Chapter 706: Named Super Mecha Clan?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ling Xiao made a smart decision and immediately shut up after he heard what Ling Lan said. Seemed like his daughter had made up her mind. He should start thinking about how he could help his daughter. Ling Xiao felt his head hurt. How can he let 250 Mecha Clan own a starship lawfully?

It is hard to be a good father. Ling Xiao sighed.

Ling Xiao being a first time father wasn’t very experienced so he thought making his daughter happy was what a good father should do. If Ling Lan was an obedient girl, he would not have such a hard time. Heaven grants hardships after it grants a man with great responsibility... cough, cough. He could only say that heaven liked him too much so it gave him a daughter who kept tormenting him so that he could display his ability as a loving father to the fullest...

Ling Lan and her team only inspected the creature for a moment before continuing their journey. After some time, they heard the sound of fighting.

“There is a battle going on ahead.” Qi Long’s eyes lit up. He loved fighting.

Ling Lan raised her hand and everyone hastened their pace. After they walked out of the forest, they arrived at a flat land. There were many mecha operators fighting with the ant-like creatures.

“We are the Courage God Ace Mecha Clan. Which division are you from?” A loud voice rang in the air. A mecha operator who was fighting moved away from the battle and came over to question Ling Lan.

“Hey, they are from Courage God.” One of the mecha operators from Li Lanfeng’s team was shocked.

“Old Duan, I remember that you are from Courage God.” Li Lanfeng turned his head and quickly recalled where this mecha operator came from.

“That’s right. Team leader, you have a really good memory. I previously am a member of Courage God. I didn’t expect to meet them again.” Old Duan sighed. That year, he left Courage God in despair. He never imagined that one day, he would still be able to operate a mecha and meet his old mecha clan in a mission.

While Li Lanfeng spoke with Old Duan, Qi Long had already replied, “We are 250 Mecha Clan from the 23rd division.”

Some of the mecha operators from Courage God couldn’t help it but turn their heads to look at Ling Lan and her mecha operators. Luckily, they were all capable mecha operators so this loss in focus didn’t affect them much.

The mecha operators from 250 Mecha Clan frowned when they saw this. Old Duan even got angry. Why did this bunch of brats behave like that? They caused him to lose his reputation in front of his regiment commander... although he was a member of 250 Mecha Clan now, he still had strong feelings towards his old mecha clan. He always hoped everything would go well for them.

Every mecha operator had a strong relationship with the mecha clan that practically raised them. This was why mecha clans liked to take in new recruits. They would be much easier to foster a stronger bond with the mecha clan.

“Thank you for your help. This place is dangerous so please retreat immediately.” The regiment commander of Courage God knew that they were the mecha clan who first received the news about the annihilation of Bing Ge. He frowned when he saw how few people there were.

How could 60 people handle all these creatures? 250 Mecha Clan was not an ace mecha clan. He didn’t know why they were able to participate in this mission. The mecha operators from an untitled mecha clans like theirs, probably couldn’t operate their mechas well so how could they even put up a fight against such dangerous creatures? They would only make the situation worse for them.

The regiment commander of Courage God made his decision and hoped that 250 Mecha Clan would not participate in this battle. He asked them to leave the battlefield immediately.

The experienced mecha operators were unhappy when they heard what the regiment commander of Courage God said. How dare he looked down on them.

“F**k, is he looking down on us?” Qi Long instantly shouted in the team channel and instantly ignited everyone’s anger.

On the other hand, Ling Lan remained calm. Before they showcased their abilities, it was normal to be underestimated. However, she had her temper too. She raised her mecha’s right hand and curved two fingers towards battlefield in front of them.

This was a signal for them to attack! The mecha operators had been waiting for this order. They immediately roared and rushed into the battlefield.

The regiment commander of Courage God was furious when he saw the mecha operators from 250 Mecha Clan entering the battlefield recklessly. However, before he could say anything, he was stunned by the capabilities of the mecha operators from 250 Mecha Clan.

At that moment, one of the mecha operators from Courage God finally managed to kill a creature. Before he could catch his breath, four ant-like creatures who saw one of their kind getting killed, pounced at him viciously.

By right, his two comrades by his side should help him to hold back one or two of the creatures. However, the creatures that his comrades were fighting with, seemed to have received some orders and started pestering the mecha operators furiously. His comrades were unable to lend him a helping hand.

No mecha operator could handle so many creatures at once. The mecha operator’s face turned pale. He knew that once the energy of his beam shield ran out, his mecha would become the creatures’ food.

That’s right. These weak-looking creatures ate metal as their food. The tough and durable mecha shell was nothing to these creatures.

The mecha operator remembered how some of his comrades were killed by these creatures when they first confronted them. A chill ran down his spine. Is he going to die here today? He knew that a land clearing mission was a high-risk mission but he never expected himself to be bitten to death.

Just as the mecha operator was feeling hopeless, two beams flew by him. They flew passed his mecha and hit the creatures accurately. Before he could react, he felt a huge force pulling his mecha back. He flew back uncontrollably.

The mecha operator saw a figure flashing by him on the screen. Then, with a flash of white light, a huge sword appeared in front of him. The two remaining creatures which didn’t get hit by the beams were thrown out. Within a blink of an eye, the four creatures that put him in a dire situation were taken care of.

At that moment, the mecha operator slammed onto the ground. He looked at his screen as he laid on the ground and saw some mechas that didn’t belong to Courage God. They appeared in front of his comrades who were having a hard time and lightened their burden.

No, they didn’t just lighten the burden. They managed to kill the creatures with their beam guns and their cold weapons easily. Seemed like these creatures could be killed with cold weapons too. They just didn’t have the skills to do it.

That mecha operator, who was lying on the ground, watched as the mechas wielded their swords and slashed at the creatures. They didn’t use any complicated moves. All they did was stab and slash the creatures but the creatures died. This was how a close-combat mecha operator should perform.

That mecha operator was stunned. He looked at them with envy. He was a close-combat mecha operator too. Close-combat mecha operators should be at the frontline of a battle but in this situation, they were unable to be at the frontline as the creature would just overwhelm with numbers. They even had to resort to using long-range attacks which they were not used to. This affected their performance. Half of their mecha clan were close combat mecha operators so this caused them to be on the losing end during this battle.

250 Mecha Clan only had 60 people but their presence immediately changed the situation.

Some mecha operators from Courage God Ace Mecha Clan were too focused in their fight so they didn’t hear the conversation between their regiment commander and 250 Mecha Clan. They saw the vicious mecha operators beside them and wondered where they came from. Did they belong to a named super ace mecha clan?

They made this guess because these mecha operators were extremely powerful. All of them had the capabilities and the strength of a team leader. Some of them were even as strong as their regiment commander. They would have guessed that they were from one of the special forces but they didn’t see any familiar totem on their mechas.

Since they were not from the special forces, they could only be from a named super ace mecha clan based from their terrifying performance. Moreover, if you looked closely at their equipment, they must be from a named super ace mecha clan. These pieces of equipment were all the most advanced equipment of the Federation. Courage God applied for these pieces of equipment but never managed to get it.

The mecha operators from Courage God looked at the mecha operators from 250 Mecha Clan with envy. In order for a normal mecha clan with a title to become a named super mecha clan, the criteria would be to have many outstanding individuals over subsequent generations who contributed to the Federation. Hence, there were only a few named super mecha clans.

A named super ace mecha clan would enjoy the glory and many benefits. The treatment between a normal ace mecha clan and a named super ace mecha clan were extremely different. A named super ace mecha clan would be granted much more resources and be given the opportunity to recruit better mecha operators.

A name ace mecha clan received many benefits but it was nothing when compared to the treatment given to a named super ace mecha clan. Of course, the special ace mecha squads in the Federation received the best treatment since they were the elites among the elites. Hence, every mecha operator aspire to enter the special ace mecha squads.

However, for now, let’s not talk about the special ace mecha squads. Let’s put our focus on named super ace mecha clans. They were a cut below special ace mecha squads but they still had a special presence among the ace mecha clans.

Named super ace mecha clans were all old mecha clans with rich history. They got this honor after several generations of contributions from their mecha operators. All the mecha operators that came from these mecha clans had better mechas, equipment, and weapons compared to a normal named mecha clan. Their resources were only one grade lower than those given to the special ace mecha squads. Some powerful named super ace mecha clans could be compared to lower end special ace mecha squads.

Special ace mecha squads welcomed all outstanding mecha operators in the Federation. They didn’t belong to any division and were only governed by the Federation itself. On the other hand, named super ace mecha clans rarely take in mecha operators from other divisions. They preferred to groom recruits personally so that they would develop a stronger bond with the mecha clan.

Every division had one or two named ace mecha clans. In actual fact, these named ace mecha clans were the ultimate weapon of the division. If the entire division was to get annihilated for some reason, as long as someone from a named ace mecha clans survived, they could build their division from scratch again and the legacy could continue to pass down.

The mecha operators from Courage God all thought that 250 Mecha Clan was a named ace mecha clan. They respected them but were jealous of them at the same time.

“Regiment commander, are they really just a normal mecha clan?” The adjutant beside the regiment commander of Courage God asked.

“How would I know?” The regiment commander answered angrily. How was he supposed to know that 250 Mecha Clan was such a powerful mecha clan? Did he offend them with his attitude just now?”

“Look, they know the weakness of these creatures. They strike their Achilles heel and don’t waste any energy or time,” the adjutant said with admiration.

“They must have gotten first-hand information from Bing Ge. However, it is still impressive as they managed to use the information to its fullest within such a short time.” The regiment commander of Courage God had to admit that his mecha operators were not as capable or skilled as the mecha operators from 250 Mecha Clan.

He always thought that his mecha operators were not bad but after comparing them to those from 250 Mecha Clan, he could see that there were still some flaws in his mecha operators. Everyone made some mistakes. The regiment commander of Courage God got angrier as time goes by. He wanted to shout at them and remind them to stop embarrassing themselves.
