Chapter 152: Bidding War

This time, it seems, the bidding war has really begun.

Bidding, after all, no matter how it is these years, it is also a capital market, emphasizing free competition, of course, it is impossible to invite everyone to drink a few cups of tea, and fan out the horse beeda, and it is decided to win the bid.

This is the most difficult task of the Holy Grail Bidding War.

The company has to deal with more than just the winner of the last Holy Grail!

And the entire heavens, all the players who are interested in the Holy Grail!

There may even be some bidders who are not really interested in the Holy Grail itself, but are just here to join in the fun, raise the price, find an opportunity to test the latest weapon system, and after showing their hands, force other bidders to cede their interests and buy them to 'exit the competition'.

Therefore, some subsidiaries really can't finish 140 trillion in ten years, and some subsidiaries still have to spend 20 trillion yuan to unify the world.

So this time, at the beginning of the big plan, there was an unknown force to assassinate the acting manager of 0791, which was simply expected in TheM's opinion, and it was a completely normal rhythm.

When you come up as a company, you will allocate 10 trillion yuan, is it a joke?

Some money is earned with a life, and it is not good to spend it without a life!

And naturally, since Li Pan himself has been caught......

"Boss, the Holy Grail is missing, it can be confirmed that at the same time as the nuclear explosion, there was a big explosion near the place where the Holy Grail was delivered as agreed with Emilia, and all the cameras in the vicinity were destroyed, and the NCPA reported that it was a gas explosion, and now the Holy Grail may be buried under the rubble, or it may have disappeared."

Spider. Eighteen reported in the office, and at the same time played the colorful face man three times five divided by two, jumped out of the car to overturn Li Pan, opened his braincase, and then suddenly had a convulsion, dug out half of his brain, and then kicked Li Pan to blow himself up.

"As for the assassin this time, I have repeatedly investigated the data, the company's spy satellites, security systems and traffic system monitoring, none of which have detected the stealth shuttle, and the customs has no similar prosthetic and model import registration records, it is estimated that it was smuggled in and secretly assembled.

As for the suicide of the assassin in the end, it is likely that it was invaded by other hackers, that is, at least two forces participated in and clashed at the scene of the assassination. It's just that the other party did not invade our company's ICE, and I can't find out the root of the other party. ”

Li Pan didn't care about being embarrassed in front of all the employees of the company, and releasing the battle record would at least let the rest of the company have a defense.

After all, the combat power of the colorful noodle man on the opposite side is at least hundreds of millions, just looking at the power of the cannon with a hand, the combat effectiveness is conservative and the level of a single-person hand-tore cruiser, even if a single shot is not fired, just driving AVNDS into the crowd can kill all the employees of the company.

Next, I don't know that the fire mist also spoke,

"Boss, Koga replied, all the managers of Emilia's team have been arrested, most of them were taken away directly by the night knights, and Emilia's illegal prosthetic body is also missing, and hackers from other forces are secretly assisting and slipped away from under Koga's nose."

"Oh, so Lao Tzu's big plan just started, and he was beaten by someone, the Holy Grail is gone, the trading partner is gone, and even the money is gone, right, so what is the good news, let's talk about it together."

The fax machine is buzzing.

Ah Qi looked at the documents from the fax machine method,

"Boss, the company's payment to Panlong Construction has been frozen, and the Seventh Division of the Security Bureau has filed an application for review of the PMC Employment Contract, suspecting that the company is suspected of illegal money laundering, and applying to the Tax Bureau to audit Panlong Construction."

"Wo Muddy β€”β€”!"

Li Pan lifted the desk and threw it down from the window.

The crowd was silent.

Li Pan exhaled deeply, controlled his emotions, and pointed to the projected color-faced person,

"First by one, first the Holy Grail and then the money, but first of all, we have to find a way to deal with the competitors.

Eighteen, this AVNDS, can you get rid of it? ”

Spider. eighteen

"It's difficult, boss, this defense system is the top, the whole process is connected to QVN, this kind of prosthetic body should also have a built-in subnet, you have to hack the ICE of the head office to usurp control, and you have to do it, you have to know which company's product it is......"

Li Pan, "Damn, isn't that just unsolvable?" What a fart? He carried the chalice in his arms, and who could pull it out? ”

At this time, Yamazaki raised his hand,

"I've heard from a friend that there aren't many companies that can do AVNDS, and because nanobugs are very expensive and have a high technical content, they are generally only matched with the highest-grade medical insurance packages to provide rental business.

Moreover, in order to avoid mutual damage between nanoworms, there is an internal agreement between enterprises, and the AVNDS system will not take effect with each other, and the defense effect is only for non-exclusive users. This will boost sales. ”

Li Pan's eyes lit up,

"Privileges for customers! Good! Give back to others in their own way! Buy! A set for all members! Buy the most expensive one, don't save the company this money!

That removes the interference of the defense system, and this kind of prosthetic person is single-handed, who has confidence? ”

Everyone shook their heads directly.

Demon Sealing Kotaro said, "It's definitely not okay to hit head-on, this prosthetic body is too fast, and I can't be sure of winning if I lift the seal." And there is a time limit for our transformation, and their bionic bodies are at least nuclear-powered, and they have been fighting tirelessly for hundreds or thousands of years. ”

Ashiya Shikiki held his chin and repeatedly replayed the image of the other party violently raising his hand and emitting high-energy rays towards the building.

"My Shikigami must be in the field of vision to exert all his strength and keep up with the opponent's rhythm, but the opponent's attack is too far away, and I can't stop it this time......"

Li Pan was not surprised, and nodded,

"Also, people still have built-in nuclear bombs, and if they can't hit it, they will explode themselves, so they can only snipe from a distance...... Okay, I'll get an expert.

In this way, Kiriko, you coordinate with the Koga people and continue to look for the Holy Grail and Emilia.

Kotaro and Shikiki work as a support team, and when they find out Emilia, they catch her as soon as possible. But if it's someone else who steals the Holy Grail, follow for the time being, and don't act rashly.

Yamazaki, you communicate with the finance and give us all the medical insurance and AVNDS.

Ah Qi, continue to call people, tell the company's reinforcements not to grind, the eyebrows are burning! Hurry down and help!

Eighteen, give me the address of the illegal cloning base over there at 0213. Spider ran with me and cleared this branch.

In addition, the company remembers to keep people! Communicate at any time, and once you find that someone has lost contact, you will immediately file back! ”

Although the big plan is on the verge of collapse, Li Pan really doesn't have time to fight the company war for the time being, after all, his current combat effectiveness, that is about equal to a few werewolves, can be the king and hegemon in the night, and joining the company war is to go up to deliver food, and you have to get two silver keys first.

By the way, the staff was arranged to collect the wreckage of the 081007, and by the way, the two sets of formal clothes that escaped were also recovered. They escaped quite far, and they didn't burn it, but they were all hit by a nuclear bomb at close range, and they needed to be repaired urgently.

But Li Pan doesn't have a silver key in his hand now, let alone sewing and mending the formal suit, he can't use any handkerchiefs and sword pills, and now he has to hurry up and clear a few small tasks first, and then enhance his own strength.

So with the spider. Eighteen and a group of company drones, Li Pan put on SBS armor and flew straight to the seashore in an armored floating vehicle.

There's the collaboration on the 0213 side, and the upgraded eighteen for comprehensive reconnaissance, and this task is basically the kind of task monster that fights a few tasks from point A to point B, and it's not difficult.

The target is OHSUMI Bio Science Laboratory, a private research institute and institute corporation and the main target of this action is Dr. Ryohei Osumi, Professor at the Faculty of Biological Sciences, New Tokyo University.

The institute is also a joint project with Shintodai University, focusing on topics such as how to restore the marine ecology of 0791 in the currently highly polluted Pacific Ocean.

According to 0213's shared 007 email address, the other party corresponded with the Osumi Research Institute and entrusted the other party to make illegal clones of temporary workers one by one.

What? How is it the University of New Tokyo again?

This is actually quite normal, after all, there are so many top universities in 0791, you look at what happened to Huang Dahe, you will know that Ye's Institute of Technology has an improper school spirit and academic misconduct, it is a place where rich families are mentally retarded, and the pit is the children of poor families who have no money, no real status, and can only live on scholarships.

In contrast, as the face and famous family of 0791, New Dongda does have a certain level of academic ability and scientific research. It can be said that once Gao Tianyuan was able to step into the threshold of the committee with half a foot, and it was the professors of the New University of Tokyo who forcibly carried him in.

It's just that I heard Orange mention that the threshold of New East University is too high, either the son of a professor or the daughter of a doctor, the campus is full of IQ coordinated gene people, the competition is more intense, the scholarship is more difficult to get, and even Huang Dahe's level is not fully sure, so I retreated to the second place, and went to Yeshi Institute of Technology, in addition to the annual scholarship, the job after graduation is allotted.

Li Pan didn't have to follow in person for this operation, just stay in the floating car, and directly said, "Authorize the operation to begin!" ", Spider. Eighteen yelled, "Little one, follow me!" He jumped from the sky with a large number of drones.

The next step is basically the standard assault template, the optical stealth drone swarm first occupies the nearby monitoring and network center, uses virtual machines to take the Osumi Biotechnology Research Institute offline from the local area network, and then hacks into the subsystem, unlocks the access control, and drills into the laboratory from all corners of the underground waste ditch exhaust pipe in all directions.

The raid went fairly smoothly, including Ryohei Osumi himself, the researchers in the laboratory were arrested, and no one resisted, after all, they were all research animals who came to work for the professor, and they just had an internship experience, and when they saw a large number of killing machines, of course, they raised their hands and surrendered, and obediently opened the database for Eighteen to check.

"Boss, the leaked experimental data of 0213007 has been recovered, three clonal prostheses have been ordered and made, and in addition to the temporary workers used one by one, the other two have also been recovered. However, there is no guarantee that the target does not have a backup of the technology blueprint and genetic spectrum. ”

Through the live broadcast, Li Pan saw that Dr. Osumi was lying in the biological cabin, and he was also linked to QVN, and the main consciousness should have been uploaded to other prostheses.

"Where's the other guy right now?"

Spider. Eighteen crackled and knocked for a while with two manipulators,

"I am attending an academic seminar at the SEC in Europa. There is an ICE block on the SEC's intranet, and forcibly pulling him out will trigger an alarm. ”

0791 Earth's Europa has long been reduced to ruins by nuclear bombs, which naturally refers to Europa's space city.

"Don't worry, just wait a minute, wash off the action records, empty the laboratory, and move back to the company with the cabin."

Li Pan brought the prosthetic test data to look at the situation, the prosthetic body of the temporary worker one by one is not so much a fish man, in fact, it is more similar to the modified body of the ichthyosaur of the plesiosaur, which is indeed quite strong underwater, the physical strength is extremely high, it can resist the water pressure at a depth of thousands of meters, and the epidermis is specially treated, and there is a layer of molecular-level corrosive materials, which can exist in the Pacific Ocean polluted by nuclear radiation and industrial wastewater today.

It's just that the fishmen in the 0213 world also have some other superpowers, such as turning the fish bones on their bodies into weapons, using high-pressure water cannons, telekinesis, and controlling sea creatures. And these effects, 0791's bionic fish-man has not been fully successful.

But I have to say,This Dr. Osumi does have some ability.,The technology of another world is not something that a cat or dog can copy with a technical blueprint.,And look at the other party's qualifications are indeed quite old.,In fact, it's not limited to marine life.,A broader category of genetic enhancement,He has papers on bionic research.。

If you look further, Dr. Osumi's mentor and mentor's mentor are also academicians of Takamagahara's Institute of Biology. It can be seen that it is also a long-standing learning valve.

But it's still the same sentence, Gao Tianyuan was defeated, and the Night Clan itself is not only finance, but also biotechnology, and the blood prosthetic body is a secret in the secret of the Night Clan Group, of course not, and there is no need to invite these local professors to join in the biological science research, so far only from the local to recruit some science and engineering, mathematics, physics, electronics, engineering talents.

So Dr. Osumi is also unemployed, and he can only study fish, shrimp, and seaweed all day long, or customize clones for rich people. Judging from the other party's email records, he didn't leak the information to anyone else, just as some cosmic monopoly was full of food and wanted to swim in the sewage and wastewater nucleus water of the Pacific Ocean.

Li Pan waved his pen,

"You can use it, tie them all back and make an army of androids for the company!"

"Okay!"

So the eighteenth commanded the small ones to use nanowire to tie up a group of doctoral teaching assistants and research animals, and carry them into the cabin and take them away.

"Boss, someone is staring at us, do you want to them?"

Seeing the message from the eighteenth, it was clear that there was

"Scouts from other houses, don't worry, you can also arrange for the drone to stare back and find out which person it is."

"Okay."

It's definitely not just the color noodle people, the companies in the committee will take action.

Yes, definitely.

Because many times, the game of fighting for power and profit is not just a matter of interest, but a question of showing power and respect.

If your sense of existence is too low, you play big chess all day long, and you will only be deflated and condemned when you encounter something, then no matter what the data on paper is, it will only be a joke in the eyes of others.

When it's really time to form a gang and fight a team battle, no one will stand on your side, after all, you say that you have a big chess, but you can't get up once, so who believes that you can rise at the last moment?

Therefore, Li Pan can also be sure that no matter whether other forces grab the Holy Grail or not, as long as they have the opportunity, they will definitely want to beat him up as the general manager to show their strength.

It can't go on like this! We must quickly raise our strength to the point where we can participate in the war, at least not like a rice cake that anyone can hammer......

"Boss! The Holy Grail has appeared! ”

What! So fast?!

It was so fast that someone hacked into NCHK and broadcast a three-minute video of the Holy Grail on the evening livestream. And guess what, the Holy Grail is in the opera house.

At the same time, the bounty hunter system was also bid at a sky-high price, 100 million! Get that cup, 100 million!

The group of cyberpunks who had never seen the world immediately went crazy, and the baboons in heat drove to the city like baboons.

Good guy, I'm afraid the world won't be chaotic, right......

Li Pan hurriedly contacted Wangshan.

Wangshan, "Good fellow! You only pay us one - million! A total of 1 million!! ”

Li Pan, "...... My fault, help me take the Holy Grail, a hundred million equal shares. ”

Wangshan, "Lao Tzu doesn't help you, it's also divided!" ”

Li Pan gritted his teeth, "100 million per person!" I'll give you a deposit of 50 million each! Money laundering! Pay the balance in hand, and have a holy grail to give cash! No matter how many people are left, 400 million is a lot for you to share equally! ”

Wangshan also simply, "Deal!" ”

Li Pan reminded, "This opponent must use at least seventh-level bullets!" ”

"Understand!"

Wangshan hung up the communication.

Li Pan gritted his teeth, there was no way, although he hadn't had time to strengthen his prosthetic body to prepare for battle, but now he had to go.

After all, the Holy Grail War was the he made, and he made the pot himself and carried it himself!

By the time the float arrived, the security system monitoring near the theater had been shut down by unknown forces, and several surrounding urban areas had been turned into purgatory.

In addition to the bounty hunters and cyberpunks who happen to be nearby, there are also the three forces that happen to be holding the Sopranos Tournament, and there are also many auxiliary police officers in NCPA who have teamed up to join the battle royale.

Relying on the company's five-level A floating car, Li Pan rushed all the way to the main entrance steps, and the floating car was knocked upside down by a five-level rocket.

So Li Pan directly asked the company's armored floating vehicle to go back to pick up reinforcements, and by the way, he handed over the task and rode on the spider himself. Eighteen airborne assaults.

Rao has a strong physique in the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, as well as eighteen planned dodge paths, and the spider's own point defense system to intercept armor-piercing bullets, Li Pan was still poured by the barrage poured from all directions in front and back.

The bulletproof armor all over the body was shattered, the SBS synthetic fibers on the body were also shattered, and the skin camouflage was torn apart, revealing layers of blood-glittering scales on the body.

But fortunately, he was so stunned that he rushed hard, and he really forced him into the theater. The density of all kinds of bullets and rain suddenly lightened, at least the outside level was passed.

"Eighteen, I've got my back in hand, cover me."

"Leave it to my boss!"

The spider ding-clanged kicked off the broken arms and legs, and shrunk into a dog-sized light mode, stealthily following behind.

Li Pan cautiously opened the way ahead, it was not that there was no one to defend in this theater, but that the guards were dead. Judging by the stump severed arms and human fragments scattered around, at least one platoon of Nightkin guards was torn to shreds by something.

Obviously, Li Pan and their luck are not bad, and there are other players on the front foot who have killed all the way in, but they have emptied the defense.

So following the bloodstains all over the ground, Li Pan arrived all the way to the Grand Theater and kicked open the door.

"Don't move!"

Li Pan saw at a glance the Holy Grail that was placed in the center of the theater, and next to the Holy Grail, there was a middle-aged man with a dead face and a black robe, standing in the center of the stage.

He glanced up again.

Prince Cornelius of the Night Clan, escorted by a team of nocturnal knights such as K, sat in the VIP seat.

In the audience, there were several figures who had obscured their faces with optical camouflage, apparently all of whom had come to participate in the bidding.

The man in the robe looked at Li Pan expressionlessly, and stretched his hand,

"Now that we're almost all there, then, everyone, look, Blood Saint ......"

Li Pan had to shoot "ping pong", and a shuttle bullet hit the man's head, which was bounced off by the activated defense system. The audience looked at each other in unison.

The man's face was expressionless,

"The Holy Grail Bidding War, start now, as the arbiter, let me explain the rules for this time......"

β€œRPG!” "Boom!"

Li Pan swooped a rocket, blew up the stage on the spot, and then threw all kinds of flash bombs, shock bombs, and incendiary bombs in his hand, crackling and blasting the theater into a sea of fire.

The man couldn't hold back either, and waved his hand violently, "Silence! ”

In an instant, the hairs on Li Pan's neck stood upside down, and a dodge flew out, and the place where he was standing just now exploded, as if he had been hit by an invisible hammer, and most of the theater building collapsed.

The man said expressionlessly,

"I, the arbiter of Dirac, have been entrusted by Prince Cornelius, the ruler of the Night, to act as the notary ...... of this Holy Grail bid"

β€œEMP!”

Li Pan threw out two electromagnetic grenades, smashed three inches in front of his crotch and bounced away, bang! Suddenly, the electromagnetic pulse swept across the audience, and the colored magnetoelectric shock wave swept out like a wave, loading on the other spectators, like a storm crashing on the reef and being blocked by a light curtain.

The man was also on fire,

"TheM Manager! If you interfere with the normal process of bidding, I will deprive you of your participation in this round of bidding......"

"What kind of green onion are you, dog!!"

Li Pan launched a charge, holding a shotgun and slamming it at the man, causing sawdust to splash smoke and dust on the stage.

"The scum of the next three indiscriminate uninteresting! No matter how care, you dare to get involved in Lao Tzu's things, see if I don't your dad! You die! Finish! I said it! And you dogs! If you dare to steal Lao Tzu's things, I will step on a horse and kill your whole family! ”

Prince Cornelius, "Ahem. ”

Li Pan, "Cough up a fart, I didn't mean you!" Eat me big RPG! ”

The man in the robe slapped angrily and stared at the rockets that were blasting into his crotch.

"Enough! TheM! Out! I hereby declare! Three days later, except for TheM company, whoever gets the Holy Grail is ......"

Then Li Pan suddenly threw the gun, threw down a bunch of flashbangs, turned around and ran.

The man in the robe was stunned, and then he saw that he was knocked away by the impact of the explosion, and he rolled to the Holy Grail under the stage at some point, as if he had long legs, he jumped up, jumped out of the smoke and dust, and escaped from the theater with Li Pan.

The audience in the VIP seats let out a chuckle.

K covered his face.

Prince Cornelius coughed twice, "Ahem, then, let's take it as a start, Arbitrator." ”

The man nodded with a gloomy face, and raised his voice to declare,

"Bidding war, begin."
