Chapter 1513 To Fill The Stomach
Back in the Synthesis World, Nie had the fortune of good, well minded friends informing him that the attack towards Mount Sunn was more or less confirmed. There were more commanders on site and the private corpos particularly Diamondz had even decided to enlist the help from the Mission Command Centre by posting a.s.sistance to take over Mount Sunn"s Workshop.
While there were some minorities who disagreed with such furious acquisitions of a.s.sets from a former famous Master Mecha Smith, the majority followed the crowd and accepted the request since the money awarded for a.s.sisting with the battle was said to be tremendously rewarding.
It was considered a raid request where the people who contributed the most to the fight would be awarded the most amount of money. Not to mention, those commanders were given incentives and perks to purchasing upgrades from the private corpos stores.
Even though the entire shopping street worth of War Maidens had already been taken up by Diamondz, there were still upgrade packages, accessories and weapons to be bought, and those commanders who were going to a.s.sist with the raid had a 250 points voucher that could be spent prior to the raid, giving the commanders the extra sa.s.sy ent.i.tlement to aid with the fight.
With such information at hand, only Nie panicked, asking if it is wise to really stay in this particular workshop. Of course, there was no doubt that the area was rather fortified. With a few automatic artilleries as well as anti air guns for far range targets and automated machine guns along with a few physical traps like the spikes on the high walls for close range encounters, it was not a workshop to be handled lightly by any.
However, with the advent of dozens of commanders coming to a.s.sist alongside the Private Corpos, it does seem like the walls of this workshop would not be sufficient to stop the incoming invasion.
Yet, to Jin who was already a master expert when it comes to defending battles of attrition, had believed that they could deal with it. "I can fire up those Mechanoids but even them alone would not be sufficient to fight against such a large number. They are using a high number of low value units to destroy your few but high valued units." Old Fammet said that even if he were to reactivate the Mechanoisd and reequip with the materials that Jin had acquired from the Variant Dungeon, it would still not be sufficient to fight against such a horde. And this was coming from such informal sources and rumours. Who knows whether Diamondz would enlist help from the other private corpos and bring Old Fammet down for good in one setting.
"The only good thing that comes from this is that if they are still fighting you when you are being instated as lord, they can expect a huge lawsuit case coming for them from me." Page smiled as she seemed to figure out the loopholes in the current ruling system.
"Then I guess we will just need to hold till then, right?" Jin said and Page nodded her head firmly.
"Captain, you made it sound so easy…" Diaz sighed as she knew that he was going to come out with some crazy plan.
"Don"t worry, he will make it easy to understand." Lynn smiled as she was looking at all the weird meat and her systems had been beeping at her consistently. Even though she was transferred into this particular world, like Jin, her connection to the Sub System was not severed and it was interpreting to her all those items that they had collected.
There was an a.s.sortment of vegetables, herbs and meat that she could make use of if she have access to a few extra spices and some basic cooking ingredients. However, this was a workshop and she already knew Old Fammet"s status. Thus, when she casually changed the topic and asked Old Fammet whether he had anything she could cook with, she was prepared to be disappointed.
"Ehh we have a few cooking stuff on the SUV, Jin insisted that we bring them even though we said we can put more weapons to help with the fight." Click said and Lynn gave a quick glare at Jin. Not the death glare kind but the happy one.
"I am not the greatest cook but I know my basics," Jin said with a smile. "So, I should have all the stuff that you need. As for your instruments, you need to look at Old Fammet."
"I did make the basic stuff…although I find it weird that you outsiders used such a deep round oval shaped cooking pan." Old Fammet did make a basic set of kitchen "instruments" for Lynn as requested by Jin but he did not know the use of them.
"You knew that I would want to cook a meal, don"t you?" Lynn questioned with a sly smile on her face.
"It"s been some time since I had your food. It"s excruiating to go through the days eating stale bread and military rations." Jin"s stomach answered on behalf of his master.
"Then, give me a moment to get it up while you talk with your team about how to deal with this mess," Lynn said as she requested Old Fammet to show her the way to the kitchen.
In the meantime, while Jin waited for his long overdue meal, the Blacksmith had been scolded by Lynn for having such a terribly maintained kitchen. She beckoned Diaz to a.s.sist her as the rest talked about the strategy they were going to have.
One thing was for sure, the Mechanoids that they had acquired would be used solely for the defence of the workshop. Jin told them that even though he can control them, it was better for them to operate the artilleries and other defensive systems. The extra hands would also be good to make sure any who managed to sneak in would be dealt with as well.
"What? So we are going to fight entire armies with just a squad of Mechanoids?" Click could not believe it. "Please tell me it isn"t true. The last time we did that, I had a heart attack. Not that I actually have a real heart per se but you know where I -no, where we are coming from right?" She looked at her teammates, hoping for a united response from the group but everyone had mixed feelings about it.
"Was it so hard? You War Maidens were previously run of the mill Mechanoids not too long ago and you were able to defeat numbers more than your fingers combined can count. We just have to prepare for it, right Click?"
eαglesn?νel "Oh no." Tellie chuckled as they could see that Click was going to be the main star of this fight. Even the main star could sense the amount of work she got to do just by the look of her team members.
"Yes Click. The entire forest is at our disposal. Besides, we need to clear the s.p.a.ce for the new village that I am governing, right?" Jin smiled devilishly that the Fox himself would approve of it too.
