317: Destruction!
Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr

“Adjust mecha settings for outer space.” Ling Lan rapidly changed the settings on her mecha, not forgetting to remind her companions at the same time.

“Yes, Boss!” At this time, everyone knew the situation was urgent so they did not chatter unnecessarily, calmly following Ling Lan’s instructions. Very soon, the team had all set their mecha to outer space mecha mode. Receiving the OK from all her team members, Ling Lan abruptly pulled out Regretless.

Behind her, [No Mecha Unrepaired] saw this familiar weapon in Ling Lan’s hands and a complicated surge of emotion rose within his heart. This was the weapon which had almost ended his military academy life, but it was also this weapon which had brought him to this bunch of great friends. Even as he was proud of himself, he was also grateful for the trust [Lingtian First-String] had in him.

Ling Lan’s original plan was very good — let Little Four invade the mainframe of this transport ship and open it automatically. But unexpectedly, after the appearance of the magnetic storm, whether out of panic or another motive, some unknown bastard had actually put the hold doors in lockdown. In other words, it was no longer possible to use the starship’s automatic system to open these doors — only violence would do.

“They want to destroy the hold doors and kill us all.” One of those mecha who had broken their secured seats, only to regret it and blame Ling Lan’s team for their rashness, saw this action of Ling Lan’s and put old grudges and new alarm together. He quickly opened the public comms and yelled out to all the mecha operators present.

This cry caused all the eyes of the mecha present to turn to Ling Lan’s party. Seeing that they were indeed planning to destroy the hold doors, the mecha were instantly livid. Right now, the transport ship was travelling swiftly. Breaking the hold doors would undoubtedly disrupt the movement of the transport ship and may even create wild air flow in the hold and threaten the operators’ safety.

No one would be willing to see their safety threatened by another. This action of Ling Lan’s undoubtedly raised the ire of the crowd — all of the mecha that could move turned with furious faces and began gathering around Ling Lan, looking like they were about to rip this intermediate mecha to shreds.

“Anyone who dares disturb me, kill without mercy.” Ling Lan did not even turn her head, but Little Four had already transmitted everything that was happening in the hold faithfully into her mind. The corners of Ling Lan’s lips turned up into a subtle cruel smile as she coldly issued this bloody order.

For the sake of her team’s survival, she did not care about doing some brutal and inhumane things to these people who wanted to stop her. At this time, the blood-soaked killing intent she had gained through the endless killing simulations within the learning space burst forth.

Everyone on her team sensed Ling Lan’s endless killing intent, and the eight of them instinctively lifted the weapons in their hands and directed them at the mecha headed for them. With that, the tension grew between the two sides — it seemed like a great battle was about to commence.

“Who’d have thought that just a handful of advanced mecha would dare to fight against everyone in this hold? How audacious.” A cold harrumph rang out from a corner, and then a special-class mecha could be seen walking out.

Qi Long could not help but scoff and then stand out. He was the second strongest on the team — with Boss focused on destroying the hold doors, this opponent could only fall to him. He did not feel afraid but was instead feeling rather exhilarated. He had in fact long wanted to try fighting a round with a special-class operator, just to see how much distance there was between him and them.
