Chapter 1642 Defending Daimon -Part 31
"The situation is as it is. Those guided bunker busters were useful in disrupting what they do but they are not giving up." Jin stated as he showed how they now started to use the s.h.i.+elds that they initially made for the monster lure pillar and now they had been used to cover what they had been doing.
"The worst part is, they are now putting in what they had created and started dis.h.i.+ng them out. There was a Metal Ogre who we considered a variant had emerged from the forest with a huge a.s.s sword. And that sword did not look like it was smithed. We were definitely it was being made since most Metal Ogres? usually carry a type of weapon based on their metal composition."
"But this one was different. He had the composition look of an Iron Metal Ogre but his sword had a dulled expression of red hues and orange hues. A little green if the colour sensor was correct." Jin said.
"And after a.n.a.lysing the swords that had been used by the Metal Ogres, this one was way out of proportion… So, yes. They succeeded in making a variant on their own and that motherf.u.ka was tough."
"Because the formation of alloys and their natural resistance boosted with the G.o.d d.a.m.n moonlight." General Ost sighed.
"Yes and Yes," Jin said. "Also, I did not expect you guys to be able to capture those few Forest Trolls."
"You are looking at that too?"
"I got to, it"s part of my job. In any case, I think that"s a good idea as evil as we sound. If those Regeneration Trolls can provide with healing remedies that would be useful for the humans, I think it would be rather profitable for us." Jin said without any remorse of using those digitally scripted monsters.
"I honestly thought you would execute me for this." General Ost shrugged his shoulders. "Considering how you said that you had placed all those old military f.u.c.kas in jail."
"Heh, I am more reasonable than you thought. In fact, I appreciate practical people like you. Did you actually show this to me to see how I would react?"
"Perhaps. Let"s move on since you had already approved of my capturing of those Forest Trolls for extensive research purposes." General Ost said.
"Yes, anyways where were we… Oh yes. They managed to kill it but it was pretty obvious the artillery bombardments had no effect on them at all. Maybe a little who knows, not like I can see their health depleting. It was only through another bunker buster that managed to melt that particular Metal Ogre and a few more shots in the head as the final nail to the coffin."
"I still do not understand how that will affect my current troop status and why not allowing them to withdraw and go into the battlefield works." General Ost wished that Jin would cut to the chase.
"I want you to circle around them and hit them from the North while searching for splinter groups of Forest Trolls that had left the area."
"That will be a huge waste of time and resources just for that minimum number of Forest Trolls."
"Then what if I tell you that this might hang on the balance of them creating the ultimate monster?" Jin"s voice got lower and more serious. "If the Metal Ogres can break other Ogres apart to join themselves together, what are the chances of them breaking the Forest Trolls who do not have the best of defences or offences but have unlimited regeneration under the moonlight?"
"They… Will create a beast with extremely high resistance to damage and unlimited regeneration of their own physique." General Ost finally got to understand Jin"s decision. "But don"t you think it"s far fetched? Perhaps they can only eat their own race."
"Then don"t you think it is far fetched that a mechanical crystal dragon just popped out of Diamondz Corps" lab, a renowned corporation, and broke the city"s barrier, causing you and your citizens to live in fear?" Jin returned the question with another question which forced General Ost to acknowledge the absurdity of the situation.
"I get your point. I understand the situation that might eventually pose a bigger threat to us than ever before." General Ost said and Jin nodded with a faint smile.
"Thank you, General. Since you are sending those Forest Trolls back, I will get Central Defence to a.s.sign a few resource workers as well as some escorts to take those Trolls back. And I will inform Denise about the incoming cargo of fresh experiments."
"Heh, to think that you said the Mechanical Crystal Dragon was a bane. And you are endorsing the Forest Trolls to be captured and experimented. If I were any more sinister, I would attempt to do the same and recreate that ultimate monster."
"Not in the form of a monster, but in the form of the ultimate Mechanoid. Dark days had fallen upon us General Ost. You saw how Daimon City had been left to her own devices and no other cities are willing to save us." Jin said.
"If Diamondz had already been doing experiments then perhaps we better make sure we can do this right as well. Otherwise, fighting that rumour Mechanical Crystal Dragon would just be a sad paragraph pertaining to Daimon"s legacy." Jin said and General Ost could see that Jin was also preparing for the eventuality against bigger odds.
"For a foreigner, you sure invested a lot of time and effort for us." If the Interim Leader seems so invested in Daimon"s future, then it will be shameful for me to not do the same. We will take your orders seriously." The Lead Commander of the Eastern Daimon a.s.sault Force agreed to Jin"s decision and they will follow as per his instruction.
"Thank you for understanding my part of the story, May Daimon persevere not just for this monster outbreak but for the future as well," Jin said, knowing that he only did this because the price of owning Diamondz and a major city"s approval at their side would be major upheaval to their future plans while Jin awaits his sweet release from the Synthesis World.
