Silicon Invasion
#233 - Lucky
Fifteen Shadow Wolves surrounded the two long-range artillery mechs. Perhaps it was because Luo Rui's Archer-3 was a bit more agile, or perhaps because Zuo Kun's position was better amidst the raging flames. In any case, Luo Rui attracted more of the Shadow Wolves' attention, with about sixty percent of them charging towards him.
Although a large number of wolves had many advantages, they also had weaknesses.
That was their limited space for movement.
And this was extremely fatal when facing a marksman like Luo Rui.
There was no need to block movement, and there were no blind spots for attacks, because there were simply too many enemies around.
Picking two lucky ones that caught his eye from the wolf pack, Luo Rui sent each of them an armor-piercing round.
At the same time, he raised his left arm, and the roaring machine gun stopped a Shadow Wolf pouncing in mid-air. The greatsword wielded in his other hand knocked another Shadow Wolf back.
Under the cover of the two walls of fire and Luo Rui, Zuo Kun continued to perform steadily, killing two Shadow Wolves. The monster-clearing efficiency of the dual long-range artillery, due to Luo Rui's extraordinary performance, far surpassed those of the melee teammates.
"Damn it, how is this kid so fierce?"
The onlookers outside the arena exclaimed again at this time. This was already the unknown number of times they had made similar remarks today.
Originally, they thought Luo Rui's long-range artillery operation just now was the peak, but they didn't expect this guy's close combat ability to be just as outstanding.
Whether it was the Warrior-7 or the Gladiator-3, they all had extra hydraulic systems at the joints to provide power. Therefore, for the Archer-3 to perform certain similar close combat attack techniques, it was actually much more complicated and difficult than for melee mechs.
This was also why the Archer-3 and the Warrior-7 had almost the same skeletal armor, but were still divided into melee and long-range artillery types.
But these difficulties seemed to not exist in front of Luo Rui. Watching that Archer-3, under the cover of the machine gun, skillfully attacking, while at the same time, the two recoilless rifles did not stop at all, still maintaining the highest firing frequency.
If they didn't know Luo Rui's age and background, they would definitely think that some ace was teasing them.
"Monster!"
An onlooker murmured. At this moment, these two words had no derogatory meaning at all and were recognized by most people.
In another room that resembled a conference room, a middle-aged man with a ruddy complexion, slightly lazy eyes, and an old-fashioned slicked-back hairstyle neatly combed, was blowing on the hot air of the teacup in his hand while watching the screen in front of him quite seriously.
The familiar scene on the screen was exactly Luo Rui and their challenge.
"This is the kid that Lao Bai found?"
The middle-aged man asked the person next to him with interest.
"Yes, Headmaster!"
"Haha, then your kid's loss is not unjustified. Lao Bai has done a great job this time." Beside the headmaster was also a middle-aged man of about the same age, his face carved like a knife, filled with seriousness and tenacity. The aura nurtured by years of military career had been rooted in his temperament, and his sharp eyes made it difficult for people to look him in the eye.
Originally, he was also watching with great interest, happy that the school could include such a talent, but the headmaster's words suddenly ruined his mood.
However, he knew that the headmaster didn't mean anything else. Back then, they had been on the battlefield together and were comrades who could entrust their backs to each other. The headmaster said this entirely to tease him for fun. After so many years, this guy's personality was still so bad.
"Lao Bai has indeed done a great job this time!" Although his good mood was ruined, he still nodded seriously, affirming Director Bai's achievements: "With this kid around, we don't have to worry about the competition with Nanling for the next four years."
"Yes, isn't the first year's exchange competition coming up soon? Originally, I was still worried about the newly added freshman competition segment this year, afraid that your kid alone couldn't shoulder the burden, but now I find that the ancient saying 'there will always be a way' is really too true." Perhaps it was because only old friends were around that the usual dignified mask was completely gone, and his mentality seemed to have returned to his youth, making his words more unrestrained: "Fortunately, Lao Bai discovered this little monster early, otherwise if Nanling snatched him away, we would be disgusted to death by those old guys."
"Indeed, but his name is Luo Rui, don't give people nicknames randomly." The serious man was very serious.
"Okay, okay, I also don't know how Lao Bai discovered this Luo Rui. I still find it hard to believe that he found him from just a video clip." The headmaster shook his head, somewhat sighing, this luck was a bit too good.
"It is indeed a bit strange, do you want to re-investigate it again?" The serious man looked serious. He thought about it and agreed with his friend's point of view.
"Hey, I'm just saying, don't make a big deal out of it. If it were you, would you be willing to send this kind of genius out to do something? Is it because he snatched some opportunities from your kid that you're taking revenge here?" The headmaster looked at his old friend with a suspicious look, but his expression was more exaggerated, and it seemed that there were more funny elements.
The serious man remained silent, pretending not to hear.
This was not because he was guilty of being told the truth, because it was not enough. He had not stooped to the point of targeting a child.
As for the matter caused by the assistant instructor named Sun Yue, he only learned about it afterward. Sometimes he was quite annoyed by such things. He did not object to his subordinates trying to curry favor with him, but some people's ideological height did not go up, so they always liked to use their malice to speculate on his intentions, resulting in some things being done really ugly. If it was done, he would turn a blind eye and let it pass.
But the things were done ugly, and in the end, they were not done. The most important thing was that they were publicized, under his banner, making him quite embarrassed. For this kind of person who gave him eye drops, he must clear the relationship.
As for why he didn't speak, it wasn't because he was guilty, but because he knew his old friend's bad personality. Although he had restrained himself in front of outsiders after becoming the headmaster, when the two were alone, he would relapse into his old ways. The most annoying thing was that this guy was half a level higher than him in rank.
As the saying goes, an official one level higher can crush people to death. In fact, half a level can also crush people.
If he continued the conversation at this time, he didn't know what ivory could come out of this guy's dog's mouth, which would only affect his mood.
However, after so many years of getting along, the two people's relationship is still so good, and the serious man also has his own knack.
As for what the trick is?
It's very simple, that is, ignore him!
Let him feel uncomfortable by himself.
"Lao Ji, do you know, you can't make friends like this."
"..." Lao Ji, also known as the serious man, was as if he was deaf at this time, and all his energy was focused on the screen in front of him. Seeing this scene, the headmaster could only let out a sigh of loneliness.
