Number One Dungeon Supplier

In the ever-expanding landscape of Jin's new reality, the weight of his responsibilities loomed larger than the horizon. It was both a blessing and a curse to return to the waking world, where the tasks ahead felt monumental. While he had gained an entire world to cultivate, teeming with potential for producing goods and items for the Mecha Universe War, the urgency of the current world's expansion was less pressing than he had anticipated.

The thrill of new beginnings was tempered by the daunting knowledge that work awaited him, regardless of the challenges he had just overcome in his subconscious journey. "Yun, can I ask you to do a huge favour?" Jin's voice resonated with newfound determination as he recognized the value of his companion.

It was time to be more proactive, and Yun's capabilities could be harnessed more effectively. She was no longer just an information counter assistant; she could take the reins of a burgeoning enterprise that could thrive under her management.

"What is it?" Yun's tone had shifted dramatically from their earlier encounters. The edge of formality had melted away, replaced with a warmth that signified her willingness to assist. Jin could sense her eagerness, a refreshing change from the rigid interactions they previously shared.

"I need you to handle the manufacturing expansion I set up in Beijing. Can you reach out to our dear Dragon Leader and gauge his interest in investing? I want to discuss protection for this venture, particularly from the looming shadow of the Banned Emperor." Jin's words were measured, each syllable carrying the weight of his intentions.

"In short, you want Kong Rong to ensure our operations remain discreet, to shield us from the prying eyes of the Banned Emperor?" Yun's perceptiveness shone through as she grasped the essence of Jin's request.

"Exactly. I can't afford to expose my higher level abilities to the Banned Emperor. Establishing a clandestine production site, or perhaps even a black site for future allied agents, would significantly bolster our defences, whether for immediate challenges or long-term strategies."

Jin's expression was earnest, and Yun nodded in understanding. "Then what's the plan for the Shanghai location?" she inquired, her curiosity piqued.

"The Shanghai site will feature automated vendor systems designed to streamline operations. I will set it as a gateway connecting directly to our dungeon supplier store," Jin explained, excitement creeping into his voice. "But don't worry—the customers who teleport in won't be leaving from here; they'll return to their exact locations."

"So, you're seriously scrapping the teleportation gates you initially wanted to implement?" Yun's brow furrowed in contemplation.

"For the time being, yes. I'm allowing only Kong Rong and a select few to utilize them. After all, that's part of the perks of being an honorary member of the Royal Panda Zodiac." Jin flashed a knowing smile, appreciating the intricacies of their world. As he spoke, Jin couldn't help but bring up the System window status, eager to glean insights from the week's statistics.

A 'long' year had passed since he last reviewed them, and anticipation surged within him. What had changed through his perspective? What new opportunities could be presented? Each number and detail held the potential for strategy and growth, a roadmap to navigate the complexities of their reality.

The air buzzed with anticipation as he prepared to modify the impending dungeon instances, a task that would not only test his skills but also bring together allies from far and wide. "System," he announced, a sense of determination in his voice, "I'm going to adjust the upcoming dungeon instances. This time, let's bring Xiong Da and the others into the fold. It's time to officially enlist them as Pandawans."

Before he could finish his thought, a sharp jab of pain caught him off guard. "Ow! Why did you beat me?" Jin exclaimed, rubbing the spot where Yun had playfully tapped him.

"Well, shouldn't you have dodged it? I did infuse it with chi on purpose," Yun replied, a cheeky grin spreading across her face. But before Jin could muster a retort, she added with a tinge of urgency, "Remember, I promised Lynn I'd be back for dinner." Enjoy exclusive content from empire

"How did you even know about that?" Jin's brow furrowed in confusion. "There's no way the System…" He paused, realization dawning upon him. Yun was not merely a guide; she can be an embodiment of the System itself, capable of perceiving more than he could comprehend. Perhaps, something that Ming said had changed her attitude when Jin was having his moment of meditation—or maybe it was more accurate to say, while Jin had been comfortably snoozing on Byakkou's soft furry belly.

"System, go ahead and notify the Pandawans, but hold off on the meeting until tomorrow. Also, prepare the Royal Panda Zodiac pins," Yun commanded, her voice steady to act as the guide she was supposed to from the start of Jin's journey.

"The System enquire the Guide and the User if you are certain about it? The last report indicated that the User wasn't keen on publicly acknowledging their ties to the Royal Panda Zodiac. Distributing those pins could subject User and the Pandawans to the scrutiny of other Zodiac Clans, possibly complicating matters further despite the leaders knowing your existence," the System cautioned.

"Look," Yun interjected, her tone earnest, "Jin has managed a kingdom for a year, often with minimal assistance from you. He's saved cities within the Synthesis World, even stepping in as an interim leader during crises. It's high time he had people working for him openly, not just hiding in the shadows. Representation is crucial and after careful consideration, I believe he is ready for this step." ɽἈΝŐ₿ËŠ

Jin sat in stunned silence, trying to process Yun's words and the weight of their implications. He felt as if he were perched on the edge of an abyss, staring into the unknown depths of responsibility. "Of course," the System continued calmly, "But if the User prefers to delay the representation, the Guide have no authority to oppose that."

Jin's mind continued to buzz with conflicting thoughts. Could he truly embrace this new role, this new identity?

"Yeah," he finally responded, his voice gaining strength. "It sounds like the right time. If we're gearing up to battle the Banned Emperor, tackle the Mecha Universe, and face that mysterious enemy that has both Celestials and Demons on edge, it's might be a good thing that we have a few more human allies we can trust." As he spoke those words, a flicker of resolve ignited within him.

The challenges ahead would be formidable, but with Xiong Da and the other Pandawans by his side, he felt a surge of confidence. The path to unity and strength was not just about fighting against external foes; it was about forging connections, building trust, and creating a legacy that would resonate through the ages. Jin rose from his seat, determination etched on his face. "Let's do this," he declared.

"I am not asking you to recruit every single competent human into the Royal Panda Zodiac Clan," she said, careful to weigh his words. "As much as you wish to grow your clan members, I suggest we keep it to a small group of people who would dedicate their time, loyalty, and expertise to our cause." His eyes glinted as Yun attempted to gauge his reactions.

"That is why you are asking only the Pandawans." He understood the dynamics at play, the intricate balance between ambition and practicality.

The Pandawans had been his focus for a reason and Yun continued to remind him of that. "I've also kept a close eye on their dungeon participation. Some may have a shaky foundation as mentioned, but their explosive growth — most of them hitting Grade 10 and above — shows they possess the raw talent to excel." Yun remarked.

"But do note that when you get them into the clan, you have to remember that they're often bogged down by their need for erm… essentials." Her voice dropped to a whisper, aware of the weight her next word would carry.

"You mean salary…" Jin replied, piecing together the puzzle.

"Erm… yeah," Yun admitted, the reality of the situation settling in. While passion and resolve drove the Pandawans, the harsh truth was that financial stability remained a critical factor in their dedication with the exception of Xiong Da.

"Okay, okay. I get where you're going with this," Jin reassured Yun. "Salaries are not an issue, considering the amount of money we earn daily—not just from this world, but from the entire multiverse we've traversed." There was a confidence in his tone, a certainty that spoke to their wealth and resources. "Once they truly become our Royal Panda Zodiac Pandawans, they would earn salaries on par with royal knights serving their king."

However, before Yun could respond, a voice thundered through the System Channel, cutting through their conversation like a bolt of lightning. "IHEARDHIRINGANDHIGHSALARY. DIDYOUEVENSEETHEFUCKINGEXPENSESHEETIPASSED. TO. YOU?!!" Claire's voice reverberated, her frustration palpable. The atmosphere shifted, tension coiling around the group as they processed Claire's words.

She was always straightforward, her fiery spirit often blazing through any hesitations they might have. "Are you serious right now?" she continued, her words full of an exasperation that only she could muster.

"We have a chance to build something incredible here. Pandawans! Knights of the Panda Clans! Well erm in chinese context I guess, they are like Captains and Marshalls... anyways-you get my point and you're worried about salaries? We've got the resources; it's time we invest in the talent we need to achieve greatness!" Jin felt the rush of adrenaline while gleeing like a mad man; Claire's outburst seemed to ignite something within him.

But no. She was extremely adamant that Jin think through his words more thoroughly.
