Chapter 1324: “Let’s Try Again.”

“That Roughscream is surely a pain in the ass.” Bu Dong said as he cuddled his blanket in the Pandawan’s exclusive Recovery instance. “Sorry guys, I was not there to assist you all.” Jan Le apologised for dying a tad faster than the rest since she was killed during the assault of the Demon Rat Elites.

“It’s fine. In a way, you are our ace card up our sleeves if we fight against that stupid General once more.” Shi Zuo said as he touched Ms head. The Mad Monkey cultivator could still feel the aftereffects of getting pierced right through the head even though he had no injuries to his entire body. “You lot should get more rest than usual. Nurse orders.” One of the Senior Panda Nurses said that she was not letting the rest of the Pandawans off until they got sufficient rest especially when they had been at this for at least five hours straight.

“But the raid points…” Bu Dong frowned at the Panda Nurses stopping him from going out again. “The raid points could be earned again and this raid is not going anywhere even after the end of PandaVerse. While the mandatory rest period will be enforced, I will suggest to you all to at least browse and try out the other stuff that is available exclusively during the PandaVerse Festival. “We could get lunch!” Luo Bo recommended it as she was famished from the fight. “Besides, do we really need to fight that boss again after that? We need to find a teleport circle once again and go through all that nonsense to fight against the Demon Rat General. Feels like a pain in the ass.” Luo Bo said as if ignoring the rest of what the Panda Nurse had suggested but the NPC was merely doing its job to promote the PandaVerse and not force it down their throats. (With the exception of the rest period since the System had detected significant fatigue levels in the Pandawans and they needed to rest or it would merely harm them long term, especially the number of deaths they went through fighting through multiple kill zones for the past few hours.) “Hmm… I deduce that killing that General will not change the situation much since there would be no way there’s only one general working in this particular war. In fact, that rat might have been a General because of his rank rather than his ability to command.” Bin Yong said and they looked toward him to finish the conversation. “But.. if we are able to kill him, we will not only earn a heck ton of points from the System and also reduce the kill count of the Demon Rats.”

“You make it sound like you have a plan to kill him.” Deng Long said and Bin Yong laughed and shook his head. “No way, you saw how strong he was? And that pickaxe was not just humiliating, it is definitely a magic weapon that is of a high tier. Maybe that Demon Rat is capable of using magic as well and did not use any of those because we are too weak” Bin Yong said. “Well, we were not prepared to fight such a strong foe from the start the moment we cleared the kill zone box. There were no such foes that came to the other groups when they slaughtered all the Demon Rat Elites.” Bu Dong said. “So much for re-arming ourselves and saying that we are prepared. We were too stunned to fight that Demon Rat General.” Luo Bo sighed and wondered if things had changed if they had prepared for a boss fight instead. “No use crying spilt milk We might have gotten that General either by chance or we cleared certain conditions that caused the General to emerge. No matter what, more Pandarens will die by him if we do not do something or he might even appear in the main fighting area doing more damage than the rest of the Demon Rats could do. So, we should focus on our next course of action whether we wish to do the same thing again or assist other areas.” Xiang Da offered his opinion. “I think we should continue to attempt hunting the Demon Rat General. Like what Xiong Da said, giving the General a consistent target to hunt would be a better solution than leaving it alone. Or else, the rest of the Pandarens might suffer and that would be a hit to both our morale and numbers.” Bu Dong said but Deng Long laughed at his decision. “You probably just want that heck load of points and perhaps achievement upon killing the Demon Rat General, right?” Deng Long who was in the opposite bed of Bu Dong had suddenly been hit by a random slipper. “Ahhh… If Deng Long and I could use our robots from Supa Robot War, that would be fantastic.” Bu Dong said to himself how the current assault was based only on the manpower they had. It did not have any flashy items that were being used, unlike the defensive war against the Demopolis Demons during the Pandapolis raids. But that thought alone was more than enough to trigger a realisation within him and he decided to entertain that thought by asking the Senior Panda Nurse who suggested the idea of looking around the PandaVerse festival. “Hey, Ms Nurse. You said something about there being more things to look at at the PandaVerse Festival, is there an event storefront that we might have missed out on at the start of the festival?” Bu Dong asked and the Senior Panda Nurse nodded her head.

“Yes, there is one at the store instance island. It only had been set up right after the celebration and you can also use raid points to purchase items from there.” The Nurse replied but Bin Yong looked at Bu Gong with a curious look “Why do you bother with that? We can buy almost everything now on the online store. Even the redemption store can be used with the Pandamonium App and they would be transferred to us.” Bin Yong said and Bu Dong shook his finger at him. “Had you forgotten how Jin always loved the brick and mortar store experience or how there were promotional foods that were on sale before we got on board the train? There is no way he would not put some exclusive stuff in the physical store when right now you can buy anything and everything through the updated Pandamonium App. He is not the kind who would let the old traditional shopping experience die down.” Bu Doug was confident that fin was hiding something in those physical stores that the other Pandarens might not have noticed.

“Heh. I agree with Bu Dong. We should go and have a look after grabbing some grub. I am freaking hungry and these sandwiches are not enough – Sorry Nurse, it’s not a major complaint. The quality is good but not the quantity.- not enough to satisfy my hunger.” Xiong Da said and everyone laughed a little.

They hoped Bu Dong was right as they felt that they might not have a chance against the Demon Rat General even if they tried again..
