The Prince of Military Academy Is Actually A Girl! Chapter 110 - 110 Hide and Seek

Chapter 110: Hide and Seek?

Chapter 110: Hide and Seek?

Editor: H2dH2mr After giving her thanks, Ling Lan no longer paid any attention to the man or his response; all her focus was now on the cha combat match about to begin.

This caused the man beside her to throw a speechless glance at her — well, that was rather perfunctory.

Shouldn’t she be more sincere when thanking soone?!

Ling Lan was oblivious to the internal grumbles of the man beside her.

After choosing God view, the image before her eyes shifted instantly, revealing two very different images.

One image was focused on the red cha, while the other showed that the silver cha had already hidden itself underneath one of the sand dunes.

The colour of the cha was gradually changing to match the colour of the dune.

Ling Lan found this rather interesting, and put her attention on the silver cha’s image, silently saying in her mind to zoom out …

Unthinkingly, she had stumbled upon the correct controls.

The image zood out, showing that the hiding place of the silver cha was completely invisible from a high bird’s eye view.

Using the sa thod again, Ling Lan zood out the image of the red cha as well.

Only then did she find out that the red cha was actually not that far away from the silver cha — it was just that the red cha had been circling around without getting close to the other’s hiding spot.

Now, the whereabouts of both cha had been observed.

On the lower left corner of the image, there was a number counting down.

Ling Lan guessed that this was probably the official start ti of the match.

The number was now already at 73, so the match would probably start about a minute or so later.

Moreover, Ling Lan also noticed that after she chose a viewing angle, it was as if she had entered a separate space.

She couldn’t feel the presence of anyone around her — it was as if she was the only one watching this battle, all disturbances screened away.

Ling Lan was comfortable with this — at least that man with the dangerous presence would not be able to disrupt her from enjoying the cha fight.

anwhile, on Little Four’s end, not only did he search out all kinds of control systems for cha fighting gas, he also looted all the information about other control systems that could be found within the virtual world.

After he returned from his pillaging, Little Four told Ling Lan that this kind of low-level mistake would never happen ever again.

Little Four’s mood was actually terrible right then.

He had never expected that the virtual world would have a ga directly implanted inside it, and that every ga would have different control systems.

This threw him, a virtual god, for a loop, causing him to lose face greatly in front of his boss this ti.

He still rembered how he had proudly proclaid himself as the god of the virtual world to his boss once …

Who could have expected that there were things a god didn’t know …

it was such a slap in the face!

Ling Lan had no idea Little Four was tying himself up in knots over this; right now, she was patiently waiting for the countdown to reach zero.

Finally, when the clock displayed a string of zeroes, the initially circling red cha abruptly changed directions and flew straight towards the silver cha’s hiding spot.

Ling Lan supposed that it was very likely that, to avoid wasting ti with hide-and-seek, the system had directly inford the red cha of its opponent’s general position.

Ling Lan believed that, for fairness’ sake, the system wouldn’t give specific coordinates on the other’s location to either side.

Sure enough, the red cha’s subsequent actions proved this point.

In the air, while still about 5 km away from the silver cha’s position, the red cha suddenly launched a guided missile.

The mont the missile was fired, Ling Lan felt ripples pass through the image.

Little Four jumped in with an imdiate explanation, “This is a NNEMP1 missile.

It can disrupt the radar scanning of a cha.” It looked like in order to make the audience feel the scene better, the system had added in these visual effects to represent these originally invisible interactions.

“What is the furthest distance that a cha’s radar scanning can reach?” asked Ling Lan thoughtfully.

“Depends on the cha’s radar model.

A common cha will typically be able to scan up to 2000 tres, an interdiate cha up to 2500 tres, and an advanced cha up to 3000 tres.

Of course, there’s still special-class cha which can scan up to 4000 tres.” “Could the silver cha be a special-class cha?” “At J8 level, it’s very likely to possess a special-class cha.

But for a special-class cha, not only must the cha operator’s operational skill be up to level, the operator must also have gathered a certain amount of ritorious exploits,” explained Little Four to Ling Lan as he browsed through the information he had found.

Ling Lan nodded.

Now she understood why the red cha had fired the NNEMP missile from 5 km away.

It was probably afraid the opponent was a special-class cha, whose radar was capable of sensing 1000 tres further than his own cha.

It was a reality that the red cha couldn’t afford to lose, so he couldn’t gamble on this possibility.

The red cha had just fired the NNEMP missile when it transford into humanoid shape in mid-air and slowly descended to land on the ground.

Next, the red cha’s colour slowly faded to match the colour of the desert.

“This is the ‘chaleon system’ only equipped on advanced cha and beyond.

It allows a cha’s external colour to change according to its environnt.” Little Four continued to clarify things for Ling Lan.

Originally, all this information would be taught to Ling Lan in the scout academy before she turned 13; however, since Little Four had let Ling Lan co into contact with the virtual world and cha fights prematurely, Little Four had no choice but to beco the transmitter of knowledge.

A ring-shaped object slowly erged from the shoulder area of the red cha which had turned into the colour of the desert.

Then, the object slowly and carefully snuck towards the position of the silver cha.

“The ring-shaped object is an IE-type1 heat detector, the newest model on the market.

It’s considered a type of retrofit, not an original component of cha.

This model of heat detector can sense heat up to a distance of 1500 tres.” Little Four was quick to react, introducing this new item that had appeared to Ling Lan imdiately.

Ling Lan nodded silently.

Even if the K8 cha also had an IE-type heat detector equipped, the red cha would not be disadvantaged.

The two chas had initially been set apart greatly by their long-range sensing capabilities, but with this move by the red cha, the playing field had been levelled.

Of course, if the other side didn’t have the newest heat detector equipped, this move would have given the red cha the upper hand.

A well-tid and well-used NNEMP missile — it looked like the red cha had co fully prepared for this cross-level challenge.

It hadn’t issued the challenge recklessly, and had co ard with ticulous strategy and tactics to handle the J8.

It seed like this match wouldn’t be a quick one-sided battle; if the J8 wasn’t careful, an upset might really be possible …

Ling Lan felt her enthusiasm surge.

Ling Lan wanted to know how the silver cha would react after facing the loss of its radar.

She turned her attention to the silver cha’s side and was promptly shocked still by the other’s decision.

Apparently, when the silver cha had seen its radar fizzle out, it had stopped to think.

After about one minute, the operator chose to subrge the cha’s entire body into the sand dune and shut down the cha.

The scene truly beca deathly silent.

This action naturally stunned Ling Lan.

Even though Ling Lan didn’t know much about cha, she still knew that shutting down a cha would also remove the defensive shield originally shielding the outside of the cha.

In other words, the defensive ability of the cha currently would depend solely on the strength of the tal it was made of.

If it was coincidentally shot by the opponent’s laser gun, it would definitely take heavy damage.

Ling Lan knew very well that doing this on the battlefield was pretty much a suicidal act.

However, in this one-on-one fight, it worked wonders.

This move by the J8 cha made the J6 cha’s heat detector beco utterly useless.

In other words, the J8’s choice levelled the playing field once again.

To discover the other, they could rely on nothing else but their eyes; no external force or gadget could be borrowed.

At this point, Ling Lan thought of another question.

“The cha is inactivated, losing its defences.

Our human bodies naturally produce heat — won’t that be picked up by the heat detector?” Little Four answered, “Because the protective clothing that cha operators wear have heat-shielding properties, so the heat detector won’t be able to pick up their body heat.” Ling Lan understood now.

No wonder the J8 cha had chosen to shut down without any hesitation.

He had this to fall back on.

The J6 cha which had already changed colour to rge with the desert sand began to walk across the desert.

Ling Lan thought that the weight of the cha itself would make it very difficult for the cha to move, but unexpectedly, the cha walked on the sand as if it were normal flat ground, as if it took no extra effort whatsoever.

She took a closer look at the cha’s feet, and found that only its sole would sink into the sand, as if its big and heavy body did not exist.

Could it be that this virtual world wasn’t able to simulate realistic effects?

Ling Lan was doubtful.

Little Four sensed Ling Lan’s puzzlent, and hurried to clear it up.

“It’s not like that.

These cha co with their own levitation system, which can decrease the cha’s body weight.

Here, the J6 cha is still not being operated to its maximum capabilities.

If a top-notch cha operator were controlling it, its feet wouldn’t sink at all into the yellow sand.

Now that would truly be a display of walking on firm ground.” So that’s how it was!

Ling Lan felt as if she had beco more knowledgeable.

She found that things related to cha couldn’t be viewed through the lens of normal logic.

Right now, her interest towards cha was rising in a vertical line — the long-slumbering cha dream of hers began to stir and flare up once more.

Goddammit, she really wished she owned a cha right now!

Ling Lan’s heart throbbed with excitent and impatience.

“Boss, if you want cha, please get over your fear of heights first!” whined Little Four with a pout.

The main reason he still hadn’t given Ling Lan any sort of cha training till now was that Ling Lan was still afraid of heights.

Little Four’s words caused even Ling Lan’s thick-skinned face to turn red.

Although her fear of heights had indeed gotten better under forceful training over this duration of ti, she wasn’t sure if she was really over it yet …

and so, Ling Lan pretended not to have heard anything, looking away from Little Four’s accusative stare.

She turned her attention back to the images before her.

The red cha carefully approached the silver cha’s position.

However, all he knew was the other’s general position and not the actual position, so when he found that the heat detector wasn’t picking anything up, he stopped moving and began to consider what to do next.

By now, the J6 cha must have probably figured out that the heat detector was useless.

The J6 cha seed to beco a little nervous now.

Ling Lan saw that, with every step he took, he would look around warily.

After many close brushes, he finally got closer and closer to the sand dune that the J8 was hiding in.

Who would discover the other first?

The J8 was hidden within the sand dune, making it very difficult for the J6 to discover it.

On the other hand, the J8 had shut down his cha, and was in a blinded state.

Both sides were not able to see the other — was this match destined to be a ga of hide-and-seek from beginning to end?
