“Let’s attack him together.” Luo Lang grabbed his huge sword tightly and shouted at Xie Yi.
Both him and Xie Yi were pseudo imperial operators, not fully fledged imperial operators. Their modified mechas had a lower operations requirement to allow them to release 80% of the mecha’s ability. If they were operating real imperial mechas, they wouldn’t be able to unleash half of the mecha’s potential. Thus, they were still unable to fight with imperial operators alone.
They were lucky that Chang Xinyuan and Boss managed to make these modified mechas. It shortened the distance between them and actual imperial operators, allowing them the opportunity to fight with imperial operators to gain experience of how an actual imperial operator should fight.
Just as Luo Lang shouted at him, Xie Yi grabbed his sword too and attacked without any hesitation.
The two young pseudo imperial operators managed to be equal in match with an imperial operator from Twilight. However, as they were still pseudo imperial operators, the leader of the Twilight mecha operators would have a higher chance of winning the fight the longer the fight dragged on.
However, time wasn’t on the team leader’s side. He knew that once the other modified ace mechas killed their opponents, they would come and help their comrades. If that happened, he would have no chance of escaping
The people from the Twilight Empire were ruthless. They were ruthless to their opponents as well as themselves. They advocated the samurai spirit. They were willing to pay any price to complete their mission. The same goes for the leader of the Twilight mecha operators. He decided to fight with his life.
Each stab, each swing of his sword was fatal. Xie Yi and Luo Lang started to waver under the constant pressure the leader exerted. They weren’t prepared to risk their lives like their opponent. After all, they weren’t the ones with nothing to lose.
Thus, the tides of the fight changed. They were now being suppressed by the leader of the Twilight mecha operators, instead of the other way around.
The leader raised his sword up high to execute a devastating chop. Xie Yi and Luo Lang had no choice but to cross their arms above their heads and hope it would be enough to withstand the chop. However, the devastating chop never came. When they opened their eyes to see where the leader was, they saw him retreating swiftly.
They got fooled! Xie Yi and Luo Lang were still too inexperienced. Experienced soldiers would have made plans to prevent their enemies from escaping while defending themselves.
Xie Yi and Luo Lang reacted quickly and chased after the leader of the Twilight mecha operators. However, the leader got further and further away. Just as he was about to leave the Qingri wormhole, a sword slashed at him.
The sword appeared without any warning. The attention of the leader of the Twilight mecha operators was on the two mechas behind him so he was caught off guard. Before he could react, his cockpit was stabbed.
A mecha slowly appeared beside him.
The leader of the Twilight mecha operators didn’t understand why there was another ace mecha hiding here. Did his opponents know that he was going to escape in this direction? That was impossible. He didn’t plan his escape route. It was all instinctive.
It must be a coincidence. Somehow, he chose the path with an ambushing mecha.
“I’m so unlucky.” The leader of the Twilight mecha operators felt regretful as he died.
“Boss.” Luo Lang and Xie Yi shuddered when they saw the mecha.
“Clean up the battlefield,” Ling Lan replied calmly.
“Yes, Boss.” The two of them quickly turned around and rushed back to the battlefield as if there was a monster chasing them.
“Will I eat them? Why did they run away so quickly?” Ling Lan felt frustrated. She knew she had a poker face but that didn’t mean that she was angry. She just didn’t want to destroy her image.
The mecha operators from Lingtian fought even more aggressively once they knew that their commander was on the battlefield. They wanted to show their commander how hardworking they were so that their commander wouldn’t punish them.
The effects were amazing. Within a few minutes, all the mecha operators had finished their opponents. They started cleaning the battlefield.
There were some mecha operators who were injured but none of them died. The cockpits of the modified ace mechas had a better structural integrity so the survival rate of the mecha operators increased drastically. Out of the ten mechas that were destroyed, only two mecha operators were in dire condition. They used Li Shiyu’s life-saving agent to save their last breath before sending them back to Base Nebula.
Lingtian was able to end this battle without losing anyone. This was the result of their hard work. Whether it was the modified ace mechas or the life-saving agent, they were all created by Lingtian. No one had propped them up to this point, it was all due to their hard work.
We mustn’t forget the veteran soldiers who had once given up on themselves. Among the 80 imperial operators and pseudo imperial operators, besides Ling Lan’s childhood friends, most of them were the veteran soldiers from 250 Ace Mecha Clan. The moment they stood up again, they were destined to be different.
Without these veteran soldiers, Lingtian wouldn’t be as powerful as they were now.
After cleaning up the battlefield, a huge transport fleet slowly floated over.
The three major generals inside the transport ships were stunned when they saw the ruins of mechas floating in the vast space.
They were experienced soldiers so they knew that these ruins belonged to imperial mechas from Twilight. They could tell that there were many of them too. If their transport ships met these imperial operators, it would be a crisis for them. They would be lucky if half of them managed to escape.
Fortunately, the Lingtian Independent Army saved them from such disaster. They didn’t know how many casualties Lingtian had but they could tell that they won the battle. If not, they wouldn’t be able to pass this wormhole so smoothly.
“Our head is right. The Lingtian Independent Army has the right to go on this mission.” Major General Xu finally accepted the Lingtian Independent Army.
“Only the ruins of Twilight mechas could be seen.” Major General Qiu was astounded. There should have been casualties on the Federation’s side too but all he saw were damaged Twilight mechas. This was out of his expectation.
