Chapter 1434: Extra - Waiting For the System To Restart

 

"What is that old retro sound..." Qiu Yue said while the rest gathered around the table of Dungeon Maker Instance with the exception of Milk and Kraft being brought into the Recovery Instance for further monitoring.

"Isn't that the sound of a modem ringing, My dad used to have such a piece of equipment," Lynn said as she saw her Sub System picking up the slack and maintaining the minimum required amount of activity to keep the main store instance intact. Pandarens were all advised to leave the dungeon instance if possible and the Sub Systems had repeatedly said that compensation would be given to the users, apologising for the inconvenience caused.

"Restarting... Restarting." The words emerged on the table as the arena subsequently dissipated back into the empty room that Jin used to work in.

"If there is nothing of use for us, we will step back for a while. Call us if you need." Peppers said in a rather serious tone, and everyone around knew that she was not satisfied with the result especially after seeing how the fake Jin was still alive after her supposedly strongest explosion. She thought that all her pent up rage should have caused the imposter to be defeated in a blink of an eye and yet there wasn't a scratch on him.

"Do not worry, I feel the same as well." Zeru pats her back but she was arrogant enough to shrug it off.

"I am not like you." Peppers exclaimed before disappearing right in front of them.

 

"Master, you are going as well?" Qiu Yue asked and Zeru shook his head.

"I will look after that dead husk for a moment or two. You never know when the Gods come in and swoop up the fake Jin once more." Zeru replied but Diabolos who was still at the scene riveting at his new source of strength after consuming the life energy of multiple low level gods, decided to do the Sword Saint a favour and wrapped the fake Jin with black temporal chains.

"You have nothing to worry about for now. Those Gods are low level scumbags." Diabolos said before Moloch and Baal sighed at the ignorance that their Exiled Prince portrayed.

"Even though they might be low level to you, they may carry some title or even had fathers or mothers that held important positions. What happens if they decided to take revenge?" Moloch asked and Baal corrected him.

"You mean what happens when they decided to take revenge? You know how petty they are, it won't take long for them to search for us." Baal commented but Diabolos smirked.

"It's fine, they would automatically assume they had been consumed by Demons. I purposely left a minion there to do some 'cleanup job' so that it would look like they got into a fight and subsequently leave traces back to the Demon Plane." Diabolos said as he swirled his hand around and multiple black roaches with teeth sharper than ordinary blades emerged on his palm. The Demons knew they were common minions commanded by practically every average Demon Joe, allowing them to cover their tracks for some time.

 

"Looks like we are in the safe zone for a while then." Moloch shrugged his shoulders while Diabolos decided to return to his cage to catch some snooze so he could properly digest the 'magnificent' god powers (despite it being low level) which he had not tasted in centuries. Baal too had returned leaving Moloch, Lynn and Qiu Yue waiting for the System to properly reboot. The cotton minotaur was purely curious but the other two needed to stay there in order to let their Sub System facilitate with the restart of the System.

In the meantime, Claire had connected up with them briefly via a regular phone call and complained that her Sub System was fiercely against using any form of connection. It was only through a burner phone that she managed to contact them. (Not exactly a burner phone, but a phone which she used the Sub System to buy.)

Qiu Yue had some idea why the Sub Systems were against Claire connecting to them via the System Channel as they were afraid the designated survivor would be exposed and unable to retaliate, signalling the definite end of the Clan System.

So while it was not recommended, Claire's usage of the burner phone was the only way to allow her to know what was exactly happening and once she heard about the current situation, she now knows the current predicament that the Clan Family were facing. They had decided to break contact after the conversation and resurface again after 48 hours unless the System could be rebooted and deemed safe.

"This does not feel like 15minutes at all." Qiu Yue complained as she continued to monitor the restarting process with now a progress bar appearing out of the console and moving. The Sub System indicated that Time Compression Module was still active within this Dungeon Maker Instance and they were already trying their best to reboot the System. All they could do was wait and somehow that prompted Moloch to settle the Farming World since there was no one else manning the area.

"Give me a heads up when it's 99%. I will come to help if needed...and if the Sub System have enough operating capability to ferry back here." Moloch said before opening a teleport with the aid of the Sub System remaining processing power to move out of the instance. On the other hand, Zeru continued to stay by their side as he felt that he had somewhat failed his duty as a Bellator, not able to keep his master out of harm. Yet, Lynn and Qiu Yue convinced him otherwise and that he could not be looking at Jin 24 hours a day.

 

"Look at those few rascals like Milk and Peppers. Jin had given them the leeway to do what is needed around here. You are busy hunting down those Banned Emperor Heretics especially when they are about to do something nasty to your Flower City. I do not think Jin would blame you for that." Qiu Yue tried to calm Zeru, but it was pretty apparent that he still partially blame himself for this current mess even though he himself know that it was impossible to know when the Gods could strike.

So, all they could do now was to play the waiting game to make sure that the System can survive so that they can use it to find Jin.
