Chapter 597 Massive Backlogs
On the other hand, the serpent attack reminded him that Ming was not lying about sending out the Cardinal Beasts against him. That was clearly the Black Tortoise of the North. Which stupid giant snake would be so dumb to live in a secluded, freezing area full of snow and still be active during winter?
The hard shell attack was also the dead giveaway, and he believed only the Black Tortoise of the North was capable of doing that. The North Cardinal Beast fitted perfectly since the icy cold valley itself would prove to be an invulnerable spot for it to stay while using its 'tail' to get resources. (When the tail was awake)
Not to mention, it's an extremely defendable spot given the lack of mobility.
Thus, Jin believed it would not be a wise choice to re enter his cultivation 'dream' state again only to find himself falling hopelessly without any weapons or tactics against the Black Tortoise of the North. Regardless, the dream state was an enjoyable experience to accompany his grandfather for a hike.
Still, Jin knew he had to fight against the Black Tortoise all by himself in the coming future and perhaps, that would give him a peek into the next grade of cultivation as well as Ming's secret.
"No matter. I have other things to do...though I am curious what had happened in the Grand Feast." Jin said to himself as he asked the System to replay the event through his phone.
While lying on his bed, Jin laughed hysterically at the game event as well as the big key moments during the gathering where the monsters tried to fight against Yun to a drinking battle.
The game was fun inducing, and it was all because of Lynn's choice of alcohol. Her sake was already potent enough for most to fall after a cup or two since Jin did try one for himself. True enough, almost everyone who participated in the 'competitive' drinking contest, fell into a drunken state after the third cup. Even Zeru, with his overwhelming cultivation, could not stand against the sake.
Lynn knew that her sake which was brewed within the Werejackals' compartment was one of the most tedious procedures the workers had ever done, but the taste of the sake was tremendously sweet.
It was one of the more traditional recipes which Lynn had unlocked from the Sub System. Considering most sake usually have a tinge of bitterness and dryness, the traditional ones were more luscious. Yet Milk and Nubwort, the Orc General, were the only few that was able to stand against Yun. They were at their fifth cup and Yun was still steadily standing and laughing at the state the two other contestants were in.
Nubwort was barely standing with his sheer will while Milk went into a more drunken state but still conscious because she had previous training of the drunken fist style while the 'fake' priest had her training as a monk.
"Just give up already," Yun said in the video, and when given the sixth cup, both collapse almost simultaneously after drinking half of it. This concluded that Yun was the new drinking champion for this particular Grand Feast Event, and the organisers called it a day.
For those who were still sober, they brought their colleagues back to their home instances in the Sanctum of Worlds to rest. Jin did tell them previously that the transition to their Home Island Instances could be done within a few months if needed so they could rest easy for now. However, it would be better to move as soon as possible, so the System had more processing capacity for other things.
And although the System preferred to evacuate them once and for all, it respected Jin's wishes and gave them at most a month to move out (which it would eventually send a notice to everyone) even though the Dungeon Supplier said 'a few months'.

"User, hope you have a good rest as the list of agendas have grown tremendously." The System stated as it began to show the objectives shown in no presiding order.
1. Creation of Cultivation Zoo Instance
2. Establishment of Demon Exorcist Administrative and Training Centre Instance
3. Joint Military and Police Raid Instance
4. Procurement of Mechanical Titan Brain
5. The liberation of the Minor Races in Giant World
6. Completion for the Dungeon Fortress City and its defences
7. Creation of a Mecha Related Dungeon as a promise to Bu Dong
8. Extension of the Christmas Raid as requested by customers
9. Polar Phantom Gentlebear Secret Dungeon Instance
10. Finalising the Portal Devices with Ke Loong
"What the heck!? Since when did I have that many things to settle?" Jin swore to the System when he saw the list.
"There are other things promised as well as like the goblin theme treats which User wished to promote Lynn's store. However, given that the Tree Mall has a bakery, it would not be wise to create unnecessary competition for your tenant." The System stated.
"Wait... Did I - Wait No! Nevermind!" Jin said to the System when his phone was suddenly taken controlled by the System, and a past clip of the System's Magic Eye replayed the scene which happened in Lynn's office.
"Argghh. So you really did document everything." Jin replied with some bitterness, and he can feel that the System 'nodded' its head.
"All had to be documented should there need to be the reproduction of evidence." The System stated which made Jin shook his head.
"Then what do you advise me to do first?" The Dungeon Supplier asked as he looked at the long list. There were obviously some items on the checklist that needed to be completed first before he could attempt them.
"System suggest that User look into Item #8, the extension of Christmas Raid and prepare the shop instance for the New Year." The System stated.
"A new theme? But there isn't much going on for January. Unless you wish for me to prepare for the Chinese New Year in February." Jin understood that it was the norm for most shops to start the Chinese New Year festivities at the start of January.
"Not just the new Theme, with the advent of the Tree Mall, the System noted a constant rise of customers coming in. At least a 280% rise in customers was seen during the Christmas Raid event during the day and a 70% increase of customers in the night. It would be wise to change the layout of the shop instance to accommodate more of the customers." The System suggested.
"I see... Then perhaps I shall do that. Besides, I need to kill some time before I meet up with Que Er." Jin looked at his storage watch and also realised he needed to do something about the Living Armour Suit as well.
"Remember to take your breakfast as well. Without proper meals, User might potentially fall ill." The System reminded.
"Yes, mommmmm." Jin brushed the System away like a nagging parent and went to the washroom to prepare for the day.
