Chapter 42: The Sunken Island

After sailing at sea for nearly six or seven hours, Lin Rui and the others arrived at the small island. The island is really small and looks very deserted. Most of the area can be said to be devoid of grass, except for sand and sand. All you can see is an earthy yellow. Only in areas close to the middle of the island can you see a patch of green.

Because the middle of the island is a piece of high ground. It is a tidal island, and most of the time, it is flooded by the tide. Only the high ground in the middle is the only place where the water is exposed. So only there are plants growing. This desolate place has only a barely usable dock. The stone steps can still be vaguely identified as traces of the colonial period.

From the outside, anyone would think that this is a desert island in the truest sense of the word. But walking to the highlands in the middle of the island is a completely different story. It is shaded by thick vegetation and vines and shrubs are abundant.

The abandoned British fortress is long gone, and only the ruined fort built on a high place can still see a little shadow of the past. The fort was also rusty and entangled in vines. Like the colonial era that is long gone, it has long since become history. And on the site of the original British fortress, new buildings have long been built. Solid reinforced concrete, replacing the original stone building.

The scale of the above-ground buildings of this base is indeed not large, but the underground space is several times that of the upper part. It is said that the dungeon below was originally a British colonial period. Later, after Morningstar took over the island from a local warlord, it was renovated and expanded several times. It is now a fairly complete military base.

There is also a complete energy supply system. The island is windy and is powered by several small wind turbines, as well as spare diesel units.

Communications consist of several sets of array antennas, which are placed high on the island. All antennas are painted camouflage, blending in with the island's bushes.

Fernández strode to the base entrance, greeted the base guards, and then turned around and yelled, "Everyone come here." You have half an hour to unload supplies and tidy up your barracks. Come and assemble in half an hour, do you understand?"

Lin Rui has long been accustomed to his way of speaking, this person has always relied on roaring to speak. Even if it's the simplest words, he'll be able to yell at you with all his might.

The group entered the base, unloaded all the supplies, and cleared the barracks.

At this time, Fernández yelled outside again, "Come out for me, assemble, what are you sons of bitches doing? I only said for half an hour, don't you understand?"

Qin Fen smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, "This guy doesn't know that the tendon is wrong." Like a ghost, he refuses to give people a chance to breathe. ”

"Don't think I don't know, when I was an instructor, you scumbags secretly called me Zhao Crazy behind my back. Zhao Jianfei sneered, "Now you should know what a madman looks like, right?"

Qin Fen didn't dare to answer, and walked in front with his head bored. He had an instinctive fear of Zhao Jianfei.

The team was gathered outside the base, and Fernandez put his hands behind his back and said loudly, "The place where you are now is the sea training base of Morningstar Company. You are now a C-level employee of Morningstar. You are here for one purpose, to receive training in amphibious warfare. There are no laws, no human rights. What I say is the law, and I am the God here. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" everyone yelled at him. Because they knew that this was the only way to satisfy the sergeant major.

"Good. Now that you're here, I have to mention the traditions of this base. Fernandez said coldly, "The sea can make real men, and not every group of people who come here for training will become iron-clad Han soldiers, and they will become synonymous with tenacity from physical to mental." And before that, according to the traditions of this base, you must accomplish one thing. ”

Fernandez paced back and forth a few steps, and said coldly, "Jiang'an, Yelena, out of the ranks." ”

Both Shogishi and Yelena took a step forward and stood straight.

Only then did Fernandez turn to the others, "Except for the two of them, the rest of you must go and soak in the sea." He was not allowed to go ashore for forty-eight hours, with no food or drinking water. All I can give you is a life jacket. Do you understand?"

"Report, I don't understand. Qin Fen said a little nervously.

"You're a pig again, but you've at least learned to wait until I'm done before you ask questions. What don't you understand?" Fernandez snapped.

"I just want to say, let's soak in the sea like this?" Qin Fen's expression was a little strange, "Don't do anything more?

Fernandez said cruelly, "Of course, if you want, I can give you a full armament and a dozen kilograms of ammunition on your back." Then let you hold the gun in both hands and float in the sea. But if the barrel gets a little bit of seawater, I'll give you a little extra training. Do you want that, soldier?"

"Not wanting. Qin Fen lowered his head and simply confessed. He knew that it was absolutely no good to work against this guy, so instead of holding his neck and being stunned, it was better to bow his head and admit it.

"Then shut up for me!" Fernandez snapped.

"I have a problem too. Shogishi slowly raised his hand.

Fernandez frowned, "What's your problem?"

"Why am I being left out?" said the shore slowly.

"Are you kidding, sick man, the pressure of the sea will put a strain on your heart, do you want to hang up in the water on the first day because of a heart attack?" said Fernandez coldly, "You are a valuable asset of the company, I can't let you die here." ”

"Fernandez, I think you should understand that the purpose of our training here is to work together as a team. So I can't leave my teammates, until I'm dead. Even if I die on the battlefield, they will return with my corpse, this is the tradition and belief of mercenaries. Also, stop calling me sick seedling. Shogan slowly turned around and walked into the original queue.

Fernandez's eyes flickered, and he suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect you to be a tough guy, okay!

"Most men who like tough guys can't be tough themselves, so they blindly worship the so-called tough guys. Yelena suddenly said coldly.

Her words almost made Lin Rui laugh out loud.

Fernandez's face was extremely cold, and he slowly turned to look at Yelena and said, "What's wrong with you?"
