Chapter 1252 Complete Trust

Sweat formed on Luo Lang and Xie Yi’s foreheads. Their fingers moved a few times but they didn’t dare to pull the trigger.

They were afraid that their predictions were wrong. If they were wrong, Boss might die from their own mistake.

Bang! A white light ray suddenly flew right past them. Luo Lang and Xie Yi panicked as the light zoomed towards Ling Lan.

“Li Lanfeng!” Luo Lang shouted angrily.

Li Lanfeng fired the shot. He aimed it in Ling Lan’s direction.

Just as Luo Lang was to berate Li Lanfeng, the situation on Ling Lan’s side changed. Ling Lan moved agilely and shifted herself to the other side of Lord Jindao, exposing Lord Jindao to the line of fire.

What would you do when you realise someone is sneaking an attack on you during a heated battle? You either dodge it or use your opponent to block it.

Lord Jindao was very confident in himself so when he noticed the incoming beam, he just nonchalantly raised his sword to block it.

At that moment, Ling Lan mecha was still facing away from Lord Jindao. Suddenly, she twisted her hand and aimed her beam sword at Lord Jindao’s cockpit while he was blocking the beam. The angle of her attack was very weird.

Her beam sword was directed to the weakest spot of the cockpit.

When Lord Jindao noticed the snake-like sword, he felt his heart dropping. He quickly ignored the beam, tilted his body and dodged the sword.

Li Lanfeng didn’t relax even when he was successful in his interference. He continued to look for the next opportunity.

“How did you do it? Aren’t you afraid that you might hurt Boss?” Luo Lang asked in astonishment.

Li Lanfeng continued staring intently at his target. He didn’t reply to Luo Lang.

Luo Lang felt that he wasn’t going to get an answer. However, after some time, Li Lanfeng said in a calm tone, “I believe that our commander will be able to put things right even if I’m wrong.”

Luo Lang frowned. He had a bad feeling.

“I was aiming at the commander just now.” Li Lanfeng didn’t make any predictions just now. He just shot at Lord Jindao because he saw him in his beam trajectory. Ling Lan was in the beam trajectory too but he didn’t care. He had complete trust in Ling Lan.

“You…” Luo Lang almost fainted. Li Lanfeng was so irresponsible.

“Reality proved that I’m right.” Li Lanfeng’s reply made Luo Lang speechless.

“You should trust in the commander.” Li Lanfeng reminded them out of goodwill.

As he was speaking, he fired another shot.

Coincidentally, Ling Lan moved when he pulled the trigger. Hence, she didn’t get hit by the beam.

“Luo Lang, I think that Brother Li is right.” Xie Yi noticed this too.

“If you say it’s right, then it is.” Luo Lang had complete trust in Xie Yi too.

They stopped hesitating. Their gaze became resolute as they pulled the trigger of their beam guns while speaking.

Three white light rays flew towards Lord Jindao. They weren’t able to cause much damage to him but it managed to break his concentration. Number Three took the chance to attack Lord Jindao furiously. The cooperation between the four of them allowed them to suppress Lord Jindao.

“Ling Lan, even if you meet someone as strong as you, you need to analyse their mecha piloting too. Just now, if our opponent decided to ignore my attack and take the blow forcefully, he will have an opportunity to counter-attack us. We will be the ones getting suppressed then.” Number Three made use of Li Lanfeng, Luo Lang, and Xie Yi’s disturbance to attack Lord Jindao. Lord Jindao was forced to defend. Yet, Number Three still had the energy to talk to Ling Lan.

“So your attacks are actually just for show?” Ling Lan immediately understood her instructor.

“Yes. My attacks might seem powerful but they wouldn’t be able to hurt him.” Number Three felt a little pity for himself. “The difference between the two mechas is too great. The personal ability of the mecha operator can’t make up for the vast difference. We can only prevent ourselves from getting defeated. Lord Jindao is stunned by my showy attacks. Once he understands what is happening, our advantage will disappear.”

Ling Lan furrowed her brows tightly. She realised the situation was worse than she expected. “How long can you last?”

“You should ask your body how long can last under my control,” Number Three said helplessly.

He was a spiritual entity. As long as their spiritual entity existed, they could fight for many days and nights. However, the human body couldn’t last forever. The stronger their host was, the longer they could take over the body and the longer they could fight.

Of course, their strength was an important factor too. The more powerful they were, the greater the damage to the host’s body. That was why Number Five and Number Nine could take over Ling Lan’s body for a different amount of time. Number Three’s ability was among the top three of the instructors. He was far stronger than Number Five. If Ling Lan’s body was weak, the amount of time he could take over her body would be much shorter.However, no matter how strong Ling Lan’s body was, she couldn’t let Number Three take over it forever. Her body would collapse sooner or later under the possession.

“Tell me how long my body can last.” Ling Lan knew that there was always a price to pay for everything. Life is fair.

“If you don’t want to be hurt, you can last for three minutes and nineteen seconds. If you want me to take over till your last breath, we can go on for four minutes and forty seconds,” Number Three replied.

“I can only elongate the time for less than a minute if I’m willing to get hurt.” Ling Lan frowned. This might not be enough time for the reinforcements to come after Base Nebula managed to contact the headquarters.

“Can we escape?” If they couldn’t win, they could run. Where there was life there was hope. Ling Lan wouldn’t make unnecessary sacrifices.

“If this was (Belief], I would have killed him already. But with this junk, there’s no chance of even escaping.” Number Three sighed in frustration.

This was the most frustrating battle Number Three ever fought. He was able to release the full potential of an imperial mecha, maybe even exceeding its potential a little, but there was still a limit. Imperial mechas couldn’t be compared to god-class mechas. The difference might not be apparent during short battles but if they tried to escape, the god-class mecha would be able to catch up with them easily. No matter how good his mecha piloting was, he couldn’t pilot an imperial mecha move as quickly as a god-class mecha.

This was the limit of an imperial mecha.
