North Ossetia, Milaka Town. It was just past six o 'clock in the evening.
Shi Lei checked the status of the 755 first-generation Iron Ships through the LIP Lens Information Processor's virtual transparent screen. Currently, all the Iron Ships were about to enter North Ossetia and had not been exposed.
Although the first-generation Iron Ships used an internal combustion engine design and were not very good at flying silently, the first-generation Iron Ships had the ability to fly at very low altitudes. It was very scientific for them to avoid radar scans.
"Izur, how long until the Iron Ships arrive?" Shi Lei asked Izur.
Izur displayed a countdown on the LIP Lens Information Processor's virtual transparent screen. It would take about one hour and twenty to two hours and thirty minutes for the 755 Iron Ships to arrive at Milaka Town.
Shi Lei thought for a while and ordered, "Create a memo. Inform me immediately when the Iron Ships arrive!"
"Roger that! Memo created! "Izur replied.
"Major Li, Colonel Andronik wants to inform you that the banquet will begin immediately," Andronik's trusted aide, Second Lieutenant Kavski reminded Shi Lei.
Shi Lei turned on the loudspeaker on the silver cube and replied, "Okay, Second Lieutenant Kavski. Lead the way!" After that, Shi Lei followed Kavski to the dinner venue.
Shuangqing City, Xia Xia.
It was already past ten o 'clock in the evening, but Xie Hui was still working in the Jade Building. His secretary, Qin Huini, was reporting to him.
"Director Xie, in the official player forum, there are more than 6.3 million players who have jointly suggested a post. Should we continue to ignore it?" Qin Huini asked nervously.
Xie Hui brought the LIP Lens Information Processor. Izur displayed the situation on the official player forum on the virtual transparent screen.
In the official player forum, there was a post titled "Pleading for Release Date." Currently, there were nearly two million players who jointly requested Dream Entertainment to give an explanation.
The post's request was simple. It was to ask when Dream Entertainment would release "Doomsday War".
As for the release of Doomsday War, Dream Entertainment had announced that they would not release it. They did not specify when it would be officially released. The gamers were already impatient, but they could not do anything to Dream Entertainment.
Xie Hui smiled bitterly, "Other than ignoring it, what other solutions do we have? Our Big Boss is nowhere to be seen. Without Big Boss's orders, what else can we do? "
Since Shi Lei was involved, Qin Huini didn't say anything.
"Huini, it's getting late. You should go back first!" Xie Hui looked at the time. It was already past ten o 'clock, so he waved his hand and ordered. Then he added, "It's dangerous at night. Take a taxi back. The company will reimburse you."
Qin Huini looked grateful. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Xie, aren't you getting off work yet?"
Xie Hui shook his head. "I can't get off work yet. I have to see if the gamers will cause any trouble!" Xie Hui had lived in Shuangqing City for more than a year, so he had learned some Shuangqing City dialect.
"Then … Mr. Xie, I'll take my leave first!" Qin Huini gritted her teeth, but her eyes flashed with a hint of shyness.
Xie Hui waved his hand. "Go!"
Qin Huini turned and left Xie Hui's office. Xie Hui looked at Qin Huini's back view with a complicated expression.
"Izur, report the situation on Dream Entertainment's official forum to Big Boss!" Xie Hui ordered Izur. Only Izur could keep in touch with Shi Lei at any time.
"Yes, Mr. Xie." Xie Hui set Izur's voice to be that of a middle-aged man instead of an emotionless, cold, and electronic voice.
Far away in North Ossetia, Shi Lei was tasting the local delicacies. One of the dishes was roasted wild boar, which was Shi Lei's favorite. When Shi Lei's mouth was full of oil, Xie Hui sent him a message.
Andronik had a mysterious expression on his face as he looked at Shi Lei and said, "Major Li, try this dish!" While Andronik was talking, a waiter came in with a small ceramic soup bowl and placed it in front of Shi Lei.
Shi Lei did not put down the roasted wild boar in his hand, nor did he look at the notification in his LIP lens. Instead, he asked Andronik, "Andronik, what's this?"
"Take a look! There's a surprise! "Andronik laughed.
Shi Lei took a big bite of the roasted wild boar in his hand before putting it down. Then, he opened the ceramic soup bowl in front of him. There was some kind of stew in the bowl, and it was accompanied by some wild mushrooms. From the way it was cooked, it was actually Xia's stew method.
Shi Lei took a sniff. The smell of the soup was very strong. As a foodie, Shi Lei was pretty good at judging ingredients, but he could not tell what kind of soup it was.
"Andronik, what kind of soup is this?" Shi Lei asked.
Andro had a wretched smile on his face. "Hehehe, this is bullwhip soup made from the local bull's penis. I used your Xia Country's method of stewing soup to make it!"
Shi Lei rolled his eyes. This kind of aphrodisiac booster, he couldn't afford it. "Forget it, Andronik, don't do this to me. I don't eat this kind of thing!"
Andronik was puzzled. "Major Li, this is good stuff!"
"Hmph! You don't understand! " Shi Lei said with a mysterious expression. Then, he ordered the waiter beside him, "Give this to Andronik and let him enjoy it!"
Andronik stopped him. "Wait! Major Li, I've already arranged it. Don't worry about it! " After that, Andronik clapped his hands, and a few Russian beauties in military uniforms walked in.
Shi Lei looked at the Russian beauties. The Russian beauties were very famous all over the world. In addition, they were wearing military uniforms, which gave them a different kind of attractiveness. They looked very attractive. But Shi Lei shook his head. Shi Lei was not a casual person. Even if he was casual, he was still human. So, Shi Lei still refused. "Andronik, I appreciate your kindness, but this is not my type."
Andronik did not force him. He waved his hand and signaled the beauties to leave. "Alright! Major Li, let's not talk about romance. Let's just drink and eat! "
"Wait a minute!" Shi Lei checked the information in the LIP lens processor. The virtual transparent screen showed the information that Xie Hui asked Izur to send.
Looking at the information in the official player forum, Shi Lei could not help but frown. Shi Lei had not decided when Doomsday War would be released. The main reason was that Doomsday War's requirements for computers were slightly too high. The graphics processing equipment and display cards of personal computers could not meet the requirements of Doomsday War for the time being.
If the data was fed back through the cloud, it would put a lot of pressure on IWN's secret network, and the effect would not be good. There were also some objective reasons. For example, if the second game was released, the world's major governments would definitely not let go of the review as easily as they did with Brave World. There was also the tax issue of the game equipment.
There were too many things to do now, and Shi Lei did not have the energy to deal with those trivial matters. So, Shi Lei said in a silent voice, "Izur, contact Xie Hui."
After waiting for less than twenty seconds, Xie Hui picked up the phone. "Thank God, thank God, thank Lord Laotzu. Boss Shi, you've finally appeared!"
Shi Lei frowned at Xie Hui's playful behavior. "Old Xie, do you have to be so dramatic?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xie Hui said bitterly, "Director Shi, if you don't appear now, I'm afraid those angry players will smash the windows of my house!"
Xie Hui had settled down in Shuangqing City's Shuanghu District. Some of the local players in Shuangqing City knew Xie Hui's home address. If it were not for the protection plan of Judge Security Strategies Ltd., Xie Hui would have been harassed by countless players.
Shi Lei laughed. "Old Xie, tell those angry players that Doomsday War will continue to skip tickets!"
Xie Hui smiled bitterly. "Don't, don't, my big boss. Please, don't be like this. Give me a specific time. When will Doomsday War be released? If you don't give me a time, I don't know what those angry players will do! "
Shi Lei did not explain too much. He simply said, "Currently, we don't have the necessary conditions to release Doomsday War. Alright, Old Xie, let's not talk about this anymore. Just announce that Doomsday War is skipping tickets. Anyway, I still have things to do here. I'll leave it to you! "Shi Lei didn't seem to be worried about the angry players doing anything irrational.
Facing Shi Lei's behavior of being a hands-off shopkeeper, what else could Xie Hui do? Who asked Shi Lei to be the big boss!
"Alright, alright, Boss Shi, I got it!" Xie Hui replied. Just as he finished speaking, Shi Lei had already hung up.
Xie Hui could only helplessly order, "Izur, prepare to post on Dream Entertainment's official website, Dream Entertainment's official player forum that Doomsday War will continue to skip tickets."
"Yes, Boss Xie." Izur replied to Xie Hui. "Boss Xie, should we use a standard template for the announcement, or should we get the relevant information from an external source?"
The standard template was a formal message. Although it was convenient, it was a little sloppy. If they chose to use an external source, Dream Entertainment's staff would have to write an announcement and send it to Izur through the webcam.
Xie Hui thought about it. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. It was already past ten o 'clock. Was there someone in the company?
