Yun You hurriedly returned to the camp with Tian En, who had already lost the ability to move.
However, she didn't take the girl directly to Mokaka but instead placed her in the tent where she had stayed before.
Now... the relationship between Tian En and Mokaka was really strange. If they faced each other directly, it might make both of them feel awkward.
Yun You did so in the hope that Mokaka could focus more on the "real business" at hand.
Of course, Mokaka also noticed their figures, but she hesitated to speak and didn't make a fuss about it.
"How's the situation?"
After settling Tian En, Yun You quickly returned to Mokaka's side, glancing around the camp.
At the mont, thanks to Mokaka's efforts, the camp had regained so liveliness.
Although the number of people was far less exaggerated than before—when there were thousands at the drop of a hat—there were still several hundred, making it the largest human gathering place on the Floating Island currently.
"Very bad."
While transporting so stains, Mokaka lightly shook her head.
"According to surveillance, in just under half an hour, the Karma Remnant Buddha has already trampled across 70% of the Floating Island's land."
"Almost all the large War Gangs have been completely annihilated, and the casualties among the ordinary personnel are severe as well. Previously, of the citizens who escaped from here, 60% have died."
"This place should be considered the last area that hasn't been trampled by it yet."
"But..."
As she spoke, Mokaka seed to hesitate.
Yet Yun You understood what she wanted to say.
Although the camp hadn't been trampled for a while, the noise and vitality of hundreds of people here would eventually attract the Alef Creatures; it was just a matter of ti.
In less than half an hour, the Karma Remnant Buddha had almost covered the entire Floating Island.
If what Tian En said before was true, then a Karma Remnant Buddha that could exist for three more days could indeed stomp over the island a dozen tis.
"Have you tried using other thods to interfere with it?"
Yun You glanced at the large drones on the ground and asked, "Now that that guy's been weakened, maybe it's lost so of its previous... 'indestructible' traits."
"I know..."
Mokaka bit her lip and said helplessly, "So, the mont it started to change, I controlled a swarm of drones to fly directly over it to try to bomb it."
"But it was the sa issue as before. As long as the Imasurable Calamity exists, slow-moving objects simply can't get close... So the bombs dropped by the drones were shredded by the Imasurable Calamity before they even hit it."
"And even if they could get close, it wouldn't have much effect."
"Three minutes ago, we observed a group of War Gang survivors in the factory area who dragged out a cannon from sowhere and fired at the top of the Great Buddha statue's head..."
"However, the armor-piercing shot shattered upon hitting the Buddha's face, without even leaving a scratch."
"This ans the 'indestructibility' trait of the Great Buddha statue still exists..."
Upon hearing this, Yun You furrowed her brow deeply.
Given the size of the Karma Remnant Buddha, it couldn't possibly be hard fundantally by a small cannonball.
But if this shell couldn't even scratch it, it only confird that it still possessed the indestructible characteristic.
What could be done...
After pondering for a long ti, Yun You couldn't think of a viable solution.
She hesitated for a mont and then tentatively asked, "Have you tried attacking the outer barrier of the Death Domain Space?"
"The one made of red lines, wrapping around the Floating Island."
Mokaka shook her head.
"We can't break through it, don't get your hopes too high."
"Although the Death Domain barrier itself doesn't have the 'indestructible' trait, its hardness is such that even a large-scale nuclear device probably wouldn't shatter it."
As she spoke, she gently rubbed her aching temples and murmured, "The only solution we can think of now is to calculate the Karma Remnant Buddha's movent trajectory in advance and then move the camp along the edge outside the Imasurable Calamity's range."
"Even though it's picking up pace, from what we can see, it still takes nearly half a minute per step to cover several hundred ters."
"This is faster than soone on foot, but if I can equip everyone with a drone and have the drone carry them, we might just be able to outpace the Great Buddha statue."
"But honestly, this thod is still too risky... It feels like walking a tightrope."
"Hmm..."
Yun You nodded silently.
The Karma Remnant Buddha's physical body might not be excessively large; its two feet and the lotus platform beneath might cover an area of several hundred ters... roughly equivalent to about one percent of a region's size.
However, its Imasurable Calamity affects everything within a few kiloters radius, and if it takes just a step, it can slice through half a region.
In more military terms, its "lethal radius" is simply too vast.
This ans that if Mokaka miscalculates or if it suddenly changes direction while people are evacuating, there would be nowhere to hide, and they would be instantly sliced apart.
"If we can't do anything else, we should resort to this thod."
Yun You spoke softly, "No matter how dangerous, it's still better than waiting here to die."
The logic makes sense.
But execution would be incredibly challenging, so much so that both of them could already imagine how many people would die along the way if they truly did it...
