It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

Chapter 1227 Welcome Home

In the past, her instructors told her that she would only be able to learn under the mysterious Number Four if she understood something. She wondered what was the thing she had to understand. Even until now, she didn’t know the answer.

Little Blossom tensed up at Ling Lan’s words. He replied expressionlessly, “It’s nothing. It’s just some useless knowledge.”

In the learning space, Number Four was furious when she heard Little Blossom dismissing her profound knowledge.

“What do you mean by useless. It’s bewitching. The power to bewitch anyone within a second.’

Number Four wanted to teach that little bastard a lesson. However, before she could get her fists ready, she heard a cold voice beside her. “Number Four, forget it.”

“Number One!” Number Four stomped her feet in frustration.

“There’s no use forcing him if he doesn’t like it,” Number One appeared beside Number Four and said calmly.

“Do you mean that my skills are not worth learning?” Number Four raised head and looked at Number One with puppy eyes. Her eyes were dewdy and glistening as she looked at him. The emotions in them were overwhelming. Even a cold-blooded person would melt from her gaze. Unfortunately, Number One’s blood was like ice. He wasn’t affected at all.

“Boring.” Number Four glared at Number One before turning around elegantly and disappearing on the spot.

After a few seconds, Number One heaved a sigh of relief and his body relaxed a little.

“Number Four has become more powerful.” Number One frowned before going back to his own space.

“Little Blossom, the knowledge you were given might not seem useful now but in the future, it might be able to help you out of a life-or-death situation. Don’t underestimate any knowledge.” Ling Lan taught Little Blossom earnestly. She believed that all the knowledge her instructors taught her were useful.

Little Blossom listened to Ling Lan attentively. He pondered over her words and nodded thereafter.

“Do you still need to go back?” Ling Lan was afraid that Little Blossom would disappear from her side again.

Little Blossom shook his head. “My instructor said that I’ve learned everything I could. I just need to figure out how to use them on my own.” Little Blossom didn’t think that he needed the knowledge of bewitching, but since his master said that they might be useful, he would analyse them when he had the time.

“That’s good. Little Four misses you.” Ling Lan smiled.

Little Blossom’s eyes lit up. Little Four was the same as family to him. Little Blossom had always been discriminated against by his own kind so he treasured his relationship with Little Four (It couldn’t be helped. Little Blossom’s true form was the arch enemy of all intelligent entities).

“And I miss you too,” Ling Lan continued.

Little Blossom was touched. He wasn’t alone anymore.

“I... I miss you all too,” Little Blossom whispered.

“Come.” Ling Lan waved at Little Blossom.

Little Blossom rushed over and entered Ling Lan’s mindscape. Ling Lan hugged Little Blossom in her mindscape and said in a low voice, “Little Blossom, welcome home.”

“Yes, I’m back.” Little Blossom finally felt that this space was his home. He wasn’t just a guest anymore.

“Little Four is analysing some data. You can go and find him. He’ll be happy to see you.” Ling Lan believed that Little Four would be elated to see Little Blossom. He was always thinking about Little Blossom when he was bored.

“Okay, Boss.” Little Blossom nodded. He surreptitiously changed the way he addressed Ling Lan. He felt that Ling Lan was his family now. She wasn’t just his master

Ling Lan noticed the changes in Little Blossom. She felt happy for him. She preferred this happy Little Blossom to the one before.

Little Blossom disappeared immediately to look for Little Four and Meng Lan. Ling Lan didn’t care what they did in Base Nebula as long as they didn’t destroy it.

Compared to the original mainframe of Base Nebula, Ling Lan trusted the three of them more.

After some time, Little Four and Meng Lan held hands and came back to Ling Lan’s mindscape with Little Blossom walking behind them.

Little Blossom could devour all kinds of data. Little Four and Meng Lan were happy that he was back but they didn’t dare to touch him directly.

“How is it?” Ling Lan asked the moment she saw them.

“We found them.” Little Four was beaming happily. Not only did they locate their enemy, Little Blossom came back too. He wasn’t alone anymore. action

Ling Lan sat up straight as she motioned Little Four to continue.

Little Four continued, “We found the source of the turbulence. They should be coming from a number of imperial mechas.”

A virtual screen appeared beside Little Four as he spoke. The map of the Qingri wormhole was displayed on it. A few light-years away, there was a meteoroid zone. The meteorites there moved in unpredictable patterns so both the Federation and Twilight deemed this place as a dangerous zone. No spacecraft were allowed to get near the zone.

The source of the turbulence came from there.

“That explains why they’re there,” Ling Lan replied coldly. Only imperial operators had the ability to protect themselves in such a dangerous zone.

Their enemy made a lot of effort to ambush them. Ling Lan wondered if the mastermind hiding in the military took part in this scheme.

“What do we do now? Shall we order the mecha operators to prepare for battle?” Little Four asked.

“Only imperial operators can fight with imperial operators.” Ling Lan closed her eyes. When she opened them again, they were filled with killing intent.

“Where is the transport fleet?” Ling Lan asked.

“Here. They will reach our position in approximately 40 minutes.” Meng Lan pointed at a spot on the map.

“Meng Lan, order all the leaders and deputy leaders to prepare for battle,” Ling Lan ordered.

“Yes, master.” Meng Lan quickly released Ling Lan’s order to the leaders and deputy leaders.

“We’re not fighting now?” Little Four asked curiously.

“Let the transport fleet meet them first.” One day, her comrades would need to fight on a battlefield without her. This ambush would be a good training practice for them. Ling Lan decided to watch the performance of her brigade leaders first before moving out herself.
