The Strange Adventure of a Broke Mercenary

Chapter 1103 - The Ooofpa Loopa Finally Strikes



Chapter 1103 – The Ooofpa Loopa Finally Strikes

While there was chaos initially, most of the Pandarens quickly took whatever role they needed to fill based on the available 'job' slots in the Pandamonium App. (Like gunners, artillery shell assistants, lookouts, barricade builder, etc) Even without any minions to lead the way, they still had access to the Pandamonium App Map which at least provided them with an interactive map listing all defensive emplacements they could take up.

Once they took the emplacement position, the Pandamonium App would not only display that their location was filled up but would also send them easy to understand work instructions on how to operate the machines. Their half mask visors even gave the user visual hints by highlighting certain parts of the machinery like the artillery gun they were operating.

The System also sent out combined operational work instructions that allowed various cultivators to try and team up together as a whole. After all, this raid was about them working as one big group of strangers. There was bound to be some friction among Pandarens when working with members outside their usual group.

Yet, Kraft and the System believed that there should still be some level of cooperation because this was not a life and death situation. Mistakes were permitted and the community of Pandarens progressed as a team no matter the differences.

The usage of defensive emplacements such as artillery guns, anti air guns and even mobile mortars were picked up by them on the spot. Thanks to the assistance of the System it was easy enough (because it was dumbed down a lot), yet this enabled some form of confidence that they could deal with the incoming threat.

For the time being, both Ooofpa Loopas remained stationary, giving the entire section of artillery freshman a few training shots against the big immovable target. It was programmed that way by Jin and reinforced by Kraft to instil fear in the monster. The interesting part was that Jin had purposely changed the way the Ooofpa Loopa would work while keeping the basic mechanics of the boss monster the same.

He had purposely inverted the original name of the abomination from Loopa Ooofpa to Ooofpa Loopa to explicitly show that it was a basically 'different' monster. (He was also betting that most of the Pandarens would not notice the difference since the monster looked the same and a flip of the name was nothing to people who were dyslexic.)

The original Loopa Ooofpa abomination had the disgusting ability to consume energy be it chi or magic or other types, to later emit it out as part of its attack, causing pretty much devastation on a pretty epic scale. If Jin had kept the very same mechanic, he believed that the Pandarens would only experience raid wipe after raid wipe since most of them were relying on his dungeon environmental mechanics to support their strengths and powers.

Thus, he had purposely revamped the Ooofpa Loopa, keeping the part about getting immune after the first attack that they were damaged with, primarily based on the type of element. For example, the artillery shell shots were mostly explosive in nature and therefore, fire element.

Anything else with a fire element would subsequently not be effective against the big boss. They would have to start hitting it with a variety of different attacks as time goes by else the Ooofpa Loopas would simply bulldoze their way through the Demopolis City Defences.

At least, the Pandarens had it easier despite not knowing the exact nature of the Boss's attribute. This was solely because their visors displayed the Ooofpa Loopa's health points right in front of them when they targeted it. All they needed to do was some major 'big brain' thinking to realise that their artillery shells would only be effective if they constantly rotated in different elements.

And that itself would be a surprisingly decent boss mechanic to deal with once they figured it out. Kraft sure had it easy, not needing to recreate anything special. All he needed to do was to ensure that the transfer and replication of all the assets would work as intended. (Of course just because he didn't 'need' to, didn't mean he didn't touch it… )

However, not just any elemental attacks would do the trick since the Ooofpa Loopa also had a certain amount of base elemental resistance and defence (both magical and physical). The Pandarens would have to tear through before the change in the element could happen. And as if that wasn't enough, they also had to deal with two of those monsters at once.

Meanwhile, the Pandawans were temporarily taking up leadership roles to ensure smoother processes within Demopolis. But as they explored the Pandamonium App to check the facilities available to them inside Demopolis, they found out that the entire city was indeed a military base, filled with all sorts of equipment which they could use to fight against the Ooofpa Loopa and from the looks of it, many of those had already been taken up.

From small arms like assault rifles and RPG to one man tanks and even a truck that held a barrage of rocket launchers. What surprised them the most was the variety of ammunition stored within the armoury. The Pandawans saw the stock inventory in Pandamonium App and they believed it was practically enough to start World War Three.

"What are we your waiting for? Those Pandarens who are not at the North and South Defence installations, get your a.s.s over to the bas.e.m.e.nt four armoury and get those crates of guns transported out. Some of you carry those lightning element based artillery shells to the southern area. Maybe we can use the elements to our advantage since that dumbass monster is in the sea area!" Se Lang shouted when he brought a team of Pandarens to sort out the inventory.

But as he did that, chatter within the Pandaren Channel, which was created similarly to the System Channel, increased multifold minutes after Se Lang gave the order to send the artillery ammunition to the south. (They really had to thank Xiong Da for buying the entire package to do raid wide coordinations.) Those chatters were coming from the Pandarens on the North and South Walls who had simultaneously spotted the Ooofpa Loopa giving birth to various odd shaped eggs from its orifices.

However, the North still had it easy, at least their side's eggs could be seen on the ground. As for the Southern Wall, the Pandarens reported that those eggs sank the moment they emerged out of those orifices and most of them assumed that the sea was hiding their presence.

This presented an unprecedented challenge to the Pandawans and Pandarens but all of them decided to take it one step at a time. "Fire at those orifices and eggs! Reduce their numbers before those abominations give birth to more of them!" Bu Dong shouted through the Pandaren Channels and those manning the walls immediately pounced into action by readjusting their aim to the vulnerable orifices of the Ooofpa Loopa so they could destroy them.

And this was barely the beginning!
