Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 1035: Relocating? - Part 2



Chapter 1035: Relocating? - Part 2

While most of the Foxes agreed to the relocation, they still needed Jin's permission for them to do so, thus Rex had summoned him. The dungeon supplier had just been working with Qiu Yue on the reconstruction of the Southern Capital. (Needless to say, he had dragged the Red Panda Cultivator into the conversation and she felt another streak of headaches coming in.)

"You know, Jin, when I first heard that my Sub-System was called the Empire Building System I had just thought it was just a flashy name. However, with all the fuss of rebuilding stuff right, left and centre, I'm starting to think one day I might be able to create an entire city with a snap of a finger." Qiu Yue complained while entering the portal. While she had slowly earnt the capability to create buildings via the Sub System, there was only so much she could do at a given set of time.

"Basically you plan to start a mini civil war in the city and make use of that opportunity for big change, huh?" Jin asked after scanning through the files, all thick with pages of reports from the foxes. He had never expected them to be this meticulous since the dungeon supplier had always thought of them as just fighters. Only through the limited interactions with Rex in the past few days did he come to learn that the foxes had all been leader candidates for their clans, making them excellent bureaucrats.

"You could say that. Think of it as a sort of spring cleaning to change the city in a way you want it to be." Kraft chuckled from the side with a large grin on his face.

"That is actually a good idea in theory, but we don't know how they will react to going into Pandapolis. We can't exactly feed them for months on end, while we are rebuilding Demopolis. Even though we need data to replicate what their jobs were, this seems like a bad thing for us." Jin said and Rex shook his head.

"Then make them work the way you need them to work. If they have to readapt, this is the best time to inculcate new values in them. With the power of technology by our side, we should be able to influence them to fall in love with the gadgets of the modern world and thus allow them to work better."

"Besides, we will need people to rebuild the Demopolis. Qiu Yue's ability is handy, but costly and we cannot expect our minions to do everything, especially with the Farming World situation. Let's not forget it will be the future city for the Demon Citizens. It's best they work for their city and they would fight for their citizens. This will also give temporary work to those demons in the slums and will allow the craftsman to upgrade their skills. Their engineers and scientists could benefit from working with our Orc and Goblin engineering teams and they might be able to build their very own version of golems. As for the military side, they can be under the training of Nubwort or Zeru if he's not missing most of the time." Evon stated.

"And if things go very well with the re-education programme, we can also adapt this to the Southerners and eventually the Northerners once we defeat the Demon Rats. As for the kids, they are currently not bound to our world's norm of giving them an education so they could work in the fields in the Farming Sector and receive some education materials as part of learning. Maybe the ones with deft hands could be assistants for the engineers and scientists. That would definitely spur them to read up more. After all, if we were to fight in the Mecha World, we need all the help we can get." Itori explained.

"While I understand that all these are preparations when they are in Pandapolis, I am actually more interested in the current chaos we are about to make." Jin queried if he was able to exploit the City Raids for his cultivators.

"From what I know, you all have been gathering intelligence on the Mafias and they are quite deep-rooted in this society. With the relocation, we can get the System to monitor all of them who go into Pandapolis and remove any possible threats. But the problem seems to be those that remain in Demopolis. If possible, I would like the cultivators to find them and if needed subdue them. Like a sort of city bounty hunt kind of dungeon instance."

"That means the amount of effort we put in in the first place to get intel is kind of useless isn't it?" Kai asked as the coordination training between the Night Foxes, Home Guards and even some of the police units would be useless if Jin sent his customers into a rampage.

"I wouldn't say that. If you think about it, we not only need to close the Demopolis borders but we got to assist with the movement from Demopolis and Pandapolis. I assume it should be done with the magical circles, just like the way the Demon Army first came in. If that's the case, the Home Guards as well as the police are needed to secure the area. If those Mafia goons try to do some reckless, we have to be there to protect the citizens. The Night Foxes on the other hand could chase after those assailants or maybe sieve out the baddies if the System managed to catch anybody suspicious within the crowds." Tsu defended the proposal to move the citizens to Pandapolis so they could have a definite battle with lesser citizen casualties.

"You make them sound like terrorists in the making." Qiu Yue commented which both Tsu and Kai nodded their heads.

"Don't forget that the System is not the only one capable of resurrecting people. In the Dungeon World it's practically guaranteed, even if the duration differs, that is how they hold the values of their victim's lives and being destructively reckless could be said to be one of their modus operandi." Kai sighed.

"If anything, we can always dispatch several patrol units both as bait and backup during the Demopolis lockdown. If the Pandarens need help, they could just shoot a flare up and the Home Guards can assist." Tsu suggested.

"Oh my… That is actually a delightful suggestion." Jin thought to himself and already started to have a few ideas on the perks of maintaining a kill bonus. He remembered the uses of such perks in fast paced action games but if he could implement this, it might give the cultivators more reason to survive in a fight.

"Guys, as much as you all want to murder those mafias and squeeze some money from the cultivators, you have to remember there are some who will refuse to move out of their areas. To them, it's their livelihood or even a precious memory." Pei pointed out, telling them that while it would be fun for the Pandarens to go all wild in a secluded city, this was still reality, despite what Jin's customers might think. "If you really want to go through with this Bounty Hunt thing, I suggest you add a portion of rescuing the citizens or forcibly removing them into Pandapolis if needed. Or just do that when the System recreates this experience, and not during the live thing!"

"Pei my dear, if you say 'forcibly remove', people might have some misunderstandings." Kraft chuckled and Pei threw a death stare at him, already reaching for her fan to forcibly remove that crafty fox, who had not really added anything substantial as of yet.

"I get what you mean Pei, I see to it that I add a rescue portion too and attached to it, would be a higher reward so that they would prioritise keeping them alive as much as possible."

"Loot wise, might I suggest, that they do not go around stealing. If they just start taking the belongings of every individual that had left the place in a rush, we will have to shoulder the blame." Ixel pointed, believing that the Pandarens would have the tendency to pick up anything that they deemed valuable. It would both be rude and Public Relations wise, hard to salvage when the citizens come back to a looted home.

"I think a tweak in the System visor programming should be sufficient since all the Pandarens wear the visor masks. We can just threaten them with the new NPC Punishment System." Jin noted Demopolis Police Chief Ixel's concerns. "Alternatively, we can make them have a lost and found portion where they also earn points picking items up. There will be some reprogramming done if I do that but it's doable."

"So I assume I have to create some advertisement not only for the Demopolis Citizens to evacuate but also enticing advertisements of a new raid coming up?" Kiyu said with a reluctant drag in her tone. It was obviously more work for her since she had to come out with something that would spur the citizens to move out while pumping the excitement for the Pandarens to come in.

"The extra cash and increased numbers of customers from raids would be welcomed. So please do both sides. I have to settle Grandma Yuan's stuff before she comes hounding me." Jin replied and Qiu Yue reminded him that the Tiger's Factories also needed his urgent attention too.

"Urgh. Sometimes, I feel that I should just reset everything and stick with a small store." Jin added which somehow caused both Rex and Kraft to grin sidewards for the moment. He could think about the past as much as he wanted but there was no going back.
