Translator: 549690339
Lincoln’s appearance once again triggered a strong reaction in the live broadcast room.
“Lincoln is here, first row Tiger Touch Leader!”
“What do you mean you did a good job? You think it’s playing cards?”
“We misjudged you! All this beautiful scenery and quiet atmosphere, I even invited my best girlfriends to watch the live broadcast together, and this is what you give us?!”
“Be a man!”
“Hurry up with the production! Who are you looking down on with 200,000 units?”
“Who are you looking down on with 600,000 sets? I’ll say it: 10 million!”
“Boss, do you still need someone in your studio? I can do mopping, cooking, serving tea, and I can warm the bed. No salary needed, just let me play the game!”
“Boss, does your studio need a boss lady?”
“Boss, look at me! I may be a man, but my psychological gender is female, and
I’m a transvestic fetish bisexual. Do you have enough boss ladies? If not, can you add me?”
Even with some expectation of the level of absurdity from the trolling netizens, Lincoln still found it a bit overwhelming as he looked at the increasingly outrageous comments.
“Had fun, gotta go now.” He hurriedly sent a farewell message and exited the live broadcast room.
He then asked Mavis for help in registering a small account and sneaking back in for a peek.
But the live broadcast was already coming to an end.
Camille Victoria and Shuihua watched the scene displayed by the ancestor once again: Energy began to run short, the white-robed ancestors fell into war, and countless white-robed ancestors were buried under the rolling sand dunes. After an unknown period, the starlight in the sky fell, and a red-robed figure appeared on the sand dune.
“Oh! I get it! The red-robed figure is us! The relics of civilization along the way were built by our ancestors, but the magic was lost in wars that ensued. And then we appeared! Is this about going to the Sacred Mountain to find the magic and rebuild civilization?”
“Very likely!”
“You’re right! Reviving the ancestral glory is our unshirkable duty! Charge!” “Charge my ass, what time is it? Are you going to sleep or not?”
Seeing the comments reminding her, Camille Victoria finally realized that the system had prompted her several times before, but because the game was so immersive, she easily lost track of time.
She was also not sure how the game’s matchmaking mechanism was set up, and she was afraid that if she went offline, she might not be able to connect with Shuihua again, so she played on without eating or drinking until now.
She had some experience with super-long live broadcasts before, but she didn’t expect the girl on the other side to be able to endure so much as well.
Nevertheless, today’s live broadcast had to end, or else her body might not be able to take it.
She took another look around at the surrounding scenery, where golden runes filled the sky and the ground. A towering gate slowly opened in the distance, revealing a dimly lit hallway.
“Today’s live broadcast will end here. As for the scenery later on, let’s leave the suspense for tomorrow! If you want to see the later levels, you can follow my live broadcast room, and we’ll continue our journey tomorrow!”
After saying this, she sent a private message to Shuihua and quickly exited the game and stopped the live broadcast.
Lincoln also turned his gaze away.
Now, some people have already received their VR equipment. Some people just play by themselves, at most posting a photo on social media to show off. There are also those who make all kinds of unboxing and evaluation videos, trying to catch the heat.
Some people naturally started live streaming. As long as they start live streaming, countless audience members will follow the keywords “Cloud Dream Host” and “Mirage” in the title and come in, with the traffic skyrocketing.
Looking at the surging popularity, these streamers no longer cared about their previous attitude towards “Traveler of the Wind” for the past week and unanimously switched to praising mode, effortlessly spouting flattering remarks.
“Incredible realism and completion!”
“I never thought we could play games like this, even the best and most expensive VR equipment can’t compare to the experience!”
“The Second World, the Cyber World, are these really happening in our lifetime?!”
It’s worth noting that before today, the online evaluation of “Traveler of the Wind” was mostly negative, and most game streamers expressed skepticism about this unfamiliar form of gaming.
Because they really haven’t played such a lukewarm, non-competitive, and non-combative game before, nor have they seen any successful precedents for such games.
But today, when they got their hands on the equipment and experienced “Traveler of the Wind” in the virtual environment, they immediately realized that their previous experience was completely useless. The current experience was completely different from using VR equipment – the ethereal sense of speed, the feedback from gravity and flight, everything was indescribably wonderful!
They immediately thought: Is this the era-defining human-machine interaction equipment with a crushing advantage over previous-generation equipment?!
So they immediately turned into Lincoln’s mindless fans without any psychological burden.
Of course, amidst the chorus of praise, there were some maverick streamers:
“? Why can’t I take off my pants? Bad rating!” A streamer entered the game, took a quick look around the environment, and began trying to undress. Upon realizing that he couldn’t undress, he immediately made a sharp comment.
“???” Lincoln looked at the streamer trying to take off his pants, his mind full of question marks.
I mean, it’s normal for you to try to take off your pants while playing on your own. It’s human nature, and I won’t say anything.
But my friend, are you live streaming?!
You’re going to take off your pants in front of hundreds of thousands of people?!
Is there nobody left on this planet that you care about?
The comments section immediately became lively, as netizens rarely saw someone so shameless.
Fortunately, after this stunt, the streamer calmed down a bit and didn’t make any more outrageous scenes, proceeding to explore forward.
Lincoln took a rough look at a few streamers and found that their reactions were mostly astonishment and surprise, followed by endless praise. Once he was sure that there would be no issues with the streamers’ word of mouth, he felt much more at ease.
After all, these streamers don’t just represent themselves.
In the internet age, the evaluations of these streamers will influence all the people in their live broadcast rooms. If the majority of streamers on a platform hold a consistent opinion, the game’s word of mouth is likely to be determined.
Amplified by countless viewers, the impact and coverage are really too wide.
Just as Lincoln was about to close these live broadcasts and relax, he saw the “pants-less man” pulling another stunt.
“I’ve decided to challenge a super-long marathon! No completion, no end to live streaming! I’ll do what I say!”
The audience once again got excited, excitedly brushing comments, expressing their emotions.
Lincoln also admired this. In the virtual environment, the full course of “Traveler of the Wind” was extended by him. If one is familiar with the map and doesn’t pursue all runes, they can possibly finish it within 6 hours in a speed run.
However, for the first-time exploration, it might take nearly 20 hours to complete.
He wasn’t sure if the streamer would still be so ambitious if he knew this.
Of course, Lincoln wouldn’t just watch his players suffer.
He immediately logged in with his certified account and entered the live broadcast room.
He then brushed a rocket on the spot, left an encouraging message: “Keep it up, you can do it! I’ll brush another rocket for you once you’ve completed it!”
