Wudang: Legends Of Qi Earth 218 Night District VI : Plans

Nezha didn't hang around for too long before he returned back to the mantle, but none the less everyone had the basic gist of what they were currently facing, as it stood all of their techniques and skills were useless, not unless they all got bonded to a spirit and grew together. But just as Nezha had said, the system really gave out quests, and this was one of the main ways for a spirit king to get stronger.

[Spirit King Quest (Night District 1): clean up your camp and make proper arrangements for it to resembled a proper settlement or village. / time limit: five days/ reward: 20 spirit coins, one random defensive building blueprint]

There was a time limit, but there did not seem to be any penalties for not fulfilling the mission, but Alex didn't think it was that simple, should he be unable to fulfill this quest, there was a possibility that the consequences would be too hard to handle, plus Nezha had explained that Quests for spirit kings were mostly chain quests and that it was rare for there to be single quests. Which means completing this quest would lead to another and another until he had fully completed it. Never the less, Alex had just three months to get this dimension under his control, he better gets started on it.

Honestly speaking the camp was just situated in a valley, after a little more discussion with the twin generals, Alex got to understand that they were in the south facing the north that was occupied by the vampires, while the werewolves were further south and south-east. The ocean he had seen was to the west, and it led to what was basically the edge of the world, and if you fall off, that's the end. The lands to the east kept on stretching forth until they too came to an abrupt end, which fully explained some of the things Nezha had said.

Fully conquering the night district would add it to earth home base, or however that works. This would be his own personal territory as long as he could get it under control. And he had every intention of doing that, but right now he had to tackle the problem in front of him. The north gate was the only entrance into the camp as the they were backed up against really steep cliffs from the south. Which was practically the only advantage they had, the werewolves couldn't attack them from behind, not unless they were ready for a full scale raid and prepared to destroy the camp.

With that established, Alex sent Khan to the north to go scout out the lands of the vampires. The Kamaitachi was given three days, and honestly this would be the longest and farthest both he and Alex would have been away from each other, so as expected there were a few tear filled hugs. Alex was understandably worried, but if there was something Khan was good for, it was hiding and not being found.

And the same could be said for Devonte; even though he was just about seven inches tall, the young fairy was a druid, and even though Alex didn't know much about the martial classes of spirits apart from their discipline, he knew Devonte would be practically invisible in the forests, which was why he was sent to go scout the werewolves.

 Alex needed a plan of attack, sure Nezha's advice had said to focus on the werewolves first, but who could guarantee that the vampires wouldn't take an interests in him. So in the interest of covering his ass, he needed to know the movements of both the vampires and the werewolves and act accordingly. No plan ever survives the battlefield, and he had to make contingencies, upon contingencies, as advised by Sophia.

"Are you sure you want me to be in charge of city planning? Based on what Nezha said this wouldn't even be your real home base, but it would be quite important. Are you sure I'm the right person for the job?" Alex shifted his gaze to the fish floating in a ball of water above his head.

"A spirit of wisdom that's humble; I've not seen spirits of wisdom before, but you're way too modest. I trust your judgement, there can be no wisdom without knowledge, and I reckon you have a boatload of that to spare. Your input and full participation would be welcome. Frankly speaking whether this would be my home base or not, it's still a camp that belongs to me, and it has to be in top condition, I will not accept anything other than the best, so give it your best Sophia." Alex said to her as he made his way back to the tent, leaving the salmon to take charge and direct the effort of the soldiers.

"what do we do now?" Anya asked immediately Alex walked into the tent, they were worried, all of them. They might have been putting up a tough front for the army's sake, but the crux of the matter was that they were just as powerless as he was, it was not what they expected to happen when they all decided to follow him here.

"we'll wait for Khan and Devonte to come back from their scouting missions, we really have no idea what we're dealing with here, so it would be better if we have more information. On the other hand, we can digest what Nezha has to teach us and plan accordingly, but ultimately it seems the only thing we can do is wait for those two to get back. That and also making sure the camp is habitable because it is filthy and absolutely irritating.

But beyond that, Louis I need you to take a census of the soldiers that are within the camp and see if there are others outside of it. I want to know what I'm working with, Yun Fao I need you to work with him on this, the triplets can help you if the need arises. The information you compile should be comprehensive; you'll need to divide the soldiers into two divisions. A special forces and rapid response team.

The special forces would be trained to carry out covert missions, and the response team would be responsible for open warfare. Keep your eyes open for insubordination, if there's anyone not willing to get in line, then don't hesitate to execute that person, we have no time to have loose ends. I need a cohesive force by the end of the week, and let��s just hope against all odds, that luck is on our side."
