Chapter 1243: 1243
“60 degrees to the left,” Ling Lan suddenly shouted .
Luo Lang followed Ling Lan’s command like a robot and forced the entire base to maneuver to his will .
A beam scrapped the outer metal shell of the base . If the base moved a little slower, the beam would have pierced a hole through it .
Still, the huge force behind the beam caused the entire base to shake violently . Meng Lan activated the alarm of the base before Ling Lan ordered her to . The soldiers were alerted of the potential dangers and they started preparing themselves .
“Master, the right OVR of the base is damaged . The second door has been closed . Please send people to repair it as soon as possible . If not, the integrity of the base might be compromised . ” Meng Lan reminded Ling Lan that the beam had caused damage to the shell of the base .
Ling Lan frowned . It would be dangerous to send repairmen out to repair the base now .
The damaged part of the base was in bad condition . The oxygen supply equipment there was destroyed . Thus, the repairmen had to wear thick spacesuits to do the repairing work .
Base Nebula was moving at a high speed so the damage was worsened by at least four times . The base still needed to evade more attack from the god-class mecha so the movements of the base were going to be unpredictable which increased the difficulty of repairing work .
If something happened to their protective mechanism, the repairers would be thrown into space . There were two outcomes of this scenario . First outcome, they would slowly suffocate and die after finishing their oxygen supply . Second outcome, they would be discovered by the enemy and killed .
They were in a dire situation now so Ling Lan knew that they wouldn’t be able to save the repairmen if they were thrown into space . It would take too long for them to come back after escaping from the god-class mecha . By that time, the oxygen supply of the spacesuits would be depleted .
However, if she didn’t send out repairmen, the surface damage of the base would increase due to their high speed . This would affect the structural integrity of their base . The entire base might collapse because of this .
Ling Lan made her decision . She called the logistics department and ordered them to repair the damage .
Ling Lan would be ruthless when she needed to . She wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice some repairmen if it could protect the majority of her men .
“Yes, lieutenant general . ” The logistics department quickly sent a team of repairmen out after receiving the order .
Ling Lan started multitasking . She kept a close watch on the repairmen while she focused on her Profound Insight . She didn’t want to miss any feelings or reminders from her innate talent . She was afraid that a small negligence on her side would cause the destruction of the entire base Nebula .
Luo Lang and Ling Lan cooperated perfectly . Even if their teamwork wasn’t perfect, it was close enough . The giving of command and the execution of command was done almost simultaneously . It looked as if the one commanding and the one maneuvering the base was the same person .
Base Nebula managed to evade Lord Jindao’s beams but the sudden maneuvers caused one of the repairmen to get thrown into space . He didn’t manage to buckle his safety belt in time .
Ling Lan knew of this incident but her face remained expressionless . From the moment she gave the order to send the repairmen out, she became the cold blooded Lieutenant General Ling .
“We can’t continue like this,” Li Lanfeng said when he noticed that Lord Jindao was getting nearer to the bse .
“What should we do?” Ling Lan didn’t turn around . Her eyes were still glued to the screen that showed what was happening outside .

Li Lanfeng didn’t answer immediately . He looked at Ling Lan with a complicated expression . In the end, his gaze turned firm .
“Send a mecha brigade to stop him . They will be able to buy us some time . ” Li Lanfeng finally said his suggestion .

His words caused Ling Lan to shift her eyes away from the screen . She glanced at Li Lanfeng who was wearing a stern expression .
She raised her eyebrows . Her gaze was intense . “Who are you planning to send?”
“I’ll lead Mecha Brigade 06 to stop him . ” Li Lanfeng chose himself .
Ling Lan rejected him instantly . “No . ”
“Why not?” Li Lanfeng asked sincerely .
“You won’t be able to defeat Lord Jindao . He will be able to kill all of you with a single attack . These are unnecessary sacrifices . You won’t be able to buy much time,” Ling Lan replied indifferently . Her tone was resolute .
“Rabbit, you know that if we continue like this, Lord Jindao will catch up with Base Nebula sooner or later . We will all be dead by then . In that case, why can’t we take a leap of faith? A miracle might happen . ” Li Lanfeng suddenly called Ling Lan by her nickname . He hadn’t used it for a long time . His emotions seemed to be seeping out of his eyes .
He was willing to die if Ling Lan could remain alive . Maybe this was the best ending for him . Ling Lan wouldn’t know of his dirty thoughts . He wouldn’t drag Ling Lan to hell just because of his selfish feelings . Ling Lan would be able to lead a happy life with his two wives and climb to the peak of the Federation .
He just hoped that Ling Lan would remember him!
F**K!
Damn it . He was so jealous .
When Li Lanfeng thought about Ling Lan marrying Luo Chao and Han Xuya, his heart bled . He even thought of dying with Ling Lan . That way, he would be the only one by Ling Lan’s side in the end .
Ling Lan frowned at Li Lanfeng’s words . She suddenly stood up and walked to the door .
“Ling Lan, where are you going?” Li Lanfeng got affected by his negative emotions so he reacted a little slower . Ling Lan was the most important person in his life . The moment she moved, Li Lanfeng threw all his emotions away to the back of his head .
Ling Lan stopped and turned around . “You’re right . We can’t sit and wait for death . If we take the risk, we might be able to create a miracle . ”
“…” Li Lanfeng frowned . From his understanding of Ling Lan, he knew what she was thinking . “I don’t agree . The base needs you . The people here are waiting for you to bring them home . ”
“Base Nebula will only be able to escape if we stop Lord Jindao . I’m the best mecha operator here . Thus, I’m the most suitable candidate,” Ling Lan replied calmly .
She immediately gave her order . “Li Lanfeng, you’ll stay here and be in charge of the base . ”
“No…” Li Lanfeng wanted to reject Ling Lan but she had already disappeared .
Li Lanfeng gritted his teeth as he stared at the empty room . He contacted the control room and told Xie Yi in a hurried tone, “Xie Yi, come to the command center immediately . You’ll take charge of the base from now on . ”
“Huh?” Xie Yi was stunned when he heard this arrangement .
