However, he dared not tell Gu Zhilin about this purpose.
She was afraid that Gu Zhilin would refuse to cooperate with her if he found out.
Fortunately, Gu Zhilin accepted his suggestion, so the two teamed up, and Lu Jin'an also pulled Jiang Jiyang to continue working as a restorer.
"Is Jiang Jiyang in the army now? Can you play games in the army?" Gu Zhilin asked curiously when he saw Jiang Jiyang.
“Although the military does not encourage soldiers to play games, playing flight games occasionally is fine, as long as it doesn’t interfere with normal training,” Lu Jin’an said. “In fact, military rookies also use this game to train their piloting skills when their mental strength is not yet matched with that of warships.”
Gu Zhilin nodded: "So who is our opponent this time?"
Lu Jin'an smiled and said, "We're ready. Our opponents this time are a real warship fleet, unlike any of the players we've encountered before."
"They're all from the Earth Alliance?" Gu Zhilin asked in surprise.
"What? Scared?"
"How is that possible?" Gu Zhilin was excited. He never expected that he would not only be able to be teammates with the generals of the Earth Alliance Army, but also compete against the Alliance Army team.
The competition officially began, and Gu Zhilin entered the specially designated room as instructed by Lu Jin'an.
Upon entering, they discovered that there was already another aircraft inside. Although there was only one, Gu Zhilin knew that the opponent's strength was definitely not to be underestimated.
At that moment, Jiang Jiyang's voice rang out from within the team: "Gu Zhilin, our opponent today is the second-ranked team in the Alliance Army. You'd better be careful!"
"Ranked second?" Gu Zhilin was surprised. "Then who's ranked first?"
"The team ranked first, of course, is the one with a helmsman and a land general!" Jiang Jiyang said matter-of-factly.
He was already used to this behavior of subtly trying to win over Gu Zhilin anytime, anywhere.
Lu Jin'an did not refute Jiang Jiyang's statement. Instead, she cheerfully reminded Gu Zhilin, "The opponent is very strong. You need to be careful."
Gu Zhilin then focused his attention, concentrating his mental energy on the universe, and began to unfold his Bagua formation.
At first, he was able to quickly determine the location of the other party, but he soon realized that he was still far from being a professional soldier.
They fly at speeds far exceeding those of ordinary aircraft pilots, even if they have determined the opponent's location and occupied a position that is incompatible with the opponent's.
But the other party could always fly to another location at a speed he couldn't even imagine the next second.
Even someone as agile as Gu Zhilin couldn't keep up with his opponent's speed, so his previous tactics were completely useless.
Moreover, the enemy's helmsman and fire control operator worked together very well, and the laser projectiles always hit his aircraft at angles he could not imagine.
Although he gradually adapted to the fast pace, he was still knocked offline by the opponent after only twenty minutes.
Gu Zhilin was somewhat dazed as he looked at the notification that he had logged off. He hadn't expected to be so vulnerable in front of professionals.
He turned to look at Lu Jin'an and suddenly felt a little nervous. Would the other party think he was too useless? Would he regret choosing him as his partner?
However, Lu Jin'an did not see him at this moment, as he seemed to be on a call.
After a while, he hung up the call and looked at Gu Zhilin.
Gu Zhilin swallowed nervously and said, "Am I... too useless?"
"What are you thinking about?" Lu Jin reassured him. "That was a communication from the other side's helmsman. He said you're very capable, especially since he knows you've only been playing the flight simulator game for a few days. He thinks you're a genius."
These words did not make Gu Zhilin happy; instead, he said with concern, "He's not just trying to comfort me, is he?"
"How could that be? He's one of the few A-level helmsmen in the entire Alliance Army. He doesn't have time to comfort a newbie. The reason he made this special call is to tell you that you're really strong. After all, he's been playing this game for fifteen years and has been training in warships for ten years. Plus, they're long-term teammates with excellent teamwork. It's already impressive that we were able to last 20 minutes against them."
Gu Zhilin's mood improved a bit upon hearing this, but he still asked curiously, "What ranking do you get when you cut in line to join other teams during training?"
“Of course it’s…first place.” Lu Jin’an smiled.
It seems I still have a long way to go.
Seeing that Gu Zhilin was about to lose heart again, Lu Jin'an was about to say a few words of comfort.
But then he took a deep breath, looked up at me, and said, "Lu Jin'an, just wait a little longer. Soon, very soon I will be able to lead you to the real number one."
Upon hearing these words, Lu Jin'an felt somewhat dazed and unreal.
He looked at Gu Zhilin nervously: "What...what did you just say? Could you say it again?"
Gu Zhilin found the other party's reaction rather amusing, but he still continued, "I said, wait for me. When I become stronger and qualified to be your partner, I will sit next to you and let you win first place openly and fairly in the name of your own team."
After saying this, Li Jinan suddenly stepped forward and hugged Gu Zhilin tightly.
The sudden hug made Gu Zhilin a little uncomfortable, but thinking that the other person should still be in an excited state, he did not resist.
Then she heard a man's deep, tense voice beside her: "Then may I ask you not to keep me waiting too long?"
Gu Zhilin was taken aback. Was he in such a hurry?
"I've been waiting for you to appear for a very, very long time," the man continued.
He is recognized as a powerful figure by the entire Earth Alliance, but because he is too strong, he has no partner and has become a liability.
After so many years when he was almost ready to give up, he finally found Gu Zhilin, this gem.
Now that he has received a promise from the other party, how could he not be anxious?
Gu Zhilin smiled and said in a good mood, "Maybe I can give it a try after I win first place in this aircraft competition."
“You will definitely be number one,” Lu Jin’an said firmly.
Just then, the door to the game pod where the two were located opened.
Shen Guannan and Wen Yili came over and asked them to go out and meet the club staff.
What we saw was the two of them hugging.
"Holy crap, Lu Jin'an, you're that fast? Don't do anything unnecessary in my gaming pod."
Gu Zhilin quickly pushed Lu Jin'an away, his face already flushed red: "No, it's not what you think."
"What do I think?" Shen Guannan's smile was particularly radiant.
This left Gu Zhilin speechless.
"Alright, stop bullying him." Lu Jin'an said calmly, giving Shen Guannan a warning look.
After being warned, Shen Guannan quickly changed the subject: "The club's agent has arrived, we can go and meet him first."
Gu Zhilin nodded and stepped out of the game pod, where he met Wen Yili.
