Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong were secretly happy the last team leader to complete the mission were from Ling Lan"s battle team. They wanted to see if their heartless and vicious regiment commander would treat his men the same way as he treated them.

Ling Lan was not surprised that Li Yingjie was last. When she a.s.signed Li Yingjie as one of the team leaders, she had expected this result.

Ling Lan was not purposely trying to torture Li Yingjie. Li Yingjie had the capability to be a team leader. He has been a leader ever since he was in the Scout Academy. However, he needed to improve his personality and ways of doing things. It would take some time before he gains the recognition from his team members but Ling Lan didn"t have the time to wait for him.

She knew that the war was going to happen soon. There was not much time left. Hence, she decided to use the most extreme methods to train her mecha clan members the moment she has the chance too. She must fully control the 250 Mecha Clan as soon as possible so that her comrades could have enough experience and partic.i.p.ate in the war.

Li Yingjie was lacking but Ling Lan believed that as long as he managed to gain the respect of his team members, his team would be on par with the rest of the teams.

After going through thick and thin together, Li Yingjie would definitely gain recognition from his team members. The process might be difficult for him but it would be rewarding in the end.

Of course, Li Yingjie didn"t understand all these currently. He stood in front of Ling Lan with a pale face. He was dead. He knew what Ling Lan was capable of.

Ling Lan looked at Li Yingjie coldly. She didn"t express her disappointment but the emotionless gaze made Li Yingjie worried. Is he useless?

"30 km with weights. Do you need me to remind you?" Ling Lan didn"t question him. She just repeated her order.

"Yes! regiment commander!" Li Yingjie gritted his teeth and saluted. He turned around and said, "Carry the weights now." Then, he ran to the side first and started carrying the weights.

His team members didn"t want to follow him but Ling Lan"s malicious gaze stopped them from complaining. They swallowed their words. They still remembered what happened to the person who didn"t stand at attention. They didn"t want to be the second person to suffer so they obediently followed Li Yingjie.

At that moment, they still had some hope that if they fell in exhaustion, their regiment commander would not force them to complete the 30 km run. This hope prevented them from doing anything overboard.

As Li Yingjie brought his men to carry out the punishment, Ling Lan ordered the other nine teams to carry out the training for the day. There was an uproar. Their training was even harder than the 30 km run with weights. What kind of punishment was that?

Ling Lan"s voice echoed through the training ground, "Don"t worry, after they completed the run, they will still have to complete the training."


Everyone turned silent. Soon, they started talking among themselves again. They knew that if Li Yingjie"s team carried out the training after the run, all of them would die. No one would be able to survive the training. They felt depressed. Was their regiment commander trying to kill some of them using this method so that the new recruits could take over their positions?

The life-or-death situation ignited the flame in their hearts. Their eyes turned firm as anger burned inside them. Although they had given up on themselves, they still had the desire to live. If not, they would be in a coffin now.

Ling Lan wanted to inform the mecha operators in 250 Mecha Clan that as their regiment commander, she could kill them without tainting her hands if she wanted to. She wanted them to know that she didn"t care about their life at all.

Without a doubt, Ling Lan"s actions infuriated them. She touched their baseline. Their unyielding spirit was sparked.

When Yang Mingzhi, Gu Dongyang, and Liu Furong heard what Ling Lan said, this was their first thought too. Was their regiment commander trying to kill them?

They thought that Ling Lan would slowly increase the intensity of the training but reality proved that they were wrong. Ling Lan jumped straight into the most intense training on the first day. Not many people would be able to handle the training. Most of them would probably faint halfway through. In their memory, even the special forces didn"t have such intensive training.

They were just mecha operators who hadn"t been working out for many years. Was their regiment commander trying to create results quickly? Or was he too young so he acted rashly?

If that was the case, it would be a pity. Everything would go to waste. The current situation would be destroyed by his actions. If they guessed correctly, the mecha operators would rebel against their regiment commander soon. All the mecha operators might die in this rebellion if things got out of hand…

Then, the three of them remembered that there was a rule which stated that all soldiers who rebelled could be killed by their superiors without reporting to the higher authorities.

Was this their regiment commander"s plan? Was he trying to kill all the mecha operators using this rule? The three of them felt a chill down their spine as they thought of this possibility. They looked at Ling Lan who was wearing a poker face.

As expected, the mecha operators started rebelling.

"Are you trying to kill us with this training? We won"t accept it," one of the mecha operators shouted angrily.

"Yes. No other mecha clan has such harsh training. This is not normal."

"He is trying to kill us. If we don"t retaliate, we will all die here."

"Resist! We must resist!"

"Rebel! Rebel! Rebel!"

"Rebel!" Close to 200 mecha operators started chanting. This showed how scary Ling Lan"s training was.

"Shut up!" Yang Mingzhi screamed suddenly. He couldn"t let the mecha operators die here. Liu Furong and Gu Dongyang woke up from their thoughts when they heard Yang Mingzhi"s voice and started holding back their team members too.

Ling Lan frowned slightly. She thought that the three of them would just watch the other mecha operators with cold eyes. She never expected them to try and stop their team members. This caught her by surprise.

Although she let them become team leaders, she didn"t think that she was able to win them over. She had beaten Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong up in front of so many people. This was humiliating to them. She was happy if they didn"t create trouble for her.

Ling Lan didn"t know that the three of them were just afraid that she would kill all the rebelling mecha operators. This showed how successful she was at building up her image of a malicious and heartless regiment commander.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

However, the furious mecha operators didn"t appreciate what they were doing. Many of them thought that they had gone to Ling Lan"s side and scolded them too.

A cold voice rose above the ma.s.ses. "You don"t want to train? Sure. All the team leaders, send them to the laboratory." Ling Lan was not afraid of the mecha operators at all. Resisting showed that they still had some fire in them. It was a good thing.

Ling Lan"s words caused an outburst.

"We have received merits. We don"t want to become guinea pigs. If we don"t resist, we will all die. Brothers, charge!" A figure rushed towards Ling Lan.

The attack was so sudden that Qi Long and the other members of Lingtian didn"t notice it. By the time they saw the figure, he was already right in front of Ling Lan.

"You are looking for death!" Ling Lan swung her whip at him.

"Smack!"

The mecha operator flew out and slammed onto the ground. He slid out for a few meters. A blood trail was left behind. After he stopped, the ground below him turned red quickly.

Everyone was shocked by what they saw. Yang Mingzhi rushed forward in despair and felt his pulse. It was gone. The mecha operator was killed by Ling Lan by a single whip.

"He"s dead." Yang Mingzhi moved his mouth and squeezed those two words out forcefully.

"Attacking his superior. He deserves to die." Ling Lan replied calmly. Everyone sucked in their breath. This person was extremely heartless.

This was the first time Ling Lan killed someone in front of them. They dared to retaliate because they felt that their regiment commander would not dare to kill anyone. After all, she didn"t kill the person who offended her on the first day. All she did was beat him up badly.

However, now, they know that their regiment commander really didn"t care about their lives. She just didn"t kill them yesterday because she didn"t have a valid reason to. Once she has one, she would have no more qualms.

"d.a.m.n it. We must take revenge for our brother!" Another mecha operator shouted and rushed towards Ling Lan.

"Smack!" The mecha operator flew out and landed beside his dead comrade. Blood oozed out of his body. He was also dead.

"Attacking your superior. You deserve to die!" Ling Lan used the same reason.

"Let"s kill Ling Lan. If not, we will die anyway. Kill him!" Another voice rang through the training ground. Everyone started shouting.

"Kill him!" Someone followed.

"Kill him!" "Kill him!" "Kill him!" The mecha operators chanted. Ling Lan"s had finally angered all of them.

"So this is how it feels to be a villain. It doesn"t feel good." Ling Lan was depressed. She never wanted to be a villain but she had no choice.

Yang Mingzhi, Gu Dongyang, and Liu Furong saw the angry crowd and knew that it was hopeless now. They stared at Ling Lan with pale faces. Was their regiment commander going to contact the law enforcement department? Were they going to watch their comrades dying in front of their eyes?

"Kill me? Do you all have the capability to?" Ling Lan sneered. The nonchalant look in her eyes was the final straw. Everyone charged at Ling Lan angrily. They couldn"t defeat Ling Lan alone but they could definitely kill her if they attacked together.

Yang Mingzhi, Gu Dongyang, and Liu Furong were shocked. So what if the mecha operators managed to kill Ling Lan? Attacking their superior was an offense that would get them executed. If Ling Lan didn"t die, he would have a valid reason to kill all the mecha operators. There was no way these mecha operators would survive.

They felt despair. Their friends who once achieve many merits were going to be killed by their own people…

"Ice Blockade!" The entire training ground turned into an ice world as soon as a cold voice was heard.

"Domain realm master!" Yang Mingzhi was shocked. The three of them jumped back and used their Qi-Jin power to protect their bodies. They tried to block the domain realm energy.

However, they worried for nothing. Ling Lan"s energy went pa.s.sed them. The mecha operators who led the attack on her turned into ice statues. The expression on their faces froze. They didn"t have the time to react or stop when this happened and were frozen on the spot. All the other mecha operators stopped in their tracks. They didn"t have the courage to act anymore.

The once noisy training ground was dead silent. The mecha operators who escaped the attack stared at Ling Lan frighteningly. The fact that Ling Lan was a domain realm master dashed all hopes they had of resisting. They only had one thought now: They were dead!

Ling Lan looked up and smiled. She knocked the whip against her left palm and said softly, "Why? Team leaders, do you all need me to repeat myself?"

Yang Mingzhi, Liu Furong, and Gu Dongyang regained their senses and shouted at their team members who hadn"t turned into ice statues. They started preparing for the training today. Qi Long and the other team leaders called their team members too.

The mecha operators looked at the real-looking ice statues and shivered in fear. They didn"t dare to say anything. They might die from the training but there was a possibility that they would survive. If they resist, they would definitely die. They knew which option was better.

The mecha operators finally understood what Ling Lan meant when she said the only the strongest can speak.

Everyone started training with their various team leaders. Only the ice statues were left in the training ground.

Ling Lan walked to the two mecha operators who were dead and kicked them. She said indifferently, "They are gone now. You can get up now."

The two mecha operators jumped up. One of them smiled, "Boss, how is our acting?"

"Not bad!" Ling Lan said. She pointed at his face and asked, "Luo Shaoyun, your face looks weird. Also, why was it you two?"

Luo Shaoyun rubbed his face and said pitifully, "We couldn"t control what we change into after we took the Face Changing Agent. Only Yuan Youyun and I turned into 40-years-old men. Everyone else looked too young." He frowned after speaking. It was mentioned that the face they turned into depended on their mental age. Does this mean that Yuan Youyun and his mental age had reached 40 years old?

Yuan Youyun felt depressed too. He thought about the same thing.

Ling Lan guessed their thoughts from their expression and wanted to laugh. Luo Shaoyun and Yuan Youyun were more mature compared to people like Li Jinghong and He Chaoyang. However, she felt that Lin Zhong-qing was the most detailed and mature out of their group. The idea that your changed face reflected your mental age must be fake news.

Ling Lan was a little wrong in her logic. Why must people who are more detailed and mature have a higher mental age?

"Stop feeling depressed. The Face Changing Agent only lasts for a day. You will regain your youthful looks tomorrow. Ask Li Shiyu to come over and collect his patients." Ling Lan consoled them and gave them an order.
