The two screens that had lost their images and had turned into the black-and-white snow of static once again revealed the scene of the tropical rainforest. The black leather military boots began to rock gently back and forth once again.

In this tropical rainforest, the appearance of two mice wouldn’t draw the attention of others. Plus, no one would ever expect that these seemingly wild mice actually possessed pinhole cameras hidden within their hairs.

Bam… bam…

The monitors, which had its image restored just now, lost their pictures once again in an instant.

The two mice had just exited the hole of the tree and were about to crawl and spiral around the tree. However, the two mice were suddenly turned into two piles of red meat paste.

Qin Fen raised his foot. He didn’t even spare a glance at the mice, now turned into meat paste from his stomp. He quickly moved deeper into the rainforest.

There are forces that didn’t possess enough information. There needed to be a person to engage in ad hoc and effective scouting. Qin Fen, Du Zhanpeng, and Lin Ling were undoubtedly the most suitable candidates for the job among their forces.

It was just that their forces still needed to have one person be the talented commander. As someone born from a military family, Du Zhanpeng naturally became the best candidate for the job out of all the recruits.

And it was in this way that the heavy responsibility of scouting and investigation naturally fell onto the shoulders of Qin Fen and Lin Ling.

Bam bam…

Two more monitors displayed the black-and-white snow of static. It was just that this time, the video feeds came from cameras that were quite some distance away from the first two cameras that had been destroyed, their feeds still conveying the black-and-white snow of static. It was clearly impossible for one person to have done all of this.

Two mice were released, and they quickly perished and left this world.

The shaking movement of the black military boots stopped once more. They were quickly collected from the top of the operator’s desk.

The tall, large, black, leather swivel chair gently swayed back and forth. Thick and solid arms revealed themselves from the two armrests of the swivel chair.

Creak.

The black leather chair let out a painful ground. The man sitting atop of it slowly stood up.

A height of one hundred and seventy centimeters wasn’t that tall, but the thick figure lets one easily mentally associate the man with a tank, the weapon that had long since been made obsolete by mobile armors.

There were scorpion tattoos all over the white skin. It was as if scorpions had pierced into his skin.

If Qin Fen was here to see this man’s appearance, he would certainly become excited in an instant.

Scarlet Scorpion, a valiant general of God’s Chosen Nation. This man had plotted and executed over thirty incidents of terrorism. If an executioner was described to have both hands soaked with blood, thence Scarlet Scorpion’s entire body was soaked in blood.

This was a martial artist who rumors claim he possessed six-star meteor level strength. The Federation opened a large bounty of a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the sake of eliminating this man.

“Not bad. It looks like I underestimated this recruit.” Scarlet Scorpion clapped gently. His black leather gloves, which he wore year-round on his hands, let out muffled puffing sound.

Scarlet Scorpion gently warmed up his shoulders. He took a striding step outside of the monitoring room. His lips muttered endlessly. “Motherfucker! I wasn’t even allowed to bring heavy weaponry for the sake of not drawing too much of the Federation’s attention. They just gave me a pile of ancient AK-47s and two mountain guns. Even a mortar would’ve been better than this! Since I now know what kind of people the enemy are, then just dispatch the Eagle to investigate and see just how many people there are. As long as I can wait it out until the promised time, I will have completed my mission.”

Qin Fen destroyed several dozen cameras in his wake. He arrived in the vicinity of the first checkpoint where the enemy was likely to appear.

An enormous rock poked out of the ground, its diameter hundred meters. To the left and right sides of this rock was some space. The space wasn’t that wide, but it was wide enough to allow five people to run shoulder to shoulder with each other at the same time.

On the other face of this enormous rock was a vast ground nearly a hundred meters wide. There were no rocks nor weeds nor rainforest trees here.

To the other side of this vast ground sat a two-story high building both from stone. Just looking at the map, Qin Fen knew that this place was extremely suited to form a blockade.

“Exhale…”

Lin Ling, who was thirteen meters away, hurriedly gave Qin Fen a greeting. Then she took a path and felt her way toward one side of the vast ground that the enormous rock faced.

Qin Fen understood her quite well. He chose the other path and slowly felt his way up.

Each person walked to their own path. They were clearly completely unable to see any enemies, and because they were scared of enemies appearing, they didn’t dare to use wireless communication devices. Yet, they practically turned the corner and face the vast ground and the large building at the same time, stopping their footsteps.

“There is a murderous air about.” Qin Fen quietly closed his eyes. He relied on his extraordinary martial senses to perceive the situation of the building in the distance.

There was only one sniper, and the sniper’s position should be above the second story. It was just that the concrete position…

Qin Fen didn’t completely believe in the map that the military had provided. He concealed his aura and strove to merge his aura with the surrounding nature.

A sniper’s intuition was an extremely terrifying thing. Qin Fen knew that if he was the slightest bit inharmonious with his surroundings, he could be found out by the enemy at any time.

He warned himself in his heart thoroughly. This place wasn’t training. This place was the true battlefield of slaughter. This was a place where one little mistake would cause true death.

He calmed his mental state once again, and the teachings on concealment from Drill Instructor Gale Riley quickly flashed in his mind. The energy of his body was gradually partitioned off completely. He moved his entire body extremely slowly, as if he were an old adult turtle. His head probed out from the ground bit by bit.

The building didn’t look to be built like a pillbox. It was not a stupid building that could be easily seized with just a bit of firepower.

In the modern era, pillboxes were the most idiotic targets. A single armor-piercing mortar shell could reduce such a building into a pile of ruin and debris, even if built with reinforced concrete. If, miraculously, those inside didn’t die from the explosion, they would be shocked to death alive merely from the shockwave.

This was what the building looked like from the outside. It had an enormously large roof, and the roof was covered in a mess of branches. Threads of light shone from between the branches and leaves.

Qin Fen discovered a sniper among there, as well as fifteen or so people carrying AK-47s. From the positions they chose, as well as their ability to conceal their auras, these people were all excellent candidates to be placed in a special forces unit if they were in the Federation’s military.

After confirming that there weren’t any heavy weapons on the surface, Qin Fen quietly retreated back to the large rock.

He moved to a different location to reconvene with Lin Ling. This ice-cold, expressionless, yet utterly perfect woman did something very rare of her. She took the initiative to talk. “One sniper and fifteen people wielding AK-47s. I am guessing that they all possess special strength.”

Qin Fen nodded in agreement but was just as shocked at the same time. How in the world was this woman’s speed this quick? And her scouted information was so accurate.

Qin Fen watched as Lin Ling took the initiative to leave, and he really wanted to know just who in the world was this woman’s master. If Drill Instructor Gale Riley found out that he just lost to her, would Gale Riley be just like Gun King? Would he torment him every day to hover between life and death?

At the beach, nearly a hundred soldiers quietly held the Sandy shores closest to the rainforest. Du Peng’s eyes revealed an anxious gaze. Once in a while, he would even cast a gaze full of hatred toward Du Zhanpeng.

If Du Zhanpeng did not stop him… Du Peng’s first thought was to request to engage in scouting. However, Du Zhanpeng used his identity as the ad hoc commander of their small team to refuse and put a stop to it.

The reason was that Qin Fen and Lin Ling were the only ones truly suited for the job.

Just as everyone cheered for Du Zhanpeng’s wise and impartial decision, Du Zhanpeng whispered some mocking words to Du Peng as he walked by him. “Trash, you think I would give chances to earn meritorious service like scouting to you? Bastard children don’t have the qualifications for meritorious service. When the time comes to accept the award for completing the mission, the biggest insult will be standing next to you.”

Qin Fen and Lin Ling finally returned back to their forces.

Du Zhanpeng gathered up at the first instant. Immediately, the other recruits all congregated together as well under Du Zhanpeng’s orders.

“What is the situation? Everyone, do not be anxious. Listen to what Qin Fen has to say.”

When compared to Lin Ling, who was always silent, not talkative, and never tried to work with anyone during training, Du Zhanpeng had more confidence with Qin Fen, who often helped other people out during training.

“We could only examine the first checkpoint. I don’t have the ability to continue on further if needed.” Qin Fen faintly said, “I have already cleared the traps and obstacles on the roads. There is a sniper at the top of the building made of stone. He should possess sniping capabilities that are out of the norm. There were also fifteen thugs holding AK-47s. There is also the possibility of people concealing themselves, enemies who I’ve yet to discover.”

After Qin Fen finished speaking, he used his finger to create a map and the sandy beach. The map was quickly finished.

Du Zhanpeng had a solemn expression as he looked at the map. The person who had built this building was certainly a decent local tactical master. During the construction of the building, this person had calculated the two large mountains on both sides in the surroundings it in its design.

It wasn’t impossible to make their way from the back of the large mountain to mount a sneak attack against the building. It was just that…

Du Zhanpeng knew that when surmounting this mountain range, his group of people would already become the garden targets of the enemy. On this island, the most open places were all situated at the tops of these two mountains.

With such an environment as the mountain peak, even a slightly large act, let alone nearly a hundred soldiers, would be easily discovered when traveling there.

“In other words, we can only listen to the military’s orders. We can only raise our P308’s and engage in a frontal assault?”

Du Zhanpeng rubbed his chin, feeling unwilling to accept this. Such a decision was in no way a good decision.

Qin Fen sighed deeply. He slowly nodded and said. “Indeed.”

A frontal assault? Du Zhanpeng’s smile was quite that of helplessness. Perhaps it was best to say that he really didn’t want to smile. However, he smiled anyway, because he felt that a frontal assault as a decision was truly something that felt extremely ridiculous.

They didn’t even have grenade launchers, let alone mortars and other powerful heavy weaponry to use as threats.

Even the fifteen people holding superior ground with AK-47s gave one an incomparable headache just the same.

It was that saying again. This was no training exercise. This was the unadorned battlefield of slaughter. Just the slightest carelessness would lead to people’s deaths.

“There aren’t any other routes we can take?” Du Zhanpeng was still unwilling. He had received the faith of this many people not for the sake of bringing them to jump into the pit the fire.

“There is. “Qin Fen pointed at the large ocean expanse behind him. “Swim over from here.”

Du Zhanpeng’s smile turned even more bitter and astringent. Having everyone carry heavy weapons to swim in the ocean? Even if they were able to make their way around and over, their physical stamina probably wouldn’t even last to fight in a single fierce battle.
