Chapter 743: Chapter 704: Selling Love, 10 Euros a Portion
“I heard there are a lot of perverts in your country, did you get infected with that?” Camille Victoria was a bit suspicious.
Queenie shook her head repeatedly: “No way!”
“There are more perverts in Tokyo and Osaka! I grew up in Kyoto, and we Kyoto people are very normal!”
“Really?”
“Yes!” Queenie nodded forcefully, stopping short of swearing an oath.
She dared not tarnish her hometown’s reputation.
“Is that so…”
Camille Victoria fell into thought: She was busy live streaming every day and had no plans for a romantic relationship, besides, there was only one week left until the end of the year, and it would soon be a new year. It seemed like agreeing to it wouldn’t matter?
After all, there are two chances to cancel the contract every year, not using it would be a waste.
The logic was indeed a bit strange, but Camille Victoria was really curious, and finally agreed.
“Lover Contract Reached”
The system prompt box disappeared.
Camille Victoria and Queenie looked at each other for a few moments, and apart from the additional contractual information on their character panels, they didn’t feel any other changes.
“Quick, change back and try.” Camille Victoria urged Queenie to do the next test.
“Oh…” Queenie drank the Gender-Swap Potion again and changed back to female.
The contract did not disappear.
“Next step, next step, let’s go to my house.” Camille Victoria was still thinking about Little Connar possibly coming over and invited Queenie back to her house on the way.
Unfortunately, Little Connar obviously hadn’t had enough fun, and when Camille Victoria went back, she didn’t see her.
With Queenie’s arrival, they successfully verified that the [Lover Contract] still took effect even after leaving Terraria and was not forcibly canceled.
“Is this… a bug?” The first thing Camille Victoria thought of was contacting Lincoln to remind him of this issue.
Queenie sat next to Camille Victoria with a pouting face, watching her send a message to Lincoln.
However, a nervous Camille Victoria received an unexpected reply: “I know, it’s fine, I did it on purpose.”
“?” A question mark slowly appeared above Camille Victoria’s head.
“What’s wrong?” Queenie asked.
“Didn’t you see?” Camille Victoria pointed at the chat box.
Queenie shook her head: “I can only see what you said, not Lincoln’s reply.”
Camille Victoria was somewhat surprised, she had Lincoln’s contact information a long time ago, and they added each other on Cloud Dream account early on. She didn’t realize that being able to contact Lincoln directly at any time was rare among players and users.
Everyone knew that Lincoln’s Cloud Dream account ID was a string of zeros, but when you search for him in the friend adding interface, you won’t find him, not to mention adding him as a friend.
After Camille Victoria repeated Lincoln’s reply to Queenie, she didn’t bother to worry about Lincoln anymore, promptly canceled her Lover Contract with Queenie, and went offline to eat.
She would still be battling on Dinosaur Island tonight, hoping to see Phase Willow!
Queenie also went offline to prepare her dinner.
Unlike Camille Victoria’s fighting spirit, she was a bit melancholic…
*
At the time Camille Victoria paused the live stream, the “bug” she and Queenie found spread at an astonishing speed.
Discontent from overseas users immediately dissipated, and they went to Terraria, intending to take advantage of the bug to form contracts.
As a result, the operation team of “My World” was surprised to find that the sales curve of “My World” suddenly began to soar!
The player activity of “My World” has always been high, and after the Mod Sharing Platform was launched, a variety of mods began to gush out after a short brew, with a constant increase in player numbers and online rates, with no ceiling in sight.
Within the Bluebird Alliance, a large number of small game studios also joined in, converting their originally designed gameplay, or even half-made games, into paid mods. The astonishing number of Cloud Dream users effortlessly brought them far more revenue than before.
Even with the astonishing production capacity of Cloud Dream, there will always be a large number of hardcore players who are always hungry for new content.
As long as the gameplay is novel, and the game is innovative, there is no need to worry about users.
Moreover, with countless young people full of dreams joining the industry, the mod-sharing platform, where there’s almost no cost apart from time, continuously pushes various fun mods created from their bizarre inspirations into the market.
Now that overseas creators have also joined this platform with enthusiasm, there are more than ten new mods launched daily, and even hundreds on some special holidays!
— Of course, high-quality ones are still in the minority.
No matter when players open the platform, there’s always something new they haven’t tried.
This has led to a miraculous increase in the sale curve of “My World” that was originally declining smoothly.
And now, this steadily rising curve suddenly witnesses another sharp ascent.
Meanwhile, the number of new players in Terraria has also surged dramatically.
The operation team quickly discovered that most of these users are from European countries.
Combined with the current hottest topic on the European Internet, it’s evident that their goal is to obtain the Gender-Swap Potion and sign the Lover Contract.
When they realized this, their faces couldn’t help showing unbearable expressions.
Because… it’s not that easy.
The reason why Camille Victoria and Queenie could complete this step effortlessly is that they both have played Terraria. Even if they haven’t defeated the final boss, they at least have saved games, bases, and herb gardens.
Without leaving their doorstep, they simply pick a few herbs and create a potion.
But a large number of European newcomers who have no idea what they’re getting into are impulsively stepping into the tortuous world of Terraria. Their goal is to get a Gender-Swap Potion, but they would face hellish challenges!
First, they have to find Sun Grass in the forest – the easiest step as it’s not far from their doorstep.
Then, they need to venture into the desert to find the Shimmering Chrysanthemum and dig sand to make glass bottles with a furnace. Finally, they fill them with water.
This is still simple.
Next, they will begin a long journey.
They’ll search for Chilling Thorn in snow and ice.
They’ll venture into the dangerous Corruption or Crimson lands to find Death Grass while enduring attacks from terrifying monsters that make people cringe.
In the underground forest, they will confront various underground creatures while searching for the Shining Root.
They’ll search for Moonlight Grass in the jungle – and if they were unfortunate enough not to find it on the surface, they have to venture into the underground jungle to battle giant bees, man-eating vines, jungle bats, spiked slimes, and other revolting enemies.
Oh, right, there’re also various hidden, powerful, and sinister underground traps.
Players unprepared for these tasks will undoubtedly be tormented to the point of mental breakdown!
If you manage to collect all the necessary materials, you’ll face the final challenge—
A descent to the very bottom of the world – Hell.
You’ll search for the Flame Flower among ashes in a sea of lava while enduring one-hit-kill enemy attacks.
A complete novice would have to die dozens of times and spend more than ten hours to get a Gender-Swap Potion, even in the easiest Travel Mode!
After all, the Travel Mode created by Lincoln is not as user-friendly as the original version, which even had an invincibility option.
In Lincoln’s view, LGBT and such have become almost a cultural custom in the West.
Out of respect for local customs, he intentionally left a loophole in Terraria for the Lover Contract.
But if you want to use this loophole, prove that your love is strong first!
Otherwise, if you can’t even overcome this little test, how can you claim to be true love?
…
Lincoln had grand plans, but the development of events deviated significantly from them.
He seriously underestimated the ability of domestic players to seize business opportunities–
Before Camille Victoria finished her meal, Daxia players had already started “exporting” Gender-Swap Potions to European and American users on a large scale.
They even came up with a slogan for it–
[Selling love! 10 euros a piece!]
