Tang Rui looked at the holographic projection screen in front of him, displaying a frenzied battlefield. He had no idea how things had suddenly come to this point.
To be honest, he never expected the war to erupt so suddenly. In his plan, Ah Mu would pilot a mech, wreaking havoc in Jerusalem, demolishing buildings and eliminating the armed forces of Israelis.
There would only be two possible outcomes.
One was that the Iranians game card would run out, and then he would use the excuse of the mech needing maintenance to control it and return home.
The other outcome, also after the game card ran out, would be the mech’s retreat, Israel’s two neighbors would see an opportunity and send troops to attack.
But with the support of the Americans, Israel would still manage to survive, albeit with significant losses.
Normally, the course of the war should have been like this.
But who could have imagined that the current war situation had become uncontrollable? Not only had Israelis gone mad, but even its neighbors had lost their senses, all rushing headlong into battle.
Even the old soldiers of the Middle East family dared to charge into the gunfire at this time.
Can you believe it?
To Tang Rui, it all seemed quite fantastical.
“Master, Lin Chao has sent a communication request. Do you want to connect?”
“Connect.”
Upon seeing Lin Chao’s call, Tang Rui knew that there must be some instructions from above.
“What’s up, Brother Lin?” Tang Rui asked directly.
“Pull the mech back,” Lin Chao immediately replied.
“That’s it? Just pull it back?”
“Yes, the situation over there is out of our control, and the Americans are urgently convening a United Nations meeting to discuss the issue.”
“Alright, I got it.”
After hanging up the communication, Tang Rui adjusted the holographic projection’s image.
Then he saw Ah Mu piloting the mech, wreaking havoc on the Holy Mountain, especially against the relics of the First and Second Holy Temples, completely obliterating them.
Seeing this scene, Tang Rui’s mouth twitched.
A fine war mech.
In their hands, it had become a demolition robot.
“Red Lotus, take over control of the mech. You mean…”
“Yes, Master.”
Elsewhere.
As Ah Mu, busy destroying the Second Holy Temple’s relics, raised the long sword in his hand to slash at the buried stone blocks, aiming to destroy the foundation.
But just then, the blade of the long sword in the mech’s hand, its plasma light suddenly extinguished.
An alarm sounded on the mech.
Then its control privileges were stripped away.
[Due to improper operation and use, the mech’s plasma blade magnetic confinement device is damaged, and the internal drive motor needs urgent repair]
Looking at the red system prompt in front of him, Ah Mu was bewildered.
It was fine just a moment ago.
Why did it suddenly break down?
And his operating privileges were also stripped away.
“I can’t control the mech anymore,” said Ah Mu.
“Huh? What’s the reason?” Ah Nei anxiously asked.
“The system says the mech is damaged and needs repair,” Ah Mu replied, omitting his own operational issues.
“It can’t be. We’ve already paid. Contact Crimson right away and have them return the mech.”
Unfortunately, that was just their wishful thinking.
The mech wasn’t going to be returned.
On the battlefield, the mech retracted its sword and, under Red Lotus’s control, slowly headed towards the sea.
There was no place to set foot on land.
The entire area around Tifa was a battlefield.
So, the mech had no choice but to retreat from the seabed.
As for flying?
That was unnecessary.
Neither Israel nor the Middle East paid any attention to the mech’s retreat.
Their only concern was each other.
At that moment, their sole belief was to annihilate the heretics in front of them and completely destroy the opposition.
The Israelis really wanted to keep the mech.
But unfortunately, they lacked the capability and means to do so.
And at the moment, they also lacked the energy to worry about the mech.
Hundreds of missiles had rained down on them.
Even with their anti-air systems at full capacity and the Iron Dome laser system overloaded, they couldn’t intercept them all.
They could only prioritize intercepting the more powerful missiles.
As for the rest, they were helpless.
For a time, the entire Jerusalem was ablaze, buildings were destroyed, and numerous military facilities were devastated.
Faced with such a situation, Israelis opened up its arsenal.
In such an emergency, a nation with universal conscription could muster over 6 million troops, a true embodiment of a nation in arms.
But even so, the situation at the front was not optimistic.
They couldn’t even push the enemy out of their territory, as enemy reinforcements were continuously arriving.
The main enemy force was expected to arrive in 4 hours, and that would be the most difficult time.
But even so, they had no thoughts of surrendering, or rather, even if they wanted to, the enemy wouldn’t agree.
Both sides were completely crazed.
On a battlefield stretching over a hundred kilometers, Israel, with its geographical and weapon advantages, had to face enemy charges every moment, like facing a torrential downpour of death.
The moment their firepower weakened slightly.
The enemy would reach their positions.
The intensity of this war was on par with the Battle of Verdun, a pure meat grinder..
