Li Xin drank a lot of drinks that night.

The drinks weren't intoxicating, but the atmosphere was truly different.

The next day, Li Xin packed his things and set off for his new residence in the early morning.

Before this, he had lived near the mecha, in the hangar.

Now as Lu Quan's aide-de-camp, his new residence is near Lu Quan.

At present, the entire Dan'an area is under military control. Lu Quan not only has to deal with the work of the dispatched troops, but also needs to deal with the people's livelihood and government affairs of Dan'an.

When Li Xin came to report, Lu Quan was very busy.

In the huge office, there were at least a dozen staff officers handling various tasks, and from time to time there were tasks that needed to be given to Lu Quan for signature and authorization.

Lu Quan had already seen Li Xin when he came, but he had no time to pay attention to Li Xin.

Seeing the busy situation, Li Xin did not want to get bored, but began to walk around the office slowly.

This office is currently located in the government building of the former Dan'an area.

A twenty-story building.

The environment in Guansuo 4 is harsh, with sandstorms and electromagnetic storms occurring from time to time, so the buildings here are generally not tall.

The ones that can be built high are generally official buildings of various forces.

At this time, a company of blueprint dispatch troops is stationed in this building.

There are two small military camps around, each with a company of soldiers waiting there.

Li Xin first checked the room and took the opportunity to see how he would work as an adjutant and captain of the guard.

Lu Quan was busy for a while before he lit a cigarette and walked to Li Xin, puffing out smoke.

"How was it? What do you think after looking around?"

Li Xin said honestly: "I used to just go straight in and chop people down. Now you want me to protect you, I really have no idea how to do it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Quan burst into laughter.

He laughed and said, "You are quite honest when you speak!"

"Don't worry about it. For now, there's basically no danger in the city. At my level, there won't be many people who want to assassinate me."

"Although I am currently the top leader of the Dan'an region, I will have to hand over this position soon, so I won't be hated too much."

"As an adjutant, your real role will come when we go to war next time."

"You just do your job well. Practice your psychic powers when you need them, and practice your mecha when you need them."

"I'll let you know when I need to go out."

Hearing Lu Quan say this, Li Xin nodded and said, "Yes, Boss!"

Lu Quan then said to Li Xin, "You have been promoted to M2 and are now a C-class psychic. I have requested a new mecha for you this time. Your Vanguard is already waiting in a nearby hangar."

"I'll have someone take you there when I have time."

Speaking of this, Li Xin felt his interest suddenly piqued.

Since joining the military, he has been driving a Dagger Squire, and now he can finally change to a more powerful one.

It’s not that the D-class Dagger Servant is bad, but the C-class Vanguard Mecha can better demonstrate Li Xin’s strength.

Li Xin said excitedly: "Yes, I will go and feel it later."

After Lu Quan thought about it, he said to Li Xin:

"After saying so much, I still forgot one thing."

"You are my adjutant after all, you should always go and check on your soldiers!"

"Since there's nothing else to do now, I'll arrange for someone to take you to officially take up your duties."

"Yes! Boss!" Li Xin saluted Lu Quan.

Lu Quan turned around and looked at his slightly busy office. After looking around, he found a staff officer who didn't seem that busy.

Lu Quan waved his hand and called out, "Um...Xiao Gao! Gao Liang, come here!"

Gao Liang, a staff officer who was sorting out documents, suddenly heard Lu Quan's call and quickly responded loudly. Then he trotted over to Lu Quan.

Gao Liang stopped and saluted before asking, "Boss, did you call me?"

Lu Quan nodded. "That's right. Put aside your current work for now. I have something for you to take care of."

Lu Quan pointed at Li Xin and said, "This is the new M2 Li Xin. You should have met him. From today on, he will also be my aide-de-camp."

"You will hand over the guard duties to him later."

"Yes! Supervisor!" Gao Liang responded.

Gao Liang then looked at Li Xin, who stood tall and straight beside him, and said with a smile, "Adjutant Li, we've met before. When you first arrived at the Expeditionary Force, I was the one who went to pick you up."

Li Xin also smiled and said, "Advisor Gao, I didn't expect you still remembered me."

Lu Quan waved his hand and said, "Alright, if you two are going to exchange pleasantries, go outside and chat slowly. Now get back to work!"

"Yes! Boss!" Both of them quickly saluted Lu Quan.

Afterwards, Lu Quan continued to busy himself with his work.

Gao Liang took Li Xin out of the busy office.

After leaving the office, they didn't rush to leave. Instead, in the corridor, Gao Liang smiled and said, "Adjutant Li, it's really fate."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Colonel Gao, you can just call me Xiao Li, or just call me by my name."

Gao Liang nodded and said, "Okay, we'll be eating from the same pot from now on, so there's no need for us to be so estranged."

"From now on I'll call you Lao Li, and you can just call me Lao Gao!"

Li Xin also smiled and said, "No problem, it sounds more natural this way."

Gao Liang sighed, "It's hard to believe. I just hired you a few months ago, a new recruit like you, and I didn't expect you to be promoted to M2 in just a few months. It's really fast!"

Li Xin said modestly, "I was able to get promoted thanks to everyone's care and my good luck."

Gao Liang shook his head slightly and said, "You're being too modest. You can't be too modest. Military merit earned on the battlefield isn't simply about luck; it requires real strength!"

"I know all about your recent visits to the stage to receive honors. It wasn't easy to get any of those medals!"

In response to this, Li Xin smiled. How could he not know it?

Gao Liang was both envious and admired Li Xin.

A freshly graduated recruit who was assigned to take over a job could climb from an intern to the position of M2 in just a few months.

This is because during wartime, he was brave enough to fight and had made many military achievements, which led to such a speed of promotion.

On normal days, it would take more than this much time to become a full-time employee from an intern.

After all, at Blueprint, if an intern wants to become a full-time employee, they have to wait for half a year for an internship. This internship period may be extended for a few months depending on the results of their work and the opinions of their leaders. This is normal.
