Chapter 476: 459: A Neat and Tidy World

Although Lincoln’s performance in the live stream seemed unreliable.

Drawing a prize with a razor blade, almost crashing while playing with the fire and vomiting in front of tens of millions of people...

But everything he said about the game was true.

“My World” did indeed start its closed beta last night, but this time it wasn’t widely publicized, and live streaming wasn’t allowed, so it didn’t make a big splash.

However, if you’re a careful netizen, you would find that today, several well-known anchors like Super Tomato, Camille Victoria, Yi, Yelang, and Lance have chosen to take a leave.

Even if they didn’t take leave, they significantly reduced their live streaming time – either starting later or ending earlier.



The reason is simple: they need to make time to participate in the closed beta of “My World.”

Of course, the closed beta’s primary invitees are not anchors; anchors are only a small part of it. The main focus is on inviting players, with less than 1% of active invitations and 99% of random draws.

As always, Lincoln’s old acquaintances got special invitations outside the quota.

This led to Shuihua leaving Night City and going to Dinosaur Island last night. As soon as she logged in at the supply point, water appeared in front of her and formed a Door of Flowing Water.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the teleportation gate, Shuihua hadn’t figured out what was going on when another stream of water appeared on her right.

A few seconds later, another teleportation gate appeared in front of her.

Shuihua looked at the two identical teleportation gates to her left and right, puzzled.

Trying to touch them, she found that the system prompts were the same for both-

‘”My World,” New Game Closed Beta Invitation, if you accept the invitation, please carefully read the following agreement, and confirm before logging into the New World.’

‘This agreement contains a strict confidentiality agreement, please be sure to read carefully, otherwise, you may face the risk of prosecution.’

– Under Lincoln’s guidance, Cloud Dream’s agreements have always been made as simple and easy to understand as possible, striving to make them accessible to players of any cultural background and without too many twists and turns.

To avoid the players’ “too long, didn’t read” problem, they even made a special [TL;DR version].



The TL;DR version only contained 10-20 key agreement content summaries. After reading it, you could know the key agreement content and the core rights and responsibilities division.

In view of Lincoln’s deterrence – both the deterrence of getting caught technically and the deterrence of heavy blows in reality, no one has violated Cloud Dream’s agreement so far.

Of course, this isn’t something Shuihua needs to worry about. Shuihua was just surprised to see the two doors appearing at the same time, excitedly taking a picture with both of them, and then finding the system feedback to send the screenshot over.

After confirming the agreement, she happily entered the new world.

As for raising dinosaurs?

It’s not like they’ll starve to death for real, and she’s not the only one raising them.

To be more precise, she was just “cloud-raising” them.

The primary responsibility was Camille Victoria’s fan group, a group of people who came up with the idea of seeing if they could tame the young dinosaurs by raising them and eventually domesticate them into pets and mounts.

Apparently, the inspiration came from seeing a nearly 1.9-meter-tall muscular man walking a dinosaur on the beach with a thumb-thick iron chain, measuring more than half a meter in length.

– The Ming Wheel Ship made by Sea King Xu Shenghan is still working overtime to transport players to Dinosaur Island. Of course, if you want to show off, you have to stroll on the beach.

Compared to the muscular man’s physique, the half-meter-long dinosaur seemed too small...

So this group of people decided to follow the footsteps of their ancestors and try to tame dinosaurs. To avoid occupying the players’ public supply points, they even set up a large row of fences and started raising the dinosaurs together.



The good news is: the juvenile dinosaurs they raised grew fast, almost changing every day.

The smallest dinosaur baby grew from 50cm to more than a meter in just two days, and it seemed like it would soon be big enough to carry people.

The bad news is: the domestication effect of the dinosaurs is very poor!

It’s true that when feeding, they would come up and eat on their own, without any aggression, but it’s unclear if it’s because they haven’t had enough time, but they completely don’t get close to humans.

Whether it is or not, everyone is still researching.

Shuihua had classes and her time to take care of the dinosaurs was especially short; there wasn’t a single one out of the dozen or so dinosaurs that got close to her.

Compared to feeding dinosaurs and getting the cold shoulder, the attraction of the “new world” is much more significant!



Lincoln opened the backpack interface, studied the pieces of wood stored in the transparent grid, and looked through the tool manual and crafting recipes. He gradually began to understand one thing:

This game, called “My World”, is completely different from all the other games in Cloud Dream. Everywhere, it exudes an atmosphere detached from reality.

He was even able to break tree trunks from six or seven meters up while standing on the ground!

Come on! Even a Kung Fu expert couldn’t punch a cow through thin air like that!

Con artists in the real world could only break beer bottles from two or three meters away, not six or seven!

Despite his complaints, Lincoln continued to study the tool manuals, crafting table, and building. He happily explored the game as he chopped down trees, mined, and built houses.

Super Tomato, another player who entered the game that night, had a completely different play style.

After discovering the “floating tree” phenomenon, Super Tomato became very enthusiastic and began to research various rules in this new world.

This game was nothing like those produced by Cloud Dream before. In this world, he easily discovered many outrageous rules.

For example: wooden blocks could be piled up all the way to the sky, even forming a sky-high walkway!

“If Newton saw this, would he be so angry he’d come back to life?” Super Tomato complained.

Inspired by this, he began to focus on studying the gravity of this world.

He first tested how high he could fall without getting injured.

After finding the critical point, he tried jumping from a high place and throwing a piece of wood under his feet to catch himself midair.

Failure.

Throwing the wood before hitting the ground?

Still dead.

When the wood was replaced with grass blocks, then thrown─ he survived!

How strange!

“So, is it possible...” Super Tomato jumped from a high place again, filled with an odd sense of anticipation.

At the moment of landing, he poured a bucket of water at his feet.

“Splash.”

Super Tomato stood firmly on the small puddle, completely unharmed – even the impact of the fall had disappeared!

“Hahaha! How absurd!” He found it even more interesting and didn’t bother doing anything else. Instead, he opened the recipe book and began searching for materials, creating new items, and trying to discover more potential uses for them.

On the first night, he spent most of his time on these experiments.

The next day, he started researching the game’s hunger, monster spawning, and breeding mechanics.

Of course, he wasn’t doing all this just for personal interest.

He hadn’t uploaded a video in a while.

Earlier, he hadn’t gone to Dinosaur Island right away because he wanted to interview a female host from Metropolis News, Zhen.

Some of Zhen’s expressions and gestures in the show seemed to “break the fourth wall,” piquing Super Tomato’s curiosity. He planned to interview her and make a video out of it.

Unfortunately, it was just a show effect.

Outside of the show, Zhen was still an ordinary virtual NPC.

The algorithms used by Cloud Dream were incredible, making NPCs seem very lifelike at first glance, almost like real people.

However, if you went up to them and had a serious conversation, you would quickly discover their flaws – at least that was Super Tomato’s impression.

As a result, the video was put on hold.

Now he had finally found a promising topic that he could... make a strategy video about.

As soon as the game was officially released and the confidentiality agreement automatically expired, he planned to publish the video immediately, and it would undoubtedly be a hit!
