It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Chapter 1116 Broadcast!

After a few seconds, almost simultaneously, two voices echoed in the commlink channel, “The results are in.”

“Jijyun go first. Lanfeng add to it if necessary,” Ling Lan said calmly.

“According to the thermal radar, that area’s temperature is abnormally high. The data from the light wave refraction radar can eliminate the possibility of the source being starships. If my analysis isn’t wrong, it should be a group of mechas.” Han Jijyun immediately told Ling Lan his analysis.

“When comparing the multi-frame light map, the opposition’s target destination will be towards our location,” added Li Lanfeng.

“Looks like they should be Knight Ace Mecha Clan.” Luo Lang began to rub his fists together.

“We still have to be cautious, in case the group of mechas that are going towards us is just a distraction, while they sent another group of mecha to our opposite direction” Liu Furong reminded. Back then, he had once lost to this method.

“No matter. If their target destination is towards our location, we will just wait until they get close to us,” Ling Lan said calmly.

Her gaze fell upon the front-lines, the mecha operators who were fighting for their lives made her feel bitter in her heart.

In order to hide the real goal of Knight Ace Mecha Clan, Caesar tossed out hundreds of thousands of mecha operators to battle on the front-lines. Base Nebula on the other hand, if they wanted to withhold their authority in the Nebula Boundary, also had to equally send out hundreds of thousands of mechas. Both sides were fighting with their lives on the line with seemingly no real goal in mind.

However, these hundreds of thousands of mecha operators didn’t know that it was just a move played by the higher-ups to make them fight a pointless war.

“People who are less capable will most definitely become cannon fodder.” Ling Lan felt the brutality of war once again.

If she wanted to take control of her destiny, she must become strong, so strong that no one could have any say in her decision. Ling Lan tightly clenched her fists. As her rank rose higher and higher, her capabilities also became stronger and stronger. It was more clear to her now that if she hadn’t gained her position of power, she would most likely become one of those poor cannon fodder who were fighting with their lives on the line.

Not only did she understand this, her father, Ling Xiao, had long understood this too. Now that she thought more deeply about her father’s minute moves, she believed that he was probably doing that to propel himself to a higher position of power.

Ling Lan suddenly remembered the time when she and her father realized that their actions portrayed themselves as the antagonists of a novel. Ling Lan snickered when she remembered that she had once been afraid that she might accidentally become the enemy of the whole world.

However, if her dad truly wished to go down this path of being the antagonist of the world, then as his ‘son’, could only follow her father to the ends of the world.

However before that, she needed to become stronger. She must acquire more strength to be able to help her father. She couldn’t let him fight all by himself.

“Regiment commander, we’ve decrypted the jamming sequence. Images are showing successfully.” Suddenly, Li Lanfeng’s voice echoed in her ears.

All of the leaders’ mechas had the decrypted image successfully show up on their screens. Countless Caesar mechas appeared in the image. Every mecha had Knight Ace Mecha Clan’s emblem on them.

“That’s it. It’s Knight Ace Mecha Clan!” Qi Long excitedly shouted, “They’re finally here.”

Ling Lan calmly looked at the incoming group of mechas and asked softly, “Is everyone ready?”

“Yes, sir!” Lingtian’s 2000 or so mecha operators all shouted.

Shinng! Ling Lan took out Firmament, pointed it towards the direction of Knight Ace Mecha Clan and coldly ordered, “The first 10 mecha teams will be our arrowheads and we will attack them with all we have!”

“Yes, sir!”

The first 10 mecha teams formed the first group and immediately went towards Knight Ace Mecha Clan. The 11 other mecha teams followed closely behind them. Reserve mecha operators were following their team leaders closely too.

“Regiment commander, there’s a mecha clan intercepting us.” The vanguard from Knight Ace Mecha Clan saw countless mechas flying towards them, and he immediately contacted their regiment commander, who was in the back of the army.

The regiment commander of Knight Ace Mecha Clan snorted coldly. “Get rid of them.”

How could normal mecha operators be able to go against Knight Ace Mecha Clan. He had already expected that his movements would be discovered sooner or later. Which was why he placed the strongest mecha team under his command as the vanguard.

“Yes, regiment commander.” After receiving their regiment commander’s kill order, Knight Ace Mecha Clan’s vanguard team excitedly rushed towards the incoming Federation’s mechas.

Yu Huan, who was sitting all alone in the command tower, felt a bit anxious. Back then, there was always Ke Yufeng, the regiment commander from Proud Wind Mecha Clan, in the tower alongside him who would always discuss battle plans with him. However, it was now only him who was responsible for the war that determined the survival of Base Nebula.

“That dumbass regiment commander from Lingtian. Does he not know commanders shouldn’t go into battle like that?” Yu Huan was livid. Ling Lan’s reckless actions caused him to not even have anyone to discuss the next course of the battle with.

“Commander, traces of Knight Ace Mecha Clan have been discovered,” the mainframe suddenly spoke.

“Where?” Yu Huan instantly awakened from the cursing session he had in his head about Ling Lan. Although he knew Knight Ace Mecha Clan was going to appear in this battle, the spy from Caesar still didn’t tell him the plans they had. He didn’t know whether the spy wasn’t informed of the plan or was it because his interrogation method was too soft.

“They are less than 30 kilometers away from our base’s launching area.” replied the mainframe after comparing coordinates.

“Wouldn’t they arrive in just a few minutes?” Yu Huan jumped up in fright. If given that little amount of time, even if he were to immediately activate Base Nebula’s engine and try to escape, he wouldn’t have enough time.

“Lingtian, where are they?” Yu Huan suddenly remembered that Ling Lan had said that Lingtian would be responsible for intercepting Knight Ace Mecha Clan, so he immediately asked the mainframe for their location.

“Lingtian and Knight Ace Mecha Clan have already encountered each other. Knight Ace Mecha Clan’s coordinates were sent by Lingtian,” replied the mainframe.

“Can you pull up the live feed of Lingtian and Knight Ace’s battle?” asked Yu Huan. He hoped Lingtian could hold for a short while so that it would give him enough time to activate the engine of Base Nebula.

“Of course,” replied the mainframe.

“Pull up the live feed of the battle and activate the base’s engine simultaneously!” Yu Huan quickly gave two orders.

“Understood.” The mainframe activated the base’s engine while showing the live feed of the battle between Lingtian and Knight Ace Mecha Clan. The mainframe thought Yu Huan wanted it to play the live feed of the battle to the entire base because Yu Huan didn’t specify in his orders. Thus, on every screen in Base Nebula, the same video feed showed up.

“Hey look, it’s the battle in the space above us!” The video feed on the large screen instantly drew the attention of many soldiers in the base.

“Ah, it’s here as well.” A soldier from another direction shouted out.

“It’s showing here as well.”

“And here.”

“All the videos are the same.” Everyone discovered this.

Everyone was shocked. They were curious about the reason why they were shown this video feed. Other than those who couldn’t stop what they were doing, all the other soldiers dropped what they were doing and watched the battle.

It should be known that during past wars, bases only had very few screens that had live feeds of the battle in the space above them. Most of the screens were used to send orders from the command tower. This time however, it was completely different, and that was why it drew everyone’s attention.

Everyone wanted to know which of their mecha clan and Caesar’s mecha clan were they going to watch.

Suddenly, a Caesar mecha showed up on the large screen. The knight emblem was clearly shown to everyone.

“It’s Knight Ace Mecha Clan!” All the mecha operators who knew about Knight Ace Mecha Clan all instantly shouted out in surprise.
