Chapter 1220: PandaVerse Discussion

“Enough of that, any more of these leaks and we will really be potential targets for the internal affairs to look at us.” Ke Loong said as he stopped Kong Rong from saying too much.

“Not to worry. The System is capable of washing your memories to a clean slate. If the User or Senior Executive Ke Loong requires the information, the System would provide the necessary data back for review.”

“Are you really sure you want to let the System hear all your ‘encrypted’ information?” Jin emphasised how the System was a stalker who will always deploy extreme means to eavesdrop. 

“Honestly, that would be the most ideal. If we ever lost any agents in the process, the System would definitely pick it up for us to follow up. It’s a win-win situation for me if the System could also provide backup immediately to the site or even extract my agent out of the sticky problem they would be in.” Kong Rong replied, stating that it was a small price to pay for the System’s assistance.

“That would definitely cost a fair sum of compensation depending on the situation.” The System did not seem to reject the idea, knowing that it was the best way to earn money and learning the volatile situation outside of this store.

“Ah whatever. you know the risk using the System, so it’s your call. Anyways, do you want to give it a try? The Virtual Reality Instance? I believe I have a sufficient number of sets for your entire department to try it out. Just don’t stay too long in the avatar customisation menu.” Jin asked Kong Rong but he kindly rejected the offer.

“Nah, I’d rather keep the surprise when your PandaVerse festival arrives.” Kong Rong remarked until a hand wrapped around his shoulders.

“Bro. When was the last time you and your crew had some fun together?” Ke Loong asked and Kong Rong tried to think hard but it seems there was no answer to that question.

“Besides, don’t tell me that your entire department would have this kind of free time with all the cases that you are handling.”

“That is true. They all had always wanted to try Jin’s dungeon store and never had the chance until now.” Kong Rong nodded his head in agreement.

“Am I right? Jin, just boot it up and we will give them a tour they will never forget!” Ke Loong said which caused Jin to chuckle.

“What happened to discussing about our new Panda Inc and the upcoming PandaVerse festival preparations?” Jin queried and Ke Loong immediately brushed it off and stated that they could do all those on the Virtual Reality Instance too.

“Alright. System, you heard our executives.” Jin wanted to give the System a few strings of orders but the System interrupted and said everything had already been prepared for them.

“The System had also the Restaurant Train to run through an underground tunnel with Yun assigned at the station waiting to escort them to the said instance for them to try out the Virtual Reality instance.” The System stated that this would then allow the trio to talk more over the issue at hand and give everyone the time to finish up their food or else, Lynn would not be too pleased with leftovers. (Kong Rong even told his colleagues beforehand to clear the dishes or ask for the remaining food to be packed as takeaways.)

“Well, if the System had planned our night’s itinerary, there is no reason to reject it. Let’s finish what we began.” Kong Rong commented and he restarted the conversation asking how Jin was with the Farming World.

“Behind the scenes, we have bought sufficient equipment and also trained men for this fight. We have a fairly capable militia from the Southern Region as well as some soldiers from the Dungeon World.” Jin reported.

“Some? From what I heard from you before, the Farming World’s Northern Region was infested with thousands of rats.” Kong Rong was concerned whether Jin was indeed ready.

“We are in the process of getting more to join with the allure of money and some prestige but they have their own problems to tend to.” Jin told them how the Seven Cities were trying to get their independence from the Church of the Afterlife as well as the internal strife after the military rebelled against their local government.

When Kong Rong listened to Jin’s short summary, he immediately understood since Earth’s political history was way more brutal and harsh than what was happening in the Dungeon World. 

“Qiu Yue also managed to gather a few of her friends and we are testing out a telecommunications command outpost. They would think it’s a new sort of game but they are actually commanding my minions and monsters in real time.”

“Won’t that complicate your commands even further?” Ke Loong asked and Jin could not give a straight answer.

“There are too many hideouts where the Demon Rats are hiding and I do not think the System is advanced enough to provide strategic advice to my monsters. Besides, it’s not total command and control. The minions are sentient enough to know if it is a bad strategy or not.” Jin replied while picking up his drink to quench his thirst.

“Ah, so deployment of these ‘strategic advisors’ is just to increase efficiency. If that’s the case, do you want some of my men? It will no doubt give them some experience in commanding for future operations.”

“Lol, so you want to see whether the gamer peeps would fare better than your trained officers?” Ke Loong asked which Kong Rong nodded with some excitement in his tone.

“Hahah, I could look into that and the more people, the better. We might have a basic picture of how the rats are operating but without eyes on the ground, there is no way we can compensate without a cool head and wit.” Jin liked the idea as well while they continued to discuss how to integrate the Farming World’s situation as a major event for the PandaVerse Festival.
