Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Ling Xiao and Ling Lan stayed in the forest, watching calmly as wave after wave of mecha came and left. Even though they had been hiding in the forest for close to an hour, there was not the slightest hint of impatience on their faces. It was clear to see that both father and daughter had superb endurance.
Ling Xiao glanced sideways at Ling Lan, who was operating her mecha without moving an inch beside him, and knew that his daughter was very calm. A feeling of pride once again rose in his heart. Just this level of endurance was not something an average person could possess.
As time passed, the grassland around them finally returned to its initial calm. Only then did Ling Lan move her mecha. She could not help but say, "Father, you'd better keep a low profile. Change to a more normal mecha." She did not want to keep hiding in the forest forever.
Ling Xiao was silent for a moment at her words, and then sighed and said, "This is already my worst mecha."
In his mecha bay, all the mecha were of a higher level than this one. One of them was even the so-called god-class mecha he had obtained after completing that terrifying mission, while several other mecha were custom-made versions specially gifted to him by Mecha World after he had created several imperial level techniques. These mecha all represented his personal identity — as long as he sat in one of those mecha, one would be able to guess who he was just by looking at the fire phoenix emblem on the chest...
Ling Lan was speechless, and the two of them once again fell silent. Right then, Ling Lan's heart clenched, and a sense of danger suddenly assaulted her. Without even thinking, Ling Lan chose to leap away at high speed. When she turned around, she saw Ling Xiao standing motionless beside her, slowly sheathing his two unsheathed short swords back into his back. On the ground below his mecha, two extremely ferocious-looking savage beasts were already lying on the ground.
Seeing this, Ling Lan's heart lurched. She had sensed danger earlier, and could only choose to dodge. However, Ling Xiao had his back to them, and yet he had easily dispatched the attacking savage beasts. From the corpses lying on the ground, it was clear that there was only one fatal wound on them. In other words, Ling Xiao instantly took out his sword and stabbed again, killing the two ferocious beasts in the blink of an eye.
It might seem simple, but it wasn't easy to do so. Berserk beasts had extremely strong vitality. Even if they were stabbed directly at their fatal weakness, their strong vitality would give these berserk beasts a chance to launch a final counterattack. Many people didn't dare to get close to these beasts because they were afraid of this.
However, none of this was a problem for Ling Xiao. His clean and efficient methods put an end to any danger.
"While stabbing the vital parts, you must instantly cut off their reflex nerves. This way, the Direbeast's ability to fight back will be destroyed. However, this kind of ability can only be obtained after thousands of trials and tribulations. You can't rush it. "Ling Xiao knew what Ling Lan was confused about, so he explained.
Ling Lan nodded at these words, a strange light flashing through her eyes. She found that her father, Ling Xiao, was probably the most suitable instructor in this world to teach her how to operate mecha.
In the learning space, Number Three was indeed very strong at operating mecha. However, due to the differences between the mecha of her world and the instructors' worlds, Ling Lan felt that there were some aspects of learning that were not very smooth. It should be said that the control methods Ling Lan learned were derived from Instructor Number Three's analysis of the mecha of this world, and then converted from the control methods of their world. Even though it was very advanced, there was no way to truly achieve 100% compatibility …
However, Ling Xiao was different. He was originally the top mecha operator of this world, and the control methods he learned were the results of thousands of years of accumulation in this world. It should be said that Ling Xiao's control methods were the most suitable for the current mecha of the Federation, and could also allow Ling Lan to truly understand the mecha of this world.
Ling Lan was a little frustrated at this moment. Why hadn't she discovered this point these past few days? She had actually wasted so many days for nothing. Knowing that her father's time was precious, Ling Lan decided that she could not waste any more of it. Thus, she said seriously to Ling Xiao, "Father should be free these few days, right?" Ling Lan's eyes were incomparably bright, filled with boundless longing …
Could it be that his daughter had finally experienced his fatherly love? Ling Xiao was pleasantly surprised. Didn't this mean that his daughter was willing to accept him, and could affectionately call him 'daddy' now? He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I'm very free."
"Then give me some guidance on mecha operation." Ling Lan's next words made Ling Xiao's mood fall from heaven straight to hell. His face was filled with grief, tears streaming down his face.
Daughter, your father came all this way to the military academy under a fake identity to build a strong father-daughter relationship with you, not to PK with you and become an instructor …
But faced with Ling Lan's dazzling and bright little eyes, Ling Xiao could not find it in himself to refuse. He could only nod and say, "Alright."
Ling Lan heard Ling Xiao agree and her lips quirked up. Even though Ling Xiao could not see his daughter's expression, he could inexplicably feel that his daughter was in an extremely good mood. He could only smile wryly and console himself — at least he had done something that made his daughter happy. His efforts had not been in vain.
The excited Ling Lan was a woman of action. Without another word, she brought her father back to the nearest city, Clear Breeze City, and sprinted all the way to the mecha combat hall in the centre of the city. After finding an empty room, she applied to enter the combat hall.
Ling Lan, who was so focused on interacting with Ling Xiao, did not notice that when she and Ling Xiao returned to Clear Breeze City, they had already been spotted by the sharp-eyed people at the city gates. It could not be helped — Ling Xiao's mecha was too unique — there was no way to hide it. One person was even sharper, instantly taking a picture of the two of them flying through the city and publishing it on the official website as soon as possible. The title of the post was naturally [The Presence of Top-Class Elites].
This news instantly caused a stir — within a few minutes, hundreds of millions of people had clicked on the post to view it. When someone pointed out that the bright and dazzling mecha in the picture was the top-class imperial mecha of Mecha World, the entire Mecha World was shaken.
It should be known that imperial operators were already very rare in Mecha World. These top-class masters were all old men who had been famous for more than a decade, or even several decades, and were basically living in seclusion, rarely seen. In fact, for a period of time, many people had even raised the question of whether imperial operators really existed in Mecha World. And this time, this picture proved that the legendary imperial operators did exist in Mecha World, and they had finally appeared.
Everyone was excited. In addition, the post had stated very clearly that this picture had been taken in Clear Breeze City. Now that they had found their bearings, the mecha operators all rushed towards Clear Breeze City … Fortunately, Ling Xiao and Ling Lan were extraordinarily fast. They did not linger in Clear Breeze City for long, heading straight into the mecha combat rooms to fight. Thus, they were lucky enough to avoid this crisis, not being directly blocked by these mecha operators who had rushed over after hearing the news and were unable to move.
Even so, within a few minutes, the small city of Clear Breeze City had become congested with traffic. People outside could not be transported in, and people inside could not be transported out. The entire city became unbearably crowded.
Inside the secret mecha combat room, after seeing the news that the top-class elite [Belief] had descended upon Mecha World, the two of them lost interest in continuing to fight. They also wanted to see the demeanor of the top-class elite [Belief], so they prepared to go outside and try their luck.
They had just left the secret room when Zhao Jun received a special message from his team member.
Seeing the message, Zhao Jun instantly stopped in his tracks. Li Lanfeng asked curiously, "You, what's the matter?"
Zhao Jun smiled wryly and said, "Looks like we won't be able to get out."
Huh? Taken aback, Li Lanfeng immediately used his communicator to check. After learning of the situation, he smiled wryly and said, "Who would have thought that [Belief] would actually be in Clear Breeze City? I really don't know if this is our fortune or misfortune …" Fortune was that they were in the same city, but misfortune was that they were trapped in the mecha combat hall, unable to get out.
"It's just that we are not fated to meet that elite," said Zhao Jun regretfully. "Since we can't get out, why don't we have another battle?" He did not want to be so crowded outside.
Li Lanfeng naturally agreed. "Sure."
Hearing Li Lanfeng agree, Zhao Jun lowered his head to contact the mecha combat hall's A.I. as he said, "Let's go back to the room 817 we were in earlier." As he spoke, he typed in the number 817, and without paying attention to the prompt at the back, he clicked in.
Seeing Zhao Jun's mecha suddenly disappear before his eyes, Li Lanfeng could only shake his head helplessly. He knew that the impatient Zhao Jun must have gone to room 817, so he hurriedly entered room 817 on the mecha combat hall's A.I., and then chose to enter …
Li Lanfeng inadvertently saw that the number of people in the room was 3 … huh? What was going on?
The next second, Li Lanfeng entered room 817. In the corner of the room, he saw Zhao Jun's familiar black special-class mecha. Not only that, in the centre of the room, there were currently two mecha facing off against each other. One was an extremely ordinary standard intermediate mecha, while the other was a dazzlingly beautiful mecha. With one look, Li Lanfeng could tell that this was a legendary top-class imperial mecha …
"What's going on?" Li Lanfeng was shocked by the scene before him, and quickly sent a private message to Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun quickly replied, "Shh, don't make a sound. That imperial mecha operator is probably [Belief]. Let's just watch quietly from the sidelines. Don't let them notice us and chase us out …" Zhao Jun tried his best to shrink his mecha. Right now, he really wished that his mecha could shrink instantly, preferably into dust so that it would not be visible to the naked eye.
Seeing Zhao Jun's actions, Li Lanfeng was at a loss for words. Didn't this fellow know that no matter how much he shrank, the two massive mecha they were piloting would not be able to shrink even a little? Instead, Zhao Jun's actions made him even more suspicious.
"Do you recognise those two mecha?" Ling Xiao had long seen the two mecha that had followed them in, so he asked Ling Lan.
Ling Lan shook her head and said, "I don't know them. Should we chase them out?"
She had left a message for a few of her companions, asking them to come to Room 817 of Clear Wind City to watch her mecha fight with Ling Xiao. However, Zilong and the others had quickly sent word that all traffic in Clear Wind City was already at a standstill — they could not get in at all.
