Chapter 314 - 94: Found the First Hostage
Gu Xiaoxi found that their missions were the same. But to complete the mission, they couldn’t form teams or alliances.
Each person held six handkerchiefs which had codes and names on them. If a military dog sniffed the wrong scent and rescued the wrong hostage, it would be judged invalid and points would be deducted as well.
The total score was one hundred points, a mistake cost ten points, and those who failed would also be eliminated.
Having learned from the experience of taking a wrong path during the last drill, Gu Xiaoxi took out the map this time, ready to start from scratch, embarking on a long trek for a thorough search.
"The map’s starting point is here, and the endpoint is here. It covers a huge area. Our maps indicate that the four mandatory routes are through a canyon, a river crossing, a swamp, and a mountain range. Let’s do this, tomorrow morning at this time, we’ll meet at the mouth of the canyon. During this period, everyone will split up to search for hostages and explosives," Gu Xiaoxi said with a serious expression.
"If any of us are eliminated, we won’t be able to make it tomorrow. Is it okay to meet up like this?" Yun Xiao asked worriedly.
"Everyone should be careful of ambushers along the way. Coming from a special forces background, each one of us is highly skilled. Avoid them if possible. If someone hasn’t reached the meeting point by the assembly time, they will be considered eliminated. We will not wait for them," Gu Xiaoxi said. The reason for meeting at the mouth of the canyon was that it was a route everyone had to take, certainly full of danger, but with many people, even if it came to a fight, the odds of winning were greater.
"Okay!"
"Alright, agreed!"
"Then let’s split up and go!"
