The Teleportation Light Gate is frequently used by people on regular days.
From Villiduo to Mountain City, this is the quickest and safest method.
However, today.
A crowd of forces from various parts of Mountain City surrounded the Teleportation Light Gate, making it impenetrable.
No one else even had the qualification to approach and take a look.
At this moment.
After Baiyu and the others patiently waited, ripples appeared inside the light gate, and a vague humanoid silhouette gradually emerged.
Once the silhouette fully solidified.
Baiyu and the others could clearly see that this was a woman of captivating beauty, exuding mature charm.
She wore a purple coat, loose casual pants, and her hair was styled in a bun, complementing her standard oval face.
Her features were exquisite.
Just standing there motionless, she exuded an alluring presence.
Her cold expression, paired with a confident stride, led people to instinctively avert their gaze upon meeting her eyes.
This person was not unfamiliar to Baiyu.
Although he had never interacted with her formally, her name was renowned throughout the Imperial.
Yao Shuimei.
Director of the Anomaly Bureau.
She holds jurisdiction over the entire East Prosperity Imperial's Anomaly Bureaus, being the highest authority in the Anomaly Bureau.
Equivalent to the former head superintendent or national security minister.
Her power is intimidating.
She is a member of the Imperial Twelve Council, and she often appears giving statements on East Prosperity Imperial's national television news.
"Director!"
At the moment Yao Shuimei appeared.
He Jin hurriedly bent over in greeting, his face full of respect, not daring to casually lift his head.
Once he bowed.
Everyone around followed suit in greeting.
Baiyu did the same.
After bowing to Yao Shuimei, he only resumed his stance once He Jin raised his head again, carefully sizing up this formidable woman.
Judging by her appearance.
She seemed no older than thirty.
With light makeup and eyes scrutinizing the crowd, it appeared she was assessing the strength of the Anomaly Bureau, Security Bureau, and Armed Department members.
A few seconds later.
She withdrew her gaze, a slight smile appearing on her face: "Director He, let's talk slowly at the Anomaly Bureau building, this isn't the place for conversation."
"Yes, ma'am."
He Jin promptly ordered the ready steam armored vehicle to head towards the Anomaly Bureau.
The journey was silent.
Upon reaching the Anomaly Bureau, Yao Shuimei looked at the orderly and dignified troops, nodding slightly in her mind.
Baiyu followed beside He Jin, observing quietly without speaking; maintaining silence was the best approach given the situation.
Yao Shuimei was dispatched by the Imperial to take over and organize Mountain City's entire situation.
Due to Qiu Yun's capture.
Her schedule was advanced significantly.
The group entered the Anomaly Bureau, directly taking the elevator to the top floor, arriving at the high-tech meeting room.
Baiyu seldom visited here; now, thanks to Yao Shuimei, he had the opportunity to explore it.
The entire floor was paved with polished white marble.
Shining brightly.
Anyone standing could see their reflection in the ground.
The surrounding walls were crafted from alloy, neatly lined with LED light tubes along it, illuminating the entire meeting room.
At the top of the meeting room hung a crystal chandelier, exuding a luxurious atmosphere.
And behind the podium at the front.
Was a giant projection screen, much like the massive screens found in cinemas in the past.
Besides this.
There were many special lighting effects facilities around, although He Jin hadn't turned them on, Baiyu didn't know what effects they might produce.
Electricity.
It is a luxurious item.
Especially various electrical appliances, entering the Radiant Calendar marked a substantial repression and replacement of such devices with steam machinery.
Not only in East Prosperity Imperial.
The entire Canglan Star follows this trend.
Electric appliances reduced to civilian equipment, yet their convenience made them difficult to part with.
If the influence of the Simulation Realm made electric appliances fail, it wouldn't hold in some instances.
Regardless, Baiyu hadn't expected.
That there existed such an electrified meeting room at the top floor of the Anomaly Bureau.
Click.
He Jin didn't hesitate, turning on the projector, starting to play video on the huge projection screen.
The video displayed scenes of the Demon Race and Shell People Race advancing.
The Demon Race composed not only of those walking on the ground, people with ram horns growing on their heads, but also many bizarre life forms.
Like human bats with giant bat wings flying in the air, or the centaur beings with four legs and equine bodies.
These all seemed part of the Demon Race.
Or rather.
Were vassals of the Demon Race.
Additionally, mixed among the army were colossal beasts as tall as skyscrapers, armored and bearing various vehicles and siege equipment, surrounded by flashing spiritual patterns.
These were Exotic Beasts tamed by other races.
The army was advancing in mighty fashion, and following the Demon Race troops were many humanoid creatures with hard shells, hunched backs.
This was the Shell People Race.
Their momentum was similarly impressive.
The combined forces of the two races, covering the sky and land, tumultuously raised clouds of dust.
The video lasted a total of three minutes.
After it ended, He Jin remarked, "This is the footage of the two races' advance; preliminary estimates suggest at least five hundred thousand non-human forces.
Even with Mountain City's support, a fierce battle is inevitable."
Most present were Mountain City's management.
Besides the top leaders of the Anomaly Bureau and Security Bureau, there were representatives from various departments and forces, like the Hunter Association, etc.
