Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 1613 Defending Daimon -Part 2

?

Xiong Da finally met up with the rest of the group as they compared their ticket numbers. "Urgh, I am so far away." Yue Han, the Blind Bat Cultivator said as he stared at his phone pathetically. 

"At least you are still within the seat limit. Imagine the rest not knowing when they will get their turn." Xiong Da said as he patted Yue Han.  Everyone as usual was waiting in line for the event to start as people were finally discussing what was going to happen subsequently. 

There was little to no information for some reason everything was kept quite secretive as for the fact that this was a Virtual Reality demo within the Dungeon Instance. Some people found it odd that a dungeon supplier was making Virtual Reality but given how their experiences were so unreal, they also believed that they might be the ones that could create such a crazy real life virtual reality. 

What's more important was that there were rumours of it being deployed in every part of China if this test was successful. They were not sure who leaked such a rumour but it would be extremely enticing to hear since that would mean a VR MMORPG could be in the works. 

Xiong Da and a few other Pandawans on the other hand had already tried it before. It wasn't the best demo they ever felt as they still think the Dungeon Instances was still a better experience for an out of body kind of gameplay. (Although they had no idea that they were still within their bodies and the places they had been through were 50% always real.) 

But they knew that Jin would always make things better and this demo would be a test of whether he could really push and improve what he had done previously. Maybe it would be more dumb down, or maybe it would be more realistic like his dungeon instances, Xiong Da and friends will never know until they go try it.

Yet as the anticipation grew, a Red Panda  NPC jumped around, attracting attention to everyone until it stopped where Xiong Da and his gang were sitting. "Mr Wa Xiong Da. As the number one supporter of Dungeons and Pandas, we cordially invite you to enter the dimensional instance first. You have a 15 minutes headstart compared to the rest as you get to enjoy the sights of the dimensional instance that houses our VR pods and have access to the latest tutorials on how to get used to your new avatar." 

"Wowwwww, jealous much!" Yue Han said and Xiong Da smiled widely as he placed his hand on the Red Panda's paw and they teleported. 

"Too Bad- Oh we already teleported." Xiong Da wanted to make fun of Yue Han for not working hard enough to be in his position. (Although Xiong Da was way way wayyyyy older than him.) 

However, before he could even think of Yue Han and the need to tease him, he found himself in a dimensional instance that was equally out of the world. It was like a giant exhibition dome with the exception that the ceiling was made of glass and the patterns on the glass had an archaic feeling to it even though the interior designs of the dome seemed to be inspired by simplistic modern western sci-fi designs. 

All the curves and slopes with different shades of white had shown that this was like a place of peace advocated science rather than a place to play Virtual Reality. And those VR pods felt as if they were pods for hibernation as they were placed in various rows. They were more akin to the sleeping pods where people dived in and found tranquility when they emerged. 

To Xiong Da, it might feel like they purposely went for such a design to calm down the minds of the people who played Virtual Reality. After all, there were times when people might get so insanely crazy or addicted to VR that they had forgotten about Reality itself.  This was a place for them to return back to reality and get back to the waking world. 

So as Xiong Da wondered about a little longer, he finally found his pod at the corner where it was demarcated as number 01. He thanked the Red Panda by rubbing its head and after which he got into the VR pod to start the VR creation process. 

It was only after he entered the pod, that more Red Panda NPCs started to emerge everywhere. "Everything seems to be fine and Xiong Da had already had his soul extracted. Sorry number one supporter for using you as the guinea pig but it looks like we can now officially bring everyone in since I have managed to create the last 2500th seat for the Virtual Simulation dive." Qiu Yue said to herself as she commanded her Red Pandas to come out and start to holler their customers into the VR dimensional instance. It might not seem like much but creating those 2500 VR pods was nearly an impossible task as Qiu Yue was saddled with other responsibilities. Jin simply had to throw stunts like this.

But any later Jin might complain to her again which thankfully he did not due to the concerns that he had.

As Jin had noted that the East had been controlled by the current attacking soldiers and volunteers of  Daimon City, the notion to put the cultivators in the Southern region was a little half hearted decision as he could have merely transported them all to the West for them to handle the current invasion that the Metal Ogres posed. 

There was no reason or perhaps insufficient reason to put them in the Southern region unless he was expecting a resurgence of monsters coming from the Eastern front. Most of the senior members in the military council of Daimon City had stated that it was an unlikely issue that such an incident could happen but none of them were too scared to confidently say that it would not happen. 

Besides, after what had happened previously where Jin and his ragtag squad of Mechanoids suddenly came flying from the sky and breaking into the Daimon City had already surpassed most of their expectations of what should usually happen. Even this current event which Jin's hunch had made it possible for them to at least prepare a hasty defence of the West and organise an assault force against the East, was something they never would have thought how their day would be when they got out of their beds.

However, Jin figured that if he were to listen to the military council's advice, he might been thrown into a dilemma if things were to go badly in the Eastern region. While it was true that the cultivators who were beginning to enter the fray after a quick introductory training on the basics of virtual simulation could be 'reused' because of how the soul extractor and inhibitor machines work, he did not need to worry for that he would lose that group of cultivators since another batch of customers will come in eventually. 

Rather, he was more afraid his Eastern Assault forces will be decimated, resulting a spent force that could not be used to fight against the forces at the Western Front. While it was more pertinent to keep the Metal Ogres on the Western Front at bay, because of their difficulty to kill it, Jin figured that it was a wiser choice to split the cultivator group into two so that the Eastern Assault Force could be more efficient to kill off the Forest Trolls and later push to aid the Western Front defences by speeding through the city.

"Lol, why am I thinking so much? Aren't the cultivators my property?" Jin suddenly had this thought to himself when the military council members' movement were hectic. "I should use them however I want as they are the trump card for this entire battle even though their numbers only amounted to only 2,500 of them."

Thus, he decided that he would do just that and begin to gave the orders to System but then the System queried whether if his decision was final. This was because, as the time flowed differently through the Synthesis World and Jin's World, most of the cultivators had already completed their Virtual Simulation training and they were already idling around for the main mission to start. The System had even provided them additional advanced simulation training that could earn them some extra Panda coins as pocket change while waiting.

"Ah I see. If that is the case then there is no time for second guessing. I will address them the moment they enter the Synthesis World."
