Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Because of this, Zilong was so frustrated that he almost slammed his head into the wall. Luo Lang's eyes were brimming with tears, and the others were not much better off. After all, this was a mecha instructional battle by a god-class operator — how lucky must they be to be able to witness it? But they could only watch as this opportunity slipped through their fingers, unable to do anything about it.
Ling Lan could only console them, promising that there would still be chances in the future. When that time came, she would definitely inform them beforehand to enter the combat room to watch the battle. Only then was the resentment of this bunch of brats appeased.
It was also because of this reason that Ling Lan did not immediately set up a password to prevent strangers from entering. By the time she had finished consoling her little companions, the two of them had already entered the hidden room.
"No need. Since they have already come to this room, it can be considered fate that brought them together. Besides, they don't know us. Let them watch. If they are inspired, that is also their fate. " Ling Xiao was indifferent to this. He had no intention of being complacent, or else he would not have been so often invited to PK with others on the combat arena of the military. The stronger the Federation mecha operators were, the happier Ling Xiao would be. He was a pure soldier.
"Since Father has said so, then let them stay." Ling Lan agreed with her father's view. The mecha operators of Mecha World could be said to have come from the entire Federation star system. No one knew who the other was or what planet they came from. If they could really benefit from this, then it would indeed be good karma.
Ling Lan recalled the first time she had entered Mecha World. She had met that cheetah mecha. They had not known each other, but they had an unusual rapport. During that time, if the other had not been by her side, encouraging and supervising each other, she might not have been able to make it through that boring basic training.
Ling Lan cherished this sort of heaven-sent fate, so she did not want to obstruct the other's opportunity. Since her father had no objections, Ling Lan allowed them to watch the battle from the sidelines. Of course, the prerequisite was that they knew their limits and did not disturb them.
On the stage, the two mecha who had been standing casually began to shift. The intermediate mecha suddenly reached out and drew out a long weapon from its back, assuming an attacking stance. The imperial mecha, on the other hand, remained motionless.
Seeing this, Zhao Jun could not help but ask quietly, "Lanfeng, this battle will probably be decided in one move. The difference in strength between the two is too great — an intermediate mecha operator definitely won't be able to withstand an attack from an imperial mecha."
"That won't happen," Li Lanfeng's Zhao Jun, "Zhao" Lanfeng "
"Huh? Why? "Zhao Jun,,
"Wang," Wang, "Zhao Jun," Jun "Zhao, Lanfeng, Li" "Lan" Lan, Lan's Lanfeng, "Lan Lan, Wang's Lanfeng's Feng's Feng's. , Lanfeng. was of Ling Ling Imperial. Li's editor to Editor's Lucas's, Lmn's Lan Liu's Editor's Lucas's King's Imperial's Lan's, Ace, Lanfeng, Long Lanfeng and Ling
"In other words, this is an instructional battle." Zhao Jun's eyes lit up. Instructional battles were not only useful for the combatants themselves — spectators could also learn a lot from them. However, Zhao Jun began to worry again, and asked cautiously, "Lanfeng, do you think they'll chase us out? After all, this kind of instructional battle is related to the secrets of certain legacy factions."
Li Lanfeng glared at Zhao Jun exasperatedly. "You only noticed this now? Still, it's been so long. They haven't chased us out yet, so it's very likely that they've acknowledged our existence. "
"Huh? Really? "Li Lanfeng's words made Zhao Jun overjoyed.
"Yes. Of course, they might also think that we're people they're familiar with. However, this possibility is almost zero, so it can be ruled out." Li Lanfeng knew very well that Mecha World could indeed hide one's ID. Unless one exchanged a friend's name card with the other, only then would one be able to learn the other's name. However, this was ineffective against top-class experts like imperial operators. This was Mecha World's respect for imperial operators. It could be imagined that the other must have known that the two of them were strangers.
"I think that the reason they haven't chased us out yet is because they want to give us a chance." Li Lanfeng felt that this was the most likely explanation. Many top-class experts believed very much in the concept of chance. Perhaps the other thought that this was a chance between him and Zhao Jun, and so decided to let them go.
"That's great!" Zhao Jun clenched his fists in excitement. Li Lanfeng's words had made him extremely emotional. If he could really learn something from this imperial operator, he would never forget this favour for the rest of his life.
"Our luck today is really too good..." exclaimed Li Lanfeng. Perhaps his fate was not as tragic as he had imagined. Would this be his turning point?
"Ah, they're starting!" exclaimed Zhao Jun, instantly pulling Li Lanfeng's scattered thoughts back.
On the field, the two mecha with a great disparity in strength finally clashed for the first time.
Facing her unfathomable father, Ling Xiao, this time, Ling Lan chose to take the initiative to attack. She did not have the confidence to deal with her father's powerful attacks, so she decided to strike first to gain the upper hand.
Ling Lan operated her own mecha to sprint forward like a gust of wind, attacking Ling Xiao's mecha. When they were about 3 metres apart, Regretless, which had been hanging low, was suddenly lifted up. With a diagonal slash, it drew a cold arc through the air.
This was a mid-range attack! While Ling Lan had been waiting, she had already thought things through. Her father's mecha only had short weapons like short blades and short swords. He did not have a long weapon like Regretless to contend with her. This undoubtedly gave Ling Lan a definite advantage in terms of weapons, and it was also the only advantage she had.
"Not bad!" Seeing his daughter choose to use a long weapon for a mid-range attack, Ling Xiao gave his approval without hesitation. Facing his powerful self, Ling Lan, who had no chance of winning, could still choose to use her strongest point to attack his weakness. Ling Lan's calmness and scheming were undoubtedly outstanding.
However, Ling Xiao was a god-class operator after all. Moreover, he was operating a powerful imperial mecha. Whether it was in terms of control technique or mecha advantage, he was far superior to Ling Lan. The moves that Ling Lan had painstakingly researched to counter her opponent were useless against Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao operated his mecha to slide elegantly to the side, dodging this vicious slash. At the same time, his mecha's arms slammed against the slash, actually executing his mecha's empty-handed blade block.
Although Ling Lan's attack was already so fast that the eye could not keep up with it, for Ling Xiao, it was still a little too slow. He easily caught Ling Lan's Regretless between his palms.
"Ling Lan, this move is useless against me," said Ling Xiao with a smile. "You need to think of another way."
"Father, don't be too careless." Ling Lan's mecha's right arm suddenly jerked, and then pulled back forcefully. Ling Xiao felt the longsword in his mecha's palms slip like a slippery fish, slipping out of his tightly clenched palms.
Ling Xiao was surprised. He immediately retreated in a flash, once again putting some distance between himself and Ling Lan.
He stared curiously at Regretless in Ling Lan's hands, and could not help but ask, "This weapon is very unique. What are its properties?" These properties were something that even Ling Xiao had never encountered before.
"Its properties are toughness and sharpness," replied Ling Lan.
Ling Xiao immediately opened his mecha's palm, and saw an extremely faint scratch on his palm. Ling Lan could not help but gasp in amazement. It should be known that the outer shell of an imperial mecha was so sturdy that even the Federation's strongest beam saber would not be able to leave a scratch on the outer shell of an imperial mecha in a single strike. Unexpectedly, this Regretless had managed to do so...
"This weapon, it's very powerful," praised Ling Xiao.
"This is a product researched and created by a senior in the military academy. As long as it's used properly, it will not become obsolete even after being equipped with an ace mecha." Ling Lan was indeed very fond of this weapon, and when she introduced it, she was clearly a little proud.
"When that senior of yours grows up, he will modify this weapon a second or third time. Who knows, it might even be used for a longer period of time," said Ling Xiao with a sigh.
"It can be modified a second or third time?" Ling Lan was curious. She had thought that all weapons were modified in one go.
"Of course. That's why a mature mecha battle clan must have an outstanding mechanic. He can allow the battle clan's combat strength to increase exponentially." Of course, at imperial level and above, all of this was just fleeting clouds.
"Aren't mecha battle clans all formed by the mecha specialization?" Ling Xiao's words confused Ling Lan. She had thought that mecha battle clans were all formed by people from the mecha piloting specialization.
"Of course not..." replied Ling Xiao, stunned. Could it be that Ling Lan did not know this? Ling Xiao paused for a moment before understanding. Usually, it was the father's job to guide these things, and he had been missing for 16 years. When he had returned, he had been tied up with all sorts of affairs, so he had not had the chance to get along well with his daughter, much less teach her these things.
Of course, if a student's father was not a mecha operator and thus did not receive the relevant guidance, by the time they reached the second year of the military academy, there would be a mecha instructor to guide the students in forming or joining a battle clan. At that time, Ling Lan would also be able to understand the composition of a battle clan. However, right now, Ling Lan was still a first year student and had not yet had the chance to understand all this.
At this thought, Ling Xiao said apologetically, "This is all my fault. I didn't teach you this knowledge in time." At the end of the day, it was his dereliction of duty as a father.
"Actually, the members of a mecha battle clan are not just limited to the mecha piloting specialization. They include many other specializations, and it all depends on what path your specialization needs to take. Generally speaking, a battle clan needs three types of mecha warriors: close combat, comprehensive, and long-range. Then, they need support, which includes maintenance, doctors, resources, and so on. Thus, even the smallest battle clan needs at least 6 people. However, this type of small battle clan has no way of providing support, so right now, a mature mecha battle clan needs at least 12 people, at least 8 mecha warriors, and 4 support personnel. " Ling Xiao explained, "With two mecha warriors leading one support personnel, only then can the mecha battle clan continue to operate. Everyone can improve without wasting resources."
The support personnel needed to be provided by warriors, otherwise, the support personnel would have no way or resources to improve their own abilities. This was also the reason why small battle clans were gradually being eliminated. Of course, battle clans could abandon support personnel, but this type of battle clan would definitely not have the ability to compete with other well-equipped battle clans. Elimination was inevitable.
