Chapter 1622 Defending Daimon -Part 11

As the Metal Ogres one by one fell to the ground by the Pandarens, soldiers were not the only ones that had been dispatched to the area. Several teams of Resource Workers were also sent to the area with armed escorts.

Thankfully the terrain from the southern area had made it rather accessible for the resource workers to enter as they too risked their lives to pick up the dead Metal Ogres. But why would they need to do that?

That was wholly because of the fact that they needed to obtain materials. The Metal Ogres as the name had implied had metallic materials imbued onto them and their deaths made it easier for those metals to be extracted. That means that those dead Metal Ogre corpses were the best kind of loot Daimon City could ever get in order to get by this crisis.

Surely, they are working doubly hard to get the barrier generator ups but what if it fucked up? Or what if it needed more time than what the timeline had been proposed? Or what happens if the barrier were unable to withstand the massive number of monsters attempting to enter? The destruction of the barrier by the Crystal Dragon had already given doubts to the people that the barrier generator could not be trusted and that was the same sentiment for Jin as well.

Despite consistent assurances from the military that the barrier could definitely hold this amount of monsters, they were not able to give evidence or past accounts where such a barrier had done such a magnificent job when Jin asked for it.

So, as the interim leader of Daimon City who was given the absolute power to protect the people, Jin was not leaving it to chance and some whimsy barrier which it had managed to break through. Thus, he got salvagers and resource workers compensated wildly to risk their lives so that they could get those Metal Ogres back to base.

Obviously, a few more shots were placed into the heads of those Metal Ogres before the transfer of their corpses into the lorries and trucks and then they were transported back to the factories for dismantling.

All these metals would later be sorted out as well and depending on their state, variety, and quality, they would subsequently be dispatched to different factories for processing so that items could be built. From ammunition to Mechanoids and even emergency food rations from Ogre's meat.

The bones can also be used as trench obstacles or even repurposed as simple melee weapons like the ultimate tool in World War 2, the Trench Spade- a multipurpose item that can be useful to kill stuff in close quarter combats as well as being used for digging their graves too. (Well, more for the use of creating trenches and digging for traps.)

Some of the resource workers who had seen the chaos that was happening tried to stay calm under the intense pressure to transport these Metal Ogres while not trying to get in the way of the Pandarens who were out there fighting intently against these monsters. In the meantime, the workers also picked up the dead Ogres' weapons and armour that were lying on the floor so that they could be either reused or be melted down as extra materials. However, they were not expecting much as those expert resource workers could see that these weapons were poorly made. Filled with many impurities, they could only amount to very little good useful metal left.

Still, having a small amount is better than nothing since every bit counts especially when they are already touching on the stockpile for this fight. They might last against the monster outbreak for a few days and maybe a week if resources were well managed and the defence lines hold but anything can go awry.

However, all was not lost, to say the least, and only Jin knew about it. Their agreement with Syn was mainly to ferry players into this particular Virtual Simulation to spice up the situation as well as for Syn to understand how the cultivators fight. This means that there is a certain amount of data leverage that Jin might have when it comes to players. He could make them fight desperately without any resources or be equipped sufficiently based on the data limit that Syn gave for each player.

Yet, the thing is that Syn and the others had no idea that humans especially in Jin's world are greedy people. They will do anything for extra rewards and Jin can facilitate that very easily by giving them the greed for more simulation coins, a currency that was currently not obtainable through any means.

And yes, that is to ferry 'digital' goods based on the data limit imposed by Syn and AI Administration as part of a quest. The System can easily create those goods since they did not amount to much in this Virtual Simulation once you know the codes. Still, it would be a breach of trust if Jin were to abuse it in such a way that Jin brought in items and cheated the current situation.

So, by keeping to the data limit per Grade 0 Cultivator that came in, Jin was able to send out fetch quests at the expense of their equipment. If they were able to bring the goods safely into Daimon City, the fetch quest would be completed and simulation coins could be earned. However, the current stockpile was still well within healthy levels and Jin had kept that idea as a contingency depending on how Daimon City could survive from this current battle of attrition.

Thus, it was still a decent idea to allow Jin to get extra emergency resources even though it would be marginal on the grand scale of the situation. The System who had peeked through Jin's head to learn about this massive pack mule idea made it confused whether Jin was going to fall into the dark side of bureaucracy or had the influence of Kraft finally caught up onto Jin's way of thinking.

Only time could tell and time was what they needed to also ensure that the barrier generators could be created again.
