Chapter 670: Kill Someone?
“Useless!” Luo Lang shouted in anger as he gritted his teeth. His face turned red in anger and his eyes were bloodshot.
“We can only help in their treatment. They have the right to give up if they want to,” Xie Yi frowned as he replied. They were just recruits of the 250 Mecha Clan. At the same time, their rank was the lowest among the mecha operators. It would be hard to have the veterans respect them.
“Hmph, since they want to remain as rubbish, let them be.” Luo Lang didn’t want to continue this arduous and fruitless job anyway. The 250 Mecha Clan was not their responsibility anyway.
Luo Lang pulled Xie Yi up and asked the other members of Lingtian to leave the training ground. They were prepared to let these mecha operators fend for themselves.“I will give you all three minutes to get up!” A cold voice echoed through the training ground.
Luo Lang and Xie Yi turned their heads. Ling Lan had appeared on the training ground. She wore a military uniform that didn’t have any crease on it. The major epaulet replaced his senior captain epaulet. A cold aura exuded from her body. The temperature in the training ground seemed to have decreased.
“Boss!” The members of Lingtian shouted in unison.
“F**k, how dare you order your grandfather.” One of the mecha operators, who was a Lieutenant Colonel, who was already angered by Luo Lang and the new recruits. They only cooperated with them because their superiors asked them to. However, now, an unfamiliar recruit was ordering them around with a commanding tone. He couldn’t take it anymore and explode in anger.
Once he shouted, the other veterans started shouting too.
The members of Lingtian were furious when they heard these people started mocking their boss. They wanted to charge at them but Ling Lan had already rushed forward and stopped in front of the man who shouted first.
“What did you say just now?” Ling Lan asked coldly.“Haha, are you deaf? Let me repeat it then…” The mecha operator laughed loudly. He sneered at Ling Lan. He couldn’t understand why this recruit wanted to be mocked by him again.
“Grandfather?” Ling Lan looked at him coldly. No one dared to claim to be her grandfather. Anyone who wanted to be Ling Xiao’s father was looking for death!
“Hah, good grandson!” The mecha operator didn’t sense the danger and replied to her.
“Boom!” Ling Lan kicked the mecha operator into the air. The huge force caused the mecha operator to vomit blood in the air. He slammed into the ground and slid for ten meters before stopping.
A figure suddenly appeared near the mecha operator. Ling Lan stepped on the mecha operator’s head. Her eyes were filled with malicious intent. She said dangerously, “Since you really want to die, I will satisfy you.” She exerted force on her right foot. The mecha operator’s head slammed into the ground. Blood came out of his nose, mouth, eyes, and ears. His expression turned hideous. Ling Lan’s viciousness frightened all the mecha operators. They looked at her with fear. The entire training ground turned silent. If a leaf fell down right now, it would be heard.
“You… kill… a lieutenant… colonel… military court!” The mecha operator wanted to struggle but a huge force of presence prevented him from moving. He could feel her killing intent. He felt that he would be killed by her. No, he didn’t want to die. But his strong desire to live caused him to continue struggling. After much effort, he finally managed to spit out these words.
“You? A useless piece of trash like you? Do you really think that the military would do anything if I killed you?” Ling Lan smiled coldly. “They might thank me instead for clearing the people who are wasting their money and space.”
“A useless trash like you has no rights.” Ling Lan smiled dangerously as she scanned the mecha operators around her. Her words pierced right into their hearts.
“Regiment commander… will not… let you go,” The mecha operator said helplessly. The regiment commander whom they didn’t care about became his only hope.
“Regiment commander? Let me go?” Ling Lan sneered. “Hah, I forgot to tell you all that from today onwards, I will be the Regiment Commander of the 250 Mecha Clan. Hence, I have the power…”
The mecha operators felt their hearts dropped. Were they all going to die today?
At that moment, Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong, who rarely came to the training ground, frowned when they heard Ling Lan’s words.
Yang Mingzhi lowered his voice and asked, “Why did their captain become like this?”
Liu Furong shook his head. “He was just cold last time. I have never sensed such a strong killing intent from him before. Did something happen to him during his mission?” He was worried that the young man was affected mentally just like them.
Yang Mingzhi thought for a moment. “The mission should have been completed. He probably doesn’t have any psychological trauma too. If not, he would not rise in rank and become the Regiment Commander of 250 Mecha Clan.
“Did the staff officer department make a mistake? Why would they let a recruit be the Regiment Commander of 250 Mecha Clan?” Liu Furong couldn’t understand the decision.
“They probably want to reorganize 250 so they used a new method,” Yang Mingzhi had a different viewpoint.
“What is it?”
“Since the previous methods couldn’t deal with us, they let a recruit to try it out. He is new so he is not afraid of anything.” Yang Mingzhi understood why the staff officer department made this decision. There was another merit for choosing a recruit. A recruit had much spirit and would do anything to get results.
“But this Ling Lan’s killing intent is too strong. Is he really planning to kill to get what he wants?” Liu Furong asked uncertainly.
This was what Yang Mingzhi was afraid of. The things that the regiment commander was doing made him feel that it was what he intended to do.
Yang Mingzhi gritted his teeth. “No matter what, we cannot let him kill anyone.” He would not allow these mecha operators, who became useless due to unfortunate circumstances, die at the hands of their own people. This was a tragedy and humiliation for them. He couldn’t let this happen.
“Good. If something amiss happens, let’s act together.” Liu Furong had the same thought.
In the middle of the training ground, Ling Lan leaned forward and stared directly at his helpless eyes. “You humiliated your superior. This mistake is enough for you to die.”
“So, please stop wasting food. Rubbish like you should just die!” Ling Lan narrowed her eyes and lifted her right foot. If she stepped on the soldier’s head again, he would definitely die.
Everyone looked at Ling Lan frighteningly. They didn’t expect their new regiment commander to actually want to kill someone. There was no pity or remorse on his young face. The indifference on his face made them shiver.
This is bad! Liu Furong and Yang Mingzhi exclaimed in their minds. They disappeared from their original positions and appeared beside Ling Lan.
“Boom!” A loud explosion occurred. Two legs appeared on the mecha operator’s head and prevented Ling Lan’s foot from touching him.
The different forces created invisible blades in the air. A few wounds appeared on the mecha operator’s face. However, he couldn’t mind the pain right now. He was elated that he was alive. It felt good to be alive.
“It’s the North and South Stars. We want Yang Mingzhi to be our regiment commander. Little brat, we don’t recognize you as our regiment commander. Get out of here.” Since Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong had acted, the mecha operator woke up from his stupor and started shouting again.
How could they let a potential murderer be their regiment commander? They still wanted to live. They didn’t want to suddenly die at the hands of their regiment commander.
“Yes, get out of this place. We want Yang Mingzhi as our regiment commander!” The other mecha operators regained their senses too. Compared to the scary Ling Lan, Yang Mingzhi was a much better option. He was supposed to be their regiment commander at the beginning but he rejected the offer.
Yang Mingzhi knew that things were going out of his control. He just wanted to prevent Ling Lan from killing people. He didn’t want to be the regiment commander. But, after what the mecha operators said, his actions showed that he had a different purpose. They made him seemed as though he wanted to fight for the position of the regiment commander.
“Why? Do you have something against me being the regiment commander?” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and asked.
Yang Mingzhi smiled bitterly. “You are kidding. I just want to stop you from killing someone.”
“What right do you have to stop me?” Ling Lan mocked. “A useless mecha operator? You don’t have the power! A member of the South Stars? Are you one of them?”
The other mecha operators shouted louder at her when they heard what she said. Liu Furong’s expression changed too. Ling Lan’s words denied all the merits and achievements they made in the battlefields during their time.
Yang Mingzhi didn’t reply to her. He just stared at Ling Lan. Her words had angered him.
“Are you angry? Do you think I’m wrong? Let me show you what’s the truth then!” Ling Lan suddenly moved her right foot. A huge force exploded. Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong felt a strong force moving towards them. They couldn’t control themselves and fell back. They had to take three steps back to stabilize themselves.
