Chapter 18: The Final Examination (I)

In the dense primeval deep forest, a clearing with a radius of hundreds of meters has been artificially carved out.

In the middle of the clearing, there is a base enclosed by a wall more than three meters high. The top of the wall was coiled with barbed wire, and there was only one exit from the front gate, which was firmly sealed by a steel gate. There was a guardhouse on each side behind the door, and two armed soldiers stood on each side. It's like a heavily guarded military base.

Inside the base are four buildings, between which are guarded by two teams of guards, and two jeeps with machine guns are parked in the central clearing. On the balcony of the building, on the commanding heights, you can also see soldiers with guns watching. Throughout the base, about 100 soldiers are strictly guarding the work.

On the basement level of one of the buildings is a dimly lit prison separated by iron bars, with a staircase for the only entrance and a guard's room. Three soldiers played cards in the room to pass the time, and every ten minutes a soldier went down to the prison floor to make rounds.

The strange thing is that there is only one prisoner in the entire prison area, and he is kept in the deepest room. Not only that, but the person was tightly tied to a chair with ropes, blindfolded, duct tape to seal his mouth, and his hands handcuffed from behind.

With such a tight restraint, even the soldiers in charge of guarding him felt that the patrol every ten minutes was a bit redundant, and it would be hellish to be able to escape after doing this.

After completing his round, the soldier returned to the guardhouse. The moment the soldier disappeared at the top of the stairs, the prisoner, who had been motionless like a piece of wood, suddenly moved.

The prisoner's right arm struggled regularly, and after more than ten seconds, an inconspicuous paper clip fell from his cuff and was caught by him with his hand. With a twist of both hands, the paper clip was bent into a curved wire, and then the prisoner tactile found the keyhole of the handcuffs, and the paper clip wire was inserted into it and pryed—half a minute later, with a click, the handcuffs of the left hand opened.

The prisoner then used serrated teeth on the edges of the handcuffs to cut the ropes that bound him. Five minutes later, the third rope was sawn off, the rope on the prisoner's body was loosened to the point where it could break free, and the prisoner's hands were freed. At this point, there were four minutes left before the next guard patrol.

However, the door to the prison is tightly locked with an electronic combination lock, which requires a specific magnetic card to open. How do the prisoners get out?

After the prisoner pulled out his hands, he did not hesitate to pinch the wire used to open the handcuffs before, cut a small hole in the vein on the back of his palm, smeared the blood on his face and chest clothes, and then wrapped one end of the rope around his wrist to temporarily stop the bleeding. After doing all this, he quickly disguised the rope in front of him as if it was still tied to him, and returned to his static state.

Guarding the room, three soldiers played cards and talked about the task of guarding the prisoners.

"Squad leader, what do you say is the origin of that guy below? He even asked all of our three companies to go out and cooperate with one person in the exercise. A soldier said.

"yes, I also think this exercise is weird. Isn't it a bit of a fuss to guard a prisoner with a hundred men? The other soldier couldn't help but chimed in.

"Who knows. Maybe it's the military's secret weapon, training super agents or something. In short, the above attaches great importance to this exercise, and we cannot afford to take it lightly and lose the face of the fifth battalion. The squad leader played a card, looked at his watch and said, "Well, it's time." Wang Bo, it's up to you next. ”

“ok。 Don't peek at my cards, I'll be back later. The soldier shouted, picked up his gun and walked to the staircase.

Soldier Wang Bo walked leisurely to the prison where important prisoners were kept, and saw from a distance the figure still tied to a chair in the dim cell, still the same motionless old appearance.

Hey? That's not right.

Wang Bo suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and when he looked closely, the prisoner's head was unnaturally crooked, his face and chest were covered with blood, and he looked like he was dead-he couldn't help but tighten his heart, grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Squad leader, there is a situation!" Something happened to the target, I'm checking the situation, come on! ”

After speaking, Wang Bo hurriedly opened the electronic lock and rushed in to check if the prisoner was "dead".

Their mission is to guard the prisoner and prevent him from escaping, as well as to prevent outsiders from infiltrating to kill or take away their targets.

Wang Bo cautiously approached the prisoner with a gun, and tried to check the wound on the opponent's body with his right hand, but at this moment, the prisoner suddenly burst up like a cheetah and pounced on him.

Damn it! It's a trap!

Wang Bo wanted to pull the trigger, but the trigger was tightly stuck by one finger and could not be pulled. Immediately afterward, Wang Bo only felt a slight pain in his neck, and then the siren on his body made a low beeping sound, and a red light lit up - meaning that he had lost his combat effectiveness and was out of the exercise.

Wang Bo was extremely annoyed in his heart, so he could only lie down honestly and let the prisoner take his equipment. He couldn't figure out how the prisoner got out. How did you get so much "blood" to disguise yourself as having an accident?

Wang Bo only knew that in order to get out, the other party actually harmed himself to obtain blood. Such extraordinary means are not something that ordinary people can come up with.

"Oh no, Wang Bo is out! Zhou Chao, send an alarm and notify others to enter the second phase of the exercise! The squad leader rushed down the stairs and saw the scene of the prisoner subduing Wang Bo from a distance, his heart sank, and he shouted.

Zhou Chao slowed down a step and shouted into the walkie-talkie, informing the rest of the base. Two seconds later, a loud siren echoed through the base.

In the second stage of the exercise, to prevent the prisoners from escaping the base, it is possible to shoot the target!

The squad leader and Zhou Chao raised their guns and rushed towards the prisoners, aiming at the target at all times and moving to shoot!

The ferocious firepower suppressed the prisoner unwilling to take the lead, relying on the prison bars and the "corpse" Wang Bo to resist the attack, occasionally firing a shot to counterattack.

"Zhou Chao, I'll cover, you go around and solve the target." Seeing that the other party was hiding in the cage and not coming out, the squad leader whispered to Zhou Chao. But as he spoke, a cloud of red powder burst violently on his forehead.

"Squad leader!" Zhou Chao screamed, and was about to fight back in surprise, when a second paint bullet came one after another and exploded on his forehead.

Point shot, instant kill!

The fleeting flaw was caught, and in the blink of an eye, two well-trained fighters were "killed".

"Peat! I was just about to tell you to hide ・・・・・・," the squad leader grumbled depressedly. According to the rules, those who died in battle cannot speak. But at this moment, the conversation between the two "dead people" does not matter.

"555, no way, the enemy is too fast." Zhou Chao wanted to cry without tears. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the squad leader suddenly killed, and he was decisively named by the enemy at that moment, and he didn't see the other party make a move at all.

At this time, the prisoner rushed out, and as he walked, he quickly removed the blindfold and sealing tape, and sealed the back of his bleeding left hand with adhesive tape. Only then did the two warriors realize that their enemy was a young man in his early twenties.

"I'm sorry, I'm offended, I'm going to take your clothes." The prisoner smiled slightly, stripped off his coat with the wry smile of the squad leader, and transformed into a base soldier. He put his clothes on the squad leader, who moved to the prison and impersonated himself.

"The second and third shifts pay attention and carry out the task of breaking into the prison area. The fourth and fifth classes blocked the exit of the building・・・・・・" walkie-talkie, the commander's order sounded, and the prisoners learned of the other party's arrangement, showed a thoughtful look, and quickly formulated a breakthrough plan.

The guardhouse, which was connected by the staircase at the only exit, was quickly occupied by the second and third squads, who had been ordered to arrive.

"The second shift rushes in first, and the third shift guards the staircase and stands by." The platoon commander led two squads of men and ordered decisively.

"Second class, follow me!" After receiving the order, the leader of the second squad shouted in a low voice, fired several tear gas canisters at the bottom of the stairs, waited for more than ten seconds, put on a gas mask, and commanded eight subordinates to break into the prison in alternate cover.

The soldiers rushed to the prison area with the scramble in their hands for every possible enemy corner. At this moment, the smoke area is shrouded in a thick tear gas mist, and the underground lights are dim, so it is difficult to see.

The second squad noticed a figure around the corner, and shot without hesitation, and the figure fell straight down. Only then did the soldiers realize that the man was one of their own soldiers who had been "killed".

The corpse fell, and the rope tied to the body was suddenly straightened, and the rifle hidden in the hidden corner was instantly driven to open fire, and the two soldiers could not react before they were shot, and the indicator light of "killed" turned red.

Damn, it's a trap! The second squad leader reacted quickly, hiding behind the cement pillar and ordering: "Hide!" Confirm enemy location! ”

The soldiers cautiously probed and observed, and after a few seconds, they reported the situation.

Five meters, seven meters, and nine meters in front of each had a soldier's corpse lying on the ground. With the addition of two new people, there were five people lying crookedly in the passage.

"Three bodies were found, what appeared to be a squad of three people who were in charge of guarding the prisoners. No prisoners were found. The main scout whispered.

"Look for suspicious hiding spots."

"There are three suspicious hiding points in the ・・・・・・, a cement pillar at ten o'clock, a haystack at twelve o'clock, and a cement pillar at one o'clock. Confirm. ”

"Work in pairs, throw grenades first and then assault. Ready to ・・・・・・ put! ”

There were three muffled sounds, and three balls of red paint spread, and this kind of drill grenade can emit electrical signals, and those that are within the absolute kill range will be judged to be out by the induction system installed on the body. Of course, if it is splashed by paint, it is also considered out, because the paint represents shrapnel.

However, the soldiers of the second squad could not be sure whether the opponent had been hit, so they could only treat it according to actual combat, move and shoot after the grenade exploded, and approach the target in the suppression of fire.

"Watch your step, don't touch those corpses, watch out for the mechanism!" The second squad leader drank low, as the so-called eating a temporary chief and a wise man, commanded the team members to advance carefully.

Just as everyone carefully walked through the three lying corpses and focused on the three hiding points, the corpse lying face down in the middle behind everyone shook its wrist slightly, and the grenade that had been hidden in the palm rolled to the center of the assault team with a soft sound, knocking down a soldier's foot and stopping.

The soldier sensed the strange sensation, looked down, was surprised, and was about to open his mouth to warn, but the grenade exploded with a thud and exploded in the center of the group!

In an instant, six people died with their life indicators turning red, and the remaining two rolled on the ground, avoiding the sputter of shrapnel, and got up to fight back. But just as he was bumping into another grenade, it rolled between the two of them and exploded instantly.

The last two soldiers, killed!

The delay in the explosion of the second grenade was so accurate that the two saw that the grenade was detonated in one go, and in a moment's time, the two had just finished raising their guns and preparing to counterattack・・・・・・ everything happened too suddenly, there was no time to react, and the two soldiers could only lie down with their eyes open.

Under the depressed gaze of the group dead of the second squad, the enemy, who had been mistaken for corpses, exploded, and quickly searched for useful weapons from them

Several pieces of dough-like earthy yellow lumps were recovered from a soldier, and the prisoner's face was delighted: there it is, C-4!

He turned his gaze to the vent pipe exit, which was structurally weak.
