"I'm sorry. I'm in the process of breaking through so my control is a little unstable," Ling Lan said calmly.
'So that's why!'
Yu Huan and Ke Yufeng were enlightened. They had also experienced this before. In order to increase the success rate of breaking through, they would first suppress the explosive Qi-Jin energy and wait until they had stored enough energy. When everything was ready, they would then focus on breaking through. It wasn't easy to suppress their Qi-Jin. Sometimes, they had to use all their strength. At that time, they were in a 'sleepwalking' state.
This explained why Regiment Commander Ling's murderous aura was so strong the moment he entered the room. It must be because he couldn't control his Qi-Jin well enough. Even if he suppressed his murderous aura, he wouldn't have enough energy to control the chilling aura.
However, was he breaking through to the domain stage with his Qi-Jin?
The two of them looked at each other. Although they couldn't see each other's face, they couldn't hide how young he was. As expected, he was a talented youngster. Other than the prodigies from Long Xiang, no one else could be compared to him.
He must be a talent that the military nurtured. No wonder he could become a major general at such a young age and become the regiment commander of a titled mecha clan. He even had members from the Southern Dipper and Northern Dipper as his assistants.
Yu Huan and Ke Yufeng felt that they had found the answer. They started paying more attention to Ling Lan. As long as this person didn't die halfway, he would definitely enter the military in the future and become one of the decision-makers.
Ling Lan quickly brought Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong out of the command center.
Ke Yufeng still needed to settle the paperwork for his departure. He agreed with Ling Lan that he would hand over his duties in an hour.
The meeting room in Yu Huan's office returned to its original state. It was just him and Ke Yufeng.
"What do you think?" Yu Huan, who had been smiling all this while, finally stopped smiling and turned to ask Ke Yufeng.
"Lingtian is not simple," Ke Yufeng said calmly.
"What do you mean?" Yu Huan asked seriously. There were millions of soldiers in the base. He couldn't just hand over the lives of all the soldiers in the base to someone he wasn't familiar with.
"It seems like Yang Mingzhi is the one leading the conversation. However, when Yang Mingzhi answers the questions, he would look at Major General Ling first." Ke Yufeng's right hand was sparkling with fluorescent light while over 10 translucent crystal beads were rotating rapidly. What was more surprising was that there was no sound at all as if those beads had never collided with each other.
This was Ke Yufeng's habit of thinking. Whenever he encountered something that he valued but was unable to make a judgment, he would use this method to empty his mind and then search for possible clues to facilitate his final judgment.
"Liu Furong was the same. From the start, his attention never left Regiment Commander Ling. I could even tell that he was a little nervous." Yu Huan agreed with Ke Yufeng's judgment. At the same time, he shared his findings.
"A titled battle pet warrior of the Southern Dipper or Northern Dipper wouldn't be nervous just because of an officer of the same rank. The only person that could make him nervous would be Regiment Commander Ling," Ke Yufeng continued.
"That's right. Hence, when he said that he was about to break through and that his control was unstable, it might be true." Yu Huan pressed his hands on his desk. There was a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
"You don't suspect that he did it on purpose?" Ke Yufeng gave an amused smile.
"If there wasn't anyone from the Southern Dipper or Northern Dipper, I might consider this. However, who is Yang Mingzhi?" Yu Huan's eyes were filled with nostalgia. "He became a member of the Southern Dipper because of his craftiness. Do you think that he would allow his regiment commander to offend me when he just entered the base?"
"Indeed. Yang Mingzhi isn't that stupid." Ke Yufeng agreed with Yu Huan.
"More importantly, who is this Ling Lan? Is he the one controlling Lingtian? "Yu Huan felt that he would know what to do once he figured out these two points.
"I still remember the battle on Planet Haijiao half a year ago. There was a young man with the surname Ling who shocked the entire Federation," Ke Yufeng said thoughtfully.
"Prince Ling?" Yu Huan leaned against his desk and crossed his arms. "I don't know why. Maybe they wanted to protect him. In the end, they didn't announce his name to the entire army. They just used his name as Prince Ling."
"But everyone in the world knows that this young man is General Ling Xiao's son!" Ke Yufeng replied.
"You think that it's him?" Yu Huan raised his eyebrows.
"Is it not possible?" Ke Yufeng replied.
"Theoretically, it's possible. However, the backlash from activating a god-class mecha above his level has been determined by the top military doctors in the military hospital. His body will be completely destroyed and he will never be able to recover …" Yu Huan asked, "Do you think that Prince Ling will appear here alive and well and tell me that he's in the midst of a breakthrough?"
'Do you think that the doctors in the Federation are all weaklings?'
"But the Ling family … has always had a phoenix that can be reborn." Ke Yufeng sighed. He didn't know if he was hoping that Prince Ling could be reborn or if he was just hoping that it was a dream.
"It's just a legend." Yu Huan said firmly, "This is the era of technology."
Was it? Then, why was there a physical skills system? Why were there innate talents? Why was there a domain concept? All of this couldn't be explained by technology.
However, humans were just like that. They respected power and could accept the acquisition of power. After all, this was something that humans could do. However, things like being reborn from blood and coming back from the dead were miracles that went beyond theory. No one could understand it. Hence, legends were just legends. The phoenix that could be reborn from the blood of the Ling family only meant that the Ling family was more resilient than normal people.
Ke Yufeng just mentioned it. Since Yu Huan didn't agree with it, he didn't say anything else.
"Forget it. We will find out about the Lingtian Mecha Clan sooner or later. I'm not in a hurry." Yu Huan couldn't think of a reason so he could only put this matter aside and help Ke Yufeng with the paperwork.
Before the new mecha clan was registered in the base, the old mecha clan wasn't allowed to leave. They were afraid that there would be a mistake in the handover and it would affect the strength of the base.
After walking out of the command center, Ling Lan said to Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong, "During this period of time, the mecha clan will stay in the base and communicate with the base. I'll let the ten team leaders and Head Lin be in charge of it."
"Regiment commander, what about you?" Liu Furong asked worriedly. Ling Lan's sleepwalking time was getting longer and longer. Would she be able to do it without anyone watching over her?
"The domain concept energy in my body has accumulated to a limit. If I want to control it, I have to use all my strength. I don't have the energy to deal with the matters of the mecha clan." Ling Lan frowned.
She didn't think that the opportunity to enter the imperial stage that she had been waiting for would suddenly appear when she was trying her best to perfect the Lingtian Mecha Clan. It caught her off guard.
