Chapter 1363: Pandawan’s Rest
“Boss!” The rest of the Pandawans who were willing to stay in the high executive suite called out to Jin as a form of greeting.
“Long time no see,” Jin said as he brought a bit of snack and goodies including a bottle of wine for the group to partake in as he was being led into the main hall where the rest were. Jia Le went to call out Deng Long and Bu Dong who were discussing the Supa Robos in their room and the other two greeted Jin when they saw him.
“What brings you here?” Bu Dong asked as he knew that the fight between the Demon Rats should still be ongoing with Pandarens who were currently off work participating in it. As the Pandawans and the majority of the Pandarens had taken the time to relax, the humans had ceased their attacks and protected their assets until the next wave.
As there were no guarantees that their assets would remain till the next day, the Pandarens who had invested a lot in this current raid had put up an alert notice in their Pandamonium App, asking it to notify them in case the Demon Rats attacks were getting stronger. It was something similar to a standby mode where they would come in to assist if the Base Camp and the teleportation crystal is in danger.
Right now, all they needed was some R&R leisure before the Pandamonium App called for them to get into the fray once more because no matter what, quality food and rest is the basic desire of all humans.
“Just checking up on you guys and see how are you faring with the current raids,” Jin said as he grab a chair from the dining table and place it near the hall where there was a long cushion sofa and coffee table. He sat comfortably at the side and listened to his Pandawans complained.
“You just raise the difficulty bar again. Can’t you just give me something easier? At this rate, you will be scaring all the new Pandarens that want to try out your raid instance.” Deng Long said as he was still sulky that his Supa Robo had been stolen by the enemy so quickly.
“Heh, I did tell you guys that this would not be an easy fight, much less that you all will be able to clear it within a day,” Jin replied as he laid back and squashed that complaint.
“The numbers are crazy though and that big earthquake is something that we did not expect.” Jia Le commented while the rest were shaking their heads as they recalled the experience.
“Honestly, that was a little out of the planned consequences but it seems the simulated AI had decided that you guys are progressing too fast even though the help I gave you guys was already at the minimum,” Jin replied as he opened one of the snacks and told the rest to partake in the food.
“So, you mean that we could have gone and attacked as per usual with no earthquake scenario?” Bin Yong asked and Jin nodded his head although he knew it was a lie since he was not in control of the Demon Rats. The break in the ground wa
s something he originally wanted to do in the first place, as he knew that fighting the surface was practically a waste of time.
However, if he were to factor in the possible money making opportunities in providing sea and air options to the Pandarens and more importantly the Royal Zodiacs, he could be rolling in money which he ultimately did. The first day of profit was unexpected with the Royal Snake Head Se Chang Chang investing so much in his raid instance when all those items he had bought were inflated greatly by the System.
Although he did wonder why would Se Chang Chang and the other Royal Zodiac Heads even invest in it so willingly even though they should know that it is just a temporary fixture in a raid ‘instance’. If he was the head of a clan, he would not readily spend this much money even if it is by a recommendation from his General. “Perhaps, it is his way to fund me indirectly? But if that’s the case, why were the Monkey and Sheep Clan willing to splurge too?” Jin thought to himself but he could never figure out why.
“Needless to say, it would be an uphill battle from today onwards and that depends on whether the Demon Rats had decided that you are a threat to them or not. But it seems like they will continue to press the offensive to take you out as soon as possible.” Jin added and the rest sighed. Even if they know a little bit of strategy and tactics, how could they possibly flaunt it right in front of the person who created the raid instance?
“So you are warning us that an attack would be imminent tonight?” Bu Dong asked and Jin shrugged his shoulders.
“I could only say that that would be a possibility given how they had decided to destroy their land so that they could inflict the maximum amount of damage towards you guys and the rest of the Pandarens with the earthquake attack. But if they know that the number of Pandarens had decreased with the creation of the Pillar Base Camp, they would not hesitate to crush you guys once they prove their theory is right.” Jin said as the others seemed to understand where he was coming from.
Even though it was just day 2 of the raid instance, the Demon Rats were working and thinking like humans as well. If they had noticed a pattern in the Pandarens’ attacks, they knew that it would be disastrous once the Demon Rats launch a retaliation to destroy the Base Camp and teleportation crystal.
“Haha, Boss. Are you sure that this isn’t a ploy for me to spend money so that we can protect the teleportation crystal at the third layer inner wall?” Xiong Da asked and Jin laughed.
“I am not stupid. I can see why you did not bother adding extra stuff to protect the teleportation crystal since you believe that it could be destroyed within a day or two if the Demon Rats wished to do so.” Jin answered and Xiong Da merely returned with a smirk.
“But I am not here to promote you to buy any items. Instead, I a
m here to ask you guys to let me help you all. If you wish.” Jin said with a big smile that everyone knows that he had something up his sleeves. But without a doubt, everyone was excited to hear him.
Because whenever he wish to request something from the Pandawans, it would always be filled with excitement and the possible allure of additional rewards as well. However, knowing Jin he would always make them do something crazy mainly due to the fact that the Pandawans comprehended that they were like human subjects in an unethical experiment for some digital money. Still, they knew that rejecting him outright was something that would be considered stupid so they all kept quiet and ready to listen without complaints.
