Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Seeing that the opponent was completely dead, the Federation mecha operator breathed a sigh of relief, his entire body relaxing. Similarly, he had not noticed anything out of the ordinary. He was only secretly glad that the opponent had let out his breath earlier than he had, so the one who survived was him and not the other.
Hiding to one side, Ling Lan was just considering whether she should take the opportunity to come out and make contact with the other to obtain the latest battle situation when she suddenly felt her heart palpitate. Without even thinking about it, she pushed herself up with both arms and her entire body flew backwards rapidly.
Right then, a terrifying beam of light energy cascaded down from the sky, accompanied by a panicked cry that exploded in the air, "Hide..."
High up in the air, a Twilight mecha had discovered the surviving Federation mecha operator on the ground. He decisively raised the gun in his hand, and a powerful beam of light blasted out, shooting straight down. Not too far away from him, another Federation mecha had coincidentally discovered the other's actions. Shouting in surprise, he tried to raise his gun to stop the attack, but it was already too late.
The Federation mecha operator, who had been standing there resting, had no chance to react before he was completely swallowed up by that powerful beam of light energy...
With a loud "boom", the entire ground exploded, and a deep pit about 20 metres wide appeared there. Right then, that Federation mecha operator had completely disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace behind. Only the dark red soil stained with blood proved that a life had once existed there.
"Bastard! I'm going to kill you! " The indignant voice of the Federation mecha operator rang out once more, interspersed with the roar of countless guns and cannons.
In mid-air, another pair of Federation and Twilight mecha clashed, but no one knew who would truly survive in the end.
Less than 10 metres away from the deep pit, Ling Lan was currently sprawled on the ground, drenched in cold sweat, not daring to move at all. Luckily, she had sensed the danger, and so had dodged one step ahead of time. Otherwise, with that attack just now, if she had still been hiding in her original spot, she would definitely have been reduced to a puddle of blood just like that Federation mecha operator.
Even so, she was still hit by a broken tree that was blown up by the explosion, causing her to suffer some internal injuries. Ling Lan knew very well that in a mecha battle like this, her frail body would not be able to withstand it at all. She was already incredibly lucky to have been able to dodge it once.
"Boss, we might be able to use the mecha discarded by those two." Little Four was also very nervous at this moment. Ling Lan was trapped on the battlefield alone, and it was really too dangerous. She needed to have a mecha to have a chance of fighting the enemy. Little Four searched for a long time, and found that only the mecha that had been dropped at the beginning looked more complete, and there seemed to be some hope that it could be used.
"Let's wait for a while. Let those two mechas leave first," Ling Lan comforted Little Four as she used her Qi exercises to heal herself.
The area around the two mechas that had fallen to the ground had long been razed to the ground. There was no cover at all. If she went out like this, she would definitely be discovered by the two mecha fighting fiercely in the sky. Ling Lan definitely did not want to be hit by a sudden explosion like that Federation mecha operator, and then say goodbye to this world completely, leaving no trace behind.
Little Four knew that Ling Lan was right, so he kept quiet. However, the desire to have a mecha once again welled up in his heart. That way, he would be able to control the mecha's A.I. to help his boss.
Ling Lan's internal injuries were not too serious, but if they were not treated, there would still be some side effects, especially in this kind of dangerous place. Injuries meant that her combat ability would be reduced. Thus, the most important thing right now was to treat her internal injuries.
Thus, Ling Lan left the safety of her surroundings to Little Four to handle, while she herself focused on recuperating. Very soon, Ling Lan forgot about her surroundings and entered a deep state of recuperation...
When Ling Lan opened her eyes once more, she felt her entire body relax. The fatigue from rushing all the way here had disappeared. Ling Lan knew that this time, she had taken a deep breath to recuperate, allowing her entire body to recover to its peak state.
Ling Lan was in a good mood. She reflexively raised her head to look at the sky, and found that there was nothing up there. The two mecha fighting fiercely before she started recuperating were gone. Frowning slightly, Ling Lan asked, "Little Four, why didn't you remind me?" She did not know how much time she had wasted — if she had known that those two mecha were gone, she would have woken up earlier.
Little Four did not think that he had done anything wrong. He said confidently, "Only when you are well will we be able to find Zilong and the others more efficiently."
Ling Lan was rendered speechless by Little Four's words. After all, Little Four was doing this for her own good. If her injuries were not healed and she forced herself to look for the others, she would definitely be irresponsible if she dropped the ball at a critical moment when she was in danger.
Ling Lan simply tossed this question aside and cautiously crept towards the two fallen mecha. She did not forget to ask, "When did those two mecha leave?"
"Hm? They didn't leave... "Little Four did not catch on for a moment.
"Then where are they?" Ling Lan was so frightened by Little Four's words that she lay on the ground, not daring to move. Could it be that they were hiding in some corner? Why didn't this punk tell her earlier?
"Oh, they're lying on the ground 1000 metres away." Little Four's words instantly calmed Ling Lan's suspended heart down.
Not only that, Little Four even zoomed in on the scene 1000 metres away to Ling Lan's eyes. Only then did Ling Lan realise that the two mecha had perished together. 1000 metres away, there was also a deep pit. The two mecha had been entangled in a fierce battle and had fallen together. At the same time, the beam sabers in both mecha's hands had pierced into the other's cockpit. From the thick blood flowing out of the cockpit, it was clear that the mecha operators inside had almost no chance of survival.
"Little Four, monitor the surroundings, including above." Ling Lan sighed heavily, and then gave another order. On the battlefield, there was a life ending almost every minute. Ling Lan did not want to be the next one, so she needed to be aware of the situation around her so that she would not be ambushed by the enemy hiding in the corner.
Under Little Four's excellent monitoring, Ling Lan arrived safely at her destination. Little Four quickly inspected the two mecha and found that he could repair them. Ling Lan thought for a moment and then decided to operate the Federation's mecha. Although she also wanted to use this Twilight mecha to ambush the Twilight Empire's mecha, she thought about how chaotic the battlefield was, and how everyone was killing each other in a frenzy. If she was accidentally killed by the Federation, it would be too much of a waste.
Ling Lan quickly climbed into the cockpit. Little Four immediately took over control of the A.I., and the first thing he did was to close the cockpit door of the mecha, then turn on the mecha.
The mecha's screen lit up instantly, and then countless combinations of 'o' and '1' appeared. They popped up continuously from below, eventually filling up the entire screen …
"Boss, please wait patiently. I'm currently upgrading the A.I. and repairing some damaged driver programs." Little Four's voice suddenly rang out from the mecha's voice system.
Ling Lan waited for about three minutes, and finally, the countless' o 'and' 1's on the screen disappeared, finally condensing into two large Chinese characters: Aurora!
Very quickly, the two words' Aurora 'slowly disappeared from the screen. At the same time, the screen lit up, and Ling Lan felt her initial sense of isolation disappear. She saw an endless stretch of blue sky, and a few wisps of black smoke drifting over from who-knows-where.
"This mecha belongs to the Aurora series of advanced mecha." Ling Lan saw the two words' Aurora 'and knew what level the mecha she was operating was. Unexpectedly, her first time operating a real mecha had skipped basic mecha, low-level mecha, intermediate mecha, and directly reached advanced mecha. This was probably something other children would not even dare to imagine. "As expected, anything is possible on the battlefield!"
"The advantage of the Aurora series is speed and long-range attacks. In comparison, its close-range attacks are a little weaker," Little Four said regretfully. It should be known that whether it was physical skills or mecha operation, Ling Lan's close-range combat was stronger than her long-range attacks.
"Little Four, mecha don't have any so-called advantages or disadvantages. Whether it's strong or weak all depends on the ability of the operator." A smile appeared on Ling Lan's lips. Even if it was the weakest mecha, she was confident that she could play it well in close-range combat.
"Also, I found a tutorial video for Aurora control. Boss, do you want to take a look?" This was an advanced control after all, and some controls were still slightly different from basic control.
"Okay, just fast-forward." Ling Lan had already seen the control buttons. Most of them were similar to the basic mecha control buttons, and only a few were newly added. This was what Ling Lan wanted to see.
Very quickly, Ling Lan understood the newly added buttons. There was nothing strange about them — they were basically buttons for some cannon fodder weapons. Ling Lan did not use these in the first place, so now Ling Lan was even more confident.
"Unfortunately, other than the two high-frequency blades and the beam saber, this mecha doesn't have any other good close-range combat weapons." Little Four disliked the dullness of the high-frequency blades and the beam saber's piercing function.
"It's enough for me." Ling Lan nimbly operated the mecha and used her left hand to hold the beam saber. The length and piercing function of the beam saber gave off the feeling of a three-edged army knife. Ling Lan was very satisfied.
"Little Four, immediately check the number of remaining cannons and their energy levels." Ling Lan was not a rash person. Everything she did, she hoped to have everything under control.
"Head: Only two anti-air missiles left. Left arm: Beam shield has sufficient energy and can last for two hours of continuous combat. Beam saber has insufficient energy and can only last for about 40 minutes. Right arm: 57mm high-energy beam rifle, can fire 18 beam bullets consecutively. In addition, there are two rockets embedded in the chest that have not been used. As for the drive energy block, the main energy block has 20% energy left. Two auxiliary energy blocks have not been used. "Little Four reported the mecha's situation to Ling Lan one by one.
"If I'm flying, how long can I last? If I fight at full power, how long can I last?" Ling Lan asked Little Four about a few possible scenarios.
"If I'm just flying, 10 hours won't be a problem. If I fight at full power, I should be able to last for 30 minutes!" Little Four replied decisively.
"Got it." Ling Lan was confident. She operated her mecha to fly at a low altitude, quickly approaching Zilong and the others. Ling Lan did not choose to fly at a faster speed because she did not want to be discovered by the enemy in the air and be targeted …
