The cliff face was completely empty, and the three of them were scared off.
Lin Qi put down Xiao Jing. After studying her route, he said seriously, "If you want to continue forward, you can only climb up."
Qin Yishan frowned slightly. "It"s not difficult for the two of us to climb up, but Second Lieutenant Xiao is seriously injured. I"m afraid there"s a lot of danger if we want to climb up."
"I don"t care."
Xiao Jing drank a large mouthful of water. After replenis.h.i.+ng some of the water, she stood in front of the cliff, clenched her teeth, and climbed up.
Lin Qi walked behind him, convinced that as long as he accidentally fell down, he could still serve as his human flesh cus.h.i.+on.
Xiao Jing gasped for breath as she strenuously gripped the stone wall with her right hand. Several times, she almost fell off the cliff. Her blood once again dyed the gauze, and a drop of bright red blood fell onto the stone.
The night closed in, and the surroundings were desolate.
"Hmm …"
Not far away, the sound of a wolf"s bark echoed through the forest for a long time.
In the tent at the end, Mu Xi Chi sat in front of the screen with a serious expression, staring fixedly at the image of the satellite. It was a pity that the Lin Qi he saw was already at the bottom of the screen.
"The captain just personally led the two out."
One of them opened the door of the tent, talking as he came in, his voice full of schadenfreude.
Mu Xi lit up a cigarette and flicked her feet, "Cheng Chen, why do I feel that captain is a little strange this time?"
The man who was called Cheng Chen put down the cup and felt somewhat puzzled as well. He said, "If you don"t tell me, I don"t think so. When did you start training the recruits and you still need our captain to personally take action?"
"Although we"ve selected two Lieutenants this time, there"s no need for the captain to lower himself to serve them personally."
"Why don"t I think it"s because of Lin Qi and the others?"
Mu Xi Chi crossed her hands under her chin and narrowed her eyes. The expression in her eyes became increasingly obscure.
"I heard that the higher ups specially sent a 525 team member over. Could it be that the captain is worried about those offspring of the Wealthy Cla.s.s?"
"Our captain is from a wealthy family, there"s no need to fawn over anyone!"
"I really can"t figure this out. I just feel weird, but luckily, this time, Xiao Jing will definitely be eliminated."
The corner of Mu Xi Chi"s mouth rose.
"You don"t like that Xiao Jing?"
Cheng Chen asked.
"It"s not that I don"t like him. It"s just that with him here, my position in the team captain"s eyes will drop by a few degrees."
"When did the captain get a place for you?"
Mu Xi Chi glared at him. Why was there no seat left?
The captain felt sorry for him.
In the forest, the moonlight flickered and dimmed. A few figures flashed past like ghosts without the slightest intention of stopping.
"Bring out your true abilities and teach these arrogant new teammates a lesson."
Shen Chengfeng stood on a large tree with his gun in hand. He looked down at the two men hiding underground and waved his hand.
The two Special Forces members behind him leaped down, almost directly facing each other, their bullets like raindrops shooting through the air.
Before they could react, the two men were exposed, surrounded by bullet holes. They were confident that the bullets would hit their bodies and cause blood to splash everywhere.
As expected of a special squad, their casual training was as good as the real deal.
"Surrender or death."
One of them, Jiang Xin, aimed at the other and issued the order.
Both of them looked at each other, thinking that it was very likely that this would be part of the training. If they chose to surrender, they might be disqualified on the spot.
The two of them did not reply to each other. Instead, they picked up their guns to stubbornly fight back.
"It seems that you have chosen to perish in battle."
With a flash, Jiang Xin chose to fight in close combat.
Jiang Temple was aware of the movement behind him. He turned his head, and a flash of blade light flashed across his eyes. Instinctively, he dodged backwards. The sharp blade edge slid past his cheek, leaving a thin line of blood.
The two were stunned. They were actually serious!
"Today, I will tell you all. In the face of life and death, integrity is very important, but recognizing reality is more important. In the face of absolute strength, self-preservation is most important."
Jiang Xin"s fist landed on Qi Pei"s right shoulder.
Just as he regained his senses, the gun in his hand had already disappeared. He suddenly raised his head, and there was a gun pressed against his forehead.
Jiang Xin replied, "You"re dead."
By this time, he was already dead.
Jiang Temple was punched consecutively by the other side. He fell on the ground with his eyes and nose swollen. He also had his pistol pressed against the center of his brows.
The two men were killed at the same time, ending the armed training ahead of schedule.
"Jiang Xin, come with me."
On the treetops, Shen Chengfeng, who had yet to appear, issued the next command.
Jiang Xin readied his weapon and asked, "Captain, who should we take care of now?"
Shen Chengfeng stopped in his tracks and his gaze fell on the three figures who had just climbed up the stairs. His expression was cold and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.
Jiang Xin was ready to make a move. "It seems like these three are still part of the veterans" team," he said.
"You go deal with the other two from the southwest, leave these three to me."
Jiang Xin was stunned. All three of them had been injured at the same level. How could such a weak team team leader personally make a move?
He could cripple them with a finger.
Shen Chengfeng cast a sidelong glance at Jiang Xin, who was glaring at the trio, and said expressionlessly, "I don"t like repeating what I said a second time."
Jiang Xin s.h.i.+vered as she ran to the other side without the slightest hesitation.
Lin Qi sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly said, "There"s an ambus.h.!.+"
Qin Yishan was on alert, carefully observing his surroundings. Apart from the night wind, he did not catch anything suspicious.
Xiao Jing was lying on her back. She felt like she was about to die, really about to die. Her arms were burning with pain, and her head was dizzy. She wanted to have a good night"s sleep.
"Take Second Lieutenant Xiao and leave. I will take care of the back."
Lin Qi hid behind some obstacles and stared ahead without blinking.
"I want to be a hero too."
Xiao Jing leaned against the rock, a bitter smile on her face.
