Chapter 52 - Outfield Combat Exercise
Chapter 52: Outfield Combat Exercise
Ten days later.
An outfield combat competition for the new special agent cadets began in the tropical rainforest.
“After many days of training, all of you have mastered the qualities and basic abilities that special agents should possess. This is an initiation for all of you!”
“Your mission is to return to the training camp alive within 24 hours.”
“This is a harsh test. Those who are not strong enough will be in great danger. It is possible that some people might die in the rainforest behind them!”
While Bai Xue was lecturing thm, she kept glancing at Wu Mei, trying to hint to her and affect her mentality. However, Wu Mei completely ignored her.
All the cadets were blindfolded and sent to different places by helicopter. When they landed, it signalled the start of the competition!
Wu Mei took off her blindfold and squatted down. She picked up the moist soil and sniffed it. Looking at the dense leaves that completely blocked out the sunlight, she closed her eyes and recalled the geographical location, longitude and latitude and bearings of the rainforest. With that, she determined the location she was at and her distance to the training ground…
She walked around the potholed swamps and water pits for two hours before taking a break.
Wu Mei noticed some fresh animal footprints in the mud nearby and looked up at the sky, wanting to rush back as soon as possible. She squatted by the pond and wanted to wash her face with water. Just as she stood up, someone suddenly leapt down from the treetops and covered her mouth and nose with a towel!
“…”
Wu Mei realised that the drug sprayed on the towel was ether.
She only inhaled a small amount for half a second, but the concentration used by the attacker was extremely strong, so it still affected her slightly.
If the other party was an ordinary person, Wu Mei would be able to subdue him. However, the other party was also a special agent… She was not confident and could only hold her breath and pretend to be unconscious, allowing him to drag her to the tree roots.
“Hehe, I really overestimated her!”
“As expected of someone who came in through connections. She was knocked out so easily!”
Qi Feng took out the rope he carried with him and tried to tie Wu Mei’s hands to the tree trunk.
Wu Mei took advantage of the moment when he let down his guard as he looked for his folding knife to cut the rope. She opened her eyes and lifted her leg to kick at his chest!
She grabbed the rope and strangled Qi Feng from behind!
Qi Feng felt suffocated. His vision was pitch black, and he could not think of any way to fight back at this critical moment. His struggle became weaker and weaker.
Wu Mei did not intend to kill him. She tied his hands behind his back and tied them to the tree trunk.
“Mounting a sneak attack on me, is that considered capability? If you’re capable, we’ll fight with real weapons!” Qi Feng shouted.
“Mounting a sneak attack? You’re the one who came pouncing down from the tree, aren’t you?”
Wu Mei picked up the towel on the floor and put it into her backpack. When he saw her actions, Qi Feng felt a little ashamed and shut up.
“You’re as strong as a bull but your methods are quite underhanded!”
Wu Mei opened the folding knife. “You tried to harm me, so I have to teach you a lesson.”
She slowly moved her knife closer and made a few deep cuts on Qi Feng’s leg.
Qi Feng yelled in pain, “What are you doing?! Give me a quick death!”
“Don’t be anxious. I believe Instructor Bai didn’t tell you that there are many wild beasts in the tropical rainforest. They are all bloodthirsty. As long as they smell the scent of fresh blood, they will surround their prey or carrion, then bite and swallow them alive!”
“You are now the most delicious food! You’re too tempting.”
Wu Mei quickly climbed up the tree next to them and sat on the treetop. She picked a fruit and watched as Qi Feng’s face turned ashen.
“Do you think they will bite your head or your arm when they surround you?”
Wu Mei’s voice made Qi Feng feel fear. He pretended to be calm and said, “Y-you, I! I’m not afraid!”
“Since I’m going to be a special agent, I should look past life and death…”
Qi Feng’s voice quavered when he saw the wild beasts surrounding him. They were scratching the ground with their claws and revealing their sharp fangs as they surrounded him.
Eventually…
Qi Feng screamed, “I… I was wrong! Help! Wu Mei, help me!”
Seeing that the other party had broken down mentally, Wu Mei threw the fruit core onto the head of a wild beast.
“I’m sorry! Wu Mei, I targeted you in the past but I’ll do whatever you tell me to do in the future! Save me, I don’t want to die here!” Qi Feng apologized profusely. He almost peed his pants when he saw the wild beast being angered by the two black fruits. His teeth were chattering.
“Wu Mei! Save me!”
Wu Mei laughed when she heard Qi Feng’s desperate plea.
She thought that he was a guy with a backbone, but turns out he’s a cowardly trash!
