Silicon Invasion

Zhang Zhi didn't go. In his words, the age gap between them was more than ten years, and the generation gap was too big. Besides teaching, he didn't hang out with kids.

Luo Rui felt that Zhang Zhi was exaggerating. Since he brought Luo Rui into the team, he hadn't shown his face a few times, let alone taught him. At least, he had never given Luo Rui private lessons.

However, Luo Rui didn't complain at all, because Zhang Zhi provided him with a platform, which was much more important than many courses. Because in his grade, perhaps except for the descendant of that unknown big shot, no one else could keep up with his progress.

Practicing in class was just garbage time for him. Practicing with those classmates was completely like bullying noobs, just like the three roommates, who were considered small experts in the grade, but Luo Rui felt that he could use archers, or even melee combat, to beat them all, a 1V3 beatdown.

The number one expert on the surface in the grade, Xiong Wu, couldn't last a round against his long-range fire user. Although everyone was improving rapidly, he wasn't idle either, and his energy points had exceeded a thousand. The option to increase agility attribute had also lit up after a long absence, and now he was just waiting to go out and level up this weekend.

By then, his strength would inevitably enter a faster period of improvement, and the gap with his classmates would widen even more.

As for the teachers, with Sun Yue's example in front, although it wasn't Luo Rui's fault, they didn't really want to practice with Luo Rui either. After all, being rubbed on the ground by a freshman wasn't something everyone could accept calmly.

In this case, although he learned some other written knowledge, Luo Rui, who was practically building a car behind closed doors, might not be improving as fast as playing 《Ace Mecha Pilot》 online.

And at this time, the importance of the Shining Knights, this team with a chuuni name, became apparent.

Although there were few members in it, those who were favored by Zhang Zhi were all top players in their respective grades, with good skill levels, and they could also lead Luo Rui to get in touch with future simulation battles and competition-related matters in advance.

These were all rare opportunities, so Luo Rui had a sincere feeling of gratitude towards Zhang Zhi.

"For us to break through ourselves!"

"For our new achievements!"

"For our luck!"

"Cheers!"

Although Zhang Zhi didn't come, he still provided remote support for everyone. Although Beishan Academy was a university, it was different from other universities with high degrees of freedom. Beishan Academy practiced semi-military management. Except for weekends, if you wanted to leave the school, you had to have relevant procedures.

Although Zhang Zhi wasn't very reliable in teaching, as a teacher of the academy, it was no problem for him to issue a leave permit for everyone, so thanks to him, they were able to go out and have fun.

Xinyang Restaurant

A restaurant with unpretentious decoration but a warm atmosphere. It was said to be a place where they often gathered for dinner. Judging from Niu Wei's skilled greeting to the receptionist as soon as he entered the door, it was true.

They asked for a private room on the second floor, and everyone filled their glasses. Luo Rui didn't drink alcohol, and his glass was filled with orange juice. Fortunately, the others, including Niu Wei, Wang Ming'an, and Zuo Kun, were all drinking various beverages.

Although there was no such thing as piloting a mecha after drinking, a mecha pilot was a profession that required them to be sober at all times, and drinking was a taboo. Throughout Blue Star, except for the Dvarivese Federation, which had no relevant requirements, all other countries prohibited mecha pilots from drinking.

"Haha, I have to say, Xiao Luo is really lucky. As soon as he came, we passed." After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and Niu Wei chuckled.

"This time, the terrain advantage was too great. It's a pity that only new users like Luo Rui can enjoy the newbie treatment once. Otherwise, if we had these conditions, we would have passed long ago."

"That's also because Xiao Luo is awesome. If other newbies had this opportunity, how come no one used this method to clear the level?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you're right." This was true. If you were carrying a burden just for a newbie benefit, it would be too unworthy. Besides, you might not be able to match with expert-level difficulty.

"Yeah, it's a pity that Zuo Kun didn't get this wave of achievements."

"It's okay, there will always be opportunities." Zuo Kun smiled bitterly, suddenly feeling like he had become an outsider.

"Let's try again tomorrow, maybe the expert difficulty will be lowered." Tong Yue noticed Zuo Kun's low mood and quickly comforted him.

"Yeah, since there's a first time, there will be a second time. Let's not talk so much today, let's have a happy meal, and continue to work hard tomorrow!" Niu Wei also noticed something, laughed, and then took the lead in eating, and the atmosphere became lively again.

Only Lin Xinxin was silent on the side. To be honest, in the entire team, because of the ranged support binding relationship, her relationship with Zuo Kun was the closest, and she understood Zuo Kun the most.

Therefore, she could more clearly understand the difference between Zuo Kun and Luo Rui. Compared to the optimism of others, she had some different opinions.

She believed that in today's scenario, if Luo Rui was replaced by Zuo Kun, even if the ranged fire strength of the two was similar, they might not be able to clear the level.

Because of the location and the special nature of the mecha, compared to those melee fighters surrounded by enemies, she could more easily understand the entire battlefield, and she was more aware of the role Luo Rui played in the entire battle.

Killing the charging Warg was the professional positioning and responsibility of the ranged fire user. Zuo Kun could also do it. According to the coordinates she provided, injuring the Wolf King with explosive bullets, Zuo Kun could also do it.

But then, several Wargs crossed the blockade line and invaded the ranged support mecha. There was a huge gap between the two here.

Luo Rui's melee strength surprised Lin Xinxin, which Zuo Kun did not possess. Facing the Wargs rushing up, if Zuo Kun was there at the time, the ranged support mecha would probably have to transfer to other melee mecha to avoid them.

In this way, taking advantage of the situation to pursue the injured Wolf King, firing several rounds of precise shots, until the Wolf King was killed, all of this became nonsense. Because Zuo Kun, he couldn't create a good shooting environment on his own. Even if he was lucky enough to wait for other melee mecha to come and help resolve the crisis, it would take an unknown amount of time, and the Wolf King would have run off to who knows where, or would command the remaining Wargs to all charge and attack.

Under the chain reaction, they had no hope of winning.

So Lin Xinxin believed that the key to the victory of this battle was Luo Rui's unexpected melee ability, the ability to independently resolve crises.

Therefore, this battle did not contain any luck at all. If Zuo Kun could not do these things...

Just as Zuo Kun's closest teammate, she didn't know how to say this. Zuo Kun might not talk much, but he was an extremely proud person. If this was not said well, it would not only not have a positive effect, but might even produce unpredictable side effects.

Looking at Luo Rui, who was carefree and buried his head in eating like crazy while everyone was laughing and joking, Lin Xinxin felt a little itchy in her teeth. So annoying!
