Chapter 1809 Just Crown Me Already -Part 2
Bearling City was in a mess.
Without proper time to evacuate, everyone had to leave their belongings just to save their lives. That meant looting and all other sorts of crimes were inevitably going to be rampant the moment the Royal Guards were clear to the Dragonlings away.
Jin had expected some form of chaos but he was secretly hoping that most of it would be situated at the Bearling palace which was away from the residential areas. However, the appearance of the Mecha Dragon caused him to have such a thought to be cast away into the drain.
However, with the enforcement of borders by the Royal Guards to clear the area, Jin had decided to do something controversial as well. He called Denise and the Daimon Generals to fly in experts and specialists who deal with construction.
If they were going to fix Bearling City from all that mess, then it was better that they rebuild everything all over again. After Jin had a glimpse of how bad the entire city's infrastructure was, it might be better to build the entire city from scratch again…or so he thought.
The moment the experts and specialists quoted him the figures to redo the entire city, he nearly vomited out his guts. Even the amount of money that he had was not even 1% of the quotation that the experts had put out. It was to the point that he asked if that was even extortion.
"I do not remember building that 200 over floors for adventurers was that expensive, and that is rebuilding the entire district along with that skyscraper. But now you are telling me one house cost as much as rebuilding that entire district?" Jin asked and sadly the experts nodded their heads.
"If a fast paced construction is in order, we need to obtain the resources from surrounding cities and make sure that they can get more of those as soon as possible. The coordination to get the various materials from the limited supplies that the Empire had would be a challenge. That is why some of the money is needed to outsource our supplies to the other nations." The experts said and Jin realised that it was not possible to do so in such a short time.
"I understand if that's the case then we will do the rebuilding when I have the security in order. Looks like fast paced reconstruction would not be possible at all." Jin said and instead, asked the experts to do an extensive survey of the districts to estimate the amount of money needed for repairs.
In the meantime, the Rocketeers Mechanoids that the Archduke Dyke had bought previously was still left untouched. Jin felt that this was the best time to use them in this situation and the Royal Guards agreed to it. The Dragonlings might have already been killed but when the people were to reenter the cities, it would be quite the chaos as well.
Thus, those top of the line Rocketeer Mechanoids would be what's needed for the security of the city and keeping things in order. Denise had also promised a batch of Diamonds Security Mechanoids to be dispatched to the city to aid with the law and order.
Soon, the entire place had been crawling with those Mechanoids and when the citizens were finally allowed to return, they felt a little oppressed by the presence of those Mechanoids walking around with guns.
"Is this the future?" Some of them asked as they thought that this might be the way Jin was going to rule the Empire. Not exactly the best first impressions but Jin had iterated in public announcements that all those Mechanoids were there temporarily to maintain security. "Unless you wished to be looted, robbed, or have your things stolen, then please allow me to have those security Mechanoids be there for all of you. Once the situation has settled down, I will slowly remove those Mechanoids." Jin said but he honestly did not mean any of those.
This was mainly because he wanted to return to the real world as soon as possible. There was no need for him to build an Empire here when it was not real for him. There are no extra benefits after getting the title of the King since all he needed was the official way to commence Armageddon and he and Lynn would be able to return.
The clock is ticking elsewhere in his world and there are things that had been in the backburner for weeks. Not to mention, he is more interested in investing his energy to get a new separate world up online as soon as possible, migrating his customers to that area and letting them have their fun there without screwing up the order of nature in this place.
As spoken to the Masked Announcer, it would not be a good thing for the inhabitants of this particular world if the Pandarens acted what they want with their unlimited resurrection capabilities. The Pandarens would eventually be the main lead of this particular simulation and that would have serious implications on how such a capability would reflect on the current state of power.
So, while Jin had avoided that at the moment by implementing a population cap due to the number of Virtual Simulation pods his store possessed and that their customers were still starting out and growing their grades, the disparity of power will get worse as more people enter and different ideas and ambitions of his customers were to grow in the Virtual Simulation.
Thus, Jin only allowed them in Daimon City and certain parts of Parry City. While he did enabled them to enter Bearling City to aid with the Dragonling problems, most of them have to log out once they are done with the security sweep. The remaining few had decided to stay for the side quests such as literally cleaning up the streets for that extra few simutlation coins.
Other than that, the whole city is in a mess and understood why the proposal for an offshore duel came about. The silver lining of it all? At least the King had promised an entire makeover of the city.
