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

During Zuka 'Zamamee and Yayap's first attempt to kill the Master Chief, he was under the command of Yayap. As 'Zamamee sent two 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 no Hunters for Master Chief to deal with. [1]

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.[2]
