Chapter 1549 Catching Up - Part 11

The Dungeon World was in a hot mess. It had always been that way even before Jin came and stayed that way. Nevertheless, there was indeed a modicum of peace with what Jin had built.

Pandapolis was growing to be a city that scored respect among both Demons, Monsters and Humans. For a city that had only been around for the least amount of time, it boasted one of the strongest defences within the vicinity.

Considering how the news and rumours were spread to the surrounding cities, citing how the truly terrifying Demon army had been defeated not through an invasion but a defending battle had made Pandapolis a curious sight to many. And once they visited, many had decided to stay.

At first, there was a lack of population which required the Demon Citizens from Demopolis to fulfil essential roles. But now that the Demopolis had turned into a military focused city, there was work available back at their homeland and the majority returned. Satisfied with the quality of life in Pandapolis, not to mention subsidised housing for the returnees, the Demons were more than happy to take up jobs within the Fortress City.

However, that was not only the case for the returnees. Those who came to these two cities found out that most of the jobs were well paid or at least to their perception, they were being paid better than other cities.

This was because all the items they manufactured had a direct impact on Jin's store. And that was where all the money was coming from. Well, that was supposed to be the case until Kraft found out about the Church of Afterlife's Money Tower as he dubbed it. He and the Night Foxes raided it regularly ever since their first major raid that had depleted their resources to a certain extent.

The Church never had such an extensive ambush for years and perhaps centuries. So, the loss of wealth while negligible in the grand scale of schemes, was flabbergasted by their ambush. The only thing they could do was to replenish their ranks as soon as possible to prevent such an ambush.

However, that was almost impossible.

Ever since that fateful raid, especially after the Demon Rat War, Qiu Yue found out that Jin had overprepared the minions. The Demon Rat War was supposed to stretch for months and the minions were preparing for long term assaults. While in terms of resources, the Red Panda User was no doubt delighted that they did not waste too much money and in fact earned quite a fair bit from the Pandastic Festival.

The only problem was that the minions were unsatisfied. If Jin was around, they knew that he would get into trouble that would keep them occupied. In fact, most of the minions called him an accidental warmonger, or the master who was always too unlucky with fate. This was because he was always dragged into a problem that involved a huge amount of fighting.

It was not until Jin had officially disappeared into the Synthesis World that Qiu Yue realised how much fight the minions would be hungry for. Surely, the cultivators were scratching some of that itch but most of the minions had to restrain themselves since the bulk of the cultivators were still low grades.

That was why when Qiu Yue read reports on the 'Money Tower' as part of her daily updates from the Beaver subordinates, she realised that this was the best way to release their pent up frustrations now that there was technically no war to wage. (Also because Qiu Yue did not want to get into any mess since Jin was not around.)

The Money Tower was one of the best ways to earn money and not earn any enmity especially since the Church of the Afterlife had deemed it as a trial for the entire Dungeon World to attempt to earn their gold. (Considering how they are hoarding an awful lot of dungeon dollars and resources from the resurrection process, this was the only way available for the Dungeon World citizens to earn their money back.)

So, Qiu Yue figured that if they were going to fight against the Church of the Afterlife, she might as well take their money while they were at it. However, even though the Church had publicly said that there would be no retaliation, the Lady Boss still deemed it important to fight under anonymity as much as possible.

With the help of the Science department, all the troops that were participating in the fight had masks similar to the cultivators which would not allow people to identify them easily. And to complicate matters even more, Qiu Yue purposely chose flags of cities that were staunchly allied with the Church of the Afterlife to raid the Money Tower.

By doing this, she hoped to perform some animosity between the cities or at the very least send inquiries to those cities, distracting the Church agents as much as possible. Thus, from Goblins and Orcs, newborn Demon Rats as well as Farming World Southerners were being sent into battle. Demons from the Demon Armies were also sent into the fray but they took up sufficient disguises including restricting their powers so as to not be discovered.

The fights were intense especially when Qiu Yue made them go in with a small budget. "Since we are already raiding them, we might as well take their weapons and armour to use. So salvage them once you kill them and use it against the enemies themselves." Kiyu said and showed a clip from the Dungeon World where the Goblins were indeed refitting themselves for the fight as the Orcs pressed on. Vice versa once the goblins were equipped. It was quite a hilarious scene as the looting was extremely rampant and since most of the minions would 'disappear' upon death, they took those weapons and armour with them as well.

From there, they were modified and repaired so that they could be used in the subsequent raid. Thus, the fights at the Money Tower, a once feared place, were under constant assault and the Church of the Afterlife had to pour more resources into it. It was to a point where it became news and even adventurers became interested.

Seeing how there should be no retaliation on their cities, more people flocked and waited for the main bulk of attackers to come to fight. Once Jin's minions emerge to challenge the Money Tower, those bystanders become supporters, hoping to get a gear or two so they can sell them.

It was no doubt frustrating to the Church especially when they were losing resources not just from the looting but the raiding of their money chests as well and this increasingly became a concern for them that the Night Foxes who were spying on them had reported that there were even high level meetings because of it.

"But who cares? So long as they are bleeding money and I am earning them. That's fine. Besides, I am killing two birds with one stone. Or maybe three birds. The Night Foxes can infiltrate even more easily into their ranks while I distract them from the bigger picture " Kiyu quoted Qiu Yue and Jin chuckled seeing how the story had developed.
