“Lin Zhong-qing!” A cold voice sounded beside Lin Zhong-qing’s ears. Lin Zhong-qing shivered. His face was already pale due to exhaustion but his face turned even paler. It was full of fear. He didn’t dare to make any delays so he shouted immediately, “Here!”

“Li Shiyu!” Li Shiyu’s face turned pale too as his name was called. “Here!”

A few more people were called out too. All the logisticians were called. Lin Zhong-qing’s deputies, Li Jinghong, He Chaoyang, Yuan Youyun, and Luo Shaoyun were all called. Gao Jinyun’s small team was also called too. The five people who laid on the ground exhausted were part of Gao Jinyun’s team. Gao Jinyun and his team members’ physical skills were all not high. Hence, they became logisticians.

When they were ordered to join the long-distance marathon, Gao Jinyun knew that their weak performance during this marathon had angered their regiment commander. He knew that they were dead. The results were just like what he expected.

“Li Lanfeng!” Li Lanfeng’s lips twitched. As expected, Ling Lan was not satisfied with his performance.

“Xie Yi!” Xie Yi’s expression collapsed. He was the last to arrive. He knew that he wouldn’t have a good ending.

“Double your training at night!” Ling Lan finally told everyone their punishment for those people with unsatisfying results.

“Yes!”

Before Chang Xinyuan could give them a smile of pity, he heard his Boss calling his name. “Chang Xinyuan!”

“Here!” Chang Xinyuan quickly replied. He wondered if his smile was too glaring. ‘Did I anger my Boss?”

“Luo Chao and Han Xuya.” Ling Lan looked at the only two ladies at the scene. This long marathon was extremely tiring. Ling Lan was afraid that they would faint so she didn’t ask them to run. They were in charge of being the burdens this time. However, this didn’t mean that she would let them off just because they were females. Ling Lan knew that this was the battlefield. Without absolute strength, they could die at any moment. She would never allow this to happen.

“You three will train with them at night.”

“Ah!”Chang Xinyuan groaned. On the other side, Han Xuya and Luo Chao’s face turned red with excitement. They shouted, “Yes, regiment commander.” They had been waiting for this day for a long time, especially Luo Chao. She clenched her fist tightly and told herself that she must catch up with her Boss.

The person-in-charge of inspecting the convoy was stunned by their behaviors. When he heard Ling Lan’s cold voice, he suddenly regained his senses. He looked over and saw a person with a cold aura standing in front of the door of the bullet-shaped hover car. He only glanced at this person but the person instantly noticed his glance. Her cold eyes turned to him. The person-in-charge felt as though his blood was frozen. His entire body turned cold. He was so frightened he didn’t dare to look at Ling Lan again.

“Second lieutenant?” A cold voice sounded beside him. The voice melted the ice around him and woke him up from his thoughts.

“Yes, regiment commander!” The second lieutenant instinctively greeted Ling Lan as though she was his regiment commander too.

Ling Lan was speechless. ‘What’s wrong with this second lieutenant? Shouldn’t he call me senior officer or lieutenant colonel?’ She was not his regiment commander. However, she didn’t have the time to correct him. She saluted and asked, “Can we go in now?”

“Yes, regiment commander!” The second lieutenant shouted after saluting back at her. Then, he signaled the people behind him to let them in.

Soon, the convoy entered the base. All their mechas were placed inside 250 Ace Mecha Clan’s personal mecha hold. The second lieutenant watched as they went in. After a while, he suddenly remembered that he didn’t ask them where their logisticians were. Also, for some reason, he called the lieutenant colonel ‘regiment commander’ instead.

In the base of Evil Wind Mecha Team, around 30 people were sitting in a meeting room, talking about the 250 Ace Mecha Clan which entered Base 013 recently.

“Leader, I heard that we have a new neighbor. It’s an ace mecha clan.” One of the team members told his leader about the news that had been spreading through their base recently.

“The information I got from Help states that there are only 200 people in that ace mecha clan. They only have enough mecha operators to form a major team like us but they are a mecha clan. Leader, do you think that 250 Ace Mecha Clan has some special background?” A feminine-looking soldier who looked around 30 years old said.

“The Changfeng Ace Mecha Clan that were stationed here in the past was nothing special. Their regiment commander was not even our leader’s match. Yet, they are a titled ace mecha clan.” A team member gave a look of contempt.

“Yes. In the past, I heard that titled ace mecha clans are very powerful. Now, I feel that they are nothing.” This person’s words gained the approval of everyone in the meeting room.

The team leader, who was sitting on the main command’s seat, shook his head instantly. “That is not true. Changfeng Mecha Clan is not a real titled ace mecha clan.” He remembered the words the Regiment Commander of Changfeng Ace Mecha Clan said to him before he left. Those words let him understand how deep the water was in the mecha world.

His mind went back to the day when he had a fight with the Regiment Commander of Changfeng Ace Mecha Clan using their mechas. They were both exhausted but no one was able to win against the other.

“Yan Three, I didn’t expect a mecha operator who came from the grass-roots to be so powerful,” the Regiment Commander of Changfeng Ace Mecha Clan exclaimed.

“Cheng Shu, you are not bad too. As expected of the regiment commander of a titled ace mecha clan.” Yan Three respected Cheng Shu too. He used to be angry at Cheng Shu because he always evaded his invitation to have a fight.

“My mecha clan is not a titled ace mecha clan,” Cheng Shu jeered at himself.

Yan Three was stunned. He knew that only titled mecha clans had a title. Other mecha clans were called by numbers. He asked curiously, “What do you mean?”

Cheng Shu looked at Yan Three. “I’m going to leave Base 013 soon. Before I leave, let me give you a present. I’ll tell you some secrets of the military so that you won’t provoke someone you shouldn’t.”

Yan Three felt his heart being lifted up and he listened attentively.

Cheng Shu sighed. “A real titled ace mecha clan is indeed very powerful. They are not like my mecha clan which is unable to maintain its title. You must learn to look at their rank.

“Ah!” Yan Three exclaimed in surprise. He thought that all titled ace mecha clans were the same. He didn’t know that there were different ranks.
