It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 505 Infiltration!

Right when that 12-man team of special-cla.s.s operators drew near, the team leader coldly asked, "Who are you guys?" The smallest team around here was a 12-man battle team. Ling Lan only had six mecha. That was why they felt something was weird.

Ling Lan calmly replied, "We b.u.mped into a battle team that was hidden. We fought a huge battle and although we won, a few of our members paid the price." Ling Lan suffused a good amount of spiritual power in those words to increase her persuasive ability.

It had to be said that it was safer for Ling Lan to combine spiritual power and persuasion compared to using only spiritual power to affect the opponent. This wouldn't get rid of someone's suspicions and make them feel a discrepancy, but instead slowly weaken an individual's suspicions and in the end, make them naturally let go of such thoughts.

There were too many people here. Ling Lan didn't have the certainty that she could affect everyone with her spiritual power. In order to not raise the suspicions of the others nearby, she could only be more careful. Even if she knew that talking more with the other party would increase the chance of being exposed, Ling Lan felt that she couldn't take that risk.

Sure enough, Ling Lan answer made that team leader's suspicions decrease greatly. In reality, he was only wondering why there would be a broken team in the area between Area Q and M. It should be known that the patrolling battle teams around them were all full teams. This was also the reason why he stopped Ling Lan and not because he really suspected they were the enemy.

Hearing Ling Lan's answer, that team leader was surprised. He quickly asked, "Where? Which military academy did you guys b.u.mp into?"

Ling Lan responded coldly, "Please forgive me for not being able to inform you of that location before I report it to my commander. In truth, I'm not sure who the opponents were!"

Ling Lan's answer angered the other side, but there were no problems with her words. Usually, when something like this happened, they would naturally make a report to their own commander first, and then let him decide whether or not to tell the allied military academies. His question was indeed over the top.

"Haha, as expected of the Second Men's Military Academy. Very disciplined," the team leader said grudgingly. He felt that he lost some pride. "However, we're all friends here. Some information should be shared, right?"

Ling Lan hesitated slightly, as though she was struggling with the thought. After a while, she replied, "It's not that I don't want to tell everyone. It's just that I really don't know which military academy the opponent was from. At the border of Area S and M, we found a suspicious team who hid their ident.i.ty. When we went up to ask them about it, they suddenly attacked us. If it wasn't for that, our battle team wouldn't have been lost so many people," Ling Lan responded as she bit her lip.

The team leader looked at the 5 mecha that were following behind Ling Lan. Two special-cla.s.s mechas had scratch marks on the outer mecha sh.e.l.l. Three advanced mechas also had a few scratches and kinks. His eyes immediately flashed with a hint of disdain. Only a battle team that was this inferior could be successfully sneak attacked by opponents. If it were his battle team, he would not have lost a single mecha and would have been able to let the opponent only come not be able to leave at all…

Having underestimated Ling Lan, he wasn't interested in asking more questions. As for the team that had entered the border, it was probably a battle team from Area S. Battle teams from Area S had already probed Area M many times. Not only had the team in front of him b.u.mped into them, other allied battle teams had also b.u.mped into them. All of them had losses or victories.

Thus, he said, "In that case, I won't hold you from returning to your headquarters to report to Alliance Chief Jiang."

"Thank you for understanding!" Ling Lan let out a sigh of relief. She looked at the other party and made a hand sign to her team to move out. She then led her team members and quickly flew towards Area Q. Since they were discovered by a battle team and pa.s.sed open s.p.a.ce at the same time, Ling Lan no longer hid. They proudly flew towards the Second Men's Military Academy's headquarters.

Seeing the figures of Ling Lan's battle team disappearing into the distance, one of the members of that team leader's team asked, "Captain, are you not going to remind them? If they go back, they will definitely not have a good time." When they had come here, they received a new order. That order was that battle teams were restricted from getting close to the Second Men's Military Academy's headquarters.

"This matter is related to the Second Men's Military Academy. What does it have to do with us?" the captain smiled coldly and said. That beat-up battle team didn't show him any respect, so why should he remind them? Also, that guy Jiang Shaoyu was delusional to think that he could control the entire alliance. That would depend on whether they agree or not. He was very happy to see instability within the Second Men's Military Academy. This would make it so Jiang Shaoyu wouldn't have the energy to deal with them.

The captain knew very well that even though they were allied forces, they still were cautious of each other. They were scared that they would be stabbed in the back by the allies. In the face of personal interest, who knew what the other could do. There wasn't anything like a gentlemen's promise here.

This team leader didn't think that his carefulness had actually helped Ling Lan. It had to be said that although Jiang Shaoyu had unified Area Q and M on the surface, in reality, all the allied battle teams had their own plans. They weren't truly cooperating and because of this reason, a little pest like Ling Lan had successfully sneaked through to their central area. They would hide and deal a crippling blow to the Second Men's Military Academy.

Ling Lan ran like mad all the way, got out of the encirclement and wiped away the cold sweat she had. That moment just then was the most dangerous time Ling Lan had experienced during the infiltration. However, they had unexpectedly and easily pa.s.sed it. Ling Lan rejoiced greatly, but still felt terrified after the fact.

"Captain, we're getting close to the Second Men's Military Academy," reminded Li Lanfeng. He was sitting in Ling Lan's mecha's pa.s.senger seat, looking at the map to find the direction, and he found that the target was very close.

"Lanfeng, what should we do next?" Ling Lan turned around and asked. Since she wanted to develop Li Lanfeng, Ling Lan would let him perform at all times.

"We must find a place to rest up," Li Lanfeng said. "Our mecha have already been active for 18 consecutive hours. Everyone's tired."

Ling Lan nodded in agreement. "You're right. Just tell me any recommendations you have."

Li Lanfeng smiled and replied, "My suggestion is that we should take over the headquarters of a weaker military academy as our headquarters in Area Q."

"Why not let us find a remote area as our area to rest?" Ling Lan asked.

"We don't know much about the situation in Area Q. Also, no one knows whether the areas that are considered to be uninhabited actually have people occupying them or not. Even if there weren't people there, if a battle team suddenly appears, it would be very unexpected. Instead, it would be better to take over a headquarters and hide in the shadows of the light." Li Lanfeng spoke out his reason.

Ling Lan was satisfied. She used her fingers and started drumming on the control panel. She calmly asked, "Which one did you choose?"

These words of Ling Lan made Li Lanfeng let out a sigh of relief. When Ling Lan had asked that question just now, it was without a doubt a test for him. Now it seemed that he had pa.s.sed. Li Lanfeng was filled with joy. He decisively pointed towards an area on the map and said, "Right here."

"Jianqiao Military Academy?" Ling Lan had already clearly seen the area that Li Lanfeng had chosen. Her lips perked up. "Not bad indeed."

Jianqiao Military Academy's rank in all of the military academies was on the lower side. In Area Q, they weren't the worst of the allied forces. Those who were of the lower-middle tier were not really valued by the allied forces. Additionally, they would also not be like the worst one that the allied forces would watch all the time to make sure they don't fumble the ball. Li Lanfeng's choice was made after deep and prepared thinking.

Having been acknowledged by Ling Lan, Li Lanfeng's lips involuntarily showed a hint of a smile.

Since they had decided, Ling Lan let the others and silently changed their direction, now flying towards Jianqiao Military Academy, which was a few hundred yards out from the Second Men's Military Academy. And at this time, night fell and went into the 16-hour night-time.

The commander who stayed behind to protect Jianqiao Military Academy was frustrated. He didn't think that Jiang Shaoyu would be so unreasonable and force all the allied forces to send out 80% of their headquarters' battle strength to partic.i.p.ate in the patrol work of the entire Area M and Area Q. Looking at the two 12-man battle teams that were left in the headquarters, along with some logistics personnel, and comparing this to the Second Men's Military Academy's headquarters that had five layers of military strength defending it, along with Jiang Shaoyu in the center, he became even more frustrated.

"Only the Second Men's Military Academy's headquarters is important? Are we, the other allied military academies' headquarters, unimportant and can be tossed aside whenever?" the commander thought angrily. If a battle team were to infiltrate right now, even if it were a 12-man battle team, it would still be a destructive blow to Jianqiao Military Academy. Their academy wasn't greatly capable. They had barely a.s.sembled a 12-man special-cla.s.s operator battle team, but it was sent out by Jiang Shaoyu, leaving only these 2 weak and broken teams… Each battle team only had four special-cla.s.s operators while the others were advanced mecha operators.

The commander felt sadder and sadder as he looked at them. He believed that unless there were no enemy battle teams that would infiltrate their headquarters, they would definitely have no way of fighting back. Those a.s.sault battle teams were all merciless fellows.

Just like that, the commander went through the daytime while being angry and frustrated. Seeing that night had fallen, the captain ordered the logistics personnel to turn on the light sources. In order to make sure they were safe, they made the headquarters light up as though it was daytime. However, it was because of this that the light sources were used up. There weren't enough light sources for the battle teams to move around to every corner of the headquarters. The two battle teams huddled up in the middle of the headquarters and didn't set up any patrols around the perimeter. Of course, looking at the strength they had left for defending their headquarters, they couldn't really spare too many people to do something like that.

"It's snowing again." Before the sun went down, it was still a hot summer climate. After sunset, it went into dark winter and snow began to fell. The commander could not help but sigh. This crazy weather was really making it hard for them.

He looked at the logistics head and asked, "Do you think we should make some hot soup and let everyone drink some to warm their stomachs?" Although there were temperature controls in the mecha c.o.c.kpit, people shouldn't stay in mecha for 24 hours. Otherwise, the mecha operators could feel sluggish due to the cramped s.p.a.ce and this could even easily lead to a poor state of mind, such as depression and frustration. Thus, during the course of the day, they would always set a time for the mecha operators to leave their mecha and rest up.

The logistics head nodded his head and replied, "This idea is very good. We didn't hear anything odd from Area M during the day. Area Q has Area M guarding it, so we actually aren't in too much danger. We'll just let the two teams get off and eat one at a time. Nothing big will happen."

"I know. This is also why Jiang Shaoyu demanded us to send out 80% of our military strength to patrol the two areas. Although I'm really angry, I had a reason to not go against him. Compared to Area M, our Area Q is much safer," said the commander. Although it was largely because they couldn't defend against the overpowered Second Men's Military Academy, this reason was also part of it. A lower ranked military academy like them would be satisfied as long as their own headquarters didn't get taken.

Just like that, the two mecha teams were informed that they could eat a hot meal. They were all so happy. No one wanted to just chew on buns as they were tasteless. It was a disgusting nutrient solution… After entering the battle royale, they had been eating this for every meal. They had already gotten tired of it.

Just like that, the members of one of the battle teams, who were originally in the mecha, came down to rest. When Ling Lan heard Little Four report this situation to her, she actually had a strange thought that she could actually be the main female lead for once.

Ling Lan was originally worried about how to deal with the two battle teams. Although the two battle teams were composed of a mixture between special-cla.s.s operators and advanced mecha operators, their numbers were way more than theirs. Ling Lan was confident that they would definitely achieve victory from her team member's hard work. However, her objective was to not alert the surrounding powers and silently finish the job. This was the certain way of realizing the goal of taking down the headquarters secretly.

She hadn't expected that the other side would make a decision like this right when she had started worrying. This was like someone giving you a pillow when you wanted to sleep. It was so lucky that it was not so different from the set-up of a supposed main female lead in a novel.

Ling Lan would not give up such a good opportunity. She quickly led her team members and infiltrated Jianqiao Military Academy's headquarters. Although Area Q's headquarters was considered to be easy to defend and hard to attack, this also required that the other party had more than enough strength to defend. Right now, the headquarters that had pretty much zero defensive power, which allowed them to easily infiltrate into the heart of headquarters.

Of course, it was this easy only because Little Four had disrupted the radars of the opponent's mecha. This was also why Ling Lan dared to openly take her team members into the center of the headquarters.

"12 mechas; four special-cla.s.s mechas and eight advanced mechas. You guys all choose your own opponents." Ling Lan looked at the defended position up ahead and the mecha and informed her team members.

Qi Long was the first to scream out, "That special-cla.s.s operator B1 is mine." Qi Long said this without holding anything back after setting his eyes on one special-cla.s.s operator.

Ling Lan snorted coldly. "What I want is an instant kill. Change your target." This situation was different compared to the last time; they had to end it quickly. She couldn't let Qi Long be headstrong.

Qi Long looked at that special-cla.s.s operator with regret, but had no choice but to chose the two advanced mechas that were closest to him. "Then I'll take B2 and X1, these two advanced mecha."

Ling Lan calmly said, "I'll only give you one minute. If you pa.s.s that time limit, every second will equal one day's of training in the secret room."

Qi Long groaned instantly, "Boss, you're too cruel."

"You can choose to give up and only face one," Ling Lan said coldly. For someone like Qi Long, she had to pressure him. The more he was pressured, the more likely it was for him to be successful.

Qi Long wasn't someone that would admit defeat. Hearing Ling Lan words, he immediately replied, "Okay, one minute. I don't believe that I won't be able to do it!"

After he said this, everyone else looked at Qi Long with sympathetic looks. This guy had fallen into Boss' trap. They could all foresee the miserable result Qi Long was going to face when he returned. However, they wouldn't be good Samaritans and remind Qi Long. They wanted to watch the scene of Qi Long's miserable experience.

Li s.h.i.+yu wasn't cruel enough, however; he was afraid that Qi Long would say something more and result would be even more miserable. Thus, he said, "Give that B1 to me."

Li Lanfeng could not help but cover his face. He glanced at Li s.h.i.+yu. His dumb little brother helping was worse than not helping. It was obviously pouring salt on Qi Long's wound.

Seeing Qi Long looking at Li s.h.i.+yu resentfully and Li s.h.i.+yu with a baffled expression, Xie Yi held in his laughter and said, "Give D1, that advanced mecha, to me."

Luo Lang also felt the odd atmosphere between Qi Long and Li s.h.i.+yu. He followed up after Xie Yi and said, "I'll be responsible for F2, that advanced mecha." Since they needed to end the battle as quickly as possible, Luo Lang and the others didn't choose opponents whose strength was above their own.

Zhao Jun thought it over and said, "I'm confident that I can take down a special-cla.s.s mecha within one minute." His words meant that he didn't have the confidence that he would be able to defeat two mecha within a short amount of time. If he was operating an ace mecha, he would perhaps be willing to try.

Everyone looked towards Ling Lan. There were still two special-cla.s.s mecha as well as four special-cla.s.s mecha. These numbers made up half a battle team. Even someone like Boss Lan would probably have a hard time defeating them.

Li Lanfeng was frustrated. If he could operate a mecha, he could at least intercept one special-cla.s.s mecha or perhaps one the advanced mecha. That way, Ling Lan wouldn't need to be responsible for so much. Once again, Li Lanfeng felt his uselessness. He always felt that he was pulling Ling Lan's leg.

Li s.h.i.+yu worriedly said, "I think I can be responsible for another advanced mecha."

Zhao Jun followed up, saying, "Then I'll be responsible for two more advanced mecha." How could an ace operator like him lose to Li s.h.i.+yu who had only just advanced to special-cla.s.s level?

"No need. Li s.h.i.+yu you are still responsible for B1. Zhao Jun, you're responsible for the special-cla.s.s mecha, N1. At the same time, you will aid Li s.h.i.+yu. Leave all the other ones to me," said Ling Lan calmly as she clenched the Firmament in her hand. Although there would be some difficulty involved, Ling Lan wasn't someone who would retreat from difficult situations.

"Yes, Captain!" Zhao Jun heard Ling Lan's order and his eyes flashed. Was Boss Lan this strong? He suddenly thought of the proud and aloof Qiao Ting. If he knew Ling Lan's real potential, would he still remain as proud?

Ling Lan made a signal and they quickly moved silently towards their targets.

At that moment, the 12-man battle team that was defending in all directions were all looking forward to a bowl of hot soup. They didn't know that the time of their demise was upon them.

"Who knows when Little Shu and the other's will finish eating and rotate s.h.i.+fts with us?" One member licked his lips. Ever since they came into the battle royale, it was the first time he was going to have a hot meal. He had been about to puke from eating nutrient solutions.

"I don't know. That Little Mo even provoked me earlier saying that we were going to eat cold food. Made me so angry," another member said angrily. Although they were of the same military academy, each battle team still had a rivalry relations.h.i.+p and would definitely have a little friction between the two of them.

"Captain Feng won't take too long. Don't worry guys." The captain heard the murmurs of the team members and spoke to comfort them. In reality, he also wanted to immediately go into the resting area and eat a hot meal. Unfortunately, he had lost a bet with Captain Feng just now. He could only let his team members endure it for the time being.

At that moment, Ling Lan was staring at the mechas that guarded different directions. Although there were just about only short and thin trees in Area Q, it wasn't like there weren't any towering trees. There was a dense forest area in the center of Jianqiao Military Academy's headquarters. This allowed those mechas that were guarding the center point to safely hide within it. However, at the same time, this gave the attacker places to hide. Attackers like Ling Lan.

Ling Lan discovered that these people weren't very alert, so much so that some of the mecha operators were just playing around and didn't actually pay attention to their surroundings. This made Ling Lan overjoyed. Their lack of attention undoubtedly brought about a huge convenience for Ling Lan. She was now more confident in instantly taking down six mecha.

Right then, two mecha suddenly turned around and left the area within Ling Lan's line of sight. Ling Lan's eyes lit up and her fingers danced around quickly. Her mecha instantly pounced towards the two mecha from behind a towering tree.

These were two advanced mecha. The distance between them was a bit close. Originally, Ling Lan was worried that when she was taking care of one mecha, the other mecha would discover her. Now, if they didn't see Ling Lan at the beginning, Ling Lan was certain that she could instantly kill these two mecha.

Ling Lan's mecha's speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, she appeared before one of the mecha. Firmament, held in her hand, slashed horizontally towards that mecha.

s.h.i.+ng! The sharp edge of the Firmament easily tore open the opponent mecha's neck. She didn't need to cut it fully; she only needed to damage the operating system of the mecha then let the A.I. lock up and determine that the mecha was killed instantly.

Now, because Ling Lan's speed was really fast and silent, adding on Little Four disrupting the radar, the teammate closest to this mecha actually didn't realize anything. After taking care of this mecha, Ling Lan used her the tip of her feet to push against the ground. The mecha had already changed its direction and pounced towards that mecha that was closest to the one that was taken down.

s.h.i.+ng… another advanced mecha was killed instantly before they realized what had happened. Ling Lan fixed her eyes on the third mecha… Only using a few seconds, she silently took care of the four advanced mecha. There was no difficulty in going against advanced mecha for Ling Lan whose finger speed had already reached the peak of ace operators.

Ling Lan now changed her target to the two special-cla.s.s operators who were left. When she took care of the first special-cla.s.s mecha, the sounds made by Qi Long and the others alarmed another special-cla.s.s mecha.

That special-cla.s.s mecha quickly called to the members of the team, but found that there wasn't anyone replying. Right then, he knew that something was wrong. He decisively pushed down on the sound amplification b.u.t.ton and screamed at the top of his lungs, "Enemy attack!" At the same time, his mecha was suddenly struck and uncontrollably fell towards the ground.

Right when that special-cla.s.s operator's finished screaming, he discovered that his c.o.c.kpit had turned pitch-black. He had already been locked in the c.o.c.kpit. He thought back to a few seconds ago, but couldn't confirm whether he had successfully sent out the message that they were being attacked.

Ling Lan walked towards the mecha that had fallen and slowly pulled out her Firmament. She had sensed the action the opponent was about to take. She hadn't stopped to think and flung her wrist, tossing the Firmament from her hand, severing the opponent mecha's operating system right before he could successfully send out his voice.
