Chapter 1360: Chapter 1222 “Wait, isn’t that the Game cabin?!

“As of 12 o’clock last night, 387 patients had entered deep hibernation, their consciousness sinking into a slumber as well, in search of extending their lifespan to the greatest extent possible, waiting for future hope.”

“An additional 285 individuals had entered a semi-hibernation state, where their bodies rested while their consciousness remained alert.”

“Among these individuals, more than eighty percent, having been liberated from prolonged ailments, attained a long-lost sense of relief and fell asleep right away.”

“This proves what I said before: hibernation technology is extremely effective in improving sleep quality.”

“The negative impacts of various age-related diseases and physical organ deterioration on life can be greatly alleviated…”

Lincoln stood at the center, talking, while showing some photos and information to the attendees, to substantiate his claims.

Having finished this part, Lincoln was about to discuss the differences between ‘young consciousness’ and ‘old consciousness,’ but an old man in front of him raised his hand.

“What’s wrong?

Is there something you didn’t understand?” Lincoln asked.

“No, no, I was just wondering about the other twenty percent,” the old man asked.

“Umm…” Lincoln hesitated for a moment.

But before the wealthy old men present could get anxious, Lincoln revealed the truth, “Those people…

are quite energetic.

After completing the hibernation surgery, half of them spent the whole night having sex; the other half went off to play games all night.”

“Don’t worry about them; they will rest on their own after having their fill of fun.”

Lincoln felt a bit embarrassed.

After all, this was simply outrageous!

Who could have imagined that these people’s first agenda after temporarily escaping fatal diseases would be to hop into bed or play games?

—Brother, you just escaped from the Grim Reaper’s grasp!

While Lincoln felt embarrassed, the old men before him certainly did not see it that way.

Far from being embarrassed, several of them looked positively radiant!

“Can consciousness still have such vigorous energy after the body goes into hibernation?” the old man asked eagerly.

“Of course.

You don’t think when I mentioned ‘returning to youth’ before, I was only referring to having a young virtual image, do you?” Lincoln exclaimed in surprise, “Would I specifically mention it if it were merely that level of technology?”

“No, no, no…” the old man shook his head quickly, “I meant, the energy ‘in that department.’

Lincoln understood his implication and looked at him in surprise once again.

Normally, men only think about sex when they’re young; after forty, this drive significantly decreases.

But this little old man in front of him, judging by his looks, must be at least seventy, right?

Seventy and still like this?

Is this what they mean by ‘old but young at heart’?

Or is it just that this gentleman refuses to act his age??

Lincoln stopped pondering and provided a clear answer: “It depends on the specific situation.”

“Even young men without physical issues in reality can encounter arousal disorders; not to mention the virtual world, which also depends on your psychological state.”

“If you believe you can, then you can; if you think you’ll have problems, then you indeed will have problems—much like the situation in reality.”

“Of course, just as there are pharmaceutical aids in reality, there are also such aids in the virtual world, even more potent ‘monster bone powder.’

“However, that also involves psychological dependency, which can further weaken your confidence in this area…

In summary, it’s a matter of personal choice.”

Lincoln quickly finished this section and, disregarding the old man’s eager expression to ask more questions, smoothly transitioned to the next topic.

Please, this is technology that can extend lives, eradicate terminal illnesses, change the world, and even virtually travel through time to the future!

Shouldn’t a seminar about such technology be filled with passion and enthusiasm, overflowing with glorious visions of humanity’s future?

In such a serious setting, why discuss aphrodisiacs, argh!!!

Can’t you all have some higher aspirations?!!

Feeling frustrated, Lincoln decided to skip the tiresome parts and get right to the point—

“Anyway!

Hibernation is a ticket aboard a ship heading for the future.”

“And over the past year, how much the world has changed and how many fields have achieved technological breakthroughs, you’ve all seen for yourselves.”

“The limits of human lifespan may soon be completely shattered.”

“At this juncture, time is the future, time is everything!”

“Therefore—”

“This Friday, an auction will be held, offering 100 hibernation spots to the entire globe!”

“The rule is simple: the highest bidder wins.”

“More specific details will be emailed to you all later.”

Having said that, Lincoln turned and left.

The person in charge of the [Free Life and Democracy Activities Foundation], Erman, then stepped up to the front and took over the remaining work from Lincoln.

Now that America had lifted all bans on Cloud Dream, the demand for protest marches, legal aid, bailing people out, and other routine work had dropped significantly, leaving only some final tasks in retrieving people, which naturally meant the foundation had become much less busy.

A transformation of the foundation was, therefore, inevitable.

But they were definitely not going to let their core talent slip away, especially someone like Erman who was bold yet meticulous, firm in his stance, and had a highly flexible moral baseline.

He was an indispensable asset, perfectly suited to handle many overseas businesses.

In this regard, he was much more suitable than Jerome.

After all, Jerome had comparatively higher moral standards and, representing Cloud Dream, was not suitable to get involved in many matters.

But Erman didn’t mind at all.

An excellent tool indeed!

Lincoln never mistreated his people, and not only would all the foundation’s employees receive a large bonus, but key staff members would also be given ‘Hibernation Insurance’ – when they needed it, Cloud Dream would unconditionally perform hibernation surgery on them and carry out the highest level of Mixed Reality Transformation in their homes.

But all that was for the future.

Erman was still young and strong, and with a big opportunity in sight, how could he possibly consider going into hibernation now?!

Erman was fully charged with action!

Lincoln, on the other hand, once again became the laid-back manager, returning to his seat as an eager spectator.

Another day passed.

As the number of people entering hibernation increased and as the first batch of patients’ families finished all their affairs and began to recover from their exertions, the news of [Hibernation Warehouse] finally spread on the Internet.

Initially, netizens didn’t believe it, thinking the posters were fabricating stories.

Because hibernation technology was too sci-fi, it made no sense for it to suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Even if it did exist, they should have heard about it from the early morning news on Daxia TV Station, not from an unfamiliar netizen on the Internet.

However, as netizens shared more evidence and more relatives and even patients themselves came forward to confirm, netizens couldn’t help but start to waver.

Finally, a photo completely confirmed the matter—

A patient had taken a picture with their own body in hibernation at their home, which had undergone Mixed Reality Transformation – the photo was captured by her mom using a [Mirage 3.0] headband.

What really convinced netizens was not the selfie with the netizen but the hibernation cabin—

“Wait!!

Isn’t that a game cabin???”

“Hibernation technology, was it created by Lincoln?

Damn, that makes sense all of a sudden!”

“I also have a game cabin at home!

This thing can’t be used for hibernation, can it?

It’s not on the menu, is there a hidden mode?”

“Don’t say that!

Seriously, don’t!

Lincoln is totally capable of pulling off something like this!

He loves to plant Easter eggs!”

“@Lincoln, aren’t you going to explain this?”

As the topic touched on Lincoln, and the authenticity of the [Hibernation Warehouse] was preliminarily confirmed, netizens’ enthusiasm for discussion exploded instantly!

The keyword [Hibernation Warehouse] quickly ascended to the top spot on Hot Searches!
