Chapter 1424 1000 Demon Rats Left
"1000 Demon Rats left!" The counter indicated in Jin's store instance as well as within the Pandamonium App as midnight approached for the last day of Pandaverse Festival. The Demon Rat Armies within the Eastern and Western Tunnels had been thoroughly annihilated, allowing the Western Kingdom's Knights to go on a field trip into the undercity.
They were amazed and at the same time horrified by the scale of the city created by their dead enemies. There was no way the Western Kingdom would be able to defeat this particular enemy without the aid of Weslie and her new allies.
And it was to a point where the captains of the Knights were thinking that it would be best to earn some brownie points with these new allies by charging in to search for the remaining Demon Rats as Weslie had briefly said that these allies would be the ones creating a new nation that would inhabit the Northern Region.
In the meantime, the Eastern Coalition of knights and mercenaries were itching to loot the place but Gold knew them too well to allow them to proceed any further. He made them stop short before reaching the Undercity and gave a command that each one of the soldiers would be searched before returning to the surface.
This was also to ensure that no possible Demon Rats' eggs or their relics could ever surface again. Some thought that they could get away with it but they had forgotten that Gold was a scholar and he possessed certain abilities that could emanate a god. But everyone within Jin's Army knew that Gold was merely using the System as a method to analyse them in order to make sure that they did not steal anything.
A few of the soldiers were honest about looting and Gold allowed some trinkets to be taken back but those who thought they were confident to evade Gold's 'stare' were stripped of their rewards and given a basic stipend for their services rendered. They were also blacklisted by the System to not be able to come work in the Northern Region when things were set up in the future.
While the Western Knights were more β¦honourable, Weslie had decided to do the same when they were returning to their country via the tunnels or sea. Other than that, Jin's Army was all retiring from the 'raid instance' now that the System had done another deep scan and ensured that there were only a thousand rats left.
In turn, it was the Pandarens who would be doing the hunting as the System had set up yet another event to entice the Pandarens to play along. Since there were only a thousand Demon Rats left, the System had to increase the points with a multiplier bonus, allowing those who find and kill these rats to have an added bonus to their points.
The bonus increased further when it was left with five hundred Demon Rats and this prompted both Pandarens and Pandawans to search for the remaining enemies. Even the Royal Zodiac Teams who were incognito had decided to play along as well, especially the Royal Zodiac Rat Clan where their speciality was in forward scouting.
They might not be the best combatants when dealing with the Demon Rat Warriors but the Royal Zodiac Rat team was no doubt the strongest when it came to searching. They utilised their five senses fully to find their target and ensure that their target would also be tagged so that the rest could follow up if the targets managed to escape. π³π³π²π¦π€πππππ·π¦π.ππ¨m
It was an eye opener for the System to learn more about their new abilities though it did compute that the current generation of Royal Zodiacs was only 10-20% strong compared to the ones who nearly annihilated the System.
While the System was not hasty to form a summative argument, learning from its past mistakes to not underestimate the Royal Zodiacs, it begin to be increasingly clear that the selection of members into the Royal Zodiac Clan had been relaxed and possibly diluted to ensure that the modern needs of the society marred with administrative issues were fulfilled.
"User might have a chance to be at the top of the food chain, assuming he could climb the country's latest politics." The System thought to itself as it had already revised its mission to be foolish and kill the Royal Zodiac Clans unnecessarily.
Now with the cleanup of Demon Rats, the System was calculating how much it had to spend for the actual cleanup of the area. The city was torched not just by the explosions from Jin's side but by the Demon Rats as well. And considering that the city was attacked, the Demon Rats Generals had decreed all of the Demon Rats had to fight regardless of age and gender. (Even though most of the labouring Demon Rats were males, the females that were left had been forced to contribute to the fight by being assistants to Birth Mothers or acting as their guards.)
This caused the System and Jin's army to have no choice but raze quite a fair bit of the city to ensure that they were properly hunted down and killed. It was a massacre to ensure that no remaining Demon Rats were to survive. It was easier for the cultivators since they assumed that it was just a game but they never know that the Night Foxes were doing the hardest part of the cleanup.
Assassinating the children of the Demon Rats so that the Pandarens could maintain their sanity of not killing the young. After all, they all assumed it was a well defined simulation and encountering a child to kill would no doubt bring up some questions which might force Jin to possible and yet unnecessary investigations.
Thus, the Night Foxes were ordered by the System to do such a dirty and essential job. Even so, not all the Night Foxes were as merciless as their counterparts especially when the Demon Rats were merely a baby and were sent to Birthmother Lisa Von Crustfingers for care.
And even though Jin was currently asleep, he was the one who gave the order to the System to do so and even personally gave the order to massacre the entire Demon Rat race to ensure that this vile plague would not emerge in this Farming World ever again.
