Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 1210

Chapter 1210 Wall Climbing

It turns out, the general had just arrived when the two mechas were about to collide into each other. He somersaulted in between the two mechas, put his hands on the shoulders of the mechas, and pushed the two mechas away from each other. This piloting ability and the amount of force used was so precise that it would make heads turn.

After doing all that, the general's own speed didn't decrease at all and was still flying at his original speed.

So, this was what a G.o.d-cla.s.s operator was like. Something that couldn't be avoided for him would be considered to be a piece of cake for the general to avoid.

The team leader felt grateful. Although the general's (Belief] was no longer in his sights, he still couldn't hold back his look of admiration.

However, he quickly returned to his original demeanor and coldly shouted towards the new members who almost caused a horrible accident to occur, “I've always cautioned you to remain calm on the battlefield. Be calm! Remain calm! Did all that go up your a.s.s? Moreover, there's two of you? If it wasn't for the general, you would have died right then and there. I wouldn't even visit your gaves out of shame.”

“Sorry, team leader!” The two new members had their heads down as they apologized sincerely.

They had practiced it so many times and their team leader had led them on missions against s.p.a.ce pirates. They thought they weren't going to be nervous. However, in such a large scale war, these two new recruits who had not truly experienced war were as nervous as they could be. If they didn't hear the JMC's panic warning and their team leader's order to evade, they might have been calm in the whole situation.

However, that wasn't possible. The JMC's panic warning and their team leader's order to evade were factors they could not predict in a war. They didn't know what they were thinking at that moment. They were probably nervous or panicking. Perhaps their minds went blank. All in all, after all that, while piloting their mechas, they actually made such easily avoidable mistakes. The two of them had made a mistake on their directions and almost made a blunder of cras.h.i.+ng into each other. Although in the end the general helped them out and got them out of the dangerous situation, they were still frustrated and annoyed with themselves. This event was enough to make them hate themselves. Tears of regret also slowly appeared in their eyes.

“On the battlefield, only soldiers who can stay calm can survive. Make sure you remember this. Next time, the general won't be around to save your lives,” continued the team leader coldly. As a veteran, he was well aware of the end result for soldiers who lost their cool. Angry outburst and berserk way of doing things would only let a soldier survive for an instant. However, those types of people wouldn't be able to stay alive for long. Those who could survive the war were all calm and wise individuals who liked to search, create and grab hold of opportunities.

“Yes, team leader.” These two people carved those words in their hearts. What happened here just now will be in their minds forever. They will never forget. This experience would also teach them the consequences of losing their cool.

“Get into your positions and be in the formation.” The team leader didn't say anymore because he had already said enough. If those two team members of his still couldn't learn to stay calm, then that meant they were mentally not suitable to be in the army. An individual who didn't understand themselves would always have to pay the price for their decisions. That was how the fairness worked in the world of soldiers.

Ling Xiao didn't care about the mistakes the two mecha operators made. Ever since he entered the military until he became a G.o.d-cla.s.s operator, he had seen too many new recruits enter the battlefield for the first time. No matter how many times they practiced, their hearts would waver once they got on the real battlefield. In the end, they would make mistakes. Some were lucky and grew as they went through trials of life or death to become experienced veterans. Some weren't as lucky and would usually perish with regret during their first time on the battlefield.

Despite the Federation creating a five year plan to let new recruits get used to the process, the highest mortality rate on the battlefield was still mostly new recruits. The rate of making mistakes was also highest with new recruits… This was the difference between practice and the real thing. It wasn't something that could be practiced in theory.

Unless… Ling Xiao thought of Ling Lan's h.e.l.lish training method. From what he knew, when his daughter trained her soldiers, she would train them on the brink of death to let them feel the feeling of death. Only this type of training would numb the minds of the new recruits and steel their nerves for real combat, real bloodshed and real life-or-death situations. These individuals would be able to stay alive and fight to their last drop…

However, this type of training… Ling Xiao smirked and was happy that his daughter was so lucky. She actually managed to kidnap a medical prodigy into her ranks. Only Li s.h.i.+yu could invent such strong recovery medicinal agents along with methods of bringing back people from the dead. Even the military headquarters' medical department head admired him for these methods. With these medicine and methods of resuscitating at her disposal, Ling Lan could implement the h.e.l.lish training that could actually kill someone if she wasn't careful.

Every time he heard about Ling Lan overseeing the h.e.l.lish training, Ling Xiao would become concerned. He was afraid Ling Lan would go too over the top and would actually cause a mess for herself. For that, he had already thought of many ways to help his daughter handle those situations. Although he never had to use any of his plans, Ling Xiao was still constantly prepared and didn't dare to loosen up.

Ling Xiao thought of Ling Lan because he was reminded of her by the two silly new recruits. However, that thought was only for a moment as he had already arrived at the front lines of the battlefield. The Three Stars Lock s.h.i.+ned brightly in front of him.

At that moment, in a base called ‘Base Nebula' far far away, had received the news that Granda had sent two G.o.d-cla.s.s operators to aid the Twilight Empire.

Of course, them receiving the information so quickly was all Little Four's hard work.

After knowing his father was leading an army against the Twilight Empire, Little Four almost made the decision to leave Boss to follow Ling Xiao to the Twilight Empire. Of course in the end, he couldn't leave because Ling Lan was his host. That was why he couldn't leave. If not…

Well, after Ling Lan had said Little Four was her little brother, and her father and mother was also his father and mother, Little Four had always been in a constant state of trying to integrate himself into her family even if they didn't know about it. In the beginning, Ling Lan would still reprimand Little Four for being shameless. However, now, she was completely numb to his antics.

It had already developed into Ling Lan letting him go every time Little Four wanted to go to her father and mother. He would always wish for Ling Lan to refer to him as ‘Ling s.h.i.+'.

Of course, in a battle between Ling Lan and Little Four, the winner was always Ling Lan. Little Four could only just complain and whine about how Boss was evil for not fulfilling his wish.

However, even if he couldn't be there personally, Little Four was still listening to news about Ling Xiao from across the entire network of the Federation. Once there was news, he would be first to receive it. This was also the reason why the instant military headquarters received news of Granda sending G.o.d-cla.s.s operators to the war, Ling Lan also received the news at the same time.

[Editor's Note: Ling s.h.i.+ means Ling Four]
