Senior Colonel Mi liked this cold-looking young man but He Xuyang's reply broke his dream . “No, no, I brought him here so that he can form his own team . ”

“He is a captain?” Senior Colonel Mi said in a disappointed tone . However, it was understandable that such a powerful recruit would want to form his own team and create his own achievements .

After Senior Colonel Mi regained his composure, he felt puzzled . “He can complete his mission in other places too . Why must he come here? You made me happy for a moment . ”

He Xuyang gave an innocent face . “It was the general's order . ”

Senior Colonel Mi glanced at Ling Lan curiously . He understood that the general must have taken a fancy on the young man . He tidied his messy hair and tried his best to look good . He opened his communicator and said emotionlessly, “Name?”

Ling Lan knew that he was asking her so she replied, “Ling Lan . ”

“Ling Lan? Which Ling and which Lan?” Senior Colonel Mi asked instinctively . Before Ling Lan could reply to him, he suddenly raised his head . “You are Ling Lan?”

Ling Lan frowned . Senior Colonel Mi's expression made her feel that something was amiss . Things seemed to be getting out of her control .

He Xuyang was not surprised by the reaction . Senior Colonel Mi was the other reason why he decided to accompany Ling Lan to this place . He wanted to see his expression . He Xuyang knew Senior Colonel Mi for many years and this was the first time he saw a huge change of expression on the colonel's face . He was extremely satisfied .

He Xuyang smiled happily and replied, “Yes, this is Ling Lan . He was the one that defeated the captain of your subst.i.tute team in the special forces . ”

Ling Lan was speechless . Adviser He must be taking revenge on her . The mission this time would be hard . She didn't expect this place to be the headquarters of the special forces . She entered the lion's den herself, on the orders of her father .

Ling Lan suddenly realized that Ling Xiao liked to make things difficult for her . Throwing her into the First Men's Military Academy was an instance of it .

Ling Lan felt her head hurting . F**k, this is not logical . Shouldn't she be the one creating troubles for her father? She must get her revenge next time .

Senior Colonel Mi looked intently at Ling Lan . He was no longer relaxed and casual . He seemed like a wild beast that saw its prey . Ling Lan was vigilant .

Of course, no matter what Senior Colonel Mi's att.i.tude was, Ling Lan would not let down her guard . She knew that she had embarra.s.sed the special forces three months ago .

Senior Colonel Mi entered her name into his communicator and then pointed at the login pods beside him . “Just choose one and go in . The mainframe will tell you the relevant details of the mission . ”

After he finished talking, he entered his login pod . Before he closed his door, he paused . He reminded the two people in front of him with a stern face, “Don't press the force-stop b.u.t.ton again . Once I finish my mission in the virtual world, I will come out . ” He didn't want them to disturb him .

He Xuyang looked at Ling Lan in concern . He looked as though he wanted to wait for Ling Lan to finish her mission but Ling Lan asked him to leave . She told him that his father needed his a.s.sistance . He Xuyang was happy that he could leave . Truthfully, he didn't want to stay here any longer .

After He Xuyang left, Ling Lan was left alone in the warehouse . She sighed loudly . Whatever plans her father had, she welcomed it . In fact, she even felt excited when she knew that she was in the headquarters of the special forces . The torturous training in the learning s.p.a.ce nurtured Ling Lan's desire for challenges . If the special forces wanted to take revenge, she didn't mind fighting them again .

Ling Lan made her decision and entered the virtual world…

“Hey, I have never seen this brat before . Who is he?” Ling Lan immediately heard someone exclaiming beside her . She had no lag time when she entered the virtual world so she could sense everything the moment she entered .

A few people were gathered around her . Ling Lan pretended to be stiff for a moment so that they wouldn't realize her secret .

“I have never seen him before too . However, today is the last day of the recruit training camp . Did the commander went to the recruit camp to find new blood?” from the age and the looks of this young man, he must be a recruit . The people thought that he was an official member of the special forces because only official members could enter the headquarters of the special forces . Subst.i.tutes didn't have the right to come here .

In order to protect the members of the special forces and prevent the location of the special forces headquarters from being exposed, every single member of the special forces underwent a thorough background check before entering the team .

They had to be strict with the recruitment of the special forces because they were the ultimate weapon of the division . If the special forces got destroyed, the entire division would drop in strength and become a third-rank division . The division would not be able to regain its strength in a short period of time .

“That is possible . Maybe the commander felt frustrated after the three months in the Blades Training Camp and wanted to vent his emotions on someone,” a 30 years old soldier placed his hand on his chin and said .

“Yao Lang, don't remind me of the Blades…” Everyone was frightened . They remembered the three months of torture that they went through . Wasn't it supposed to be a vacation? Weren't they supposed to relax and enjoy themselves during those three months? If their commander didn't go through the training with them, they might have rebelled during the training . Of course, even if they did rebel, they would fail . The instructors there were crazy . They were all beasts!

Yao Lang recalled the scary times in the camp and changed the topic immediately . “I am just kidding . Even if the commander took a fancy on him, he needs to undergo three to six months of background check . Hence, it is impossible for him to be recognized by the commander today . ”

This meant that the recruit must be chosen by the commander at least three months in advance . That was the time when the recruits from the military academies came in . If it was six months ago… he could only be a normal recruit .

They dismissed the option that he was a normal recruit . No matter how talented a normal recruit was, he would be unable to catch up with a recruit from the military academies in such a short time . Their starting points were totally different .

Although their commander liked normal recruits, he would not let a normal recruit enter the special forces before the recruit showed his true potential . He would be harming the normal recruit if he did that .

Normal recruits were not as talented as the recruits from the military academies . They could only rely on fights on the battlefield to gain experience and improve themselves . If not, they would never be able to surpa.s.s those soldiers from the military academies .

“Did the commander set his eyes on this recruit the moment he came here? Is there a prodigy among the recruits this year? Why is the commander so willing to accept him? He never liked recruits from the military academies,” someone asked in a puzzled tone .

“The one who defeated Lian Shaojing can be considered a prodigy,” someone replied sarcastically .

“The recruit was also heavily injured . He even missed the three months of recruit training camp…” Another person answered .

“Lian Shaojing had to recuperate for at least a year . If you look at it this way, Lian Shaojing had a more serious injury . ” Someone expressed his opinion .

“The recruit might still have to stay in the hospital after three months . No one said that he would recover completely after three months . He might have to wait for the next batch of recruits to come in before being a.s.signed to a team . ”

According to the rules of the division, if a recruit missed the graduation ceremony, he would have to wait for another year to be a.s.signed to a team .

Someone suddenly asked, “Don't tell me that this is Ling Lan . ”

“That is impossible . ” A commotion arose among the people . Ling Lan embarra.s.sed the special forces . The commander would never take a fancy on such a person… unless Ling Lan was really a prodigy…

But that was impossible too . Their commander was someone who was not satisfied with ace operators as well as people who fully mastered their physical skills . He would only make such exceptions if he found someone in the domain realm or an imperial operator . Could a recruit reach these two statuses?

Not everyone was Ling Xiao .

The people around Ling Lan noticed that his eyes were regaining conscious . They knew that his lag time was ending . One of them exchanged glances with Yao Lang and Yao Lang took a step towards Ling Lan . He stood right in front of Ling Lan .

Ling Lan looked at the person that appeared in front of her . He was lean as compared to the others . He smiled at her but Ling Lan felt the coldness in his smile .

Ling Lan didn't feel any oppressive aura from this person . His physical skills must be lower than the domain realm . She didn't know his mecha operator status but from the conversations just now, she predicted that this person must be the adviser of the group .
