It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future - Chapter 1051
Chapter 1051: Choice!
Even if Li Lanfeng didn’t say that, the mecha operators wouldn’t question the authenticity of the list, as there were some familiar names on the list. These people used to have a glorious past.
Everyone’s heart dropped. Since the other party gave them the list and allowed them to choose their opponents, it meant that what they said might be true. But, they were unwilling to just give up like this, maybe they were just putting up an act to trick them. They still hoped that the other party was trying to scheme against them. This might all just be an act from the start. They might not lose this
bet.
Should they take the bet? The mecha operators looked at each other. They were hesitant.
The senior colonels at the back observed the team leaders’ expressions carefully. They wanted to find a crack in their expressions but there was none. Everyone was confident. The three people who looked as though they weren’t good at disguising themselves looked confident too. They were the rash Zhao Jun, the humble Qi Long, and the hot-tempered Li Yingjie.
Were they speaking the truth?
These mecha operators only joined for two months. Although they had tried to collect information about 250 Ace Mecha Clan, the people from 250 Ace Mecha Clan were already guarding against them from the moment they entered. Hence, they couldn’t get any useful information.
Obviously, the innocent Luo Lang was dragged off the scene by Li Lanfeng and others. They had to thank the face Luo Lang had (They were grateful that Luo Chao could put up an act, not like Luo Lang who would show everything he was feeling on his face.) Then, they pushed Zhao Jun and Qi Long out into the open. These two people were actually really good at tricking people with their outer facade.
Oh, what about Li Yingjie? Actually, he was forgotten by everyone, including his two elder cousin brothers.
Poor Li Yingjie. He was ignored just like this. Fortunately, he didn’t know this. He even felt good about himself.
‘Haha, only a stupid person like Luo Lang needs to hide. I’m a smart person. I don’t need to hide.’ He thought as he puffed up his chest in front of the crowd with a confident expression on his face.
Anyways, Qi Long, Zhao Jun, and Li Yingjie were the three people whom the mecha operators felt they had complete grasp of. The people they were scared of were Li Lanfeng and Yang Mingzhi. One was an experienced sly old fox while the other was an unpredictable newbie who they knew nothing about.
As for the other people, they didn’t stand out like these two people. This impression was something Li Lanfeng and the others wanted to create.
Since the senior colonels didn’t see what they wanted to see, they started frowning. They lowered their heads and discussed among themselves.
“Why is everyone so quiet now? You don’t dare to make a choice?” Li Lanfeng’s smile disappeared when he noticed the crowd turned silent. He said coldly, “No one has any objections? If that’s the case, go back to where you all come from.”
There were two meanings behind Li Lanfeng’s words. The mecha operators’ expressions changed. Some people were indignant.
“Colonel Li, we are just discussing who to choose. Aren’t you a little impatient?” One of the senior colonels at the back narrowed his eyes and said.
“Yes, we’re discussing who to choose. Why are you in a hurry?” The other mecha operators agreed with the senior colonel.
“Are you afraid?” One of the colonels sneered at him.
“What is so difficult about choosing a person?” Li Lanfeng smiled at the crowd. Then, he turned serious and said, “Our time is precious. It shouldn’t be wasted here.” He was telling the new mecha operators that they were just a waste of time.
The mecha operators were furious. Even the calm senior colonels at the back felt like punching Li Lanfeng in the face, but they couldn’t do it even if they wanted to as his position in the clan was higher than them even though they were one rank above him. They gritted their teeth in frustration.
“Sorry to trouble you then.” The senior colonel at the back stared at Li Lanfeng. He wanted to embarrass this arrogant Colonel Li. He didn’t believe that the ten team leaders of 250 Ace Mecha Clan learned all the skills of a logistician.
The senior colonel didn’t stop after he chose Li Lanfeng. He looked at Yang Mingzhi and said respectfully, “And, we would like Major General Yang to prove it too.”
That’s right. After some discussion, they felt that the team members might have learned all the skills but the team leaders might not. The two team leaders they chose were the ones whom they thought had the least possibility of learning all the skills.
Yang Mingzhi was the only major general of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He used to be a member of the South Stars. Before he entered the 250 Ace Mecha Clan, he had enjoyed the same treatment as a super ace mecha master. They didn’t believe that he was willing to lower his status and learn the skills of a logistician.
Li Lanfeng was the adviser of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He was the person Regiment Commander Lin trusted the most. After Regiment Commander Ling stopped being their regiment commander, he was put in charge of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. (This was not true. If Li Lanfeng made a decision that harmed Ling Lan or 250 Ace Mecha Clan, the other team leaders and the heads of the various departments would stop him.) They didn’t believe that a person who had control of an entire mecha clan was willing to lower himself to learn the skills of a logistician.
Since they chose these two people, there was no point in choosing other people too.
The leader of the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee looked at the senior colonel in surprise. His choice was made through educated guesses. These mecha operators didn’t act rashly. They put many thoughts into their actions.
“Haha, it’s going to be fun.” Zhao Jun couldn’t help but laugh. He didn’t know if he should pity them. Why did they choose these two people?
When Ling Lan gave the order that the mecha operators must learn the skills of a logistician to take care of themselves, Li Lanfeng was the one who pushed himself to learn the skills the most. As a person who wanted to get closer to Ling Lan, he would never drag Ling Lan down. Hence, he tried his best and was the best in everything. If Li Lanfeng claimed that he was number two, no one would say that he was number one.
As for Yang Mingzhi, he was a strict person even to himself. He wouldn’t allow himself to make any mistakes in this area. Plus, he felt that Ling Lan’s decision was a reasonable one. He was used to giving his best in everything so he almost perfected all the skills of a logistician too. If Li Lanfeng wasn’t here, Yang Mingzhi would take the number one position.
