Chapter 820 Follow Up Meeting

"You worked throughout the whole night again, didn't you?" Lynn asked with some worry in her tone as she found the lights of the Dungeon Maker were still on after six in the morning.

"Had to make sure the trucks went to the right military and police bases. Besides, I can't really afford to sleep when such a big event is happening in our world for once. Especially seeing as we have been dragged into it… So we're also at least partially responsible for it." Jin argued as he pointed on the screen while stifling a yawn. There was only one convoy left, reaching Shanghai outskirts where one of the Royal Snake clan's bases was situated.

"That's really far. I had kinda assumed the bases would all be in Shenzhen or at least from Dongguan since they had transferred their belongings from there." Lynn commented as she saw the portal manifest on the dungeon maker's interface and about 85% were already active. "Hmm, I thought they needed a …..erm, your portal key to activate them?"

"Yeah, they still do. That's why I sent a portion of the Pandafull delivery team alongside the Royal Snakes. Only instead of the 'Farming' Humans, I've sent the Night Foxes in with advanced cosmetic inscriptions for a worst-case scenario of 'someone' trying to steal our technology. So far nothing has happened, and I hope it will stay that way. You know, better safe than sorry." Jin explained the procedure.

"Anyways, they are the ones who activate the portals and return them via the portal coordinates. After which, the rest of the trucks have a two-way function. From their base and to the Huzhou border walls."Jin added.

"So what about the deal with Hou Fei. The one in which they require you to house the evacuated citizens when push comes to shove?" Lynn questioned as she created a chair in the Dungeon Maker and started to sit beside Jin to listen to him talk. The Dungeon Supplier did not suspect anything as he assumed she was doing her job as the person in charge of this counter offence operation and wanted more details.

"Hou Fei told me that they intend to use the portal devices to their bases first since Shenzhen should be relatively safe from the Monster Horde. However, should their military bases near max capacity, they can send an SOS signal via the portal's interface, and that is when they will connect the truck to our area." Jin explained as he showed her images and some simple chart on how the teleporting business would work.

"Ah, so we are actually only being used as the very last resort?" Lynn could easily understand Jin's explanation.

"Yeah, the military still has to use their bases as places of refuge in order to show the public that they are doing their job. Only when they are flooded with people, will they proceed to publicly enlist us as a third party contractor for serving aid." Jin narrated though his facial expression showed that his thoughts were elsewhere.

"However, I feel it's more like Hou Fei wants to boost my earnings by using my Pandapolis as the backup plan. The deal we've struck clearly favours us. In case everything goes well with the Monster Horde, I will only have to return the emergency supplies I had purchased to their bases for future use. Whatever I've built in preparation to house the refugees, I can legally keep them since it's already done and only the leftover budget would be returned to them. Not to mention, I got to retain a commission of 10%, which is already quite a lump sum of money."

"That is assuming everything does go well," Lynn emphasised with a smile, and Jin laughed since he shared her feeling that was not possible at all.

"Yeah, if they really need to start the evacuation but do not use our facilities, those emergency supplies that we've stocked up on would be sent to those bases via the portal trucks. It will give them instant access to medical care and food supplies as needed."

"Not to mention, they can use your store as a gateway to send them to Shenzhen and use the 'hotels and motels' here as temporary accommodation for their evacuations," Lynn commented as that was what her government had previously done during natural disasters.

"Ah, Hou Fei did not tell me about that. So we are in the hotel and motel services now apparently." Jin laughed, and Lynn chuckled along with him.

"By the way, have you checked how far along Qiu Yue is with the temporary lodgings? During our dinners, she only told us that she would get it done." Jin asked Lynn, and she nodded with glee.

"As expected from her and our workers, they've done a fantastic job so far. My peggies have also prepared multiple days worth of rations with the help of the new tribes since the hotels were temporarily brought offline. They might not be as agile as the penguins, but they are able to assist with the preparations."

"Also, the Demons from the Metropolis came at the perfect time. They turned out to be extremely useful in making sure the logistics would be going smoothly since a lot of them have gone through long distance dungeon raids in their world. A number of them are well versed in logistical supplies which sped up a lot of stuff. I let Moloch handle that part since he should know how to handle them. But apparently, he forwarded the job to another guy. According to him, he had pledged loyalty to him and in turn, the System and you." Lynn picked up her phone and showed Jin the picture as she couldn't remember the name.

"Prince Stolas? Ah, I vaguely remember him from the War Room Table discussion. He was apparently the one and only royalty who had managed to survive the entire war without much of a scratch. If I am not wrong, he even tolerated the bewitching spell from Syldra, Ayse's Shaitan." Jin thought back to ensure that his memory served him correctly.

"He is doing a great job so far. He also roped in those Demon Nobles…or is it military commanders? You know, the ones you guys had killed since they were rather apt with administrative issues."

"Good thing they are like the Orcs and are helpful at more than fighting. Having some people who know how to do some administrative work is as important to fighting a war." Jin smiled at Lynn, and she couldn't help but nod along childishly.

"The System believes those Demon Nobles should carry on with said administrative duties especially since their battle capabilities are not as great as they had advertised for the Pandapolis defensive battle."

"Does that include that bat guy, Kiva, too? How is he handling Ayse?" Jin was curious about the fate of the bat/raven head scientist.

"At this point, he is totally smitten by Head Orc Researcher Ayse." The System answered and provided no further details.

"I wonder if that is meant literally?" Lynn commented, and the duo laughed together for a moment before they continued with their discussion for the upcoming evacuation plan. At the very least, Jin did not feel as stressed as before and was thankful that his colleagues had spoken out to provide their help.
