"Stop, everyone. These people are all ours. It's just training, all fake," Chen Shanming said, rubbing his forehead in exasperation.
He felt that if he continued to conceal the truth, the consequences would be dire.
Upon hearing Chen Shanming's words, Qin Feng smiled inwardly. They had finally told the truth. It seemed they only cried out when they were hurt.
Unlike Qin Feng, who had expected this, the others were completely bewildered by Chen Shanming's statement.
What was going on?
"What? Fake? You're messing with us?" Wang Yanbing said, looking utterly speechless.
He Chenguang also said, somewhat at a loss, "Isn't this a bit too much?"
"Damn, Captain, why didn't you say so earlier? I just punched one of our comrades in the stomach. Is he okay?" Li Erniu was stunned and didn't know what to do.
While He Chenguang and the others were still in a daze, a black-clothed man on the other side suddenly spoke, "Everyone, leave!"
As the order was given, the other black-clothed men quickly helped each other and retreated from the scene.
However, the bloodstains left on the ground where they had stood indicated how fierce the fight had been.
With the departure of the black-clothed men, Song Kaifei, who had fallen into the pit, finally had an opportunity to speak. He immediately shouted, "Good heavens, hurry up and get me out of here."
The pit had been dug rather deep by the black-clothed men, making it impossible for Song Kaifei and Xu Tianlong at the bottom to get out during the fight. Now that the black-clothed men were gone, they finally had a chance for someone to pull them out.
After Xu Tianlong and Song Kaifei were pulled up, Li Erniu looked at Chen Shanming and asked worriedly, "Boss, what do we do now?"
"What do you mean, what do we do? Continue! Did you not think about the consequences when you were hitting them?" Chen Shanming felt utterly defeated. The bloodstains on the ground told him that these brats had shown no mercy when they fought, and he didn't have the immediate authority to stop the training.
What else could be done? Other than continuing, what else was there to do? They were all such nuisances!
"Yes!" Qin Feng, Li Erniu, He Chenguang, and the others heard the order and continued to carry out their mission cautiously.
Meanwhile, the black-clothed men, who had just been beaten by Qin Feng and his group, returned to Octopus's presence.
"Boss, many of us are seriously injured," a black-clothed man with relatively minor injuries reported immediately.
Octopus was so enraged he nearly spewed smoke. He immediately ordered, "Useless trash, hurry to the hospital for treatment!"
"Yes!"
In a short while, all the black-clothed men who had fought with Qin Feng and his group had left.
Only Octopus remained standing there, holding a gun and lost in thought.
...
Not long after, Qin Feng and his group arrived at Octopus's territory and immediately launched an attack with remarkable efficiency. Song Kaifei, filled with indignation, continuously threw smoke bombs and flashbangs.
Bang, bang, bang...
As the smoke bombs and flashbangs dispersed, large amounts of white smoke rose, obscuring vision.
At this moment, the snipers on Octopus's side lost their targets and became useless.
"Let's go!" Qin Feng shouted loudly. The others, as if injected with adrenaline, immediately ran towards Octopus's position.
Gunfire erupted at this moment, and the two sides engaged in an intense battle.
"Everyone, beware of the snipers. Try your best to take out the enemy snipers," Qin Feng said, assessing the situation and issuing the next command.
"Understood!"
While the battle raged outside, a room inside was also engaged in an equally fierce struggle.
Tang Xinyi and Octopus were in a high-rise room, with two guards stationed outside the door.
"You've already lost. You should admit that you were defeated by these rookies," Tang Xinyi said, looking at Octopus with some resentment.
"How is that possible? The outcome has not yet been decided," Octopus said, his expression clearly displeased. "So many of my subordinates were injured by them. I must get revenge for them."
Hearing this, Tang Xinyi kindly warned, "Don't continue this. You won't be able to bear the consequences. If the higher-ups find out, you'll definitely be disciplined."
"Discipline? What am I afraid of?" Octopus clearly wasn't listening and retorted, "The higher-ups sent me here to train these brats, and they went and injured so many of my men. How can I just let this go? Do you expect me, Octopus, to just take this lying down?"
"You're not being rational. You've been blinded by anger."
With that said, Tang Xinyi immediately threw a punch at Octopus, her movements incredibly agile. Her gaze was as sharp as an eagle's.
Octopus glanced dismissively at Tang Xinyi, then turned and dodged her attack.
Tang Xinyi, her attack evaded, showed no intention of stopping. She continued to attack Octopus. Wherever Octopus dodged, she struck. She refused to believe she couldn't hit him, nor did she believe Octopus could endure without retaliating.
Octopus and Tang Xinyi did not call for a stop, and neither intended to cease fighting. One attacked, the other dodged. As for the others, they just watched, neither offering to help nor daring to intervene.
After all, both individuals fighting were of higher rank than them, and they had no authority to say anything.
Meanwhile, outside, Qin Feng and his group were still confronting Octopus's subordinates. It was evident that against Qin Feng's group, Octopus's subordinates were no match and posed little threat.
After all, Qin Feng, He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, Li Erniu, Xu Tianlong, and Song Kaifei had been selected through rigorous vetting. They couldn't be too weak, nor could they be easily defeated.
Octopus's men were visibly decreasing in number and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Qin Feng then quietly ascended to a higher position to scout. A minute later, Qin Feng cautiously kicked open the door to the room where Tang Xinyi was located. He immediately spotted two figures standing by the door, like sentinels.
The two sentinels, upon seeing Qin Feng appear, immediately prepared to open fire. Qin Feng, with swift reflexes, flashed in front of them and, before they could react, twisted both their arms backward, holding them firmly and rendering them immobile.
Crack! Crack!
Two crisp sounds of dislocated joints echoed, and the guns in the sentinels' hands fell. Their faces immediately contorted in pain.
Li Erniu, following behind Qin Feng, saw this and immediately pointed his gun at the two sentinels, saying smugly, "Don't resist any further. You're already eliminated."
After speaking, Li Erniu's face lit up with joy.
It truly was great to follow Big Brother; it meant a small barbecue three meals a day!
