All Novel Full Chapter 1266
Chapter 1266: Chapter 1142 “Boss, could it be…you too?” _1 Chapter 1266: Chapter 1142 “Boss, could it be…you too?” _1 “Before I answer that question, think back for a moment.
Did you forget something?”
“?” Cheryl paused in confusion.
Then she spoke somewhat sheepishly, “Have I not already apologized?”
“Anyway, boss, you’ve been enveloped by ‘A Quiet Place’ for a few days now, isn’t that just another team-building excuse?
You won’t feel itchier with more fleas!”
“????” Lincoln felt a headache coming on, “I suspect you’re trying to provoke me.”
“I’m sorry!” Cheryl apologized at lightning speed.
“Think of something else!” Lincoln emphasized.
Cheryl’s brain crashed.
“Sigh,” the feeling of his naive daughter growing up thoughts petered out, “Do you remember, you designed a cat girl and a puppy boy?”
“?” Cheryl paused for a moment, then quickly clicked, “Oh right!”
“And the Silly Dog Milkshake character from Night City, now over eighty million users are raising it.”
“Really?

The Milkshake has always been popular!” Cheryl was brimming with confidence in the popularity of Milkshake.
“So, if animals had no system protection and there indeed were perverted users, wouldn’t they have been harmed long ago?”
“Ah?” Cheryl was shocked, “Has this thing already happened?”
“Of course not!” Lincoln grumbled, wondering whether the girl had been oblivious due to the overwhelming popularity of her creation “Homeward Journey”.
Where did her sharp wit go?
“What I meant was: Animals, too, would of course be protected by the system!”
“Oh, so it’s just that users can’t have sex with animals, right?” Cheryl was relieved.
But Lincoln didn’t confirm her explanation.
“?” Cheryl felt the atmosphere start to shift.
After a moment of silence, Lincoln finally spoke again, “It’s not entirely like that.”
“???” Cheryl was shocked.
“What do you mean ‘it’s not entirely like that’?”
“In simple terms: Users can indeed have sex with animals, but it must be done in a state of ‘non-forced’ manner approved by the system.”
Cheryl’s eyes widened.
“Animal NPCs, are all taken to be unwilling,” Lincoln added.
“Oh.” Cheryl breathed a sigh of relief.
“So it means that only those users in a couple relationship who can transform into animals get to have sex, effectively there’s no difference from the current situation.”
As a cooperative, puzzle-solving, parkour game, “Homeward Journey” controlled its difficulty to prevent players from feeling too much frustration, hence a lot of checkpoints were set.
Among these checkpoints, many met the standards of a [Private Space].
When these were set, she only intended to provide players a [Safe] and [Relaxed] psychological comfort, allowing them to regroup and adjust their state.
She had not predicted that these places could possibly stage a “cat show”, or a “dog show”.
Wait…
Do cats and dogs count as a part of the cat show or the dog show?
Cheryl shook her head, pushing these outrageous questions out of her mind.
Anyway, not increasing the workload is a good thing!
However, just to be safe, she should recheck those [Private Space] settings.
But before she left, she could not help but ask another question:
“Boss, when you were designing the virtual world, why did you add these features?”
“Could it be… you also?”
“???” Lincoln also widened his eyes, “You bitch…”
“Beep!
Beep—beep—beep——”
Cheryl hung up the phone.
Lincoln looked at his phone, speechless.
Ɲονǥο.сᴑ
He did not design this!
The virtual world’s underlying functions were astonishingly diverse.
Not to mention turning into animals to have sex, if only one person transformed and the other did not, sex would still be possible!
—As long as users are given the freedom to transform, the technology of the virtual world can truly support such behavior.
As he continuously explored and deciphered the virtual world, Lincoln increasingly suspected that the creator of this technology may have abandoned reality and plunged headfirst into the virtual world.
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain the level of tolerance of the framework for various outrageous sexual quirks—or say the tolerance for all possibilities.
In fact, the much-praised ultra-realistic experience offered by the virtual world now is the result of Lincoln adding layers of restrictions.
If all restrictions were removed, both pain and pleasure could escalate to a terrifying degree.
It could rapidly heighten a person’s sensory threshold to a staggering level, making normal stimulus unable to satisfy them.
This could virtually destroy a person’s psyche.
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered something: He wondered if Richard, who was in jail pedaling the sewing machine, would experience phantom pain in his butt?
But he quickly shook his head, not thinking further about it.
Rather than pondering that, he might as well think about the converted [Digital Life].
He wondered if they would need to adjust their daily sensory settings to make them closer to reality or even to return to their youth?
Now the academicians and their elderly partners who were nearing the end of their lives have all completed the transformation operation.
—But they did not rush to discard their physical bodies.
Instead, half of them entered a hibernation state, while the other half wore the brand-new headband to complete their “bucket list”.
On the side of the elderly soldiers who were also nearing the end of their lives, things were not going smoothly.
Based on the feedback Lincoln received, the special task force had queried over five hundred veteran soldiers, but fewer than a hundred accepted this “life extension” method.
And among these nearly hundred people who agreed, 70% did so not for the sake of prolonging their lives.
After those elderly people were repeatedly assured that their participation in this “experiment” would greatly assist technological progress, they signed the agreement.
They agreed to be transformed into digital life, not to live longer, but to serve their country one last time before death.
As for the soldiers who rejected the offer, the most common remarks were: “Enough talk”, “It’s time to go”, and “My comrades are waiting for me”…
So, it’s now confirmed that the first batch of people transformed into digital life would be significantly less than originally expected.
Lincoln was a little disappointed, but beyond accepting and respecting, there was nothing much he could say.
These veteran soldiers had lived for almost a century and clearly knew how to live.
They did not need anyone to meddle with their choices.

Cheryl hung up Lincoln’s call and mentally prepared herself for her own “punishment” the next day.
Given the precedent of Fred cross-dressing to work for a week, she felt that no matter what punishment befalls her, it couldn’t be worse than Fred.
Logging into the world of “Homeward Journey”, Cheryl began to check those [Private Areas], all the while thinking: The netizens and the boss have some really twisted sexual quirks!
She used to think that the boss only liked bunny girls, but now it appears that he may just like…
rabbits!
