Translator: H2dH2mr Editor: H2dH2mr Little Four's forehead hurt from the flick, and his heart was filled with lingering fear. With tears in his eyes, he said, "Boss, just now, I almost couldn't see you again."
Little Four's words stunned Ling Lan. She waited for Little Four's explanation, but Little Four only hugged her thigh and did not say anything else.
Sensing the panic in Little Four's heart, Ling Lan gently stroked his hair and said, "Little Four, you must remember, if one day you suddenly disappear, I will definitely find you. I will!"
Ling Lan's firm tone soothed Little Four's frightened heart. Little Four's emotions slowly calmed down, and he nodded, replying softly, "Yes, I believe you, Boss!"
Rubbing Little Four's head again, Ling Lan felt that Little Four's emotions had returned to normal. She immediately pushed Little Four away and left the mindspace in a flash. She was glad that all this had only happened in the mindspace — no matter how much had happened inside, only one or two minutes had passed outside.
Little Four looked at the empty mindspace and was instantly hurt. Sob sob sob, this little brother of his must have been brought here by his stepmother. Otherwise, how could Boss abandon him so heartlessly?
The moment Ling Lan returned outside, she immediately told everyone what she had discovered. "Logically speaking, the Yang sea region, which is always sunny, rarely has a chance to rain, so its humidity should be much lower than the Yin sea region. However, the result is just the opposite — the humidity here is even higher than the place where we first fell … "
Those who could participate in the Mecha Grand Tournament were not easy to deal with — they were all smart people. They knew that where the rain fell, the humidity would definitely be higher than where the sun shone. Qiao Ting nodded and replied, "On this point, it really doesn't make sense."
"Could it be that before we fell, there was a rainstorm here?" Someone suggested a highly probable scenario.
Everyone looked at Ling Lan in unison, waiting for Ling Lan's answer.
"Of course, this is also possible. In order to confirm it, I decided to wait for another half an hour." "Based on the intensity of the sun right now, half an hour later, it should be able to reduce the humidity in this area. If that's the case, it's just as that team member said earlier. It's very likely that before we arrive, there will be a rainstorm here, and the humidity in the air will not have completely dissipated. However, if the humidity remains the same and does not decrease, then this sea area … "
"This sea region might be a trap," Qiao Ting understood what Ling Lan was implying and immediately said, "I agree to wait!"
"I agree too!"
"Agreed!"
…
All the captains agreed to wait for half an hour. According to the map, if everything went smoothly from the Yang Sea Region to their headquarters, it would only take about one and a half hours. Therefore, they could afford to waste half an hour.
Just like that, all the members of the First Men's Military Academy waited silently. Very soon, half an hour had passed. Quite a few people had been monitoring the humidity and found that during this time, not only had the humidity in the air not decreased, it had instead slowly increased.
Qiao Ting had also noticed this. He raised his head to look at the scorching sun that had almost reached the top of their heads and said with a serious expression, "What is going on? Why is this happening? "
Ling Lan did not answer, instead asking, "Captain Qiao, have you heard of mirages before?"
Ling Lan's words shocked everyone. Mirages, or simply mirages, were a natural phenomenon caused by the refraction and total reflection of light. It was an illusion formed by the light reflected off objects on ancient Earth and refracted by the atmosphere.
Ever since ancient Earth had been stripped of all its resources and became a barren planet, they could only learn about this mysterious existence from books. Having never seen it with their own eyes, they had forgotten about this matter, and it was even more impossible for them to think about it from this angle. Mirages were really too far away from them.
"You're saying that this Yang Sea Region that we see is very likely fake, just a mirage?" Qiao Ting's face was full of shock. Something that had already disappeared from ancient times had actually reappeared on this unknown planet? Was this real or fake?
"Yes, the only explanation that makes sense is this." Ling Lan had been an Earthling from the 21st century in her previous life. Because of her body, she could only stay in the hospital and could not go out. However, as someone who liked to surf the internet to learn about everything on Earth, she had always been drooling over this mirage, wishing she could see it with her own eyes. Therefore, when Ling Lan discovered that the actual data here did not match the phenomenon she saw, Ling Lan's first thought was that it was a mirage.
"Then where is the real Yang Sea Region?" Someone asked this question in confusion.
Ling Lan turned around and looked behind her. Right now, she could still see that there was a cloud of smoke. She pointed there and said, "I'm guessing that this mirage might be a mirage created by the reflection of a mirror. Its real body might be on the other side of the mirage.
Qiao Ting's eyes lit up. "You're saying that the Yin Sea Region and the Yang Sea Region that we see are both fake? They're both mirages. They're like mirrors, reflecting each other, and the area that we think is the Yin Sea Region is the real Yang Sea Region?"
"That's the result of my speculation. Whether it's true or not, we'll have to return to the original place to know. If the closer we get to the Yin Sea Region, the lower the humidity, then my guess can be confirmed," Ling Lan replied.
The team members heard the conversation between the few regiment commanders. Ling Lan's speculation made them a little confused, but it did not stop them from admiring Ling Lan in their hearts. Heavens, how vast was Regiment Commander Ling's knowledge to be able to deduce that the legendary mirage was real?
Li Lanfeng and Han Jijun were beside Ling Lan. When they heard Ling Lan's speculation, they felt both proud and ashamed. Proud that this outstanding person in front of them was the boss who would lead them forward. The more powerful and monstrous their boss was, the more honoured they felt. But they could not help but feel ashamed. It should be known that this work should have been the responsibility of their strategists, but now their boss was doing it all by himself.
The two of them felt a sense of danger. If this continued, they might not be able to keep their position as strategists. The two of them could not help but smile bitterly in their hearts. With such a monstrous leader who did not lack in both mental and physical strength, they, who were in charge of brains, really had a lot of pressure on them.
Ling Lan's speculation received everyone's approval. When Ling Lan ordered everyone to hurry back to the original place, not only did no one object, many team members even joked that they wanted to go back and personally experience the accuracy of this speculation.
In reality, Ling Lan's speculation was spot on. The closer they got to the Yin Sea Region, the lower the humidity. Ling Lan became even more certain of her own speculation. Without hesitation, she ordered all her team members to follow closely behind the team members in front of them. They took the lead and plunged into the white haze that was so thick that they could not see their fingers in front of them.
In the haze, visibility plummeted. Out of fear of danger in the haze, Ling Lan and the others did not fly quickly. Every mecha operator kept a close eye on the team members in front of them, not daring to be distracted. They were afraid that if they were careless, they would lose sight of the other's figure. In the haze, losing the figure of a teammate was the scariest.
After flying for about two to three minutes, Ling Lan suddenly found that the haze she could see clearly had suddenly disappeared. After leaving the haze, she saw that she was in the middle of a bright sun. The strong sunlight shone on the mecha. Even Ling Lan, who was in the cockpit, could feel the warmth.
"Wow, this is the real Yang Sea Region!" The team members who had followed behind her all cried out excitedly when they saw the sunny sea region in front of them.
At this time, Qiao Ting had also led his team out of the haze. He had been monitoring the humidity. When he entered this region, the humidity had once again reached a new low. Just as Ling Lan had predicted, this was the real Yang Sea Region.
"We've found the right direction … those military academy members who flew into the mirage in front of us … wouldn't that be a complete tragedy?" Han Yu, who had been doubtful all this time, now agreed with Ling Lan's judgment. He thought of those military academy students who had rushed into the fake Yang Sea Region and instantly rejoiced in their misfortune.
"I hope they can come to their senses in time. Otherwise, if they disembark at the Yin Sea Region and want to circle back, they definitely won't be able to complete it in less than 12 hours." Mu Shaoyu looked at the map in his hands and could not help but sigh.
The disembarkation point at the Yin Sea Region and the battle royale were on the opposite side of the map. At this distance, even ace mecha operators would not be able to make it back in 6 hours.
When Ling Lan saw the sea region on this side, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She secretly praised herself for her accurate prediction. Even though she appeared to have a card up her sleeve, in reality, before she saw the results, she was still a little nervous.
"Everyone gather. The battle teams will tally up their members. If everyone is here, we will advance at full speed." Ling Lan quickly gave a new order. All the battle teams tallied up their members and then reported to Ling Lan. In the end, they confirmed that no one was left behind.
With no more worries, Ling Lan led all her team members forward at full speed. After flying for more than an hour, they finally saw the coastline of the Yang Sea Region. That continuous chain of mountains made them both excited and excited, because their headquarters, Area G17, was located on one of the mountains not too far away.
Qiao Ting and the others saw this range of mountains and instantly let out a sigh of relief. This kind of long-distance flight and the endless sea region made them feel even more tired. Now that they could see land, their spirits were lifted and their fatigue seemed to lessen.
Ling Lan and the others should be the first group to approach this place. They flew past the mountains and did not find any other military academy students. Very quickly, they found Area G17 that belonged to them and placed the transmitter that represented their headquarters in a corner of Area G17.
At this moment, thousands of kilometers away from them, in the main simulation room of the Mecha Tournament, on the huge screen that was five meters tall and seven meters long, the area G17, which was originally a grey map, was lit up.
