Fortunately, the Star Alliance's bases are all on small islands in the lake, and there is a huge natural barrier like Qixing Lake. As long as they don't happen to come from the point near Goddess Peak, they won't arrive so quickly. was discovered.
Here, after quickly getting rid of the steel-headed fish that broke into the restricted area, Zhang Xiaoman took the Shuguang and returned to the Land of Inheritance. There were still some things waiting for him to deal with.
…
On the other side, in a temporary camp located in the upper right corner of Qixing Lake, a group of men in combat uniforms are deploying facilities here. They are the previous American team that came here to explore, the Sea Lion Reconnaissance Team with rich experience in amphibious operations. .
In a tent, a middle-aged white man with a beard was looking at the map on the table attentively. This was their result over the past few days, including the route, topography, and even temperature, climate, A series of elements such as humidity are all available in great detail.
"Huh? The terrain here is relatively low, the air pressure is high, and the air density should increase. Why is the density of the wind so low? Who is responsible for measuring and mapping this area? How come such a low-level mistake is made?"
The man frowned and was very dissatisfied with the situation in front of him.
"Hmph, it seems that someone wants to try the hell training again."
There was a sneer on his face, and the image of a certain unlucky guy appeared in his mind.
This man is the commander in charge of this in-depth exploration operation, John Warwick.
John Warwick is a veteran special soldier. He has participated in 7 combat missions, experienced 15 different environments, and has rich experience.
It can be said that in terms of pure experience and qualifications, even elite warriors like Bei Ye and Wu Feng cannot compare with Qi.
Although John has now entered middle age, relying on his past experience, he has assumed the position of commander in the Sea Lion Scout Team, specifically responsible for newcomer training and tactical command.
Now, after receiving the latest mobilization mission from China, he led a group of newcomers to join the exploration of this mysterious island.
The task given to him at the base is to explore in depth, draw maps, and set up signal base stations, which is what he is called in the game - a pathfinder who opens the map.
Well, that's not what John himself calls it. According to him, he is the sharp knife of the entire base, always taking the lead and the first hero to charge.
In the morning, when they arrived at this lake to set up camp, someone suddenly discovered an unknown creature appearing on the lake not far away, which immediately made him very happy.
You know, one of the orders issued by the superiors is to bring back all kinds of creatures discovered.
Of course, the creatures here do not refer to the kind that can be seen everywhere on Aquamarine, but the weird monsters that often appear inexplicably across the United States recently.
As long as he takes any one of them back, it will be a big achievement for him. As for him now, he only has one chance to advance himself to the next level. By then, his pension and other things will not be increased by a large amount.
Therefore, after John discovered the existence of the monster in the lake, he sent out a combat team without hesitation in the hope that they could find and bring the monster back.
"Damn rotten sweet potatoes, you have been on a mission for so long and you haven't come back. If the army hadn't been in urgent need of manpower to explore this island, how could those mercenaries have the chance to join my army."
When John thought about the new group of newcomers who suddenly appeared in the team, he couldn't help but feel angry. He had to say that this class of newcomers was the worst class he had ever led.
Just as his thoughts were wandering, a soldier suddenly broke into the tent and said breathlessly before he could ask any questions:
"Commander, Kandor is back, right by the lake... I think you should go take a look..."
John glanced at this young man after hearing this. This guy was a soldier he brought out by himself. Unlike those mercenaries recruited temporarily, he was an outstanding seed selected from the American army, and he had absolutely reliable loyalty and will.
But, what's wrong with this guy now? Is this a panicked look that a special operations team member should have? Have you forgotten all the things I usually teach him? The most basic quality an elite warrior needs to possess is to remain calm in the face of danger!
Thinking of this, he was very unhappy. He looked at the little warrior and began to think about whether he should give this guy more training today to improve his memory.
"Stephen, pay attention to your condition."
When the young man heard this, he was stunned for a moment and then quickly came to his senses. He secretly thought that the instructor was indeed an instructor, and he could not learn this kind of calmness.
He immediately stood at attention, adjusted his tone, and said with a strong voice: "Commander! Captain Kando, who went out to perform a mission, has returned. He is now at the lake. I need you to go over and confirm the situation!"
"Yes, Not Bad."
Seeing his appearance, John nodded with satisfaction. At the same time, he was also secretly happy. Waiting for me by the lake seemed to have yielded something.
That guy Kando is indeed worthy of being a soldier I taught. Even with such a ragtag group of people, he can successfully complete the mission.
"I know, I'll be there soon. Oh, by the way, will they capture him alive this time or kill him?"
On the side, the little soldier was stunned after hearing this.
Captured alive? Killed? What is the boss talking about? Why can’t I understand it?
However, he still subconsciously corrected what John had just said.
"Commander! It's not them, it's him!"
"he?"
John was obviously a little unresponsive.
"Yes! It's 'him'! Kando came back alone and is now at the lakeside. Medical soldiers are rescuing him!"
"rescue?"
The weather-beaten old soldier subconsciously repeated his words, and then suddenly came to his senses.
"Rescue! You said he was rescuing!?"
John stood up from the chair with a bang. He could no longer maintain his composure, and a terrible thought appeared in his mind.
"Stephen, you idiot, are you kidding me!?"
The little warrior was grabbed by his collar and was a little frightened.
"No, no..."
John was furious.
"Shet! Why didn't you say such an important thing earlier!"
"me……"
"Damn it! Why are you still standing there! Take me there quickly!"
John's dream was shattered and he was so anxious that he pulled the little soldier and rushed out of the tent.
