Chapter 504: Despicable?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“There so many monsters among this year’s academy students. We originally thought that Qiao Ting was monstrous. We didn’t that there were actually more. Just looking at their strategies, we know that there’s definitely an impressive individual in there. We just don’t know which military academy they’re from.” Many of the division representatives said this with regret. If they knew exactly which military academy that individual was from, they would able to try tactics to recruit them.

Qiao Ting was indeed very monstrous, but he had already been drafted into the Third Division. The others could only watch, unable to do anything. Now that they saw many exceptional students, these division representatives all began to move about.

The monitoring room was disrupted by the exceptional performance of Ling Lan’s team. In the area between Area S and P of the battle royal, Qiao Ting waited for an hour and finally greeted the people they were going to ally with.

“Who knew that we could actually cooperate for once.” Lin Xiao looked at Qiao Ting, the representative of the First Men’s Military Academy. He thought about the magic of fate.

“I also didn’t think that a commander like yourself isn’t defending his own headquarters, coming here instead to discuss matters of cooperation.” Qiao Ting was also surprised by the representative that the First Co-ed Military Academy had sent. He now really wanted to know how Ling Lan had discussed everything with the Co-ed Military Academy to actually make them put importance on their alliance.

“You came, so it’s no surprise that I came here,” Lin Xiao smiled modestly and said.

“I’m not the commander,” Qiao Ting said, brow raised and expression disapproving.

Lin Xiao felt that he couldn’t follow up with anything after Qiao Ting said those words. In reality, he still hadn’t figured out why Qiao Ting would have given up the position of commander to Ling Lan. Although Ling Lan was indeed very exceptional, Lin Xiao believed Qiao Ting was even more exceptional.

Thus, he laughed and changed the subject, saying, “Why did you use our signal to tell me to come and meet up with you?” Qiao Ting had used the signal that Lin Xiao and Ling Lan had previously set up for communication purposes.

Qiao Ting calmly replied, “We may have a third party joining our alliance.”

Lin Xiao frowned. Just for this? Was it really necessary to use the signal? It had made him put down everything he was doing and bring his team with him. Lin Xiao felt discontent, but he didn’t show it and only calmly asked, “Who is it?”

“The Third Men’s Military Academy.”

Lin Xiao was shaken. “It’s them? You’re willing to cooperate with them? All three of us are rivals in this competition, you know,” he said in disbelief.

“Aren’t you guys allied with us right now?” Qiao Ting glanced at Lin Xiao with a half-smile. In the beginning, he didn’t think that the military academy that they allied with was the First Co-ed Military Academy.

“That’s because I don’t want to worry about anything to focus on going against the Second Men’s Military Academy.” Lin Xiao was straightforward. If Jiang Shaoyu hadn’t fantasized about Luo Chao, he wouldn’t have lowered himself to ally with the First Men’s Military Academy. As an ace operator, he had his own pride. It was only that… compared to Luo Chao’s importance, he would be willing to give up on this pride temporarily.

“Then we have more of a reason to ally with the Third Men’s Military Academy. You wouldn’t have to worry anymore and we will have what we want as well.” Qiao Ting told Lin Xiao his plan, and the latter’s eyes lit up. He discovered that Qiao Ting’s idea was pretty good and the hope of success was very high. The Third Men’s Military Academy had always wanted to get rid of their “ten thousand year fourth place” name. If the three of them cooperated and took care of the Second Men’s Military Academy, the rest would be able to be placed in the top 3. This alone would be enough to lure the Third Men’s Military Academy.

“Are you going to to the Third Men’s Military Academy to convince them?” Lin Xiao couldn’t help but look forward to it.

“Convince? Do I really need to that? If the Third Men’s Military Academy is smart, they will come to us.” Qiao Ting told Lin Xiao about what had happened to the Third Men’s Military Academy during the past few hours.

Lin Xiao heard all this and couldn’t help but bite his tongue. The Third Men’s Military Academy was too bold and reckless… Wait, the Third Men’s Military Academy didn’t have the daring resolution to make all the military academies in Area S and P their enemies. Even if the First Co-ed Military Academy would not dare do something so bold and reckless, they definitely wouldn’t do a stupid thing like this. The only possibility was that they were set up by someone else.

“Who did it behind their backs? So despicable!” Lin Xiao asked with schadenfreude. A question that he could think of would definitely have been thought of by Qiao Ting.

Qiao Ting didn’t answer; he only gave a deeply meaningful smile. Lin Xiao was stunned and pointed at Qiao Ting, saying, “You guys…”

Qiao Ting took a deep breath before speaking, knowing fully what the finger pointing meant. “Yeah, those guys who did it behind their backs are indeed despicable.” Qiao Ting felt so f**king amazing to be able speak openly about how Ling Lan was despicable.

Lin Xiao understood, took a deep breath and nodded. “Yeah, they really are shameless.” Since he had proactively asked them to form an alliance, all of the benefits of the Co-ed Military Academy was squeezed out by Ling Lan. Thinking about it now, Lin Xiao’s chest was still kind of hurting. It seemed that that guy was indeed shameless.

The two of them let out the frustration in their hearts in unplanned unison. They shared a look once again and felt better about each other.

However, Lin Xiao quickly thought of the drawback of forming an alliance with the Third Men’s Military Academy. “If we do ally with the Third Men’s Military Academy, we will be making enemies of the allied battle team of both Area S and P. Is it really worth it?”

“If we don’t make them our enemies, then whose headquarters are we going to attack?” Qiao Ting glanced at Lin Xiao proudly, his eyes full of confidence. The only reason he agreed to take his team and come out wasn’t to carry out Ling Lan’s orders, but to take the territories personally and prove his capabilities at the same time. It was also to make the First Men’s Military Academy have the highest cumulative score and take the champion of this year’s battle royale.

Qiao Ting’s words made Lin Xiao smile. If he wanted to swallow up all of Area S and P, the strength of their two academies would slightly off. However, when adding on the Third Men’s Military Academy… it would be enough. Thus, Lin Xiao said, “Then we’ll wait until the Third Men’s Military Academy comes knocking on the door of their own accord.”

Hearing this, Qiao Ting’s lips showed a slight smile. He looked towards the sky and thought to himself, “Ling Lan, even when it comes to strategy, I will not lose to you.”

Qiao Ting had continued to warn himself that Ling Lan shouldn’t be the rival that he should be paying attention to. However, the arrangements that Ling Lan had made that seemed to be messy yet contained deeper intents uncontrollably made Qiao Ting feel dreadful once again. He couldn’t control it and made Ling Lan into his rival once again.

Qiao Ting and Lin Xiao began waiting for the representative from the Third Men’s Military Academy to come to them to talk about cooperation. At that moment, Ling Lan’s team had passed Area S and was heading towards Area M. Only by going through Area M would they be able to to get into Area Q. Ling Lan target was none other than the Second Men’s Military Academy’s headquarters that was situated in the center of Area Q.

Although there weren’t as many military academies that picked out Area M compared to Area P, there were still around 20 or so military academy powers in the area. Even if Ling and company were very careful, they would still encounter battle teams in this area.

Here, one had to praise the modification made by Ling Lan on the logos before they set out. Using the identity of the Second Men’s Military Academy, it helped them move through smoothly. Many of the battle teams that they had bumped into saw that it was the Second Men’s Military Academy and didn’t do anything to intercept them. Some even enthusiastically asked which of the Second Men’s Military Academy’s battle teams they were.

With Little Four’s help, Ling Lan had already find out the name of the allied battle team that they had defeated, and thus she wasn’t flustered. She immediately gave up the name of the allied battle team. Ling Lan’s calm and collected behavior, of course, didn’t cause these battle teams to suspect anything. Just like that, they slowly crept their way through Area M and slowly got closer towards Area Q.

While Ling Lan appeared carefree on the outside, she was not so on the inside. She had discovered that the Second Men’s Military Academy had formed a huge alliance with the other military academies in Areas Q and M and were defending these two areas like they were digging for gold. Ling Lan speculated that once this alliance had readied their rear lines, they would send out most of their forces to attack Area S and P… Of course, Area P was the real golden territory. Only there would they understand the idea of those who win will become kings and those who lose will become peasants.

Ling Lan deceived another battle team and passed by them. They flew on for another half an hour. She looked at the map and found that their location was on the edge of Area M, it wouldn’t be long until they reached Area Q. Seeing the target headquarters drawing increasingly nearer, Ling Lan let out a small sigh of relief.

Ling Lan didn’t think that the Second Men’s Military Academy also had such an exceptional strategist. The formations of all the military academies in Area M pretty much made it impossible for any battle teams from Area S to get sneak in. If it wasn’t for the fact that she came prepared beforehand, it was possible that they would have been found out the moment they entered Area M.

Nevertheless, the path they had taken to this point had been a perilous one for Ling Lan because some of the battle teams were actually 24-man teams comprised of top-level special-class operators. If they had been found out, even if Ling Lan could escape, the other team members in her team would have definitely all been taken down. Ling Lan couldn’t risk that happening.

However, luck was not always going to follow Ling Lan. When Ling Lan and the others were just about to enter Area Q, a 12-man battle team of all special-class operators headed towards them. They heard the other party yell from afar, “Which battle team are you?”

Ling Lan calmly replied, “XX battle team!” They didn’t keep on asking. Right when Ling Lan thought that she successfully deceived a team once again, she suddenly discovered that the flying speed of the other party had accelerated many times over. The originally far distance instantly became very close.

Ling Lan quickly ordered, “Prepare to fight!” Ling Lan felt that they had definitely made a mistake, but Ling Lan couldn’t figure it out right then. What made them slip up? Hadn’t it been all unicorns and rainbows up until now?

Hearing her order, Qi Long and the others quickly took out their respective beam guns and cold weapons from the mounts on their back, holding one in each hand. They waited for Ling Lan’s final order.

“Are we going to attack first or wait?” Ling Lan hadn’t decided yet. He heard Little Four scream out, “Boss, look here.”

An image appeared on the mecha screen. Many mecha were hiding in the desert below. Ling Lan’s expression changed slightly and she quickly asked, “Little Four, what are the coordinates for the image?”

Little Four answered confusedly, “It’s the desert below you.”

Ling Lan glanced at the radar area and discovered that aside from the battle team that was flying towards them, no other battle team had appeared. Ling Lan didn’t need to think to know that the mecha hiding in the desert had definitely turned off their engines; only by doing this would the mecha be undetectable by the radar.

This made Ling Lan terrified. She had almost fallen into a trap just now. If Little Four hadn’t reminded her of this, once they chose to attack, they would not have been able to go back. When faced with being surrounded from both the inside and outside, even if it was Ling Lan herself, she wouldn’t have enough confidence to make sure she could escape.
