The Dragon Devils and Goblin Wyvern Knights were surprised that the humans piloting the spitfires were more than just competent. They were able to survive the onslaught by the flying rats and remove the pesky ones from the dragons’ bodies, allowing them to finally move free and reign control of the skies. Now knowing that the Flying Rats were a menace that was not supposed to be underestimated, the new wave of rats were quickly annihilated by the Dragon Devils’ intense breath of lightning flames
As if that was not enough for the Rooster Elites, they continue their fight head on with the Demon Rats fighter planes. When the Demon Rat Air Force thought that they finally had an opponent who they could counter attack and win against, the Rooster Elites shot them down with the 20mm cannons on the side of their planes and shredded their units in minutes.
Some took evasive movements but they had forgotten that the airspace was extremely tight and some crashed into their own flying rats while others were killed by the Dragon Devils when they disengaged from the spitfires. The viewers who were watching the current scene held to the edge of their seats as they had never seen a dogfight this intense.
Most movies hardly showed air battles of this scale and with the somewhat carefully selected angles despite it being live had made the stream all the more exciting which streamers commenting on it reacted explosively to the current video. The streamers had been trying to fish for comments since Day 1 but after the appearance of the Royal Zodiacs, there was nothing much except for the occasional highs in this raid.
However, Day 3 went into a complete reversal with the monsters’ arrival and the viewers keep coming in. Royal Zodiac Rooster Head Mu Ji who was monitoring this current stream was more than satisfied with the money she had spent and now understood why the Snakes had decided to devote almost its entire army into this raid.
She contemplated sending more pilots into the fray but the price for renting an additional spitfire had caused her more than just a pause. When she checked her Pandamonium app, the spitfire’s rental price suddenly went up insanely as if Jin knew what she was thinking.
“Either that businessman is taking the opportunity to rip me off my money or his supply of spitfires as ‘fake’ as it is limited.” Mu Ji knew how difficult it was to replicate fighter planes within a dungeon instance. Even just having a simulation exercise for taking off and landing had already cost hundreds of thousands based on the current dungeon supplier contracts so Mu Ji knew that for that same level of cost to allow her elites to fly was more than just a boon.
Mu Ji might not be sending more upon seeing the price but she did contemplate asking her secretary to look into investing in Jin’s Dungeon Supplier store. If anything, she finally understood how shrewd Jin had been to invite the Royal Zodiacs to his dungeon instance.
She had finally experienced how his dungeon instances were different from the usual suppliers and saw first hand the advancement in dimensional technology compared to the ‘high tech’ ones that the current contracted military dungeon suppliers had boasted. She was also sure that with the Royal Zodiacs’ appearance on stream, other countries’ intelligence agencies would be looking at his stream with great intent.
If anything, this PandaVerse was essentially a major PR session not just to the rest of the other Royal Zodiacs but to the rest of the world as well. With his affiliation to the Royal Zodiacs kept to the highest classification of secrets as of this moment, he might be able to get other countries’ defence ministries to make contact with him.
Obviously, the major superpowers like the USA and UK would not bother since they were wary of China herself but Mu Ji was counting on Jin to get contracts from countries like South Korea, Australia and Singapore to earn their money.
“But I am getting ahead of myself. Maybe Jin could not see that far and he coincidentally managed all of this.” Mu Ji thought to herself as she saw one of her elites even do an acrobatic 180 degrees flip with his spitfire to evade and shoot the enemies’ fighter plane down.
Just when she was getting her high from her elites’ achievement, the stream suddenly switched to a group of unknown planes flying into the massive hole. Upon the explanation by Bear Cub One, they were identified to be the Royal Zodiac Snakes’ Nerodia planes. Those warthog fighter planes lookalike zoomed passes through the battlefield and provided support for the ground troops with heavy gatling gun suppression.
Demon Rats who were caught in it had no way was guaranteed to die by the heavy gun fire and as the Nerodia gained altitude, they did not stop but flew faster so that they could get into the city centre. Their main objective was shock and awe by zooming in quickly with their mana engines and sending a barrage of rockets to destroy the buildings in the building. Without bomber planes, their damage was limited but they concentrated on buildings that were detected to have the most activity (Based on Pandamonium App)
? Obviously one of such attacks was on the Demon Rat’s High Command but the rockets on the dark tower had no effect as another shield protected the High Command. Only from chatter from the hearing bugs that Jin could identify that the magic shields that were protecting the High Command were not from Demon Rat Mages but from an artefact. He quickly contacted both Weslie and Gold to ask if they knew about the artefacts held by the previous Scholars and they were not entirely aware if they belonged to them.
But both of them confirmed that they would not be surprised if they had such artefacts.
“Then why did the both of you not have any with you?” Jin asked, now curious why the scholars he recruited were kind of ‘poor’.
“Master, we had made lots of progress with Qiu Yue leading the charge. We had cleared at least three kilometres of the tunnel.” Weslie reported, ignoring the question.
“Zeru is doing the same as well but we should be able to progress faster since he said he had just finished warming up.” Gold did the same and Jin merely sighed telling them that if they needed any transportation vehicles, give him a holler.
“If that’s the case, can I just build a damn train? Those rats just did not want to give up and we should just blast through all of them to reach the Undercity.” Qiu Yue asked as she was sick of beating those rats. “For all we know, they are running back now while the front keeps us occupied.”
“Reports from the System said that there was not much movement by both sides of the army withdrawing but it’s your battlefield,” Jin replied, making Qiu Yue chuckle that she really had full reign of the current situation.
“Then alright guys, time to make some way for me to go through!” Qiu Yue said as she cracked her knuckles.
