When they heard Mr. Johnson say the young man was a player from the Top Three, they felt a surge of excitement. People personally received by Mr. Johnson were clearly not ordinary folks, and such people playing the game they had developed felt like a badge of honor! However, when they heard the next ID uttered by Mr. Johnson, the technicians drinking water or coffee sprayed the contents of their mouths out in shock.

Thankfully they were no longer in the office area, or it would have been a disaster. But damn it, could it be a little less shocking? Who is Literati “Sawyer Mitchell”? Forget about their development team, even the customer service representatives, GMs, and managers of Top Three, as well as the official forum and most of the players, knew of this ID, right?

“Shit!” Some members of the development team couldn’t help blurting out curses upon realizing something. “No way, Sawyer Mitchell, you’re not really here to buy WY, are you?” One member of the technical team even referred to Finn Lewis by the nickname given to him by the majority of players on the forum.

“Oh my God!”

“Damn!”

The other people also reacted. This wasn’t any new news. The ins and outs of Finn Lewis smashing hundreds of millions to create 200 big wing avatars the night it happened had been reposted on the forum by a number of players from Memory Empire servers. Even the post where Sawyer Mitchell replied that he would seriously consider their suggestion to buy WY had been reposted on the forum.

You have to understand, these two posts are still prominently displayed on the official forum by the moderators. Countless players have commented below, saying they’re waiting for Sawyer Mitchell to acquire IVY. Now… a few members of the development team felt their entire worldview had been utterly shattered. Dear lord, what kind of person are you, actually buying a game development company because of a gaming dispute…?

“I’ve already discussed the acquisition price with your Mr. Johnson, I will probably acquire around fifty-two to sixty percent of WY’s shares. Does this count as acquiring WY?” Finn Lewis joked, while Yuri Johnson looked speechless to the side. Did he really need to dote on these tech guys like this? He was going to be their future boss, he should maintain a bit of a boss’s dignity and integrity, right?

All the employees present were stunned upon hearing Finn’s words. Is this for real? Everyone instinctively looked at Yuri. Johnson, who nodded, “I said before, if the game engine you have in your hands holds such value, I will agree to sell thirtv-two percent of mv shares to Mr. Lewis.”

The members of the development team didn’t know what to say for a moment. After a long time, Leo Harrison managed to muster the words: “Mr. Johnson, this game engine… how can I put it? You could say it’s epoch-making. We’ve even tested it and it produced genuinely movie-level graphics. It far outshines anything available on the market. It can create actual movie-level graphics. I can tell you without hesitation that with this engine, we can reproduce the entire Avatar!”

Hearing Leo’s words, Yuri Johnson’s face remained full of shock. Despite having roughly guessed what to expect during their meeting, the idea of reproducing Avatar completely was still unbelievable to him. Setting aside the box office of Avatar for a moment, just the special effects alone took an overly long time and cost hundreds of millions in Federal coins.

But now they could create it with just a game engine, which meant the cost would go down to an unbelievable degree. “Moreover, it’s not just that. We’ve tested it and the key feature of this game engine is that it can reduce the need for graphics cards. This may sound unbelievable. Like those ultra-clear movies on the Internet that are twenty-plus gigs. Some ordinary graphics cards can’t even cope with them, and it’s the same for some games. But this game engine can minimize these calculations, truly achieving the highest graphics at the lowest cost.”

Saying this, Leo stopped for a moment before continuing: “According to our estimates, players would require machines that can fully depict the graphics of the current Top Three game to play this game with this engine. Of course, there might be some lag when a lot of special effects are used.”

“Excellent!” Finn nodded, this time directly interrupting Yuri Johnson. With the situation as it was, even if Yuri didn’t want to sell it was impossible. The immense potential of this engine was clear, meaning even if wasn’t sold to Finn, it would still face great challenges in the future. Considering this, it was better to just sell it.

“Pleasure doing business.”

“Pleasure doing business.” After a simple dinner, when Yuri Johnson officially transferred 32% of WY’s shares to Finn Lewis at a price of 50 billion Federal coins, it meant the end of Yuri Johnson’s era in MY.

In the future, WY would certainly be brighter. The moment the contract was signed, Finn heard a notification from Zero in his mind: “Task completed. Task reward: 100,000 points. Formula for Energy Harmonizing Liquid unlocked.” It was a normal voice, without the prompt for the task completion rate Finn expected, meaning he had completed the task within the normal range.

Although a bit disappointed, it didn’t matter much. Buying WY was the most important thing for Finn. Even though he bought 52% of NW’s shares for roughly 80 billion Federal coins, this expenditure… based on the current estimations, it would take quite a long time for Finn to break even.

It couldn’t be helped, Finn had already considered this. But Zero had given a restriction: to earn points by making money, the cost of purchase needed to be deducted first. So, Finn now needed to earn back these 80 billion Federal coins. However, he didn’t need to consider that for now. But the reward of 100,000 points for completing the task, which equated to 1 billion Federal coins, was worth the investment.

This amount of points alone made it worth the investment for Finn, not to mention, the funds for this came from the task, and Finn suddenly gained assets worth nearly this many billion Federal coins under his name for no reason!

The shares of WY were different from those of Fruit. Even though the shares of

Fruit were under Finn’s name, Finn had no control over them as they were Zero’s tricks. But the shares of WY were obtained from a task by Finn, following the rules of previous tasks, these shares were now Finn’s after the task was completed.

What a pity, tasks like this were too rare. Finn stroked his chin, “Should we make this news public?” After the contract was signed, Yuri Johnson asked Finn

with a smile..
