Chapter 1295: Head-on Attack
The muddy water was so quiet that she could hear the sound of her flippers moving up and down. Listening to the soft sound of water not far away, Ye Jian’s first instinct was that Li Jinnian was chasing her.
As she swam to the surface of the sea, Ye Jian took out the frogman dagger. The dagger was a special weapon that could prevent rust and magnetic fields. Even if it encountered the electromagnetic signal of the underwater explosive device, it wouldn’t cause an explosion.
Holding a dagger, Ye Jian lured the eel around the boat. First, she wanted to buy time for Big Eel. Second, she wanted to lure all the underwater dangers onto herself.
Li Jinnian attacked head-on. He forced Ye Jian to the underwater obstacle course.
There were ropes hidden among the seaweed. If they were not careful, they would be entangled by the seaweed or their equipment.
“Is Demon King crazy? He chased Ye Jian to the underwater obstacle course!” Big Eel, who was swimming towards the boat, looked at the disappearing figure in the water with surprise in his eyes. “Does he really want to spread the reputation of the Demon King to the entire military?”
All the water ghosts knew how difficult the underwater obstacle course was. There were waste materials, fishing nets, ropes, and seaweed that were cultivated. These can all be easily entangled with equipment like the frogmen’s respirator!
Even the veterans would be extra careful when entering.
Big Eel was worried for Ye Jian. Big Whale, who was observing on the surveillance screen, was worried for Ye Jian too. He secretly glanced at the face of the navy commander from the corner of his eyes. When he looked over, Big Whale was frightened by the cold look on the commander’s face. His heart dropped.
Oh no! The commander seemed a little angry.
“How many water ghosts are there in the base now?” The navy commander looked serious.
Li Jinnian was too bold! He actually brought Ye Jian to an underwater obstacle that soldiers needed at least eight months of basic training before going through! Did he not want his future anymore?!
Once something happened, the army would lose a general and the navy would lose a general too! In the end, it would harm the country and their efforts would be wasted!
Big Whale immediately replied, “Eleven of my team’s codenamed water ghosts are in the base! Including sixteen combat frogmen and reconnaissance frogmen! A total of twenty-seven soldiers!”
“Send four combat frogmen to watch over the situation. If any problem arises, rescue them immediately!” The navy commander immediately gave the order. As the commander, he had the responsibility to ensure the safety of all the soldiers and to prevent any possible dangers.
“Yes!” Big Whale immediately executed the order. He was afraid that something would happen!
Although Major General Yang didn’t know much about underwater combat, when he saw Ye Jian’s calm and unhurried swimming posture, he vaguely felt that Ye Jian seemed to be swimming forward on purpose.
“There’s no need for that now. Let’s observe her first.” He stopped Big Whale from leaving. “Ye Jian never does anything rash. Just now, she took the navigation board and swam towards the east. Based on my understanding of her, she has a motive for swimming towards the east.”
This meant that she wasn’t forced by Li Jinnian to the east.
Major General Yang had known Ye Jian for three years. He also paid attention to her training. Also, Ye Jian had carried out a few missions in the military. He felt at ease with her constancy.
Hence, Major General Yang thought that she did it on purpose.
Big Whale received a nod from the navy commander before returning. He said, “Although Ye Jian’s training time is short, the water ghosts on the skerry bring her to complete many training sessions.”
“We have taught her how to use the survival knife to release herself from seaweed and fishing nets. It’s just not as complicated as it is now.”
