Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Ling Lan resolved the concerns in her heart and decided to go all out. She sent a collective message to the team members, telling them that she would be moving alone and letting Zilong lead the team into battle. She also specifically pointed out to Zilong that if they ran into any problems they could not solve, they could look for Li Lanfeng and Han Jijun to discuss a solution.
Originally, the partnership between Zilong and Han Jijun had been deliberately groomed by Ling Lan. However, when Ling Lan had sent the message to Zilong, she had actually thought of Li Lanfeng. After this period of interaction, Ling Lan had come to understand that Li Lanfeng's abilities had strengths that Han Jijun did not have. If Han Jijun was said to be a wise man on the right path, then Li Lanfeng would be a schemer on the crooked path. Li Lanfeng would often think of ways that Han Jijun would never think of. And on the battlefield, Li Lanfeng would undoubtedly have an easier time keeping the team alive.
At this thought, Ling Lan decisively added Li Lanfeng's name to the team. Ling Lan believed that with Li Lanfeng and Han Jijun assisting Zilong in strategizing, the team members would have no problem surviving this battle.
Li Lanfeng only used 2 to 3 minutes to familiarize himself with the advanced mecha he was operating. Because he had already logged into a real mecha a year ago, he did not have the trouble of transferring the controls from Mecha World to the real world like the New Cadet Regiment.
Similarly, it was the same for Li Shiyu. The difference between the experienced and the inexperienced was now completely apparent. However, it was precisely because of the two of them that Zilong and the others were able to quickly find answers to any areas they were unsure about with their mecha controls. This reduced the amount of time they had to fumble around, allowing them to master the mecha they were operating faster than the others.
The team members received Ling Lan's message almost at the same time. Seeing that Ling Lan was going to move alone, Zilong and the others were actually mentally prepared. Still, they could not help but feel a little disappointed. After all, with Boss around, they would feel more confident.
After that, Zilong told Li Lanfeng of Ling Lan's decision, asking him and Han Jijun to help him arrange the team's battle matters. After hearing this, Li Lanfeng was extremely touched, but at the same time, deeply disappointed.
Ling Lan's decision made Li Lanfeng feel the trust Ling Lan had in him, and he knew that his rabbit was extremely sincere and treasured him. However, he still felt a little Li Lanfeng's Ling Lan's Editor's Editor: Fron the battlefield for Lan, Ling, he was still not qualified to stand by Ling Lan's side. It was clear that Ling Lan's arrangements were largely because they were unable to follow in his footsteps.
Perhaps the rabbit's control skills had already reached special-class operator level... Li Lanfeng recalled that his good friend Zhao Jun had once told him that in a hidden room deep within the storehouse, there was a room specially used to store special-class mecha. Perhaps the rabbit had gone there. He felt some regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have been so stubborn about basic controls back then, and not advanced to special-class operator with Zhao Jun. If he had given up then and advanced to special-class operator, perhaps he would now have the chance to follow beside the rabbit and move together with him.
Strangely, every time Li Lanfeng followed beside the rabbit, he would feel very relaxed. The destiny that had initially been weighing down on him to the point of suffocating him no longer felt so pressured. In fact, he even had a feeling that there was still hope for this to change. Having shouldered his destiny alone for 20 years, there were also times when he felt powerless and wanted to rest. Thus, he especially cherished and coveted this feeling.
Li Lanfeng did not want to take even half a step away from the rabbit. He felt that if he let the rabbit leave his life once more, he would really be crushed by destiny.
"I must complete basic controls as soon as possible..." Li Lanfeng's disappointment only lasted for a moment. He very quickly remembered that the rabbit was very particular about basic controls. From the way Zilong and the others operated their mecha, it was clear that they were all very solid in this area. If he had chosen to take the shortcut back then, the rabbit would definitely not have treated him well. Li Lanfeng silently restrained his restless heart, silently warning himself to never cross the rabbit's forbidden zone... However, in order to make up for the gap between him and the rabbit, Li Lanfeng decided to double the amount of practice he had already doubled...
Just as Li Lanfeng was conflicted, the time Ling Lan had set for them to familiarize themselves with the mecha had unknowingly arrived. Wu Jiong and Li Yingjie, who had arrived a few minutes later than Zilong and the others, also made use of this last bit of time to activate their advanced mecha and properly familiarize themselves with it.
Seeing that the set time was up, Wu Jiong operated his mecha and gestured towards Zilong and Li Yingjie's mecha, indicating that they could go out now.
Zilong and Li Yingjie decisively gave him an affirmative gesture. Just like that, the three of them led over 30 advanced mecha masters out of the mecha storehouse. When the mecha operators in the intermediate mecha area saw their regiment commanders and team leaders operating their advanced mecha out, they did not need any orders from their team leaders to follow behind their team leaders, moving forward in an orderly fashion.
Perhaps it was because over 100 mecha had stepped out of the storehouse at the same time, but the ground actually began to vibrate slightly. However, the flames of war had not yet spread here, so there were no enemies around the mecha storehouse. Thus, no one noticed this batch of mecha walking out of the mecha storehouse.
The team leaders did not say much, only reminding their team members to choose the preset frequency as their team channel to communicate. Actually, when they had arrived, everyone had already discussed what to do.
Very soon, all the mecha had arrived at the spacious field outside. At Zilong's command, the various teams quickly spread out to choose their own directions.
As the only team not from the Central Scout Academy, Gao Jinyun's team was able to maintain a team structure, which showed that their strength was not weak. However, as Gao Jinyun looked at the 30 or so advanced mecha in the distance and then at the intermediate mecha he was operating, he could not help but feel a little disappointed.
Gao Jinyun had been won over by Ling Lan's daring plan and profound strength during the mission to seize the ship. After entering the military academy, he had followed Ling Lan unswervingly into the New Cadet Regiment. Of course, this did not exclude the fact that he was leaning against a big tree for shade. However, following the results of the gamble with Leiting, Gao Jinyun had completely discarded those thoughts and decided to follow Ling Lan wholeheartedly.
Gao Jinyun was proud. He was also from Doha, and although he had not entered the Central Scout Academy, he was still one of the strongest students in his own academy. He had thought that even if he could not compare to the regiment commanders of the New Cadet Regiment, he should not be too far off from the other team leaders. But today, he had been dealt a blow once again. He had not expected those team leaders who had come from the same Scout Academy as Ling Lan to be so strong, able to operate advanced mecha in such a short time. (Gao Jinyun had not expected the other to break through the barrier at the age of 13 and successfully enter the virtual world to learn how to operate mecha. This was definitely a beautiful misunderstanding.)
"As expected, there is always a taller mountain. I was still too confident in the past." Dealt a blow, Gao Jinyun smiled wryly inside. This also cleared his mind. Even if he was the strongest in his own academy, in the First Men's Military Academy where all the geniuses were gathered, he was still very far off...
However, Gao Jinyun would not admit defeat just like that. He decided to work hard at his mecha control and catch up to those team leaders as soon as possible. Gao Jinyun accepted losing to Boss Lan. Losing to the other regiment commanders, he could still console himself — after all, those were all regiment commanders. However, Gao Jinyun would not be able to forgive himself if he lost to those fellow team leaders. He still remembered the lofty ambition he had when he had entered the First Men's Military Academy — to become one of the most outstanding people in the military academy.
Just as Gao Jinyun was brimming with fighting spirit, he was startled awake by a voice...
"Third Elder Brother, are we really going to operate mecha and fight?" In the team, a team member was speaking with a dreamy expression.
"Godd * mmit, don't use the external loudspeaker. Use the team channel." Gao Jinyun saw his team member make a mistake and could not help but curse. Luckily, this was not a war zone, or else this team member would definitely be courting death in this state.
Because they were not a battle clan yet, they did not have an encrypted team channel exclusive to the battle clan. Their so-called team channel was simply chosen to be on the same frequency and did not have any protective encryption measures, so it was very easy for hackers to decipher. However, this was an emergency situation, so they could only make do with it.
Amidst that team member's panicked cries, they finally switched the voice channel to the team channel. Only then did Gao Jinyun breathe a sigh of relief, but he soon frowned.
The team member's immature behaviour made him somewhat worried. At this time, he was somewhat regretful that in order to ensure the formation of the team, he had not removed a team member who was not familiar with operating mecha. It should be known that Ling Lan's initial requirement was that only team members who could operate mecha proficiently at intermediate level and above would be qualified to follow her onto the battlefield to engage in mecha combat.
"Little Jiang, you're not familiar with operating mecha yet. Once you start fighting, protect yourself first, and use long-range attacks when appropriate." After some thought, Gao Jinyun made this arrangement. Since he had led the other here, he had to be responsible for him.
"Yes, Third Elder Brother." Hearing Gao Jinyun's arrangements, Little Jiang's nervous mood instantly relaxed. To be honest, he really did not have the confidence to operate mecha in close combat.
Gao Jinyun arranged the positions of each team member and then led the team members towards the battlefield. Because he knew that the strength of his team was relatively weak, Gao Jinyun did not lead the team to the dormitory area where the enemy was the most numerous and the most chaotic. Instead, he led the team in the opposite direction.
It should be said that there was nothing wrong with Gao Jinyun's choice. After all, the more chaotic a place was, the easier it was for things to go wrong. However, he had not expected that those enemy mecha who looked like they were fighting alone were often those experts who were full of confidence in themselves, which was why they dared to move alone...
"Third Elder Brother, there's an enemy mecha up ahead. Data feedback shows that it's an advanced mecha!" The team member at the front in charge of searching suddenly warned.
The moment Gao Jinyun received this news, before he could make a decision, he saw the enemy mecha which had already discovered them and was pouncing towards them viciously. Gao Jinyun knew that in terms of speed, intermediate mecha could not compare to advanced mecha. If they chose to run, they would probably be picked off one by one by the opponent. Thus, they might as well fight to the death. Perhaps with the cooperation of the team, they would be able to take down this enemy mecha.
These thoughts flashed through Gao Jinyun's mind, and he replied decisively, "Prepare for battle!"
