A Top Scholar in Everything Chapter 693 679: Control Room

Outside, gunfire rages.

From the display screen, the chanical Fortress can be seen charging and crashing like a giant crab, crushing countless mutants along the way.

These frail flesh are almost helpless under the crushing of the cold steel monster.

Baiyu watched for a while and then stopped.

The external situation is essentially one he can't assist with; the chanical Fortress's defense and combat capabilities are not weak. Previously surrounded by demons, it couldn't perform at full strength. Now breaking free, it shows the power of this steel monster.

Thud, thud, thud.

After Baiyu rested for a mont, Cha Shan walked in wearing a new combat suit, and bowed to Baiyu upon entering.

"Thank you, Director Bai, for rescuing ; otherwise... I wouldn't know how to reach the rendezvous point and join the main force."

She bowed deeply.

The tight combat suit caused her chest to sway slightly.

Baiyu put down his teacup and shook his head: "It was just a trivial act, I originally entered the Simulation Realm to find the remaining troops; you could say you helped .

It's too early to discuss these things now.

Let's go outside and talk; if we can't resolve the Simulation Realm, our lives are at stake."

Cha Shan nodded, knowing Baiyu was right; she was not a coy person, expressing her gratitude before she continued: "Director Bai, would you like to visit our chanical Corps' combat equipnt room?"

Baiyu was indeed interested.

This chanical Fortress is not too big or too small; there should be about three to four hundred people inside, not feeling crowded.

Soon, under Cha Shan's lead, Baiyu and she started touring inside the fortress.

Though it's quite absurd.

The current situation indeed is like this; Baiyu certainly doesn't understand the chanical Fortress's combat operations better than Jiang Han.

The person is an Imperial major general, battle-hardened.

And also the commander of the chanical Corps.

Baiyu never pointed fingers in areas where he wasn't skilled; doing so would worsen the situation and create unnecessary conflicts.

So right now.

He could only rely on Jiang Han.

If the chanical Fortress were truly breached, he would deal with it then, but Baiyu was confident about his self-preservation.

Soon.

Cha Shan led Baiyu all the way to the equipnt room.

This place is at the core of the chanical Fortress, housing sets of tal cha, all displayed on cha platforms.

These cha are different from chanical Armant.

They are more like a tal exoskeleton, both wearing and removing are cumberso.

Cha Shan even demonstrated it for Baiyu on the spot.

The complexity of donning it was incomparable to chanical Armant.

And the power wasn't as good as chanical Armant.

The only possible advantage is that this external tal skeleton has many information interfaces, and doesn't require Blood Qi to operate; even ordinary people can wear and control it to obtain strength comparable to martial artists.

Of course.

This isn't the true combat power of the chanical Corps.

This tal exoskeleton's greater role is to protect the human body while providing the ability to control real cha.

Like Shelters and Legendary Ships.

In the Empire, there are three types of armors, all extracted from ancient human technology.

The most well-known and powerful is the Titan Armor.

That's a giant robot; to operate a Titan, one must wear the tal exoskeleton armor and enter the Titan's interior.

A Titan Battle Armor.

Requires at least five people to operate inside.

The other two types of armor are nad Phoenix Armor and White Tiger Armor.

These are less common, Baiyu has only heard of them and seen their illustrations in so highly confidential books.

Conversely, Titan Armor.

Baiyu was fortunate to have seen it once in Zenith City.

Although at that ti, Zenith City had already been breached, a couple of Titan Armors couldn't change the situation.

"Our battle group has two Phoenix Armors and five Titan Armors, but the ones left in the fortress now are only the Phoenix Armors."

Cha Shan explained to Baiyu.

Titan's size is too large, even if disassembled, it couldn't fit inside such a chanical Fortress.

Otherwise, it would occupy too much space.

Phoenix Armor should be close to the size of a human and thus would be stored in the chanical Fortress.

"Unfortunately, my clearance isn't high enough to access the Phoenix Armor, otherwise, I'd show you over there."

Cha Shan's words carried a hint of regret.

Not everyone has access to the Phoenix Armor, Baiyu estimated that probably only a few have the privilege to use it.

The two didn't stay in the weapons room for long.

In Baiyu's hand, the communicator that Jiang Han temporarily gave started ringing, the other party searching for him.

Not wasting ti.

Baiyu quickly hurried back to the previous conference room with Cha Shan.

Jiang Han stood inside, dusty from travel, and beside him was a man clothed entirely in black robes and attire, exuding almost no spiritual or Blood Qi fluctuations.

His face was hidden under a black mask, making it difficult to glean any useful information from his appearance.

This is the characteristic of a Shadow Warrior.

Shadow Warriors mostly engage in assassination and protection work, concealing their identity greatly aids many operations and tasks.

"This is the leader of the Shadow Warrior Battle Group, Wulin."

"This is the head of the Mountain City Security Bureau, Lord Baiyu."

Jiang Han introduced the two.

Wulin appeared to be the quiet type; after the introductions, he respectfully saluted Baiyu and then sat beside him, remaining silent.

Jiang Han softly remarked to Baiyu: "The people in Leader Wu's group suffered heavy casualties this ti, so he's having a hard ti emotionally.

Although everyone is accustod to life and death.

However.

With brothers who have gone through life and death together for many years, losing more than half is difficult for anyone to quickly recover from."

Jiang Han's eyes carried a lancholic expression.

While Baiyu and Cha Shan were touring the inside of the chanical Fortress, outside had long since reached the Shadow Warrior Battle Group's rendezvous point.

By the ti Jiang Han arrived.

The Shadow Warrior Battle Group was involved in fierce combat with a demon troop, in the heat of battle. If not for the chanical Fortress arriving, this group might have been extinguished right there.

In fact, most battle groups based in the military district might have been on the verge of annihilation amidst this demon wave.

Right now, every rescue possible must be executed.

"Director Bai, the next steps rely on you. Wandering aimlessly in the Simulation Realm can easily result in lost directions."

Jiang Han looked at Baiyu.

Baiyu nodded and went with him to the control room.

The control room of the chanical Fortress is a super-sized command center built within the fortress.

Its area is at least as large as a sports stadium.

The walls around are filled with countless chanical instrunts, with continuous alerts and warning sounds.

In the control room, about seventy or eighty people were busy.

Each person scurrying about, overwheld with tasks.

To control such a giant chanical Fortress in action is definitely not a simple task; having so many control buttons in such a complex machine is normal.
