Volume 1 Chapter 60: Eagle King

  A distance of eight hundred meters?

  The old man stared blankly, then quickly came to his senses and turned to Huang Yong'er beside him: "Yong'er, if it were you, could you achieve all this with a semi-automatic rifle like this one?"

  Huang Yonger's mouth was a bit bitter, and she shook her head helplessly, sighing: "Can't, if...if you install a scope for me, I can do it, but...I won't be able to!"

  The old man didn't say anything else, but his gaze at Lin Yu became much more fervent.

  Su Xingyu looked at Lin Yu foolishly, shaking her head. Su Xingyu tried to control her emotions: "Coincidence, this must be a coincidence!"

  Bang!

  Another shot, Su Xingyu's gaze was fixed on the direction of the target, disbelieving and not daring to believe that Lin Yu's marksmanship could be so accurate.

  "Decade!"

  The distant voice was like a fierce slap in the face, heavily hitting Su Xingyu's cheek, invisible and traceless, but scorchingly painful.

  "This kid is not ordinary!" The old man looked at Lin Yu and couldn't help but softly praise him.

  Huang Yong'er glanced at the old man, her eyes flickering slightly, but she didn't say a word. She was very clear that being able to be described as "not ordinary" by him was enough to see how much he valued Lin Yu.

  "Yong'er, do you know what kind of person he is?" The old man suddenly looked at Huang Yong'er and asked.

  "This, I don't know!" Huang Yong'er smiled slightly bitterly and then added: "I just investigated some of his information, more specific information, I haven't investigated yet!"

  "I don't know?" The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a serious expression, he said: "He is absolutely not an ordinary person. He is extremely familiar with firearms, and his sense of shooting, at a distance of 800 meters where the naked eye can only see a vague shadow, being able to hit the target from such a far distance relies on that kind of sense of shooting. To cultivate this sense of shooting, apart from innate talent, it also requires going through countless battlefields to hone it!"

  "This... Commander, I think I know him!" Just then, the middle-aged man with a somewhat strange expression spoke up: "I didn't recognize him just now!"

  "Oh?" The old man was slightly startled, looking at the middle-aged man with some curiosity. The middle-aged man's name was Zheng Qiang, who had served in a certain unit in Beijing and was now the commander of the Donghai Garrison Command.

  Zheng Qiang smiled wryly and slowly opened his mouth: "I know him, I saw him when I was in the capital, I remember he's from the Lin family!"

  "A person from the Lin family?" The old man was somewhat surprised: "Impossible! Such a person cannot be unknown in the Lin family!"

  Zheng Qiang shook his head and sighed, "He is Lin Yuanhang's illegitimate son. I remember it has been six years since I last saw him. The first time I saw him was when the Lin family used their connections to send him into the military, at that time he was only thirteen years old!"

  "Thirteen years old?" The old man was taken aback and stared at Zheng Qiang, saying: "What kind of joke is this?"

  "I'm not joking, he's only thirteen years old, but his physical quality is very strong in all aspects!" Zheng Qiang slowly spoke: "At that time, it was I who took over, according to the Lin family's requirements, I assigned him to the Cangying Special Warfare Team's reserve team!"

  Huang Yong'er was also slightly stunned, her beautiful eyes fell on Lin Yu again, and she muttered to herself: "This guy, has he been a soldier too?"

  "Operation Eagle Squad?" The old man tilted his head, thinking for a moment: "It seems... I remember that this special forces squad was disbanded six years ago?"

  "Yes!" Zheng Qiang said with a bitter smile: "To say it, the disbandment of the Cangying Special Warfare Squad is also closely related to him!"

  Here is the translation:

  As he spoke, Zheng Qiang fell into a trance-like state of reminiscence and let out a sigh: "His all-around quality was extremely excellent. Although he was only thirteen years old, his all-around quality was already on par with our special forces soldiers. He became an outstanding member in less than a year after joining the reserve team, not just outstanding, but truly number one, not just in hand-to-hand combat, but in all aspects, stealth, marksmanship, infiltration, all the projects that special forces need to train for, he was always the first!"

  The old man's pupils contracted slightly, the reserve members of the Cangying Special Warfare Squad, although they had not yet been selected to join the Cangying Special Warfare Squad, were also seasoned veterans who were well-versed in various combat skills. Lin Yu was able to achieve first place at the age of thirteen; this was no longer just a matter of genius.

  Zheng Qiang continued: "At the age of 14, he had become a member of the Cangying Special Warfare Team as he wished. Then, he began to participate in various tasks with the Cangying Special Warfare Team. About half a year later, the captain of the Cangying Special Warfare Team died on duty, and Lin Yu became the new captain under the recommendation of many team members!"

  "Fourteen-year-old captain of the special forces team!" Zheng Qiang exclaimed: "At that time, there was great resistance. What surprised people was that all members of the Cangying Special Forces team unanimously requested Lin Yu to become the captain. This was their sincere request. At that time, a superior leader parachuted in a new captain, but was met with unanimous opposition from the Cangying Special Forces team. In the end, the superior leader had no choice but to propose a competition between Lin Yu and the newly parachuted captain, with the winner becoming the new captain of the Cangying Special Forces team!"

  "Did Lin Yu win?" The old man asked tentatively.

  "Victory is mine, within ten moves, I will defeat this parachuted captain!" Zheng Qiang nodded and slowly said: "At that time, he had already reached the realm of Dark Energy Great Perfection!"

  Zheng Qiang paused slightly, then continued: "Later on, Lin Yuanhang made a concerted effort in secret and managed to become the captain after all. It has to be said that he is indeed a prodigy - at 14 years old, he became a member of the special forces team, and in the same year, he became the new captain, as well as a 14-year-old dark energy master!!"

  "What happened next?" The old man suddenly became interested and stared at Zheng Qiang with some impatience.

  "Next, there's nothing more to say. The Dark Hawk Special Forces team has a very low casualty rate in terms of mission completion and personnel injury. This Lin Yu, I remember, he had three First-Class Merits, eleven Second-Class Merits, and some Third-Class Merits, which I've forgotten. Then, he led the Dark Hawk team to second place in the national special forces competition!"

  "Second in the country?" The old man felt numb from shock: "How old was he at that time?"

  "Sixteen years old!" Zheng Qiang sighed again, and then slightly bitterly smiled: "His Eagle Special Forces team lost to Long Xiao's team. Commander, do you know the origin of Long Xiao's team? This is the strongest special forces team in the country, without exception. Even in the world, the combat power of Long Xiao's team is also among the best!"

  The old man nodded, and Zheng Qiang slowly opened his mouth: "But do you know what kind of impact Lin Yu had?"

  "What's going on?" The old man felt his curiosity was completely piqued and couldn't help but ask hastily.

  "Thirteen members of the Dragon Squad, except for the Dragon King who did not participate in the competition, eight were shot down, and the remaining four were seriously injured. This is something that no special forces team has ever done before. Even at the time, some people predicted that if he were a little older, if given three more years, or even less, just one year's time, he might not have been defeated by the Dragon Squad. He was too young, his growth was unknown. After the competition, he was hailed as the Eagle King!"

  "A bit of an impression? Is the Eagle King this little guy? What happened afterwards? I remember it was a fleeting moment, I didn't pay too much attention!" The old man continued to ask, he felt that something must have happened afterwards, otherwise, he wouldn't be unaware of Lin Yu.

  "What happened afterwards?" Zheng Qiang smiled wryly and reluctantly spoke: "Because of the outstanding performance of the Cangying Special Warfare Squad, they were given a task by the country. At that time, a confidential document was stolen from the country, and Lin Yu led the Cangying squad to retrieve the document. However, they unexpectedly encountered an ambush by a foreign mercenary group called the Hell Mercenary Corps. At that time, Lin Yu had just participated in the National Special Forces Competition and his injuries had not yet healed. As a result... the entire Cangying squad was annihilated, and only Lin Yu barely escaped with his life!"

  The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and Zheng Qiang smiled bitterly: "At that time, it was just the right time for the change of office, and Lin's family was at a critical moment. The rumors in Beijing said that Lin Yu had colluded with foreign enemies, and this guy who caused heavy casualties to the Dragon Team, how could he not be brought back? At that time, there were even many so-called evidences, so much so that the military also privately detained and interrogated Lin Yu!"

  Here is the translation:

  "Up to this point, Zheng Qiang sighed: "He was also a man of strong character, after leaving, he directly went abroad. For more than a year, no one knew where he had gone. I conducted an investigation and found that during this period, all members of the Hell Mercenary Corps were assassinated, the entire army was annihilated... and then... I lost contact with him too. Unexpectedly, six years have passed, and I still saw him!"
