Chapter 1359: Extra: Some Bad News
"Is this really a wise choice?" The System asked as it had already brought up a couple of scenarios that involved the Air Force General of the Demon Rats wreaking havoc with the Gunndam Aegis.
"I like to see what kind of powers they have," Jin said and the System felt that it was a bad choice.
"It is always best to eliminate the enemy before they are able to show their talents." The System stated and Jin did not deny that philosophy.
"No. I am actually more interested in how the Demon Rats are going to take control of it without you interfering with it. Besides, we already set the internal timer, right? If there is anything we cannot take control of after the situation." Jin explained.
"But why go so far to do that?" The System queried wanting to know Jin\'s reasoning especially when it felt edgy that the Demon Rats have the ability to control the fallen Gunndam Aegis.
"Well, don\'t you want to know how they do it? And subsequently, improve on the model?" Jin asked as he was looking into the future if they ever needed to interfere and fight against the United Federation, the Xeon Union or the worst case scenario of fighting both of them together.
"The Mecha World does not have magic. All they have are generations of technology." The System rebutted and Jin replied the very same thing to it.
"Isn\'t technology to people who have not experienced it a sort of magic too? The Mecha World would assume that what we did was something that used highly advanced technology which had not seen the daylight of that universe. Once they start trying to mimic us, they could very well duplicate magic for all we know. Isn\'t\' that the danger of interfering with the other worlds like how we did to this?"
"What do you mean?" The System asked but it was merely buying time to compute various things in the background.
"Don\'t play dumb. You know what I mean. Do you think I did not notice that every time we interfere with the worlds, we are inevitably changing their reality? From the Goblin World to the Giant World. We might have saved people but also made enemies as well. And each time we interfere with their world, their enemies seem to \'level up\' a lot more than usual." Jin said.
"Take the Demon Rats for example. I doubt they did not bother expanding their borders so quickly. If they had conquered the entire Northern Region, it might take them another few years before moving towards the East and West. But because we had interfered, they had moved their timeline so drastically that the cracks are showing. -Both good and bad." Jin took a while to say the last sentence. He knew that because of the Demon Rats\' rapid expansions, they finally had the cooperation with the Spirits of the Land which allowed Jin and the System to learn how bad the problem was.
"And let the humans in this world suffer like how past humans suffered under the Banned Emperor?" The System asked and Jin scoffed.
"Stop acting so self righteous. Both you and I know what we truly want from this war. It\'s not to just save people but the Farming World\'s ability. To grow almost everything and anything given the right circumstance and planting methods. If the Demon Rats would continue conquering the entire place, the Farming World may very well lose such an ability to create things out of almost nothing once given enough time. And that is because they are eating and living on the lifestream energy with their inventions." Jin said as he monitored how Gnawbones used both magic and mechanical methods to hijack the Gunndam Aegis. It was taking some time but it seemed like their hijacking method works.
"So you are willing to let them destroy such a valuable asset that could assist you because you do not wish to interfere?" The System questioned once again.
"No, I will fight to get this ability no matter what. I know how vital this is but I am starting to think how the consequences of our actions have yet to bite us back. You already said that there are gods and demons but those \'Gods\' have not given us any warning at all."
"Because they find all of these very entertaining." A feminine voice suddenly interjected into the conversation and Jin could recognise that it was Syldra.
"I did not…expect you to suddenly talk through my head," Jin said as he knew the difference between a telepathy talk and a System channel opening through his head.
"All I needed was just a connection with you the moment you had linked with Ayse. But because you are not my chosen, my conversation with you will be brief to avoid any suspicions." The Lightning Shaitan said.
"We Shaitans were once part of the gods before being banished into the \'goblin\' world which you had dubbed. Make no mistake, they are clearly watching you fail and rise and they would do things that provide them with the most entertainment. Your fight with Baal would no doubt raise some eyebrows among the High Gods and they are keeping an eye on you even though they should not be involved at all." Slydra said that it is not normal for the heavens\' eyes to be looking at Jin since there were also people who could travel through multiverses.
"My only theory which I could form from all this is because of the System. It is nonetheless a product of the heavens if what I learn from Ayse is correct. Whether the Gods would be your foe or friend, it remains to be seen. But trust me, they are always itching for a fight. That is all I can say for now. Goodbye." Slydra said and Jin\'s head suddenly hurt a little.
Upon taking in this new information, Jin stared at the screens for a moment. He knew that the System had heard everything and was processing the information.
"Fuck…" Jin sighed to himself as if he unknowingly got into another heap of shit. If the Gods were watching his every move like some TV show, then he and the System had to take some time to prepare for their inevitable clash. However, for now, he had to concentrate on the situation at hand.
