Chapter 493: 493
Ling Xiao's words made the monitoring room quiet down, and the person who had disdained Qiao Ting's behavior suddenly felt awkward . Since this was the Federal Military Academy's battle royale, these people had not been regarding the battle royale as a real war . That was why they paid attention to these subtleties and forgot the cruelty of real war .
Ling Xiao saw that everyone had understood this point, and once again smiled warmly and looked at the big screen . This allowed the officers in the monitoring room to breathe a sigh of relief, and they were grateful that General Ling Xiao left them with some dignity .
At this time, Ling Xiao was thinking about where his baby girl was . He didn't believe that his valiant daughter would stay in the base camp… This was why parents were the ones who understood their children best!
Now that Qiao Ting had won his first battle, the next step was to lead his team to go around to the other side of Area P . They used the same method to finish the other military academies' assault teams on that side…
The actions Qiao Ting took caused those in Area P and S to become scared by the sigh of the wind . The rumor that there was a covert operations team lurking around the borders of Area S and P had quickly spread through the base camps within these two areas . In order to make sure their borders were safe, some military academies sent out battle teams to begin to form teams and carry out a search . Qiao Ting saw that the situation had become difficult for them, thus he retreated with his team back to Area S9 . He planned to move out after the rumors dissipated .
A 24-man mecha team was slowly flying above in the air; they were the patrol team from the nearby headquarters . They knew that there were attackers in the area, thus they were carefully patrolling around the perimeter of the headquarters to try and find some sort of clue . However, after searching for around one hour, they didn't really find anything odd .
Upon seeing the circular field below them, surrounded by towering trees, one of the leaders of the patrol battle teams used their radar to carefully search around the perimeter . Finding that everything was normal, he said to another battle team's team leader, "Brother Luo, why don't we rest up a bit here?" Nervous and high-focused patrol work made mechas use up a lot of energy . They had to replenish their energy all the time and eat every 2 to 3 hours .
The one called Captain Luo seemed to have the same idea and said, "Sure, Brother Hu . " He then immediately landed his mecha slowly on that circular field .
The circular field was very large . It didn't feel crowded even after the 24 mecha had landed . The two teams formed two obvious square formations with one on each side, and the two team leaders were at the front of their teams, creating a pointed corner, taking over the center of the circle . This kind of formation was both for defensive positioning and easier communication .
Although the two teams that were from different military academies had temporarily formed an alliance to find the mysterious assassins, they were still wary of each other . No one knew if the other side would suddenly betray and attack them .
After the two teams landed and rested up, their members all used their time to eat in order to replenish their expended energy . The battle royale had already begun . No one knew what could happen the next second, thus they needed to take breaks when they could .
"Brother Luo, who do you think attacked the assault teams of those military academies?" Captain Hu chewed on his food as he asked Captain Luo, who was in front of him .
Captain Luo replied, "I've looked at the area where Qiulin Military academy was ambushed . That area is an uninhabited area . There aren't any military academy headquarters there…" He faltered for a moment and his expression became slightly serious as he continued, "My guess is that the ones ambushing people are also an assault team . "
"Man!" Captain Hu inhaled a breath of cold air, finding it unbelievable . "That's impossible . Who would have the audacity to do that? It would make everyone angry . "
Captain Luo's expression darkened a bit and he said, "I hope that's the case . However, I don't think that, aside from assault teams, other battle teams would be so far away from their headquarters . "
Captain Hu moved his lips and began to calm down from his previous surprise . He felt that Captain Luo's logic made sense about the ambushing team being able to quickly and successfully perform an attack while not giving any chances for the other battle teams to react . Perhaps they took advantage of the fixed mindset that assault teams would not attack other assault teams, successfully ambushing them when they had their guard down .
"If that's the case, then we have to find the culprits quickly . Otherwise, with them hiding around nearby, the next victims could very well be us . " After saying that, however, Captain Hu suddenly became frightened . He looked at Captain Luo, who was in front of him, and thought, "Are they that team?"
Captain Hu secretly put his guard up . He couldn't have expected that after saying what he said, Captain Luo also became alert and put his guard up at the same time . It was just as Captain Hu said; no one knew who the culprits were . As such, there was a possibility that the temporary allied battle team could be the culprits .
His guard up, Captain Hu carefully asked, "Brother Luo, which academy's assault battle team do you think is capable of doing this?"
Captain Hu words made Captain Luo stare blankly into space for just a moment and lifted his worry . The members of Wufeng Military Academy who were standing before him had a ranking that was over 200, similar to their own Zheli Military Academy . They would definitely not be bold enough to do something like attacking assault teams . He also felt the distrust from the other side, thus he had a thought and said, "Even if it was a sneak attack, an assault team able to bring down Qiulin Military Academy, whose ranking is within 100, is definitely not weak . It would be impossible unless they were from the top 50 academies . "
Upon hearing Captain Luo's words, Captain Hu came to a sudden realization and immediately dropped his guard significantly . He quickly expressed his agreement, "That's what I was thinking . "
Seeing that his point of view was approved and agreed upon, Captain Luo wanted to say more . He continued and said, "Actually, I'm leaning more towards the top 10 military academies . No, no, it should be the top 4 . During each year's battle royale, weren't the top 4 military academies the ones who fought the most competitively?"
