Qiu Yun and He Jin saw the situation and were worried sick.
More distressing was that they couldn't reach Yao Shuii, and the chaos within Mountain City was rampant. Without the Director stepping in to control the situation, it was very difficult for them to intervene.
"Sir, the Legendary Ship Erza has started moving."
Just when the two of them were at their wits' end.
A scout hurriedly reported in.
These days, the Legendary Ship had been hovering above Mountain City, serving as a huge deterrent.
However.
Upon seeing the Legendary Ship remain motionless for so long, the demons gradually lost their fear and dared to approach the area covered by the Legendary Ship.
Yet no one could get close to the Legendary Ship.
Now.
The colossal object shrouding Mountain City finally began to move.
It's impossible for everyone not to feel excited.
Qiu Yun and He Jin gazed at the direction the Legendary Ship was moving and took a deep breath.
The direction the Legendary Ship was heading was the military zone of Mountain City, which verified that sothing was indeed wrong in the military district.
"It seems that Baiyu is in trouble within the military district. The movent of the Legendary Ship will certainly attract a large number of demons, presenting an opportunity for us.
No matter the reason.
This is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity that Baiyu has created for us. Just this once."
At this mont, Qiu Yun made a decisive decision.
He Jin nodded, took out a signal flare from his pocket, and set it off.
Boom.
A special firework burst in the sky.
This signal flare inford all potential official and semi-official organizations within Mountain City, whether it be the Bounty Hunter Association, Veterans Mutual Aid Association, or the Security Bureau, that the ti for the decisive battle had arrived.
Currently, the situation in Mountain City.
The demons had occupied the outskirts and outer city of Mountain City and were truly invading the Inner City. There was still the strength to battle within the city.
If organized by a strong force.
They could form a strong army.
Taking advantage of the current strength left in the city, combined with the opportunity Baiyu created, it was the perfect ti to attack.
Soon.
After Qiu Yun gave the order to charge, the army regrouped and transford into a steel torrent, surging towards the city.
The defenses and Spirit Array of Mountain City.
Would not affect Mountain City's military.
So they could actually make a swift entrance into the city.
However.
Upon entering the city, they were t with an overwhelming number of demons and alien races.
They ford a flesh-and-blood frontline, forcing the army to retreat with each advance.
However.
This ti, Qiu Yun and He Jin had issued an ultimatum.
Not to retreat even a step.
They must capture the massive number of demons in the city.
...
In the Simulation Realm.
Having received word through the Heart of the Dance from Erza that they were in position, Baiyu boldly ventured into the most polluted area.
Of course.
This was, in his sense, the most severely polluted place.
And upon reaching this location, Baiyu also sensed its uniqueness.
The interior of the military district was originally made of concrete and bricks.
But the ground here.
Was bright red.
In the sky.
The flowing blood river here seed particularly close, as if it was pressing against the sky, continuously flowing down.
Gurgle-gurgle.
The sound of the flowing blood river continuously echoed in Baiyu's ears.
Up close, the blood river had bubbles constantly erging, with human skulls floating within.
Apart from this blood river.
The ground was also a vivid red, as if the stone bricks had been stained with fresh blood.
From afar, Baiyu could already sll the scent of fresh blood.
Several deford demons crawled over blood-red ruins, devouring the corpses on the ground.
Baiyu observed.
So corpses had been gnawed beyond recognition, revealing deep white bones.
He continued to advance.
The surroundings grew ever redder, with nurous swamps oozing from the ground, all of them filled with vivid red blood.
Within these blood pools.
Various fish-like creatures crawled up and down.
Most of these fish were bright red, having long since mutated. Now, they leaped out of the blood pools, baring fierce faces at Baiyu, then plunged back in with a splash.
There were many such pitted ponds.
Looking out, Baiyu couldn't see their end.
As he moved forward.
Cang Yan in his mind was already trembling in fear.
"Baiyu, maybe we should retreat. This place looks creepy," Cang Yan carefully suggested.
"Shut up, close your mouth, this could very well be the place where the Simulation Realm originated."
Baiyu retrieved the Great Guan Blade from his scholar's space.
The Great Guan Blade, forged from Living Iron, was extrely sharp, glinting coldly in the air.
Baiyu proceeded deep into the area.
The ground's redness beca almost glaringly bright.
After crossing a ruin caused by the collapse of a skyscraper, the scenery before him opened up.
It was a vast square.
Surrounded by stone-like grey trees, each one towering and magnificent, with heights of at least a hundred ters and radii of several ters at least.
They looked.
Like a series of massive chimneys.
And suspended from these giant trees were stone vines, each as thick as a giant python.
They twisted and tangled fiercely together.
Interlaced intricately.
Hanging down from the trees, almost filling a person's vision, forming a gray wall.
Baiyu was certain.
This kind of thing was definitely not present in the previous military district.
This structure.
Could not possibly have been constructed deliberately.
Otherwise, the manpower and resources wasted would be astronomical.
But as he approached, he found that these massive trees and vines were made of stone, resembling exquisite sculptures.
And in the middle of these trees.
All the vines ford a massive, oval disc, enveloped in blood-red light, obscuring what was within.
Baiyu's heart skipped a beat.
Just coming close to this place evoked uncontrollable evil thoughts within him.
Swish...
Layers of golden scales appeared on his arm.
This was a sign of mutation.
No one could resist pollution and mutation.
Baiyu was only highly resistant to pollution, but whether it was the mouth at the center of his palm or the scales growing on his arms, they all evidenced localized mutation.
However, his mutation was sowhat peculiar.
Not only could it return to normal, but it wouldn't affect his daily life when away from high pollution sources.
And wouldn't disrupt at critical monts.
Thus Baiyu always appeared normal.
And various pollution and mutation tests couldn't detect anything—doctors always said he was normal.
And after consuming the Golden Fruit.
The scales on Baiyu's hand completely turned golden, gleaming and dazzling.
After these scales appeared.
The murmurs in Baiyu's head suddenly diminished greatly.
And at this mont.
The disc in the center of the large trees, ford by vines, suddenly emitted a blood-red glow.
