Once deemed a useless "Mech-Girl" and subjected to endless ridicule, she obtains an ancient mech core one day.
From then on, she embarks on a journey of growth in a world with both me...
The enemy's artillery fire came like a torrential rain. Ye Ling's team rushed left and right in the hail of bullets and barely blocked the enemy's crazy attack.
At this critical moment, internal conflicts broke out again.
"Mecha troops, what's wrong with you! Can't you even withstand such a small attack?" Ling Feng's voice exploded in the communication channel, his tone full of disdain and accusation.
Not to be outdone, Ada immediately retorted, "Where's the support from the cultivators? We're almost overwhelmed by the enemy, where are you guys enjoying yourself?"
The communication channel was suddenly filled with noise, with accusations and complaints coming one after another, and it was about to turn into a large-scale "blame-shifting" scene.
"Enough!" Ye Ling roared, and the communication channel instantly became quiet.
"It's already this late, and you're still fighting amongst yourselves? If you think your life is too long, just go and get yourself killed, and don't drag us down!"
Her sharp eyes swept over everyone on the screen, and her tone was as cold as ice that had been frozen for thousands of years.
"Internal conflict is our biggest enemy! If we continue like this, we will definitely lose! Do you all want to lose?"
Ling Feng and Aida were choked by Ye Ling's words and were speechless. The other team members also fell silent, and the atmosphere was stagnant for a moment.
Ye Ling took a deep breath and softened her tone a little, but still with unquestionable firmness.
"If you want to win, shut up and listen to my instructions!"
Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to raise any objections.
"Now, I need..." Ye Ling paused, his eyes falling on Monk Chen's portrait, "Monk Chen, come here."
Monk Chen came to the outside of Ye Ling's mecha cockpit anxiously.
"Ye... Ye Ling, mecha soldier, do you have any instructions?" He spoke a little stutteringly. Ling Feng had told him not to get too close to the mecha troops.
Ye Ling opened the cabin door and motioned for Monk Chen to come in.
In the narrow space, Monk Chen became even more nervous, always feeling that Ye Ling's eyes could see through everything.
"Master Chen, I know you are very interested in mecha technology." Ye Ling went straight to the point.
Monk Chen was startled and quickly waved his hands, "No... no, Master Lingfeng doesn't allow it..."
Ye Ling interrupted him, "I know. But now is not the time to worry about these things. We must win!" She called up a battlefield simulation. "Look, the cultivator's long-range attacks are very strong, but the mecha's close combat defense is superior. If we can combine the two..."
Ye Ling began to elaborate on the respective advantages of mechas and cultivators, and how to cooperate to maximize their strength.
She pointed at the screen and analyzed the enemy's weaknesses and her own strengths incessantly.
Monk Chen was so engrossed in what he heard that he completely forgot Ling Feng's warning.
Ye Ling's analysis was logically clear and well-reasoned. Even he himself had not expected that mecha and cultivation could be combined so perfectly!
"I understand!" Monk Chen slapped his thigh excitedly, almost bumping into the mecha's control panel. "We can use the cultivator's magic array to enhance the mecha's defense, and then use the mecha's firepower to cover the cultivator's long-range attacks!"
"That's right!" Ye Ling nodded in appreciation. "Now, go convince Ling Feng, and I'll take care of Ada."
Monk Chen took a deep breath, turned around and left, his back filled with unprecedented determination.
At the same time, Ye Ling also had a "friendly" exchange with Ada on the communication channel.
"Commander Ada, I know you look down on cultivators, but now is not the time to act on impulse. Do you want to win?"
Ada was silent for a moment, and finally squeezed out a word: "I want to."
"Then let's cooperate." Ye Ling's tone was firm and left no room for doubt.
Soon, a new battle plan was formulated.
The mecha troops charge in the front, and the cultivators provide support and spell attacks in the rear.
Ye Ling's mecha took the lead and rushed into the enemy formation, tearing through the enemy's defense line like a sharp knife.
Duan Yu's mecha followed closely behind, cooperating with him in perfect harmony, as if they were one.
The battle situation reversed instantly!
The enemy's artillery fire was blocked by the cultivators' magic circle, while the mecha troops were unstoppable and defeated the enemy step by step.
Kane's face turned pale as he looked at the retreating troops on the screen.
"Damn it! They actually united!"
"Report! Ye Ling and Duan Yu's mecha..." The communicator's voice stopped abruptly.
"...broke through our defense line and headed straight for the command center!" The communicator finally managed to utter the second half of the sentence, his voice trembling.
Kane slammed the table, "Activate the ultimate defense system!"
Ye Ling and Duan Yu's mechas were like two flashes of lightning, shuttling through the enemy army. Wherever they went, the enemy's mechas exploded and flames shot into the sky.
The two of them cooperated seamlessly, and they could understand each other with just a glance and a gesture.
"Oh my god, these two are just so good!" The spectators exclaimed in amazement. "Their chemistry is so good, they're even better than a couple!"
During the battle, Duan Yu's mecha moved slightly closer to Ye Ling's mecha. In the chaotic battlefield, he stretched out the mechanical arm of his mecha and gently held Ye Ling's mechanical hand.
At the touch of the cold metal, a warm feeling surged into Ye Ling's heart.
"Be careful." Duan Yu's voice was low and powerful, and it was particularly clear in the noisy communication channel.
"You too." Ye Ling responded with a slight smile on her lips.
Bella happened to see this scene, and her eyes turned red with jealousy.
"Hmph, showing off your affection will lead to a quick death!" Bella whispered with gritted teeth, controlling the mecha to rush towards Ye Ling, attempting a sneak attack.
"Be careful!" Duan Yu discovered Bella's intention and immediately stood in front of Ye Ling, taking Bella's attack head-on.
"Duan Yu!" Ye Ling shouted anxiously.
"I'm fine." Duan Yu's voice was still calm, but Ye Ling could feel that his breathing was a little unstable.
"Bella, are you crazy!" Ye Ling roared.
Bella sneered, "Winners take all, and on the battlefield, there's no such thing as madness."
Ye Ling's eyes turned cold, "Then don't blame me for being rude!"
She turned on all the power of the mecha, and the speed increased instantly. Like a stream of light, she circled behind Bella and hit her with one blow. Bella's mecha immediately lost control.
Kane looked at the defeated troops on the screen, his face pale.
He never imagined that his carefully planned tactics would be broken by two "useless people".
"Retreat!" Kane gave the order reluctantly.
The military exercise ended with the simulated enemy defeat.
Ling Feng and Aida also realized their mistakes and took the initiative to apologize to Ye Ling and Duan Yu.
The gap between the mecha troops and the cultivators gradually disappeared.
"Thanks to you this time." Duan Yu looked at Ye Ling with tenderness in his eyes.
Ye Ling smiled and said, "It's the result of our joint efforts."
"Next, there are even more difficult challenges waiting for us." Duan Yu's tone suddenly became serious.
Ye Ling nodded, "I know."
Suddenly, the alarm sounded again...
"A new simulated enemy has been detected, and the energy fluctuations are extremely strong..."
