Chapter 1195: Relic Hunting

While it had been a long day for Jin with the opening of the Cultivation Zoo and the expansion of his stores in the Tree Mall, he decided to take the remaining time of the day to wind down. First by checking on Kraft since he was supposedly dancing mad in the Church of the Afterlife's Ivory Tower of cold hard cash.

"What?! It has already been a day?" Kraft laughed as he never felt better crushing people's skulls and stealing their relics to the point they started to be warier about him. The troops had finally understood that the devil in a trench coat had a different purpose than most other 'participants'.

But since the guards were on defensive rather than on offensive as usual, Kraft and his Night Foxes decided to go against them full force. The Drows were no doubt tired from the constant fighting but they realised it was also a form of training to see how far they could stretch while maintaining their form.

Some of the guards even shouted at them to just go into the Ivory Tower where there was more gold and lost treasures to be found but Kraft simply refused. To him, he felt that he could not bear to leave any stone unturned especially when these treasures had one basic function aside from the various enhancing magic capabilities.

The ability to resurrect on the spot.

If it was not for that particular ability, most of those 'relics' that Kraft had plundered from them would have been classified as plain junk to him. But the instant resurrection was something that would benefit one particular person if he was in a tight spot. And that was none other than Jin.

Still, these relics only had a number of magic uses in them, and like an Aladdin wishing lamp, the moment those uses were spent, the relic would certainly be a trash item. So, he and the Night Foxes were collecting them whenever they saw a guard wearing them. As much as Kraft treated Jin quite harshly, the Old Fox still had some feelings for this young master of his especially when he learnt the hard way that he could somewhat match his skills. (Obviously, he treated him as a person of interest to be his rival, Kraft still had his obligation to keep his master alive so long he did not break his promise for using the System abusively.)

"Are you planning to continue to stay there? Now that I have officially cleared my Cultivation Zoo instance, I am looking into probing the defences of the Rats. The reports of them attacking the resistance towns are getting lesser day by day. We need to survey their defensive response as a feint." Jin said.

"Nah. Don't do it. The moment you touch those rats, they will drill full force for their objective and you will have less time on your end. I suggest you continue to build your Virtual Instance while gathering the required resources for the Rat War. Besides, didn't you say the Symposium is like -I don't know erm, soonish?" Kraft replied honestly for the first time in a long while as he smacked one of the guards at their butt before ripping the armour off them like some magician's act.

"Fine. I guess you are right. After all, the symposium was supposed to be the start of the expansion of Panda Inc." Jin nodded his head.

"So yeah. Don't you worry about me? Even though we are all tired from stripping guards naked, we would retreat when it is getting bothersome. Hehe." Kraft replied before cutting the communication.

"Does that mean I really do have some off duty time to myself?" Jin felt weird not working on an issue so intently to clear it.

"Not exactly. If the System were to establish a list of outstanding issues to be fixed, there would be at least a dozen of problems in your current agenda. From the testing of Ayse's new weapons to looking into the investments of certain products which we had procured from a set of black market traders."

"Huh, what? I can't hear you. All I hear is the sound of sleep." Jin said as he touched his bed for the first time in a long while. The System stopped its rambling for a moment before deciding that Jin did deserve a rest.

"Good night User even though it is now a little too early to certify-"

"Good night System." Jin said as he cuddled himself under the blanket and slept. The System immediately dimmed the lights and closed the curtains in his room while ensuring the temperature was regulated so that it was optimal for a good sleep. After all, it was beneficial for the System to do some side tasks without Jin's meddling with it as well as allowing him to enter into cultivation mode.

At the same time, the System also ensured that the room was prepared for time compression and dilation. After all, everyone knew that there were times where Jin could somehow fall into a deep sleep and would not wake up until the time was right. Regardless of the noise or alarm reminders, they were useless to wake the Panda Cultivator up unless the System took drastic measures to force him out of his cultivation stance.

Thus, it informed everyone, especially the Leader Minions and Sub System Users that Jin had decided to go into Cultivation mode.

As for Jin, he dived into the state of subconsciousness to find himself in the middle of nowhere with loud explosive noises in the background and dead bodies around him. He tried to orient himself since it was the first time he saw such a scene. No traces of the mountain that he was in, nor the remnants of the forest where he stayed with Ming. It was a war ridden wasteland with the smell of charred soil and decomposed bodies.

Soon enough, a group of horsemen with spears and axes emerged from the bloody landscape charging right in front of him with the aim of not just killing him but against the opposing group of armed horsemen from the other side.

"Fuck. I wanted a break or a simple tea session with Gramps. Why am I in this kind of life or death situation?!" Jin said as he unsheathed Bam and Boo with his Inverse Eyes activated.
