Chapter 1448 Find The Answer.“Boss, where are we going?” After flying blindly with seemingly no goal in sight, Luo Lang finally couldn"t withstand the urge to appease his curiosity.
“To find an answer,” Ling Lan replied calmly. Currently, Li Lanfeng was seated limply on the auxiliary seat next to her. He was still unconscious.
“Answer?” Luo Lang was puzzled. Why was Boss being so indirect with his words? Why couldn"t he understand anything? In the past, when Xie Yi was beside him, he would always explain everything whenever he didn"t understand something. Now, realizing he was so helpless without Xie Yi, Luo Lang started to miss the times when he had Xie Yi beside him. Back then, he wouldn"t need to care about anything then as Xie Yi would do everything for him.
“Why did Lord Qian betray the Federation? The information I have now is not enough.” Ling Lan couldn"t help but frown when she said this.
Lord Qian had already reached the G.o.d-realm. He belonged to the tip of the totem pole of formidable warriors. Logically, as long as he didn"t leave the Lawless Lands, the Federation couldn"t do anything to him even if he disobeyed them. But, realistically, that wasn"t the case. On the surface, the Federation couldn"t mess with more G.o.d-realm formidable warriors or G.o.d-cla.s.s operators when their plates were already filled with G.o.d-realm formidable warriors and G.o.d-cla.s.s operators from Caesar, but based on her deep understanding of the Federation, Ling Lan knew that there were a few G.o.d-realm formidable warriors that they hadn"t revealed yet. If the Federation really wanted to deal with him, they had their ways.
If she was aware of this, Lord Qian must know this too. Hence, without ample reasons, a sly old fox like him wouldn"t take the risk to betray the Federation so easily. He even attacked his companions who went through thick and thin with him.
This was the reason why Ling Lan didn"t ask Elder Father more about Lord Qian. Even after spending years together as a compet.i.tive rival to Lord Qian, Elder Father still truly didn"t know about the true face of Lord Qian. Because of his pre-set impression of Lord Qian being wrong, he got schemed by Lord Qian in the end.
Since the Federation gave him this important mission to infiltrate into the Lawless Lands, Lord Qian must be an extremely intelligent person. As one, he naturally wouldn"t let go of any suspicious factors. If Elder Father wasn"t guarded against Lord Qian, it meant that he didn"t know what Lord Qian truly cared about. Lord Qian might have allowed Elder Father to live because he was his old comrade, but the most likely reason was because Elder Father was totally oblivious about Lord Qian"s true thoughts, so it was totally useless to question Elder Father further as it might skew her impression of Lord Qian into a totally different direction.
Since Elder Father didn"t have the answer, she needed to find other ways to get it. Luckily, Ling Lan had previously gone through the historical records about the Lawless Lands during this period of time, and she finally found a lead where they could obtain the answer.
The lead was the 11th Preserve District.
These people were the true natives of the Lawless Lands who knew the true faces of 13 Lords. Yet, the 13 Lords chose to ignore and let them be. They seemed to be sowing seeds or planning something. Of course, since they belonged to different factions, every lord had their own goal in mind. Ling Lan was a newly arised lord so even though she knew that there was something wrong with this district, she couldn"t interfere with them immediately.
The previous Lord Gen might have his plans but unfortunately, he died. His plans were forced to stop. Of course, some other lords might have stopped his plans because they didn"t want her to join the inner circle.
It would be impossible to start the infiltration towards the district from the roots. If she had enough time, Ling Lan had the confidence that she would be able to infiltrate the 11th Preserve District. But, she knew that the thing she lacked the most now was time.
Plus, Lord Qian wouldn"t give her the chance to infiltrate into their system. She understood this even though she only met him once.
Since he wouldn"t give her the opportunity, she could take the initiative before they could interfere with her. Ling Lan had never thought of letting go of the initiative.
She lifted her arm and signaled for everyone to a stop when she noticed that they had reached her destination.
Almost all the mechas behind her stopped abruptly in mid-air.
“Camouflage on the spot,” Ling Lan ordered calmly.
Following her orders, all the mechas disappeared and started looking for their hiding spots.
Ling Lan, Zhao Jun, and Luo Lang stepped out of their c.o.c.kpits. As they landed on the floor, the chameleon systems on the mechas activated to make them disappear on the spot.
