1422 Evolved!

The three of them knew that once they entered through the door, they might be walking into a lion’s den. But, they were all soldiers who had fought through many hard-fought battles. This slight problem wasn’t enough to stop them from achieving their goal, which was to obtain more intel about the situation in the Kamoda district.

Ling Lan nodded at Li Lanfeng. After being given the approval to go forward, Li Lanfeng touched the hillside and told Ling Lan and Luo Lang, “Follow behind me closely.”

After he finished speaking, he took a huge step and entered the door. Ling Lan followed him without any hesitation. Luo Lang brought up the rear.

The three of them rushed towards the hillside. Then, they disappeared mysteriously.

The moment they entered through the hillside, all they saw an extremely expansive tunnel. Luckily, there were no guards but Ling Lan quickly noticed that there were numerous surveillance cameras hidden behind the ceiling of the tunnel.

Fortunately, Ling Lan and her comrades had turned on the chameleon system before coming in. The moment they entered the tunnel, the chameleon system almost instantaneously changed the colour of the mecha according to its surroundings, allowing the mechas to blend with the background of the environment. This might be useless against perceptive domain realm masters but it was enough to tackle these rigid machines.

Still, to keep the energy fluctuations to the minimum, the three of them changed their mecha control system to manual mode. While doing so, they switch the full throttle mode of their engine to the less energy consuming mode, minimal energy mode.

In minimal energy mode, besides the energy needed to ensure that the mecha systems continued working, all the ease of use functions were turned off. The movement of the mecha relied entirely on manual control.

This kind of control would allow the heat emission of the mecha to get close to zero, preventing them from being caught by infrared detectors.

“Boss, there’s a laser security system in the tunnel.” Luo Lang activated his radar scanner and saw multiple red lines scattered in the tunnel. They formed a complex structure with almost no holes, essentially forming a large web over the entire tunnel.

“Let’s test your fundamental skill,” Ling Lan said calmly. After saying that, she maneuvered her mecha through the laser web with much agility.

“Haha, how can I be beaten by this?” Luo Lang was unwilling to admit defeat so he followed Ling Lan and passed through the web with comparable amounts of agility.

Li Lanfeng shook his head and followed behind them.

Actually, in their eyes, this kind of defensive system was nothing to them. They were able to pass through it even when they were in their second or third year of being a scout.

They were so easy to intrude that the Federation gave up this kind of defensive system centuries ago. Most would only see this kind of low-level defensive systems in their history lessons. Yet, in the Lawless Lands, this system still existed. So, it was quite an interesting experience to Ling Lan and her comrades who were able to see and experience it personally for themselves.

Although this was an easy obstacle, the three of them didn’t get complacent. Instead, they became even more cautious the more they got deeper into the tunnel. The simpler something seemed, the more complicated it might be. Luo Lang might not think this way but Ling Lan, who liked to think deeper into matters, and Li Lanfeng, who naturally liked to overthink, definitely thought about this possibility.

Luckily, no problems occurred during their journey. The three of them came to the exit successfully. However, to their surprise, they saw many guard mechas there.

Ling Lan was surprised for a moment. But, soon, she understood why the other party made this arrangement.

The best time to ambush someone was when they just entered through the door. But, it was also the hardest time for the guards to differentiate a friend from a foe, especially when people entered through the door using the passcode. The guards wouldn’t be able to make an accurate judgment instantly. By the time they could differentiate the enemy, it would be too late to attack them.

The enemy however, wouldn’t need to make such judgment. They could just start shooting blindly the moment they entered through the door. The result was clear. Before the guards at the door could react, they would be killed by their enemies.

To prevent these unnecessary deaths from happening, the Mecha Scavenger Organization shifted their guards to the exit. They also placed some surveillance equipment and a low-level laser defensive system in the tunnel. This would give the guards enough time to understand the situation inside the tunnel and prepare themselves.

Once intruders were found, they would be attacked in all directions when they reached the exit. In this case, the intruders would be the ones who didn’t have the time to react, not the guards.

This was a good arrangement. But, there was a major weakness. The guards were too dependent on the surveillance equipment, if they couldn’t detect the intruders like them, they could easily bypass every security checkpoint.

“They are the scavengers from a moment ago,” Li Lanfeng reminded them through their earpiece.

“Boss, what do we do?” Luo Lang always listened to Boss’s orders.

“Don’t stop. Pass through them directly. Don’t alert the guards.” While Ling Lan gave her order, her hands didn’t stop moving. She controlled her mecha to fly towards the exit.

Luo Lang didn’t understand why they were doing this but he was someone who firmly believed in Boss’s orders. Thus, he instantly executed the order and followed behind Ling Lan’s footsteps.

Li Lanfeng thought for a split second and roughly understood the meaning of Ling Lan’s order. He smiled and followed them decisively.

The leader who brought them in was discussing something with the chief of the guards. Mechas had their own personal channels so Ling Lan and her comrades couldn’t hear what they were saying. But, she could tell that the mechas weren’t on their guards.

This showed that the leader didn’t betray them.

This was why Ling Lan dared to fly past them. The guards didn’t notice them and the leader who brought them in had attracted the attention of the guards. This was definitely a good chance for them to sneak in.

However, it was extremely difficult to find a way to sneak past these mechas which were standing disorderly. There might not be an easy route to go pass them.

The distance between each mecha might not be big enough for a mecha to pass through. It meant that there was no way they could smuggle themselves in.

In reality, this was what happened.

The mechas looked as though they just chose to stand in their positions casually but if you looked at them carefully, you would see that all their positions were extremely planned out. No matter which route you take, you would reach a dead end.

The person who arranged this arrangement was an expert.

Li Lanfeng, who was good at scheming, noticed the problem the moment he got near the mechas. When he saw that, the spark in his eyes lit up.

At this moment, many different routes appeared in his mind. However, all of them were immediately eliminated.

‘Is there a way through?’

Li Lanfeng looked at Ling Lan’s mecha from the corner of his eyes. She passed the first set of mecha without any hesitation. When Li Lanfeng saw that, he calmed himself down.

There must be a way!

He knew that Ling Lan wasn’t someone who acted rashly or bet on something that was unwinnable.

Where was it? Why couldn’t he see it?

Li Lanfeng always knew that there was a distance between Ling Lan and him. He thought that the distance between them had shortened but in that instant just now, he felt that the distance was still as vast as the ocean.

How can I be left behind by you again?

Li Lanfeng was extremely frightened of being left behind. Suddenly, his eyes turned black entirely.

The pupil of his eye expanded without any limit until it devoured all the white parts of his eyes, looking as if his eyes had turned into black holes.

Li Lanfeng was currently looking at a four-dimensional world. The passages around him and the mechas in front of him all turned into lines. They criss-crossed each other. It looked like a minor virtual world.
