“Does the User wish to expedite the entire war scenario? It would inadvertently affect the PandaVerse Festival’s schedule.” The System queried.
“System’s right you know? This World Spirit had already been suffering for some time, what’s the difference with another few days?” In a rare situation, Kraft had supposedly aided the System.
“Not to mention, I do not think you have that many things planned for the ending of PandaVerse Festival other than a big celebration. You had already called in favours, brought in Singers and Bands for the past few days.”
“The Virtual Reality Instance is still in beta testing and though people are enjoying it now, officially incorporating the ‘Corpse Catcher’ technology would be a better solution for the way forward.” The System added, to support the case of not hastening the current war scenario.
“Urghh. Even though you are right, we did have a plan in the event that we had cleared the raid early. So, why can’t we just improvise with that particular plan? The fight may have been over but surely we will need to several sweeps to ensure all the Demon Rats were killed. We cannot even let one escape in the event that they would mutate like the variants and start reproducing.”
“That will be quite anticlimactic though.” Kraft shook his head in disagreement. “If the ending of PandaVerse Festival is like this, it would be criticised harshly especially when all eyes are on us after you pull the stunt of revealing a number of Zodiac Heads at the start of the festival.”
“Let me worry about that for now. System, we will go with that particular backup plan of revealing to the Pandarens that they could have a possible farm of their own once they rid the Demon Rats in the Northern Region.”
“User, are you sure that is a good choice? The System initially went with the backup plan mainly due to the fact that it was not profitable for us to clear the war in less than seven days. Also, we would be at a loss despite the profits if we were to send everyone in without knowing if the Demon Rats would have an extermination plan such as a nuclear bomb. Judging based on what the System had gathered from all possible information from the surviving Demon Rat Researchers, a nuclear bomb equivalent using lifestream energies had been manufactured and kept.”
“Is that true?!” Jin looked at Transquick who was still fixated on the Metal Box Artefact.
“Is that true?!” Kraft’s eyes were filled with delight knowing that there was finally something worthy of his destructive calibre.
“Hmm? True what?” Transquick broke his trance from his theory crafting and ensued with some irritation.
“You guys built a lifestream energy bomb?” Jin asked as if he needed to verify the information at the very moment as if his life depended on it. At the same time, he tried to shut Kraft up who was walking toward him, wanting to grab his prized researcher and give him a hug. (Although it was pretty obvious that he wanted to take a closer look into his memories and learn where the bomb was.)
“Lifestream energy bomb? Oh, that piece of wondrous marvel that Borat did. Well, now I know why he wanted to create such a weapon of destruction so badly considering his allegiance with the Mage General…” Transquick clicked his tongue twice and an assistant came by to ask what was required of the Research Head.
“Do you mind getting me my tablet as well as the mechanical book of records if it had not been broken by the aura blast from just now?” Transquick asked and the assistant instantly grabbed them from the side, already prepared what the Research Head had wanted after hearing the queries from the two humans.
“Ah, brilliant.” Transquick smiled ever so slightly and tried to turn on his tablet…until he realised he needed power. Kraft then nudged Jin and the Dungeon Supplier reluctantly obliged by teleporting in a portable power generator since he was the one who requested the information.
“Hmm, yet another tech which I have never seen before. But the wires seemed to be similar to ours. I guess, with a bit of tinkering I should get it up with no time.” True enough, Transquick took a few tools that were lying around in his utility belt and he performed some ‘cut and paste’ and voila! The power generator was able to be attached to his tablet, allowing it to power up rather quickly.
“Call me a genius~” Transquick was elated that he was able to transfix two different pieces of technology from different worlds and utilise them at the spot. As much as the two humans were urgent and hungry for information, they were equally curious about how the tablet boots up Operating Systems, and the user interface, they both wondered how different or similar the two world’s technology would be.
Soon, they found out that it was nearly identical, but akin to the 80s version of Disk Operating System (DOS) where it was a list of commands with the limited user interface. Yet, Transquick navigated through his tablet rather quickly and was able to find the lifestream energies entrance.
“Huh… its location is kept secret even from me who has the highest access to the said database,” Transquick said and Kraft who already got bored decided to grab it from him and fiddle it himself.
In a few minutes of tapping furiously on the tablet’s keyboard, he finally found out that the location was not just top secret, it did not exist. “What a waste of time.” Kraft sighed as he threw back the tablet to his researcher.
“Does not exist? Does that mean it’s being taken out of its inventory?” Jin asked and Kraft slapped Jin’s back for stating the obvious. “Then System, are you able to track the Lifestream energy bomb with your scan? Surely, with an intense-”
“Ah, you won’t be able to detect with usual means. It’s kept in a similar metal box like this artefact right here. It will deflect any magical signals since the bomb itself is sensitive in nature.” Transquick said as he showed the both of them what the metal crate that held the bomb looked like.
“Damn it. That means there’s a high chance it could actually be deployed to the ground.” Jin said and Kraft merely shook his head.
“Guess, it’s up to the Night Foxes to search for them again. Bossman, go sit up in the command room and make sure the attrition of fight is well-”
“No. This time, I will go.” Jin said as he fiddled with his phone and transferred a buttload of System Points to Kraft.
“Go settle your new researchers.” It was pretty apparent Jin did not want the bomb to fall into the ‘wrong’ hands.
