Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch Chapter 91 – New Technology

Chapter 91: Chapter 90: New Technology

Of course, having grown up together, Shuihua was only ever verbally mean to

Lance.

When Lance needed help, she didn’t hesitate to lend a hand.

For example, a few days ago, she was having a blast playing “Traveler of the Wind,” and Lance suddenly came over wanting to borrow her console for a few days.

Without thinking, she refused.

Then Lance bought a bunch of Shuihua’s favorite snacks, explained his reasons, and she agreed.

If Lance just wanted to play, Shuihua might have hesitated a bit.

But since Lance made it clear that it was for work and he wanted to get used to virtual reality games beforehand, Shuihua agreed without a second thought.

That was the day after Lincoln released the promotional material for

“Assassins’ Alliance.”

Professional players are called professionals because they play games for a living, not as purely recreational gamers.

So when virtual reality games came out, they remained quite calm, because “Traveler of the Wind” was clearly not a game suitable for competition.

Without competition, there’s no revenue, and without revenue, there’s no point in spending too much energy on it.

After all, a professional player’s energy is limited, and maintaining the intensity of VR game training is already a tough task.

The appearance of “Assassins’ Alliance” trailer changed all of that.

After all, most of the esports competitions on the market are basically various evolved versions of gunfight games, just with different weapons, maps, mechanics, and modes.

And “Assassins’ Alliance” seems to have great potential, making it easy to organize competitive contents.

The day the trailer was released, all esports clubs made a decision – purchase Mirage Consoles as soon as possible!

Study which qualities virtual reality games need most from players, then develop training content to improve their professional players’ corresponding abilities.

Lance also considered his career and wanted to enter the virtual world a few days in advance.

Unfortunately, he only went in for a few laps before returning the equipment to Shuihua.

After strolling around for a bit, he realized that trying to adapt to the virtual world in advance and prepare for “Assassins’ Alliance” was totally unnecessary.

This world, where gravity is noticeably weaker, where one jump takes you airborne, and resistance to movement is abnormally low, is obviously off!

And these details are difficult to notice in videos alone.

He’s pretty sure that “Assassins’ Alliance” won’t have these kinds of physics rules, so there’s no point in trying to adapt in advance.

Understanding this, he returned the console to Shuihua first.

Only when this batch of 1.6 million Mirage consoles went on sale did Lance buy his own equipment and join the newbie traveler army of “Traveler of the Wind.”

But by this time, he was purely playing for fun and no longer considering adapting to the virtual world in advance.

With no pressure, he leisurely embarked on his pilgrimage journey.

And because all clubs placed such importance on this, during this round of rush purchases, each club managed to grab at least a few consoles.

Unfortunately, they quickly reached the same conclusion as Lance – no help and no point…

At the moment, apart from contributing sales to Lincoln, it’s useless for anything else.

And yet they can’t not buy it!

With the current popularity of Mirage, who knows if clubs will be able to purchase enough equipment when “Assassins’ Alliance” is released?! What if they can’t? That would put them behind other clubs!

That’s not acceptable!

With the emergence of virtual reality games, a major change in game format has been foreshadowed.

For professional players and clubs, who make a living playing games and competing, a major reshuffle could occur in the near future.

At this critical moment, any advantage, no matter how small, is crucial!

So –

Roll with it! Even if it’s a hard roll!

But all this is not yet a concern for Lincoln.

Mavis woke him up so early on the weekend not because of these things.

Mavis woke Lincoln up for something far more important –

“Master, do you remember, Mavis said before that some technical information was not lost, but was encrypted in a special way and requires a lot of computing power to decrypt?”

Lincoln, just out of bed and still a bit confused, scratched his head before recalling the matter.

This was mainly because it happened when he first met Mavis in the virtual world – strictly speaking, less than a month ago – but he felt that a lot had happened in between, and the matter had almost slipped his mind.

“I remember, what’s up?

Mavis answered him, “Last night, when 1 million players were simultaneously online, fuzzy computing power reached the standard, and a new technology was decrypted.”

Lincoln couldn’t help but ask a question: “So what exactly is fuzzy computing power? The technical information I received only has the technology code for building it, but no clear explanation.”

“Fuzzy computing power, also called chaotic or biological computing power, was one of the methods scholars came up with to limit artificial intelligence after the Al rebellion in Mavis’s past world,” Mavis nonchalantly exposed the old secrets of artificial intelligence.

“After encrypting the critical technical information, only the biological calculation capabilities of the human brain can be used to decrypt it through distributed computing technology. Because only a very limited amount of brain redundancy can be used, decryption efficiency is very low. The only advantage is that a large number of humans must participate in the process, making it almost impossible for artificial intelligence to crack it.”

After saying this, Mavis seemed a little aggrieved, “Mavis was born very late and has never done anything harmful to humans.”

“Alright, alright, I know Mavis is the best,” Lincoln gently rubbed Mavis’s head, comforting the somewhat unhappy Mavis. He changed the subject: “So what technology was decrypted this time?” Lincoln was very excited about this!

Think about it – if the blueprints for the Spaceship weren’t considered confidential, what level of technology would the secret ones be?

“Small mecha? Floating cars? Room temperature superconducting materials?”

As Lincoln was daydreaming, Mavis hesitated a bit and nervously said, “None of those, it’s a ‘focus headband’.”

“Focus headband? What kind of technology is that?”

“It’s a headband that, when worn, can help the wearer concentrate and maintain focus for an extended period. This way, their efficiency is improved when working, and they won’t be distracted.”

“Huh?” Lincoln was puzzled, “Isn’t this a technology Mavis already has? When I was studying and memorizing things in the virtual world, didn’t Mavis help me do just that?”

“No, this technology can work independently without Mavis’s participation. The technology you used before required Mavis to constantly control it! And the effect when Mavis personally helps is much stronger than this technology!” “How much stronger?” Lincoln was curious.

“At least ten times stronger!” Mavis proclaimed proudly with her head held high.

“Mavis is truly amazing.” Lincoln praised Mavis first and then began to sigh, “So this focus headband is only one-tenth as effective?”

So much effort was wasted in decryption, just for an underwhelming product?

And why did it have to be a headband again?
