It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 836 Something Is Wrong!

Qi Long looked at Xie Yi with disdain. 'You just had to create trouble out of nothing.' He jeered, "Can you not differentiate between Luo Lang and Luo Chao?"

Xie Yi quickly put his hands down and said hurriedly, "How is that possible? Even if Luo Lang turns into dust… pfft, no way. I mean, no matter how he disguises himself, I will still be able to recognize him."

"That's right. Although they have the same face, real friends will be able to see their unique points." Qi Long said indifferently, "As for everyone else, since they are not their true friends, why bother about them even if they can't differentiate them? Do you think Luo Chao and Luo Lang will care about them?"

Xie Yi's lips twitched. 'Luo Chao might not mind but what about Luo Lang?' Xie Yi felt if Luo Lang got wrongly recognized as a girl, he would turn berserk. Yes, he was very sure about this.

At the command center, the adjutant walked into the commanding officer's office with a large folder given by the staff who were monitoring the cameras in the mecha hold.

"Senior colonel, this is the attendance of all the mecha clans who have appeared in the mecha hold." The adjutant pa.s.sed the folder over.

Du Mingyi quickly flipped through it. He wanted to see the information on 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He frowned and said, "Ling Lan didn't come…"

However, he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw all the ten team leaders present. The rest of the mecha operators in 250 Ace Mecha Clan were there too. The number of mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan in mecha hold tally with the number of mecha operators in 250 Mecha Clan in their records. 'Since those team leaders are all going out of the base, Ling Lan will not possess any danger to me even if he stays back at the base, as all Ling Lan has on his hands are just logisticians.' Du Mingyi thought to himself.

He flicked the folder close and muttered to himself, "He didn't go because he is afraid that I'll harm his logisticians when he leaves. Hmph! He is underestimating me. I'm not that stupid to do it now. I'll just touch your logisticians just before the war starts."

With all the elites of 250 Ace Mecha Clan gone, he didn't need to worry about Ling Lan anymore. With just him and his logisticians, they wouldn't be able to touch him in his base. Ling Lan was guarded against him but he was also guarding against Ling Lan too. He was afraid that Ling Lan would make use of this opportunity when the base entered into DEFCON 1 to take over the control of his base, so it was for this reason why he ordered his men to watch over the 250 Ace Mecha Clan.

Du Mingyi felt relieved so he just casually threw the folder on the table. He decided that once the battle started, he would transfer 250 Ace Mecha Clan to the most dangerous battlefield, and finally destroying this thorn on his side. Since the clan was the ace mecha clan of Base 013, it was reasonable for him to put them in the most dangerous place. Whether they survived or not, it depended on their luck. It was their misfortune and their punishment to have such an arrogant and domineering regiment commander.

'Wait, Young Master Qi Long is inside 250 Ace Mecha Clan too.' Du Mingyi frowned. If anything happened to Qi Long, he would definitely be questioned by the General of the 13th division, even if he covered up the crime perfectly, he still couldn't escape being investigated. 'It seems like I have to protect Young Master Qi Long by moving him away from his clan.' He needed to think about this.

As Du Mingyi was planning how he should move Qi Long away, his adjutant was increasingly more anxious as time went by, as he was aware of the impatient mecha operators in the mecha hold who were already calling for his head. When he saw Du Mingyi still remaining silent amidst the commotion going on the mecha hold, he gathered his courage and reminded him, "Senior colonel, Xu s.h.i.+ming and the other regiment commanders are still waiting for your orders. Shall we inform the logisticians and JMCs to start working?"

Du Mingyi got a shock when he received the reminder. Since 250 Ace Mecha Clan didn't pose any danger to him now, he shouldn't keep the scouts team waiting anymore. If not, Xu s.h.i.+ming might really explode in anger. He had already taught Xu s.h.i.+ming a lesson, allowing him to understand the consequences of provoking him so he shouldn't delay any longer. Hence, he nodded, "Let the scouts team move out. As for the other mecha clans, ask them to continue waiting at the mecha hold." However, he couldn't let the other mecha clans off that easily.

"Yes!" The adjutant replied quickly before rus.h.i.+ng out of the office to order a staff to contact the logistics and JMC department.

"JMC department, please reply when you receive the message…" The staff tried to contact the JMC department but after multiple tries, there was no response from them. "013, please reply. 013, please reply." The staff immediately contacted the mainframe of the base, as he sensed that something was wrong. He wanted to determine if there was some problem with the communication device at the JMC department by contacting the mainframe, but there was still no reply again. The staff's expression turned for the worse as he stood up in fear. "Sir, there is no reply from the mainframe."

All the staff got nervous when they heard this. The leader of the command center staff, who was a senior captain, instantly took his position and called the mainframe again. "013, please reply. 013, please reply."

But there was still no reply from the mainframe. It was as though it was in a deep sleep. The senior captain didn't dare to waste any time as he scrambled towards Du Mingyi's office. When he arrived at the door, he shouted at Du Mingyi, "Senior colonel! There is a problem with the mainframe."

Du Mingyi stood up instantly. His sudden and forceful action caused the folder on his table to fall on the ground. He asked in a stern tone, "What is happening?"

"Senior colonel, we can't receive a reply from the mainframe." The senior captain's face was pale. Once the mainframe malfunctioned, all the systems controlled by it would stop working. The most frightening thing was, the protective s.h.i.+eld protecting the base would disappear too. If Hailiya attacked their base in this vulnerable state, staff like them would be at their mercy. They were not like the mecha operators who still had a mecha to protect them.

Du Mingyi's face turned white too when he heard this. He knew how important the mainframe was to the entire base. He quickly aimed his communicator at the optical supercomputer on his office table, trying to use his authority as the commanding officer of the base to activate the mainframe.

It was useless. The mainframe was spoilt. No matter how much he restarted it, there was no reaction.

Suddenly, Du Mingyi heard a scream of terror followed by the noise of an intense fight.

Du Mingyi looked at the dead mainframe and thought of something. He rushed out of his office. Just as he was about to reach the main entrance of the command center, the door suddenly opened, revealing a young military doctor in a white gown with a surgical mask over his face.

"Long time no see, Senior Colonel Du!" The person raised one of his eyebrows and smiled when he saw Du Mingyi. He seemed to be greeting an old friend.
