Good evening, little cuties~ I need to ask for a day off tomorrow (3/15), and I will be back the day after tomorrow (3/16)~ Thank you, Mua~
-----text-----
In the middle of the two rows of relatively tall and straight trees, a salty yellow salty yellow sun rises, which is not dazzling at all. The cold air no longer hits the south. The leaves on the branches feel much greener, and the air is full of fragrance. There is a little moist natural atmosphere, and all kinds of crisp and beautiful bird songs are woven together. On the right side of the stepped path, there is a stream that shuttles between the rocks.
Everything looks so harmonious and beautiful.
If we ignore the venomous snakes that shuttle through the dense forest, the black caimans and piranhas waiting for them in the river, the ubiquitous army ants and bullet ants, and all kinds of other things that can be described only by name. For poisonous insects that make one's scalp tingle, that's really good enough.
"Click——" a fat and ugly blood-sucking leech was crushed to death by a pair of black military boots. Along the military boots, his long legs were wrapped by green camouflage military trousers adapted to jungle warfare. His head was painted with a few lines of light green camouflage oil on the left and right faces, which were as white as jade.
With a cold face, Mu Ran raised his jaw, put away his long legs, and continued to move forward.
"It's leeches again. The bugs here are endless. There are also a lot of mosquitoes. Whoever dares to show their hands will stare and swell immediately. The bag I was stared at just now is still itchy to death."
Rosalie was most afraid of mosquitoes and poisonous insects. She pouted her mouth, and then stretched out her hand to scratch the spot where she had just pulled off her camouflage jacket because of the heat, and was bitten on her neck as a result.
Mu Ran opened the way at the forefront, using a small scythe to clean up the weeds and vines blocking their way from time to time. Male Alpha Oliver followed closely behind and also helped Mu Ran clean up.
Fan Shuyi was in the middle of the team. She looked around from time to time, nervously watching for people from other teams. When she heard that Rosalie was still itching, she said distressedly: "I'll give you some medicine after you rest."
Mu Ran didn't pay much attention to what Fan Shuyi and Roselly said, he was thinking about their tasks for the past few days. When the chief instructor announced the knockout rules in the morning, he noticed that the instructor said, "It will take you at least three days to reach the finish line." Did he still think it was that far back then? But when he took a look at the map after the meeting, he found that it was impossible to reach the finish line in three days.
Fortunately, anyone who reaches the finish line of the knockout round within six days can be considered qualified. During these three to six days, they need to climb a high mountain, cross a swamp, walk a rope bridge over a large river full of black caimans, and walk into a river full of black caimans. A tear gas room specially prepared for them, and then row a rubber boat through the second river, which is a river well known to outsiders because of many incidents of piranha cannibalism...
In the meantime, they have to guard against ambushes and shootings by all teams except them, and try to find all the well-concealed supply points on the road as much as possible. In addition to the supply of food and medicine, the supply point also has the point box which is the key to victory or defeat.
However, during this long march, the instructors only gave them food and pure water for one day.
When the day's food and water are used up, they have to figure out how to find new food and filter the water themselves.
"It doesn't matter if there is less food, I can eat snake meat, but the water is so little, the instructors are really picky."
Rosalie scratched her neck a few more times, and finally felt less itchy. She went to the front and patted Mu Ran on the shoulder, trying to replace Mu Ran and let her lead the way, but Mu Ran shook his head. Instead, she patted Oliver on the shoulder and took the knife from his hand.
"We almost run out of water at night, so we have to filter the water ourselves at noon."
Although it was still morning, Mu Ran and the others walked for more than two hours in the dense forest where they had to make their way out by themselves. They were sweating profusely, so they drank a lot of water. As Rosalie said, everyone can bear a little hunger, after all, they have all undergone hunger resistance training at school. But if you are thirsty, it is really unbearable.
"Then take a break at noon and eat, and filter the water." Fan Shuyi walked last, she is a Beta, and her physical fitness is relatively good among Betas, but she is not as good as Omega Mu Ran. Great training improves physical fitness, so you can't hold back the team next time.
"I'll help you recite it for a while." Although Oliver didn't say much, he could tell that Fan Shuyi was a little tired, so he walked over and compared the rucksack on her body.
"No, thank you, I can still persist." Fan Shuyi smiled like a very friendly sister next door. She was very tired, but her smile still made people feel very comfortable.
The four continued to move forward, and each of them had a simulated smoke sensor pinned to the side behind their waists.
If it is hit by an enemy, the smoke sensor will flash red light three times, and then emit a small puff of smoke, indicating that the owner is killed, and the person who is killed will be eliminated directly, and the killer can get ten or twenty points.
Because there was only one day's food, everyone dared not eat more. They tore a small opening of the compressed biscuit, and they would break a small piece into their mouths when they were really hungry when they were fast forward.
After walking for another half an hour, Mu Ran, who was at the front, gestured to the three of them to stop and sit down for a rest. The four of them picked up a few clean stones and sat down. No one said anything, but they all agreed tacitly. Sit diagonally so that you can rest while watching each other behind you.
There was only a five-minute break, and they took out dry food to eat. The water in a large military kettle was consumed quickly. While eating, they took out handkerchiefs to wipe their sweat.
Suddenly, Rosalie's expression became both nervous and excited. She made a gesture of "find the enemy" to everyone, and pointed out the direction. stand up.
After walking for so long, this is the first time they found other teams. Mu Ran and the others were unavoidably nervous. They hid silently behind the bushes. Although Roselle didn't explain too much, they all believed her judgment. .
In this competition, except for Beta, everyone put on pheromone blocking stickers. In order to avoid being discovered by some people with a keen sense of smell, even Alpha is no exception.
And Rosalie's olfactory system is naturally more sensitive than others, and she often feels troubled by this, because when others can't smell anything, she is always the first to feel the smell of sweat on other people's bodies. If she encounters people with stinky tofu and durian-flavored pheromones, she is always the first to suffer.
There is a saying that has been handed down from the ancient earth to the present, but it seems so correct at this time. When God closes a door for you, he will open a window for you at the same time.
Rosalie's keen sense of smell played an important role in the knockout round. She was always the first to spot the enemy's whereabouts before the enemy spotted them. She thought to herself, if she had known that the effect would be so great, it would be worth letting her endure the stench.
Mu Ran was bent over, with a leaf bigger than his head covered on top of his head. His face painted with several paints was slightly sideways looking in one direction. On the path in front of them on the right, there was a team wearing red armbands pass.
That's the red team!
The red team's direction of progress is obviously different from that of going to Cooper Mountain. They crossed the flat land horizontally, and they should be preparing to go to the stream to fetch water. The four members of the red team looked relaxed and relaxed. Without hesitation, Mu Ran picked up the YIKU-796 and aimed at the smoker of Alpha who was leading the way.
"Damn it, the captain is dead!" an Omega exclaimed, immediately revealing his position. Rosalie's face flashed with excitement, and the smoker aimed at that person was also a shuttle.
When the instructor first formulated the rules, he started from the battlefield teamwork and fully considered the importance of comrades in arms. Therefore, if someone in the same team quits or "die", the students who quit or "die" will be eliminated directly. For the players who came down, for every death in their team, 300 points would be deducted from them.
Although the penalty points for "death" personnel are astonishingly high, the students who are deeply influenced by the teachers in the military school to promote the importance of cooperation have no opinion.
Two people in the same team died at once, and the remaining two members deducted 600 points at once, which basically sentenced them to death. While furious, they were so dazed by anger that they couldn't even maintain their last sanity.
Among the remaining two are an Alpha and a Beta. Alpha still remembered the position of the sniper who shot and killed their captain the first time. When he couldn't see the smoke device, he held his gun and shot in the direction of Muran.
Although their guns are specially treated, even the bullets are specially made, so they can't really hurt people. But the bullet was fired at high speed through the barrel, and it still hurts very much when it hits the person. Mu Ran didn't expect that Alpha to go crazy, but fortunately, he quickly changed positions after firing a shot, in order to avoid being discovered by the enemy.
He originally wanted to leave an enemy player for his team members to kill so that they could also earn points, but now that Alpha is so arrogant, let him "live" for a second, if he continues to go crazy, there may be an opponent They were in an unfavorable situation, so Mu Ran squatted down, poked the barrel of the gun slightly out of the leaves, and hit his smoker with one shot.
"It's over, now I'm Barbie Q too..." A puff of white smoke rose from that Alpha's body. Since he was dead, he didn't have any hope anymore. He threw the rucksack on the ground and sat down on it, with his hands Cover your face, depressed.
Three teammates were killed one after the other. This really tested the psychological endurance of the remaining teammate. Even if he can earn back the 900 points deducted in the remaining days, he still has to continue to climb mountains and mountains alone. , One person continues to deal with the enemy, one person continues to face poisonous snakes and poisonous insects... It is unbearable to think about it...
That Beta's psychological defense immediately collapsed. She wanted to avoid it, but when she stepped back, she stepped on a frog. The frog was accidentally crushed by her, and its internal organs were crushed flat and bloody.
That Beta's voice was a bit loud, Fan Shuyi quickly found her position, raised her gun, and a bullet finished her off.
After confirming that the four were killed, Mu Ran and the others retreated from the hidden bush.
No one expected that they would be killed less than three hours after departure. The members of the red team sat on the ground with their heads down, and an Omega even cried on his teammates' shoulders.
"Sorry, I killed you all." Seeing that Omega was out of breath from crying, Mu Ran bowed his head slightly to apologize.
"It's okay, we were too careless, and I, the captain, should bear a lot of responsibility." Captain Alpha looked depressed.
"In this case, then——" Mu Ran changed the subject, showing the cruelty of the knockout round. He said condescendingly: "Hand over the scorers on your body, and let me check to see if you have any points for killing others."
"No! It's really not! If we can kill others, will we be killed by you so weakly?"
In fact, Mu Ran also knew in his heart that what Captain Alpha said should be true, but to be on the safe side, he still asked them to hand over all the scorers, checked them one by one to confirm that the score showed zero, and then left with Fan Shuyi and the others.
As for the killed red team, they had no choice but to return to the base camp the same way, waiting for their inspirational scolding and the resurrection match six days later.
At noon, the four of them stopped to rest and eat. Because the water had to be filtered, the rest time was temporarily extended to fifteen minutes. Because the wilderness survival knockout competition was about to start today, Oliver was so excited that he didn't sleep well last night. He squinted under the tree for a while and told Mu Ran to call him when he had something to do or when he was done resting.
"Well, squint your eyes for a while, you will have more energy when you climb the mountain." Mu Ran nodded at him.
Fifteen minutes later, the four of Mu Ran hit the road again. It took them more than an hour to climb Mount Cooper from flat ground. During the period, I encountered two red teams, one blue team, and one yellow team, and all four teams were killed by them.
Mu Ran's marksmanship is very accurate, as long as he finds a hiding place, there is no one he can't shoot. Both Rosalie and Fan Shuyi laughed and said that he is their team's sniper.
It's funny to say that among the four teams we met in the afternoon, the yellow team was the strongest and most difficult to deal with, but they worked so hard to kill them, and Mu Ran's team only got 40 kills in the first place. integral.
Fortunately, because of the strength of the yellow team, the points earned by the yellow team for killing other teams in the morning also went to Mu Ran and the others. Mu Ran used his team's scorer to take away all the points on their scorer. When he left, the yellow team stared at him with gritted teeth.
"Mu Ran, remember it!"
"You are not as strong as others and want revenge? Let me tell you, as long as you dare to touch me, I will report you to the instructor." What Mu Ran is most afraid of is threats.
In addition to getting reward points for killing the yellow team, Mu Ran and the others can also "occupy" the food, purified water and all the points the yellow team got from the yellow team.
It is precisely because of the "encroachment" mechanism, which is similar to the rules of the game where the big fish eat the small fish, and then the big fish eats the big fish, that it can explain why the teams with some unfathomable strength in the end have everyone's points when they reach the finish line. There are thousands of points on the device.
Because the journey was so smooth, every team they encountered could be killed smoothly, and Mu Ran and the others did not expect that when the evening approached, they almost became small fish in others' mouths.
At that time, they were looking for the supply point set up by the instructor on Cooper Mountain, but because the instructor deliberately increased the difficulty of this competition, the supply point was hidden in a particularly hidden way. Mu Ran and the others were sweating profusely and their mouths were dry. Suddenly, Rosalie gestured to them, signaling them to quickly find a place to hide.
This kind of scene has been staged many times, and Mu Ran and the others are no strangers to them. They hide quietly, and their concealment skills are pulled to the peak. Except for the members of their team, they are confident that other teams will not be able to find them.
However--
Mu Ran heard a familiar and indifferent voice from above.
"Don't hide."
"You are all within range of me now."
It was Wei Fengchi's voice!
Are they dead? Mu Ran didn't want them to be killed before the first day of the mission was over, and they returned to the base camp in a daze!
