Chapter 26: Is the Alliance's Hero Adrian Really Engaged?
Yun Fuyu frowned: "Adrian has a fiancée. Don't you know?"
Xie Huaiyan said it himself, and Adrian did not deny it, so the credibility is close to 100%.
Shi Ling's eyes quickly turned red: "Impossible, you must be lying to me..."
Shi Ling's friends rushed to comfort him:
"Xiao Ling, don't listen to his nonsense. He must have confessed his feelings to the Chief and been rejected, so he started making up stories to sow discord between you and the Chief."
Shi Ling's eyes turned even redder: "...Is that so?"
Friend: "Yeah, otherwise why didn't Yun Fuyu dare to show up these past few days? It's normal for the Chief to be angry when being pestered by someone like that."
Yun Fuyu was so angry that he almost laughed.
He missed classes a few times simply because he was not feeling well.
If it weren't for the lack of options, Yun Fuyu really wanted to roll up her sleeves and show him the marks on her arms that Adrian had bitten like a dog.
"Heroes of the League"?
He has a fiancée, is keeping Shi Ling hooked, and yet he does something like this.
Standard scumbag.
Yun Fuyu gave up the idea of helping others and walked away while the two of them were comforting each other.
"There's no need for me to lie to you. Instead of pestering me, why not just ask him directly?"
*
Shi Ling obviously didn't dare to ask Adrian directly.
After a few days, Shi Ling still couldn't see Adrian, so he couldn't bear it anymore.
He decided to go and take a look around the battle site.
Maybe I can meet Zheng Lianchuan and find out some information.
Among the group of people around the chief, only Zheng Lianchuan is more gentle and considerate to women and is not so harsh to Shi Ling.
In the center of the battlefield.
If you look down from a high place, it looks like a large geometric figure composed of interconnected hexagons.
Each hexagon is a battlefield.
Countless of them, brightly lit day and night.
Ten meters high on the outer wall of each battle field, there are winding viewing corridors connecting to each other.
High-strength building materials ensure that offensive psychics can fully unleash their power without worrying about disturbing each other.
Adrian stood alone in the middle of the field, his posture erect.
He was wearing a black training vest, his chest rising and falling slightly.
Sweat gathered along the cold white muscle lines and flowed down along the strong and powerful grooves.
Someone on the second floor threw him a bottle of water from a distance.
Adrien caught it accurately without even turning his head.
He wiped the sweat off his face with a towel in one hand and unscrewed the bottle cap with the other hand and drank it all in one gulp.
Then throw the bottle back upstairs and continue the next round of training.
In the battle field of the First Military Academy, you can train alone or fight with multiple people.
Adrian fought for several days with the other willing challengers among the ten crowns.
Not very enjoyable.
Although the other top ten champions were also very strong, Adrian's strength far surpassed the others, and he usually lost interest in the fight after a while.
Fortunately, the battle field also has a single-player mode.
The single-player mode was developed by the R&D department of the First Military Academy. It simulates different waves of mutant attacks through the mental force field simulation equipment installed in the venue.
The instrument started up and a buzzing sound began, the frequency becoming higher and higher, eventually turning into sound waves inaudible to the human ear.
A new round of attacks begins.
Adrien closed his eyes.
Within a few breaths, the heart rate dropped rapidly and became stable.
In the darkness, only the faint sounds of breathing, heartbeats, and the sound of blood gently hitting the eardrums remained.
Instruments were buried all around the battle field.
Walls, ceilings, feet, every corner.
But the attack does not necessarily come from any particular direction.
"boom!!!"
In just a moment, the siege of the instruments and Adrian's swift figure reacted almost simultaneously, with a time difference so tiny that even the machine could hardly measure it.
Adrian's mental reaction speed is faster than the speed of sound.
The mental forces collided, and a huge explosion sounded in the field.
The attack was invisible, but the loud noise and the rapidly cracking floor told the onlookers that—
If it weren't for the protection of the shield, if Adrian hadn't been able to control it, the terrifying impact like a ferocious wave would have blown away the people and walls around him.
Zheng Lianchuan was no longer surprised.
He stood at the corridor, watching Adrian training on the field calmly.
The people in the R&D department of the First Military Academy actually serve Adrian specifically.
Because only Adrian will continue to break the boundaries and limits of existing simulators.
Either break the record or break the equipment.
Either way, it will force the R&D department to work overtime to improve the attack strength.
It was at this time that Shi Ling sneaked over.
He didn't dare get too close to the venue, so he stood in the winding second-floor viewing corridor between the hexagonal battle fields.
Shi Ling hid nearby and looked around.
Zheng Lianchuan was on the other side of the battlefield. If you wanted to get closer, you had to walk along the inner side of the battlefield.
but......
Master Adrian's mental attacks were terrifying, each wave more ferocious than the last.
Even with the protective shield blocking it, one could feel the ground at the edge of the battle field shaking.
Shi Ling was just a fragile affinity-type psychic and didn't dare to go over.
He bit his lower lip, made up his mind, and walked towards Cui Jue who was nearby.
"Master Cui Jue, Master Adrian...are you really engaged?"
Cui Jue clicked his tongue impatiently, startling Shi Ling.
Cui Jue himself is that kind of... a typical offensive psychic.
He is tall, muscular and looks very fierce.
What's more, he has a well-defined bone structure, a crew cut, and eyebrow piercings, which makes him look even more ferocious.
Cui Jue has always been too lazy to deal with these delicate tutors.
You can't hit them, you can't scold them, if you speak too harshly or get a little impatient, they will...
...Yes, just like Shi Ling in front of me.
Her eyes instantly turned red, and she looked like she was about to cry in the next second.
It seemed as if Cui Jue had made things difficult for him.
The expression on Cui Jue's face was always ferocious, as if he wanted to eat someone.
No matter who comes, he will be like this. He won't change. He is just like this.
Shi Ling became more and more stiff as he was stared at.
"If you can't say it, then forget it..."
Cui Jue was not good at dealing with this kind of question, so he responded with a sour face:
"I don't know. Ask the chief yourself."
He finished speaking quickly, leaving Shi Ling there, and turned away.
Cui Jue certainly knew that Adrian was engaged to the one from the Chao family.
But since the chief himself hasn't announced it yet, Cui Jue certainly can't talk about it in private.
Just asking, what do you want to know?
If the chief doesn’t tell you, doesn’t that already reflect his attitude?
If he really said it, Cui Jue would be the one in trouble.
I hate those people who keep testing me.
Cui Jue walked impatiently to the inside of the corridor and stood next to Zheng Lianchuan.
Zheng Lianchuan was watching Adrian's battle intently.
"boom!!!!"
The dull sound of collision came from the field again.
Cui Jue couldn't help but ask, "Why did you choose Shi Ling as the Chief? It's good enough that he doesn't hold us back on the battlefield. Maybe we'll even have to take care of him."
Then Cui Jue saw Adrian's battle record and was shocked:
"As expected of the chief, doesn't he get tired? The R&D department needs to replace their equipment again."
Even though I've seen it a lot, I still can't help but marvel at it.
Zheng Lianchuan had his usual unfathomable smile on his face.
"The Chief naturally has his own arrangements."
Cui Jue clicked his tongue again.
"She's not as good as Yun Fuyu. At least she doesn't cry easily."
After saying this, Cui Jue immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn.
Because inside the venue, Adrian, who was fighting, turned around and glanced at Cui Jue coldly.
Cui Jue immediately made a gesture to shut up, pinched a non-existent air zipper, and closed his mouth.
Then he asked Zheng Lianchuan honestly, "Do you think I should run away now, or wait for the boss to come out and admit his mistake before running away?"
Zheng Lianchuan's lenses reflected the cold light on the wall, making him look even more sinister.
"It doesn't matter. The Chief can beat you up in no time. And you can't outrun the Chief either."
He always enjoys seeing his colleagues get humiliated.
Cui Jue held his head and wailed, trying to turn back time to a few minutes ago.
*
Adrian wasn't so bored as to embarrass Cui Jue over such a thing.
This round of fighting ended, and smoke and dust filled the venue.
The fierce mental power scratched deep marks on the metal wall, and the instruments buried deep underground were turned out by Adrian's mental power. At this moment, the circuits were tilted and exposed outside.
It’s far from enough.
Even though this is the strongest mode designed by the R&D department, it is not enough.
Compared to what he had done on the battlefield when he was sixteen, these attacks were far too weak.
Adrian closed his eyes and recalled the polluted battlefield on the edge of the Leonis star.
Black, gray dust covering the sky.
There is no human habitation for thousands of miles.
There was only the roar of the mutants and contaminated Zerg, and the metallic sound of their mouthparts colliding as they gnawed at the corpses of the fallen warriors.
This nightmarish scene has occupied the deepest part of Adrian's mind since he was sixteen.
Like a heavy, dark oil stain, it is a cancer that is stuck to the bone.
Adrian wasn't afraid of these things.
It was he who personally wiped out all these mutants and Zerg, leaving not a single one alive, and recaptured the long-lost territory of mankind.
But their shadows linger.
Adrian occasionally wakes up from nightmares.
However, ever since Yun Fuyu helped him with his mental counseling that night, the nagging nightmares suddenly disappeared.
The sticky and uncomfortable black pollution was washed away completely.
All that remains in the spiritual realm and dreams is the sunshine, the quiet breeze, and the rustling sound of leaves in the wind.
Adrien seemed to be leaning against a tree trunk, his body warmed by the sun, taking a lazy nap.
There was no war that suddenly broke out and required him to wake up to deal with it.
Only the breeze brushed across the tip of my nose, causing a slight itch.
A sense of familiarity that comes from nowhere.

You mean it, Adrian?
