Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 280 - 146: Arson! Burn the City!

As soon as Su Yu spoke, the scene fell into silence. Everyone was stunned by the shocking news revealed by Su Yu.

In fact, when Su Yu initiated the gathering earlier, everyone had speculated that Su Yu was planning a major battle against the Ghost Tribe.

However, there was still some uncertainty among the crowd, because it happened so quickly.

The Mechanical City had just been completed for a few days. Many had just arrived here and weren’t even familiar with the roads yet, and now they were about to go to war?

Fast or not, the strength of the Mechanical City was evident to everyone, so even if they had guessed about the impending battle, they weren’t too worried initially.

But now, upon hearing Su Yu describe the situation of the Ghost City, everyone realized that the opponent’s strength was unexpectedly terrifying!

One hundred thousand Ghost Demons, what does that mean?

Each Ghost Demon is at least equivalent to a Transcendent! And among those hundred thousand Ghost Demons, how many are four-star or five-star powerhouses? No one dared to think about it.

Yet in the entire Mechanical City, there are only thirteen hundred Transcendents.

A hundredfold difference! The Ghost Demons even outnumber the population of the Mechanical City!

"One hundred thousand Ghost Demons! Isn’t the entire Ghost Tribe dead? Has the Ghost Tribe gone mad?"

"One hundred thousand Ghost Demons with even a terrifying seven-star presence, how can we fight? The Administrator probably hasn’t reached seven-star level yet, right?"

"We only have a little over a thousand Transcendents. Even with the Administrator’s mechanical army, it’s not enough!"

"Too fast, too fast, there’s simply no time!"

"If only we could give the Administrator more time to create more Wanderers..."

In everyone’s mind, they quickly calculated the power difference between the enemy and us, growing more and more hopeless with each calculation.

Although no one voiced it, their anxious and fearful eyes betrayed them.

The gap between the enemy and us is too wide; we simply can’t fight.

Not only the three thousand combat personnel, but many residents of the city had also heard the news and gathered nearby, naturally overhearing the earlier conversation.

These ordinary residents, being non-combatants, felt even more terrified.

Many of them had just settled in the Mechanical City, enjoying the safety and stability of life here.

Yet after only a few days, they now faced such a massive battle.

After this battle, can the Mechanical City still exist?

If the Mechanical City no longer exists, is there any place left to survive in this Dead Silence Wilderness?

Even before the army set out, there was already panic within the Mechanical City.

"The morale is unstable..."

Su Yu scanned the crowd, seeing everyone’s expressions and contemplating silently in his heart.

However, he thought for a moment and nodded inwardly: "Actually, it’s not bad. No one directly voiced wanting to retreat."

Facing a powerful enemy, it’s normal for everyone to feel fear and terror.

Yet not a single person voiced retreat, not even those who just joined the Mechanical City.

This indicates that Su Yu’s authority among the crowd is firmly established, with no one daring to openly defy him.

Su Yu wasn’t gathering these people for their combat power—the combat strength depended on the mechanical army.

Su Yu wanted them to obey and carry out his orders to help gather resources.

Although Su Yu could create a powerful mechanical army, the intelligence of the mechanical army ultimately couldn’t compare to living people.

Many miscellaneous tasks still rely on these people to complete. Their obedience greatly satisfies Su Yu.

Of course, these people didn’t speak up, also because they were organizing their thoughts.

Looking at Yang Lie, Hu Wen, Lang Yun, Huang Ying, Feng Tian... and others, they all seemed eager to speak but were unsure how, clearly having something to say.

But Su Yu didn’t give them a chance to speak, simply waving his hand: "Move out!"

Then, he led his mechanical army out through the city gate first.

Seeing this, the three thousand combat personnel could only put away their thoughts and follow behind.

Since the Administrator decided to lead the battle personally, they could only follow. Moreover, with Su Yu being so assertive, could he truly have a hidden card to defeat a hundred thousand Ghost Demons?

With these thoughts, the army set off, heading towards the Ghost Tribe two hundred kilometers away.

No combat personnel were left in the Mechanical City.

Anyway, the Mechanical City had strong defenses and the Mechanical Spirit, so there was no fear of a Radiation Beast attack.

Su Yu and his mechanical army traveled on foot, maintaining a speed of sixty kilometers per hour.

The remaining three thousand combat personnel mostly rode on vehicles.

Over an hour later, when the group got within one hundred kilometers of the Ghost Tribe, they saw the faint mist spreading in the wilderness, and their hearts skipped a beat.

They all sensed the Ghost Energy Radiation contained within that mist.

Though this radiation was faint, short-term exposure wouldn’t cause much harm.

But now they were so far from the Ghost Tribe; how intense would the radiation be once they got closer?

Indeed, the closer they got to the Ghost Tribe, the thicker the mist became.

When they reached the vicinity of the Ghost Tribe, seeing the twenty-kilometer expanse of gray mist, everyone turned pale.

The concentration of Ghost Energy Radiation within that mist was terrifying enough to cause corrosion without even entering it.

If it weren’t for the Flame of Truth stored in their vehicles, some would likely have mutated from the radiation, leading to heavy casualties before the battle even began.

However, Su Yu’s expression remained unchanged as he observed the mist thoughtfully.

Seeing Su Yu’s calm demeanor, everyone else managed to steady their nerves.
