Chapter 1367: White Demon Rats
"They are really not as stupid as we thought them to be," Jin said as the System continued to take note of all the conversations and the commands that were given to the Demon Rats on the ground.
"The knowledge of tactics command is equivalent to those in World War 1. However, there were some modern commands which even surprised the System."
"But now that we know what they are plotting, it should be fine, right?" Jin asked as he was trying to choose the plans that his minions and the System had created before to see which one was the best match.
"If we managed to intercept each and every fight, the Demon Rat Generals would know there is either a mole or we had accessed a backdoor of sorts." The System replied. "It would be wiser that we pick and intercept the bigger batches or set a trap of sorts."
"Well, either that or we just teleport all our minions in one go when they appear. Now that we know where their production factories are as well as the bases they kept their motorised units on standby, it would be an easy feat. We destroy their supplies and force them to be surrounded via a pincer formation." Jin suggested and the System calculated the odds.

"Not worth it. There would be major losses and it would be better if we fight to suppress the Demon Rats instead." The System replied and Jin sighed.
"Are you still insisting that they could be negotiated with?" Jin asked and the System did not comment on that particular question and coincidentally Jin's phone started to vibrate on the table.
"Hmm? Xiong Da? I thought he said that he wanted to reinforce the transportation crystal, why would there be any problems with that?" The Dungeon Supplier said to himself as he requested the System to bring up the location where the Hippo Cultivator was. As expected, he was located at the Third Layer of the Inner Wall and the System's magic eye had brought the live video stream of him on the screen for Jin.
"Boss, ehh the Demon Rats, you programmed them that way?" Xiong Da asked as he was confused, thinking that all Rats were supposed to be enemies.
Jin had no idea what he meant as well until he saw on screen a batch of white rats on his screen. This was the first time he saw white Demon Rats since all he encountered were black and brown ones. There might be a few dark maroons but never had he seen a blatant bright coloured Demon Rat. A number of them seemed to be severely wounded and they were carrying a white flag as if to announce their surrender.
But what concerned them the most was that there was a batch of black Demon Rats chasing after them as well and even shooting at them.
Jin could assume there was some story behind it and told Xiong Da the obvious. "Seriously, this is such an easy scenario to depict, do you really need to call me because of this?" Jin lied through his teeth.
"Ah. I can hear that tone of yours and the sentence's phrasing is way off your standard speech. You are lying, aren't you?" Xiong Da who had been in negotiations with Jin on quite a number of occasions knew how Jin could react and this was certainly one thing that he still had to improve if he wished to be a shrewd and cunning businessman.
"Damn it, I thought I could get away with it." Jin thought to himself. "You got me. Could be the instance's AI doing it. Let me go take a look at it personally. In the meantime, go do what you do best."
"Aye, boss." Xiong Da knew what he was talking about. Annihilate the Black Demon Rats that were chasing after them.

So as the Hippo Cultivator was busy killing the other Demon Rats, Jin had indeed arrived at the Third Layer to not only greet the runaways but also giving his Pandarens the instructions via their visors and Pandamonium App that this was a WARE event in order to hide the fact that this was an anomaly. The Pandarens did not really care to catch the difference in the scenario just like how Xiong Da did, only to know that they had to take care of the Black Demon Rats as instructed by the WARE descriptions.
At the same time, Jin had also raised a short barrier right behind the last White Demon Rat who was trying to run from the Black ones. "Halt. I cannot let you go any further, but since you raise the white flag, I can only assume you want to surrender to us as well. May I query your reason?"
"Could you please help me- help us? There are a few severely wounded of us that could die without proper medical attention. We will give you all the information and even a tribute if needed. Please help us!" The White Demon Rat said but Jin was mildly surprised that the Rat was talking with such a feminine voice.
"Argh, of course, there will be female rats or else how would they reproduce." Jin thought to himself as he wished to bang his head on the wall for stereotyping all the Rats as males. "Wait, aren't they grown from plants? Wait what?" Jin continued to be confused by the current situation but for the moment, he summoned Milk to the scene and as always she was almost half naked and asleep. "Argh, Milk! Why do you always!" Jin said to himself and thankfully the System was still in control of the bellators, allowing it to transform Milk into her usual battle priest costume while giving her an electric shock to force her awake.
"Arghhh Master! Why do you always make me do things early in the morning!" Milk complained as she instantly used her AOE healing spell and despite the ruckus caused by the humans, the White Demon Rats who initially felt perplexed by the situation were able to feel relief that their teammates were still alive.
But now Jin wants them to uphold their part of the bargain.
