Chapter 435: Chapter 435: The Other Party Has a Gun
Tang Ren was an instructor of the Long Ren Unit, and he had always felt that he was not a lucky person, but this time, he felt that the heavens were truly looking after him.
The military competition had started less than half a day ago, and he had already found an equipment package, which could not be described as anything less than fortunate.
A line of twenty people quickly ran towards the equipment package.
Meanwhile, at a distance, a group of figures gradually became visible.
Tang Ren raised his hand and said softly, “Stop!”
The rest, looking ahead, also noticed another unit not far away.
“Damn it,” Tang Ren spat fiercely and cursed, “Can’t the heavens let me be completely lucky for once? At a time like this, they arrange for another unit to show up, shit!”
Just like the Long Ren Unit, after the Canglang Unit discovered the traces of the equipment package, the whole team hurried over.
However, just as they saw the equipment package and were happily preparing to go forward and take it, they also discovered that there was another unit eyeing it from not too far away.
Ye Chu narrowed his eyes and called out loudly, “Which unit is that over there? Announce yourselves!”
Hearing the shout, Tang Ren replied, “So it’s Ye Chu of Canglang, long time no see, to the point where you can’t even recognize me.”
This familiar voice instantly allowed Ye Chu to identify the other party’s identity.
“It’s Tang Ren of the Long Ren Unit.” Ye Chu’s heart sank ever so slightly. If the other side were a trash unit like Long Chi, Ye Chu would definitely launch an immediate attack, completely defeat them, and then conveniently take the equipment package.
But the Long Ren Unit’s strength was comparable to theirs, and if it really came down to a hard fight, without the equipment package, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Chu said, “How about we split the equipment package, half for each of us?”
Tang Ren interrupted him, “The equipment package was discovered by us first.”
“Hmph!” Ye Chu said, “Tang Ren, don’t be unreasonable. If we really come to blows, it’s still an unknown who will lose. If you don’t want to be eliminated early, just take a few rifles and leave.”
After considering for a few seconds, Tang Ren felt that indeed this might be the best option.
The Long Ren and Canglang Units were of equal strength, and clashing now would be to the advantage of the other teams. Consequently, Tang Ren nodded and said, “Let’s each send one person to open the equipment package and divide the weapons equally.”
Both sides agreed to do so, hence each sent one person to the equipment package.
In the equipment package, there were ten rifles, two sniper rifles, four grenades, four smoke bombs, two sets of ropes…
All of the items came in pairs, making it convenient to divide.
After ten minutes, the members sent by both sides came back, carrying a bunch of guns and ammunition. Then, without any extra words, they turned around and left.
Both sides understood that colliding now was not a wise move.
…
That night, Jin Gang and the others were all cultivating the Soaring Dragon Step, while Li Xiaoyao entered the simulated combat space to focus on his cultivation.
Li Xiaoyao had now reached the first stage of the Spirit Cultivation Realm, and in the simulated combat space, he could easily defeat Ouyang Gu among those of the same cultivation level.
A quiet night passed.
The next day, dawn broke.
The group was still focused on cultivating the Soaring Dragon Step, as if they had cut off contact with the outside world.
Li Xiaoyao, looking at his team who were earnestly practicing, nodded in satisfaction.
“Huh?” Li Xiaoyao let out a soft exclamation, directing his gaze toward the right, where there lay an endless desert void of human life. However, with his spirit detection, Li Xiaoyao perceived that about five kilometers to the right, there was a troop.
This troop’s overall strength was a level higher than the Dragon Soul unit they had encountered the night before, but in terms of actual combat capability, in Li Xiaoyao’s view, they still weren’t up to par.
What surprised Li Xiaoyao, though, was that this troop was actually equipped with firearms.
“They must have gotten their hands on an armament package,” was the only plausible explanation.
Glancing back at his companions still engrossed in their cultivation, Li Xiaoyao didn’t wake them up.
After all, there was still a considerable distance between them, and if the enemy were to rush over, it would probably take several hours.
Half an hour later, Li Xiaoyao woke them up and said, “Rest here for two hours, and then we will set off to hunt.”
Although the rest of the group wanted to continue practicing the Soaring Dragon Step, they didn’t dare disobey Li Xiaoyao’s command. They obediently took the sleeping bags that Li Xiaoyao tossed from his Storage Ring and rested on the shadowy side of a cactus.
As time ticked by, and seeing that the group was getting progressively closer, Li Xiaoyao woke everyone up.
Two hours might not be much, but everyone had been in deep sleep, which was as good as five to six hours. At this moment, their spirits were in excellent shape, quite full of energy.
“Let’s move out,” Li Xiaoyao said as he packed up the sleeping bags and took the initiative to head in the direction of the approaching troop.
When they were about eight hundred meters away, Mu Tou’s eyes narrowed sharply as he looked into the distance and announced, “Target spotted!”
Jin Gang cursed, “Mu Tou, your eyesight is damn sharp, seeing them from so far away when we can’t see a thing.”
Another person laughed, “I bet the guy spent his childhood peeping at widows bathing.”
“Come on, is that any way to speak?” Mu Tou rolled his eyes and squinted into the distance. Suddenly his pupils contracted and he exclaimed, “Damn, this is not going to be fun!”
“What’s the matter? What happened? Spit it out, don’t keep us in suspense,” the rest urged.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mu Tou looked at Li Xiaoyao and said, “Boss, the other side has guns!”
“Guns?” Jin Gang was taken aback, then cursed, “Mu Tou, are you blind? How could they have guns? Firearms are forbidden in the military competition… wait a second, damn!”
It seemed Jin Gang had realized something, saying, “They couldn’t have found an armament package, could they?”
With a bitter smile, Mu Tou responded, “It seems that way now.”
Upon hearing this, everyone involuntarily fell silent.
Seeing this scene, Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly.
“Are you afraid?” Li Xiaoyao asked. “Do you feel that just because the enemy has guns, you can’t win? If you’re afraid of their firearms, then drop out of the military competition now. Continuing would be meaningless.”
Stirred by Li Xiaoyao’s words, their faces flushed with agitation, they declared one after another, “We’re not afraid. It’s just a gun, what’s so great about that?”
“Exactly, who’s afraid of them? With a blade in hand, no one is my match.”
“Boss, don’t underestimate us. It doesn’t matter if they have an armament package, even if we were up against a tank, we wouldn’t be scared,” they asserted.
“Hmm.” Li Xiaoyao nodded in satisfaction and said, “For this battle, you’ll distribute the tactics among yourselves. I’ll take on their instructor, and you handle the rest. Any problems?”
“No problem!”
Having been scolded by Li Xiaoyao thus, everyone’s mind cleared up quite a bit. They immediately began to allocate tactics. They had the upper hand at the moment; they had discovered the enemy, but the enemy had not yet spotted them,
If they played their cards right, they could catch the enemy off guard and potentially achieve another glorious victory with no losses on their side and a complete annihilation of the enemy.
