“Gentlemen, since you are all elite special forces from around the world, I won’t say much. There are only two requirements for the competition: first, kill your opponents! Second, secure victory! I wish you good luck!”
A bearded officer from M Country stood on a high platform and delivered an extremely brief opening speech.
That’s right.
The World Special Forces competition allowed casualties.
That was also why it was so authoritative.
After he stepped down from the platform, the competition officially began, and more than a dozen special forces teams boarded helicopters.
They would be randomly dropped within a twenty-kilometer radius of deep mountains and dense forests.
In this vast wilderness, strength alone did the talking.
The instructors all gathered in the hall.
On the screen, there were dots representing their respective teams.
This was the only information they could see.
Everyone stared at the large screen with a solemn expression.
The only exception was Xue An, who casually sat on the sofa, sipping vodka mouthful by mouthful.
He had started to enjoy the taste and even began drinking it like water.
Then there was Black Snake, who also sat calmly in the distance, having not even lifted his head to glance at the large screen, as if he had complete confidence in his team.
In another room, Chekhov was watching the surveillance screens in the hall, took a sip from his flask, and chuckled, “Su Shanna, who do you think will win among these people’s teams?”
Su Shanna respectfully replied, “General, in my opinion, it should be China’s Fire Phoenix.”
“Oh? Why?” Chekhov was curious.
“Because the instructor of Fire Phoenix… is very strong!” explained Su Shanna.
Chekhov smiled, his gaze fixed on the screen that showed Xue An drinking, “I heard that when you went to China, you were defeated by him?”
“Yes!”
“But I think that the outcome of this competition is unpredictable; after all, M Country’s Hei Manba is not to be trifled with, and this Black Snake is the Divine Slaughter who once galloped across the D battlefields,” said Chekhov indifferently.
Su Shanna bowed her head and said nothing.
Chekhov, with his back to her, eyes flickering slightly, then said softly, “Su Shanna, remember, you are always a loyal soldier of E Country, do not be blinded by personal relationships!”
A flicker of confusion passed through Su Shanna’s eyes, not understanding why the general would suddenly make such a statement, but she still responded respectfully, “Yes!”
“To these brave warriors!” Chekhov raised his flask toward the distant forest, the corners of his mouth revealing a hint of a cold smile.
Ten minutes after the competition started.
The number of dots on the big screen began to decrease rapidly.
Exclamations filled the hall, many instructors turning pale.
Although the competition had just started, it was vaguely evident that two teams were reaping the battlefield.
Soon, the first team was eliminated.
This also set the record for the fastest elimination in the history of the competition.
While everyone else was in a state of shock and confusion, Xue An remained composed, for he had absolute confidence in his subordinates.
Last night, to adapt to the harsh illusions of the Siberian jungle, Xue An specially made them undergo the Inner Demon Trial several times.
Just as Xue An thought.
At this moment, in the snow-covered jungle, Zou Yi was crouching and stealthily advancing.
He was wearing a snow-white combat suit that made him virtually undetectable in the vast sea of trees.
But more importantly, Zou Yi had cultivated a technique specifically designed for stealth and assassination.
This was also a gift from Xue An.
After receiving it, Zou Yi began to practice it fervently. He now had achieved some proficiency, and while he might not compare with Cheng Hao or Sun Ling, he was certainly a master in his own right.
With his breath held and his spirit focused, he blended in with the surrounding environment; Zou Yi slowly approached a sniper who was hiding behind a mound of snow.
Ten meters!
Five meters!
Zou Yi could even see the faint warmth of breath coming from the sniper’s nostrils.
Suddenly, Zou Yi burst forth, stabbing directly into the space between the third and fourth vertebrae of the sniper’s spine from behind.
The blade severed blood vessels and nerves, and the sniper didn’t even let out a whimper before his body was paralyzed.
Before departing, as the team leader Cheng Hao had made it clear: this was war, and no mercy was to be shown.
After killing an enemy sniper, Zou Yi took a breath and was just about to go back into hiding.
Suddenly, a strong murderous aura came from the side.
Without even thinking, Zou Yi instinctively leaned back.
A bayonet emanating a sinister glow stabbed past where he had just been.
Zou Yi broke into a cold sweat; had his reaction been even a fraction slower, he would have been the one dead on the spot.
Only then did Zou Yi see clearly who the enemy was.
A foreign devil wearing a light combat uniform, his face etched with indifference.
“Damn, it’s Black Mamba!” Zou Yi recognized the opponent’s uniform and felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
The Black Mamba special forces were an extremely formidable team in this competition, and team leader Cheng Hao had mentioned that they were the true rivals.
Especially since these M Country bastards used biotechnology to turn each soldier into a killing machine.
So when Zou Yi saw this opponent, his heart couldn’t help but sink.
He was just about to dodge when the Black Mamba member’s bayonet thrust turned into a sweeping cut.
The speed of the change nearly scared Zou Yi to death.
It’s over, I’m dead for sure this time!
This thought had just risen in Zou Yi’s mind.
When a robust figure flashed before his eyes, taking the hit with his back.
With a clang, it actually made the sound of metal striking metal as if the man’s body weren’t made of flesh but cast from steel.
Zhou Daniu!
The once naive and sturdy man had now become one of the top experts on the team through practicing the Indestructible Vajra Method bestowed upon him by Xue An.
He was also Zou Yi’s golden partner.
Seeing him, Zou Yi let out a sigh of relief, but at that moment, the Black Mamba member leapt up, and the spiky end of his weapon plunged downwards.
Zou Yi couldn’t help but shout, “Watch out!”
A look of disdain appeared on Zhou Daniu’s face as he snorted angrily, his muscles shining as if coated in a faint layer of gold.
Crack.
The military spike actually broke.
Even the Black Mamba member was shocked by this.
Seizing the opportunity, Zhou Daniu turned around and sent his fist flying, blowing the enemy away.
After hitting the ground, the enemy’s chest and belly had burst open; he was dead on the spot.
“Nice one, Daniu, your Indestructible Vajra Method has improved again!” Zou Yi said with a smile.
Zhou Daniu chuckled naively, “Some parts I didn’t understand, the instructor explained to me this time, so naturally, I’ve become more formidable!”
“Good, now let’s meet up with the captain as we agreed. You take position at thirty degrees to my left, and we’ll move forward together!” Zou Yi said in a deep voice.
Zhou Daniu nodded.
Being simple-minded, he was the perfect partner for the clever-minded Zou Yi.
“Hehe, if we win the competition this time, maybe our instructor won’t leave!” Zou Yi said with a laugh.
Hearing this, Zhou Daniu’s eyes lit up, and he murmured resolutely, “For the instructor, I’ll tear these bastards to pieces!”
