Noland Lee directly chose "Option Two" to increase the control limit of the Mechanos up to 12.
After placing the "Mental Beacon," Noland could use "Mental Vision" on the beacon to view the situation from afar.
Looking south from Noland's current position, the Blade Mountain Range was revealed as a narrow black edge on the southern horizon - this was the ridge of the mountains.
By rough estimation, Noland was at least 30 kilometers away from the cliffside of the northern part of the mountain range.
A level 20 "Mind Beacon" could be placed at any point within 29 kilometers of oneself, as long as Noland could see the location.
Noland could only see the top of the Blade Mountain Range now, but the double-winged mutants obviously wouldn't go to the windy summit to meet with the Imperial Army.
What he really wanted to focus on was the water outlet of Bunker No.16, which was located halfway up the mountain.
