Camille Victoria didn’t even eat, she rubbed the giant panda while starving, rubbing it to her heart’s content.

She felt like she had made up for several years’ worth of rubbing in just one

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Finally, even the Mirage System started to remind her that she must go offline to eat. Only then did she open the panel and exit the game.

The screen returned to reality, Camille Victoria took off the headband and sat up straight in the customized adjustable sit-lying chair.

Just as she sat up and was about to say something, she saw her mobile phone vibrate on the table.

She picked up her phone, opened it, and saw an invitation. Without thinking too much, she scrolled down and read it aloud:

“Ms. Camille Victoria:

Hello, we have recently completed a new research achievement, which should significantly improve your life.

Due to your friendship with our company’s founder, Mr. Lincoln, we sincerely extend an invitation for you to test our new product.

If you’re interested, you can come to our company within the next three working days to try it out.

Since the project is still in the internal testing stage, please do not disclose any information to the outside world…”

Camille Victoria stopped abruptly at this point, her face panicked as she looked at the camera.

Obviously, the upgraded camera, which was worth its price, was working very well.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

She then looked at the live broadcast software with a face full of despair, showing a total number of online audience: 4-5 million.

– It was only because she had left the game that some of the audience had already left the live broadcast room.

In Camille Victoria’s heart seemed to be a stampede of ten thousand alpacas.

Her mental state completely collapsed!

“It’s over, completely over! Will I be blacklisted by Cloud Dream?!”

Camille Victoria once again understood the principle: every action and word in a live stream must be carefully considered! Otherwise, you might say something that would ruin everything.

In a state of utter despair, Camille Victoria didn’t even bother to check the live broadcast room’s updates and simply closed the live stream.

But this didn’t halt chatter in the live broadcast room, and the viewers were already hyped up.

“What did I just see?! Cloud Dream’s new equipment?! ”

“It’s no wonder they’re so close! Trying out new equipment right away! My friends, translate this. Now that’s what I call face!”

“What other new equipment could Cloud Dream have? 100% certain it’s Mirage

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

2.0 ! t,

“I don’t care, I want to know everything about the new equipment right now!”

“Will Camille Victoria be blacklisted?”

“How could she be? After all, they have a close relationship. No need to worry!”

Camille Victoria stopped reading after seeing the “confidential” part, so she didn’t read it all.

But in fact, when she scrolled down to the end, she saw the signature “Journey Prosthetics” and understood that the new product had to be brain-controlled prosthetic limbs.

And the reason she received the invitation to try it in advance was because of her personal relationship with Lincoln.

This made her instantaneously shift from despair to excitement!

Journey Prosthetics might not be a household name among ordinary players, but it was definitely well-known among the disabled community.

Lincoln indeed developed brain-controlled prosthetic limbs and while the new technology has so far only benefited the visually and hearing impaired, it undoubtedly proves that Lincoln is fulfilling his initial promise.

Based on this alone, it’s practically impossible to hear any negative reviews about Lincoln in the disabled community.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Even if Lincoln scolds people online, he’ll be seen as “straightforward and daring to tell the truth!”

No one knows how many people are looking forward to the launch of Journey Prosthetics’ new product.

And now, the new product is really about to hit the market!

No one understands better than her what this means.

But she must keep it a secret and cannot leak the information out. This means she cannot share her joy with others and can only celebrate excitedly by herself.

The next morning, Lincoln looked down at his phone and saw the hot search entry “Mirage 2.0 release imminent”, then raised his head to look at the laughing Mavis on the screen. He doubted his life’s decisions.

What’s going on?

Yesterday he was ahead of the game, how come, after waking up from a nap, he suddenly fell behind again?

He meant to release a new console, but he hadn’t fully thought it through yet!

How could you guys Imow about it in advance?!

Did the ancestral master have a dream to tell you?

It’s just absurd!

“What’s the matter?” Lincoln was utterly baffled. “Did the news of us adjusting the production line leak from the factory?”

“It couldn’t have happened so quickly, right? I just finished talking to Factory

Manager Zhou Jingzheng last night!”

“Hehe.” Mavis revealed the answer to him, “They got fooled!”

Mavis explained the whole story, and Lincoln just felt speechless.

How to say it, according to his plan, if the upgraded version of the console is released, the time when this week’s sales exceed 100 million will definitely be a great opportunity.

However, this idea is obviously not difficult to guess.

Last night when they saw that “Mirage 2.0” was about to be launched, many media and netizens confidently made predictions –

“It must be after the 100 million sales, the exact news will be released, either sell directly, or announce a trailer!”

If Lincoln followed the original plan, it would really be a perfect match for them!

Wrong evidence, but the correct conclusion was derived…

It’s absurd!

Thinking of this, Lincoln’s rebellious psychology came up.

He stopped eating and began to think: Is there any other time node that is suitable for the release of the news?

But after thinking for 5 minutes, he felt clueless.

Hunger and laziness overcame his rebellious psychology –

“Forget it, what’s the point of arguing… The original plan is quite good. Let’s eat.’

When Camille Victoria sneaked into the Prosthetic Journey Company wearing a mask and sunglasses as if she was a thief, Lincoln also arrived at the Cloud Dream office.

As soon as he logged into the virtual world, before he could catch his breath and check the progress of “Speed Chase”, he was found by Little Chun.

Princess Camille Victoria was going to talk to Lincoln about the good news of the concert, but she was interrupted by Little Chun and could only follow helplessly.

Now, only Lincoln, Randall, and Little Chun know her identity.

Even the finance staff who paid her salary didn’t know.

Because Camille Victoria’s salary was calculated by Mavis and paid out by Lincoln.

People in the company only knew that this intern was extraordinary and brought in by the boss himself, but they didn’t know why.

She was like a “free agent” within the company, able to choose which project team to join according to her interests.

Now, the princess is also working in the “My World” production team led by Little Chun, and she is very clear about Little Chun’s troubles.

Lincoln was dragged into the newly born “Block World” with a bewildered expression, and then listened to Little Chun talking endlessly. He finally managed to catch up with his thoughts and figure out the problem they encountered.

“I see.” Lincoln also felt a headache.

He could only imagine how absurd it would be for a player to encounter a giant gorilla, and instead of fixing its feet or exploiting its weaknesses, they would just burst out in speed, throw out a bunch of obsidian, and construct a cage on the spot.

Should they then disable the “Construct” feature during combat?

Disable the “Construct” feature in special situations where the BOSS is present?

But each restriction would affect many other factors, making the design more and more complicated, and even creating more problems during the later stages of game development.

At that time, every change would require a lot of energy.

It’s not worth it!

Lincoln likes to add a lot of things to the game, but these things are all peripheral gameplay.

The core design philosophy has always been simple and clear, as simple as possible.

Otherwise, the metropolis alone could do countless things. If it weren’t for the main storyline, this game could go on forever and even become an online game with superheroes running wild on the streets…

With this philosophy in mind –

“Then take ‘Construct’ as the core and purify the core of the game.” As expected.

Little Chun showed a disappointed, but expected expression.

Lincoln’s choice was within their expectations, but before making a decision, they had some thoughts.

Now that they’re gone, they can only give up and focus on making a construction game.

Seeing that Little Chun and the girls in the team were still in low spirits, Lincoln explained to them, “A fascinating combat game can be made anytime, but the opportunity to explore younger players is very rare.”

“Leisurely ‘Construction’ gameplay can truly lower player age to under 10 years old. And this is different from amusement parks, it’s a game that children can really ‘play’ with unlimited possibility for children of all age groups.”

“In the end, the number of users and influence of this game may exceed your imagination!”

Seeing that everyone was still not excited, Lincoln finally threw out the last big move: “There’s another advantage to this. You can design monsters, BOSS, combat and other elements freely, without being restricted by the grading issue.”

“Make two games at the same time?” Little Chun asked surprisingly.

“No.” It was clear that she misunderstood, “It’s one game, but with different graded play modules added based on the all-ages game.”

“We can make a Wilderness Survival module, maybe[12+]; a Combat Survival module, maybe[14+]; a Dungeon Exploration module, maybe[16+]…”

Lincoln looked at the employees in front of him and summed up: “A game with unlimited possibilities.”

“A game with different grades?” The employees asked in surprise.

“I prefer to call it: Dynamic Grading Mechanism.”

“Is there such a grading method?” Little Chun had never heard of such a thing.

Nor had anyone else present heard of it.

Lincoln looked at their confused expressions and smiled:

“There can be..”
