Chapter 1325: Extra – Royal Zodiac Snake’s Opinions
Like how the Pandawans had described, the war against the Demon Rats was an attrition battle never seen before. Even the Royal Zodiac Snake Soldiers felt that the army should attend to this particular limited raid instance to have a sense of war during this era of peace.
Se Chang Chang had returned to his office after a long stint leading the Royal Zodiac Snake soldiers for at least a day’s worth of work. He had never felt both exhilarated and tired from the experience that he had to share it with the Royal Zodiac group chat.
Many of them ignored his message upon learning that it was nothing important but Royal Zodiac Pig Head Zhu Tai Fang and Royal Zodiac Sheep Head Yang Rou Xiang were the only two who replied. They were positive with the comments as well and even said that they would consider sending an attachment of Royal Zodiac troops to take part in the fight as well.
Se Chang Chang was delighted with the support and was surprised that the clans that made up the main logistic team of China’s army was going in to earn experience compared to the clans who were supposed to be the frontliners.
Royal Zodiac Rooster Head Mu Ji said that she would join if they could afford troops that were allowed to fly which made Se Chang Chang scoff. “Of course! I even have three aircraft under my name and had been using them to do some bombing runs for Pandarens until I found out that those Demon Rats had prepared aerial threats as well. I am sure that if you speak to Jin personally, he might be able to give you a good deal to let your pilots learn more. Of course, you can’t possibly get newer plane models since Jin said that those are classified information and he does not have enough references to make them. However, he did state that he might have something similar, just not the same, a bit more fictional in nature.”
“Hmm, I will talk to him a bit about it else, it’s not ending that soon, right?” Mu Ji asked through the chat and Se Chang Chang could only gather from Hou Fei that this was a limited raid instance that won’t be happening again anytime soon.
“Jin projected that it would definitely not be done by the end of PandaVerse Festival but he said was going to push it through until they cleared their objective which is to clear the Demon Rats.” Se Chang Chang replied and the rest who quietly read the chats understood why he decided to use the PandaVerse Festival to promote this main event of his. By calling it a festival, Jin would be able to fully utilise the strength of the raid instance and its difficulty. Without enough people, the raid instance would be too much of a challenge for the Pandarens.” Chang Chang added that he believed that he was doing this to gather information to do a very large raid instance. In fact, he believed that this could possibly and officially be the largest raid instance in the world. He had no doubt that Jin directly had a hand in increasing the popularity of Dungeon Instances again in China as well as challenging the major Dungeon Supplier companies overseas too.
The Royal Snake Head also assumed that Jin had gotten the Royal Zodiac Clans to increase the credibility of his latest raid instance, allowing the local media as well as the internet to show that it was authentic since showing the Royal Zodiac Clans meant that it concerned the face of China too. At the same time, Se Chang Chang also theorised that Jin was doing this to indirectly increase the military strength assuming the clans take advantage of the raid instance.
And as the Royal Zodiac Snake Head had expected, he enjoyed undergoing Jin’s raid and the difficulty was something which he had not relished from a dungeon instance for the longest time ever. Even dungeon suppliers that were contracted with the armed forces were not able to create such an extensive and realistic instance. In fact, the most luxurious dungeon suppliers too could not come close to Jin’s superior dungeon making skills. It was to the point that they were starting to lose their credibility of being the best in the field but not too much of an extent since their overwhelming service and high barrier of entry allowed rich people to enjoy themselves without it being too crowded.
“Heh, perhaps Jin should open two new stores. One specifically for the armed forces and one for the super rich. I assume he will make tons of money if he did that.” Se Chang Chang said to himself before opening the Pandamonium App and checking the status of his Outer Wall Camp that he had created. Before leaving, he added a few additional defences such as a better magic barrier and also started to reinforce the interior of the Outer Walls since he was using that to let the other Pandarens and his soldiers recuperate. There were anti-noise inscriptions to prevent explosive sounds from permeating through the walls, allowing the cultivators to rest.
Se Chang Chang also decided to expand inward by adding military pillboxes, walls of sandbags and a trench line where the cultivators could fall back with defenders protecting the Outer walls. It was tedious especially when he needed extra manpower to man the entire Outer wall but there was nothing money could not buy including the construction of the defences.
Multiple NPC Panda Mages temporarily appeared to use earth magic similar to how Sandy the Sand Witch did it to clear the ground to create the defences and set up the military pillboxes while the Southern Soldiers were bought via contracts to continue the defensive manning of the Outer Wall camp.
It was expensive no doubt but the Royal Snake Head had nothing but money and responsibilities so to him, it was fine for him to splurge with his bank account to get it done. Besides, there was a permanent 15% discount for him to utilise as given by Jin for being the only Royal Zodiac Clan Head to stay after their contracted time. (Even though everyone behind the scenes knows that Jin was probably scamming them despite the 15% discount.)
“I had prepped everything that I could, all the best to you Hou Fei and the rest. Do not fail me.” Se Chang Chang said as he turned in for the day satisfied.
