Chapter 404 Revenge is coming
Five kilometers outside of Dawn City, a strange red light suddenly appeared on a quiet farmland, and then a crack appeared in space, from which Li Chenglong and his two companions jumped out.
Wang Shuang patted her chest in lingering fear, while Zhao Liying also looked somewhat pale. Seeing the two women's frightened expressions, Li Chenglong wisely remained silent. Many women hate having their vulnerable or unpleasant side shown to others, let alone a man.
The two women had recovered somewhat. Seeing Li Chenglong gazing at the Dawn Tower beside them, they exchanged a glance and blushed. Li Chenglong calmly said, "I didn't expect that alien to find my whereabouts so quickly. A level 13 mechanical life form with very high attributes, no wonder you were a little scared. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go back to the city."
After speaking, Li Chenglong took out an off-road vehicle. After the two women got in, they drove towards Dawn City. The city guards, who had received prior contact, had already opened the city gates, so they traveled without hindrance.
Li Chenglong first escorted Wang Shuang back to the special forces compound, and then returned to the Dawn Tower with Zhao Liying. As for the intelligence they had gathered, since it was already close to midnight, they would discuss it tomorrow morning.
When he got home, not wanting to disturb Yunlan's sleep, he didn't use the shared bathroom to wash up. After taking a quick shower in the communal bathroom, Li Chenglong went straight to his study. He had gained quite a bit in Seoul today, and he needed to organize it properly. By the time he came out of his study, it was already one in the morning. He went to the kitchen to make a cup of spiritual energy black orchid honey water, and then went back to his study to sleep.
When Li Chenglong woke up, he found Yunlan looking at him with her beautiful phoenix eyes. She said reproachfully, "Why didn't you go back to your bedroom to sleep? You slept in the study instead." Li Chenglong smiled and said, "I was busy until very late after I got back. I was afraid of disturbing your rest, so I didn't go back to the bedroom." Then he looked at his watch and found that it was already 7 a.m., so he quickly got up to wash up.
Little Li Yunhao had already gotten up and was eating breakfast independently, with Susie watching over him. Li Chenglong went over and kissed him on the cheek, played with his son for a while, and then went to wash his face and brush his teeth. Afterward, the two left the house and headed towards the mecha brigade's temporary base.
With Li Chenglong's space factory operating non-stop for the past week, 150 S1 mechs with various paint schemes have been manufactured. However, most of these are still stored in the mech brigade's warehouse. According to Li Chenglong, all pilots must pass his own test, and once they pass, they will be issued an S1 mech license. At that time, they will be able to truly own their own mech.
Today is the day of the assessment. Those who wish to be assessed can line up to register. The assessors are Li Chenglong, Yun Lan, and Yang Liu. Li Chenglong specifically emphasized that the assessment must be rigorous so that they won't perform poorly in the later battles.
Those wishing to participate in the assessment must first register with the person in charge, and then proceed to a prepared area to undergo the first stage of the assessment. Those who pass the first stage will then wait in the second assessment area. The S1 mech pilot assessment consists of five parts; only those who pass all five can be certified to operate the mech.
The first batch of participants consisted of 92 people, a large proportion of whom were special forces members. After a morning of rigorous testing, 40 people passed, with 10 being outstanding, 15 being excellent, and the rest being qualified. Li Chenglong and Yun Lan offered words of encouragement and then issued them S1 mecha pilot licenses. Among the outstanding candidates, three expressed their willingness to serve as instructors, responsible for assisting in training pilots, a request Li Chenglong readily agreed to.
In the afternoon, Li Chenglong and Yun Lan prepared to leave. There were members of the Special Mission Support Section 2 training drivers here, along with three newly joined instructors, so the two of them could do other things.
After discussing it, the two went to the Logistics Department. As the area of Dawn City expanded to 9000 square kilometers, the workload of the Logistics Department also increased dramatically. In order to cope with this situation, Li Chenglong divided the Logistics Department into several departments. Some departments were responsible for daily necessities, some departments were responsible for providing various raw materials to the two industrial zones, and some troops were responsible for grain, oil, rice and flour. Due to the special nature of Dawn Rice and high-grade Dawn Rice, there was also a special department responsible for them.
Li Chenglong and Yun Lan arrived at the security department's gate without prior notice. The security guards, seeing them, opened the gate and let them in. Li Chenglong stopped the security personnel who was about to call and report, saying, "No need to report, we're just taking a walk." He and Yun Lan then went inside.
However, because the two were so famous, Yun Qian and her deputies Ma Yuanyuan and Xiao Ya, who were working in the Logistics Department building, soon received the news. When they arrived at Li Chenglong's place, they found the two of them looking after several warehouses, and Yun Lan seemed to be testing the warehouses' sturdiness.
"Hello, Brother Li, City Lord, and Sister Yun." The three people stepped forward and greeted them. Li Chenglong said with a smile, "Hello, this is our newly built warehouse, right? It's not bad, the interior space is quite large, and it's also very sturdy." Yun Lan nodded in agreement, "Yes, with these warehouses, even if we are attacked by alien mechs, we won't suffer any damage."
Xiao Ya said, "Two city lords, we owe you a lot. You left some of the mech wreckage behind, saying that we could melt down those mechs and mix them into our metal to build warehouses. We did as you said, and we found that the warehouses made of these metals were indeed very sturdy."
Yun Qian looked at the three warehouses, which were already full, and asked in surprise, "Captain Li, what is this?" Li Chenglong smiled and said, "This is what I just collected yesterday. There's still a lot left. After I finish storing it, you can have someone sort it and send it to the appropriate department."
Yun Qian nodded, and just as she was about to say something, Li Chenglong's crystal phone rang. After answering, she heard Zheng Yong from the command headquarters say, "Old Li, the Eagle reconnaissance aircraft has detected that the enemy is approaching Dawn City, and they are coming from Seoul. There are several large warships and many flying mechs. Judging from this, there must be quite a lot of enemies coming."
Li Chenglong replied sternly, "Okay, Yunlan and I will be there right away. Notify all units to prepare for combat at the highest level!" After hanging up the phone, he said to Yunqian, "There's enemy activity, and they're coming on strong. Your logistics department should be careful. Yunlan and I are leaving now." With that, he and Yunlan quickly left.
Yun Qian immediately said to Ma Yuanyuan and Xiao Ya, "Sound the alarm in the Logistics Department right away, and then each department should handle the situation according to the established plan. Make sure to protect the safety of all supplies." After saying that, she rushed to the Logistics Department building.
Upon arriving at headquarters, reports came in from various units, indicating they were ready for battle and requesting instructions from headquarters. Li Chenglong briefly recounted the events of the previous night. Yun Lan smiled and said, "No wonder the enemy attacked so quickly. You not only wiped out almost all their supplies but also detonated those places. But how did they know you were in Dawn City? Didn't you use dimensional travel to get back?"
Li Chenglong slowly said, "Dimensional travel is good, but it will also leave an energy imprint in the original place temporarily. The strongest alien in Seoul has seen me and knows what my energy is like. With their level of technology, it is not difficult for them to find me. This is a flaw of dimensional travel, but I estimate that once I reach level 13 and have a stronger grasp of psionic energy, this flaw will be overcome."
After finishing his small talk, Li Chenglong immediately began to make arrangements: "The Dawn and the Tyrannosaurus fighters will take off together to engage their aerial enemies. The S1 mech units should not participate in the battle for the time being; it's not the right time yet. The other units, including the Rocket Force, the two army corps, and the city defense force, must be prepared for battle, and they must be prepared for a tough fight. As for that alien leader, if he comes, I will definitely try my best to eliminate him."
