Chapter 1283: A Major That People Revere
Ye Jian wasn’t affected by Li Jinnian’s smile. She was someone who didn’t smile much.
But to the frogmen who underwent a few months of elimination rounds that was like reaching enlightenment after going on a pilgrimage, seeing Demon King Li’s expression was even rarer than the sun rising from the west!
As night fell, the soldiers in rubber diving suits straightened their backs under Li Jinnian’s short-lived smile. Their expressions were even more serious than before.
The frogmen seniors in the team said that Demon King Li’s smile represented cruelty! It meant that everyone’s training was going to be… more and more brutal.
In the past few months, everyone had experienced Demon King Li’s “savagery”. The only people who could survive Demon King Li’s “savagery” were the sharp soldiers.
… It wasn’t easy for the new soldiers to finally feel like frogmen, but when they saw the ‘savage’ smile on Demon King Li’s face, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Three days had pa.s.sed since the last batch of eliminated soldiers left. The people who stayed behind had also started their three days of combat diving training… Demon King Li’s sudden smile made everyone who stayed behind feel a chill in their hearts. At the same time, they felt uncertain.
… Are they still going to be eliminated? Will someone be sent back today?
Even someone like Ye Jian, who never thought much about anything, couldn’t help but think about it.
She glanced at the patrol s.h.i.+p that was about a hundred meters away from the beach. She glanced at the five-star flag that was fluttering in the wind. Then, she retracted her gaze secretly…
Did someone really get eliminated? Ye Jian wondered silently.
Li Jinnian seemed to know what they were thinking. After the smile, he didn’t say anything for a long time. He glanced at the nine recruits, including Ye Jian, with a cold gaze. Then, he looked at the row of veterans who were trying their best to hold in their laughter, shoulders shaking. With a calm expression, he said slowly, “You have three days of leave…”
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Jian heard a sound that sounded like rubber leaking air. Even she… exhaled a breath of salty air.
Fortunately, they weren’t eliminated. The clenched toes in the rubber shoes loosened and the soldiers relaxed their tense backs a little.
“Everyone, leave the skerry tonight and complete the procedures for transfer.” Facing the soldiers’ reactions, Li Jinnian’s expression remained unchanged, cold and without a hint of awkwardness. “You will have some understanding of our frogmen forces during these three days, and will understand why our selection is so harsh.”
If the soldiers who stayed behind didn’t transfer their files from their original units to the Storm Commando Brigade, they wouldn’t be considered official members of the team.
During the three-day vacation, their original military unit would send a doc.u.ment over to settle the transfer procedures with the Storm Commando Brigade. Their military achievements and medals would remain on their files, everything else was cleared.
The new soldiers weren’t elated by the sudden holiday. From their expressions, one could tell that something was amiss. They felt that it was impossible to give them a vacation so quickly.
They felt that… Demon King Li wouldn’t give them a holiday so easily!
The soldiers’ hearts were in a mess. They didn’t feel that the sudden holiday was real.
