Number One Dungeon Supplier
chapter-1620-9

The progress of the fight did not change much with the exception that the Eastern Daimon Assault Force pushing forward after the introduction of Jin's special reinforcements that came in. They had no idea how and where they were coming from but the only fact that remained was, that they were not enemies and even though their numbers were small, they seemed to be stronger than the usual reinforcement counterparts.

The Pandarens had the luxury of dropping at the Southern portion of Daimon City and their internal consoles quickly showed them where to travel next. Like the Pandawans, they also needed some time to readjust themselves after the drop landing but it was not as bad as the Pandawans. Because of the size of their landing pods and for the reason solely they were not going to be thrown into battle like the Pandawans, their pods had been equipped with additional boosters to soften the landing.

After which the landing pods were equivalent to trash being left in Southern Daimon. There was no use for it, unlike the situation for the Pandawans where it acted as a multipurpose tool where it killed, assisted and eventually used as cover for troops to hide from the Forest Trolls aggressive throwing of rocks and trees.

It did not exactly increase the odds significantly that it would aid with the Daimon Forces but reinforcements were still better than nothing. Their appearance had caused some distraction for the Metal Ogres who had been consistently bombarded by the defensive artillery that was coming from the city.

But since the Pandarens had entered their flank, they refrained from attacking at that area and instead provided additional troops to that area so that they could assist the reinforcements. At first, there was nothing much the Western Daimon Defence Forces were expecting from the Pandarens since they understood how strong the Metal Ogres were when it came to resisting attacks. Even though their defensive fire artillery was not making much progress the artillery commanders were requesting for unguided but concentrated bombardment to ensure that the Metal Ogres die.

Although that plan seemed to be a sure kill method that a few of the military council members agreed to it wholeheartedly, Jin did not approve of the plan. "It's a waste of resources which could be used for the long run of this current battle. If you want it, get by me how many bombardments are needed to kill one Metal Ogre and you do the math from there. After which, convince me why that particular plan would be more cost effective when we are currently working so hard inside and out to defend the city." Jin's reply left the others somewhat muddled in their opinions.

They knew that he made sense as the victory they had hoped for the Eastern Daimon Front to be clear of monsters was not in sight after all. They expected the Assault Force to reach the dungeon entrance about 30 minutes ago and that was their most pessimistic estimate when the plan was drawn. Now, they were only slightly halfway through the goal and required more time to make sure that it was done correctly.

Perhaps they were blinded by the victory that those Grey Bears had shown and thought that those Forest Trolls were easy targets. Now they understand that it was not only the Grey Bears who were especially competent but their defence troops and volunteers were not near the level of competence that the council was expecting.

Still, Jin did not wish to have a stalemate. If they could clear the Forest Troll while intermittently delaying the Metal Ogres, it was the best achievable result he could wish for. Fortunately, what he did not expect was that the cultivators he had sent in were proving themselves to be quite a force to be reckoned with as well.

Through word of mouth, most of the Pandarens placed chi into their weapons, mostly through the rifles they had been given, and started fighting the Metal Ogres on a large scale. Some of the Metal Ogres leaders were furious by their act and sent a pack to deal with the Pandarens.

To their surprise, the Metal Ogres were killed rather easily once the Pandarens had overcome their innate weakness. Those who were more in tune with their chi created elemental chi and they were even more effective against the Metal Ogres than ever before.

The loss of those Metal Ogres caused the leaders to be enraged and decided to send even more soldiers, believing that was the solution to the problem. By now, the Pandarens were already accustomed to the Metal Ogres' attributes and believed they were efficient in dispatching the incoming group once more.

This occurrence shocked the Daimon City's Western defences as they arrived thinking they had to save some ass and maybe say a prayer or two to the fallen but what they had was a different kind of scene. Instead of people, Metal Ogres were killed and the soldiers now understood that this might give them the edge they were looking for as well as a morale booster.

Thus, they quickly entered the battlefield as well aiding the Pandarens to the best of their abilities. The internal consoles within the Pandaren's avatars were subsequently attached to the Daimon Defence Forces and they too had a glimpse of the situation that they were in.

This might just be 2,500 people but a number of them that came in were not selected based on a first come first serve basis. Rather, the System previously chose them based on whether they had cleared dungeons in Jin's Dungeons and Pandas before and had gained a cultivation grade up as well. That was why the first wave of 'troops' that Jin had summoned were not some people waiting and got lucky to be in the first beta testing of this Virtual Simulation and rather, seasoned cultivators who had gone through dangers and fought monsters of high calibre before.

And he made sure they were goddamn strong. (or at least it looks that way! Tehee~!)
