The Strange Adventure of a Broke Mercenary

Chapter 1340: For Plushies



Chapter 1340: For Plushies

The PandaVerse Festival continued throughout the second day and Jin had started to pull out incentives for the ‘less hardcore’ cultivators who found the Great Demon War to be tiring. After all, no ordinary cultivator would like to stay in a warzone for days, right?

So, Jin had made a rotary model for the discounts, so that Cultivators who were within the Store Islands Instance would have the opportunity to try all sorts of instances. However, when it comes to the major service instances like theme parks and the cultivation zoo, they were teleported to the main store island instance because it was inefficient to make copies of such instances. As for the smaller ones like the Hot Spring Instances, those service instances had multiple copies in the various themed store islands. 

And because of the theme islands, Jin had ensured that the discounts rotate through the islands as well. This means that not all islands have the same discount activated for the particular instance. The Western Themed Store Island could have their hot spring instance discounted but not the Eastern Themed Store Island. This enabled the cultivators to perform some island hopping and they could see the various types of instances that were available. 

For example, the Western Themed Store Islands have hot springs that were designed towards the Roman bathhouse rather than the traditional Japanese hot springs. The only thing that’s constant through all the islands was the Hidden Gem Night Market because Jin did not have time to convert them.

This brought the cultivators who had decided to spend a week at Dungeons and Pandas an entirely new experience. Even if they wish to explore outside of the Tree Mall, they would be allowed in again depending on their voucher tier, else they would be teleported back to the main store instance.

Jin had also prepared a few concert events and even a daily lucky draw which utilised the Event Island Instance so that people could enjoy and earn prizes as they enjoyed the concert. Ke Loong’s event department had liaised with Kiyu, allowing the dungeon supplier to invite a few relatively famous singers and comedians to the Event Island, prompting the crowd to be excited with the lineup. 

Kiyu even managed to get a few overseas singers/groups and particularly famous ones like Melton John, Lady Baba, XNXD, White Pink and LIZA to perform on those days causing a wild rage of concert tickets to be sold out consistently. The System knew that these famous lineups would cause people to rage for the tickets and even execute scalper services to earn more money so the System made it such that the selling of tickets would be randomly selected from the people who keyed in their interest to participate. Only when they were chosen, they would be offered a chance to buy the ticket and the ticket would be tied to the account and that ID. 

Since the ID was their National Identification Number, there was no way they could sell it and no one could fake the System. (IF they did manage to do that and were subsequently picked up, the System would be very interested in that person’s talent. Kraft too!) There were even arena battle showings in the Event Island featuring the different types of monsters that Jin owned. 

Obviously, the monsters knew that they were merely sparring but when they were on stage, their mindset somehow changed. (For example, Dread Reaver, the Death Knight was super competitive when he fought against Sandy, The Sand Witch, nearly making a mess when the Sand Witch covered the entire arena with sand just to counter his Death God Moves.) Oh and did Jin mention there was betting allowed as well? The winners even had a chance to win a special plushie and the minimum bet was just one bronze Panda Coin, allowing almost everyone to try it. 

And talking about plushies, Jin did create a brand new plush specifically for PandaVerse. The Panda was holding the entire earth in its arms with the word PandaVerse 1 in the middle of the earth. (As if he was indicating that there would be second, third and more to come.) And to make things (worse) more exciting, Jin had purposely created a variety of plushies for this PandaVerse. (To be exact five.) If they tried out all the PandaVerse activities. From concerts to trying out the new Virtual Reality game that Jin had opened on day two.

Collect all of them and they will receive a special plushie that is limited. This caused nearly every plush collector to go FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out.) and they started to try and find ways to get it done. But Jin did make it easier for plush collectors too as all those plushies could be collected when they reached a certain raid point threshold, obviously when they were placed high up so that the collectors or regular Pandarens could either try out all the events during the PandaVerse Festival or grind high enough raid points to get the limited plushie.

This slew of events and activities gave the Pandarens the flexibility to do whatever they liked in Dungeons and Pandas. People were already commenting how this was superior to the National Dungeon Supplier Symposium by leaps and bounds, and they were showing it on social media as if this was the event they had been waiting for years. 

The fruits of this festival were sweet and this could not be done without the months of preparation they had done. But as the event was not done, Jin and the System continued to be wary of external threats as well as the volatile situation within the Farming World. From what they gathered through the Spirits of the Land, the Demon Rats were holding their trump card as well.

“This feels like Plan G1,” Jin said to the System but the System begged to differ, stating that it could be Plan G2 considering the similarities. “Gah, you feel that they are gathering for ‘that’?” (They are naturally talking in code…)

“High chance. Considering how they had evacuated the Demon Rats beneath, it felt that it would be appropriate for Plan G2.” The System reported.

“Then I guess having the Void Being is actually a surprising boon.” Jin smiled as he continued to monitor the situation.
