Rui did not want to read the docunts on the populated first floor where they could be run into by a random adventurer at any given point in ti. He did not want to use read all the docunts with Void Step because that was just a pain in the ass to do.
Instead, the two of them went to the fourteenth floor where they were isolated from the others.
Rui gave Kane a suit this ti as well since it would take so ti. Soon enough, both of them had completed their preparations.
"Alright, I'll begin," Rui quickly opened the box of docunts, beginning to go through with them.
The first one detailed the basic background of the Exploration Departnt of Deacon Industries. According to Guildmaster Bradt, Chairman Deacon had created the departnt within twenty-four hours of the discovery of the Shionel Dungeon. The mont he had gotten the news, he imdiately realized that this would probably change the supplier-consur markets of esoteric substances forever.
As the most dominant force in the international market of many large esoteric supply industries and sectors, he needed to make sure that he did not lose the ensuing war that he had predicted would occur.
Rui expected nothing less of Chairman Deacon, although the economic and political capital accrued by this man was not on par with Guildmaster Bradt, he was still unquestionably the most powerful individual in the Shionel Confederation, and that was true for a reason.
The following docunts went deeper into the operations and protocols of the exploration departnt of Deacon Industries. Rui was impressed with the sheer complexity and sophistication of the system that Chairman Deacon had co up with.
The man did not simply go for a bone-headed strategy where he simply dumped a large sum of money and resources into exploring every nook and cranny of the Shionel Dungeon mindlessly. No, the system that he had set up in place worked heavily in tandem with the Dungeon Division of the Intelligence Departnt.
This division was focused on gathering any and all information about the dungeon by gathering reports from contracted and partnered Martial Squire adventurers, as well as other Martial Squire adventurers that were involved with Deacon Industries. The division gathered a gigantic reservoir of information before conducting thorough data analyses on the stated reports, even managing to create highly rudintary and imprecise maps of certain sections of the dungeon and tilines of certain events based on reports.
The frequency and density of monster sightings were correlated with the presence of a floor and proximity to it.
Based on this, the Dungeon Division of the Intelligence Departnt evaluated the avenues of exploration with the highest probability of being near an undiscovered floor. The Exploration Departnt would begin by evaluating the difficulty of each of the avenues of exploration, and sort out which avenues would receive how much of the large, but ultimately limited, explorative capital that Deacon Industries had.
With that out of the way, the explorative operations would be devised by the departnt and the teams would set out to execute the operations. The results of the initial explorations would have the Exploration Departnt re-evaluate the allocation of capital before further exploration endeavors were conducted. This was a permanent cycle.
What Rui was interested in was the actual thodologies of exploration that the dispatched teams of Martial Squires used. After all, that was what he needed to know if he was to manipulate them into stumbling into the fourteenth floor.
"Oh…? Interesting…" Rui murmured as he read through the docunts. "Quite unique."
Apparently, the exploration teams of the Exploration Departnt of Deacon Industries use markers based on extrely potent esoteric substances that allow them to track the exact paths that they already explored previously.
"If the markers can be tracked even in the dungeon then they must be extrely potent to even partially resist the jamming effect of the Shionel Dungeon," Rui murmured.
He raised an eyebrow as an interesting idea entered his head.
"If the only bearings they have on what routes they were exploring are the markers, then this can be exploited," Rui smirked.
The fact that the Shionel Dungeon completely jamd the magnetic field of the planet ant that the natural internal compass that many species evolved to have was completely shot. On top of that the highly restricted senses and the uniformity of the dungeon ant that it was extrely easy to completely get lost in the dungeon very easily, one could think one was traversing a path that they normally traversed, but in reality, they could be traveling in the exact opposite direction and they would never realize it.
That was why the Exploration Departnt used cutting-edge path-tracking esoteric technology that would remain at least a little effective even despite the jamming nature of the Shionel Dungeon.
"…It would be a real sha if soone relocated those markers to manipulate the direction that the exploration team set out on, wouldn't it?" A mischievous smile rose on Rui's face. He didn't think he would find his winning strategy to have the exploration team stumble on the fourteenth team so soon. As long as he got all the details right, he could easily manipulate the exploration team to stumble on the fourteenth floor by removing the markers embedded into the land and placing them along a route that would lead to the fourteenth floor, or as close to it as he could.
"They will naturally co to discover the location as long as I get them close enough," Rui noted. "Though I probably shouldn't change the locations of the markers too drastically, that may evoke suspicion from the analysts of the Exploration Departnt of the Shionel Dungeon."
A combination of making the other paths undesirable to explore and relocating certain key markers, he ought to be able to cleanly redirect one of the exploration teams to the fourteenth floor.
"After that, we just have to kick back and watch as Chairman Deacon does all the back-breaking hard work for us," Rui smirked.
