Chapter 1619 Defending Daimon -Part 8
When everyone heard his voice, there was only certainty that b.a.s.t.a.r.d was no doubt the person controlling the strings behind all of this. Yet at the same time, they were relieved and perhaps even more delighted to hear where he had gone all this while. Even though he was not exactly in cordial nature with them since they were undoubtedly of a boss and customer relations.h.i.+p that they believed had exceeded such threshold.
However, that moment of reunion had to stop for now as the Eastern Daimon a.s.sault Force had indeed come through and they were providing the a.s.sistance the Pandawans were so desperately needed from a manpower perspective and also from a firepower perspective.
In the meantime, the commanders who were seen from afar with their drones were already impressed by the tenacity that these small group of unique individuals had portrayed. Their Mechanoids and even trained soldiers were not even this perceptive when it came to fighting the Forest Trolls in close combat. Most of them would either die from attempting to block the hits from the Forest Trolls or spread away just to avoid getting hit.
However, because of the nature of the a.s.sault, there was no way stepping back, only forward. So, most of the Eastern Daimon a.s.sault Force members were utilising long range techniques to defeat their foes.
It was a battlefield of attrition until the arrival of the Platoon Pandawan which was able to break the stalemate by forcing the Forest Trolls to learn that there were some enemies within their own rank and file that they had to eliminate. And upon learning how the Pandawans fought, the commanders had decided to give them the support fire they sorely needed to ensure that they could win the fight.
Eventually, the Pandawans became the vanguard of the a.s.sault force as they continued to push through hoping to minimise losses as much as possible. It was also at this time when most of the Pandawans had finally got used to their new "avatar" bodies and they were able to conjure their chi from within to be used on their weapons as well.
The fight seemed rather possible from their perspective to the point they finally were more aware of their surroundings that they got to use the internal console that their avatar bodies had and finally replying to Jin on the situation.
"Bosss Jinnnnn! Where had you been all this while?" Yue Han gave a reply to his previous message
"Ehh hahaha I was a.s.sisting with the creation of this Virtual Simulation and handling all sorts of c.r.a.p like this?" Jin replied to the entire platoon of Pandawans.
"Aren"t you on some journey in search of enlightenment or was it some mode of seclusion?"? Yue Wen, Yue Han"s sister spoke next.
"Wellllll, this is actually harder to explain than I could but in summary, I did find some enlightenment in making this particular Virtual Simulation."
"So far, I can say that this is far more stable than the other Virtual Simulation that we were in. Also, I do not know how to describe it… erm, it felt natural?"? Xiong Da added. "Oh and the movement is much much more fluid, unlike that previous VR test you gave us to try. The one was kind of bulls.h.i.+t if you ask me."
"Did you not say that that was okayish?" Jin felt he got cheated by his number one supporter as he tried to remember if Xiong Da ever complained.
"Yea I did, it was really not bad and there was potential to revolutionise it to so many other ventures and I continued to feel that way. That is why I did not mind investing in this."
"You probably just want to hide the money you earn. You? money laundering piece of s.h.i.+t." Bu Dong chimed in.
"Just say that you are jealous of me, don"t need to accuse me for being so all too capable." Xiong Da replied. "But in any case, this feels no different from real life with the exception that I do not really feel my chi until now. If this is the product you are going to dish out after this beta test, I can ensure its potential would be soaring like mad and making you possibly one heck of a billionaire."
"Right? As much as I like to tout that my previous product was a wonder hit, this virtual simulation is simply another level altogether. There"s no way I think my compet.i.tors will ever be able to win this tech for the years to come."
"So the reality of having a VR MMORPG is really going to come true." Yue Han said to himself before everyone heard an "Ack!" from him.
"Play, play, and play! ALL YOU ever think is about playing. Do you think Mom and Dad would be interested in raising an unemployed person?" Yue Wen shouted and even though she turned off her mic option for the group chat, everyone could hear it from Yue Han"s.
"You get a job first!" As the brother and sister continued to fight against each other, Jin interrupted the flow and got back to business.
"Platoon Pandawan, we will need you to rush in, acting as not just the vanguard but the tip of the vanguard a.s.sault. Your objective is to get to the Dungeon Entrance as soon as possible to stop any further incursions of the Forest Trolls out of the dungeon."
"You mean this is a monster outbreak kind of setting? Not some planned invasion by the monsters?" Bin Yong asked and Jin acknowledged only the first question while not commenting on the second as he roughly knew this was an attempt to remove Daimon City from the Map by elements far bigger than him.
"So be wary. I like to think that they are all Forest Trolls but my algo generator might pull out something tricky which may jeopardise this current a.s.sault." Jin cautioned and everyone within the chat understood something. They were not able to get any information prior to their drop landing because of this.
