Chapter 661: Chapter 628: See More, Learn More, Broaden Knowledge


    Lincoln and the lead fan both froze.


    The lead fan froze because, “Could it be like this?”


    Lincoln froze for an even simpler reason: Damn, bro, you have some twisted tastes!


    “What do you mean by mechanical beauties?” The lead fan, Thomas, asked uncertainly.


    “Mechanical prosthetics, cyber prosthetics, brainputer interfaces, haven’t you ever heard of them?”


    “I’m not quite sure if my sexual preferences go that far…” The lead fan felt his mind was getting a bit messy.


    “Then develop it further!” Lincoln suddenly got excited.


    “Come on, let me introduce you to them from shallow to deep, and see how much you can ept.”


    “Huh?”


    “First, let’s start with a single mechanical arm prosthetic.”<div>


    “Imagine a beauty with a high-tech, pure metal prosthetic left arm. Let me think of a name… um… [Vibration Gold], how about that? It sounds pretty high-end! A beautiful girl with a Vibration Gold left arm, perfect for winter.”


    “Ah…” The lead fan fell into thought, trying to imagine a “Vibration Gold” left-armed beauty that would go well with “winter.”


    In his initial imagination, she should be a short-haired girl with white hair.


    But before he could think further, Lincoln started to talk again —


    “The next step is dual-arm prosthetics. Imagine a blonde girl who loses both her arms in a war, gets fitted with mechanical arms, and bes the adopted daughter of a noble family. Underneath her elegant, noble dress hides her metal arms with des, daggers, and pistols.”


    “A fragile appearance, hiding a deadly secret! It not only fits your aesthetic in appearance but also in character!”


    “Next up, mechanical prosthetics for all limbs. Well, that goes without saying,pletely detachable limbs, supporting customized functions, should be quite to your liking?”


    “Moving on…”


    “Can it still develop further?” The lead fan was shocked.


    “Of course! Next up is full-body prosthetics! Except for thought and personality, the rest of the body is all metal and machinery. You can have any body shape you want.”


    “No matter if you’re into mature women or young girls, it’ll satisfy you. And if you change your taste, you can change it freely.”


    The lead fan was already having trouble following Lincoln’s train of thought.


    But Lincoln was not done yet:


    “From here on, it’s the ultimate route: no human elements mixed in at all, from the inside out, 100% pure machinery.”


    “A silicone doll with a metal frame?” The lead fan was shocked and worried, “Won’t that be incredibly heavy?”


    “???” Lincoln was confused, “Why would it be heavy?”


    “Silicone dolls with skeletons inside weigh at least 40-50 pounds, and it’s very heavy, a total workout. And now you’re making it all metal…”


    ‘Can a doll count as both a “soft body” and “hard metal”?’ Lincoln was shocked.


    But he quickly shook his head and cast out these strange thoughts.<div>


    “What are you talking about? Of course, you won’t need to carry it! This is high-tech! It can move on its own! And it has a virtual personality. It might have more strength than you, and it might have to carry you instead!”


    “Oh, I see…”


    “So, what do you think? Have you figured out which one you like best?”


    “I can’t tell just by imagining it…” The lead fan said, unable to make a judgment.<div>


    “So what do you mean?”


    “If you put them all in front of me, my body will tell me the answer!” The lead fan was full of anticipation.


    “???” Lincoln blinked, “So you mean you want them all, right?”


    “Is that possible?”


    “Heh, you’ll see.”


    “Then please do me this favor!” The lead fan put his hands together, sincerely pleaded.


    After saying so, without giving Lincoln a chance to refuse, he turned around and wanted to run.


    “Wait a minute!” Lincoln called out to him, “I won’t go back to the inte tonight and see some strange rumors, right?”


    “No, no. About secretly dating, having a cute girlfriend or something like that… I didn’t see anything!”


    Lincoln couldn’t quite tell if these words were a statement or a threat.


    “You have guts.”


    “It all depends on your performance, haha.” The lead fan left thest words and hurried away.


    But just as he was about to run away, he suddenly remembered something very important—<div>


    Turning back, he asked sheepishly, “So, when I go home, I won’t find that I can’t log into the game, will I?”


    “Haha, that depends on your performance.” Lincoln responded with the same words.


    “I’m sorry! I was wrong!” Thomas promptly admitted his mistake and apologized.


    After another round of friendly “exchange of opinions,” the two finally reached an agreement.


    After seeing off the head of the hater, Lincoln turned around and found that Mavis and the Little Princess were looking at him with strange expressions.


    “?”


    He suddenly had a bad feeling about this…


    “What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to be able to do an offline user survey while ying…” Lincoln tried his best to act nonchnt.


    “Mm-hmm, but that person was really weird!” Mavis chimed in as usual.


    However, the Little Princess’s eyes were still filled with disbelief, not sure whether it was because of the yer’s bizarre XP or Lincoln’s “worldly knowledge”…


    Fortunately, Mavis brought up a new topic in time to help them escape the awkward atmosphere:


    “Master, someone from thepany is looking for you!”


    “What’s up?”<div>


    Mavis raised two disy boards again, one showing the video sent by Shuihua, and the other a report from the [Ecological Reserve] operation team to Lincoln.


    “Someone has been hunting in the [Ecological Reserve]?” Lincoln was surprised, “I thought all the loopholes had been fixed?”


    Before the [Ecological Reserve] went online, Lincoln had instructed the operation team to plug all the loopholes that yers had found for “hunting dinosaurs.”


    Of course, this only applied to the [Ecological Reserve].


    yers could still exploit those loopholes in other ces, including Dinosaur Ind.


    Only the [Ecological Reserve] was off-limits, with all weapons and “weapon-like” items temporarily confiscated upon entering, only to be returned after yers left the reserve.


    Lincoln even added a strict [Iron Limitation] rule, prohibiting yers from bringing in any metal items beyond the allowed specifications into the reserve.


    Having made all these restrictions, Lincoln hadn’t expected anyone to still be able to hunt!


    “What are they using for hunting? Stones? Or teeth?”


    However, just as he asked this question, Shuihua’s video happened to show a yer holding a sturdy ice pir, fiercely stabbing it into the body of a pr bear.


    Lincoln’s eyebrows twitched as he watched.


    After watching the video and report, Lincoln finally understood what was happening.


    It was all about “realism” in the end.<div>


    The purpose of the [Ecological Reserve] was to record and document, created with the help of many schrs and their hard work.


    It seemed as if it had only taken a few months and not much effort.


    But in reality, it was built on the basis of Lincoln’s groundbreaking technology, with countless schrs contributing decades of knowledge and experience to create it.


    Its depth and breadth were astonishing.


    A simple example: within the reserve, you could truly observe aplete ecological chain.


    In the summer, you could even see a wide variety of insects.


    Such details were impossible in the world of “Hunter: Call of the Wilderness” or on Dinosaur Ind.


    Even after the [Ecological Reserve] waspleted and Cloud Dream now had the capability, it still wouldn’t create such details in its games.


    Because there was no need.


    Not only would it upy arge amount of additional system space, but it could even result in a negative experience for the game itself.


    So in the virtual world, the astonishing “realism” of the [Ecological Reserve] was unique.


    Having realized this, Lincoln thought of a solution.


    “You like realism, huh? Then have it your way!”


    Lincoln pulled Mavis over, exined the countermeasures in detail, and asked her toplete the online update directly.


    He then put on his scarf to cover half of his face, and continued sightseeing with Mavis and Camille Victoria, without removing his headband.


    Meanwhile, in the game, Guangxin had just “turned over a new leaf” and was under the supervision of Caleb, learning about conservation with him and Shuihua’s group when he suddenly felt something was off.


    He looked at Shuihua’s ssmates and asked uncertainly:


    “Don’t you guys feel… that it’s gotten colder here?”
