Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

"Bai Long brought this upon himself. He tried to provoke Lone Wolf with a trick, hoping that Lone Wolf would be too proud to shoot and would have no choice but to go out and fight him one-on-one. He didn't expect that Lone Wolf would not fall for that trick at all and would kill him with one shot."

He calmly explained with a smile, clearly very approving of Lone Wolf's actions.

This is indeed the best solution!

Bai Long's personal strength is undeniable, and his fighting skills must be extremely strong.

As a female soldier, Lone Wolf chose to become a sniper to avoid her inherent disadvantages and prevent close combat with men on the battlefield.

If Lone Wolf were to fight White Dragon one-on-one in a fit of anger, with her fighting skills that even Yan Poyue couldn't beat, she wouldn't last two minutes against White Dragon.

Therefore, using a gun to end the fight was the best course of action for Lone Wolf.

"Bai Long shouldn't be like this. He was too arrogant. Now he's been eliminated like this. According to the rules of the competition, even if he's very strong, I'm afraid..."

Lu Tu didn't finish his sentence; his expression conveyed only deep sorrow and indignation.

but.

As the captain who released this big fish, Qin Feng was shocked by what he saw, but he still had strong doubts.

He placed the cups on the table and muttered, "It shouldn't be over so soon. This isn't Bai Long's strength; it's definitely not over yet."

"Why isn't it over yet? It's smoking, you can see it all clearly," Xu Sanduo said.

"It may not be over yet."

As the highest-ranking and most powerful figure present, Jackie Chan's words immediately drew everyone's attention.

"Pay close attention to the location of the red smoke."

Jackie Chan specifically reminded everyone, and then said, "To prevent the sound tubes from being accidentally triggered, the smoke canisters are placed in the athletes' tactical backpacks, and the smoke will be very intense."

The smoke emanating from the white dragon is indeed red, but it is positioned towards the lower part of the body and is rather thin.

I suspect there's something fishy going on, but I can't figure out exactly what it is right now.

"I suggest we move the drone closer. We'll see what this kid's up to when Lone Wolf comes out of the house."

Jackie Chan's analysis was spot on, and Cheng Cai and the others all thought it made a lot of sense, and the more they looked at it, the more something seemed off.

Given that Bai Long is the strongest player and a veteran with practical experience, it's unlikely that he would make such a mistake that even a novice wouldn't make.

Therefore, everyone tended to listen to Jackie Chan's deduction and focused their attention on the White Dragon.

At this moment, Bai Long was shrouded in red smoke. It would take some time for Lone Wolf to come down after firing his gun. To solve the mystery, they would have to wait for the two of them to reunite.

Gunshots rang out again from the warehouse, which had been quiet for a while.

"Bang!"

Squad Leader Xiao fired the shot.

Gao Zhun, who was facing away from Squad Leader Xiao, was shot in the back by Squad Leader Xiao at a distance of less than two meters, and thick red smoke billowed from the smoke canister.

Zhou Zijian, who was standing to the side, was stunned, while Gao Zhun turned around with wide eyes.

Just seconds before the shots were fired, Zhou Zijian and Gao Zhun came over to discuss with Squad Leader Xiao, deciding to go out together to eliminate either Yan Poyue or Xiao Yunjie.

If they can just kill one of them, they can become reserve special forces members.

However, the plan that the three had discussed turned into a disaster when Gao Zhun was about to flank Xiao from the left, with his back to Xiao, but Xiao killed him from behind.

He was killed by his own people who had come all the way here.

Gao Zhun couldn't believe it at all, and his whole body was filled with the flames of anger, and his eyes quickly became bloodshot.

Even Zhou Zijian went from surprise to disbelief, and finally to anger.

I'm furious at Squad Leader Xiao's selfishness!

"Are you crazy? Why? Why did you hit me?" Gao Zhun asked angrily.

"I'm sorry, brother."

Squad Leader Xiao didn't think he had done anything wrong. He got up, patted Gao Zhuan on the shoulder, completely ignoring his anger, and calmly walked out.

He shouted at the top of his lungs, "It's all over! There are only six people left now, come out!"

"Brother, we're on the same team, comrades-in-arms, we've fought side by side all this way, why did you hit me? Why did you hit me?"

Gao Zhun, unwilling to give up, caught up and grabbed Squad Leader Xiao's sleeve, questioning him again.

"The arena is like a battlefield, and the competition is brutal. You've already worked very hard to get this far. Your skills are too weak. Go back and practice more before coming back. That will actually be better for you. Brother, don't think too much about it."

Squad Leader Xiao, acting like an experienced veteran, gave Gao Zhun a lecture on PUA, but Lian Sheng still had a big smile on his face.

He even took the initiative to say to Xiao Yunjie, who came out of the bunker with a look of astonishment on his face, "I have offended you a lot before. Now that everyone has been selected, we will be comrades-in-arms from now on. Please don't take it too seriously."

Xiao Yunjie already had a grudge against Squad Leader Xiao, and couldn't stand Squad Leader Xiao's arrogant and domineering attitude.

Now, witnessing how Squad Leader Xiao, in order to advance, personally eliminated his comrades who had faced life and death alongside him, I feel even more contempt for him.

He immediately raised his hand to stop him, saying, "Come on, with your character, we can't be your comrades-in-arms. I don't want to be shot in the back by you."

"What do you mean? You're being unreasonable?"

Sergeant Xiao felt like he'd been given the cold shoulder. His smile vanished, and he retorted with a stern face, "You've come this far, haven't you eliminated anyone else before?"

"Then we shouldn't shoot our own comrades either, that's fucking outrageous." Before Xiao Yunjie could even speak, Zhou Zijian couldn't help but stand up and start criticizing.

"Can't you be a little smarter?"

Squad Leader Xiao was furious after being scolded. He turned around, pointed at Zhou Zijian, and roared, "What is our purpose? To join the Cheetah Special Forces, not to actually kill people."

Moreover, we were just a temporary group. The second before I fired, I had already disbanded the group. In my eyes, you were all opponents, not comrades-in-arms.

Squad Leader Xiao's explanation was very far-fetched, but there was indeed no violation of the rules.

Zhou Zijian and Xiao Yunjie were rebuked and couldn't find a reason to retaliate. Their anger grew even stronger, and they were so angry that they couldn't speak. They couldn't believe that there were such shameless people.

Gao Zhun, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, could no longer control his emotions.

Completely abandoning any respect or fear he had for Squad Leader Xiao, he angrily grabbed Xiao's collar and roared, "What... what are you saying? We're from the same regiment, and we're even from the same hometown! Is this some kind of temporary team?"

Squad Leader Xiao felt apologetic towards Gao Zhun, but not much. He suppressed his anger and explained, "Brother, listen to me carefully. No one can stay in one unit for life. It's an ironclad barracks with ever-changing soldiers, have you forgotten that?"

"Are you even speaking human language? How could you possibly understand this?" Zhou Zijian angrily accused.

"I understand you want to climb up, but are you in such a hurry? Couldn't you have waited a little longer and let me rush up and fight them? Even if I lose and get eliminated, I can accept that, but why were you the one who fired the shot?"

Gao Zhun was so angry that his eyes turned red and watery, and he was ready to cry at any moment.

"Don't you know your own capabilities? You would have been killed anyway if you had gone. I just wanted to save some time and sped things up a bit."

Squad Leader Xiao spoke in a very righteous manner, but his heart was full of filthy thoughts.

The reason he shot and killed Gao Zhun in advance was because he was worried that if he fought Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie, he might also be eliminated.

Yan Poyue has all sorts of ingenious ideas; he has firsthand experience with them.

and so……

Squad Leader Xiao didn't want to gamble; he just wanted to be 100% certain.

The way to ensure a 100% success rate in the implosion assault is to take out a teammate yourself, thus instantly ending the exercise assessment.

As for what the people who were killed might think, Squad Leader Xiao didn't care at all.

That's how selfish I am!

Furthermore, selfish people never think they are wrong.

At this moment, the command center's attention was entirely focused on Bai Long outside, and Xiao's selfish behavior did not attract their attention.

but.

The people in the command center didn't notice, and made no comments about Squad Leader Xiao's selfishness.

Yan Poyue, who was also in the warehouse, was a tough soldier with a strong sense of justice who couldn't stand injustice and had a very strong personality.

Having witnessed Squad Leader Xiao attack his teammates from behind, his anger had reached the point of bursting out of his skull.

Seeing that Squad Leader Xiao showed no remorse whatsoever when facing criticism from the crowd, and even seemed smug, as if he had done the right thing.

Unable to contain himself any longer, Yan Poyue stormed over with a dark expression, stood before Squad Leader Xiao, and coldly said, "Do it yourself? Or should I do it?"

"What do you mean?"

Sensing that Yan Poyue's visit was ill-intentioned, Squad Leader Xiao's expression also turned cold.

"Smoke canister," Yan Poyue uttered three words.

"It's all over, there are only six people left, what are you doing? Do you still want to eliminate me? Heh." Squad Leader Xiao sneered.

"For me, it's not over yet."

Yan Poyue could no longer contain his anger, and as soon as he finished speaking, he kicked out.

Squad Leader Xiao was caught off guard and couldn't dodge. He was kicked in the stomach, and the force sent him flying, crashing into the roller.

"Are you serious? Looks like you need to be taught a lesson."

Squad Leader Xiao was furious at being sneakily kicked away, so he got up and charged at Yan Poyue again.

The two then began a fierce hand-to-hand combat!

Inside, a fierce hand-to-hand combat broke out, while outside, on the battlefield of masters under the spotlight, the appearance of Lone Wolf brought the situation to a climax.

With a bag in his left hand and a gun in his right, the lone wolf walked slowly toward the white dragon with the air of a victor.

Now only six people remain. In Lone Wolf's view, the exercise is over and there is no need to hide anymore, so he came out as White Dragon wished.

As Lone Wolf approached White Dragon step by step, Jackie Chan and his group in the command center watched intently, as did White Dragon.

The lone wolf walked slowly to the front of the white dragon, stopping when it was about three meters away and placing what it was holding on the ground.

He removed his helmet and mask in front of Bailong and deliberately retorted in a mocking tone, "I'm not a man."

The underlying message is that I'm not a real man, so I'm not affected by your provocations, I don't need to talk about morality, and it's perfectly fine for me to shoot you.

"Wow, I didn't expect it to be a girl."

Bai Long lazily got up from the flower bed steps, his face still bearing a calm smile.

"You wanted to see me? Now you can see me to your heart's content. And remember this: next year when I'm a selection examiner, remember to avoid me when you see me."

Lone Wolf had been scolded before, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't angry.

In retaliation for the various taunts Bai Long had previously made, Lone Wolf now retaliates as the victor, subtly implying that Bai Long can only go back and prepare to "take the exam again next year."

After saying that, she deliberately adopted a haughty attitude and turned to leave.

They seemed to be at odds and were being long-winded!

"May I ask your name?" Bai Long still had a smile on his face, showing absolutely no emotion from being eliminated.

"Guo Xiaoxiao".

The lone wolf continued walking, speaking his name with his back turned.

"You don't look like your name at all."

Bai Long implied that Lone Wolf was too aloof, and seeing that Lone Wolf didn't stop, he continued, "Aren't you even a little curious about where this smoke is coming from?"

As soon as Bai Long said that, Guo Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks.

"There was definitely a problem."

Everyone in the command center also perked up their ears, secretly marveling at Jackie Chan's keen observation skills.

Unable to resist his curiosity, and sensing something was amiss, Lone Wolf paused for two seconds before turning to look at White Dragon.

Having successfully piqued Lone Wolf's curiosity, White Dragon turned around and pulled something out of his back pocket.

The outer shell was a used smoke grenade, one end of which had been pried open with a knife and had something put inside; it was now charred black.

Lone Wolf vaguely sensed that something was wrong and realized that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.

His brows furrowed involuntarily!

Bai Long's lips curled upwards as he walked toward Lone Wolf, saying, "I found some nitrate soil by the latrine, added a little bit of chemical agent, and along with the smoke bomb's components, I made a red smoke canister myself."

"You saw it just now, right? How about it? Doesn't it look a lot like the cigarette packs we were issued?"

Bai Long has already said all this; if Lone Wolf still doesn't realize she's been deceived, then she's not just a simple naive girl.

The lone wolf, already proud and aloof, could not tolerate being made a fool of.

He immediately clenched his fists and charged forward, fueled by the fury of being teased, and engaged in close combat with the white dragon, who was a full head taller than him.

The command center saw the two start fighting, understood the reason, and had a heated discussion.

"It turns out he made a smoke bomb himself, using a fake one to deceive Lone Wolf, luring her down and preventing her from using her sniper skills, forcing her into close combat. Bai Long played that trick brilliantly."

After understanding the ins and outs of the incident, Lu Tu immediately praised Bai Long highly.

"He makes it sound so simple, but changing the color of a smoke grenade is actually not that easy. He has the potential to be a demolition expert," Cheng Cai praised.

"He's broken the rules, he's already broken the rules."

Seeing Lone Wolf get tricked and fall into a disadvantageous position, Calmly felt even worse than if he had been tricked himself. He loudly accused Lone Wolf, "I believe in Lone Wolf's marksmanship. There's no way he couldn't have missed Bai Long. Even if he used a fake smoke grenade, a real smoke grenade would still trigger, and he would still be eliminated."

The reason Bai Long's smoke bomb didn't trigger is because he cut the connection wire without permission, which is a violation of the rules and should result in his dismissal.
