"So what if I'm not used to it? The Wasteland Reclamation is not to search for life forms, but for minerals and resources, "Han Jijun replied coldly when he heard Zilong's question. He thought that Zilong's question was too stupid.
"Notice, the starship will enter the atmosphere in 10 seconds. Please take all anti-shock measures, please take all anti-shock measures..." In the public channel of the mecha, the voice of the starship's public JMC rang out.
The 10 second countdown ended, and all the mecha operators in the transport cabins felt the intense shaking. This continued for over 10 seconds, and then the starship settled into a steady state. At this time, all the mecha operators knew that they should have already passed through X192's atmosphere and truly entered the planet's interior.
Sure enough, in the public channel, the JMC's voice sounded again. This time, it was to inform them that in one minute and thirty seconds, the starship would officially land on the ground of planet X192.
One minute and thirty seconds was not considered very short — it was enough time for the mecha operators to make all the necessary preparations for collision. Even so, when the countdown reached zero and the starship landed heavily on the planet's surface, the intense tremors still caused quite a few mecha operators to feel their blood surge. In fact, quite a few mecha operators were unable to recover even after a long while.
The six members of Ling Lan's team, including Ling Lan, did not react at all. Under Ling Lan's training, even Han Jijun, who had the weakest physique, could easily withstand this kind of impact. Ling Lan, who knew everything about her companions, directly asked [No Mecha Unrepaired], [Priceless Kinship], and [Self-Defined Destiny].
Without any hesitation, Priceless Kinship replied that he had no questions at all. Ling Lan immediately understood. Li Shiyu's body could not possibly be that weak... he was the dux of the military medical research specialization! With his intelligence, he would definitely not allow his body to be too weak.
[No Mecha Unrepaired] was the second to respond. Just as Ling Lan had predicted, he felt a little discomfort, but after swallowing a strong recovery agent, he felt much better.
In the end, the one who replied was [Self-Defined Destiny]. Even though he said that everything was fine, what kind of ears did Ling Lan have? She could clearly sense that the other party was a little lacking in energy. The violent collision just now was definitely not what [Self-Defined Destiny] had said — he was completely fine.
This made Ling Lan frown slightly. [No Mecha Unrepaired]'s physique was a little weaker, but she had mentally prepared herself for this. After all, [No Mecha Unrepaired] was a logistician, so his physique was fundamentally different from professional mecha operators like them. Thus, [No Mecha Unrepaired]'s condition was very normal. But [Self-Defined Destiny] was not quite right, because [Self-Defined Destiny] was a professional mecha operator. This was what the other had told her himself, and she believed that the leopard would not lie to her, because his control ability was enough for him to become a professional mecha operator.
But she could never have imagined that the leopard, who should have had an extremely good physique in her impression, would actually have a similar physique as [No Mecha Unrepaired]. This meant that the other's physical strength and endurance would not be able to fight for long periods of time...
This forced Ling Lan to consider calmly — could her old friend the leopard really become a permanent member of the team? Although Ling Lan and the leopard got along very well, and she greatly treasured this sense of camaraderie, this did not mean that she would let the other drag down the entire team. She needed to consider the future of these companions of hers who had grown up with her.
It had to be said that in Ling Lan's heart, the leopard's importance was not even close to that of her companions. For the sake of her companions, she could abandon her leopard.
Sensing his boss's thoughts, Little Four quickly opened his mouth to explain, "Boss, because the spiritual power of spectres is too strong, the damage to the body is very great, just like in Boss's previous life. Of course, the current technology has greatly improved this problem because of the gene stimulating agent, but it still has no way of completely curing the problem of weak physique. "
Little Four still had a good impression of this spectres who had similar abilities to his own. At the very least, the other gave him a sense of kinship, so he decided to put in a few good words for [Self-Defined Destiny]. "Actually, spectres cannot operate mecha. For [Self-Defined Destiny] to be able to do this is already very outstanding. Besides, having a spectres is also very beneficial to the team. Spectres are very sensitive to spectre power, and can protect the rest of the team at critical moments."
"Can't you protect everyone too?" Although Little Four's words moved Ling Lan somewhat, the problem of the leopard's physique still made her very conflicted.
"Of course I can, but Boss, there will always be times when you have to move alone or in groups. At that time, with an additional spectres, no matter how you arrange things, the safety of all the members of the team will be even higher," replied Little Four calmly. He did not believe that his boss did not care about the safety of her team members.
Sure enough, when Ling Lan heard Little Four's words, she hesitated.
"Actually, the other's weak physique is not something that cannot be changed." Little Four was prepared to bring out his trump card.
"Oh?" Ling Lan was very interested. If this could really solve the leopard's physique problem, she naturally did not want to abandon the leopard. After all, it was rare to have such a good friend. Zilong and the others had been raised by Ling Lan as her underlings, but the leopard was the first one who had made her feel like a friend, so Ling Lan also cherished him very much.
"Boss, have you forgotten how your body recovered? As long as there is the gene stimulating agent, after my modifications, the other will be able to absorb it without limit. With Boss's Chi Fostering Art and the basic physical skills of the learning space, this problem can be solved in two to three years. "Little Four reminded Ling Lan — the other would be able to solve the problem the same way she had solved the problem.
"I have to think about it." Ling Lan glanced at [Self-Defined Destiny], and then cut the topic short. This was because all the mecha had already begun to leave their seats and were walking out of the cockpit door in formation. There was another reason Ling Lan did not want to make a decision. That was, she wanted to see if the leopard could gain the approval of her companions. If her companions truly accepted him, she was willing to help her leopard solve this problem.
Everything would depend on the leopard's future performance! Ling Lan sighed softly in her heart, and then led her team members out of the cockpit door.
At this time, Li Lanfeng still did not know that he had almost been struck out by his rabbit. After downing a recovery agent at the first opportunity, his body recovered very quickly. He followed closely behind the rest of the team, feeling rather vexed. He had not expected the physiques of the rabbit's team members to be so strong. Out of all of them, he was actually the weakest... he clenched his fists silently, making up his mind to increase the amount of basic training every night by three times. He definitely would not embarrass his rabbit.
The moment they stepped out of the transport hold of the starship, they felt a wave of heat wash over them. Even though the temperature in the cockpit had been lowered, they could still feel the difference in temperature between this planet and that of a planet inhabited by humans. On the screens of all the mecha in Ling Lan's team, an endless desert appeared. It was a field of white, without any other colour. After just looking at it for a few seconds, they could already feel their eyes begin to sting.
"Adjust the temperature of the cockpit. Lower it by 10 degrees. Adjust the screen to a linear infrared mode." Just as everyone was still in a daze, Ling Lan's voice rang out in the team commlink channel.
Zilong and the others, who were used to obeying Ling Lan's orders, immediately made the adjustments. When they adjusted the temperature from the original 25 degrees to 15 degrees, the scorching heat that had invaded the cockpit was completely expelled, and the cockpit once again returned to its initial level of comfort. Meanwhile, when the screen was changed to a linear infrared mode, their eyes began to feel more comfortable, no longer feeling the blinding white and piercing pain.
Li Lanfeng had great trust in his rabbit, so he did not feel anything about the other's accurate judgement. Meanwhile, Li Shiyu and [No Mecha Unrepaired] could not help but feel their hearts tremble. Their team leader knew every aspect of mecha related knowledge like the back of his hand, or else he would not have been able to make such an accurate judgement in an instant. [No Mecha Unrepaired] was even more impressed with Ling Lan now, and Li Shiyu was gradually beginning to acknowledge this Boss Lan whom he had never had a good impression of, who liked to twist right from wrong.
When they actually walked out, they were stunned by the scene before them. It turned out that those mecha who had gone before them were currently struggling against the sand here. Many mecha had sunk into the sand, and there were even more mecha who had no choice but to power their engines to fly up into the air to continue moving forward.
"Warning, do not use your engines for long periods of time. The temperature and air elements here are extremely harmful to your engines." In the public channel, the JMC's anxious warning rang out once more.
Before he had finished speaking, a loud boom could be heard in the skies far away. One of the mecha's engines had suddenly exploded. The strength of the explosion sent the mecha crashing to the ground. The entire mecha smashed into the sand, its massive body completely buried. If the other did not have any team members to help him, he would not have been able to resolve this predicament on his own. What awaited him was only death.
"F * ck, what a dangerous planet." Seeing this scene, Xie Yi could not help but sigh emotionally in the team comms channel. However, he was just sighing; he would not back down because of this.
"Let's go." Ling Lan had barely finished speaking when she operated her mecha to step into this desert. Just then, [Self-Defined Destiny] suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute."
"Hm?" Ling Lan operated her mecha to tilt her head slightly, indicating for [Self-Defined Destiny] to explain. Why was he calling out to her?
"I think that we should send someone down to get a feel of the place first," said Li Lanfeng with a smile. "I'm volunteering. I hope that everyone will give me, a newcomer, a chance to perform." Li Lanfeng's words instantly dissipated the somewhat tense and silent atmosphere in the team. Zilong even burst out laughing, and there were some almost inaudible chuckles as well. No one knew who was laughing secretly.
The corners of Ling Lan's lips quirked up slightly, extremely approving of the leopard's performance. Thus, she said, "Alright, go ahead." Ling Lan hoped that the leopard would be accepted by her companions, so she naturally expressed her support for the leopard's request without hesitation.
