Translator: H2dH2mr Editor: H2dH2mr With a loud 'bang', the intermediate mecha was sent flying backwards due to this collision. Meanwhile, Ling Xiao's body actually swayed slightly due to the astonishing power of this stomp technique.
"This isn't just a simple stomp technique..." Ling Xiao was astonished. Could it be that his daughter had added some special ability to her stomp technique?
Before Ling Xiao could recover from his shock, something even more astonishing happened. The speed at which the intermediate mecha was sent flying backwards was actually faster than the speed at which he had attacked Ling Xiao. In mid-air, Ling Lan did a flip and did not control her mecha, instead allowing her mecha to smash into the wall of the hidden room...
"Ahhhh, he's going to crash into the wall!" Even though Zhao Jun was extremely dissatisfied with the intermediate mecha's use of basic assessment moves to fight, seeing the other allow his mecha to crash into the wall at such high speed, Zhao Jun instantly cried out in concern.
Only Ling Xiao and Li Lanfeng's eyes flashed at the same time, but the content of their gazes was completely different.
Ling Xiao didn't think that his daughter was that weak. He believed that his daughter wouldn't really crash into the wall. Meanwhile, a skill that only belonged to rabbits appeared in Li Lanfeng's mind. "Rabbit sky leap!" Often, when the mecha seemed uncontrollable at high speed, the rabbit mecha would use this move to turn the situation around.
Sure enough, just as the intermediate mecha was about to crash into the wall, Ling Lan, who had long been prepared, controlled the mecha's two strong legs to kick viciously at the wall. A loud 'bang' was heard, and the entire room suddenly shook violently, almost sending the spectating Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng's mecha flying.
Meanwhile, following this kick, the intermediate mecha borrowed the powerful rebounding force to launch itself towards the imperial mecha standing in the middle of the arena like a flash of lightning...
Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng reacted extremely quickly, quickly stabilizing their mecha. When they had done all this and then focused their eyes on the arena, they saw the intermediate mecha darting back and forth in the hidden room like lightning.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Bang! The sounds of the mecha clashing rang out like a violent storm in the entire secret combat room. Of the two mecha, one was as fast as lightning, its movements almost impossible to see clearly, while the other stood erect in the middle of the ring, as steady as Mount Tai, responding to every move, as immovable as a mountain.
"This is the Stomping Technique, countless Stomping Techniques..." Zhao Jun stared intently for several tens of seconds before feeling his eyes turn somewhat dry. There was even a hint of piercing pain. He could not help but reach out to rub his eyes. It turned out that the speed and movements of an intermediate mecha had already exceeded Zhao Jun's dynamic vision. Even he, who had been staring intently at the screen all this while, could not stand it any longer.
"Yes, it's the Stomping Technique …" However, this was not a simple stomping technique, or else that imperial mecha would not have quietly changed its standing posture. Faced with Zhao Jun's carelessness, the observant Li Lanfeng still managed to see it. The imperial mecha, which had initially been standing with its legs crossed, had now spread its legs apart, and its knees were slightly bent. This was a special posture for a mecha to stabilise its lower body. It could be seen that the Stomping Technique of an intermediate mecha was extremely impactful to an imperial operator, forcing the other to use the most stable posture to defend himself.
And in Li Lanfeng's memories, only the rabbit mecha could use this kind of powerful stomping technique so skillfully. Could it be that the rabbit he had been searching for for seven years was this intermediate mecha warrior before him? But with the rabbit mecha's strength, it was impossible for it to remain at intermediate mecha. One of Li Lanfeng's questions seemed to have been answered, but because of this, even more questions were born...
Just as Zhao Jun was rubbing his eyes furiously and Li Lanfeng was filled with questions, the intermediate mecha, which had been moving at high speed all this while, suddenly collided violently with the imperial mecha once more, and then landed in a corner of the arena. Due to the sudden stop at high speed, the mecha slid forward about 5 metres before regaining its footing.
Perhaps it was because the intermediate mecha was extremely used to this kind of high-speed stop, for even though the intermediate mecha slid 5 metres forward, its upper body did not sway at all. From this, it could be seen that these sliding figures were all within the intermediate mecha's calculations.
Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun looked at each other, unsure why the intermediate mecha had suddenly stopped its attack when it was in such a good situation. Li Lanfeng's mind stirred. He remembered that the rabbit mecha had once said that this kind of high-speed stomping technique was extremely taxing on the mecha. Trainee mecha would not be able to hold out for long, so could it be that an intermediate mecha could not do the same?
"Looks like you've already understood," seeing this, Ling Xiao withdrew from his defensive posture and said to Ling Lan with a smile.
"Yes, thank you, Father, for your guidance." Ling Lan replied gratefully. That set of movements she had just executed was so familiar that it had already seeped into her bones. Controlling it had not been strenuous at all, even extremely casual.
However, whether it was in terms of speed or attack power, it was not inferior to those advanced techniques she had used, perhaps even a notch higher. This was because she still had energy to spare in her control, unlike earlier where she had used all her strength but had also caused her mecha to operate at a high level, damaging the mecha's lifespan.
This also made Ling Lan deeply understand the meaning of Ling Xiao's words. Having understood, she stopped her attack, because she had obtained what she wanted from this instructional battle. She had completed her mission — continuing the battle would be a waste of time.
Ling Lan's words made Ling Xiao's smile grow even wider. Ling Xiao knew very well that Ling Lan had truly understood. This once again proved that his daughter's comprehension abilities were definitely above average.
"Your stomp technique should have incorporated some special skills. How did you think of this?" Ling Xiao was extremely curious. It should be known that those who had just started learning mecha control would only learn the controls in a very rigid manner; they would not even consider integrating these controls. For Ling Lan to be able to do this was undoubtedly a great surprise to Ling Xiao, because even he himself had not been able to do it back then.
"By coincidence, when I had just started learning mecha control, I met someone who had also just started learning mecha control. The other was a control prodigy, able to execute every move to perfection. His results were very good, and at first, I could not match up to him at all. This made me very indignant — if he could do it, why couldn't I? So, I racked my brains on how to increase the speed of my mecha, to perfectly switch between the various movements. Inadvertently, I used the leg techniques of physical skills on my mecha, and found that it actually produced a certain effect. So, I started researching it... "Ling Lan hid part of the truth, telling her father about her encounter with the leopard mecha back then...
As Ling Lan recounted her story, she also felt that the leopard mecha was definitely the main contributor to her being able to perform so well in the basic assessment. The other's company had undoubtedly made this period of dull training much more interesting. Thinking back, of all the basic controls Ling Lan had mastered so far, only this section of the basic assessment was the one that Ling Lan had practiced the best and was most comfortable with. This was also why when Ling Xiao had asked Ling Lan to use the basic controls, she had chosen this without a second thought. Reality proved that this was the basic controls that had been ingrained into her bones, becoming an instinct that she had truly mastered.
After understanding all this, Ling Xiao prepared to log off. Although he did not really care about the assessment results of the military academy, as the leader of the assessment team, he had to show his face every day before the end of the assessment to check on the results. Otherwise, the higher-ups of the academy would misunderstand that the 23rd Division did not value the First Men's Military Academy at all... in order to smoothly transfer his daughter to the 23rd Division in the future, he had to maintain a good relationship with the military academy no matter what.
After saying goodbye to his daughter, Ling Xiao immediately logged off from the hidden room. When he logged on again, his mecha would automatically appear in the great hall of the mecha combat hall. If Ling Lan needed guidance again, he would not have to waste any more time finding his way...
Li Lanfeng saw the imperial mecha disappear and knew that they were about to leave. Excited, he immediately stepped forward and connected to the external communicator, saying, "Hello, could you please wait for a moment?"
Ling Lan was just about to log off when she heard this. She paused and raised her head to look at the advanced mecha who had spoken.
Seeing the intermediate mecha watching him silently, Li Lanfeng hesitated for a moment, but still asked resolutely, because he did not want to miss another chance. "May I ask, seven years ago, did you go to planet Azure's capital city in the virtual world?"
"Planet Azure? Capital city? " Ling Lan's face was filled with confusion. Seven years ago, she had indeed asked Little Four to secretly bring her to the virtual world, but at that time, she had asked Little Four to bring her to planet Doha's capital city.
"Ah, Boss... I forgot to tell you. Back then, when you asked me to go to Capital city, I accidentally chose planet Azure..." Little Four, who had been drawn over by the advanced mecha operator's words, told Ling Lan about his mistake back then.
Ling Lan instantly became alert at this. "How did he know that I went to planet Azure seven years ago? Could it be that I gave myself away somewhere? "
Little Four also became nervous at this. That's right, he and Boss had secretly gone up at that time. How could they have been discovered? Little Four quickly sensed the other's spiritual power...
"Hm?" Li Lanfeng frowned slightly. He felt that there was something strange about his surroundings, but he could not put his finger on it. Cautiously, he used his spectre power to envelop his own spiritual power. Whether or not he was being paranoid, Li Lanfeng's first instinct was to protect himself.
"Ah... what a familiar energy!" Little Four exclaimed in surprise when he sensed Li Lanfeng's spectre power. He swiftly scurried back into Ling Lan's mindspace and quickly flipped through the energy information in his memory bank. Comparing it to the energy source earlier, he very quickly dug out the long-hidden leopard mecha. This was the spectre they had met back then.
"Boss, we found someone we know," replied Little Four excitedly. As Ling Lan had forbidden him from actively probing the other's spiritual power, Little Four had not noticed anything even though Li Lanfeng had been standing there for a long time. Of course, this was also because Little Four had been focused on assisting Ling Lan in operating her mecha at the time and had not had the time to be distracted.
"Who?" asked Ling Lan curiously, raising an eyebrow.
"It's that leopard mecha. That spectre who was watching the mecha fights with us," replied Little Four excitedly.
"It's him..." Ling Lan was stunned. She had just been talking about him to her father. Who would have thought that he would appear just like that? It looked like she was really fated to meet this leopard.
