Chapter 1123 - Aftermath of the Demopolis Raid Instance

Two weeks after the end of the first Demopolis Raid Instance, the focus had completely shifted on the best ways of defeating the Ooofpa Loopas.

Once the mechanics had been figured out, the fights had mainly become about completing the raid to earn points. Most of such Raid Instances had been filled to the brim with people on an hourly basis and the mode of play had been made easier since the Demopolis City that they used was being upgraded consistently.

In most raids, the instance would reset and the Pandarens would start from zero once more. But for this particular raid, the remnants of the previous fight had been deliberately left to show the consequences of the various instances before them.

This included the broken walls and destroyed sub urban areas as well as the tanks. This was worsened whenever Kraft had decided to tune up the difficulty allowing the Bosses to overtake and win the Raid Instance. Although they did not trample the place, they did leave behind some very nasty Bone Spirit Demons.

Thus, there was continuity in those Raid Instances where the Pandarens were tasked to retake Demopolis City to fight against the new wave of Ooofpa Loopas.

And once they had won back Demopolis City by killing the Bone Spirit Demons residing in the area, the City would then magically refresh their ammunition, walls and defensive instalments for the incoming Pandarens to play properly. (Lest the other debris was the way.)

The System even gave out raid points for clearing the debris and rubbish being left in the instance and they were designated to throw it into a Lost Tech Recycler which had been given a set of cosmetic inscriptions to look like the sludge monster in the Hot Springs Instances. Though the System had recommended throwing in the Sludge Monster to work with the collection of rubbish, Kraft did not bother approving it at all.

Still, these instances were sufficient to generate some form of media influences for certain live streamers to comment and talk about. As a result, they had made their store's cute little announcer Bear Cub One take the opportunity to create its own channel and comment on the raid instance on a daily basis.

Kiyu was involved with the project and figured they should ride the current wave by making an official Vtube and Metube Channel to promote Dungeons and Pandas. They also created one on Twitcher, the overseas streaming channel so that they could exploit the money from the rest of the world too.

To her surprise, Bear Cub One was doing rather decently and already had over forty thousand subscribers in the span of these two weeks. Banking on his success they started having giveaways with some special figurines and even opened merchandise stores for both local and overseas audiences.

Meanwhile, Jin might have been away from the shop but he had made a lot of progress in clearing his backlogs. And the biggest success was that they had stepped into the realm of making Virtual Reality a possibility.

He and Rei (who had been summoned by the System as the intermediary between Jin and the science team) had managed to create the very first working prototype of a headband that would allow their customers to bring their very own dungeon stores into their comfort of home.

While of course, Jin did not have the expertise to create such a device, it was a piece of cake for Rei since such technology had been readily available in the Mecha World. Sebastia, the Battle Maid Minotaur, had already been scouting the Mecha World in secret and had been able to obtain it without much trouble. The only difference between the prototype and the VR playset from Mecha World was that the way the cultivators would be transported.

Unlike the Mecha World where the players were transported into a server and go through out of body experiences, the cultivators in Jin's world were to be teleported into the System's database. This would allow Jin to guarantee his customers that his servers would be hackproof and always evolve to suit the needs of 'better' hardware.

But the hardware was just one aspect of the creation of Virtual Reality. Initially, Jin was worried that the System would not be able to handle the workload and that there were insufficient processing capabilities to hold the various instances. The System took this opportunity to reveal its brutish methods to its User, ensuring him that they would have sufficient processing capabilities.

Since the System was insistent on improving the reputation of the Panda Clan, Jin decided it would be a waste of time bothering with ethics and arguing with the System at this stage. Might as well produce work that would earn him money and think about how they could go more 'eco-friendly' later.

While it's true, it was still simple enough to create instances compared to the real world examples, there were many things to take note of. From a grand story plot to what would drive the economy of his Virtual Reality instances.

Was he really going to create an entirely new world or should he just make several instances and patch them one by one? Either way, it would take considerable time and effort, neither one he had to spare, despite the luxury of the System's ability to time compress.

For example, NPCs might not be a problem but the stories and lives to make the place an experience not to forget was another thing and the System was not well versed to create a brand new fake life.

That's one of the reasons why Jin had communicated with Rei a lot. Aside from him being an engineer from the Mecha World, his reputation for creating stories was not something to scoff at.

As such, Jin came to the conclusion that the best way to solve that issue was by 'employing' a group of mangaka artists into his clan so that they could assist with making with the NPCs, and perhaps give him some inspiration with new areas as well. If possible, they might be in charge of creating sub stories and bringing in more life for the Virtual Reality instance.

Besides, if Jin was going to dive into Virtual Reality, he needed the best of the best so that no one could beat him to it!
