Chapter 1682 Who Will Know? -Part 4

Parry City's Advisor told Sir Peru Peru that Daimon's troops were coming through Parry City in a week's time and this would make it seem that Jin had the intention to invade his city within the week. And to make things worse, the reports of the Mechanical Dragon had yet to be found which complicates matters even more.

"Sir, if Daimon should ever invade…" The advisor tried to hint Sir Peru Peru on a matter but the Parry City's Lord immediately retaliated.

"Lord Jin. If you do not remove your troops in four days, we will assume the worst intentions coming from Daimon and may proceed to declare war on you." Sir Peru Peru said and Jin nodded his head.

"I will very much agree to that proposal. As verbally spoken and recorded, Daimon City will remove their troops after four days time." Jin felt that Sir Peru Peru had already been hooked to his ruse and turned off the communication line.

"You sure that is a good idea?" General Grieves and General Ost were at the corner of the room watching it unfold. "If we leave at Day 4, there are a few days apart before the returning army group will be back."

"It's fine. In fact, it is better than nothing. They know that our troops would be walking past the city and so they would not be leaving the city defenceless now that they believed that our intention was to attack." Jin said as he checked the progress of the assembly of troops as well as the media coverage.

The Daimon people were a little concerned that Jin's a warmonger even though it had been repeatedly stated that it was for the safety of building the Northern Dungeon outpost. There were critics and analysts worried that Jin's actual purpose was to isolate Daimon City by threatening its only friend within the region. With the Archduke away from the Central District, there were calls and petitions for the Archduke's defence army to at least patrol Parry City in case Jin ever wished to invade it.

And that was what everyone would have thought Sir Peru Peru would do but he did not. In fact, he subsequently released a statement of what Jin had been telling the mass media as well as affirming his trust that Daimon City would not lie and break their words. After this, Sir Peru Peru alleviated the masses stating that he had also struck a deal with Lord Jin that the soldiers would move away after four days in order to ease the anxiety within the citizens of Parry City. However, he understood that the safety of his people was of the highest priority and therefore would bring in troops and defences to ensure that they would not be ambushed.

From the standpoint of Daimon, especially the Interim Leader, Jin knew that Sir Peru Peru was hiding something. If it was not for the Empire's Mechanical Dragon in Parry City's territory, no sane Lord would even agree to have a huge military presence right outside their doorstep. The tension was a little high but everyone was still doing business as usual.

There were no heightened security checks nor any imposing roadblocks which would stop the flow of goods. If anything, the measures were gradually loosened and the people were travelling to and fro without too much of a disruption.

At the same time, the outpost was being erected but instead of the major security defences to ensure the dungeon entrance was well protected, the first few things to emerge were huge tents and medical facilities as well as a working canteen that could cater for hundreds. Crates of emergency supplies were also brought in including blankets, warmers, and cans of waters as if they were preparing for a disaster.

The Parry City's intelligence could blatantly see what was happening from the outpost and they reported directly to Sir Peru Peru which made him confused. Why would a security outpost for a dungeon require disaster management items while the military was doing drills that involved carrying light equipment. He honestly wanted to call Jin once more and ask what kind of game he was playing but the issue that clouds his mind is not the assembly of Daimon troops right outside their borders but rather the hunt for the Mechanical Dragon.

As promised, the Mechanoids that came in from Daimon arrived not just in time but even earlier than usual and for some reason, Diamondz had decided to give 30 more Battle Mechanoids for free, enabling them to have a more extra platoon of Mechanoids under their possession. Yet that extra mechanoid power could only add as cannon fodder as the Parry City Military find themselves in a quagmire.

Reports had shown that the Mechanical Dragon had become even more violent and capturing it to disable it had proven to be ineffective. In fact, the monster became even more erratic in its pattern of travel that many within the intelligence service feared that the next stop would most probably be the city itself.

That was when Sir Peru Peru had no choice but to not divide his troops any more and decided to use the convenient excuse that Jin had provided to strengthen the city's defences as much as possible. When the citizens saw even more Mechanoids, tanks and anti air defences rolling in, they were worried that a state of emergency would be declared and that was only day two of Jin's occupation near the border.

The Grey Bear Squad who had been staying in the hotel had reported the situation as well as sounded out the locations of the possible defence emplacements that the military had put. The intelligence service did pay a visit to the Grey Bears and requested them to return to their country as soon as possible or else they might get arrested but Diaz had been pressuring them that they were under Diamondz Corps and not Diamon Military.

The soldiers had no choice but to oblige that corpo immunity though Diaz also felt that when the state of emergency had been declared, they could be rounded up. Just as both the Grey Bears and the citizens of Parry City had feared.

It had been declared.
