“What a pity. He escaped,” Liu Furong said angrily. The opponent he fought with was stronger than the teammates he had around him, so he must have had a particularly high status in the Hailiyan army. If they were able to kill him, they could not only take revenge for their comrades but also injure the morale of their enemies.

Liu Furong only felt it was a pity for a short while, but he quickly returned back to his calm state and joined the battle against the four abandoned imperial operators.

When Han Jijyun saw two of the enemy mechas running away and the remaining four imperial operators getting cornered by their mecha operators, he knew the danger was over, so he piloted his mecha out of the dense forest and came to the ruins. He needed to find survivors quickly to send them back to Base 013 so that they could receive treatment as soon as possible. This was why he hid just now. No matter what the end result of this battle was, he needed to send the injured soldiers back to their base, even if he had to risk his life to complete this mission.

Han Jijyun started searching carefully. Anyone that self-destructed their mecha had a very low chance of survival but he still didn’t give up. Finally, he found a cockpit that managed to be ejected out of the mecha safety before the explosion of the mecha could catch up to it. It was buried in the ground at a corner of the battlefield. Han Jijyun rushed over and carefully took the cockpit out. He also saw a green line around the cockpit, symbolizing that the person inside the cockpit was still alive. Han Jijyun hurriedly linked his channel with the cockpit and said, “This is Han Jijyun. What is your situation?”

“Cough, cough. Damn it. I almost died from the fall. Leader Han, has the battle outside ended?” Yao Jian’s weak voice came from the cockpit.

“Deputy Leader Yao! It’s Deputy Leader Yao! That’s good.” Han Jijyun shouted in excitement, “Leader Yang and Leader Gu had come to reinforce us with their teams. We are clearing the last of the enemy now. Deputy Leader Yao, hang in there. I’ll send you back to the base soon.”

“I’m fine. I just suffered some internal injuries. I’ve already taken the recovery fluid, so go and look for other survivors.” Yao Jian knew that even before he had self-destructed his mecha, many other people had already self-destructed their mechas. He just hoped that they were as lucky as him and managed to eject successfully.

“Okay!” Han Jijyun placed Yao Jian’s cockpit at a safe place so that he wouldn’t be implicated by the battle above them. Then, he started searching through the ruins again. Yao Jian’s survival gave him some confidence that there would be other members who were still alive.

After this, Han Jijyun found two more members who were at the brink of death. If Han Jijyun had found them just slightly later, they would have died. To save these two members who were struggling at the doors of hell, Han Jijyun fed them the precious agent that Ling Lan gave him, managing to keep them alive for the moment.

He had found three people that were still alive. But, no matter how much he continued searching, he couldn’t find any more survivors. Han Jijyun finally gave up. Out of more than 30 mecha operators who self-destructed their mechas, only three had survived. Team 02 sacrificed 13 members while team 08 sacrificed 14 members in this battle. More than half of their team members were dead.

Yang Mingzhi, Liu Furong, and Gu Dongyang led their teams and killed the remaining four imperial operators before they finally vented their anger.

Yang Mingzhi scanned through Liu Furong’s team and frowned. “Why isn’t the regiment commander with you?”

Liu Furong gritted his teeth. The moment they left the second line of defense safely and entered the area of the first line of defense, he knew what their regiment commander did to clear the path for them. If they were walking on the edge of death, their regiment commander was on the path of death.

“Leader Liu! Where is the regiment commander?” Yang Mingzhi felt that something was amiss when he saw Liu Furong hesitating to answer his question. His voice turned louder and sharper.

“Regiment commander stayed at Ailan to clear the path for us.” Liu Furong finally said the truth.

“Bastard!” Yang Mingzhi kicked Liu Furong’s mecha in anger.

Liu Furong had suffered some internal injury before this so when Yang Mingzhi kicked him, he vomited out mouthfuls of blood.

He bore with the pain in his chest and didn’t try to explain himself. Ever since he accepted Ling Lan’s order and left with the transport team, he knew that he would be despised by everybody in 250. However, Ling Lan’s cold gaze at that time prevented him from denying her orders. He had no choice but to leave.

“Which direction will he be coming from?” Yang Mingzhi took a deep breath and controlled his worry and anger.

“I don’t know.” Liu Furong was really clueless. Ling Lan never told him about her plans. He wanted to ask him but he had always got stopped by her piercing gaze.

“If you don’t know anything, why did you follow him to the battlefield then?” Yang Mingzhi scolded furiously.

“There is no need to blame Leader Liu. No one can stop our regiment commander when he makes a decision, not even you, Leader Yang.” A cold voice sounded behind them. It was Han Jijyun who had finished searching for survivors.

“I just want to know which direction our regiment commander will be coming from so that we can go and reinforce him.” Yang Mingzhi knew that Ling Lan was a resolute person. He blamed Liu Furong because he was angry at himself. Because before this mission, Ling Lan stopped him from going and allowed Liu Furong to go instead.

Han Jijyun looked at Yaqi’s direction. He said with certainty, “Regiment commander will come from Base Yaqi’s direction.”

“Why? They have found you. Base Yaqi will definitely be on alert. They’ll search this area.” Yang Mingzhi was confused.

“The transport team is on the way back to Base 013 now. Who are they supposed to be looking for?” Han Jijyun replied indifferently.

Yang Mingzhi’s eyes lit up. “Regiment commander wants to make use of this?” Yaqi would definitely want to catch them. Hence, they would send all their soldiers out and chase after them. During this time, Ling Lan, who was behind Base Yaqi, could sneak past them. Of course, Ling Lan had to enter the first line of defense first.

“I believe that our regiment commander will succeed.” Han Jijyun looked at the direction of Base Yaqi firmly. ‘His boss is not a weak person like him. He will definitely escape and come back to Base 013 alive.’

“Since that’s the case, Leader Liu, Leader Han, bring your teams back and lead the transport team back to the base. We’ll stay here and wait for our enemy.” Yang Mingzhi thought for a moment before making this decision.

Han Jijyun didn’t reject this suggestion. He looked at Yang Mingzhi and nodded. Then, he brought his team and Liu Furong’s team back to the base. Their team members were all injured and had reached their limit. Of course, Han Jijyun didn’t forget the three survivors he found.
