Chapter 614: Intergalactic Escort Mission!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Yang Mingzhi, Liu Fuquan, Kang Lincheng, Gu Dongyang, and Yao Guoyi.” These were five names on the list. Ling Lan felt that these five people were the strongest mecha operators in 250 Mecha Clan due to their given nicknames. The Regiment Commander’s list of people required for treatment was the norm. Logically, it should be the five of them who should receive treatment first.

As for Yan Mingjun and the other five people, they had become guinea pigs for their experiments by sheer luck. Now that the results of the treatment were out, of course it was going to be used on the people on the list first.

However, it was also because it was so normal that made Ling Lan felt that it was odd. Ling Lan’s fingers tap the armrest while she was guessing what was the Regiment Commander’s real goal. His goal was probably one of these five people on the list. It was just that she couldn’t confirm who it was.

“It seems like I don’t know enough information,” Ling Lan said regrettably. Although Little Four could search through every 250 Mecha Clan mecha operator’s information from birth, there were still some hidden information that wasn’t possible to determine from the data that was given. Ling Lan couldn’t use the information to accurately determine who the Regiment Commander’s target was. In short, it was because she was not given enough time.

“Li Shiyu, you must try your best to treat those on this list!” Although Ling Lan wasn’t sure who the target was, she wouldn’t let Li Shiyu drag out the amount of time required for their treatment because of this reason. This treatment was connected to a mecha operator’s piloting future and mistakes were not an option.

Li Shiyu took the orders and left. Ling Lan thought to herself in the atrium for half an hour by herself. Finally, she gave out a chain of orders. The entire Lingtian team instantly began to move about.

Li Shiyu’s treatment room was in the lowest level of their accommodation building. As Lingtian’s head of logistics, Lin Zhong-qing didn’t hesitate and asked the Regiment Commander for many resources and hardware because of the secret mission given to them by the headquarters. He then built Li Shiyu’s treatment room to perfection.

This made Li Shiyu fully understand the benefits of having a good logistics team. Thinking back to the beginning, he begged here and there to use the laboratory. He also rented it at high prices which made the three of them bankrupt. In the end, he could only sell himself to the headquarters’ hospital and become one of their main physicians. Afterwards, he had the qualifications to use the hospital’s laboratory limitlessly. This also saved the three of them from living a frugal and depressing life...

Thinking back to his depressing history, if only Lin Zhong-qing had entered into the division with them back then. The three of them would not have to go through such hardships. Li Shiyu had tears falling from his eyes.

Of course, if Lin Zhong-qing could only build a treatment for Li Shiyu, to Lin Zhong-qing, it would be considered a display of uselessness. Not only did Lin Zhong-qing perfectly build Li Shiyu’s treatment room, he also help Chang Xinyuan build a small modification research room. From what Lin Zhong-qing told everyone, the research room seemed small, but the cost of building it was not much cheaper than Li Shiyu’s treatment room.

Thus, Lin Zhong-qing hustled the Regiment Commander. Unfortunately, the Regiment Commander, not knowing the details, did not know he was hustled. He believed that it was all for Li Shiyu’s treatment room and mustered up all his connections to apply for it to the higher-ups. He finally managed to satisfy all of Lin Zhong-qing’s demands.

Of course for the Regiment Commander, he only had to waste some time to think and give out demands. These supplies weren’t coming out of his own pocket so he didn’t care. Also, if Li Shiyu successfully cured these mecha operators and made them able to return to the battlefield, as the Regiment Commander, he would also be given credit. He would of course not reject this situation where someone else could take the fall if there was a mistake and benefit him if it went well. These many reasons he actually let Lin Zhong-qing have his own way.

However, as the five individuals began living in Lingtian Battle Team’s accommodations, Lingtian Battle Team’s members used it to their advantage to get close to the five of them every single day.

Once, the Regiment Commander went to the treatment room to see the progress of the treatment. While he was there, he discovered that the five mecha operators were talking and laughing with Lingtian’s members. Even the depressed and indifferent Yang Mingzhi was talking and smiling with them. The Regiment Commander immediately realized that he had made a poor decision.

One day, Ling Lan received a notification from the Regiment Commander and went to the Regiment Commander. After returning, she saw Li Lanfeng and Han Jijyun standing in front of her door.

Ling Lan led them into her room. The three of them sat on the sofa in the living room.

“What’s up?” Ling Lan was a bit curious since it was rare for both of them to come together at the same.

“We just received word that the Regiment Commander had messaged you to go to him. We thought about it and decided that we should make a move too,” Han Jijyun said as he looked at Li Lanfeng.

“Looks like you guys have guessed it,” Ling Lan lips curled. She didn’t think that the Regiment Commander’s patience was this poor and already made a move.

“Us being here gets in his way. I predict that he will find an excuse to get us transferred out of here,” Li Lanfeng smiled faintly.

Ling Lan didn’t answer. She immediately told them the mission the Regiment Commander had given her.

“It’s a good plan,” Han Jijyun sighed. “Very well thought out. Even if we know that he wants to send us away, we wouldn’t be able to refuse the orders for a transfer.”

“Who knew that the Regiment Commander would actually find such an interesting assignment for us,” Li Lanfeng smiled bitterly. “An intergalactic escorting mission. Even if it was the lowest level, level E escorting missions, it would still require the new recruits to be in their fourth year. Looks like the Regiment Commander fiddled with the rules.” Back then, Li Lanfeng had already had a taste of this hardship. In his second year he was forced to take a similar assignment and Zhao Jun almost lost his life for it.

“That’s probably not the case. The protection period of the new recruits is meant for the new recruits without official battle teams (temporary members are also categorized as new recruits). Only they are able to receive protection,” Ling Lan explained. “When I activated our battle team and when you guys activated your totems, we were no longer considered ‘new recruits’. The Regiment Commander doesn’t need to fiddle with anything. As long as he handed an application to the headquarters to make us, Lingtian, to go on the battlefield, the mainframe would automatically arrange the details of an assignment for us.

“Who knows what level the escort mission will be, I hope it’s not too difficult.” After saying this, Li Lanfeng couldn’t help but shake his head. He knew that he was expecting too much. With Lingtian Battle Team’s strength of seven ace operators, the easy escort missions would not given to them.

“Captain, is there a limit of how many people for this mission?” Han Jijyun asked.

“There is. I need a six-man battle team, thus I will take Zhao Jun, Lanfeng, Qi Long, Li Yingjie and Lin Zhong-qing,” Ling Lan thought for a second and said.

Han Jijyun was confused for a second then immediately realized it, “Flush them out?”

“Yes. I will take the three strongest people with me. Anyone whose smart enough would know what to do,” Ling Lan’s expression became cold. In the past month of so, Ling knew more or less the personality of their Regiment Commander. She didn’t want her time to be wasted on scheming against each other. She wanted to use the fastest method to resolve this troublesome issue.

Of course, if the Regiment Commander could control his ego and just continue to be 250 Mecha Clan’s Regiment Commander, Ling Lan wouldn’t mind continuing to have a harmonious relationship with him.

Han Jijyun clearly knew this arrangement was the most appropriate, but he still couldn’t let go and said, “Sadly, I can’t go with you Boss.” Han Jijyun knew that following Ling Lan would be very fun-filled experience.

“It’s not easy for you guys here either. I hope that when I come back, I’ll hear good news from you,” Ling Lan said cheerfully.

For an opponent like the Regiment Commander commander’s level, Ling Lan wasn’t interested in playing with him. However, she didn’t mind to let Han Jijyun, Luo Lang and Xie Yi to play around with him for a bit. She will just take it as training for her members.
