Chapter 1293 - The Happy Lilith

Translator: _Min_  Editor: Rainystars

“… an epic online adventure, Future Technology debuts another masterpiece, pushing the limits of games to the edge of the galaxy. No one can surpass this in ten years unless it is another piece created by Future Technology.” Jiang Chen sifted through the news and comments on Galaxy Edge with a grin while he was sitting down on the sofa, he then looked at Lilith, “Your game is highly-rated.”

“Oh.” Lilith, who was fighting in the fantasy world in her helmet, only gave a nonchalant response, and then continued to just lay there without a word.

“Aren’t you curious about what the netizens said?” Jiang Chen asked as he scrolled through the comments.

At the start, Jiang Chen was still a little concerned as to whether Lilith could perfectly create the game design with code, but now, it seemed like his concern was excessive.

In nearly a thousand alpha tests, not a single bug appeared. And for bugs that existed because of game design, they were quickly fixed with her help.

In less than a week, Lilith not only completed the remaining development work but also upgraded the existing game development tools of Future Technology. Lilith’s inhumane work efficiency was simply incredible.

“I’ve seen them.”

Although her expression did not change, Jiang Chen could still feel that Lilith was in a good mood.

As for why, he was not very clear.

Probably just a feeling?



In addition to Lilith’s work, Future Technology employees were also capable. The carefully tailored trailers perfectly illustrated the charm at the edge of the galaxy to all the netizens around the world.

With 500,000 limited-edition game cabins worth $100,000 XND made available, they were instantly sold out by the next day. After all costs were removed, the sale generated a profit of more than $30 billion XND. Even when compared to the wealth Jiang Chen has already accumulated, the shocking profit still excited him.

If it weren’t for the product to be marketed as limited-edition, the idea of making another one million units to satisfy the shopping desire of old and new money around the world really tempted Jiang Chen.

“There are more than 500 million potential players worldwide, and it is estimated that the number of people who will log in to the game on the first day will exceed 300 million. Our promotion effort is very successful. As long as the quality of the game itself can reach 80% of the demo, this will become an inexhaustible gold mine. ”

Today was a rest day.

As she leisurely sat under the shade of the umbrella on the balcony, Xia Shiyu reported her work while drinking her coffee.

“The actual demo only showed the tip of the iceberg,” Jiang Chen smiled. “Thirty minutes is not enough to fully show the true beauty of Galaxy Edge. In order to continue to hype up players’ expectations, we just simply went over a lot of features. I believe that when the players enter the game, they will be amazed by the countless unexpected surprises.”

Xia Shiyu’s lips also curved up after Jiang Chen finished explaining. She fixed the hair strands around her ear and jokingly said.

“It’s rare for you to be so invested in work.”

“I do work from time to time, okay?” Jiang Chen rolled his eyes and spread his hands helplessly. “It’s just that my work is mainly concentrated on Celestial Trade. For Future Group, I have to count on you.”

“Speaking of which, what’s going on in the Mars colony?” After Xia Shiyu took aother sip of the rich coffee, she gently placed the coffee cup on the plate and asked.

“Mine 071 has been recovered, and more than eleven nests have been destroyed. The swarm’s attack is gradually collapsing under the tires of our new equipment. Engineers have begun to strengthen the support structure of the ruins. The current progress is going well, and it won’t be long before we can make the ruins of Gaia civilization reappear,” Jiang Chen responded.

“Is that so?” Xia Shiyu’s mood was also cheered up because of Jiang Chen’s content mood, then she added, “What about SS Origin?”

“SS Origin? I remember two days ago that it safely passed the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It is now moving towards Jupiter at one-thousandth of the speed of light. Once it reaches Jupiter, Origin will try to use the slingshot effect to accelerate, and it theoretically can exceed the maximum speed threshold, but there are also risks involved with this decision. After all, no one knows whether the acceleration method applicable to small starships is applicable to large starships.”

“Jupiter? It feels very far away.” Xia Shiyu gazed into the blue sky outside the umbrella and suddenly said with melancholy.

“Is it far away? Their destination is even farther away, the Kuiper Belt, thirty astronomical units from Earth.”

“Thirty astronomical units?” Xia Shiyu looked to Jiang Chen. “How long does it take?”

“About a year, maybe a little more, only professionals will know.”

“I thought you were a professional,” Xia Shiyu had a grin as she joked.

“Me? I’m a layman at most on technical problems.” Jiang Chen laughed along.

Once SS Origin arrived at Kuiper Belt, it would investigate the resources in the area. At the formation of the solar system, everything was concentrated here, especially water resources, helium-3, and metallic materials. Determining the distribution of these resources would provide considerable help for the future selection of the outer space defense fortress.

In addition, Origin would also launch the newest observation satellite inside the Kuiper Belt, while deploying a research space station with ten astronauts. The station would cooperate with scientists at the Space Command Center to carry out scientific research in the Kuiper Belt.

A year was a long time, but for most of the crew on the starship, it was just a matter of a blink. The hibernation chambers, especially, made Interstellar navigation less dreadful.

“Right, I have always wanted to ask. Did you decide to make Galaxy Edge as a promotion for Celestial Trade’s Space Colony Plan?”

“That is part of the reason.” Jiang Chen acknowledged the point. “After all, the universe is still a very distant thing for most people. After the incident in Finland, people started to look up more, but that’s not enough. To take our steps further, we must ignite everyone’s desire for the brave new world.”

Jiang Chen then smiled.

“I think the game is a great choice. It just so happens that we also have the Phantom helmet that can use VR to show the true beauty of the universe to people around the world.”
