The reason why he wasnāt optimistic was very simple. Azure Bird had already displayed extraordinary strength during the previous training. It wasnāt because she happened to have such good results that he wanted to challenge her but because she really had such strength.
āAfter today, the sharpshooter will change.ā The male soldier took out the magazine from his rifle and counted the bullets inside again. He confirmed that he had used up all the bullets he had.
There was still the competition with the fixed targets and the human body targets. He needed to calm down.
As he busied himself, the male soldier said, āHer results just now werenāt from just luck. If she was just lucky, then it means weāre even weaker.
āShe does have the ability⦠to surpass me.ā
His voice was a little low. The clicking sound of the magazine being reloaded made No. 2ās heart drop for some reason.
After interacting with each other for a few months, they more or less understood each other. At this moment, he could tell that his comrade was not in a good mood, but he couldnāt tell why. It was a complicated mood, and he didnāt know how to enlighten him.
āBefore I came, my regimental commander told me not to think as if Iām still in the old military unit when Iām in the new place. In the old military unit, Iām an officer with some authority. But in a new place, itās still uncertain what my position will be. Itās best to be honest and think of myself as a new recruit.
āI forgot what my regimental commander said. I didnāt treat myself as a new recruit. I treated myself as a hero who the captain was making things difficult for. Now that I think about it, what kind of hero am I? So what if I have military merits? The veterans of the Xueyu unit⦠Look at the injuries on their bodies. Many of them were caused by shrapnel. Compared to them, our military merits are nothing.
āIn the past, I was muddle-headed and walked into a dead end. I wanted to compete with them and let them know that since we were chosen from the grassroots, we werenāt cowards. Weāre all brave warriors who can go into battle to kill enemies with guns. The more I thought about it, the more unconvinced
I became. Now that I think about it, I thought too highly of myself.ā
Recruit No. 2, who was driving, sniffed. Seeing that they were about to meet the car in front, he hurriedly said, āLetās talk later. Itās hard to talk now.ā
Azure Birdās arrival was like a sharp bayonet that suddenly cut through their pride. It made them realize that the strength they were so proud of might really be⦠nothing in the other partyās eyes.
They couldnāt even defeat a military school student. How could they defeat a veteran? What right did they have to say those words?
āBrother, thereās nothing to talk about. We just need to recognize the truth
now. Really, Iām already reflecting on myself and recognizing the truth.ā
No. 1 smiled. The invisible pressure brought about by the appearance of the female soldier, Azure Bird, was enough for them to recognize the truth.
āThe captain didnāt show his face much. The moment he appeared, he brought Azure Bird back. I even guessed that the reason why he hasnāt shown his face all this while was because he couldnāt be bothered to deal with us one by one. He didnāt want the veterans to waste time on us either. He brought over a
military school student whoās younger than us to let us have a taste of her strength. What else can we say? Nothing.ā
The car in front was getting closer and closer. The male soldier didnāt say anything else. He hugged his rifle and stared ahead firmly..
