The fifty All-Terrain Vehicles that passed through the Space Gate completely filled the room.
This forced the personnel entering the Space Gate afterward to climb over the obstacle zone formed by the All-Terrain Vehicles.
By the time the fifty All-Terrain Vehicles and the second batch of two hundred Combat Troops had passed through, the duration of the Space Gate was almost exhausted.
Using the remaining limited time, Gao Feng sent the collected Demon Race samples and recorded data back to Blue Star.
With more personnel and equipment arriving, the first thing to do was to open the passage and allow the All-Terrain Vehicles piled up in the castle to leave.
It should be noted that the fifty All-Terrain Vehicles that arrived this time carried not only a large amount of material supplies but also a large amount of heavy equipment.
For instance, some All-Terrain Vehicles were equipped with a Type 54 12.7mm Heavy Machine Gun.
Some All-Terrain Vehicles were fitted with launchers capable of firing 107mm Rockets, which could launch 14 107mm Rockets in a short period.
It can be said that these All-Terrain Vehicles will effectively increase the Combat Power of the Combat Troops.
More importantly, with these All-Terrain Vehicles, they would no longer need to huddle inside the castle but could launch attacks outward.
The reason they did not deploy Combat power outside the castle before was partly due to insufficient personnel, and partly due to a lack of Maneuverability.
Compared to various Demon Race members, even Special Forces like the Fierce Shark Special Forces had inferior wilderness Maneuverability.
In the wilderness, outrunning the Demon Race on foot was basically impossible.
However, things were different with All-Terrain Vehicles.
The speed of All-Terrain Vehicles generally reaches 60 kilometers per hour. Although the speed of many Demon Race members far exceeds that of humans, very few can reach 60 km/h.
The few Demon Race members who can reach this speed have very poor endurance. Therefore, the existence of All-Terrain Vehicles means that in wilderness situations, if they encounter the Demon Race, they can run away if they cannot win the fight.
Most of the Demon Race Side cannot catch up to the All-Terrain Vehicles, and those that can have poor endurance.
To release the 50 All-Terrain Vehicles from the castle, the Combat Troops had to carry out directional Blasting demolition on multiple sections of the castle walls.
With the assistance of a large number of professional Combat Engineers and equipment, the directional Blasting demolition was completed in just half an hour, allowing the 50 All-Terrain Vehicles to be successfully freed.
Gao Feng immediately dispatched several All-Terrain Vehicles to leave the castle to scout and monitor the group of Demon Race members that had previously moved east past the castle.

"Premier Jiang, Old Qian, according to our Academy of Sciences research, these Crystals are truly miraculous. We discovered that after these Crystals come into contact with the human body, they release a type of ray, and human cells, when irradiated by this ray, undergo rapid division and directional mutation."
"Normally, if the human body mutates, the vast majority of cases are detrimental. However, this ray, while causing cell mutation, can control it within the range of benign mutation."
"In other words, while 99.9% of original cell mutations are harmful, now they are strictly controlled within a limited beneficial scope. It is precisely because the cells are irradiated by this ray and undergo benign mutation that people develop Superpowers after a period of mutation."
Jiang Lijun asked a question after hearing Sun Fei speak.
"Then can everyone who touches these Crystals develop Superpowers?"
"That is not the case. After multiple rounds of comparison, we found that not everyone who contacts the Crystals develops Superpowers."
"Due to the size of the Crystals, the effective time is relatively limited. Therefore, only a very small number of people can meet the requirement to complete benign mutation and develop Superpowers within the limited time."
"People with any hereditary diseases or genetic defects cannot successfully obtain Superpowers after contacting these Crystals."
"According to preliminary calculations, the probability of gaining Superpowers after being exposed to this ray is less than 1%."
"That means 150 Crystals can only produce a maximum of two Superpower Users?"
"Not exactly. Although not everyone who contacts the Crystals can develop Superpowers, we can conduct prior genetic and hereditary disease screening to determine who is suitable for contacting the Crystals and awakening Superpowers."
Hearing this, Jiang Lijun and Qian Yingxi immediately understood.
The Awakening Crystals brought back by Yang Zhiwen indeed could not allow every user to awaken Superpowers, but they could use genetic testing to determine who would develop Superpowers after contacting the Awakening Crystals.
"Old Qian, immediately select suitable personnel from the military and conduct testing first."
"Get a few personnel to become Superpower Users as soon as possible; I have important use for them tomorrow."
"Is it to attract foreign attention?"
"Yes."
"Although the Superpower User incident in White Elephant Country has caused a huge stir, and various countries have focused significant attention there, the Jinling Military Region mobilizing four Combined Arms Brigades, along with a large number of researchers and support personnel, still attracted considerable attention."
"Personnel responsible for the blockade near the Space Gate have reported that in just a few hours, dozens of groups of unidentified personnel attempted to approach the restricted area."
"Relying on a blockade to conceal the news is too difficult in a place like Jiang Province. After all, Jiang Province has a large population and is a coastal province, a melting pot of people. The previous blockade alone involved a large number of personnel and resources."
"We need a new event to divert foreign attention, and Superpower Users are undoubtedly the best option."
"I plan to publicly announce the existence of several Superpower Users tomorrow."
"Is it really okay to directly announce the existence of Superpower Users?"
"Old Qian, you probably don't know yet? More and more videos and information about the Superpower User incident in White Elephant Country are leaking out."
"Although various countries are imposing blockades, the White Elephant Country Superpower User incident involved too many people. Furthermore, White Elephant Country itself does not have sufficient capability to block information flow. Therefore, even though it hasn't received official certification, a lot of hearsay has begun circulating among the public. There are even videos of White Elephant Country Superpower Users spreading on a small scale online, and the dark web even has listings openly selling related videos."
"Currently, ordinary people do not know about the existence of Superpower Users, simply because the blockade is still effective. As time goes on, information about Superpower Users will spread more widely."
"Furthermore, countries aware of the existence of Superpower Users have begun searching domestically and even in other parts of the world for other potential Superpower Users."
"At this time, announcing the existence of Superpower Users will draw the attention of all countries, providing sufficient convenience for the actions in Jiang Province."
"If that is the case, I have no objections!"
