Chapter 373 The army attacks

"Nolan!" An old shareholder with white beard and hair but strong energy interrupted Nolan. He frowned and said, "I know you have something to say, but you listen to me first!"

Nolan choked.

He curled his lips inwardly, and then replied with a smile on his face: "Then you say it first!"

This old shareholder is the core shareholder of IOI, holding more than 30% of the shares. He plays a pivotal role in IOI. He is also the financial sponsor Nolan is targeting at this shareholder meeting.

"Nolan, "Oasis" is just a game." The old shareholder had a calm and confident temperament. He said earnestly, "Although Halliday is a genius, he is only a game producer. If the battleships in his game are Before he can move it into reality, he must first understand it, right?"

"But does he understand?"

Nolan was silent.

Frankly speaking, he didn't know whether Halliday understood it, but he knew Halliday best, and he had a mysterious trust in Halliday.

"Oasis" is a miracle in itself!

Since Halliday has already created a miracle, what is the impossibility of creating another miracle?

Moreover, the artificial intelligence in "Oasis" is extremely advanced. Couldn't it be that the NPC scientists in "Oasis" developed warships that are also applicable in reality based on the existing scientific knowledge of mankind?

That's what he thought anyway.

The Battleship's notes say "it seems to be possible in reality," and that's probably the case!

It has been researched in the game, but it has not been applied in reality.

"Nolan, you held the shareholders' meeting because you want to ask us for money, but even if you draw a pie, you should at least draw a pie that we think we can eat." The old shareholder spoke very slowly, but said The words came out and won the approval of other shareholders, "If you think the technology on that battleship can be used in reality, then just get something from that battleship and study it. Once it is confirmed to be useful, we will never be stingy. .”

Other shareholders nodded frequently when the old shareholder spoke, expressing their support for the old shareholder.

Nolan took a deep breath.

"good!"

He clenched his fists, thinking that with IOI's current size, it could launch an attack on the mysterious warship without new capital injection.

but

"Then let's put this matter aside for now and let's discuss another matter, about the prospect of product placement in Oasis."

After the shareholders meeting, all contract centers of IOI received a message.

"All personnel are equipped for battle. The target is the dead planet. The mission is to 'get whatever you want from the battleship'!"

The dead planet has become a forbidden land.

The coalition government's warships sailed into the Death Planet and did not leave. The warships bloodbathed the entire Death Planet and monopolized the artifacts produced by the Death Race.

No player takes anything away from deathmatch, and bad luck can cost you your life.

Faced with this strange phenomenon, players have speculated that "Oasis" may update a major plot on the Death Planet, so many people gathered near the Death Planet and paid close attention to the subsequent development.

But instead of waiting for the version update of "Oasis", they waited for the notorious IOI army.

IOI established the largest studio in "Oasis".

They reserve major resource points on a daily basis, and ordinary players have to pay them by the hour if they want to enter.

They even monopolized a type of high-level equipment-making material, pushing the market price to the ceiling, leaving ordinary players with no chance to touch it, not to mention other things such as selling gold coins, manipulating prices, and grabbing BOSS. .

Players near the Death Planet saw IOI members appearing in large numbers and cursed one after another.

However, many of these IOI members have signed "prostitution contracts" with IOI, which require them to wear handcuffs and shackles when working. They can only act according to Nolan's orders, but in fact they have no control over them.

"IOI is here! It seems that the Death Planet is really going to have a version update!"

"What a disgusting guy!"

"If I can find the easter egg, the first thing I will do is to block all IOI accounts and tell IOI to get out of "Oasis"!"

IOI members have long been accustomed to being insulted by others. They check their own equipment and confirm that there are no problems before reporting to their managers, who then report to higher-level managers.

Finally, the news reached Nolan's ears.

"Are you all ready?" Nolan's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, "Then let's get started!"

He will soon know whether the technology on the battleship can be used in reality, and the first batch of results will be 100% his.

When shareholders refused to fund the operation, Nolan registered a shell company for himself.

As a shell company, he served him once from players who bought IOI at a low price, so IOI was only the executor this time, and he, Nolan, was the beneficiary.

"This battleship is definitely not easy to chew. The first time you bite off the most things, the old guy will definitely regret it!" Nolan said bitterly.

The number of IOI members dispatched this time exceeded 50,000, which is equivalent to the strength of an army. They possess a lot of high-end equipment, and even a few low-level artifacts.

Many of the artifacts are conceptual weapons with huge destructive power.

Nolan believes that no matter how powerful the battleship on the Death Planet is, he will definitely be able to take it down!

If you can't do it, someone must be slacking off!

The members of IOI were fully armed, and other players were not blind, so they all saw that IOI was here to fight.

The coalition government also knows about this.

"IOI is the second largest game company in the world after the parent company of "Oasis". It has a huge influence in the game industry and can even affect the election results of governments in various countries to a certain extent."

"They have a lot of high-level equipment, including some unreasonable artifacts. They are likely to cause damage to our warships, but they are unlikely to be shot down."

"Are we going to evacuate temporarily?"

After some thought, the head of the coalition government decided to stay and give IOI a hard time.

Due to the special dangers of the "Ready Player One" universe, the coalition government's super battleship on the dead planet does not have its own members. They are all members of the "Dune" Space and Astronautics Guild.

Even if IOI shoots down the battleship, it will not have any impact on the coalition government, because the coalition government can build as many such battleships as it wants, and the members of the Aerospace Guild have also signed exemption agreements.

After this battle, the coalition government can understand the destructive power of "Oasis" players and decide on the next plan.

If IOI shoots down the battleship easily, the coalition government will have to treat the players of "Oasis" carefully. On the contrary, the coalition government will take more radical measures in "Oasis".
