It was the end of March in the Imperial Capital, and the weather was getting warmer.
Although the Imperial Capital didn't have spring and autumn like most of the northern cities in China, there were still a few days a year where they could experience the warmth of spring and the blooming flowers.
Of course, it was windy.
Elf World was about to be released, and for the players, it was spring, and they had another reason to go out.
Moreover, the good thing about this season was that the major markets in China, Japan, Korea, America, and Europe were all at a good time to go out. The major countries and regions in the southern hemisphere were entering autumn, and the weather was fine. Of course, the areas near the equator … It was hot all year round, so it didn't matter.
After a period of promotion and warm-up, many players who bought the Matrix Glasses couldn't wait to experience the brand new MR game.
Since the release of the smart glasses, this new wearable smart product had become a craze around the world. On one hand, it was suitable for more and more people, and on the other hand, there were more and more applications and developments for the device.
Walking on the streets of major cities, especially shopping malls and areas with more young people, there were people wearing smart glasses everywhere. Most of them were young people, but there were also many children and middle-aged people wearing smart glasses.
Under the influence of the Matrix Glasses, most smart glasses had their camera and livestream functions turned off, and the camera on the glasses was only used to collect information in the players' field of vision.
Therefore, the people who didn't wear smart glasses were no longer worried that the smart glasses would invade their privacy. Most people would be more tolerant when they saw people wearing smart glasses trying to strike up a conversation.
Moreover, the smart glasses also gave strangers an excuse to strike up a conversation. While waiting for the bus, resting in the mall, or waiting in line for shopping, some of the players wearing smart glasses could play a simple MR game with each other to kill time.
No matter what, this new smart device was gradually entering people's lives, just like how smartphones were popularized, it made people's lives more convenient and changed people's lifestyles.
…
Thunderbolt Entertainment's new headquarters.
The overall structure of the building had been completely formed. From a distance, the huge sphere and the surrounding lightning structure could be clearly seen. However, this was still a construction zone, so they couldn't enter.
However, there were many people gathered on the streets.
They were all wearing the Matrix Glasses, chatting as they waited for something.
Lin Xue was shocked to see so many people after getting out of the taxi.
"Wow, why are there so many people! Are these players waiting for the World of Elves to be released? Eh, isn't this Zou Zhuo? He's actually here too! "
Lin Xue sneaked up behind Little Fatty and poked him in the waist.
"Wow!" Zou Zhuo was shocked. He turned around and saw Lin Xue looking at him with a smirk.
"You scared me! Why are you here? "Zou Zhuo asked.
Lin Xue chuckled. "Aren't you asking the obvious? The new headquarters hasn't been renovated yet. Why are you here? Of course, it's to catch the elves!"
Zou Zhuo looked at the Matrix glasses Lin Xue was wearing. Yes, it was definitely the developer version.
"You're also streaming?" Lin Xue asked.
Zou Zhuo nodded. "Looks like we're going to have a battle between hosts today! In short … I hope to catch a baby red dragon here! What do you want to catch? "
Lin Xue said, "Uh … a peashooter, or a pixelbird is fine too. I want an elf that has a different style from everyone else!"
Zou Zhuo: "… Okay, let's do our best!"
Although the Matrix glasses on sale didn't have a camera function, some famous hosts could still get the developer version. Of course, these cameras had to be strictly limited to the user's identity. Only famous hosts with great influence could get their hands on them for special livestreams.
For example … streaming the World of Elves.
This type of MR game also required hosts to do livestreams to promote it. However, due to the special equipment, the livestream was mixed with the real world. Therefore, only a few famous hosts had the right to do so.
The reason why so many people gathered at Thunderbolt Entertainment's new headquarters was because they received some insider information. It was that certain specific locations would spawn more rare elves, and the chances of rare items appearing would increase.
As for what specific locations were?
Obviously, Thunderbolt Entertainment's new headquarters was one of those special locations …
Although they didn't know if there would actually be rare elves, coming here to catch elves at the same time as the World of Elves was released was definitely the right choice.
"So, there's only ten minutes before the official release. I heard that this game is on the same server across the world. This means that if you have a really good elf, you can go play in the local dojos when you go overseas and fight with a group of foreign friends. "Lin Xue chatted awkwardly with the comments as she waited for the server to open.
The game's client was already available for download. Therefore, the players who were interested had already downloaded the client and were waiting to play the game as soon as the server opened.
At this moment, Lin Xue saw a little squirrel-like creature with brown fur and rabbit ears flashing past in her field of vision.
"Huh? Am I seeing things? "
Lin Xue thought she was seeing things, but the comments reminded her that she wasn't seeing things. Something had just flashed by.
"Look, the sky!"
Someone yelled. Lin Xue looked up to see a huge three-dimensional countdown timer in the sky.
It wasn't just Thunderbolt Entertainment's new headquarters. Landmarks all over the world had countdown timer on them as well. Players could see it as long as they looked up.
Of course, the countdown timer was displayed on the players' glasses using MR technology. The angle of the countdown timer was determined based on the player's position.
As for the time difference in different parts of the world … Whatever. Since most countries used time zones, it was fine as long as it was on the dot.
It wasn't just the countdown timer. Many players noticed that there were all sorts of elves appearing nearby.
These elves were very scattered, it was possible to see one every few hundred meters. They were also hiding behind various buildings, or they would disappear as soon as the players saw them.
"Wow, that's interesting! There's another one! There's one there too! "
Lin Xue was like a kid who saw a new toy.
