It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future - Chapter 1127
Chapter 1127: Survivor!
When the last enemy was killed, every mecha operator started clearing up the battlefield. All the team leaders brought their team members to different areas and started to camouflage themselves. They disappeared from the screen.
“The chameleon system.” The people at the base shouted excitedly when they saw close to 2000 mechas disappearing into the vast space.
The chameleon system was able to camouflage the mechas to their surroundings. It was the perfect assasination system. However, this system was expensive and difficult to produce. Only those mechas with special mission would require to have such a system installed. Other types of mechas had no affinity with this system.
The more powerful the titled super mecha clan was, the better their equipment they had. It was said that only the top ten legendary mecha clans in the Federation had such a system installed in all their ace mechas. Moreover, only these mecha clans would have the right to own such powerful mechas too.
Of course, these were all just rumours. No one knew if they were true. They thought that they would only be able to see such an ambush in their dreams. Yet, it was happening right in front of their eyes.
‘Is Lingtian actually a legendary mecha clan in disguise?’ Almost everyone thought about this possibility.
They continued staring at the screen in anticipation even though they didn’t know why Lingtian suddenly hid.
Just like that, the screen remained empty for three minutes. Only some broken ruins of mechas flew past the screen once in a while.
Just as the soldiers at the base thought that their eyes were going to roll out from their skulls, they suddenly saw numerous mechas appearing from the other end of the screen.
“It’s Caesar.” The hearts of all the audience started pounding furiously. From the small dots on the screen, they could tell that there were more mechas than the last battle. Lingtian had just ended a battle. Would they be able to handle another frightening attack?
If the two parties collided, Lingtian would be the one being surrounded.
The tides of war had now changed. Before this, Lingtian surrounded the Knight Ace Mecha Clan. Now, they were the ones in a predicament.
By now, all the soldiers in the base understood why the mecha operators of Lingtian activated their chameleon system.
Finally, the two mecha clans from Caesar entered the area where the battle happened a moment ago. They were shocked to see the ruins of Caesar mechas floating in the empty space.
“Knight Ace Mecha Clan didn’t manage to last until our arrival?” One of the regiment commanders was flabbergasted.
“The battle should have just ended,” another regiment commander looked at the spiking thermal radar and said
“How long approximately?” These two regiment commanders had worked together many times so they knew what each other’s abilities were. They trusted each other deeply.
“Not more than ten minutes ago.” The regiment commander replied after analyzing the thermal radar.
“They’re lucky. They left before we came,” the regiment commander who spoke first said with frustration. “Roland, do you think Knights gave up resisting and were taken as prisoners or were they…”
He wasn’t able to say the word ‘annihilated’.
“I hope that they were taken as prisoners, Doren,” Roland replied.
“Why?” Doren was puzzled.
“That means that we won’t be in danger. The other party must have retreated since they have so many prisoners. But, if they really got… we must run away now.” Roland was serious.
If Lingtian Mecha Clan was able to defeat the Knight Ace Mecha Clan within such a short time, they must be really powerful. Not a single mecha was able to escape, including their regiment commander who was chosen as one of hundred mecha operators with the highest potential to advance to god-class.
They were already not as strong as the Knight Ace Mecha Clan. If they remained behind, what results could they achieve?
Regiment Commander Doren was thinking about the same thing. He shivered. “Shall we retreat?”
This place was too quiet. It scared him.
“Since we’re here, we need to search carefully to check if there are any survivors. If not, we will be treated as cowards when we go back.” Roland didn’t expect this mission to be so troublesome. He thought that they were only here to reinforce the Knight Ace Mecha Clan but instead, they were here to collect their corpses.
“Okay. Let’s search the area quickly and look for survivors.” Just as Doren was about to give his command, Roland shouted, “Wait.”
Doren got nervous. “What’s wrong?”
“Send three mecha teams to search the area first. If nothing happens to them, we’ll send the rest of our mecha clan.” Roland was a cautious person. Before he understood the entire situation, he would not allow his clan to go forward.
“Okay. I’ll listen to you.” Doren felt that this arrangement was more appropriate too.
Soon, six mecha teams started searching the area in six different directions. Not longer after, they really managed to find survivors.
“Regiment commander, we found survivors.” The search party was extremely excited.
Roland got nervous when he heard this. He quickly asked Doren to be on his guard and asked his men to prepare for battle at any moment.
Then, he ordered the search party to bring the survivors back.
The search party brought the survivors back safely.
“Regiment commander, we found four survivors.” They showed the broken cockpits in their hands. They said, “However, we have too few people. We can’t go deeper. There should be more survivors deeper in.”
Roland grabbed his giant sword tightly, but his tone remained calm as he replied, “Team 45 will be in charge of searching for survivors. You all will follow me.”
“Yes.” The search party left again.
This happened a couple more times, and finally around ten survivors were found in total. However, since the search party was very small, they only managed to search a small portion of the battlefield.
“Roland, we can’t continue like this. It will take more than half a day to search the entire battlefield. This is the Nebula Boundary. We can’t stay here for too long. It’s too dangerous here.” Base Nebula wasn’t far away from them. If the main battle didn’t take most of the attention of Base Nebula, they wouldn’t dare to stay here for so long.
Nothing happened after so many attempts, so Roland started to wonder if he was being too cautious. He thought for a moment and decided to hasten the speed of the search to prevent any changes from happening.
Hence, Roland and Doren sent all their mecha operators into the battlefield to search for survivors.
