Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Several seconds after that imperial mecha abruptly left the dormitory district, it arrived several kilometres away from the district to intercept the Thunder King's group.
Seeing the sudden appearance of this imperial mecha enemy, even the confident Thunder King Qiao Ting lost his composure in that instant. His first reaction was to lead his team members and run for their lives.
"What a bunch of cowards!" The imperial operator said contemptuously. He raised his head to look into the distance — on the route this group had chosen to escape, there was an eight-man mecha team hurrying towards them...
"Perhaps, I can play a fun game now." A strange smile appeared on the imperial operator's lips — this was his favourite game.
Having decided, the imperial operator did not choose to finish off the Thunder King's group immediately. Instead, he trailed behind them like an unshakable shadow, slowly tailing them. At the same time, he chose to set up a radar screen around this area so that the two teams of mecha below would not be able to use their radars to detect the other's presence...
"Eh?" The imperial operator suddenly exclaimed in surprise. He had noticed that the eight mecha that should have been rushing towards them had suddenly stopped. Could it be that they had discovered something? The imperial operator immediately rejected this possibility, because unless it was a god-class mecha, no other mecha would be able to decipher the shielding function of an imperial mecha.
"How troublesome!" The other's subsequent actions caused the imperial mecha to be extremely puzzled and frustrated. He could not help but curse internally, and then with a flash, he disappeared from the air, vanishing without a trace.
The Thunder King's group, who had been running for their lives and on the brink of despair, suddenly found that the imperial mecha following them had disappeared. All the other mecha fell to their knees uncontrollably, and the only one still standing was the Thunder King...
"He let us go?" asked Qiao Ting in disbelief. Had that butcher's knife hanging over their heads really disappeared? The Thunder King was very doubtful whether he was dreaming.
"That person is no longer here. He must have let us go," said one of the team members, panting. He was very thankful that he had managed to keep his life. When they had been running earlier, he had seen the imperial mecha following them, and he had thought that they were all done for.
"Boss, let's leave this place while that person has left." The other team member was still extremely fearful. Even though he had used up most of his stamina while running for his life earlier, he still felt that this place was not safe and that it was better to leave as soon as possible.
"Then where should we go? We have no idea where the other has gone. What if we choose the direction that person wants to go? Wouldn't we be seeking death? " The other team member Qiao Ting glanced at his side of the Thunder King's group and Qiao Ting Translator Nomyummi Editor: DarkGem. there was not a single mecha mecha within a 10 kilometre radius.. seemed to be very safe, but the more it was so, the more Qiao Ting's group's group was a difficult choice was difficult.
"Let's go back to the dormitory area. There are federal troops there, as well as Instructor Tang Yu." Some people suggested that they return to their original place. In their hearts, Instructor Tang Yu was powerful and might be able to protect them. Moreover, there was strength in numbers and safety.
I... I I Qiao!!'S's's Qiu!!!!!!! Qiu That's Tian's That's is That's Big's had That's Qiu That is Qiu That's That's That's Qiu's That imperial. If we really go there, even if Instructor Tang Yu is here, he won't be able to hold us back, "said Qiao Ting with a wry smile. Even if Instructor Tang Yu was the king of aces, he would still be unable to withstand a single blow from an imperial operator.
Of course, Qiao Ting did not want to go back. Although it was as he had said, there was another reason. He had forcefully led the 12 of them away because he wanted to make a name for himself. If he just ran back with his tail between his legs, Qiao Ting felt that it would be too shameful for him. He did not want to be seen as a joke by those three disloyal team members left behind.
"Right, the regiment commander is right." The team member who was most supportive of Qiao Ting once again jumped out to support Qiao Ting's opinion.
"Let's continue in this direction. If the imperial operator wants to go in this direction, I can't think of a reason why he would disappear on his own. Wouldn't it be better for him to just follow behind us?" Qiao Ting gritted his teeth and finally chose to continue forward.
Qiao Ting's words were undoubtedly reasonable. Furthermore, he was the regiment commander — even if some team members had objections, they could only follow the group as the majority agreed...
Meanwhile, on Ling Lan's side, she had been moving at high speed towards the dormitory district when she suddenly stopped her mecha. The moment Ling Lan stopped, all the team members tacitly stopped moving without needing her to give any instructions. They silently spread out around Ling Lan. Working together, they knew what to do. They believed that their team leader would not stop for no reason — she must have discovered something.
What made Ling Lan stop moving was that Little Four had suddenly shouted in her mindspace to warn her that there was an enemy ahead, and this enemy was actually an imperial mecha!
This news shocked Ling Lan. She immediately chose to stop her mecha from moving, and then asked Little Four what was going on.
Little Four was equally vexed. Clutching his head in disbelief, he said, "I don't understand either. Isn't there a universal declaration in this world that mecha above ace level are not allowed to appear on the battlefield?"
"Boss, let's change direction and run. It's very likely that the enemy has already discovered our tracks..." Little Four had a shielding function, but he was not confident that he could do it flawlessly in the presence of an imperial mecha. He immediately suggested for his boss to temporarily avoid the enemy.
"Okay!" Ling Lan said decisively. She signaled for the team members to follow her, and they turned 90 degrees to the left to swiftly escape upwards...
Going back the way they had come would lead to encountering an unknown enemy. Ling Lan naturally did not want to take the risk, and turning right down would indirectly shorten the distance between them and the imperial mecha. Ling Lan did not dare to take the risk. Only by turning left up would they be able to increase the distance between them and the imperial mecha as much as possible.
However, Ling Lan's group had only been sprinting for less than 10 seconds when Little Four cried out, "He's discovered us! He's actually abandoned his original prey and is coming after us... estimated time of arrival: 10 seconds!" Little Four's last words were spoken with a sobbing tone, because he really could not think of any way they could escape the clutches of an imperial operator.
Hearing this, Ling Lan gritted her teeth and once again halted her sprinting. She abruptly turned around and shouted, "Prepare for battle!"
At Ling Lan's shout, the well-coordinated team of Ling Lan stopped in unison to follow Ling Lan and turn to face the enemy. At the same time, they drew the weapons slung across their backs into their hands.
They had just finished doing all this when they saw a large mecha suddenly appear out of thin air in the night sky above them. The magnificent and elegant body of the mecha made everyone's expressions change. Familiar with the various levels of mecha, they naturally recognised that this was an imperial mecha.
At the same time, they also understood why Boss Lan had asked them to prepare for battle. In front of an imperial operator, there was no way they could escape. Since that was the case, they might as well choose to fight. Even if they died, at least they would die with some dignity.
"Interesting. To actually be able to choose death so calmly..." Seeing the completely different choice from the previous group, the imperial mecha grew excited. The more resolute and unyielding they appeared, the more he wanted to humiliate them. He wanted to see what these people would choose when faced with the impasse of death. Would they die bravely, or would they drag out an ignoble existence?
"I'll give you all a chance to live. That is, go back to that route you took earlier. You will encounter a group of people. That group has 13 mecha. As long as you kill all of them, I will let you all go!" The imperial mecha suddenly turned on the loudspeaker and said this to Ling Lan's team.
Ling Lan's gaze narrowed. "If I'm not wrong, that group of people should be on our side. You want to see us kill each other?"
The other's applause suddenly rang out from the loudspeaker, and soon the imperial operator's sinister voice rang out. "You're very smart. Indeed, I really want to see you all kill each other, but this is precisely the only chance for you and the other party to survive. If you choose to refuse, both of your teams will end up dead, just that you will die by my hands."
"Of course, you can also choose to sacrifice yourself and lead your team to meet them head-on, and I can also let that group of people go." The imperial operator smiled as he suggested this. It was as if he was Satan, sowing the seeds of temptation, making it impossible for you to refuse.
Ling Lan fell silent. She suddenly did not know how to choose — the other had given her an irresistible reason. Just as Ling Lan was hesitating, a trace of pleasant surprise suddenly appeared on Little Four's despairing face. He shouted, "Boss, daddy's here!"
"I promise you!" Ling Lan's heart leapt with joy, and she replied decisively. Ling Lan did not want to kill the other party to gain a chance at survival, nor did she want to lead her team to their deaths. She only wanted to stall for time as much as possible. Since she knew that her savior had arrived, it would be too much of a waste if she accidentally died here.
As Ling Lan replied, she did not forget to order Little Four in her mindspace, "Little Four, hurry up and think of a way to send a message to daddy. Tell him to come and save us!"
"The other party is currently rushing in this direction. I'll give you all 10 seconds. If you all still haven't met them in 10 seconds, I will completely destroy you all. Because you all are trash, not worthy of playing this game." The imperial operator did not give Ling Lan too much time as she had hoped. He gave Ling Lan and the others another set of rules, forcing Ling Lan and the others to put their lives on the line.
"I'll start counting... 1..." The imperial operator did not give Ling Lan and the others any time to prepare, beginning to count as soon as he finished speaking. When Ling Lan heard the count of 1, she was the first to operate her mecha to rush back in the direction they had come from.
No matter what the situation would be after 10 seconds, she needed to make the best use of these 10 seconds. She could only hope that Little Four would be able to contact her daddy as soon as possible...
Seeing their boss pouncing out like a fierce tiger, Ling Lan's team members reacted extremely quickly. They all operated their own mecha to follow after their boss...
"What a bunch of obedient children! Now we're going to have some fun!" Seeing this, the imperial operator licked his lips excitedly and smiled maliciously. The next second, that magnificent and elegant imperial mecha once again disappeared into the air, vanishing without a trace.
