"You are a nobody to me. Why should my best Dungeon Clearing team should even come when there are no details at all?" Archduke Dyke said and Jin understood where he was coming from.
"How about this? I still have ...12 minutes according to your personal attendant." Jin said as he checked the clock right above him. "Give me this room for 2 minutes and let me borrow a portion of your bodyguards to test out my business."
"What are you talking about? Who do you think you are to ask the Archduke's guards as if they are a sort of commodity?!" Raymond yelled at Jin but he was ignoring him and awaited Archduke's permission.
"Very well. I do not know what tricks you have under your sleeve but since I had granted you 15 minutes of my time. I shall play along for now." Archduke Dyke replied and Jin bowed deeply from his chair.
"Sire! You cannot be serious entertaining this person!" Raymond said but Dyke merely stood up and took his laptop with him which made Raymond powerless in his defiance.
"Do not disappoint me," Dyke said as he walked out of the room while Raymond sighed as he closed the door. Jin smiled quietly as the personal attendant of the Archduke stared back at him.
"Let's show this Synthesis Server what we can do with this 'small' room," Jin said as he booted up his Tactical System and a module called Dungeon Creation emerged from the bottom of the list.
"The System had managed to disguise it as a unique variant module to avert the eyes of the administrators." The Tactical System wrote and Jin clicked on it, forcing a further out of body experience that allowed him to start shifting the data within this small interrogation room to his liking.
As much as he wished to plummet the guards to death with his minions, they were not accessible with the exception of data from the 'Tactical' System. Cards of his minions popped out like how those wild cards Jin had used for his War Maidens. But instead of the usual minions, he had decided to try something new.
His Grey Bear Squad Members had been digitised as cards as well and he believed that the Tactical System had already received enough data on them which allowed them to materialise in his new dungeon.
"Damnit, this is how Virtual Reality should feel. Even though the gods were a shitty bunch of assholes to put me here, the way I control the environment and set everything out with my imagination and willpower is so much easier than the way I had been doing." Jin exclaimed.
"This is because you are controlling everything with the aid of your subconsciousness and of course, with the help of the almighty System as well." the Tactical System explained through text shamelessly. "However, this is definitely good data that can be used to consider to see if such implementation is possible."
"And to feel this real without any proper resources used, the Synthesis World's data allocation is fantastic. Maybe the gods are really helping despite being an asshole." Jin chuckled.
"The System hopes that the User is not being serious. Those gods had played you like a fiddle and you said that they are the good guys?"
"I am just saying that it's nice to find the silver lining in these dark clouds that we are in. But honestly speaking, this is the most fun that I have had in months."
"Because the User did not need to worry about the resources needed to be burned for the creation of the dungeon."
"Well duh! Imagine if I can do this without spending a single cent? I can improve the lives of people and increase my army's capability for the real threat...like those gods." Jin said as he remembered how the gods had been doing things on a whim like destroying Half Ghoul Lord Derek's world into a permanent Zombie Land.
"Then survive this Synthesis World, earn points and get out of here while the others will attempt to get your body back."
"That is what I am doing, aren't I? Using their points as payment and having a Synthesis dungeon at my behest allows me to keep fighting it," Jin said as one of the actual Tactical System manuals had explained that the dungeons once cleared will automatically respawn. And there is a certain percentage that it might mutate and turn into a stronger dungeon when cleared sufficiently.
A mutating dungeon was something that Jin would like to learn more about especially when he had done similar like a roguelike dungeon with the use of captured Demon Rats. (Speaking of which, he hoped that the System would be able to replenish them now that they had Demon Rat Mothers with them.) He should have asked for an update about what was happening to his current world but right now these two minutes are the major turning point of his life in the Synthesis World and he had to get it right.
"Nothing too much fanciful but something to wow the Archduke when he is watching." Jin thought to himself and he decided to do a simple but effective way to gain the Dyke's approval. But at the same time, he did not know whether it was enough to keep him interested.
Jin was afraid that if he put the difficulty level too low, the guards under Dyke's command which he wished to invite after the completion of his 'Synthesis Dungeon' could potentially clear it all in one shot.
"Ah fuck it. I will put restrictions so that they have a handicap playing this. That way, my dungeon 'workers' would be able to compete with them fairly.
"You mean with the System interfering and controlling the AI workers." The Tactical System replied and Jin laughed.
"Time to use those machine learning knowledge that you have used for the NPCs and collected massive amounts of data into the picture. I have no real minions here to deal with them."
"User does understand that the System does restrict or enhance User's minions based on the participants, right?"
"Yes, I do know. How else would I have been able to run a successful dungeon business without you fiddling with almost everything that I had my hands with. It's as if like you do not have anything to do or use this excuse to pretend that you are busy."
"Direct interference is also a part of the System's data collection so that the data could be fed into the AIs for learning. However, without the minions' presence, it would undoubtedly be a new ball game for the System to learn as well."
"At the very least, there is no freaking magic in this Synthesis world. You are just dealing with bullets and bigger bullets." Jin said as he made the finishing touches.
Colour the System impressed. Even though it was something similar to what Jin had created before but on a smaller scale, it was no doubt filled with smaller details that only a veteran Dungeon Supplier could take note of and implement.
And as much as the System would wish to run it in the background with a full diagnostic scan to ensure there were no potential bugs within the created Synthesis Dungeon which Jin had decided to name it, there was no time. All it could do was run a partial background scan quietly with its capabilities locked to avoid any serious alerts from the real server masters.
But the System was confident that Jin had done a good job making it. All that was left was to convince the Archduke that this was a business worth approving.
