Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Yong-guang groaned, and only then did he open his eyes. Finding himself tied up tightly, his expression changed. He was just about to shout when he saw his companion standing outside, and his face lit up with joy as he shouted, "Brother Xi, save me!"
Seeing this, the white-clothed youth's expression turned cold as he said, "Yong-guang, I want to ask you. Didn't I say I wanted to be friends with Luo Lang? I just asked you to help me ask him out for a meeting. Why did you do this for me? "
Yong-guang's eyes flickered. He looked at Luo Lang, and then at the white-clothed youth, deliberating for a moment before saying, "Actually, I also wanted to ask Luo Lang out openly, but the companion beside him was very vigilant. Every time I got close, that person wouldn't let me get any closer. Although I said I had no ill intentions and just wanted to get to know him, the other party still wouldn't believe me. In the end, I had no choice but to use this move. I had originally planned to explain the situation when we reached the destination, but unexpectedly, it angered Luo Lang, who knocked me out halfway there. "
At this point, Yong-guang hung his head dejectedly and apologised, "Sorry, Luo Lang, I've caused you to misunderstand."
"Was all this really just your idea?" Despite the other's explanation, Luo Lang did not let down his guard. His right hand's fingers were still gripped tightly around the other's neck — if there was the slightest movement, he would be able to finish off the other immediately. Meanwhile, this action of his was also a silent warning to the others not to act rashly — he had a hostage in his hands.
Hearing Luo Lang's question, Yong-guang replied, "Yes, I'm a hacker, so I could only use hacker methods to ask you out." Yong-guang was rather proud of his methods, but very quickly became discouraged again. "I had originally wanted to use the Military Medical Research Centre's system to send you a message, but that place was too difficult to break into. In the end, I could only use the treatment centre's system. Luckily, you didn't suspect anything."
Yong-guang's words explained why the message had been sent from the treatment centre. This made Luo Lang somewhat believe him, but he also secretly despised himself. It was just as Boss Lan had said — he only had the bravery of a martial artist, but lacked the cunning of a wise man. He had actually failed to detect such a simple loophole. If not for the fact that everything that had happened afterwards had been so out of the ordinary, he might not even have noticed it in the end.
At this moment, Luo Lang decided that if he had the chance, he would definitely seek out Han Jijun to give him some special treatment. Even if he could not become a wise man like Han Jijun, he could not let the other's scheme to use such a simple scheme to lure him out... this was really too embarrassing. he was..... he could already predict that he would be mocked by the other's when he returned..
"Did you tamper with the hover car too?" Luo Lang continued to ask.
Yong-guang's dispirited demeanour was swept away, and he said proudly, "Of course. These are all small cases." He was still very confident in his own professional abilities.
The other's demeanour made Luo Lang's suspicions fade a little. As if understanding that the coldness on Luo Lang's face had faded a little, the white-clothed youth immediately said, "You see, Luo Lang, I really don't have any ill intentions. I just feel that we hit it off very well, so I wanted to get to know you." At this point, a trace of grievance appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Luo Lang's heart softened involuntarily, but Ling Lan's cold face once again appeared before his eyes. Those cold and sharp eyes pierced straight into Luo Lang's heart, causing his heart to clench once more. His heart, which had initially softened, once again hardened.
When Luo Lang's gaze regained its cool, the white-clothed youth's body shuddered involuntarily, and his initially aggrieved expression seemed to stiffen for a moment...
Ling Lan, who had been doing missions in Mecha World, suddenly stopped what she was doing, causing Little Four beside her to ask in confusion, "Boss, what's wrong?"
"My spiritual power has been triggered!" replied Ling Lan with a frown.
"What's going on?" Little Four was very surprised. He had not sensed any spectres near them in the virtual world, so it was even more impossible for them to have attacked Boss.
"Is it from the virtual world?" asked Ling Lan to Little Four. When it came to the virtual world, Little Four knew better than she did.
"No, there are no spectres within a 100 li radius. Unless there is another existence equal to me in this world, even so, it would not be able to escape my senses," replied Little Four confidently.
Ling Lan's brow furrowed even tighter. Since it was not from the virtual world, where had this attack come from?
Right then, Ling Lan had already forgotten that during the grand armed melee, in order to protect Zilong and the others, she had released several strands of her own spiritual power and stored them in their mindspace. At that time, Ling Lan had been afraid that they would lose their minds and make the wrong decision in a moment of crisis, so she had left these strands of spiritual power behind to stimulate them to regain their composure at a critical moment...
Originally, she had planned to take them back after the grand armed melee, but due to a freak combination of factors, she had been assassinated and left school in a coma to return home. When she woke up, she had taken Mu Shui-qing as her master and trained in Divine Command, causing her to forget to ask her companions to take back her spiritual power.
With the passage of time, these few strands of spiritual power were finally assimilated by the spiritual power of her companions, becoming a part of them. However, there was an unexpected benefit — when her companions were attacked by spiritual power users, Ling Lan would be able to sense it. However, at this time, Ling Lan did not know the reason for this, so she was extremely puzzled as to where this attack had come from.
"I need to go offline. I keep feeling uneasy." Ling Lan decided to be true to her instincts and immediately logged out of the virtual world.
In the villa of Ling Lan's team, there was a room on the third floor that was specially used to store the login pods for the virtual world. The moment Xie Yi returned to the team dormitory, he ran straight up to the third floor. As long as it was not meal time yet, Boss Lan, Luo Lang, and the others would be in the virtual world. Xie Yi needed to find Boss Lan to discuss how to persuade Luo Lang to accept this mission from the military academy before Luo Lang knew about it.
It turned out that 10 days later was the first assessment for the 5th years to apply for the various army divisions. It could be said that this was definitely related to the future of those examinees, and also related to the reputation of the First Men's Military Academy.
This was because the students who passed this first assessment would receive the best resources from the army division, receive the best grooming, and go to the best unit for development. Meanwhile, in the subsequent assessments, the treatment would not be as good. This was also an assessment that all the military academies would do their best to fight for.
The assessment teams sent out by the army divisions would not only come to the First Men's Military Academy, but also to the other military academies. Those places would focus on assessing the students of all the other military academies — it could be said that the competition was extremely fierce. Therefore, the military academies placed the most importance on this first assessment every year. It should be known that in the past, the First Men's Military Academy had taken up more than half of all the examinees who had passed — this was also the reason why the First Men's Military Academy had always been ranked above all the other military academies.
The military academy naturally hoped that their honour and glory could continue on, and thus had higher expectations for each segment. They hoped that they could achieve perfection and leave a good impression on the examiners of the various divisions. They hoped that the examiners would be merciful during the assessment. And the most crucial segment was reflected in the reception...
Because the First Men's Military Academy was filled with men, they were not like the other mixed-gender military academies, who could send out beautiful girls to receive the examinees. This time, they had received news that their arch-rival, the Federation Co-ed Military Academy, would send out a team of supposedly the most beautiful girls to welcome the examiners. This made the upper management of the First Men's Military Academy very nervous.
If they still sent out careless boys to receive the examinees this time, with a comparison, would that annoy the examiners? Thinking that this might affect the examinees' results, they were burning with anxiety as they racked their brains for a solution. No one knew who had suggested that there should also be good-looking boys among the boys, such as the first-year Luo Lang (Because Luo Lang had taken part in the wagered fight, many people were familiar with him — even the upper management had heard of him). This was like a life-saving straw for them, and they decided to find some handsome and attentive youths to handle this matter.
In the end, after some research, everyone came to the conclusion that the first-year freshmen were the most suitable for this job. They were innocent, not as slippery as the older cadets — if they really did make a mistake, they believed that on account of their young age, those examiners would let bygones be bygones.
In the end, this matter was handed over to the New Cadet Regiment. Who asked Luo Lang to be a member of the New Cadet Regiment? Moreover, the New Cadet Regiment was the only recognised organisation among the new cadets — who else could they turn to if not them?
Xie Yi had been stopped by a classmate precisely because of this matter. Their first-year head teacher had asked that classmate to pass on a message for him, asking him to go to the head teacher's office. (Ever since Zilong and Li Yingjie had been injured, Xie Yi had temporarily replaced them, becoming Wu Jiong's assistant to help Wu Jiong handle the matters of the New Cadet Regiment. This was also why he had asked for Xie Yi.)
The moment Xie Yi arrived at the head teacher's office, she saw that Wu Jiong was also there. She had a hunch that this might be related to the New Cadet Regiment. Reality proved that Xie Yi's guess was correct. The head teacher had directly informed them of the intentions of the academy's administrators — their New Cadet Regiment would be in charge of the reception this time. Moreover, he had casually mentioned Luo Lang's excellence in front of them, suggesting that Luo Lang was the most suitable person to lead the team.
Wu Jiong and Xie Yi could only smile wryly at these words. The head teacher's words had allowed them to understand the intentions of the academy administrators — they had taken a fancy to the androgynous Luo Lang... but Luo Lang had always hated people talking about his feminine face. The two of them wondered if Luo Lang would be so enraged that he would flip over the principal's desk if he found out about the academy administrators' intentions.
Afterwards, the two of them had discussed it and felt that the only one who could handle Luo Lang was probably Boss Lan. Thus, the moment Xie Yi had returned to the villa, she had immediately run up to the third floor to look for Ling Lan to discuss this matter.
Xie Yi had just stepped into the room of the login pod when she saw the door to Boss Lan's login pod fly open. Ling Lan sat up neatly, preparing to come out of the login pod.
Seeing this, Xie Yi said happily, "Boss Lan, I happen to have something to discuss with you." That said, Xie Yi eagerly picked up Ling Lan's towel from the counter and walked over to hand it to Ling Lan.
"What is it?" Ling Lan asked as she took the towel from Xie Yi eagerly. She was about to go to the washroom at the side to wash her face.
