Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Han Jijun was unexpectedly calm, directly objecting to both their opinions.
Han Jijun believed that if they acted recklessly when the situation was unclear, they would instead alert the enemy, possibly worsening the situation. If the enemy became apprehensive and moved Luo Lang to a more secluded place, it would be even more disadvantageous for them to find him. If the enemy successfully hid Luo Lang for a month, even if they found Luo Lang, Luo Lang's future would be ruined by the enemy. Rather than that, they might as well wait patiently for Boss Lan to come out before making a decision.
The annual assessment for military academy cadets was extremely strict — absenteeism for a month for no reason would result in their right to enroll being stripped. Many factions would use some despicable methods to snatch talents. Kidnapping was one of them, but it was extremely rare. After all, there was still the monitoring team of the military academy monitoring all the registered factions. Other than those factions who were confident they could do it flawlessly, the average faction would not use this method.
Meanwhile, the members of the New Cadet Regiment seated here had a vague feeling that Luo Lang had probably been kidnapped, but they did not know whether it was an individual or a faction that had done it...
This incident made the members of the New Cadet Regiment feel rather downcast. They had all been prides of the Central Scout Academy, growing up smoothly. Under the leadership of Ling Lan, they had encountered almost no setbacks. The moment they entered the military academy, even though the situation had forced them to accept the wager, they had swiftly turned the tables and defeated the Leiting Mecha Clan when no one thought they would win...
It had to be said that they had begun to grow proud, their self-confidence bursting, thinking that no faction would be able to stand against the rise of the New Cadet Regiment. However, right at this time, Luo Lang had mysteriously disappeared right under their noses. This incident was like a bucket of cold water being poured over their heads, making them understand that the waters of the military academy were deep — it was still too early for them to be cocky.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! " From the top of the stairs to the bottom came the rhythmic and firm sound of military boots. It was powerful and firm, which calmed down the nervous hearts of the few people sitting at the bottom. Almost at the same time, they stood up and looked back. A familiar figure walked down the stairs. Their eyes suddenly lit up, and a flame called hope flickered in them.
Ling Lan walked down the stairs with a frosty expression. Seeing the few of them, she instructed, "Wu Jiong, all of you just wait here and pretend that nothing has happened..." Even though Ling Lan's tone was still indifferent, everyone present could feel the faint murderous aura emanating from Ling Lan, and a chill went straight to their hearts.
Boss Lan was angry! Everyone understood what this meant.
Wu Jiong was taken aback, but he quickly understood and said, "Understood, Boss Lan!"
Han Jijun frowned, a hint of worry flashing through his eyes. He asked, "Boss Lan, are you planning to act alone?"
"Yes, I've already found Luo Lang's whereabouts. However, that place isn't suitable for a group operation. If I go alone, it'll be more convenient for me to save Luo Lang," Ling Lan explained.
"Who is the other party?" Xie Yi suddenly asked, her eyes filled with anger.
"The Tianji Mecha Clan!" Ling Lan spat out each word through gritted teeth. The anger she had been suppressing all this while exploded at the mention of these five words. Her right hand could not help but slam down on the handrail at the top of the stairs. With a crack, the hardwood handrail was actually split into two by Ling Lan's furious palm strike.
Seeing this, Han Jijun's expression changed drastically. "Boss Lan, could something have happened to Luo Lang?"
Following this question, the expressions of the others also changed drastically. Several pairs of furious eyes glared at Ling Lan, hoping that Ling Lan would tell them the answer.
Ling Lan gritted her teeth and said, "Not yet, but there is no guarantee that there won't be any in the future. So, I need to rush over as soon as possible..."
Ling Lan glanced at Wu Jiong, Han Jijun, and the others, and said, "Wu Jiong, Jijyun, I'll leave this place to you two. No matter what happens, you two must hold the fort for me. Remember, our New Cadet Regiment doesn't know anything, and no one has gone out... Meanwhile, Luo Lang has only gone to the Medical Research Centre for a check-up."
After giving these instructions, Ling Lan left the villa with quick steps without looking back, quickly disappearing into the night.
Wu Jiong retracted his gaze and turned to ask Han Jijun in confusion, "Han Jijun, what do you think Boss Lan is planning?"
Han Jijun gestured for the others to return to the sofa in the living room and have Lin Zhong-qing bring over some cards to pass the time. Then, he replied, "The Tianji Mecha Clan is about to meet a tragic end..."
"Ah?" Wu Jiong had only guessed that Ling Lan was preparing to go alone to rescue Luo Lang, so he could not understand why Ling Lan would not let anyone else know that it was the Tianji Mecha Clan who had abducted Luo Lang.
Han Jijun only shook his head, not intending to clear Wu Jiong's doubts. This made Wu Jiong restless and impatient — even when he was playing cards, he was not at his best.
Xie Yi was actually also rather uncertain, but he knew what his position was, so he did not dwell on this matter. Thus, he was not as restless as Wu Jiong. In the end, it was still Lin Zhong-qing who could not help but remind Wu Jiong, "If no one knows that Luo Lang was abducted by the Tianji Mecha Clan, then there is no way to prove that the person who wiped out the Tianji headquarters today was our Boss Lan..."
Wu Jiong's eyes lit up. "I see." However, he quickly became dejected and pointed out the loophole. "But every place in the military academy has surveillance equipment..."
Han Jijun smiled coldly. "How much do you know about Boss Lan's methods? Since Boss Lan wants you to do this, then do it. There won't be any mistakes."
Wu Jiong suddenly remembered that back on the spaceship, Boss Lan had once successfully taken control of the surveillance equipment. His eyes lit up once more and he shouted, "I understand!"
This shout drew cold glances from the other three, and Han Jijun said with even more disdain, "Since you understand, then keep your voice down. Do you want to draw everyone here and expose the evidence that Boss Lan is not here?"
Wu Jiong was mocked by Han Jijun's cold glare, but he was not angry. Since he had an answer to the question in his heart, he could now play cards in peace...
Meanwhile, the moment Ling Lan stepped out of the door, she asked Little Four in her mindspace, "Tianji headquarters. Which direction should I go?"
Little Four immediately tossed her a map. On it was marked the location of Ling Lan's current location, as well as the target's location marked with a red flag. It could be said to be very clear at a glance. Little Four knew what Ling Lan was going to do on this trip, so he had to think of a way to reduce Ling Lan's energy expenditure. After all, destroying a headquarters was still very taxing, so it was best to conserve energy when needed.
Ling Lan decided to listen to Little Four's advice. With a single step, she moved over a hundred metres, and with two steps, she arrived at the hover stop closest to her dormitory, waiting for the hover car to arrive. Even if she had to conserve her energy, time was still of the essence. She did not want Luo Lang to be bullied before she closed the door.
The hover car arrived very quickly, and Ling Lan hopped onto it like a ghost. Without needing Ling Lan to type anything, Little Four had taken the initiative to choose a stop about one kilometre away for Ling Lan, and blocked the message it had typed.
On the mainframe of the military academy, the hover car Ling Lan was in was still an empty hover car cruising around the military academy. Meanwhile, the surveillance footage of the time Ling Lan had been on and off the hover car had also been altered. Of course, Little Four had done it perfectly, so no one would find any traces of tampering...
Just like that, without anyone or any equipment to prove her identity, Ling Lan walked out of her villa.
In a certain room in Tianji headquarters, a white-clothed youth was enduring the intense pain in his body, swallowing the special healing medicine his subordinate had sent over.
"Brother Xi, are you alright?" asked a blue-clothed man worriedly.
"I really f * cking didn't expect that Luo Lang's spiritual power to be so strong, able to resist my ability," said the white-clothed youth hatefully, "Not only that, it even backfired on me, causing me to be injured."
He had clearly let down his guard and believed the other's words, so why had he come to his senses at the last moment? And it was at that time that he had been injured — if he had not forcefully held back, the other might have seen through his disguise. It was also because he had forcefully held back the power of the backlash that his injuries had worsened by 30%.
"When I recover, I will definitely torture that fellow properly." A vicious expression appeared on the white-clothed youth's face, completely destroying his originally handsome features, leaving behind only endless savagery.
"Congratulations, Brother Xi. Not only have you obtained a beauty, you've also obtained a physical skills prodigy, adding yet another great help to our Tianji Mecha Clan." From one side, Lu YongGuang congratulated him with a fawning expression. This greatly improved the white-clothed youth's mood, and much of the viciousness on his face disappeared, returning him to a handsome, righteous, and sunny youth.
"Your performance this time was not bad. Later, go to the contribution department to claim a second-tier resource. I'll give you my warrant later." The white-clothed youth was in a good mood, and began to reward his subordinate for his meritorious service.
"Thank you, Brother Xi, thank you, Brother Xi." Lu YongGuang was pleasantly surprised. He had originally thought that a third-tier resource would be very good, but who would have thought that Brother Xi would actually be so generous this time?
A blue-clothed man beside Lu YongGuang seemed to feel that something was wrong, and was just about to speak up to remind him when he was tugged on by his companion, indicating for him to be quiet. This person before him was a headstrong and self-opinionated person, not that righteous regiment commander currently in seclusion.
After enjoying Lu YongGuang's flattery, the white-clothed youth abruptly thought of something, and asked anxiously, "You've erased all traces, right? Are you sure no one will be able to find this place? "
Lu YongGuang replied proudly, "Don't worry, Brother Xi. Everything has been taken care of. Even if the number one hacker Lin Zhidong makes a move, he won't be able to find any traces in a short time." That said, he laughed, "The New Cadet Regiment was also seeking death, offending Leiting. Do you think Lin Zhidong will make a move? Definitely not. As for the others... I believe no one will be able to decipher my methods. "
Hearing Lu YongGuang's words, the white-clothed youth instantly smiled in relief. His worries were gone — as long as he was given enough time, he would definitely be able to successfully train that beauty, and in the end, make her submit to him in body and mind.
The white-clothed youth was so confident because his spiritual mutation was a type of mystical hypnotism. He could easily gain the favour of others — if he wanted to make the other fall head over heels in love with him, as long as he was given enough time, he would succeed. Just like his previous few lovers, he had succeeded in this way. Even now, they still thought that they were willing.
