Chapter 92: The Finals * Shocking Upset

  Sang Hong and their school won a total of eight indicators, with one class occupying half of them. Four were sent out, including Sang Hong and Zhao Yibo's group, as well as Laili from the western ethnic minority and Fang Mingyuan from the fifth grade of senior high school. The remaining two groups came from the Department of Electrical Engineering and the Reconnaissance Department.

  They spent several hours on a plane in the dark of night and were parachuted to an unfamiliar place in a daze.

  Shang Hong was still wondering if she was sleepwalking when she jumped off the plane. Was the final really starting tonight?

  Fortunately, she had experienced all kinds of abnormal training and adapted quickly.

  There is a bright bonfire below as a marker for landing.

  As soon as she landed, she felt the sweltering heat and couldn't help but think of her last experience in the tropical jungle. She wondered if it was that place again, and her heart couldn't decide whether to feel relieved or still have lingering fear.

  A few people hastily gathered their parachutes, shouting to each other, and according to Song Jingzhu's instructions, with Sang Hong as the core, they searched for their classmates one by one, and then rushed straight to the brightly lit tent area surrounded by a circle of lights.

  The officer standing on one side of the field, constantly lifting his wrist to look at his watch. At the same time, all the contestants were simultaneously airdropped here, and by the time, they should have arrived already.

  How come they haven't all arrived yet?

  Across from him stood twenty fully armed warriors, handpicked by the troops, who had been lined up and waiting for a while; on the other side were students who kept running over to participate in the final.

  Just as he was getting anxious, he finally saw a group of people running over and immediately went to meet them.

  Shang Hong, the leader, shouted an order, and the people behind her quickly formed a line. She clearly and loudly reported: "Eight contestants from B City XX Military School, reporting for duty."

  The officer returned a military salute, solemnly waving his hand: "You've worked hard, please line up over there and wait."

  "Yes!" Xiang Hong looked at the neat rows of soldiers standing in the distance and instinctively ran over to join them, planning to stand in line with those warriors.

  It wasn't until they got closer that it became clear, one row was obviously from their own university's team, while the other row with fewer people should be from another university. Everyone had crossed paths when competing for places before, so it was easy to spot familiar faces.

  Xiang Hong saw that the two teams were clearly divided, and she instinctively led her people to stand in a separate row.

  Those who were waiting in boredom looked at Sang Hong and the others as they approached, each with an exaggerated large red flower on their chest, and couldn't help but smile at each other: "Look at these students, thinking they're here to attend a party!"

  "Yes, such strong winds didn't even blow these flowers away."

  "Do you know why they arrived at the gathering place so late? After landing, they must have seen that their big red flower had fallen off and specially found it to put it back on before coming over."

  The provocative words floated over without any disguise, and Sang Hong didn't even frown, shouting the command for everyone to look up, then loudly shouted out the slogan: "Strive hard, surpass limits, challenge yourself, youth has no regrets, one two three four!"

  The thrilling roar echoed far and wide in the silent wilderness, those who heard it were shocked, and the people who had been waiting bored suddenly shut their mouths, the discordant voices quickly disappeared.

  Sitting in a nearby tent and watching the game through video, Commander Li Bin furrowed his brow.

  The technical soldier controlling the image asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

  "This B city military school actually had the upper hand this year, and eight people came, but how come the team leader is a girl?" Li Bin was somewhat puzzled.

  "It's great that there are girls. Our squad is definitely dominated by males, and if we recruit a few more females, our work efficiency will be much higher in the future."

  The technical soldier's eyes were very excited.

  "In the army, there's no such thing as male or female, only capability. " Li Bin looked at him with a disapproving expression.

  "You don't think much of women, do you!" The little technical soldier muttered under his breath.

  The officer in charge of receiving them took roll call outside and confirmed the number of people who had reported, then walked into the tent to report on the basic situation, finally smiling:

  "This year, B city's X military school is not bad, with three more people than the previous two years. It seems that this indicator has a competitive effect after all."

  And this year there are a lot of female participants, 40 contestants, women account for more than a quarter.

  Li Bin glanced at him: "Being able to stay is the real skill, don't get too excited yet."

  As soon as he finished speaking, the two smiling faces suddenly turned black. He was telling the truth, and it's not bad to be able to recruit two girls every year.

  "This base is big, so naturally the chances are higher!" The cadre stammered.

  Li Bin also ignored them and went out on his own, announcing the competition process and rules as usual.

  "There were eight old warriors who infiltrated the forest in front, wearing black thin veils on their heads, unarmed, and reached the command center on the other side within three days, counting as a meritorious deed."

  There are forty of you, averaging five people per person, each with a dagger, a military first aid kit, and some basic survival facilities in the jungle, and the rest will be self-reliant.

  Each person has a set of camouflage training uniforms, and after a while, everyone will go to change into them. The wireless transmitter carried in the collar can be pressed for help by lightly patting any part of the neck if someone is defeated or retreats halfway. It's valid for three times, and there will be a helicopter arriving within half an hour.

  A wrist-mounted compass that displays your current direction and the number of people who have left the jungle, helping you understand the enemy's situation in the jungle.

  There is a medical box in the first-aid kit, which contains three vials of antidote serum and a disposable syringe. After being attacked by highly toxic creatures, teammates can perform basic treatment to ensure a half-hour survival time.

  "That's all for the announcement. Anyone with questions can raise their hand and ask."

  Li Bin finished speaking and clasped his hands behind his back, sternly staring at the young man in front of him.

  "Report, what is considered a pass for this assessment?" A soldier from one of the troops quickly raised his hand to ask.

  "In three days, catching a prisoner means passing the assessment." Li Bin replied concisely.

  "What if more than a dozen people catch one prisoner together? Will everyone pass?" someone else curiously asked.

  Li Bin almost laughed, every year there are people with wild ideas, he tried hard to keep a straight face and said:

  "Hehe, it's best not to do this. If you gather a large group of people together, those eight people will inevitably meet each other. As long as they gather in groups of more than two people, you won't be able to catch them at all."

  "By the way, I'll add that those who are attacked and eliminated will also have their achievements recorded. However, each of them can only defeat a maximum of five people before they can complete their task and leave. So, although they are your prey, aren't you also their prey?"

  "Reporting to the superior, the competition materials have been delivered."

  "Everyone line up and get on the front material truck to receive military supplies." Li Bin no longer listened to their nonsense.

  After receiving the military supplies, she immediately began to sort and check them. Sang Hong saw the windproof camouflage training suit made of leather and couldn't help but touch the Big Dipper on her face, thinking: If I get bitten a few more times, I'm afraid this face won't be able to see people for the rest of my life.

  After checking the items, she saw that each person had a tube of insect repellent. She thought about the sweltering heat in the jungle and how the cream would be washed away by sweat within an hour after applying it to her face. How could such a small tube possibly last for three days?

  She hesitated for a moment before reporting: "Excuse me, sir, can I have two more tubes of this ointment?"

  Li Bin turned his head and looked at her, shaking his head decisively: "Can't."

  "Can we exchange for something here?" Shan Hong didn't give up.

  "You can exchange it for life-saving serum." Li Bin replied with a expressionless face.

  Xiang Hong hastily shook her head and closed her mouth. Being bitten by a mosquito was just ugly, but being bitten by a venomous snake could be fatal. It was better to keep this lifesaving treasure safe.

  "The game starts tonight and tomorrow morning at five o'clock. The eight people who will be competing against you will be directly airdropped here, good luck!"

  Li Bin finished speaking and turned around to leave with his men.

  The group of 40 people soon dispersed, and Li Bin roughly observed that they quickly divided into very small groups, probably according to the place where they came from. Generally, there were four people in each group, huddled together, apparently discussing countermeasures.

  Shang Hong and eight others from their school naturally gathered together, she smiled and said:

  "Since they won't arrive until tomorrow morning, let's get a good night's sleep first. This place is not bad, being in the middle of the big camp will be much safer."

  The people in their class, because they often accompanied her, understood that she generally did things very cautiously, naturally without any misunderstanding; the students of the other four classes were obviously a bit dissatisfied, whispered to each other for a few sentences, and the boys might be too embarrassed to speak up, so the girl acted as the representative to discuss with Sang Hong.

  "We think it's better to move forward and set up camp at the edge of the forest, so that as soon as dawn breaks tomorrow, we can rush into the thicket and wait for the rabbit with a better effect."

  Xiang Hong smiled and said: "What's the hurry? You'll have a chance to meet your opponent sooner or later. Are you afraid those people will run away?"

  Xiang Hong had seen the real special forces in action, those who wanted to fight would be like wolves entering a flock of sheep if they charged into such a team.

  "Of course I'm afraid they'll run away, look, all the other contestants have left, who's still as foolish as us to stay here?"

  "It's like this, your class is afraid of taking the lead, so we'll go take the lead."

  The remaining two boys from other classes said disdainfully.

  Xiang Hong didn't want to argue with them and patiently said, "With so many people taking the lead, our school isn't lacking in representation. What did the principal instruct us before we left?

  Let's unite as one, with a common goal and mutual assistance. As a team, we must unify under command.

  According to the allocation of indicators, our class should be able to get six people, why did you give out two indicators evenly?

  "Because your departments of Mechanics and Electronics, and Reconnaissance have excellent specialties, one excels at defense, the other at tracking. We've all rushed to the front lines, if they track us down, isn't that just asking for trouble?"

  "Yes, we have two groups, one is good at defense and the other is good at tracking. If we can fight out a result, it proves that our strength is enough. What right do you have to say that your class let us win?"

  "We two teams cooperate just fine, your foreign training department has not only learned advanced technology and languages from abroad, but also beast language, can take us through the jungle unimpeded?"

  That girl herself envied Sang Hong's popularity, and since she didn't compete against Sang Hong during the competition, she naturally felt resentful and thought that the foreign training system was just a burden to them.

  Xiang Hong got angry after hearing the girl's words, she suddenly dropped her backpack and said to Ming Yuan and Zhao Yi Bo: "You two go set up the tent, we'll stay here for the night."

  Instead, he said to those four people: "Let's go together and leave together. I don't want to bring school people out and lose soldiers within ten miles."

  "Which one of you four has the best skills? Come out and exchange a few moves with me. If you win, I'll say nothing and let you do as you please. But if you lose, all of you will shut up and rest quietly. In the dense forest, where can you still sleep soundly?"

  Xiang Hong finished speaking and struck a pose.

  Zhao Yibo walked over and smiled at her: "You go plan the camp, your experience is richer, if I let them go, I'll be fired directly."

  "In the middle of the scene, anywhere is fine, you're my partner, that's what matters, don't compete with me." San Hong didn't show any modesty.

  A tall and robust boy immediately rolled up his sleeves to come out and fight, but the girl raised her hand to hold him back.

  He stepped forward and asked Zhao Yibo: "You just said that her experience is richer, what did you mean?"

  Xiang Hong pursed her lips, nodded and walked forward, pointing at her own face and smiling at the girl:

  "Look at these wounds, they were all bitten by mosquitoes. Although I've never been here before, this humid and sultry feeling is almost the same as in tropical jungles. I once participated in a jungle adventure."

  "Have you attended? How come we didn't know, when was it held?" The girl was obviously scared by the red spots on Sang Hong's face, and she instinctively raised her hand to cover her face.

  "Just a hobby, okay, no nonsense, you come, let's exchange blows." Xiang Hong naturally wouldn't tell her the truth, and with one sentence she lightly dismissed her, speaking to the boy who had just stepped forward to duel her.

  Zhao Yibo turned back: "Didn't you say it was handed over to me?"

  "Heh heh, I've said it, don't snatch it away. Quick battle, quick decision, let's give everyone a chance to get some rest early."

  The man obviously heard the contempt in Sang Hong's words and, ignoring the woman's obstruction, walked towards Sang Hong to confront him.

  Li Bin, sitting in the tent and watching the situation outside, couldn't help but laugh: "This... this girl is too arrogant, she doesn't want to be with them, yet she wants to rely on fighting."

  "Haha, this is probably what the principal of their school told them to do. He finally snapped out of his usual state of being completely defeated, but unfortunately, he shouldn't have let that girl lead the team. The competition hasn't even started yet and they're already at odds with each other."

  That technical soldier also had some schadenfreude and said, "Don't even mention it, among domestic universities of the same type, their school's admission score line is already high. With a sufficient source of students and an extremely hard background, both hardware and software are renowned domestically and internationally. The students inside are notoriously arrogant."

  They talked like this and Xiang Hong had already opened up with that boy.

  Since she had decided to end it quickly, she wouldn't go easy on him. She used the moves she usually practiced specifically for Qin Qing and Song Shuyu, and struck that boy with them.

  The boy was not weak, but because he underestimated the enemy and lost the initiative, he was forced to be at a loss by Sang Hong's swift and fierce attack. In the end, without even throwing a punch at Sang Hong, he was kicked down by her.

  She was neither arrogant nor impatient, still posing and waiting for him to get up and fight again.

  The boy, although defeated in a bizarre way, was still clear-headed. He got up, brushed off the dirt on his body and politely said:

  "Scouting team Zhang Wu, I've heard of your great name long ago. Today, I've experienced it for myself. Alright, how do you plan to carry out this operation? We'll follow your lead."

  "Alright, let's get moving! Set up the tents quickly and take turns keeping watch in two-hour shifts. We can't afford to sleep for more than five hours at most."

  Li Bin's eyes widened inside the tent monitoring room, and he looked at Technician Xiaobing: "Are you sure?"

  "No, how did it end so quickly?" The little soldier said, starting to rewind the tape, playing a slow-motion shot. Li Bin leaned in closer and closer, looking more and more shocked.

  "This - this girl's means are quite extraordinary, able to exert her flexibility very well under the height pressure of this boy, what a talent!"

  Li Bin exclaimed in surprise, raised his hand to gesture, thinking that if this little girl came to attack him like this, he didn't have an extremely effective move to counter her, and wondered if he would also be forced into a flurry of activity.

  He smiled after a few strokes: "Completely walking on the flexible route, quick attack and quick fight, changing positions quickly, who can train such skills." He narrowed his eyes and stared at Sang Hong on the screen with great interest.

  At 4:30 the next morning, Sang Hong ran out for a lap and came back to wake everyone up to quickly pack up the campsite. Then, the eight of them took off running.

  Outside, a vast and quiet wilderness, the calls of birds and insects are clear and audible. Those who left the camp last night have disappeared without a trace, apparently they went in from dawn.

  Xiang Hong led the group to a small mound near the forest, hid behind it, and then started to camouflage everyone. She took out a special face paint from the box, mixed it with insect repellent cream, and said with a smile:

  "This small amount of mosquito repellent is not enough to use, I thought for a long time before going to bed last night, and then I remembered that this kind of face-painting camouflage oil is not easy to wash off, mixing the two together will definitely have an extraordinary effect."

  Because she last entered the jungle of HN, even the insect repellent in Song Shuyu's bag was used up, and she was still bitten by mosquitoes into that pitiful state. She thought about it, and decided that it was because sweat could wash away the medicine. With this oil paint, relying on its durability, this ointment might last a bit longer.

  Those people knew that the red spots on her face were caused by mosquito bites, and they didn't dare to take her words lightly, but instead started imitating her makeup.

  Xiang Hong carefully and meticulously applied makeup to that small face, quickly transforming it into a frog-like complexion, making people unable to help but laugh.

  Lai Li disdainfully blinked his eyes and stared at her: "Sang Hong, with this makeup, it's really disgusting, a complete monster."

  "Be good, listen to some advice, otherwise your face will be ruined and you'll become as ugly as an animal in the jungle! It's better that way, so you won't be found out by those people and get killed."

  My combat strategy is to dodge if possible, hide if possible, and never strike unless forced to do so, and never strike unless I have a 90% chance of winning.

  Everyone remembers."

  "What kind of people do you think those eight people will be?" The girl asked with a hint of discontent.

  Everyone couldn't help but frown, such common sense had to be asked, what kind of people are these!

  Xiang Hong said helplessly, "Didn't you hear the captain say he's a veteran? It's impossible for someone who has been in the army for just one or two years to be considered old. Ordinary soldiers are even less likely. What concept is this, one against five?"

  It's simply unthinkable, it must be those veteran special forces who have been through a hundred battles. I even had the idea that maybe they were about to retire and the troops let them find their own replacements themselves?

  "Damn it! Those people are absolutely deadly with their bare hands, we can't beat them even if they're unarmed."

  The boys in the Electrical Engineering Department couldn't help but burst out with profanity, and he obviously also agreed with Sang Hong's speculation.

  "What if we run into them?!" The girl couldn't help but look a bit foolish.

  "Get smart, otherwise what's the point of having a team!"

  "Let's make a plan, if we all encounter him together, we'll catch him off guard; if someone encounters him alone, they can run away if possible, or surrender directly." Sang Hong said straightforwardly.

  "Uh-huh, it's best if everyone doesn't fall behind, stick closely to the team." Zhang Wu felt a bit relieved that they hadn't impulsively left the main group last night. With eight people together, the sense of safety and survival chances would definitely be much higher than with four people.

  "Right, fellow students from the Electrical and Mechanical Department, can you use the things in our backpacks to make some attacking tools with a bit of lethality or intimidation? Your skills are well-known in our college."

  Xiang Hong assigned tasks.

  "Hmph, when we changed clothes last night, everyone was searched thoroughly. They're useless without their materials, what a waste! Laili regretted it endlessly, her trusty private weapon, the whip, was confiscated and she wasn't allowed to bring it."

  Xiang Hong waved her hand at Lai Li and smiled kindly:

  "It's only you, this fool, who brings such a powerful attack weapon, it's strange if it wasn't confiscated! But when the mechanical and electrical students arrive, there must be masters to guide them, otherwise they would have been confiscated clean?"

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, the boy who had just cursed suddenly looked a bit embarrassed and rubbed his head, saying:

  "Actually, I did bring some, enough to set up a simple camp defense or lay some traps. The gunpowder was confiscated, and what's left on me is really too little, so it's not worth mentioning."

  Xiang Hong encouraged: "Play to your strengths, see what you need in the backpack, we can defeat or even capture those powerful people, apart from teamwork, it's up to you;

  "Not until it's absolutely necessary, we must not engage in a group fight, or else someone will definitely get knocked out."

  Everyone responded in agreement and continued chatting and laughing to relax.

  The people from the Department of Electrical Engineering just took action, and everyone was amazed. They simply took a fuse wire and threaded it through their collars, then used a precise small device to set it off with a series of clicks, and stuffed an earplug into each of their ears.

  You'd think what, everyone even in whispers, can still hear clearly.

  Everyone was amazed and wanted to cheer or learn from others, but Shang Hong's voice was extremely small and she whispered:

  "Be quiet, everyone hide quickly, they're coming."

  Xiang Hong said as she turned over and lay on her back holding a telescope looking up at the sky.

  Everyone pricked up their ears to listen, but they couldn't hear any sound.

  The time was not long, and only black shadows appeared in the sky. The falling speed of those black shadows was very fast, almost like bullets shooting down. When they reached an altitude of about 20 meters, the colorful parachutes behind them suddenly opened.

  "Awesome, truly a case of 'the greater the skill, the greater the daring'. When we were training to parachute jump, our instructor kept emphasizing that after jumping out of the plane, we had to open the parachute within ten seconds at most. Look at him."

  "If we had fired experimental shells and aimed directly at them, I wonder if the ones that hit would be considered prisoners of war." Some people even joked about it.

  "Be quiet and watch how they move towards their target. Observe the actions of these veteran soldiers, such learning opportunities are rare."

  Everyone fell silent, all took out their binoculars to find a suitable target and began to observe.

  In less than five minutes, those eight people wearing green military uniforms quickly entered the forest.

  Xiang Hong was somewhat taken aback, she could keenly sense the fierce and daring aura emanating from these people, that kind of sharpness and vigilance, the speed and endurance of their hidden movements, left her staring in amazement.

  Because she observed that target from entering the woods afterwards, her figure only flashed two or three times, and she couldn't see it again.

  There were many people who were as surprised as her, because when she raised her head, she could meet the nearly shocked gaze of everyone.

  She licked her lips and said with a somewhat dry throat:

  "Look at their speed, think about our speed last night, sigh, the difference isn't just a little bit; and this kind of stealthy pace, feels so eerie."

  Fang Mingyuan flipped over and got up, looked around at the quiet forest and said, "Shouldn't we be leaving?"

  Xiang Hong smiled and asked her classmates in the investigation department, "What kind of distance can track down the opponent while keeping our people within a safe area?"

  Zhang Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "I estimate that two hours later, three hours before, the trampled tree leaves and grass roots are generally irreparable, and the tracking marks can be accurately found.

  However, given these people's speed and experience, the traces they left behind were absolutely minimal, at most an hour, this safety distance was opened up, any later, it would be difficult to track down.

  "Everyone stay where you are and rest. No big movements allowed. Eat something while resting, we'll depart exactly in an hour."

  "Why must we crawl? Although it's cooler on the ground, isn't it more comfortable to stand up and feel the gentle morning breeze?" The girl complained.

  "Half an hour is enough to pull open the distance, looking at others encountering their opponents, we're being so timid, isn't that too much?" A boy urged, eager to give it a try.

  Xiang Hong lowered her head and took out the compressed biscuits from her bag, rustling as she tore open the vacuum packaging, saying casually:

  "Just now when we were all peeking at them, I guess we would be discovered. Did any of you classmates feel anything unusual during the observation just now?"

  "Abnormal, I don't know if this is abnormal or just an illusion I'm having;"

  I held the binoculars and looked at that person, before he entered the woods, it seemed like he turned his head back to smile at me, I saw very clearly, he showed white teeth, a very handsome uncle.

  The girl seemed to recall the scene at that time, with a look of infatuation on her face.

  Everyone couldn't help but see a dazed expression on her face, how did this girl become sleepwalking so early in the morning.

  Zhao Yibo was crawling there, looking at the telescope without blinking an eye, and he also said:

  "She said that, and I suddenly remembered that the person I was observing seemed to have also discovered me peeking at him. When he ran into the woods, he turned his head back at least twice with a look of alarm. Once he entered the woods, I never saw him again."

  Everyone was shocked because in their experience, they had just seen the figures of those people swaying, at least moving twice before disappearing.

  "Do you remember clearly if you ever saw his figure flash by?" Sang Hong asked Zhao Yibo.

  Zhao Yibo said firmly: "I guarantee what I say is not a bit false or supplemented by imagination."

  "What I just said is not a bit false or imaginary, that handsome uncle ran into the woods and hid behind a tree after a few strides."

  The girl also hastily defended herself.

  Xiang Hong glanced at their position and smiled as she nodded to the person beside her:

  "It's normal, because of your position, facing east, I estimate that the telescope lens reflected a bit of light and they noticed it. Others didn't notice this situation, which means at least one person might be waiting for us on the edge of the woods."

  So we can't move, Zhao Yibo, you continue to stare at that direction, and inform us of any movement. After I finish eating, I'll take over for you.

  "We must be patient and calm, he will doubt his own judgment or think it's the camp people; if we act rashly and are targeted by him, we will inevitably lose soldiers and generals; worse still, the whole army will be destroyed."

  Shang Hong's words were well-reasoned and astonishing, leaving everyone speechless, and they all quietly crawled back to eating.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  "Sure enough, more than ten minutes later, Zhao Yibo excitedly said: "I saw him, he left, he left, his figure changed in two places, and then disappeared."

  Everyone else also let out a sigh of relief, then slowly sat up, stretched their limbs and ate with big mouthfuls.

  An hour later, they stood up and set off. They found that the helicopters in the big camp were hovering at the edge of the jungle. Lyle shrugged his shoulders and said: "I guess someone has been eliminated."

  They walked into the jungle for about twenty minutes, and the display screen on their wrist compass showed that 3 people were out.

  Everyone was shocked, and someone was eliminated so quickly, which can only prove that the opponent is extremely powerful.

  Taking advantage of no pursuers behind, Sang Hong and others ran at full speed for an hour.

  Walking behind indeed has its benefits, some unpredictable dangers were dispersed by the people in front, even the paths that seemed to lead nowhere had been pioneered by others, saving a lot of trouble.

  The slaughter along the way was simply too heavy, those snakes hanging from trees and small animals lying on the ground that couldn't be named made people look at them in extreme horror.

  "Such an obvious path, being tracked and attacked by others is too likely, however, as long as they are not in danger, it won't be our turn, let's just follow them like this."

  After walking for about half an hour, Fang Hong's brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

  Because all the way here, there was no sign of attack or fighting at all, but as I walked, I suddenly realized that people on this road seemed to have disappeared.

  The road is very flat and can even be described as smooth, the vegetation on the ground is being destroyed more and more lightly, and the phenomenon of killing small animals is almost invisible.

  Small animals? No, there is almost no sign of small animal survival here.

  Xiang Hong couldn't understand how in such a lush and vibrant jungle, there could be a place that made people feel so eerie.

  She quietly asked two classmates from the reconnaissance department who were leading the way, what's going on.

  Those two people also felt inexplicable.

  They walked very seriously and looked carefully, it was this road, no one found any signs of leaving the team.

  Xiang Hong rearranged the formation, with the reconnaissance team's classmates at the very front changing to a single file line, in an arrowhead formation. The students walking in the middle were responsible for keeping watch on their heads.

  The pathfinder in front, following others to walk, the trailblazer behind, clearing the traces. After all, having entered the forest quite deeply, the directions that may be attacked by people will become more and more.

  They had only walked for over ten meters when, suddenly, the reconnaissance team's classmate who was walking ahead turned around and waved at them. The seven of them immediately stood up in their defensive positions, alertly calling out to each other about the surrounding movements.

  "From here on, there was no sign of anything, those people all disappeared - vanished into thin air."

  The students in the reconnaissance department whispered quietly, their voices reaching the ears of other students, bringing a wave of horror and terror.

  Xiang Hong's eyes darted around cautiously, and she was shocked to discover that in this lush forest with excellent vegetation, the shrubs that were supposed to be everywhere were actually very scarce. Right behind her, there was a small cluster of shrubs, so pitifully small that it seemed to have been planted on a busy road, with its branches pruned all over the place.

  She crouched down and looked at this shrub, smelling a faint animal smell.

  Suddenly, she found a scale-like thing about the size of a fingernail on a branch.

  Zhao Yibo saw that she seemed to have discovered something, so he asked her. She beckoned him to come over, and Zhao Yibo raised his hand to touch it. Sang Hong shook her head and didn't let him touch it. The four people responsible for guarding the perimeter did not move, and the two people in the middle also followed them over.

  Fang Mingyuan took one glance and knew what it was. He exclaimed: "Snake scales! But, where can you find snake scales this big?!"

  Xiang Hong was so frightened that she jumped up and said: "This place is dangerous, it's possible that there are huge pythons lurking around that can swallow people whole. How could this be a training base with such an outrageous thing?"

  "Which direction should we retreat to?"

  Zhao Yibo was also terrified, he had seen the giant python in the park, the shed scales of the snake with a diameter of half a foot were only as big as corn kernels, such large scales could completely swallow a person.

  Xiang Hong turned around to see the girl who was in charge of scouting ahead floating up into the air, her body weightless. The girl was shocked to the extreme, unable to even let out a cry of surprise.

  "Quickly, run!" - She pushed Zhao Yibo far away and instead shouted as she ran over, opening the tight leather jacket's protective sleeve, rushing towards the girl who was sucked into the air.

  The crowd was shocked by her scream, and suddenly they saw the girl from the reconnaissance department dancing in mid-air about three or four meters high, with no tools to support her ascent at all, and everyone was stunned.
