Chapter 1364: Jin's Request to the Pandawans
"What do you mean by doing you a favour?" Yue Han asked as he was munching on the snacks that Jin brought. "Also, where did you get these chips?" He asked as he looked at the transparent packaging, meaning it was not any major brand but probably home made or by local stores.
"Ah, those are just some chips made by our fellow penguins. They were testing out a new batch of products and asked me to try it." Jin responded before also answering to the expected questions from the Pandawans.
"Don't you think that the raid had been made to be far too difficult? I mean sure, the Pandawans and even now the Royal Zodiacs had participated. But something is missing, right?" Jin asked and everyone knew the answer being long term fans of the store.
"The monsters." The Pandawans said together as they acknowledged the fact that they were having fun raiding previously because of the aid of Jin's monsters helping. They might be powerless at times but the monsters will always come to aid them whenever things get too tough. Even for the past two days, the Pandawans were hoping that the monsters would appear like a miracle and yet not a single one had emerged to help them at all. They were all by themselves fighting against the Demon Rats.

Unknownst to the Pandawans and the rest of the cultivators, the Demon Rat Generals actually thought the same as well. They had seen monsters and humans going hand in hand fighting in the Eastern and Western tunnels but there was none in the capital. Therefore, it made the Axe General a little more than annoyed.
He was holding back the bulk of the Demon Rat soldiers, his advanced weaponry and even the fighter planes which Gnawbones wished to command so desperately. He was waiting for the monsters to appear in the main capital but they didn't. Many thought that the monsters had broken with the humans but that theory did not hold much water considering they were doing that in the other regions.
That was why Cinderclaw was puzzled as to why the monsters were not appearing yet. Mainly because Jin was technically still planning for it. He had sent one of his trusty associates, Hou Fei to scout the insides of the Undercity. While Peppers had already done a primary scan along with the aid of the Spirits of the Land, what they do not have was the actual numbers and situation that was brewing within the Undercity.
In the meantime, Hou Fei was also planting bombs along the way so that he could wreck some damage that would hinder the Demon Rats if need to. Else, he kept moving forward to the Undercity's largest building, the Black Tower as the humans dubbed it for being so ominous. If Jin and the rest of the Pandarens wished to win, they need to have additional information about the Demon Rats.
Right now they have almost nothing on them and Jin had been using the Pandarens as bait, hoping to see some of the elites that the Demon Rats were hiding. Else, the cultivators were good fodder killing machines. By now, the Demon Rats would have known that the humans would be useless to defeat because they will keep coming back but the variety of monsters they had encountered was too many so they could not know whether they had the same features as the humans. The Demon Rats could only assume that some of the monsters have ressurective abilities as well compared to the truth where all of them do once they were under the System's command.
"Are you implying that you will lend us monsters?" Yue Han replied and Jin chuckled a little while shaking his head. Initially, he did plan for the Pandawans to have their own team of NPCs and monsters under their care but as he learned more about his own minions, he decided to not give such a privilege to the cultivators. In fact, the monsters should be the ones leading the cultivators but Jin knew that the monsters had to prove themselves as formidable before any humans would want to follow them. He knew that a few of such monsters already had such a level of respect and influence in the community, especially the goblin trio.
"Hah, please. If anything, we should be following the monsters." Bu Dong had decided to try the chips since Yue Han was munching them in handfuls. That sentence alone was enough to change the flow of the conversation greatly to Jin's favour.
"You know how we used to have those Wide Active Response Events (WARE) in the Demopolis rates?" Jin said and the Pandawans who had participated in it knew of its existence as it was those events where they could earn quite a fair bit of extra gold and points. "I am planning to see them as a comeback for the third day onwards. That way, you guys do not feel too aimless as well and I can finally bring my monsters' AI in."
"Well, what does that have to do with us and your favour? If you want us to join the WARE, we would join in automatically without your request at all. It was a good way to get some pretty good raid points." Xiong Da said and Jin shook his head.
"Don't tell me you want us to be your WARE initiators?" Shi Zuo who was at the far end of the group's conversation spoke up. He believed this was in line with Jin's possible request since more of the WAREs were created by the instance's AI and Jin laughed as if he was right on the money.
"Yes, Shi Zuo, you got it absolutely right. I want to be you Pandawans to be my WARE initiators. If you had not noticed, the Pandarens are lacking leaders. The Royal Zodiac Soldiers might be organised and Pandarens do follow them from time to time, but in an overarching picture, everyone is doing what they want. I want you guys to take the lead since you all have a higher status compared to the rest of them. And as a reward for completing WARE, you guys can not only get Coins and Raid points, my monster AIs can come in to help. Take it as a condition to make the raid instance a little easier," Jin said and Shi Zuo began to feel there was a hidden agenda in all of this.
And this time around, Jin ignored Shi Zuo's glare and ignored the hunch he might have by continuing to insist that this was his request. This was mainly due to the fact that Jin would like to recruit his group of loyal customers as part of his Royal Zodiac Clan when the push turns to shove in the future. This was one of the tests to see if they had the leadership to do so now that almost all of them had proven to be capable cultivators.
But for now, he was merely giving them the impression that he was doing it so they have a better immersion for the raid instance.
