Chapter 990 Real Time Strategy
"What are you going to do?" Qiu Yue readied her heart as she had no idea what Jin had in mind. The plans I'm in front of her was overwhelming, and she was not taking any information in. She doesn't remember having any terrific powers with her Empire Building Sub System except for making buildings pop up if enough resources were available.
"It might come at an awkward timing, and perhaps a bit old too, but I have yet to compliment you for the decoration you have done for the hotels that hosted the Royal Snake Soldiers. The System told me that you had created them along with the Goblin Clay Masons." Jin said, and Qiu Yue nodded her head, thinking where this communication conversation was going.
"Eh yea, after a while, I learnt how they composed it and created them. Of course, it is a little difficult to get the details like the muscles and stuff. I also helped them create a production line for the defence raid."
"We needed them to run fast, hit hard, and thus the balance of the creation needed me to crunch some numbers without wasting time making them. Still, the clay masons products were stronger because of the effort placed in them." Qiu Yue explained. "You saw how they were more effective against the Demon soldiers compared to the last line of defence we have where those were mass produced."
"Those runes are the same, right? You were able to mass produce them." Jin asked once again, and she nodded her head.
"That one was harder as Jespa was very insistent in making sure certain parameters of the rune stone manufacturing were achieved before she allowed me to produce them. But yes, even our favourite runesmith was stunned her work could be manufactured. It merely takes some ingenuity."
"Which you did, Qiu Yue. And here I am acknowledging how important they were and will be for the upcoming fight." Jin said "Judging from the limited deep scans from the System and Peppers, their numbers are way over the top and they are still creating even more as we speak. What we need is to wither their numbers down for the fight, and we are going to do the same as before right now." Jin explained as he started to expand his dungeon console screen.
"We are going to make havoc in their caves, disrupting their operations and proceed to their undercities. And we need those clay soldiers once more. But this time with some extra help not just from you but your old mates." Jin said, and she was confused.
That was when Jin said that he was going to make a fake 'real time strategy' game for Qiu Yue. He explained how he would want Qiu Yue to contact her old pals and even their contacts and try out this real time strategy game of controlling the Clay Soldiers.
"In short, I am making a mind hive, a LAN gaming dungeon instance so that RTS geniuses like you and your friends can take control of. I briefly talked to Jespa via the System channel, and she said command runes were possible to create and use along with the animate clay runes, a more advanced animate dead, specific to clay models. The System will then pass that control to the Empire Building Sub System. After all, how can you build an empire if you have no control over certain subjects?" Jin smiled, and Qiu Yue was stunned for a moment before she ponders if there were any loopholes to it.
"But how do you replicate the production of these clay soldiers like the way we manage soldiers in those RTS games? I mean we can't exactly teleport clay soldiers one by one in, that will be a strain in the System along for just one player, not to mention a bunch of crazy ass micromanaging assholes and bitches." Qiu Yue said as she was concerned whether the System can take control of it.
"Also, the fog of war, usually we have a constant overview of the fighting ground. Back then, in the Pandapolis fight, it was easy peasy because the city was ours to begin with. Now, amidst the spiralling caves, it is nigh impossible to have it done unless we create a satellite that does what Peppers do every sec, in fact, every mini second of constant deep scanning." Qiu Yue said and Jin was looking towards her without saying a word.
"Wait, what?! You want me to create a satellite?! That is impossible! I don't have the blueprints, and current satellite networks that we have are not cut out of ...oh wait. Did you already-" Qiu Yue squinted her eyes, and Jin was nodding his head at a slow pace.
"You have the satellites and already improved them so that the satellites are possible to do such a feat like constant deep scanning?" Qiu Yue questioned, and he shrugged his shoulders.
"Almost there. It was a project on the sidelines that I had asked the research team to do whenever they are free, which they are never free. Still, they inisisted on giving them more work. Anyways, I noticed how useful the satellite was for the Goblin World and the importance of having first hand information." Jin said as this was his plan. He must have something done before getting help from Qiu Yue.
The only issue was how he did it so quickly, and that was because Jin had been using the time dilation room to the maximum, slowing time down drastically. He found out the dungeon supplier does have some innate resistance to the side effects of time magic as he levelled up in his cultivation grades. The System was surprised and increased the room's dilation to its third highest setting.
At that point, people would have slurring problems; the inertia to work was basically a constant. But to Jin, he worked as if there was no tomorrow. And so, he had managed to complete the plan in a short amount of time for Qiu Yue to take a look in.
"However, the satellites are more to track above the ground movement. So in order to overcome that flaw, the System had made contact with the Farming World's spirits of the land, and they were delighted to hear that a super entity could help with their ailing condition." Jin said, causing Qiu Yue to be amazed by the solution.
"So real time tracking of the rats can come true…"
"However, we will put some fog of war for you guys, to make it interesting unless the System deemed it otherwise," Jin explained.
"Then, this production of clay soldiers?"
"Similar to the satellites which are in the process of coming out their first prototype, I took the liberty to look at your clay factories and made a mobile version aka your Factory on wheels," Jin said and told her to improve on the designs if possible.
"So like a command centre, we get troops out. Huh, I guess this RTS cum virtual controlling of the game is really becoming possible."
"Told you so. I mean, we saw how the Pandawans tried to control the squads. They have no sense of leadership in commanding the AI as much as I hoped them to be. I tried reducing the scope by giving the customers a more advanced AI for the Nian Instance but based on statistics, it's not up to my standard. So why bother giving them that many AI soldiers when all I need are those smart friends of yours to play it and control them effectively? I would probably need you to test play it as the alpha version before putting it out as the beta version. This way, the fights would be more organised and to some point, efficient. We can send the cultivators to fight their own wacky style in some other portion of the operation." Jin claimed which Qiu Yue agreed.
While she now had a first hand in real commanding, she knew how hard it was compared to controlling a keyboard and mouse. But those clay soldiers that could move at command would be a better addition to Jin's arsenal than a bunch of cultivators doing their way.
"Then I guess the cultivators would be invading the capital?" Qiu Yue asked.
"More like a distraction for our pros and help to thin the numbers whenever possible. Hahaha." Jin said as he passed Qiu Yue a USB drive and a key to the Mind Hive dungeon instance.
If this goes well, Jin would have an autonomous fighting force to be reckoned.
