When everyone realized this, it was because even after leaving the Simulation Realm, the Mechanical Fortress continued to advance at full speed.
The smooth and level ground was crushed into large pits by the Mechanical Fortress, instantly becoming uneven.
Inside the control room.
Baiyu calmly pulled the deceleration lever, while Jiang Han was sweating profusely in urgency. A group of operators were frantically maintaining the fortress's balance.
"Baiyu, stop quickly, or we'll crash into the buildings soon."
The military district is located in the Inner City.
The buildings here are densely packed, and once it crashes, it could trigger a chain reaction, affecting a large area.
More importantly, it could damage the Mechanical Fortress and cause casualties among the people outside.
Such a large structure is extremely troublesome to repair.
"No worries, everything is within my calculations."
Baiyu stared intently at the screen.
Jiang Han didn't know what to say and could only start ordering preparations for an emergency landing and pod ejection.
However.
Just as everyone was worried.
Suddenly, the speed of the Mechanical Fortress slowed down, and then, without hesitation, the massive structure plunged into the water with a loud splash.
This was a large pool.
It seemed to have been a fountain before, but after the demons attacked Mountain City, it might have been destroyed by the panicked crowd.
As a result, the entire area collapsed.
Together with the underlying water supply system, it formed a large pool, into which the Mechanical Fortress just happened to plunge.
Jiang Han was speechless for a long time, and only after the fortress came to a complete stop did he say with a peculiar expression, "Was this also within your calculations?"
Baiyu smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Anyway, we got out of the Simulation Realm in the shortest time.
If we were any slower.
We might have been surrounded by demons and gotten into a bitter fight."
Baiyu's words were indeed true; from the start until now, they had encountered several demon troops on the way.
But because of the Mechanical Fortress's speed, they weren't surrounded.
Jiang Han nodded, secretly vowing never to ride in any vehicle driven by Baiyu again.
This guy is just a menace.
"There's no time to lose, Director Bai, let's gather all the remaining departments of Mountain City."
After a brief recovery.
Jiang Han resumed his decisive manner, starting to handle the issues of the Mountain City Simulation Realm.
Baiyu had no objections.
...
Soon.
After Baiyu, Jiang Han, and Wulin jointly issued an announcement, the headquarters of the Security Bureau and all the usable army leaders of Mountain City arrived.
Though Baiyu was the Director of the Security Bureau.
Adding the two Warband Leaders from the army, this kind of summon was probably the strongest in the city under the current circumstances.
"The most important thing now is to find a way to eliminate the Simulation Realm of Mountain City and rescue the people inside."
Inside the conference room.
Jiang Han knocked on the table and stated the most urgent issue.
However.
No one spoke up.
If there were a choice, who would be willing to go to the Simulation Realm, a place where entering might mean immediate death?
According to the Imperial statistics, the survival rate of humans in the Simulation Realm.
Has not exceeded ten percent, meaning out of one hundred people who enter, less than ten will come out alive.
Moreover.
Even those who survive, their subsequent lives will likely be affected by the experiences in the Simulation Realm, with their spirits possibly collapsing shortly after.
This kind of mission.
No one wants to undertake.
Jiang Han and Wulin had anticipated this situation.
"Everyone, I know you don't want to go, even I had to use every means to escape from the Simulation Realm.
However.
If we don't go in.
The Simulation Realm will keep expanding, eventually encompassing the entire Mountain City, and by then, none of us will have a way out.
Waiting around means awaiting doom.
If we take the initiative, we might still have a chance, and we have already come out of the Simulation Realm once. We have the experience, and the survival rate will significantly increase."
At this moment, Baiyu stood up to persuade the crowd.
These people present had strength, but some were older and clung to life and feared death.
The group fell into silence.
At this point, life and death are no longer issues for one or two individuals.
However.
The reason this group doesn't want to risk their lives for a way out is firstly because they believe Mountain City can't be breached and secondly, if it is breached, they think they can escape to Villiduo through Mountain City's teleportation channels.
When people have too many backup plans, they won't give their all to anything.
However.
Now it seemed both hopes had been dashed.
Judging by the current situation in Mountain City, it is very likely that demons will indeed invade. By the time Qiu Yun and He Jin return with the large army, who knows how long it will take.
As for the Teleportation Gate...
It seems Baiyu did not plan for that.
"Mountain City is in such a critical situation, and we've grown here for generations. Naturally, we can't let it fall into the demons' hands!"
At this moment.
A clan leader arranged by Baiyu stood up and said.
Once he spoke.
The others couldn't hold on anymore.
Besides fighting to the death, they really didn't have any other methods.
Soon.
Under the joint organization of Jiang Han and Wulin, an expedition team was quickly formed, consisting entirely of Tier Four Martial Artists.
Along with three Grandmasters.
These are the stabilizing forces of several major families in Mountain City, belonging to the level of ancestral patriarchs, all invited to participate.
Baiyu speculated.
There should still be many experts in Mountain City.
But now, everyone hasn't really stepped forward to take action, and obviously, these people won't appear before the true moment of life and death.
Baiyu didn't intend to rely on that group.
Those are senior figures with strong powers, and even Qiu Yun and He Jin would find it hard to order them around usually, and he even less so.
Considering his age and qualifications.
On normal days, there's already dissent, not to mention among those senior figures.
Soon.
After the formation of the expedition team, they formulated a series of battle plans.
Immediately after.
The Mechanical Fortress was set into action again.
Jiang Han and Wulin marked several target locations on the planned route, where remaining warbands might be present.
Clearly.
It was unrealistic to find the demon who created the Simulation Realm directly.
Jiang Han and Wulin's idea was to rescue as many warbands trapped in the Simulation Realm as possible.
This way, they could maximize combat power liberation.
Apart from the Shadow Warriors and the Mechanical Corps, they marked several points, and Baiyu counted them carefully.
At least four warbands were still inside the Simulation Realm.
"Let's go to the Blood Knight Order side first." Baiyu said, pointing to a red dot on the map.
Wulin and Jiang Han had no objections.
Besides.
In the operations room of the Mechanical Fortress, three elderly men in their fifties were present. They didn't speak but sat quietly, listening to Baiyu and the others plan tactics.
