He had told Han Xuya and Luo Chao about the effects of the two agents before and the price those agents will get. Although they were not priceless, they could still fetch a few hundred millions of credits, so he didn't expect Luo Chao to pa.s.s her agent to him so nonchalantly. However… Li s.h.i.+yu also felt a little speechless as he didn't know if he should be happy or angry. Should he be glad that he was more important than the agent or should he be angry that Luo Chao gave away the agent he created so easily?
"We can't waste this agent like this…" Li s.h.i.+yu finally sighed and said. He raised his hand and pushed Luo Chao's hand back. In the past, he thought that Luo Lang was stupid because Luo Chao took all of his intelligence away. Now, he finally understood that stupidity was a trait in both siblings. Luo Chao's stupidity, however, was not shown in her intelligence. It was in other areas.
When Li s.h.i.+yu was thinking up to this point, he was stunned by a sudden realization. 'Isn't a recovery agent supposed to be used by someone sick like me? So, why would it be a waste to use it on me? Am I the stupid one?' He thought before shaking his head to get rid of these thought-provoking thoughts.
"Based on my condition, I just need a normal recovery agent. It will be a waste if it is used on me." Li s.h.i.+yu took out a normal recovery agent from the first-aid kit beside Luo Chao. He opened it and drank it in one gulp. If he really drank that agent, his heart would ache for a few months. After all, there were only 20 of those agents in the world.
Luo Chao thought for a moment and stuffed the agent back into her bag. Li s.h.i.+yu had been working for four hours, so Luo Chao felt that it was only right for him to take the best recovery agent. But, since Li s.h.i.+yu rejected it, Luo Chao decided to listen to him. After all, Li s.h.i.+yu is a military doctor, right?
All the seriously injured patients were all finished being treated so the medical department swiftly went back to the base. At the end of the day, this was the battlefield. It wasn't as safe as their base. Ling Lan waited for all the logisticians to go back to the base before bringing all the mecha operators back to the base.
She shuffled her legs back to her office tiredly. The moment she opened the door, she saw a tiring sight. It was Li Lanfeng.
Li Lanfeng knew who was coming the moment he heard Ling Lan's footsteps. He smiled and stood up. "You are back."
"Yes." Ling Lan replied lightly. She took off her military cap and plopped on the sofa in front of her desk.
Li Lanfeng suddenly walked up to her and pa.s.sed a folder to Ling Lan. "This is an estimation of casualties of the battle just now. Lin Zhong-qing and his team are still collating the exact numbers. They will need another hour to finish everything up."
Ling Lan took the folder from Li Lanfeng's hands and scanned through it quickly. Shocking numbers kept popping in front of her eyes.
"A rough estimate of 7600 people?" Ling Lan's fingers turned white as she held the folder tightly. Five entire mecha clans were sacrificed in this battle.
'This is the battlefield…' Ling Lan finally understood how cruel war was. One battle in this war did not kill a hundred or a few hundred people. It killed thousands of people.
"It looks like a lot, but if you distribute it among the hundreds of mecha clans in this base, each mecha clan only sacrificed around 80 people, and that is not even the size of a team…" Li Lanfeng explained.
"80 people is not a lot?" Ling Lan slammed her hands on the desk and stood up. She shouted, "Aren't 7600 people many? That is five mecha clans and almost 40 mecha operators in 250…"
Li Lanfeng looked at her calmly. "So what?"
Ling Lan just stared at Li Lanfeng for a few seconds, before she slowly sat down. "Yes, so what?"
As long as this war continued, the casualties would only increase. More and more people would die here until the war ended.
Ling Lan sank into the sofa silently as she pondered over something. Li Lanfeng sat beside her. Both of them didn't move or talk.
Ling Lan suddenly said, "Leopard, I hate people dying needlessly. I hate war!"
"Yes." Li Lanfeng muttered in reply. It seemed like an answer or he was just acknowledging that he was listening to her.
"I want to end this war!" Ling Lan's eyes were glinting brightly. "Do you think that I'm aiming for unachievable?"
"If anyone else had said this, I will think that way." Li Lanfeng smiled and looked at Ling Lan. "But, if it is you, you'll be able to do it."
"The Rabbit I know, the leader of Lingtian, the Regiment Commander of 250 Ace Mecha Clan, is someone who can do anything what he sets his mind to," Li Lanfeng said firmly.
"Yes, Boss. I believe that you can do it…"
"Boss, don't forget that you still have us…"
"We will work together with you."
The members of Lingtian had all arrived without Ling Lan noticing.
"Regiment commander, if you need us to do anything, please tell us." Yang Mingzhi represented all of the veteran mecha operators and expressed their thoughts to Ling Lan. They had been through many wars and were sick of it. Their mental illnesses came because of their loathing for wars.
Ling Lan was touched but she didn't show it on her face. She kept her cold expression on.
After some time, she regained her composure and scanned the crowd. All the leaders and deputy leaders stood up straight in response.
"I hope that you all remember what you have said here. Now, you can all go back and take a rest." After this huge battle, everyone must be tired. Ling Lan was unwilling to hold them here any longer so she asked them to go back.
Everyone had reached their limit so they went back to their apartments and got some rest.
As Li Lanfeng was turning to leave, Ling Lan stopped him. "Lanfeng, wait for a moment."
Li Lanfeng stopped in surprise. He turned and waited for Ling Lan's order.
Ling Lan stared at him silently for a few seconds. Li Lanfeng got nervous. 'Did Ling Lan find out about my secret?'
Suddenly, Ling Lan said, "Leopard, did you hate me for not saving you and attacking our opponent instead?"
Li Lanfeng smiled when he heard this. The entire room turned warm. "If you had saved me, you will not be the Rabbit I know."
Li Lanfeng gave him an intense look.
"Actually, you didn't save me because you trust me. Ling Lan, I have to instead thank you for not saving me…" Li Lanfeng retracted his smile and said seriously, "Your choice made me understand that I've finally gotten closer to you."
Ling Lan stared at Li Lanfeng intently. After some time, she said, "Leopard, you have always been close to me. You just never realized it. I'm very happy today."
Finally, you became confident. You are willing to trust that I believed in you.
