Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The welcoming dinner ended on a bad note due to Ling Lan’s dominance. The next day, the news of 250 Ace Mecha Clan being a domineering and fierce mecha clan spread throughout the entire base. Of course, this news was able to spread so quickly thanks to some certain people.

Everyone was secretly observing the movements of 250 Ace Mecha Clan, as 250 Ace Mecha Clan had offended the three most powerful people in the base. The first person was the Regiment Commander of 224 Mecha Clan as well as a descendant of the Second Marshal, Song Yiqing. The second person was the leader of the unruly and powerful Evil Wind Mecha Team, Yan Three. Even the boss of the base had to bend to their will them sometimes, as they were the aces of the base to protect them from their enemies. All the battle teams were afraid of offending them, as they could just leave them to wolves when the ‘wolves’ come and attack them. The third person they had offended was the boss of the base, Du Mingyi.

If 250 Ace Mecha Clan wanted to hold power in Base 013, they needed to deal with the retaliation of these three people first.

Du Mingyi could not harm 250 Ace Mecha Clan directly. After all, 250 Ace Mecha Clan was a mecha clan sent by the higher authorities. As the commanding officer of the base, he needed to treat them well. However, Du Mingyi as a narrow-minded person couldn’t bear to let them off just like that. Hence, he would definitely pull some tricks behind the scenes. All his actions would be done in secret so nothing could be seen in the short while. Thus, his retaliation was not what everyone in the base wanted to see. They wanted to see what the Evil Wind Mecha Team and Song Yiqing would do.

Many people felt that Song Yiqing would be the first to take revenge on 250 Ace Mecha Clan. However, he surprisingly did nothing as everything seemed calm on his side, surprising many battle teams. They knew Song Yiqing was not someone who accepted defeat easily. Yet, this time, in the face of the heir of the 13th division, Qi Long, he chose to bear with his anger... after everyone took some time to think about his actions, everyone understood why he didn’t do anything. He was waiting for the Evil Wind Mecha Team to act first. He wanted to use the Evil Wind Mecha Team to test the 250 Ace Mecha Clan’d depths. He could afford to wait for the Evil Wind Mecha Team but they couldn’t as Ling Lan only gave them three days. After the three days, they had to report to 250 Ace Mecha Clan at 8 am.

Song Yiqing was a haughty person but he was not stupid. He knew he should stay low first and let other people test the waters of 250 Ace Mecha Clan.

Just like what Song Yiqing expected, after the members of the Evil Wind Mecha Team came back from the welcoming dinner, they felt extremely uncomfortable. They didn’t know what to do. Ling Lan forced them to make a decision. ‘Are they going to submit to him or should they retaliate back?’

“Leader, we will not go. Unless we die, we will not leave the Evil Wind Mecha Team!” The mecha operators from the Evil Wind Mecha Team gathered at the training ground and pledged their alliance to Yan Three loudly. They met many life-or-death situations on the battlefield before, making them stubborn and unyielding.

“I’m thinking about what Ling Lan would do to make me regret if we don’t go...” Yan Three wouldn’t submit to Ling Lan just because of a single sentence. However, he couldn’t throw the threat to the back of his mind. Ling Lan was someone who had the heir of the 13th division as his mecha operator so she definitely must have some capabilities. This made him worried.

If he was alone, he was not afraid. He might just be forced out of the military and become a commoner. However, in reality, he had many mecha operators under him. They had a bright future ahead. He couldn’t let them suffer just because of his decision. action

“He will just force us out of the military. What is so frightening about that? I don’t like wars anyway. It’s not too bad if I can go back and become a normal worker.” The mecha operators were not stupid too. They had considered this possibility before.

“Yes, leader. We made a vow before. We will rather stand and die instead of kneeling to live. We will not go back on our vow even if we have to suffer,” one of the mecha operators said what everyone was thinking. ‘If they betrayed their belief and lived without meaning, what is the point of living?’

Yan Three looked at his team members intently and saw their firm expressions. He said slowly, “Are you really not afraid?”

“Why should we be afraid? We have been through so many near-death situations on the battlefield. Why will we be afraid of a mere ace mecha clan?” Someone laughed and replied.

Everyone laughed along. Their fearless laughter portrayed their feelings now. They were really not afraid. They were people who struggled to survive on the battlefield. Their lives were clawed back from the brink of death. Nothing was able to threaten them compared to what they had experienced on the battlefield.

“Well, let’s not care about that damn 250 Ace Mecha Clan and do what we are supposed to do!” Yan Three waved his hand and made a decision. Even the commanding officer of the base asked him to ignore 250 Ace Mecha Clan so why should he be afraid of them?

The three-day deadline finally ended. Everyone’s attention was on 250 Ace Mecha Clan and the Evil Wind Mecha Team. Finally, it was 8 am. The entrance of the two camps was quiet. No one came out, no one went in.

“Looks like the Evil Wind Mecha Team decided to ignore Ling Lan.” Cui Yunxuan and Xu Shiming were sitting in the camp of the scouts. They were looking at the information Cui Yunxuan’s scouts brought back.

“Isn’t this within our expectations? If Yan Three submitted to Ling Lan that easily, he wouldn’t be Yan Three.” Xu Shiming worked with Yan Three many times. Yan Three had a bad temper but he had the capabilities and morals. Xu Shiming admired this man.

“It’s time to see how Regiment Commander Ling will handle this.” If Ling Lan didn’t subdue the Evil Wind Mecha Team today, he would be embarrassing himself.

Times passed. Yet, there was still no activity within the 250 Ace Mecha Clan camp. Just when everyone was anxious, they heard a loud vibration coming from the two camps.

‘What is happening? Let’s rewind the time.’

At the regiment commander’s office at 250 Ace Mecha Clan camp. The time was before 8 am.

Ling Lan was flipping through some documents. The ten team leaders were already prepared to receive orders. Li Shiyu and his medical team were inside the office too. Luo and Han Xuya wore their white gowns again and waited excitedly for 8 am to arrive.

Finally, it was 8 am. Luo Shaoyun, who was in charge of guarding the entrance, immediately report to Yang Mingzhi that the Evil Wind Mecha Team didn’t appear.

“Regiment commander, the Evil Wind Mecha Team didn’t come!” Yang Mingzhi immediately reported to Ling Lan.

Ling Lan stopped flipping the documents. The next second, she closed the file. “As expected, they didn’t come.”

She stood up. The temporary adjutant for the day, Lin Zhong-qing, quickly draped the white cloak over her shoulders. Just as he was about to pick up the silver short whip, Han Xuya had already rushed forward and brought it to her.

Ling Lan had no choice but to take it. She knocked Han Xuya’s forehead. ‘This little girl thought that I like to use the whip to punish people.’

Han Xuya touched her head and smiled like an idiot, making Luo Chao felt frustrated. She should have gotten the short whip just now. She missed a chance to interact intimately with her Boss.
