Little Qing didn't know what to say. Indeed, JMCs didn't have the right to reject a mecha operator's decision. Right at that moment, her class monitor picked up L6-W3's call. "Hello, Commanding Officer L6-W3. I'm the class monitor of JMC Class 1. JMC 003 made a mistake just now. Please forgive her. I'll immediately arrange the protection system for the ejection port. Please wait for a moment."
The class monitor hung up and said angrily to Little Qing, "003, did you forget the code of conduct of JMCs?"
Little Qing held back her tears and said softly, "Landing with two mechas is very dangerous. Normal mecha operators wouldn't allow them to do this." JMCs had the responsibility to give advice to mecha operators.
"That's for normal mecha operators. You're serving an ace operator now. These are two completely different concepts. You have to remember this. Also, ace operators are our commanding officers. We have to listen to our commanding officers' orders," the class monitor said helplessly. They were all low-level JMCs. The people they served were all mecha operators. Thus, when they faced an ace operator, they didn't know how to react properly.
Little Qing nodded to show that she understood. The class monitor immediately informed the logisticians at the ejection port to activate the protection system.
After receiving a reply from the logisticians that everything was ready, the class monitor called L6-W3 again and told him that everything was ready.
Knowing that an ace operator was going to land with two mechas, the mechas waiting outside all left the landing route. Right then, an ace mecha flew into the launch port with a Caesar mecha in tow. The moment the mecha landed, an ear-piercing sound of friction could be heard from the mecha's feet. There was even a high temperature smoke produced from the friction between the mecha's feet. Luckily, there was no oxygen in the ejection port so there weren't any sparks.
Since the mecha was landing with one mecha, the engine power of the landing mecha was greater than that of a single mecha. Thus, it was difficult to control the speed of the landing. This was why it was dangerous to land with two mechas.
All of the staff members at the launch port were staring intently at the screen of the launch port. When they saw the mecha break through the five layers of protective belts and finally be safely stopped by the protective net without the tragedy of crashing violently into the wall at the end of the launch port, they all began to applaud excitedly. In fact, this was the first time they had seen two planes land.
L6-W3 exerted some force on his mecha and bounced back to his seat. Then, he used the transportation system of the mecha hold to transport his mecha back to the mecha hold. After returning to the mecha hold, he put down the ace mecha from Caesar in his hands.
The staff members in the mecha cockpit who were undergoing maintenance all gathered around, looking excitedly at this mecha whose cockpit was already damaged but whose other parts were still intact. Even though their jobs rarely allowed them to come into contact with ace mecha, they still had a thorough understanding of the ace mecha of the various countries in human society back when they were still in school.
They all knew that this was an ace mecha from the Kaiser Empire, but it was a little different from what they knew of the Kaiser Empire. Some people guessed that this was a modified ace mecha. Some people thought that it was a different model of ace mecha. However, there were also some people who knew that this was a new model of ace mecha …
The mecha hold was in an uproar because of the ace mecha. After the ejection port was replaced with a new protection system, the two mechas landed again. Similarly, they landed without any mishaps. The staff on Feiyang Ship were in awe of the L6 team's ace mecha operators' superb piloting skills.
Li Yingjie was proud of himself as he descended from the ejection port amidst the cheers of the staff members of Feiyang. He looked at his captive, the ace operator from Caesar, being pushed down from the mecha hold by the armed personnel of Feiyang. It should be known that mechas from the Kaiser Empire were very difficult to capture. Usually, the enemy would press the self-destruct button when they were ejected from the mecha hold. However, he managed to capture a mecha from Caesar in his first mission … He felt that he should be called Lucky Li Yingjie!
While Li Yingjie was feeling proud, Zilong, Zhao Jun, Lin Zhong-qing, and Ling Lan landed one by one.
Ling Lan controlled her mecha to land on Feiyang from the ejection port. She accurately stopped her mecha at the stop line. She didn't use any protection system. The JMCs and staff members of Feiyang applauded her accurate control of her mecha. It should be known that Ling Lan was the last to land. The people in front of her, such as Zhao Jun, Zilong, and the others, didn't stop without any protection system like Ling Lan. They more or less used one or two protection systems. Of course, that kind of landing was already impressive enough. It should be known that their mecha operators didn't use five layers of protection systems. If they didn't fall into the net of protection, it wouldn't be considered a landing.
Ling Lan waited quietly for her mecha to be sent back to its original position by the starship's automatic operating system. Ling Lan then turned off her mecha and opened the cockpit. She stepped on the lift and came down to the ground.
At this moment, there were already many staff members beside her mecha. They were looking at her passionately. Ling Lan's heart couldn't help but beat faster. She didn't understand why these people were so passionate about her.
"Sir, do you have any orders?" A staff member mustered up his courage and went forward to ask her.
Ling Lan was stunned. Orders? What orders did she have? Ling Lan didn't know that the staff of the starship's logistics department would ask her such a question.
"Boss, according to the standards of an ace operator, there will be a mecha equipment maintenance team dedicated to you. They will be solely responsible for your mecha. Regardless of whether it is before or after a battle, they will follow your orders to install and replenish your mecha's energy weapons or carry out repairs and modifications. That's the standard that the staff member used to ask you. " Little Four immediately explained. After saying this, Little Four covered his mouth and laughed. "This person is really good at seizing opportunities. Only on this journey will he have the chance to enjoy the honor of being a member of an ace operator's team."
Ace operators were the ultimate power on the battlefield. In order to ensure that every ace operator could perform well, the Federation would provide them with sufficient logistical support to ensure that all their needs were met. Even the JMCs were specially made so that ace operators could perform well on the battlefield. This was so that ace operators could perform well on the battlefield.
However, it wasn't easy to become a member of an ace operator's team. Those who could become a member of an ace operator's team were the best of the best. It was definitely not something that a normal staff member on a normal starship like the Feiyang Ship could enter.
After hearing Little Four's explanation, Ling Lan understood. She had learned about this when she was in the military academy. However, before she entered a division and became an official mecha operator, she wouldn't be able to learn about it. (Poor Ling Lan was still in the recruit protection period. She hadn't become an official soldier yet.) This was why she neglected this point.
She didn't think that she would be able to enjoy the treatment of a mecha operator so soon. Ling Lan felt awkward in her heart. However, she still replied calmly, "Just make sure that the basic weapons and equipment have enough energy."
"Yes, sir!" The staff member's eyes lit up. This sentence was a form of recognition. She recognized that he would be a member of her team before she left the Feiyang Ship. Although this was only temporary, just like what Little Four said, this would be the pride and glory of his life.
The staff member suppressed his excitement, his heart filled with gratitude towards Ling Lan. He knew that his act of volunteering himself was very rash. If he had met an ace operator with a slightly worse temper, he would have been reprimanded immediately, and might even have been punished by a complaint.
However, he had to take the risk. He couldn't let his child be humiliated forever. He was just a mecha transporter. He didn't have any skills. He was one of the lowest level soldiers in the military. Every time he went back on vacation, he would feel guilty when he knew that his child was being looked down upon by his classmates in the Scout Academy because of his military branch.
He hoped that one day, he would be able to tell his child that even though his troop class was very low level, a low level troop class could still achieve glory that a high level troop class could not. For this, he had been working hard and looking for an opportunity, and now, his opportunity had finally arrived.
The staff member clenched his fists. When he got back from this break, he would proudly tell his child that his father was not just an ordinary mecha transporter, but was instead a member of the ace operator's exclusive working group. He was the elite of the elites. He wanted his child to hold his head high from now on, and never feel ashamed of him again!
What a pitiful parent's heart!
Ling Lan didn't know the reason behind that staff member's bold action. Ling Lan wasn't someone who liked to refuse. Since it was something that would benefit everyone, Ling Lan didn't mind. For example, the JMC's words before the battle, and the staff member's bold volunteering just now. Although they were both against the rules, Ling Lan was still understanding and accommodating. Although Ling Lan exuded a cold aura and looked very cold and heartless, in reality, she was very soft-hearted.
Ling Lan saw Li Lanfeng, Zhao Jun, and the others waiting on one side. She walked over, and on the way, she didn't forget to ask, "Little Four, have you told Dad about our gains?" Before returning to the ship, Ling Lan had instructed Little Four to use the most secretive method to tell Ling Xiao everything that had happened here and their gains. Ling Lan wasn't willing to let her hard-earned gains and contributions be taken away by someone else. At this time, she naturally had to let her dad handle it.
"Don't worry, Boss. Dad has already received it. Dad said to leave it all to him. " Little Four lifted his little chin and replied proudly, as if Ling Xiao was his father and not Ling Lan's father. His smug manner made Ling Lan's fingers itch, and she flicked a finger at him … hells, that was still her dad, alright?
As they spoke, Ling Lan met up with Zilong and the others. In this battle, they had obtained a total of two ace mecha from Caesar. One of the mecha might be Caesar's newest model of ace mecha. If that was the case, the benefits the Federation would gain from this would definitely be immeasurable. Although the other mecha was only an active ace mecha and its value couldn't be compared to the other mecha, it was still a great achievement to be able to capture an ace operator alive.
Zhao Jun, Zilong, and the others had excited expressions on their faces. These gains made them unable to remain calm.
Soon, more and more people came to the mecha hold. Even the captain couldn't help but come up to observe the two mechas personally. Meng Shangyuan and Mu Youyun also rushed over when they heard the news. They left and returned from the other side of the launch port, so it was quite a distance away. When they rushed over, the mecha hold on this side of the ship was already filled with the staff of the Feiyang Ship …
Other than Meng Shangyuan's ace operator from the Iron Curtain Battle Team, the other members they brought along were all special-class operators. However, these special-class operators were all on the verge of advancing to ace level. They brought them here because they wanted to find an opportunity for them to advance. However, they didn't expect this mission to be so dangerous. If it wasn't for the fact that Ling Lan had five ace operators in her team and they were all very strong, they might have died this time.
Luckily, these special-class operators were quite strong so they didn't die in this battle. This made the team leaders feel much better.
"Is it them?" Qian Jialin looked at Ling Lan and the others before asking Mu Youyun in a low voice.
Mu Youyun looked at Zilong and Zhao Jun seriously before nodding his head.
Qian Jialin looked at the six people who were surrounded by the crowd with a complicated expression. He sighed softly and said, "Young people are scary."
Was that domain realm master the team leader? No, the mainframe of the Federation didn't change the age of the domain realm masters. Also, that domain realm master wasn't any weaker than a titled domain realm master. He wasn't someone who had just advanced to the domain realm. Maybe it was because they sent out these mecha geniuses that the Federation sent out a titled domain realm master to protect them secretly.
Qian Jialin seemed to have found the answer. His expression instantly relaxed. This was the truth, right?
Wang Anzhong from the Immortal Battle Team looked at the two mechas that were captured. When he saw one of the mechas, his eyes lit up. Then, his eyes darkened. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Meng Shangyuan glanced at Wang Anzhong and frowned. He looked at Ling Lan and the others. Perhaps, he should inform the marshal … He sighed in his heart. Sometimes, if you contributed too much, you might not be able to keep it unless you really came from the Flying Dragon Special Forces.
Kang Jiayan touched his chin as if he was thinking about something. In the end, he laughed softly and said to his team members beside him, "Let's go!"
He didn't want to steal other people's credit but he didn't want to offend other people. Since that was the case, he might as well leave this place early and watch from the side. However, he felt that it was a pity. These young people from the Lingtian Battle Team might not be able to handle the blow of having their credit stolen. He hoped that they wouldn't be unable to recover from this setback. After all, they still had a long life ahead of them.
At that moment, Ling Xiao, who was sitting on his chair, turned off his communicator with a serious expression. He thought for a moment and pressed the button on his desk. "Chief of Staff He, come to my office immediately."
The silent battle was about to start. He couldn't let anyone steal his daughter's credit. If he did, he wouldn't be worthy of being Ling Lan's father.
Ling Xiao picked up a document beside him. This was a letter of appointment for a certain mecha clan's commanding officer. He had been holding it back for a long time. He opened the document that he had opened countless times. It said: Major Ling Lan will be the regiment commander of 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
"Is it personal?" Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with determination. So what if it was personal? Since his daughter was stronger than anyone else, he wouldn't allow anyone to point fingers at her.
Ling Xiao decisively picked up the pen on the table and wrote his name on the letter of appointment. He also wrote a big 'approved' word.
