All Novel Full Chapter 967
Chapter 967: Chapter 901 “Generous Brewer”_1 Chapter 967: Chapter 901 “Generous Brewer”_1 Not only were the players amazed, but the media were also quite surprised.
Free games are not uncommon, but they’re either free-to-play with in-app purchases or small, independent games.
For a game of the scale and quality of “Chang’an” to be given away for free is unprecedented.
— Strictly speaking, it’s not entirely free.
The price set by Cloud Dream for this chapter was originally 80 dollars, but because of Lincoln’s outrageous “0 discount” policy, it was made free.
But a genuine “0 discount” is, in itself, a huge spectacle.
Instantly, the topic’s popularity surged.
Correspondingly, the sales of the first chapter of “Chang’an” experienced another peak, with an additional ten million sales in just two days.
Only ten million more sales were needed to reach one hundred million.
In addition, the time of the release of the second chapter of “Chang’an” also coincided with the restoration of the original price of “Battlefield”.
However, their first-day sales were a new low for Cloud Dream Games, which makes them a pair of unfortunate brothers in a sense.

After the update of “Chang’an”, Super Tomato didn’t immediately undertake a new task, but entered the Public World to gather people.
He himself has considerable influence, and leveraging the fallout of the [Freedom Day] nuclear explosion, pushed forward the [Virtual World Non-Proliferation Treaty].

He used great effort and brought the 152 “sword holders” into a group, and agreed to celebrate their achievement with a drink together today.
— The 196 players who acquired the [Sword of Heaven] are not all Great Xia People.
Many of them are spread across the world, belong to different countries and speak different languages.
Thanks to the virtual world, an all-purpose “bridge”, Super Tomato was able to successfully contact a large number of these people.
But even so, there were still some who could not be contacted or refused his invitation.
Although Super Tomato only proposed an idea and didn’t enforce the “no nuclear explosions unless necessary” consensus, it was more of an excuse for everyone to get together to have a drink.
It can also be considered as promoting friendship among players from different countries.
Either way, Super Tomato added all the “sword holders” he could contact and who were willing to make more friends to the same group, and agreed on a time for the gathering.
Not only these 152 people attended the gathering.
Super Tomato announced this news publicly, welcoming everyone to join the gathering.
He intended to make this gathering a milestone event — a scene where players from different countries gather together for a peaceful coexistence, rather than competition.
Therefore, all are welcome.
To supply so much alcohol, he had to enlist a lot of help.
Quite a few anchors actively joined in, and some famous casual players who specialize in cooking and brewing also enthusiastically joined the fun.
Although Red Dust’s sword had exploded, he was still invited by Super Tomato.
Red Dust accepted the invitation gladly.
He had recovered from the heartache of losing his treasured sword to some extent, especially after selling a large batch of [Zixun Powder] yesterday.

By clearing the inventory and making a solid profit, his spirits were high.
Old friends like Victoria, Yi, Yelang, and others, along with their fans, came to join in, bringing tables, chairs, and starting from the outside of the restaurant, the setup extended all along the road.
Once everything was set up, they just casually found a spot to sit down, with people serving dishes and wine, and it was hard to tell whether they were players or NPCs.
But it didn’t matter, as long as there was food and drink.
Lincoln, Mavis and Camille Victoria came to the scene disguised and roamed around out of curiosity.
Only after several rounds did they find a table and sat down.
They were originally in the “Pacific Rim” project team, researching mechs.
The four or five mechs in the main storyline are clearly not enough for the players to enjoy, so they serve their purpose just during the storyline.
Once the storyline is completed and the exploration phase is entered, the database of mechs and attachments must be significantly expanded.
While designing mechs, they also needed to design five different tiers from 1 to 5, plan different components, which ones can only be used on mechs of the same tier, and which ones can be universally used on all tiers.
Besides that, the design of the medium and small mechs was quite taxing.
They need to maintain a rough uniformity with the style of the giant mechs, adapt to different application scenarios, design distinct features, and must also design a wide variety of shapes and genres to make sure the players want every single one and are willing to spend time grinding for it.
Lincoln was designing along the lines of Iron Man’s Mark series when Mavis suddenly ran over with sparkling eyes, gave his arm a shake, and said she wanted to join the gathering.
After knowing the ins and outs, Lincoln indeed felt that this affair was meaningful and so he decisively skipped work to bring Mavis and Camille Victoria to join the fun.
And he truly did not come in vain.
Players from every corner of the world crowded in this small area, boisterously chatting away.
Because of differing cultures and national backgrounds, many things that were commonplace to locals seemed novel to foreigners.
The virtual world eliminated language barriers, making conversation even more enthusiastic, with everyone passionately involved.
The dishes were quickly served, and the wine bowls were also prepared.
An older brother lifted two massive wine barrels onto the high platform set up by three tables.
He turned on the tap and began pouring the wine.
Below, people assisted, filling their wine pots and quickly delivering them to each table.
Obviously, this was a professional brewer.
He even had a blacksmith create a faucet to make more convenient wine barrels.
Lincoln observed the festive environment, pondered briefly, and then rubbed Mavis’s head—now in a disguised green head, leaned into her ear and whispered a few words.
Mavis nodded happily as streams of golden data flashed quickly in her pupils.
Inevitably, the number of waiters from the surrounding restaurants who were helping multiplied by twenty times without anyone noticing.
They brought with them an endless supply of tables and chairs, tableware, and some side dishes, turning this “great feast” into a market banquet.
Super Tomato stood in the center, loudly speaking.
He didn’t mention much about the [Virtual World Non-Proliferation Treaty], just brushed upon it briefly.
Afterward, he used most of his words to welcome everyone’s arrival, along with encouraging everyone to make more friends.
He emphasized utilizing the convenient conditions of the virtual world to make more friends from other countries, broaden exchanges, and expand horizons.
Finally, he introduced the sword bearers at the center tables to everyone.
While he was introducing them, two older brothers pulled out their swords on the spot, saying nothing before taking a swipe at each other’s sword.
This scared everyone at the scene.
Super Tomato instinctively fell back a step and almost fell from the high platform.
It was only after seeing that both swords were fine that everyone calmed down—only under a sufficient collision of force would the swords cause a nuclear explosion.
It’s fine to take a light swing.
After the two older brothers who stirred up trouble quickly put away their swords, they picked up the wine cups and raised a toast to all sides.
Then they drained their cups, laughed heartily, and apologized to everyone.
The atmosphere of the scene became even more lively.
Super Tomato took advantage of this momentum: “Friends, let’s raise our glasses, to the sword bearers, to Cloud Dream, to ourselves, to everyone!”
Under his encouragement, all the players filled their glasses with wine, raised their glasses high in the direction of the high platform.
Upon hearing Super Tomato shout “cheers”, they all poured the wine into their bellies in unison, drinking it all.
Lincoln was about to drink his glass of wine.
But at the last moment, Mavis suddenly reached out and stopped him and Camille Victoria from drinking their wine.
“?” Lincoln was startled, “What’s the matter?”
The next moment he found out the answer—
After everyone drank their wine, countless rays of light suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping everyone, even Super Tomato on the high platform was no exception.
So many people achieved their achievements at the same time, causing the achievement music to merge together, sounding rhythmically to transform an ordinary tune into a grand symphony.
Red Dust, sitting on the dedicated seat for the sword bearers, stared blankly at the achievement trophy that suddenly appeared in front of her, still not understanding what had happened.
Super Tomato, holding the trophy, then read out the achievement name written on the base—
“[Fool’s Love]?”
“What is this?”
“A master brewer contributed all the good wine for the achievement?”
“So generous!?”
After a brief moment of stunned silence, the players quickly became excited again!
They came to join the fun, enjoyed a free banquet, and even got an achievement for free, how could they not be happy!
Amidst the crowd, it seemed that only Lincoln couldn’t bring himself to feel happy.
He looked at the wine in his cup, then at the excited players around him, and for a moment he didn’t know what to say.
