Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion
“Stop!” Wang Ye’s voice was low andmanding as he held his gun, aiming it at the approaching figure.
“No, 1 don’t have any paper. Brother, do you have some? Give me two…”
The person continued to advance, but in the next moment, after uttering those words, he suddenly exploded into action, lunging at Wang Ye.
In reality, the experienced soldier was cursing internally.
What on earth? Why was this new recruit so alert?
Logically, most people would be incredibly drowsy at this time. Fatigue would slow down their brains, and new recruits who hadn’t faced such situations before would likely be even less vignt.
However, Wang Ye’s level of alertness caught him off guard.
Thankfully, the situation wasn’t dire; the person was less than three meters away from Wang Ye.
Close enough to strike.
From this range, he believed he could swiftly incapacitate this new recruit and prevent any furthermotion.
Yet, the ideal scenario in his mind didn’t match the harsh reality.
Wang Ye’s reaction speed exceeded that of an ordinary person, enabling him to swiftly evade to the left the instant his attacker pounced.
“Enemy attack!” Wang Ye’s voice boomed.
An unloaded gun posed no real threat. Instead, it hindered his ability to retaliate effectively.
Of course, Wang Ye’s initial response wasn’t focused on counterattacking.
Having sidestepped with remarkable speed, Wang Ye, who possessed extraordinary reflexes, locked his gaze onto the person and unleashed a roar. “Fuck!”
The seasoned soldier, who had missed his target, cursed inwardly.
He even felt like cursing his own existence.
What in the world? How could this new recruit react so swiftly? He had miscalcted.
And not only had he missed, but why had this new recruit bellowed so forcefully?
Typically, when faced with such a situation, a new recruit would panic initially.
If they managed to shout, it would take them some time to react and raise the rm.
So why had this new recruit ignored the expected sequence?
Wasn’t he just a recruit?
Since when did a seasoned soldier don the uniform of a new recruit to take over guard duty?
Frozen in ce, he regarded Wang Ye with a mix of seriousness and disbelief.
This was the singr thought looping through his mind.
“You actually deployed veterans for sentry duty!”
He glowered at Wang Ye, his expression taut with usation.
Wang Ye was momentarily stunned. Then, he scanned his surroundings.
In that instant, he spotted two figures at the sentry post some ten meters away. One of them was gagged, his throat constricted.
Twisting around, he observed the other sentry post behind him, finding the same scenario ying out.
Even the other two sentry posts he could barely discern in the night were covertly incapacitated.
He conjectured that the remaining three, or rather, judging by this individual’s attire, the three concealed sentries, must have been neutralized beforehand. “Get up…Quick, enemy attack!”
In the midst of this chaos, the nearby tent also descended into pandemonium.
Certain individuals even rushed out without bothering to don their clothing. Facing the unfamiliar assant with a grimace, Wang Ye shed a grin, remarking, “No, I’m a new recruit!”
“Humph!” The individual before him merely scowled and let out a dismissive snort.
“Retreat! What the hell are you doing?”
Abruptly, from the sentry post on the right, the veteran who had restrained the vice-captain of the seventh squad bellowed furiously.
Having spoken, he released the captive recruit and bolted away.
The individual confronting Wang Ye reacted in kind. He cast onest assessing nce at Wang Ye, then pivoted and fled.
However, in that instant, Wang Ye’s eyes narrowed. Shunting his somewhat obstructive firearm to the side, he lunged forward, aiming to seize his target. Fleeing just like that after causing a scare? No way!
Startled moments ago, she was now attempting to abscond, driven by fear. Not on his watch.
“Don’t let them get away, apprehend them!”
At that very juncture, the resounding roar of Wu Jianfeng cut through the tumult.
He had only just emerged from the tent and was still haphazardly attired. Yet, upon hearing the call for retreat, he issued a countermand.
“Fuck!”
Wang Ye’s movements were swift, the distance between them modest. When the veteran had lunged at Wang Ye earlier, he hadn’t anticipated that Wang Ye would dare to grasp him.
However, now, Wang Ye’s grip was firm.
Muttering a low oath, the veteran opted against evasive action. Instead, he seized hold of Wang Ye’s hand with his left.
He aimed to impart a lesson to Wang Ye, teaching him that even among veterans, hierarchies persisted.
He was… The apex of the reconnaissance toon, a status not attainable by mere recruits from conventionalpanies.
Bang!
He had Wang Ye’s wrist in a death grip.
Yet, to his astonishment, the instant his grip tightened, Wang Ye’s hand encircled his wrist.
With little deliberation, he exerted force with his left hand, simultaneously thrusting his left foot backward in a direct kick.
His goal? To wrench Wang Ye off bnce and send him sprawling before making his escape.
However…
Wang Ye wasn’t a passive target, nor was he your run-of-the-mill rookie.
The kick found its target empty.
Because, as he lifted his leg, Wang Ye responded with exceptional speed.
Anchoring himself on his right foot, he executed a forceful pivot to the left. They were still joined at the wrist.
His maneuver was a backhand, Wang Ye’s was not.
sping his left hand with his right, Wang Ye’s left fist clenched. As he rotated, he unleashed his arm in a swing toward the veteran’s head.
Indeed, this individual showcased impressive agility. In this instant, he deftly bent forward, averting his head to evade Wang Ye’s assault.
Simultaneously, he executed a swift pivot, preparing to mount a retaliatory strike.
But Wang Ye wasn’t about to extend him any opportunities.
He plowed into him with unreserved force.
In the blink of an eye, both figures tumbled to the ground.
“You bastard!” The man cursed under his breath, a mix of frustration and resignation, yet clearly disinclined to prolong the altercation.
As they descended, their grips ckened.
His intention was to sprint to his feet and flee.
For the horde emerging from the tent behind them swelled by the moment.
Moreover, the earlier evacuees had evidently apprised the onlookers of the unfolding situation as they rushed towards the scene, moring and gesticting.
“Apprehend him!”
“Don’t let him get away!”
The ss monitors’ voices reverberated as they surged forward.
This only heightened his unease.
A veteran of the reconnaissance toon he may be, but tonight’s mission hung in the bnce.
The mission unaplished would be tolerable.
If captured…
He dared not fathom the repercussions upon his return.
His impulse to flee surged.
However, in the next heartbeat, he found himself once more weighed down, his form crashing to the ground afresh.
Wang Ye sprang up and lunged, promptly pinning him down anew.
“Haha!”
In that very juncture, the heartyughter of Ye Sanshi echoed.
Swiftly thereafter, Wang Ye felt a weight descend onto his back.
Fuck! Someone had jumped on him.
And it wasn’t singr but a sequence of bodies.
A minimum of three or four individuals.
The veteran squad leaders from the Fourth Company were thoroughly exhrated!
They had anticipated a captivating spectacle.
Yet, the timing of this field training had eluded them, just as the particrs had eluded them, as it was the scouts under the Police Reconnaissance Company Commander who had orchestrated the operation.
Historically, it was typically the recruits who bore the brunt. However, the script had evidently flipped this year.
And remarkably, there was a scout present who hadn’t made a break for it.
How could they not be exhrated?
Hence, upon witnessing Wang Ye’s fall, and not wanting him to escape, they hastened to the scene. Upon assessing the tableau, they erupted into boisterousughter before descending upon him.
Ye Sanshipressed Wang Ye’s form, thrusting his head forward to address the individual underneath, “Haha! Don’t move, or I’ll pummel you!”
