'''Linglin''' was an [[Unggoy]] soldier of the [[Covenant]]. He was not particularly intelligent, and followed the Grunt saying, "When in doubt, shoot." In the [[Age of Reclamation|9th Age of Reclamation]], he was stationed on [[Installation 04]] as an infantry unit of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]].

==Biography==
During [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] and [[Yayap]]'s first attempt to kill the [[John-117|Master Chief]], he was under the command of [[Yayap]]. As 'Zamamee sent two [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]] to surprise the [[Chief]] near the security center of [[The Silent Cartographer]], Linglin ran in and fired an overcharged bolt from his [[Plasma Pistol]] in the general direction of the Chief. It was a stupid thing to do, since there was no clear shot. The bolt struck one of the Hunters in the back, killing it, which then made the Hunter fall over and crash into his bond brother, leaving one injured [[Hunter]] for [[Master Chief]] to deal with.

The bolt struck one of the Mgalekgolo in the back, killing it, which then made the Hunter fall over and crash into his bond brother, leaving only one injured Mgalekgolo for the Master Chief to deal with as opposed to a fearsome pair.<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''page 145''</ref>

===Death===
Because of his incredibly dumb action, the Chief was able to overcome the lone Hunter. Linglin was shot and decapitated by the Chief as he tried to run away, terrified at the outcome of his actions. 'Zamamee and Yayap, however, survived the catastrophic event.<ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', page 146</ref>
Because of his mistake, the Chief was able to overcome the lone Mgalekgolo. Linglin was shot and killed by the Chief as he tried to run away, terrified at the outcome of his foolish actions. Yayap, standing nearby, felt blood spray his face and then 'Zamamee yanked him into a cargo pod where they hid and survived the catastrophic event.<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''page 146''</ref>


==Trivia==
== Trivia ==
The name is perhaps a reference to "[[7 Steps to World Domination|Ling-Ling]]", a dog whose head is needed by [[Bungie]] in their quest to rule the world - an ongoing joke of theirs. Linglin's decapitation is also possibly a Ling-Ling reference.
*The name is perhaps a reference to "[[7 Steps to World Domination|Ling-Ling]]", a dog whose head is needed by [[Bungie]] in their quest to rule the world - an ongoing joke of theirs. There's an interesting sign in [[Zanzibar]] showing a dog's head saying "Are you finding Ling-Ling's head?" <ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', level ''[[Zanzibar (Level)|Zanzibar]]''</ref>
*Linglin is the only Grunt mentioned to kill a Hunter by accident.
*Linglin's decapitation could be a [[7 Steps to World Domination|Ling-Ling]] reference.
