Ling Lan came down with her team members . He felt Ling Lan's cold aura . The regiment commander turned to look st Qi Long . He seemed to be in the mid-stage of Qi-Jin . However, he would not be able to become the captain based on his character…
The regiment commander seemed to have found the reason why Qi Long wasn't the captain . He let down some of his vigilance . But, he knew that he still had to observe them to figure out if they were really harmless .
The regiment commander brought them to his office to finish the registration process . Then, he gave them the address of their accommodation . They were not staying in the building which they were at just now . Their accommodation was in another direction . This building only had three levels .
The regiment commander pa.s.sed them a map and reminded them of the meal times . Ling Lan saw that there was still some time before their meal so she decided to bring her members to their dormitory first .
The dormitory was a little far away . They had to walk pa.s.s half the military base in order to reach their dormitory from the canteen . The building where they met the regiment commander was at the center of the military base . It was close to all the important places in the base and had enough empty rooms to house them .
Seemed like their regiment commander was guarding against them . The 250 Mecha Clan was a forsaken team but the waters inside were deep .
When they reached their dormitory, everyone was stunned .
“This is the place that we will be staying at?” An old and dusty gate welcomed them . The path and sentry tower was covered with a layer of dust too . There were even broken stones and tiles thrown around the sides of the gate . It looked as though this place hadn't been used since it was built .
“Yes,” Ling Lan compared the map and told her team members the painful truth .
Li Lanfeng walked up and pushed opened a small window on the door . A screen was revealed . He pressed the on b.u.t.ton and the screen lit up .
“There is electricity . It is not too bad . ” Li Lanfeng said, “What is the pa.s.scode?”
Han Jijyun thought about something and replied, “Li Lanfeng, what is your pa.s.scode?” When they were distributing their rooms, each of them were given a pa.s.scode . They thought that it was the pa.s.scode to their rooms but from the looks of it, it might not be the case .
“9977198 . ” Li Lanfeng was enlightened . He had a strong spiritual power causing him to a photographic memory .
“Mine is the same,” Han Jijyun immediately replied .
“The pa.s.scode that we received is not our room pa.s.scode but the pa.s.scode for the main gate . ” Li Lanfeng entered the numbers . The door opened .
Everyone walked in and realized that the environment inside was not bad . It was just dusty . Their footprints could be clearly seen on the dusty floor .
The team members started looking around .
“There is a vacuum cleaner here . ” Luo Lang found one vacuum cleaner .
“There is another one here . ” Lin Zhong-qing found one too .
No others were found . Luo Lang and Lin Zhong-qing took the vacuum cleaners out . Vacuum cleaners were an essential item to the Federation but the ones in the mecha clans were more advanced .
However, pa.s.scodes were needed to operate the vacuum cleaners . No one knew what the pa.s.scodes were .
“Do we need to go the the logistics department and ask them to send someone over?” Luo Lang said in a depressed tone .
“No need,” Han Jijyun and Li Lanfeng replied simultaneously .
Everyone looked at the two of them . Li Lanfeng smiled and signaled for Han Jijyun to explain to them . Han Jijyun went straight to the point . “Use the pa.s.scode for the main gate . ”
Luo Lang didn't understand them but he followed what Han Jiyun said . “Beep . ” The vacuum cleaners got activated and it started cleaning the courtyard .
After they finished tidying the courtyard, they went up the building . By now, they knew that they were the only ones in this building .
There were three levels in the building and 18 rooms that were of different sizes . Everyone discussed and decided to live together on the third level .
As for the other two levels, they would leave it for later use . Since they were the only ones in the building, they took it as their headquarters and wanted to make it as comfortable as they could .
Chang Xinyuan was already prepared to show his true talent . As an outstanding mecha engineer, his expertise was at modification .
Even Li s.h.i.+yu wanted to make one of the rooms his personal laboratory…
As there were many rooms, they did not have to squeeze 6 people in a single room . Of course, people that were close to each other chose to stay together . The only two females, Luo Chao and Han Xuya, stayed together .
Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng stayed together . They lived together in the Nameless Battle Team so they decided to continue to stay together .
Li Yingjie pestered Li s.h.i.+yu and wanted to stay with him . Li s.h.i.+yu was the only person he was familiar with in the entire Lingtian Battle Team . He held onto him tightly . Li s.h.i.+yu decided to bear with him since he was his little brother .
Only Gao Jinyun and his friends decided to live together as six people in a single room . They were used to staying together .
Besides Ling Lan, everyone had companions living with them . No one wanted to stay with Ling Lan . They still wanted to live a few more years . They didn't want to be pressured by Ling Lan's aura everyday .
Why was there an empty building for the Lingtian Battle Team?
In a standard mecha clan, there should be around 1500 mecha operators . Adding in the people from the mecha logistics and the logistics department, there should be a total of 4500 to 5000 people in a mecha clan . A mecha clan needed 2 to 3 logisticians in order for the mecha clan to operate comfortably .
In the 250 Mecha Clan, there were 250 mecha operators but only less than 100 logisticians . Half of them were working in the kitchen so there were only around 50 logisticians repairing the mechas .
This showed that the 250 Mecha Clan was forsaken . The headquarters only wanted to ascertain their basic survival needs .
There was a huge shortage of manpower in the 250 Mecha Clan . Hence, many locations were empty . This allowed the Lingtian Battle Team to have an entire building to themselves . If this was in any other mecha clans, such a situation would never happen .
Everyone activated their small vacuum cleaners in their room and quickly gathered in Ling Lan's room .
Ling Lan's room was the only suite on the third level . It was meant for high ranking officers in a mecha clan .
Ling Lan felt that the 250 Mecha Clan was not as bad as she imagined . At least she didn't need to live with the males…
With the help of the vacuum cleaners, Luo Chao, Han Xuya, and Lin Zhong-qing, her living room was clean and tidy .
Ling Lan sat on her sofa and asked, “What did you all notice along the way?”
Han Jijyun replied first, “The regiment commander is a powerful and ambitious person . He doesn't like us . ” He scanned the living room and continued, “If not, he would not send us here . ”
Li Lanfeng added on . “The 250 Mecha Clan is filled with people who are unable to go on the battlefield anymore . There might be some hidden talents here but on the surface, it is a forsaken mecha clan . For an ambitious person to come here and not welcome our arrival, it means that his motive is on these useless mecha operators . He is afraid that we would interrupt his plans . ”
“Also, there are a few strong auras coming from the building that we were on just now . Our captain should have sensed them . ” Li Lanfeng looked at Ling Lan . They were still getting use to calling Ling Lan their captain since they were in the military now . Sometimes, they would forget and call her boss .
Ling Lan nodded . When Qi Long attacked, she noticed a few strong auras . One of them was just below her so she went down to observe it . However, she seemed to have scared the person . The other three auras were further away but since she already sensed them, she would be able to recognize them if she sensed them again .
“However, since the captain suppressed his strength, the regiment commander will not pay too much attention to him . He will just be on guard against me and Qi Long . ” Qi Long and him didn't suppress their power so they were the two strongest people in the battle team now .
“I think that only Lanfeng gained the interest of the regiment commander . ” Han Jijyun suddenly said, “Lanfeng's gesture caused the regiment commander to lose interest in Qi Long . ” He glanced at Qi Long and smiled . “I didn't expect Qi Long to act so well . ”
Qi Long sn.i.g.g.e.red . “I just had an inspiration and duplicated Li Yingjie's actions . ”
Li Yingjie got angry . “Are you saying that I am an idiot?”
“When you act arrogant, you seem quite stupid,” Qi Long shrugged and replied .
“I want to fight you!” Li Yingjie was furious . He wanted to rush towards Qi Long but suddenly, he felt his body went numb . He fainted onto the sofa .
Li s.h.i.+yu removed a syringe from Li Yingjie's neck calmly . He said, “The world is finally quiet . ”
Those people who knew what was in the syringe s.h.i.+vered in fear . They didn't expect the military doctor to use this thing on his own teammate . That person was his cousin too… Sob, their military doctor is so scary!
