Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 336 Taking First Place on the Devil's Path

The 800-meter obstacle course was just an appetizer; the real show the hunter school had prepared was yet to come.

After two hours of strenuous training, the trainees were exhausted, and it was only a little past nine in the morning, meaning the day's training had only just begun.

The students, who were starving from not having eaten breakfast, still hadn't received theirs.

They were then taken to a new training ground.

This is a meticulously designed training ground, filled with various mud pits, burnt remains, and oddly shaped obstacles.

It looks like a simulated war front, with harsh environment and full of danger.

"This is the road of devils. You must run from the starting point to the end. Along the way, you will face real guns and bullets, and you will be shot dead if you are not careful."

Enemy targets will randomly appear on the road, and you must eliminate them immediately. The more enemies you eliminate, the higher your final score will be.

To traverse this devil's path, you must possess extraordinary courage and skill. Do you have the courage?

The head instructor, Crocodile, explained the rules and points to note in a simple and clear manner, and then used a reverse psychology tactic at the end.

"Yes, sir."

The trainees stood at attention and spoke in unison.

We're all genuine men, and none of us want to admit we're inferior to others.

"First team, move out immediately."

Without wasting any words, the head instructor Crocodile pointed to the starting point and gave the order.

"First group, follow me."

Jackie Chan, as the team leader, gave the order and led Xu Sanduo and the others to break away from the formation and run to the starting point—a zipline on a high platform.

A rope and a pulley together form a zipline, creating a zipline traversing device.

Jackie Chan slung his rifle over his back, grabbed the rope with both hands, swung forward, and zipped along the zipline into the Devil's Road.

In conjunction with the "performance," bombs exploded on the left and right sides beneath Jackie Chan.

The rumbling sounds were incessant, and the scene was quite frightening.

The landing point of the zipline is a water pit, about 1.6 meters high. The first challenge after landing is to wade through the water to get to the shore.

For Jackie Chan, who is of a relatively short stature, it's not too difficult; he can basically walk over while standing.

The rest of the group is also fine.

Xu Sanduo was the only one who was in trouble. The height difference made it impossible for him to wade through the water. As soon as he landed, the water would flood his nose, and he had to swim all the way to shore.

The first obstacle on the shore is a ladder, followed by low-lying barbed wire underwater.

As Jackie Chan ran over, various explosions occurred on both sides, with dirt and gravel flying everywhere, some even hitting him.

Although it won't cause injury, it will hurt a lot.

There were also teaching assistants carrying real rifles, firing at the trainees around them, with bullets whizzing overhead and around them.

The scene was truly terrifying, even more dangerous than a real battlefield.

Because Jackie Chan and the other trainees had no idea how good the instructors' marksmanship was, they had no way of predicting whether they would shoot them.

The intense fear brought about by this unknown made Jackie Chan feel extremely uneasy.

The pressure generated by this invisible fear is exactly what Chief Instructor Crocodile wants to achieve; he expects the trainees to perform under high pressure.

Jackie Chan was the first to set off as the team leader, running ahead and leading the team.

Following behind was the first student who had jumped the gun, secretly pleased with himself.

He thought that with Jackie Chan paving the way and acting as cannon fodder, he could take advantage of the situation and get the highest score in the group, and then thoroughly humiliate the two Chinese guys.

If you could seize the opportunity to become the team leader, that would be an even greater blessing.

pity.

The idea was wonderful, but the result made him vomit blood.

Although Jackie Chan, who is running ahead, has to clear the way, facing the completely unknown and treacherous road will be much more difficult, far less easy than those running behind.

When enemies will appear along the way, and where they will appear, is completely unknown. Even if you are running ahead, it is the hardest time for them to react.

But Jackie Chan has the ability, so nothing is a problem.

Jackie Chan led the way through one obstacle after another until they passed through a burning iron thorn mud pit, where the first target appeared on both sides of the obstacle ahead.

Without a second thought, Jackie Chan immediately raised his gun and aimed.

"Snap!"

Raise your hand and fire a shot, a precise headshot.

"Holy shit."

The student running behind was stunned. He had tried to take advantage of the situation but failed. He could only put down the gun he had raised and continue running forward.

After taking down his first target, Jackie Chan dashed forward like the wind.

A second target appeared on the left.

"The target is already past you, you can't hit it now."

As soon as the first student saw the target appear, he realized that Jackie Chan couldn't possibly have a 180-degree field of vision, so he immediately shot to try and grab the point.

But the gun was only halfway raised...

Jackie Chan, who was running ahead, fired again and hit the target accurately once more.

"This is outrageous!"

The first student grumbled and cursed, clearly resentful.

He didn't believe that the big Jackie Chan had such good marksmanship, and forcibly misinterpreted Jackie Chan's skill as just good luck, which made his competitive spirit even stronger.

Emotions affect mindset, and mindset affects technique.

The number one, whose two targets were "snatched" by Jackie Chan, became emotionally unstable and unable to concentrate due to jealousy and resentment.

While crossing the S-shaped water balance bridge, my foot slipped and I fell into a puddle.

Falling into the water meant having to go back and start all over again. The first trainee, who was originally in second place, could only watch helplessly as Xu Sanduo and the others overtook him.

Seeing that he had been beaten by the shorty again, the first student angrily slammed his hands into the water.

If it could bite...

Given the anger that Trainee Number One is feeling at this moment, he would definitely rush up and bite Xu Sanduo.

I deliberately tried to get second place, hoping to get a bargain, and I used all sorts of tricks, but I didn't get any advantage at all. Instead, I ended up in last place. This is really karma.

The crocodile, which had been observing through binoculars in the distance, nodded repeatedly upon seeing Jackie Chan's performance.

Satisfied, he said to the teaching assistant next to him, "Write this down: number six in the first group, the big guy from China, he's first in the group."

"Yes, sir."

The teaching assistant immediately grabbed a notebook and started making a plan.

Jackie Chan's first team successfully passed the test. The team leader, who had been complaining that Xu Sanduo was dragging the team down, ended up being the one dragging the team down.

It's truly heartbreaking!

The first group was led by the excellent group leader Jackie Chan. Although the overall speed was slowed down by the first student, there were no problems during the process.

The so-called "devil's road" seems to be just like that; it only sounds scary but isn't actually that terrifying.

But when the second group started training, the horror of the devil's road was revealed.

The second group of five slid down into the water without any major problems, but when they went to the target practice area, the group immediately fell into disarray.

In order to get a chance to shoot at the target, some trainees came up with a clever shortcut.

He was guided to climb up the half-wall, stood on the roof, and slid down the other side while hugging a tree. As a result, he was shot while climbing the wall.

Fortunately, the kid was lucky; the bullet only hit his thigh.

If you hit him on the head, he'll be dead on the spot.

However, after the medical team entered the site, rescued the person, and sent them to the infirmary for emergency treatment, the training on the "Devil's Road" began again.

Even though some trainees were almost killed, it did not affect the training that followed.

This is the true essence of the word "devil"!

Having witnessed the ruthlessness of crocodiles and the fact that bullets can really kill, the trainees were completely immersed in the experience.

We dare not be negligent in the slightest again.
