CHAPTER 466: CHAPTER 230: TERMINAL

Beacon??

Chen Jian was momentarily at a loss, not quite processing what Lin Yu was talking about.

But soon, the other person’s voice came through the headset again.

"We’re in Mountain City!"

"We took down a Mountain City Person! He’s a human! A real human!"

"He can talk, he’s no different from us!"

"He’s been tracking us! No! He’s controlling those monsters to track us!"

"We hid inside Mountain City! Those monsters didn’t follow us in!"

"They are not allowed to destroy the buildings within Mountain City ---- it was the person we took down who was controlling those monsters!"

"Beacon! You have to activate the beacon!"

"This person is controlling the monsters through the beacon!"

As the words fell, Chen Jian suddenly realized.

The so-called "beacon" that Lin Yu kept mentioning was the item previously captured by the three Forbidden Army members!

Indeed, the monsters were controlled by that "beacon."

But the problem is, does it still work now?

Even if it works, can Lin Yu really control the monsters through the beacon?

---- No, now is not the time to consider that.

After a brief silence, Chen Jian decisively ordered:

"Fu Xi, restore the beacon function, and immediately arrange for a drone to deploy the beacon above Jinling City."

"How long do you need? Give me a time!"

"It will take 25 minutes."

Fu Xi’s voice came through the headset.

"Understood, 25 minutes."

It’s still time.

According to Yu Qian’s feedback, Jinling City’s defenses can hold for at least another two hours.

And in those two hours, it’s enough time for me to complete this trial and error!

Thinking of this, Chen Jian continued to speak:

"Lin Yu, how did you contact us? Do you have any other communication devices on you?"

"No!"

Lin Yu’s voice sounded a bit rushed, mixed with violent crash sounds.

"We got that Mountain City Person’s communicator, this communicator has radio ---- it’s bundled with radio, but it clearly has more than just communication functions!"

"There’s a... screen on it!"

"There are many things on the screen! And a map!"

"I’m trying to learn how to use it, but these monsters went crazy ----"

"Watch out!"

The voice of another person suddenly rang out, accompanied by a loud crash, and Lin Yu’s voice abruptly stopped.

"Lin Yu! Lin Yu!"

Chen Jian urgently called out repeatedly on the radio, but received no response.

What the hell?!

The monsters...

Have they already died at the hands of the monsters?

Shit!

Barely getting a chance that might end the battle completely, and even before the call lasted a minute, this hope was dashed again?!

At this moment, Chen Jian wished he could immediately fly to Mountain City and rescue Lin Yu from the monsters.

But he knew that he couldn’t!

The only thing he could do was pin his hopes on Lin Yu, hoping that he could escape the "monsters that have gone mad" in his words!

But what are his chances?

Chen Jian was anxious beyond words, and just then, Lin Yu’s voice came up again.

"The monsters! The monsters are going crazy!"

"This device works! It can control the monsters!"

"But it must be connected through the beacon!"

"I can see the position of all the monsters!"

"Many monsters are near Jinling City, but I can’t control them!"

"It shows on here... the beacon is disconnected!"

"You must find the beacon and activate it!"

"Just activate the beacon and we...."

"The beacon is with us!"

Chen Jian interrupted Lin Yu, then said:

"The beacon will be deployed in 23 minutes! What else do you need me to do?"

"Nothing ---- wait, I need you to tell me how to operate this thing!"

"When I touch the screen, it gives feedback, but I don’t know how to actually control the monsters!"

Screen??

Feedback?

Undoubtedly, it was a touchscreen.

Those Mountain City People established a whole system to control the monsters they dominate!

And what Lin Yu found was a control terminal!

This is now solid.

Chen Jian’s heart was pounding wildly.

He forcibly steadied his mind, then spoke:

"First, tell me what’s on that screen!"

"Lots of bright spots, lots of buttons, but I don’t know what those buttons mean!"

"I can’t stop! That Level 1 monster has already broken into the city, I have to leave quickly!"

"Don’t panic."

Chen Jian’s brain was spinning fast.

If what Lin Yu is holding is indeed a control terminal, then no doubt, it is based on an existing combat system.

Whether it is the old system he was familiar with or the War Skull system he encountered after coming into this world, the actual operation is not complex.

Select the target, issue instructions, specify the combat objective, that’s all.

The reason Lin Yu finds it complex is likely because he’s never seen this system, so he doesn’t know where to start.

But with the simplest guidance, he can quickly get started.

"First, find the bright spot that represents the monster! Find the one closest to you on the map!"

Chen Jian said.

"Got it ---- found it! What next?"

"Use your hand to touch the bright spot! The screen should pop up operation options!"

"Got it! I see it!"

Lin Yu’s voice had a note of excitement, Chen Jian quickly continued:

"If there’s a deployment option, choose deploy, then outline a path on the map, the monster will move along the path you outlined!"

"Got it, I----"

"Bang!"

With another loud noise, Lin Yu’s voice cut off abruptly.

At this moment, Chen Jian was already extremely anxious, and as the communication with Lin Yu was interrupted, Fu Xi’s voice opportunely came through.
