Chapter 1294: Confrontation
“For the time being, you’re building an army of amphibious frogmen. Old Dong, the task on my shoulders isn’t any lighter than yours.”
Through this sentence, the navy commander seemed to have guessed something. A look of surprise flashed across his face and he turned serious. “A sea, land, and air force? I see! I understand!”
No wonder Ye Jian had to be sent over. Her future prospect and the direction of the military had already been decided!
“You have a better vision than me. She has already been training for five years. Coupled with the four-year military school, such a young Special Forces soldier with nine years of training experience. Old Yang, you’re really far-sighted. I feel ashamed.”
There were only four people in the surveillance room. One was a technical lieutenant and the other was Big Whale. The navy commander wouldn’t tell anyone what he said and this conversation wouldn’t leak any information.
Li Jinnian seemed to have noticed that his ‘prey’ had disappeared into the distance. He turned around slowly and faced the screen. His expression couldn’t be seen clearly because he was wearing a mask. However, from the way he moved his legs, one could tell that he was in a good mood.
The sea current rushed past the mask in front of her eyes. A few unknown fishes swam along with the current leisurely. Ye Jian held onto the reef with her hands and squinted slightly. She swam in the opposite direction of the current.
However, the inflatable boat had a deeper draft than a dinghy. There was a group of skerries nearby. If it was her, she would definitely hide the boat behind them.
Since Li Jinnian had his eyes on her, the task of installing the magnetic mine could only be left to her partner, Big Eel.
Under the guidance of the navigation board, Ye Jian and Big Eel met up under the water twenty minutes later. The two of them kept their heads facing up and communicated using hand signals.
Ye Jian pointed at the surface of the water and crossed her arms. “I’m targeted. Exchange missions.”
“Okay!” Big Eel understood what she meant and nodded. It seemed like Demon King Li wanted to fight with Ye Jian underwater so he had to cooperate.
After the mission exchange, the two of them split up again.
Ye Jian slowly moved up from the deep water level. When she was about three meters away from the water level, she took the opportunity to get closer to the boat. This was the first time she was acting alone underwater. No matter how bold she was, she didn’t dare to be as carefree as she was on land. She remembered the important points of underwater activities and didn’t make any mistakes.
Not far away, Li Jinnian floated to the surface of the water. He smiled and said to Big Shark on the boat, “She’s here. I’ll fight with her underwater.”
“Don’t be too harsh. She was able to avoid you just now because she reacted quickly. We need to see her true combat capabilities underwater. Don’t treat her like a seasoned soldier.” Big Shark didn’t persuade Li Jinnian to give up. He just reminded him again and again, “Ye Jian can handle it. You must be careful! Don’t let anything happen to her.”
Li Jinnian understood what was going on even without Big Shark’s reminder. He made an ‘OK’ gesture and put on his breathing mask again. Then, he slowly descended and carried out the underwater interception.
The entire training was centered around Ye Jian. Li Jinnian wanted to test Ye Jian’s underwater combat skills. Big Shark wanted to see if she could successfully clear the dinghies that prevented them from landing on the beach. The navy commander and the major general of the army wanted to see if her training results were up to standard.
The muddy seawater stirred. Danger suddenly appeared. Ye Jian saw a figure approaching silently like an electric eel. She turned around and swam one meter towards the surface of the sea. She lowered the water pressure on her before facing Li Jinnian.
