Chapter 919 - It’s Him?

As Qi Yaoyang’s army pushed forward with each victory, more and more soldiers got dispatched from Base 013. Base 013 gradually turned very quiet and peaceful.

After Han Xuya went out for battle, Lady Mei was promoted to the position of the leader of the JMCs.

They didn’t have many things to do so they would chat with each other in their free time in the afternoon. As they started talking, their topic would always stray towards the young and high-ranking officers in 250 Ace Mecha Clan.

“A few of the team leaders are young and capable. It’ll be great if I can get to know some of them.” The JMCs still had the desire to hook a wealthy husband but when they thought of the outstanding young officers, they felt their hearts fluttering.

“Even the head of the logisticians, Major Lin, the head of the medical department, Major Li, and the other deputies are impressive too. Why do you think there are so many capable young officers in 250 Ace Mecha Clan?”

“Look at who their regiment commander is. It’s Regiment Commander Ling. He is the son of General Ling Xiao, the real elite of the elites. He is the only person that can make so many outstanding young officers bow down to him.” One of the JMCs was obviously a fan of Ling Lan. Her eyes were filled with admiration as she complimented Ling Lan endlessly.

“When I heard the commanding officer telling us that he is the son of Ling Xiao and he would bring us home, I felt that I’m willing to accept any outcomes even if he didn’t last until reinforcements came.” Another JMC revealed her true thoughts.

The other JMCs turned silent when they heard this. At that moment, everyone had a similar thought, they would survive along with the base. That was their closest experience with death yet. Fortunately, Commander Ling managed to hold on until reinforcements came. The entire base managed to stand because of Commander Ling’s sacrifice.

“I wonder if there are any repercussions for controlling a god-class mecha. I hope that he’s fine,” another JMC gave a forced smile as she said that. They thought about the dire condition of their commanding officer and didn’t have the heart to chat anymore.

“Commander Ling will be fine,” Lady Mei said firmly.

All the JMCs looked at Lady Mei. They hoped that Lady Mei had some good news for them. Lady Mei had a good relationship with Han Xuya and Han Xuya was the personal guard of Commander Ling, so she would definitely know the condition of Commander Ling.

“He is the regiment commander of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He is the commanding officer of Base 013. He’ll definitely be able to create miracles just like when he said he would bring us home.” Lady Mei didn’t believe that the man who created so many miracles would be defeated by these injuries.

The other JMCs nodded. They prayed and hoped that their commanding officer would heal soon. To all the soldiers of Base 013, Ling Lan’s position in their hearts was even higher than General Ling Xiao’s.

At this moment, two signals suddenly appeared on two of the control panels.

Two JMCs hurriedly answered the call. They heard unfamiliar voices requesting to enter the base. “Tang Ningyu from the Flying Dragon Special Forces would like to enter Base 013 for treatment.”

“Mu Chaoran from the Flying Dragon Special Forces would like to enter Base 013 for treatment.”

The JMCs didn’t let them in easily just because they were from the Flying Dragon Special Forces. They thoroughly checked their identity before letting these two mecha operators in.

The medical department received the news for an emergency treatment so they hurriedly rushed to the mecha hold and waited for the two mecha operators.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran got down from their mechas. They took off their helmets and revealed their pale faces. Blood dripped down their mouths. The medics did the routine examination of their bodies and realized that they were suffering from some internal injuries. They quickly sent them to the healing pods in the treatment center.

In the middle of the night, when there was no one else in the treatment center, two healing pods suddenly opened.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran slowly sat up from their healing pods and looked at each other knowingly.

“It seems like you want to find an answer too,” Tang Ningyu said.

“I’m not able to give up until I see Ling Lan.” Because of various reasons, they were unable to see Ling Lan before they left the Base 013. Mu Chaoran looked at Tang Ningyu and gave an evil smile. “You have the same idea, right?”.

Tang Ningyu didn’t reply to him. Mu Chaoran wasn’t expecting Tang Ningyu to reply too. He understood Tang Ningyu just like how Tang Ningyu understood him. That was why they made similar decisions. They used their injuries as a reason to go back to Base 013 to find an answer.

The two of them disappeared from their treatment room and appeared in front of Ling Lan’s treatment room in the next second.

Tang Ningyu took out an object that looked like a button and stuck it on the door. The object shone for a few seconds and the door opened itself. The two of them sneaked inside quickly before the door closed itself automatically. The second before it closed, Tang Ningyu hooked his finger and the shining object landed on his palm lightly, leaving no traces behind. It was as though the door had never been opened.

Li Lanfeng was in his accommodation and self-reflecting on his action earlier on the day. Suddenly, he sat up from his bed with killing intent beaming out of his eyes. In the next moment, he disappeared.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran entered Ling Lan’s treatment room. There was only one healing pod in the treatment room. They were stunned when they saw the healing pod.

A round object laid on top of the healing pod. It was sleeping soundly. It didn’t seem to notice the two unwelcome guests.

“Little White!” Mu Chaoran’s gaze was complex. He didn’t dare to move closer. He didn’t know if he should be afraid of the truth.

Tang Ningyu clenched his fist tightly. His heart palpitated quickly and his blood rushed through his body.

‘Is it him?’

Mu Chaoran took a deep breath. Then, he looked at Tang Ningyu in the eyes and nodded.

They pretended to be calm as they took their first step and arrived beside the healing pod.

Little White suddenly felt something dangerous approaching it. It opened its eyes instantly and saw two people that shouldn’t be here.

“Squeak!” Little White screamed in shock. It was just having a little nap. How did these two people appear?

“Little White, is your master inside?” Mu Chaoran looked at Little White with anticipation. He hoped to sense something from Little White’s expression.

Little White looked at Mu Chaoran with innocent eyes as though it didn’t understand what he was saying. ‘Damn it. There is no way I’m going to tell you anything about my master! My master will kill me if I do!
