"...Why can't he come?"
"My boss said he's trapped somewhere that seems to be Mechanical City's Core Control Room. He can't get out."
The Grand Elder fell silent.
So he really was there.
A moment later, the Grand Elder spoke again, his voice more urgent. "Are you sure he's in the Core Control Room?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
"Tell him... to press his right hand against the main control console. An option to leave will pop up."

Physically destroy the entrances and completely cut off the channels through which the zombies were pouring in.
The moment this order was issued, three elders stood up.

The elders opened it, and images popped up one after another.
One glance was enough to chill everyone's hearts.
The zombies had not arrived yet,
