All Novel Full Chapter 1268
Chapter 1268: Chapter 1144: Sanctions from the Old Version!_1 Chapter 1268: Chapter 1144: Sanctions from the Old Version!_1 It’s somewhat tricky to tell whether Cheryl’s efforts were easy or marked by countless obstacles.
Because as soon as she got to work the next day, Lincoln cornered her.
He knocked on her head.
It hurt a bit, but no big damage was done.
Cheryl breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the boss was indeed a good person.
The face that Milkshake had saved also proved to be useful, and getting away with just a knock on the head was not too bad.
She thought she had got away with it.
But after she played with the cats and dogs for a while and completed the morning exercise routine of the day, the moment she logged into the virtual world, “thud”, an invisible conk landed on her head.
“Ouch!” Cheryl screamed in pain while raising her arm to cover her head.
However, this action led to her chin smashing the floor.
“?”
Cheryl blinked her puppy-dog eyes, standing frozen on the spot.
She felt as if she had fallen into a giant realm, everything in the virtual office seemed to be enlarged several times, she could only see the legs of the table and those of her colleagues.
Cheryl blinked her eyes and, utilizing her four-legged running skills,which she had perfected during the development and testing phase for “Return”, ran to the floor mirror.

Soon, she was in front of the mirror.
A miniature coffee-colored teacup dog was standing in the huge mirror.
The teacup dog even had an employee badge labelled with YunMeng Pet Employee engraved in metal around its neck.
The number on it read [000] – even more special than Milkshake’s [001].
Cheryl was dumbfounded.
Because she couldn’t change back.
All other functions on the panel were still there and work was unaffected, but she just couldn’t morph back into a human.
Cheryl was a bit panicked.
This wasn’t the game world, this was the virtual office!
It was full of her colleagues coming and going!
Already, quite a number of people were curiously staring at her!
In the employees’ eyes, the tiny teacup dog in front of the floor mirror had the words “Cheryl” popping up on its head.
As if worried that people couldn’t see clearly, each word was about the same size as the dog’s head!
Everyone couldn’t understand why, but they eagerly photographed and took selfies with the teacup dog.
The female employees excitedly rushed over to pick her up, rubbing her head one after another.
Finally Cheryl paid the price for her popularity – less than five minutes after turning into a teacup dog, her image was spread all over the internet.
But that wasn’t the important part, what mattered was: she had to host work today!
Was she supposed to squat down on the conference table to host the meeting?
Cheryl sent Lincoln a desperate private message for mercy.
But…
[The other party has enabled a friend confirmation, you are not his friend yet, please send a friend confirmation request…]
“?”
Cheryl decided to call instead.
However, Mavis picked up the phone, she was helpless and to add insult to injury, she even teleported over to stroke her dog head.

Cheryl sent a text message.
The other party marked it as [read and ignored].
Cheryl was driven to distraction, logging out and rushing over to Lincoln’s office to find him in person.
But Lincoln wasn’t in his office either.
When she asked Quentina, she said that Lincoln went out to play with Little Princess.
Cheryl couldn’t take it anymore.
It’s one thing for him to run away, but to also take the only person who might speak for her was another!
Cheryl was in despair.
She resigned herself to logging into the virtual world, perched atop the conference table conducting a meeting for the staff members in her team.
She tried her best to sound as serious and solemn as possible.
But everyone was trying hard not to laugh.
Especially when they heard this little teacup pooch suggest: the game name, “Journey Home,” was not cute enough, the selling point wasn’t prominent; adding suffixes like “Woof” and “Meow” would make it more friendly.
It wouldn’t increase the workload, but it could attract more cat-and-dog-loving users to purchase it…
That weird dissonance made it even more hilarious.
Cheryl presented many reasons.
But none were as effective as her scampering cutely across the table…
In the end, the title “Journey Home” successfully got its suffix.
The prestige Cheryl accumulated over her life was destroyed all at once.
She slumped down on the conference table with a blank face, letting a group of female staff stroke her fur and comforting her like a pet.
However, as this twist of destiny would have it: the series of photos of her transformed into a teacup dog went viral on the internet, it was immediately interpreted by the netizens as a unique promotional strategy for “Journey Home.”
After all, “Journey Home” was a game designed to let players become cats and dogs, and Cheryl was the producer of it.
The correlation was too apparent.
The sight of her perched on the conference table, solemnly conducting a meeting, was hilariously funny and irresistibly delightful.
With this combination of factors, the promotional effect turned out to be surprisingly good!
This left Cheryl with mixed feelings—
She was delighted that “Journey Home” was getting promoted, but this dark period of her life would remain on the internet forever…
She had made up her mind: when Lincoln comes back, before he turns her back into a human, she would definitely give him a good bite!

The netizens, oblivious of Cheryl’s complex emotions, were laughing heartily, making memes one after another.
When the news about the trial demo was released, their joy doubled!
Naturally, everyone noticed the addition of the suffix to the game name, but it didn’t cause much of a stir—players who got hold of the trial demo news first hand had known from the start that this was a cute game.
Only when the branding reached new users could this suffix enrich their understanding of the game.
Compared to the elongation of the name, it was the trial demo itself that was more eye-catching.
The streamers who hadn’t completed “A Quiet Place” were suddenly feeling the pressure!
They had planned to work harder to finish all chapters before “Journey Home” was released.
But Cheryl just had to unexpectedly launch the trial demo, wasn’t that like launching a surprise attack?
The last time Cloud Dream had released a trial demo was back during the “Traveler of the Wind” era!
Who could’ve predicted this?
Of course, some streamers felt quite the opposite.
Like Victoria, even though she hasn’t finished “A Quiet Place” either, right now she was exceedingly joyful.
Just yesterday she was pushed by her viewers to progress, finally wrapping up “Secret War” after much difficulty, and it almost made her want to die.
Being rushed by those bloody-hell monsters, you counter-attack, the monsters’ blood splatters all over you, you don’t counter-attack, the monsters bite you to death, your own blood sprays all over your face.
She strongly suspected that the development team had set up some ghastly scenes.
When the monsters charge at the teammates, their moves were swift and lethal, but when they charge at the player, sometimes they would slow down purposely and howl in the player’s face, splattering saliva all over the player.
That made Victoria feel as if: to the monsters, “giving the player a good scare” seemed more important than “quickly killing off the player.”
If you describe this in terms of KPI, killing a player earns a monster 1 point, but if a monster can scare a player until they turn pale and miss a heartbeat, that’s an instant 10 points!
In short, it felt so wrong.
Especially when she aimed to get the “perfect ending”, the final big battle was even more torturous.
—She had no particular fondness for soldier dolls, but…
an ending with special rewards left hanging there, how could she not go after it?
But after finishing it, she didn’t want to see those monsters for another second, let alone the even more horrifying Chapter 7!
The release of “Journey Home” trial demo gave her a powerful reason to temporarily change the live stream content.
Thinking of this, she even felt like sending a banner of gratitude to Cheryl at Cloud Dream!
At two in the afternoon, players who requested sudden leave, streamers who changed their streaming time, media chasing the hot topic…
All parties dived into “Journey Home: Ameow Awang Mobilization Demo” for the trial play!
