Chapter 711: Nuwa Element!

Chapter 713: Nuwa Element!

The 23rd Division was still young compared to the other divisions. It didn’t have much influence in the military, even if its general was one of the god-class operators in the Federation, it was still not able to prevent others from snatching their resources.

Actually, Ling Xiao didn’t know that the most valuable resource Ling Lan found was not the huge energy source at the bottom of the lake. Instead, it was a yellowish-brown plant that could be found everywhere on this planet.

After Li Shiyu conducted a series of experiments, he concluded that the yellowish-brown plants contained a strange element. This element could not be found in the Federation. Injecting this element into the cells of a human would drastically increase their regeneration ability.

That’s right, regeneration of organs and limbs would not be a dream anymore. It would become a reality.

Li Shiyu named this element, the Nuwa element. Legend has it that Nuwa was the creator of humans. Nuwa also used her body to patch the sky. Regeneration of organs and limbs was similar to how Nuwa patched the sky. Hence, Li Shiyu gave it this name.

When Li Shiyu told her about his findings, Ling Lan’s first thought was that he was in trouble. This finding, as well as the technique behind this, could change the world. The Federation would never allow this technique to belong to a single person. That meant that Li Shiyu would lose his freedom and be under the Federation’s control. He would only live in their secret base with the researchers.

If other countries found out about this, Li Shiyu would be unable to appear in public ever again. No one knew what these countries would do. The worst-case scenario was, extreme advocates of nature might view Li Shiyu as their enemy and think of ways to kill him.

Ling Lan thought about it carefully for a long time. In order to ensure Li Shiyu’s safety and freedom, she decided to keep this a secret. At the same time, she told Li Shiyu that he must not tell anyone about this. Even Ling Lan felt burdened by Li Shiyu’s findings. This was the first time she realized she was still not strong enough. She was still unable to protect these comrades who trusted her.

Ling Lan, you need to become stronger!

Since her father was the general of the 23rd division, Ling Lan relaxed ever since she entered the 23rd division. She didn’t work as hard on improving herself unlike before. In this half a year, she didn’t improve much in her physical skills or mecha piloting skills.

However, Li Shiyu’s findings caused her to have a sense of crisis. This made her motivated again.

Ling Lan could have told Ling Xiao about this and asked him to solve this issue but she didn’t. Ling Lan still had her pride. She felt that as an adult, she needed to be responsible for herself. Li Shiyu was her comrade. She should be the one taking care of this matter.

Additionally, Ling Lan felt that the fewer who knew of this secret, the safer it was.

The three months deadline for the land clearing mission was near. 250 Mecha Clan found a few more normal-sized mineral caves. Some were standard caves while some contained rare minerals. Other mecha clans liked exploring mountainous areas, but 250 Mecha Clan gave up such potential areas and continued guarding their flat piece of land which didn’t seem to have anything besides the yellowish-brown plants.

Due to 250 Mecha Clan’s inactivity, the 7th division found many resources. They all thought that this was General Ling Xiao’s way of giving back to them so they started treating the 23rd Division better. After a series of misunderstandings, the two divisions’ relationship got even better. Ling Lan’s selfish actions accidentally benefited her father.

Which in turn made the 250 Mecha Clan to be ranked at the bottom in terms of resources found. Because of this, when it was found out the lake within 250 Mecha Clan territory contained a huge energy source, many other mecha clans and divisions had their eyes on it. However, due to the relationships formed through this mission, the 7th division helped them to guard their resources along with their allies and the division under the First Marshal. More than half of the votes supported 250 Mecha Clan so the 23rd division got the right to take over the energy source.

Another reason why they were so generous was that they knew that even with the resource at the bottom of the lake, the resources 250 Mecha Clan found couldn’t compare to theirs. Thus, they didn’t care about this small loss. Additionally, they could please General Ling Xiao. Hence, without much difficulty, Ling Xiao got the resource.

Ling Xiao was surprised at how easy it was but since he achieved his motive of protecting his daughter’s interest, he couldn’t be bothered to think about the minor details. He knew that even if the other party had some hidden intentions, it would be exposed sooner or later. He would just take whatever that comes along. He was not afraid of it.

The most dangerous portion of the land clearing mission was done. After that, normal mecha clans would come and scour the planet to see if there were any leftovers. It was still dangerous but compared to their portion of the mission, it was much safer. The Federation made this decision because they wanted to train the normal mecha clans. Of course, if these mecha clans found some resources, they would get some of it. However, those resources were all non-renewable.

Before they left, the command center of the land clearing mission informed 250 Mecha Clan that their temporary base would be taken over by the 23rd division. It would be used by the other mecha clans that would be coming to this planet.

Ling Lan didn’t reject the request but she didn’t accept it readily too. She took the chance to get some benefits from the command center. Although her father was the general of the 23rd division, she was still the regiment commander of 250 Mecha Clan. She must think for her mecha clan first.

She managed to get many things from the command center. She had to thank Lin Zhong-qing for this. His exceptional negotiation skills turned the representative from the command center pale. From then on, this representative placed Lin Zhong-qing on his blacklist. He never wanted to talk to Lin Zhong-qing ever again.

After Ling Xiao knew about this, he laughed heartily. There were many capable people under his daughter. His daughter didn’t forget to groom her comrades while she was improving herself. As expected of his daughter. She inherited all of his good traits.

While praising his daughter, Ling Xiao remembered to compliment himself. At that moment, he had forgotten that the things his daughter extorted were all his…

Well, even if Ling Xiao remembered, he would still give it to his daughter willingly. He might even help his daughter to extort more things from the 23rd division if he had the chance to.

After finishing everything, Ling Lan ordered Lin Zhong-qing to remove Meng Lan from the base. She was not kind enough to give away the intelligent entity which Little Four created. Although Meng Lan was just a powerful intelligent system and not someone like Little Four, she was still much better than the mainframes from the Federation.

Ling Lan couldn’t bear to give Meng Lan away. To Ling Lan, Meng Lan was the personal mainframe of 250 Mecha Clan. She was in charge of the safety of 250 Mecha Clan’s virtual world. She made sure their information would not be leaked out.

Suddenly, an alarm rang throughout the entire base. “Level one alert. Level one alert. A huge creature had appeared outside of the base. All mecha operators, please get into position and prepare to fight.”

Meng Lan stopped her removal process. The entire base was on level one alert. Her voice rang throughout the entire base and all the mecha operators rushed to their mechas.

“What happened?” Ling Lan was looking through the documents for their land clearing mission when she heard the alarm.

Meng Lan displayed some images on the screen. Numerous tentacles appeared outside their base. A huge circular object rose above the surface of the lake. However, it didn’t attack the base. It just stayed there, seemingly to remind the base of its presence.

“What is it trying to do? Is it not afraid that I’ll kill it?” Ling Lan was shocked. The creature was the sidekick she took in. It had been peaceful for these past three months. Why did it suddenly start creating a ruckus when she was about to leave?

“No, it seemed to be angry that you are leaving.” Little Four yawned. Little Four was awake now but he always seemed tired. He would sleep whenever he had the time to.

As for Little Blossom, he was taken away by Number Five for training. Ling Lan wanted to bring Little Blossom back. However, Number Five just stared at her with dead-pan eyes. He seemed to be telling her that if Little Blossom didn’t go for training, she would have to replace him. Hence, Ling Lan pretended that she said nothing.

Sob. Little Blossom, I know that you are suffering. I’ll compensate you when you are back.

Ling Lan felt guilty so she decided to compensate Little Blossom when he comes back. If Ling Lan knew that Number Four was the one who was training… she would probably still let Little Blossom handle it.
