Year 6 of Gaia, 1st January.
Before the global players could recover from this update, there was another major announcement.
At nine in the morning, the Federation President gave a public speech, announcing the dissolution of the Federation and handing it over to Skynet. The moment the news came out, the global players were dumbfounded and did not know what to do.
"What's going on? Is it the end of the world?"
Fortunately, the official website disclosed the news, allowing the players to secretly heave a sigh of relief.
Although the Federation had disintegrated, the fleet was still under Skynet's supervision, so it would not affect the players. In the first five years of the game, everyone was in a world without a federation.
It was just that this time, it was clear.
Even so, there were still many uneasy people. Some people were even worried that Gaia had been corrupted, controlled the fleet, and used robots to rule humanity.
Fortunately, Gaia's next move eliminated everyone's doubts.
At ten in the morning, an announcement was made across the world.
"World Announcement: From today onwards, the real-time liquidation of game assets will be officially opened. Players can check their individual Achievement Points and relevant authority levels at any time. For more information, please log on to the official website."
…
Achievement Points would be updated every morning according to the player's game earnings.
Gaia also opened the Achievement Mall at the same time. Players could use Achievement Points to purchase real life items such as high-level nutrition fluids, genetic medicine, and even homo sapiens, cyborgs, and robots.
The so-called homo sapiens were like Gaia, a perfect combination of artificial intelligence and human flesh.
With Gaia's extraordinary creativity, some technologies that were not available on Earth would be developed by Gaia in the next few years, ushering in a technological boom.
These new products, especially those developed for Planet Hope, would become the main exchange targets.
As the fleet's resources were limited, these products could only be supplied in limited quantities. Rare items, such as homo sapiens, even required the corresponding authority level to purchase.
This also meant that from this moment on, the competition between humans on Planet Hope had officially begun. Whoever could exchange for these products first would have the upper hand.
…
Shanhai City, Xia Palace.
As the announcement ended, Ouyang Shuo heard a series of system notifications.
"System Notification: Beginning evaluation of player's game assets, recalculating Achievement Points …"
The assets of the Great Xia Dynasty would be allocated to Ouyang Shuo according to a certain ratio, and then converted into Achievement Points according to a certain coefficient. Without a doubt, this would be an extremely huge number.
"System Notification: Evaluation complete. Player Ouyang Shuo has a total of 12,538,745 Achievement Points. His Level of Authority has been raised to Level A. Congratulations!"
The lowest requirement for A-rank access was 10 million points, while S-rank access was 100 million points.
Through five years of hard work in the game, Ouyang Shuo, this civilian boy, stood on the same echelon as the big shots of the Silver Hand and became one of the few people in the world who had A-level authority.
More importantly, Great Xia was still developing and expanding. Ouyang Shuo's achievement value would continue to increase, and it was hard to say what level he would eventually reach.
However, with the current size of Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo was only able to break through to Rank A. If he wanted to advance to Rank S, it meant that Great Xia had to expand eight times from its current foundation, and the difficulty was extraordinary.
There was still a long way to go.
"System prompt: Congratulations to player Ouyang Shuo for attaining A-rank authority. You will have your own room in the fleet. Do you wish to receive it?"
Ouyang Shuo's heart stirred. The benefits of having a high level of authority had finally arrived.
Due to the limited space in the fleet, the majority of the players' game cabins were like containers, densely packed together. The players could not log off at all because there was no space for them to move around offline.
"Receive!"
Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate at all. There were side effects of the body being frozen for a long period of time. It would be great if he could log off from time to time to adjust.
Moreover, the "Five Emperors True Scripture" had extremely high requirements for the physical body, and it was perfect for offline training.
As soon as Ouyang Shuo's voice fell, the game cabin in the real world was rapidly sent to a room by the machine. In less than 20 minutes, Ouyang Shuo received a prompt.
"System prompt: Player's game cabin is in place. Please log off to adjust the specific layout!"
Ouyang Shuo suppressed his excitement, returned to a quiet room in the palace, closed his eyes, and went offline.
…
In the universe's starry sky, spaceship serial number ZGD105.
As the door of the game cabin opened, Ouyang Shuo gradually opened his eyes. The soft light stimulated his eyes to the point that they were tearing up. He had not felt light for five years.
Ouyang Shuo was not in a hurry to get up.
Even after dispersing his cultivation, his true essence flowed into his limbs and bones, and his physical body became incomparably strong. Ouyang Shuo still felt weak all over. If it wasn't for the constant baptism of true essence, his muscles would have atrophied.
After a long time, Ouyang Shuo slowly got up and looked around.
The room wasn't big. There was only one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen, and one bathroom. The area was less than 40 square meters.
The game cabin was placed in the corner of the living room. In the middle was a set of fabric sofas, and on the opposite wall was a digital television. At the end of the living room was a large transparent glass. Through the glass, one could see the pitch-black universe.
Compared to the Xia Palace, this could only be considered a shabby room. However, only by being here and looking at the vast starry sky outside the window could Ouyang Shuo feel a sense of reality and not an illusion.
After all, the game world was just a carrier. In the end, he still had to return to reality.
In the next five years, while Ouyang Shuo continued to lead the Great Xia Dynasty to expand their territory in the game world, he would also have to make preparations for the survival of Planet Hope.
At this moment, the television switched on automatically, and Gaia appeared on the screen.
"Is this our first time meeting?" Ouyang Shuo took the initiative to greet him.
Gaia's eyes flashed, and he avoided answering. "You can request for the layout of the room. As long as you pay Achievement Points, any request will be satisfied."
Ouyang Shuo nodded. "Can you transfer my family's game cabin over?"
"Sure!"
Ouyang Shuo had the ownership of the room, so he could naturally share it with his family.
When he was looking around the room just now, Ouyang Shuo was already thinking about how to make the best use of this house. The living room could be used as a public place for family activities, but the bedroom was naturally not used for sleeping. If one wanted to sleep, they could directly enter the game cabin.
Ouyang Shuo planned to transform the bedroom into a training room. It would be best if it was a gravity room that could temper the body.
"No problem. Pay 500 Achievement Points." Gaia was very straightforward.
Ouyang Shuo felt his heart ache. Even though he had more than 10 million Achievement Points, and 500 Achievement Points were nothing to him, it couldn't withstand such a consumption. He estimated that more than half of the Achievement Points were used on the gravity field.
The training room only had basic training equipment. Ouyang Shuo wanted a weapon that he could use. He looked at Gaia and asked, "Can I customize a sword in reality?"
