Chapter 1597 Interim Leader Of Daimon City -Part 1



"Do what you need to do to protect that city. After all, we would need it to go against the Imperial Family. And since you are now technically a Lord, it opens up a multiude of options for you to enact for the protection of the city. I will give you the rights shortly."

"Just like this?" Jin could not help but wonder how much of this power transfer within this Virtual Simulation can taken advantage of. It felt as if this was something that emerge from the regular MMORPG gaming experiences where the transfer of power and rights was just a click away. After being stuck in this world for a few weeks, he had forgotten that this was a Virtual Simulation though to these people, it was their lifeline. 

"Just like this," Dyke said as he already made the necessary adjustments. "But the transfer of power and the announcement of being an interim lord is a separate issue. I will attempt to mobilise my troops to you but it seems like the Imperial family had already taken a step ahead of time and sent a royal decree to have my troops to move to the north. 

"Huh. For what reason?"

"They used you as an excuse, stating that since I am the person who had requested and recommended the approval of the Lord of Mount Sunn's candidate, I should be the one who should help kickstart Mount Sunn's development. They 'noted' the chaos in that particular area as word had finally travelled to them."

"Oh...That's a cunning move." 

"Yes, exactly. But since I know that you are in control of Daimon City right now, I rest my case and decided to go full force to aid you instead." Dyke replied with a grin. "I will bring all the necessary equipment, construction tools and since Imperial Family had gave me permission, I see there's no reason why I could not dip into the royal coffers to build up Mount Sunn." 

"You can do that?" 

"Of course! The development of a new region is the Imperial State's responsibility. They might have private coffers but their current personal Royal Army had been funded by the state as well. That is in the name of protecting and defending the Empire's name and title. Obviously, they took that minor loophole and abused it to kingdom come. So, why can't I do the same? Besides, I am the Archduke, I have self rights and no need of approval from the Royal Family to use the national coffers in the name of renovating a town - well in your case, it is to build from scratch." 

"If that's the case, I guess you should get your Royal Engineers to be in contact with Old Flammet. The priority should be rebuilding the workshop again and getting it up to speed. Having him will no doubt improve your army's chances to fight against the Imperial Family." Jin felt this conversation was extremely productive. 

"I shall do that. In the meantime, I will send a 'volunteer detachment' to your side but it won't be much. At most, two hundred standard Mechanoids." Archduke Dyke was happy with the outcome of this mini discussion as he said goodbye.

"Lol. Standard Mechanoids. They think that you guys are not standard stuff." Jin said to Yinn would be listening through the whole meeting from the side while standing guard.

"Technically speaking, after that event, you pull through from us, we are no longer standard Mechanoids. Especially after they inserted the special module packages into us. We are already considered to be customised Mechanoids. Not to mention, the growth of Click, Tellie and possibly Diaz in this coming... catastrophe. It is likely customised Mechanoids would be the terms that we hold, such as the title the Interim Lord of Daimon City for you." 

"I wish they could stop shoving all these titles at me... Though I won't say it's a bad thing at this moment since I get to take charge of stuff..." Jin thought to himself as he questioned Page what are the procedures to assume power.

"Since Diamondz Corps has the majority of the holding power to this city at the moment, having Denise publicly announce that you are the new interim City Lord would not be a bad idea. And seeing how Click had described your interaction with the special assault police forces, there is a high chance that you should have a smooth transition with the security forces. All you need to do is to focus on the administration team handling the city." Yinn remarked. 

"Does my presence make such a big impact on the police forces? Lol, I have no idea." 

"The Special Assault Police Force is technically the branch with the highest amount of power. You gaining their approval meant that the rest of the police force had to listen to you. It's that simple right here." Yinn replied.

"Then I guess priority goes to returning to Diamondz Corps immediately and using Diamondz Crops' security forces to set up the initial perimeter while the police evacuate the citizens," Jin said as he beckoned Yinn to start running with him back to the rental vehicle that Denise had loaned them. 

"Commander. I think your thinking is too passive. You had forgotten how the Daimon City citizens were so eager to kill the Tri-Rex previously. While there may have been a few deaths and many injured from the Tri-Rex incident, it also showed that all of them were capable of fighting back. So you actually have a citizen force as well as the security forces to play with to fight with this outbreak."

When Jin heard that from Yinn, he somehow felt like this was partially preparing him for a possible similar situation when he is out of this Virtual Simulation. It was a bad hunch which he could not shake off at the moment and all he could do was to agree to Yinn as she drove him back to the City while he get his thoughts right.
