted to sign up for the dance competition.

So, Lincoln asked Leander to inquire Star Mirror Live Streaming if Mavis could also sign up – only Cloud Dream Live Streaming among the domestic platforms had not held this dance competition.

Soon, Leander received an affirmative reply.

The only requirement was:

In order to fairly maintain the rules, Mavis must live stream once on Star Mirror before the competition begins to satisfy the registration requirements.

Thus, the next morning at 9:30, a pink-haired loli fishing in the metropolis appeared in the game area of Star Mirror Live Streaming platform, waiting with other anchors for the official release of “Gravity”.
