Chapter 1079 Base Nebula!
Han Jijyun must have noticed this too. Li Lanfeng remembered that Han Jijyun pulled Qi Long to the side to have a secret discussion after the meeting.
As for Luo Lang… his calm personality should have told him about it. If Luo Lang knew it, Xie Yi would know this too.
As for the team leader of Team 01, Yang Mingzhi was a sly old fox. He had his own methods so he should have guessed what was happening too. That meant that Liu Furong and Gu Dongyang would know soon too.
His deputy was one of the new team leaders now. These new team leaders should have known about this news too.
The only people who didn’t know this news were the mecha operator and the logisticians below them.
“It looks like you have understood everything.” Ling Lan smiled. It was easy to talk to smart people.
“The time limit of three days was a signal as well as a test.” Li Lanfeng looked at Ling Lan with admiration. This was the person he would follow for the rest of his life.
Ling Lan stood up from the sofa and sat down on her office chair. “If 250 Ace Mecha Clan wants to become stronger, everyone must become stronger first.”
Ling Lan asked again, “Is there anything else?”
Although she was able to resist against Li Lanfeng’s pretty face, it still troubled her. Hence, she wanted to send him off quickly. If she didn’t see the face, she wouldn’t be bothered by it. She had many things to handle so she couldn’t waste time on such entertainment.
She wasn’t feeling guilty. No way!
Li Lanfeng understood Ling Lan well so he knew that she was chasing him away. He took his mask and put it back on his face. Then, he stood up and smiled. “There’s nothing else I want to ask. I only came to ascertain this.”
Li Lanfeng was about to leave but he suddenly thought of something. He asked instantly, “Oh right, who is Ling Yi?”
He appeared puzzled as he continued, “I remember that when Zhao Jun and I left the military academy, there was no such person. Did he come after we left? What is his ident.i.ty? Why do so many cadets listen to him and follow him to register into our clan?”
“Yes, after you left, he entered the military academy.” Ling Lan was looking at her doc.u.ments seriously when she replied to Li Lanfeng so her reply seemed casual. “He was one of the family servants of the Ling family. He has good potential so we sent him to the academy.”
“So, he is a family servant…” Li Lanfeng looked enlightened and he smiled slightly.
“No, I said he was a family servant,” Ling Lan replied indifferently. “His father sacrificed himself for the Ling family. His last wish was for his son to regain freedom, and I agreed to his request.”
Li Lanfeng frowned slightly. “I don’t think Ling Yi thinks that way.”
“Yes. That’s why he came to 250 Ace Mecha Clan.” Ling Lan frowned and seemed a little troubled.
“I understand.” Li Lanfeng nodded his head and left.
When the door closed, Ling Lan suddenly stopped moving. She was just flipping through the files but now, she stopped.
“Little Four, did I turn bad?” Ling Lan lowered her voice and asked.
“Huh? Why do you think so? You’re still the same as before,” Little Four answered curiously.
“But… I scheme against my comrades.” Ling Lan seemed hurt. Was this the price of maturing? This kind of scheming made her uncomfortable.
‘Scheme? Scheme who?’ Little Four didn’t know what was happening.
“Boss, what are you saying? Why can’t I understand anything?” Little Four always asked when he didn’t know something.
Ling Lan didn’t reply to him. She remained quiet for quite some time. Suddenly, she sighed. “Forget it. Just be yourself.”
She would bear this pain of maturing on her own.
Everyone in 250 Ace Mecha Clan was busy as they welcomed a new week.
Beep! Beep! Beep! The notification sound rang through the entire base.
“What’s happening?” Ling Yi looked up in astonishment. He had gone through a round of a.s.sessment and got accepted into Team 06. He was currently in the training ground undergoing h.e.l.l training.
He was familiar with this notification sound as it was to inform the entire base of a new order. What order was so important that the entire base had to be notified? He had never met such a situation before coming to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. Luckily, he had a good relations.h.i.+p with the veteran soldiers so they kindly told him that this had never happened in 250 Ace Mecha Clan before unless they were going to war.
All the mecha operators instantly stopped their training. They looked at the virtual screens around them and waited for the order.
“Military file 2034-073: The newest order for the 250 Ace Mecha Clan of the 23rd division. The order is as follows: From today onwards, 250 Ace Mecha Clan will be removed from the 23rd division and become an independent mecha clan. They will be directly under the military headquarters. Additionally, 250 Ace Mecha Clan will become a t.i.tled super mecha clan (The t.i.tle will be chosen by the mecha clan. Once it’s finalized, please report to the military).
Please enter Base Nebula on XX/XX/XX. You will be in charge of the safety of the planetary sector there.
The doc.u.ment of this order will be sent to all the various divisions, corps, and government departments.
The military headquarters of the Huaxia Federation, XX/XX/XX.”
“It’s finally here.” All the team leaders and department heads thought in unplanned unison. They felt relieved as they had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Ling Lan, who was sitting in her office, smiled when she saw the order. “This is better than I thought.”
However, why did she find Base Nebula so familiar? Ling Lan was puzzled.
Ling Xiao had been feeling gloomy for the past few months. When he heard this order, he finally gave a relaxed smile. “The third party benefits from the quarrel. Lan’er finally seem to have good luck.”
This result was out of his expectation. At first, he thought that 250 Ace Mecha Clan would be placed in the 1st division. Although Ling Xiao wanted 250 Ace Mecha Clan to be placed in a division under the faction of the First Marshal, he never wanted them to go to the 1st division.
Ling Xiao was confident that he could protect his daughter if she went to another division which belonged to the faction of the First Marshal. However, if she went to the 1st division… He had known the First Marshal for his whole life but he still felt that he didn’t understand the First Marshal entirely.
Ling Xiao didn’t like the feeling of not being in control of something. Hence, he didn’t want Ling Lan to go to the 1st division. However, troubles kept popping up when he tried to stop that from happening. Before he knew it, many people agreed to send 250 Ace Mecha Clan into the 1st division. He tried to turn the tides around but he couldn’t.
“However, Base Nebula is within the planetary sector closest to Caesar. Battles always happen there. Are they trying to indirectly destroy 250 Ace Mecha Clan?” Ling Xiao frowned. His relaxed heart turned heavy again when he thought about that point.
