Chapter 1231 Modified Mechas!

“We were lucky to have created Jialan. If we want to create another one of her, the success rate is very low.” Ling Lan wasn’t greedy. Jialan’s appearance was a coincidence. Even Little Four couldn’t understand how she came about.

Jialan was the work of Little Four and Meng Lan. However, Little Four said that if he was to do the same thing again, even with all the data he had recorded, he wasn’t confident he could create another Jialan.

Actually, Jialan was just a bunch of foundational data that experienced a sudden change. Its appearance was accidental. Little Four and Meng Lan didn’t think that they could be as lucky the second time.

“I see.” Li Lanfeng finally understood why it took so long for Jialan to appear after Meng Lan was created. Jialan’s intelligence wasn’t as high as Meng Lan too. Meng Lan could control an entire base and even more while Jialan was only able to control a starship.

The next intelligent entity might only be able to control a mecha. Li Lanfeng felt that the intelligent entities created would get weaker and weaker.

“Boss, shall we send reinforcements? Those two Destruction Devils can’t withstand much longer.” Little Four was agitated. He felt that the Destruction Devils were Boss’s property. They mustn’t be damaged.

Ling Lan looked at the mecha operators who were fighting furiously and then glanced at the two Destruction Devils. Only the Jialan Ship seemed to be having an easy time. This battle proved that the Jialan Ship was powerful enough to tackle an imperial mecha clan.

After getting the data she wanted, Ling Lan nodded and ordered, “Send the imperial operators out.”

The brigade leaders and deputy leaders weren’t the only imperial operators in her army. There were many veteran soldiers who managed to advance to imperial level in this period of time.

Her independent army wasn’t strong enough to apply for imperial mechas on its own from the military. However, with the help of her father and the logistics department of the 23rd division, she still managed to get imperial mechas for all her team leaders.

But, that would only be around 40 imperial mechas. It wasn’t enough to satisfy the needs of the Lingtian Independent Army. Fortunately, they had Chang Xinyuan and Little Four. Chang Xinyuan was a master in modification while Little Four could steal anything he wanted from the virtual world.

They disassembled a few imperial mechas and compared it with the blueprints of imperial mechas. After a few months of experimentation, Chang Xinyuan managed to modify the ace mechas using Ling Lan’s infinite supply of metal and accessories.

Hence, those mechas that looked like ace mechas weren’t actually ace mechas. They had the internal structure and systems of an imperial mecha. Some of their systems were even better than imperial mechas. But, the mechas hadn’t been tested in battle yet.

This battle would be a good opportunity to test the modified mechas.

Ling Lan seemed calm but if you looked carefully, you would notice that her hands were clenched tightly. If the ace mechas were able to fight with imperial mechas on equal grounds, the strength of her army would reach a new height. They would be the rulers of the battlefield.

“Haha, it’s finally our turn to perform,” Xie Yi shouted happily when he heard Ling Lan’s order. He was waiting on the launching port.

“Be careful. You’re just a pseudo imperial operator,” Luo Lang reminded Xie Yi.

“Okay. I’ll be careful.” Xie Yi smiled obediently at Luo Lang’s face on the screen.

Luo Lang felt puzzled.

A few days ago, he heard some brigade members commenting on their leaders. When they spoke of Xie Yi, they said that he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They mentioned that he could probably fight it out with Big Leader Li.

Luo Lang knew that Li Lanfeng was a scheming individual, but Xie Yi had always been positive and vibrant in front of him. He didn’t think that he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing

wa

Was he scheming? He always appeared so idiotic in front of him. Luo Lang felt that Xie Yi was as stupid as him sometimes. That was why Luo Lang didn’t mind hanging around Xie Yi as it made him feel quite secure about his insecurities.

Luo Lang started to feel uncertain about his image of Xie Yi. Since so many people felt that way, there must be some truth to the claim. However, based on his daily interaction with Xie Yi, he just couldn’t picture Xie Yi to be as smart and deceiving as everyone said. For instance, his reply just now was really stupid.

Luo Lang wasn’t someone who liked to think so when he couldn’t find an answer, he just threw the problem to the back of his mind. He hung up the video call after Xie Yi replied to him and waited patiently for the JMC to call him.

When the first modified mecha was ejected out of Base Nebula, it caught the attention of the people fighting

Little Four would only be able to hide Base Nebula if no heat was emitted out of it. Once a mecha was ejected out, the heat produced by its engine was enough to expose them.

The team leader of the Twilight imperial mecha operators heard the alarm in his mecha. He quickly searched the area and found the mechas that had appeared a few kilometres away.

“The mechas are from the Federation. We walked into a trap.” This was his first reaction.

However, when he noticed that there were just around 40 ace mechas, he scoffed. “How arrogant of them. Are they looking down on imperial operators?”

They wouldn’t need much effort to destroy those mechas.

Imperial mechas were stronger than ace mechas but they weren’t invincible like the god-class mechas. If there were many ace mechas, they might be able to destroy an imperial mecha. But, they would need at least five ace mechas to surround an imperial mecha.

He just needed to send a few imperial operators to fight against the approaching ace mechas.

The only thing that worried him was the Destruction Devil. The leader of the Twilight mecha operators could see that Jialan wasn’t a normal Destruction Devil.
