Number One Dungeon Supplier Chapter 1267 - Aftermath Of The Symposium Incident

Chapter 1267 - Aftermath Of The Symposium Incident

The aftermath of the entire fiasco was not pretty. Even though pretty much everyone in the convention was saved, there was a major backlash at the committee members in the Dungeon Supplier Symposium.
Even the police were scrutinised despite the quick deployment and rather swift resolution of the entire matter. The public voiced their concern how the terrorists were getting ever more daring than ever to hit such a big event and one which was filled with a high level of security.
However, the government did not take too much of a hit from the public mainly because the one who suffered the most was the 'minister of defence' He Fei. Since he was captured as a hostage and had been rescued in less than 24 hours, had shown that the public security forces were still effective and deadly against internal threats. (Although the people who were in the know all laugh at such a statement.)
He Fei expressed his regrets for the entire situation and also gratitude for the security forces who had risked their lives with everything. (Whether it was fortunate or not, Jin's name was not being released publicly though he did mention that the help of certain public members had stepped up and performed their civic duty above and beyond what the rest would not have done.)
In addition, he did vow to do everything in his power to not let such an incident happen again and in some way, this particular incident had enabled the defence minister and other supporting government officials to draft a proposal to increase their budget for internal security drastically for the upcoming fiscal year. Some insiders even speculated that the proposal could be approved in an emergency council which they are going to hold to review the said proposal.
Hence, one would wonder if the implantation of such an important figure in this entire bait and kill operation would be a risky move but ultimately the agenda had been paid off with magnanimous support and Kong Rong finally had the budget to search for the Banned Emperor.
And because the Dungeon Supplier Symposium also invited overseas dungeon suppliers as guests, the countries those guests were from had also condemned the terrorist attack and pledged to provide some form of support if China ever needs it. It was a little expected from the foreign ministry point of view but they too had decided to jump on the chance to build additional bridges with said countries.
As for Jin, he finally had a good long talk with Farasha asking him about the Void Plane and how he had been summoned into this world. The Void Butterfly was non compliant at first, especially when he had to obey someone that is superiorly inferior to him. Eventually, he dropped his guard when Lynn had allured him with a custom made hamburger that was suitable for his size. (Her experience in handling Mr Derpy and other large sized monsters paid off tremendously.)
That burger alone was more than enough to get him to open his mouth and tell Jin how he, like every other race, was in a hierarchy system. He was considered only as a scout and hunter of some sort. Bringing in some dinner for the rest to feast upon. Void Energy as the name implied that the energy comes from being in the void. Emotions were a healthy source of such energy because depriving the said food source of such energy would eventually create Void Energy.
Thus, he was wondering why and how Jin could easily create void energy out of nothing. And a huge source of it as well considering how his void energy was able to counter and eventually overwhelm his own concentrated void energy. Granted he was not the strongest of all Void Beings but being a hunter for the Void was a rank not to be scoffed at either.
When asked if he were to go missing, would others come to find him, Farasha responded that it was normal for hunters to go missing because they always hunt solo and there are still chances of them disappearing due to a force stronger than them. Still, it was rather uncommon for it to happen and the Void Beings would take note of the area if there were too many disappearances.
"That means there are chances for them to come back here?" Jin asked and Farasha nodded without much care towards Jin's question as Lynn's food occupied his mind more.
"If you can eat my burger, does that mean the Void Beings can consume other energy as well? You don't have to hunt that much, right?" Lynn queried.
"Hmm. As much as it sounds very sciency, we gain from the loss from the energy conversion, but we do not need much to survive to begin with. So these burgers are fine although pure void energy consumed is still the best way to get by." Farasha said as he swallowed the last bit of the giant burger.
"Ah…interesting. So you are living the reverse of us." Kraft was there to hear the Void's side of the story since this was the first time someone communicated properly with them. Most instances were purely life and death scenarios.
"You could say that. It's a little paradoxical but we get by." Farasha said as he looked towards Lynn, obviously hinting based on the body language that he still wanted another one. Lynn smiled and nodded his head, telling him to wait for more while the rest continued their chat on how to utilise Farasha now that they got a heavy hitter that could potentially relieve some of their problems during the invasion of the Demon Rats.
After all, that was mainly the agenda for Jin to have his attention on to ensure that PandaVerse Festival would be a success. For now, he was hoping to get more insight on the latest monster's combat abilities since the System had given Farasha access to his void source once again. An obvious weakness that he needed connection to the void but a strength capable of inflicting untold chaos when properly tapped.
However, just as Jin was in the midst of discussing, Kong Rong sent a message that warranted the Dungeon Supplier's immediate attention as well.. Jin could only assume that it had to do with the aftermath of the entire Symposium incident.
