“Hoo hoo~”
In the sky, the sound of helicopter rotors approached.
Wang Ye glanced back at the noise but chose to continue forward after just a moment.
There wasn’t much to see, even though he hadn’t triggered the signal guns for their Black Cat trio and the Jiangnan trio.
But everyone had cameras.
In the event of casualties, there was really no need to waste signal flares.
You only needed those in situations where you were engaged in close combat with the enemy or when you wanted to withdraw voluntarily.
The jungle was still quite dark at the moment, but Wang Ye, equipped with night vision goggles, wasn’t too concerned.
In fact, thanks to thermal imaging, Wang Ye could now discover more fascinating aspects of the world in the darkness.
About a dozen meters to the left, there was a snake in a tree… and in the treetops, there was a small bird hiding.
It was just the leaves of a single tree, not the dense type, so it was quite evident in thermal imaging.
Actually, Wang Ye was surprised that this thing could detect a snake.
In theory, snakes are cold-blooded animals, but now they could indeed be seen, and quite clearly at that.
Of course, having discovered this function, Wang Ye’s pace of walking became even faster.
In fact, what night-time jungle fears most is this thing.
Stepping on it with a boot, the combat boots were snake-proof, but the camouflage pants weren’t, so one had to be very careful.
But now there was thermal imaging.
To be honest, if it weren’t for the survival rules prohibiting making fires, Wang Ye wouldn’t mind having a couple of spicy snake dishes.
Because there were indeed many of them.
In less than an hour, Wang Ye had already spotted three.
However, since making fires was not allowed now and he had to eat them raw, Wang Ye wasn’t interested in dealing with them.
Even if there were cameras on him and he had to eat something instead of constantly pilfering the supplies in his personal space, Wang Ye preferred to gnaw on some edible plants.
As he made his way back, Wang Ye had no idea that the place he had just fought in had now been taken over by others.
And, just ten minutes later or so, the second wave arrived.
Black Fox, with a special forces soldier, was the second batch.
“Captain, judging by the traces here, there should have been a battle, most likely Black Cat team. And judging by the traces, the Black Cat team should have had the upper hand initially, but they might have been ambushed later.”
Black Fox had just arrived, and the first batch of special forces soldiers who had arrived here began reporting the information they had gathered from searching the vicinity.
Actually, they were technically breaking the rules at the moment.
As the two teams converged, the number of members in each squad reached five, exceeding the personnel limit set for their special forces exercise.
However, there were no personnel from Division A here, and they were likely to split up again later.
At the moment, the first group of special forces soldiers who had arrived were talking, while Black Fox was looking up at the bundle strap hanging from a tree.
Wang Ye was pressed for time and didn’t even think about going back up the tree to retrieve the bundle strap.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, there was an explosion not far away.
Black Fox instantly turned to look.
The next second, his already grim face turned even grimmer.
Because he saw that one of the special forces soldiers from his own squad who had followed him now had smoke rising from his head.
The handiwork of Wang Ye and Jiangnan.
Although Wang Ye had previously destroyed a trap and retrieved a grenade, he hadn’t used the rest of them.
Now that Wang Ye had left and Jiangnan’s team had been taken away, the special forces soldiers who had come with Black Fox were not as cautious when inspecting the area, as someone had already searched it thoroughly ahead of them.
Or, you could say he was just unlucky. In such a vast jungle, he happened to step on one of the few traps.
“Cap… Captain!”
The special forces soldier who stepped on the landmine had turned pale at this moment, looking in their direction, he could barely speak.
At this moment, he wanted to cry.
He was incredibly unlucky.
“What the hell are you doing?” Black Fox hissed through clenched teeth.
He was furious. Could this also count as a reduction in personnel?
But being angry wouldn’t change anything. Looking at the soldier, he took a deep breath and then growled softly to the others nearby, “Be careful, there must still be landmines here!”
In fact, they didn’t need his reminder.
With one unfortunate victim already, the rest of the team immediately became extremely vigilant.
They bent down to examine the ground carefully, and even when they moved, their steps were exceptionally slow.
They were searching for traces of the enemy’s possible departure route.
“Captain, over here!”
At this moment, someone called out.
It wasn’t that hard to find.
Although Wang Ye was careful, he was still a person weighing over a hundred pounds with nearly two hundred pounds of equipment.
Without deliberately erasing his tracks step by step, with the careful search of professional special forces soldiers, he would definitely be discovered.
“It should be one person, considering the situation over there earlier, the Black Cat team should have dealt with them almost!” The special forces soldier who had just reported to Black Fox before arrived at one of the traces where Wang Ye had left and shared his observation.
Black Fox also carefully examined it and then spoke directly through the communicator, “Don’t come in my direction. Head to the vicinity of coordinates xxx to xxx and search there. You must find this person for me!”
The coordinates he mentioned were based on the straight line formed by the traces of Wang Ye’s departure.
“Roger!”
“Roger!”
“You scoundrels, you’re quite crafty, still able to maintain full communication, what kind of team operation is this?” The Chief of Staff in the exercise department gritted his teeth as he looked at Captain Xue nearby.
Captain Xue looked back, “This is our capability.. Can’t we use it? Anyway, they are also following the rules, and the maximum team size during operations is definitely limited to three!”
