2871 Hard To Deal With

Fighting underwater was more dangerous than fighting on land, especially without oxygen. The danger when fighting in water increased exponentially. No one could guarantee that they would come out alive.

Eka a.s.sault was famous for being a death compet.i.tion without death. Hence, besides the low probability of death, it was actual combat where the partic.i.p.ating special forces soldiers could feel the risk of dying.

The special forces soldiers who could partic.i.p.ate in the Eka a.s.sault compet.i.tion were all soldiers who had blood on their hands and had killed before. Once the battle started, even if it was a compet.i.tion without death, their ferocity and ruthlessness would not change. They would fight to kill the other party.

There were special forces soldiers from 12 countries in the lake, and there were eight partic.i.p.ants on each team. There were a total of 240 Estonian soldiers underwater. Just the difference in numbers was enough to make people tremble in fear.

However, there were only 20 Estonian soldiers who partic.i.p.ated in the combat. If all 200 of them surrounded the lake, the entire lake would be too crowded. They wouldn’t be able to move their hands and feet.

The Estonian soldiers who weren’t involved in combat had underwater cameras and were also responsible for underwater rescue. They also had the ability to act in time in the face of an a.s.sault.

Underwater was not like land. If anything happened underwater, it would be difficult to rescue them. In addition, there were hidden currents in the lake. If someone was brought away by the hidden currents and they did not act in time, there would be casualties from the start of the compet.i.tion.

The 20 Estonian soldiers who were fighting underwater were like ferocious monsters in the water. They bit the special forces soldiers of every country who were partic.i.p.ating and stabbed the inflatable rubber dinghies with the sharp combat daggers in their hands.

As soon as Ye Jian dragged an Estonian soldier away, another Estonian soldier bypa.s.sed the defense position and moved his hands. He approached the rubber dinghy at the speed of a swordfish.

Ye Jian saw the dagger in his hand and didn’t think too much about it. She knew that she had to stop the dagger in that person’s hand and not let him pierce their rubber dinghy.

Big Eel appeared from the side and entangled the Estonian soldier who was about to pierce the rubber dinghy with his dagger. Then, he quickly reminded Ye Jian to pay attention below.

As it turned out, the Estonian soldier who was dragged into the water by Ye Jian had rushed up from the water after a short adjustment.

Upon receiving her comrade’s reminder, Ye Jian didn’t turn her head immediately. Instead, she felt water rus.h.i.+ng up under her feet. Suddenly, she swung her hands sideways. She, who was originally swimming upward, turned her head and dived down again.

She dived toward the Estonian soldier who was trying to grab her ankle.

The change in direction was too sudden. The other party was caught off guard. The Estonian soldier who was rus.h.i.+ng up grabbed nothing. As Ye Jian was rus.h.i.+ng down, he hurriedly reduced his momentum… However, he was still a step too late.

He rushed up forcefully while Ye Jian rushed down forcefully. One was unprepared while the other was already prepared. Just as their heads were very close, Ye Jian held the underwater combat dagger in her hand horizontally and slashed it across. Her speed was so fast that it seemed to cut the water in half.

Gulp… Gulp… Gulp…

Swoosh… Swoosh… Swoosh…

The sounds from the underwater fight kept coming. Wave after wave hit the sh.o.r.e of the entire lake. In the middle, one could even see the formation of a vortex. It was a vortex created by the intense battle.
