Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 1189: Chapter 1083: Take a Step Back, the More You Think About It, the More Angry You Get!

_1 Chapter 1189: Chapter 1083: Take a Step Back, the More You Think About It, the More Angry You Get!

_1 It took a while, but Chasing Wind finally mumbled shakily,

“Motherfucker, am I not going to be able to return?”

He lifted his head, looking at the giant Earth, genuinely a bit panicked.

Not just him, the people in his live streaming room were also in a panic.

After the imitation Chasing Wind died, the live broadcast lens still followed the imposter to the Sky Plane.

“It’s too damn scary,” said the imposter, “I need to finish the stream for now, see you all around.”

After he said this, the live broadcast signal was disconnected, and the live-streaming room went dark as a result.

But the audiences didn’t leave, they were discussing in a chaotic panic:

“F*ck, did the anchor get stuck in the virtual world and not come out?”

“There still isn’t any panel assistance.

Will he die when the oxygen runs out?”

“Did anyone call the police?”

“Log off first, log off first!!”

…

Meanwhile, Lincoln also received a phone call.

Leaving aside the private messages from Yi, Victoria, Super Tomato, Samuel’s call also came.

She was even more panicked than Chasing Wind!

If a virtual world actually has this outrageous BUG of “NPCs replacing players”, it will cause a massive problem!

Lincoln didn’t answer the call, because the black screen in Chasing Wind’s live streaming room didn’t last very long.

Before the panic could spread, the live streaming room lit up again, aiming at the only figure on the moon.

Obviously, that is Chasing Wind, who was left on the moon.

The live broadcasting room’s authority was not handed back to Chasing Wind, but Lincoln sent a conspicuous message [hahaha] in the live streaming room.

Seeing his message, the previously panicked viewers, immediately calmed down:

“Lincoln?!

How can you still laugh about it?

Your game has a serious BUG!”

“BUG, my ass, look at the way he’s gloating, I suspect he did it on purpose!”

“Right, Cloud Dream has billions of users, and the system panel is the core content.

If there’s a BUG, it would appear way sooner.

In case of an unexpected hardware issue, the player will be forcibly awakened.

This stuff all has precedents!

But, looking at Chasing Wind’s situation, it’s more like he got screwed over by Lincoln!””

…

Lincoln chuckled, sending another conspicuous message:

“Isn’t this the Easter egg you all wanted?

I worked overtime to get it out, do you like it?”

After sending this post, Lincoln quickly withdrew.

Then —— He comes back with a small account to watch the ongoing show.

Under the lens, Chasing Wind’s performance was still decent ——

He was sprawled on the vast lunar surface, immobile like a frozen statue.

Time passed minute by minute, but he just looked blankly at the distant Earth, appearing utterly disinterested.

Not until 10 minutes later, the dense barrage of comments in the live broadcast room suddenly reappeared at his peripheral vision!

“Huh?!!” Chasing Wind’s eyes widened abruptly, “I am back?!”

“The panel!!”

Without any delay, the familiar panel appeared in front of his eyes instantly.

“Exit game!”

The stream of light re-emerged.

When they reconvened, Chasing Wind had already arrived at his home in the Metropolis.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, he let out a huge sigh of relief!

To be honest, if he had lost the panel in the Metropolis instead of on the moon, he would not have been so panicked and desperate.

οѵǤᴑ.сο

In today’s public world, Metropolis, Night City, Chang’an, Luoyang, Virtual Xiajing, Virtual Berlin, Virtual Hong Kong, Virtual Paris, Virtual Rome…

Along with the vast wilderness, all connected into one piece, the various prosperity and enjoyment, in no way lesser than reality.

For users from relatively undeveloped countries outside of developed countries, the virtual world is even more dreamlike.

Because only in dreams, they dare to imagine that their country can be so prosperous and developed.

Many people truly can’t wait to leave reality and live in the virtual world forever.

But not Chasing Wind.

He only paused for less than two seconds before he yelled out loud again: “Log out!”

The live broadcast signal was completely cut off this time.

Chasing Wind successfully returned to reality.

He left his ‘Pacific Rim’ limited edition game cabin, quickly stepping towards the window to open the curtains abruptly.

Looking at the city night scene glittering with neon lights outside the window, his wildly beating heart finally began to slowly quiet down.

After chugging three large glasses of water, he finally took out his mobile phone, intending to ask the Cloud Dream customer service what the hell kind of problem he had encountered.

However, before he could make the call, the employee assisting him with the game called first.

Five minutes later, Chasing Wind finally understood the whole sequence of events.

And then he was completely gobsmacked.

He angrily opened Spiritual Rhinoceros, found that popular post complaining about how the moon is bare and has nothing, clicked on [Share and Comment] ——

[Did you f*cking enjoy yourselves and then let me fall into this trap?]

Chasing Wind was so angry his nostrils were smoking.

But after some hesitation, he deleted the sentence.

It was a bit too aggressive.

He was a businessman and a host; he believed in harmony brings wealth.

[All of you who liked this, mark my words, whoever doesn’t go to the moon is my grandson!]

He angrily typed out the second comment, then shook his head and deleted it.

It was still too aggressive.

But after editing and deleting twice in a row, he became even more pissed.

So——

[F*ck your uncle!]

Six short words, truly heartfelt.

Once he was done sharing, he closed the app, switched to his live streaming group chat room——

“I’m a bit traumatized, I don’t want to log into the virtual world for now, I’m going to stop streaming for three days.”

The weird group friends immediately kicked up a fuss, loads of laughing voice messages and haha emojis flooded the chat.

But the most outrageous thing was someone who popped up and asked:

“Is the limited-edition gaming cabin for sale?”

Chasing Wind was so mad he threw his phone on the spot.

…

…

“Hahaha, I’m satisfied, time for sleep!”

In stark contrast to Chasing Wind, Lincoln’s restless symptoms were magically cured.

He felt completely relaxed and went to bed in a cheerful mood.

The disappearance of Chasing Wind and Lincoln did not affect the rapid proliferation of this issue’s popularity.

And the impact of this incident was peculiar——exactly the opposite of what Samuel feared.

Those gamers who were worried about “the emergence of a severe BUG in the virtual world that prevented users from logging out” made up a tiny minority, only briefly surfacing when the event just started.

Afterwards, many bizarre ideas like this emerged ——

“Someone quickly make a MOD!

Imprison a hundred people, confiscate their panels, randomly throw them onto a small island to fight and kill each other.

Whoever survives last gets the panel back, the rest of the losers can procreate on the island!”

“Actually, since the game cabin was created, shouldn’t Cloud Dream have the ability to let players stay in the virtual world for long periods of time?

When can we stay online for one or two months?”

“@Boss Lin, my brother in the same dorm was diagnosed with a terminal illness, he’s incurable.

His last wish before he dies is to live in the virtual world, best if the 18+ restrictions can be lifted.”

“@Boss Lin, quickly plan another era-breaking upgrade!

I have nothing worth looking forward to in reality anymore.”

…

Not only were people not worried about being unable to log out, but many actually wanted to never log out.

Of course, there are surely many spectators who were just joining the fun, but saying that there aren’t any people who genuinely want it to be true would be impossible.

Only these people won’t know that Lincoln’s action is even faster than their “wild imagination”!

—— A long time ago, there were already a group of full-body paralysis patients who stayed in the virtual world for a long time, logging out only once every several days, even once every one or two weeks.

And the next era-breaking upgrade for the virtual world, Lincoln had already crossed all the technical hurdles.

The [Hibernation Cabin], which can truly allow players to stay in the virtual world for years as if it was just a day, has dozens being produced every day.

It’s just that this technology is too advanced, society isn’t ready to accept such a future.

But due to this coincidence, the possibility of “eternally living in the virtual world” was discussed for the first time in front of the public.

The first to react to this wasn’t Lincoln or Cloud Dream, but——

Henry!

Under his coordination, various sociologists, legal scholars, computer experts, and science fiction novelists took the stage guiding the development of the topic.

In fact, since the [Hibernation Cabin] appeared and was proven to work, an analysis and discussion on the “impact of hibernation technology on the real world’s social systems and ideologies” have been ongoing; there’s no need to find people temporarily.

Now taking out a small portion of the content about “living long term in a virtual world” for public discussion on the Internet, is not to gather the wisdom of the masses, but to pave the way for the future.

The [Hibernation Cabin] technology, Lincoln has defined it as [medical equipment], it’s obviously planned to be made public to benefit more terminal patients.

Moreover, the first round of use has already sent more than 700 people into hibernation, this scale will definitely continue to expand in the future, it’s nearly impossible to keep it a secret long term.

The relevant discussions are bound to take place sooner or later.

If that’s the case, better sooner than later!
