Ling Lan was in a rush so she mult.i.tasked. She monitored the security footage from Hailiya while looking through the doc.u.ments Li Lanfeng pa.s.sed to her.

Suddenly, she saw a bunch of unique mechas on the screen. She quickly shouted in her mindscape, "Little Four, replay that scene."

Little Four quickly rewinded the video and played that scene again.

He thoughtfully played the video in a way that Ling Lan could see the appearance of the mechas clearly. They looked the same as the other ace mechas from Hailiya, except for the golden plate on their shoulder. The golden plate had a picture on it with some Hailiyan words carved under it.

"Little Four, zoom in on the golden plate."

Soon, the zoomed-in image of the golden plate appeared on the screen. The picture was taken while the mecha was in motion so the image was a little blurry. However, Ling Lan was still able to deduce what was in the picture. The picture showed a fleur-de-lis, the national flower of Hailiya. The words below it, when translated, meant the amba.s.sador of love.

'National flower? Amba.s.sador of love?' This symbol would not appear on a normal ace mecha clan as it was a national symbol. Ling Lan's heart suddenly dropped. She knew this was an important clue, so she quickly asked Little Four to get all the information about this ace mecha clan.

In the virtual world, Little Four turned into an octopus again as he went into his database and dug up all the information he could about the mecha clans in Hailiya. He wanted to find the mecha clan that had a relations.h.i.+p with the golden plate.

After looking for quite a long while, he realized that there was no mecha clan that fit the description of what he wanted to find, so he quickly reported his findings to Ling Lan.

"Nothing?" Ling Lan was worried. This meant that Hailiya had hidden this mecha clan very well. There must be a problem. She looked up and shouted at Li Lanfeng, "Lanfeng, give me all the records about the mecha clans that entered and left Hailiya's port within the past month."

The Federation had been watching over Hailiya's actions since the creation of it, so she might be able to find some evidence there.

Li Lanfeng quickly went to search for the records. Before Ling Lan gave her order, Little Four had started searching for any images of the Hailiya port after they came here.

Li Lanfeng found the records and pa.s.sed them to Ling Lan instantly.

Ling Lan took over the doc.u.ments and quickly scanned through them. Unfortunately, she didn't find what she was looking for. In the past month, Hailiya didn't send any new mecha clans to Planet Haijiao. Just as she was about to give up, she saw an inconspicuous sentence: Star Calendar Year ****, Hailiya sends supplies from their base once.

'Supplies?' This meant that a mecha clan had sent the supplies over to Planet Haijiao. However, as of yesterday, no supply transportation team had left Planet Haijiao. This meant that the supply transportation team was still on Planet Haijiao. It was clearly illogical for the supply transportation team to still be there, as it had been half a month since the supplies were sent over. Based on the standard procedure, this supply transportation mecha clan should have left Planet Haijiao ten days ago…

'There is something wrong with this supply transportation mecha clan!'

Ling Lan slammed her fist on the table. She was frustrated at the Federation for their carelessness. She finally knew how this secret mecha clan arrived on Planet Haijiao. They made use of the mindset of the people watching over them to carry out their secret plan. The people from the Federation thought that a supply transportation team was of no threat so they let down their guard and didn't place much attention on them.

Little Four found a video, and it confirmed Ling Lan's thoughts. In the video, the scene where the supply transportation mecha clan arrived at the port was captured. However, Little Four just downloaded the video based on habit and didn't inspect it. Images of this clan as they were leaving Hailiya were shot, but they were shot from afar so the images were unclear. Fortunately, Little Four still remembered to take some close distance photos so this mecha clan's tracks were still found.

"Boss, it's the mecha clan that transported the supplies. Are they do have enough mecha operators? Why are they using logisticians?" Little Four was a simple person, so he made a judgment based on what he saw.

"No, this is Hailiya's ultimate weapon that is able to change the tides of this war to their favour." Ling Lan turned serious as she looked at the images Little Four displayed in front of her.

"Did you find something?" Li Lanfeng noticed Ling Lan's change in expression.

"Look at the big screen." Ling Lan asked Li Lanfeng to look at the image on the screen. She also asked Little Four to play all the videos that had this mecha clan inside on the screen.

The mechas with this golden plate flew past the screen. Li Lanfeng looked at them and turned serious too. "Their mecha piloting is perfect. Compared to the mecha operators beside them, their operation is much more fluid and smooth. These are not ordinary ace mecha masters."

"Don't you find the background of the video familiar?" Ling Lan clenched her fist. She didn't expect her first battle in a war to be so tough.

Li Lanfeng was a smart person. He carefully observed the background of the video and got a shock. "Their destination is Base 013."

"It'll be a hard battle." Ling Lan knew that they had no choice but to fight this battle.

"It's a battle that determines if we live or die." The normal ace mecha masters from their base were unable to defeat these elite ace mecha masters. The only way to even take one of them down was for two ace mecha masters to attack one of them or go for mutual destruction.

Ling Lan's expression turned cold. She understood why Li Lanfeng was saying that. There were just too few people in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. If this mecha clan attacked Base 013 using its full force, 250 Ace Mecha Clan had no chance of winning against them. They might even get annihilated.

"Have you contacted the other bases?" Ling Lan suddenly asked Little Four.

"I've contacted Base 012, and they have already sent three mecha clans to reinforce us." Little Four finally gave Ling Lan a piece of good news.

Based on the previous battles, the Hailiyan army was always forced to retreat due to the reinforcements from the other bases arriving on time. However, since she was the person-in-charge of this battle, she wouldn't just blindly hope for reinforcements to come and save them.

Ling Lan paced around the room while her brain worked furiously. Hailiya should have a lot of intel about Base 013 too. They knew it was the weakest base among all the bases on the frontline of the battlefield. This was why they chose this base. But, this also meant that they looked down on Base 013. Thus, they might think that it was a waste of resources to send the entire ace mecha clan to attack this base. Considering the reinforcements coming from the other bases, Hailiya should have split the ace mecha clan into a few groups.

Ling Lan's eyes lit up. There might be hope.

She slammed her hands on the table and said sternly, "Order Luo Lang to bring all the mecha operators out!"
