135: Chapter 135: Furious Rage (One More Update) 135: Chapter 135: Furious Rage (One More Update) The soldiers present looked at each other and remained silent, as they had no idea what was happening and could only lower their heads.
Sovi turned and walked toward another storage depot upon seeing their silence.
Wu Feng followed apprehensively, cursing Morgan to himself.
As they went along, they saw soldiers standing straight at every storage facility door.
Even the patrolling soldiers were on foot, with no mecha in sight.
“Where are the mecha?
Where are the base’s mecha?
Why is it all human guards?”
Sovi incessantly scolded Wu Feng.
Wu Feng had beads of sweat forming on his forehead and replied to Sovi with a forced smile.
“Lord Sovi, please wait!
I’ll call Morgan over, and we’ll understand everything.”
“Bring him here immediately, right now!”
Sovi was almost enraged, as he had never encountered such an absurd situation during his inspections.
Wu Feng urgently yelled at a subordinate beside him.
“What are you standing there for, go!”
“Yes!”
The subordinate immediately reacted and dashed toward the main building in panic.
Sovi stood still with an ashen face, waiting.
Soon, Major Morgan rushed over, having received the report from a subordinate at the entrance that a senior inspector had arrived; he was waiting under the main building.
Having waited in vain for a long time without seeing anyone, he didn’t expect them to come here.
Seeing Morgan arriving, Wu Feng quickly said to Sovi.
“Sir, he’s here!”
“Officer, what are your orders?”
Morgan saluted calmly.
“Tell me, where are the mecha?
The ones inside the storage base?
Why haven’t I seen any except for those few at the main gate?”
Sovi asked, trying to contain his anger.
“Reporting, sir, all the mecha in the base were sent for maintenance.”
Morgan blatantly lied.
Hearing Morgan’s words, Wu Feng’s expression turned into a spectacle, and he leaned towards Morgan whispering softly.
“F*ck, don’t screw me over!”
“I’m not messing with you.”
Morgan replied with a slightly embarrassed expression.
Hearing this, Sovi burst out laughing and said to Morgan.
“Dozens of mecha in one base sent for maintenance at the same time, do you even believe such nonsense yourself?
Spit it out!
Where are the mecha?”
“Reporting, sir, to ensure the defense team remains in optimal combat condition to handle any emergency, all mecha were sent for maintenance.”
Morgan stubbornly kept on.
Hearing this, Sovi’s anger flared instantly, and he roared at Morgan.
“Do you think I’m an idiot?
Who maintains their equipment like this…”
Wu Feng saw Sovi lose his temper and felt a chill in his heart, realizing they were truly doomed.
While Sovi was furiously chastising Morgan, he suddenly heard a loud crashing noise from afar and immediately stopped to listen carefully.
Clang-clang-clang~
“That’s the sound of mecha in close combat, what exactly are you doing with the mecha?”
Sovi realized instantly and asked angrily.
“This…”
Seeing he had been exposed, Morgan was also a bit embarrassed.
“Speak up, if you can’t give me a satisfactory explanation today, do you believe I can have you dismissed?”
Sovi’s patience had reached its limit.
“Alright, I’ll tell you the truth.
A few days ago, a teacher from Imperial Court Academy came seeking our help.
Their students lacked Mechas for training, so I thought since we are all from the same side, I lent them the Mechas.”
Morgan couldn’t hold it in any longer and blurted everything out.
“You lent them Defensive Mechas for training?
Are you out of your mind or what?”
Sovi was nearly driven to his death by anger at Morgan.
However, faced with Sovi’s fury, Morgan was not the least bit flustered, and instead said earnestly,
“Sir, there was no choice.
That team lead teacher, I really couldn’t afford to offend.”
“Who is it?
How influential are they?”
“Oh, I dare not say.
Why don’t you go see for yourself?”
“Fine, I want to see which teacher it is.”
With immense annoyance, Sovi headed towards the training grounds.
“You’re killing me.”
With a grim face, Wu Feng cursed Morgan and hurriedly followed Sovi.
Morgan followed leisurely behind with an indifferent expression.
Soon, Sovi, fuming with anger, led the group near the training area.
They were met with Iron Guards engaging in close combat, while Mia was instructing these Iron Guards.
“Hit hard, aim for vital points, don’t treat them like your classmates, and don’t launch meaningless attacks, which will only expose your flaws.”
Upon seeing Mia, Sovi stopped abruptly, his eyes wide open in shock.
Wu Feng and the others were dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
Sovi immediately turned around and headed back, not forgetting to tell Morgan,
“Morgan, remember this, pretend I was never here today!”
“Understood, Sir.”
Morgan was almost rejoicing internally; the harsher he had been scolded earlier, the more exhilarated he felt now.
It’s your turn now.
“Let’s go, hurry up!”
Sovi quickened his pace to leave.
“You did this on purpose, right?
I’ll settle this with you later.”
Wu Feng then pointed at Morgan, his face dark, and took off running.
“Pfft, you’re not much braver than me.”
Morgan snorted coldly.
At dusk.
Su Ming maneuvered the Third Generation Mecha·Tiger towards the hangar.
He precisely parked the Mecha in its designated spot, then shut down the power system and climbed out of the cockpit.
Upon landing, Su Ming turned to look at the Tiger mecha.
Though his personal preference leaned towards more agile Mechas, he had to admit that the heavily armored ones were quite appealing as well.
Su Ming had grown somewhat fond of it during his time operating it.
If the budget allowed, he really should acquire a few more hangars to collect various models of Mechas, changing them daily would be exciting.
But soon, Su Ming dismissed this impractical idea; he couldn’t even afford his main Mecha, let alone think about buying secondary ones.
Su Ming sighed deeply and walked out, ending his training.
Not long after, Su Ming reached the training ground.
He saw Rhein and others still controlling the Iron Guard Mechas, engaging in combat training.
“Huh?
Where’s the teacher?”
Su Ming didn’t see Mia and began looking around.
Then he spotted Mia crouched in a corner, seemingly busy with something.
Curious, Su Ming walked over to Mia.
Quickly approaching her side, Su Ming noticed Mia hadn’t even realized his presence, still engrossed in tapping on the interface projected from her bracelet.
Su Ming bent down to look at the interface on Mia’s bracelet, his face showing a hint of surprise.
Ms.
Mia was fervently arguing with someone in a thread on the Star Cluster Forum.
