Chapter 686: Completely Annihilated!

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Chen Yifan and everyone else had arrived near the bottom of the hill. The map showed them that their destination was on the top of the hill.

In these few minutes, everyone was in an anxious state. They were afraid that they would step on a trap the next second. It was the most mentally exhausting ten minutes in their entire journey. However, when they reached the bottom of the hill, Chen Yifan realized that he was fooled by the people from the 250 Mecha Clan.

In the first five ambushes, he didn’t notice certain clues so he didn’t choose the best way to handle the situation. However, since he was able to bring his younger brother safely passed those ambushes, he felt that he had completed his task. He didn’t feel frustrated. Yet, now, he felt a sense of helplessness. It felt like all his thoughts had been predicted by his opponent.

“There must be some powerful individuals at the last checkpoint. I was fooled by them entirely,” Chen Yifan muttered to himself.

“Brother, we are near our destination. Why did you stop?” Chen Yi’an saw Chen Yifan stopping in his tracks and felt puzzled.

Chen Yifan gathered his spirits when he heard his younger brother’s voice and replied, “Be careful. The last ambush is probably here.” This was the last place their opponent could conduct their ambush. Chen Yifan was certain that they would be attacked on the hill.

All the recruit agreed with what Chen Yifan said. After experiencing the first five ambushes, they didn’t believe that their superiors would let them pass the test so easily.

Hence, all the recruits gathered their strengths and walked up the hill.

The road up the hill was quiet. It was so quiet, the recruits could hear their own heartbeats. They got nearer and nearer to their destination and no one attacked them yet.

All the recruits arrived on an empty field at the halfway point of the hill. A flag pole was embedded right in the middle of the empty field. The flag of the 250 Mecha Clan was attached to it.

The 250 Mecha Clan was not an official ace mecha clan so they didn’t have their own personal flag. Their flag was the 23rd division flag but the number ‘250’ was painted on the other side of the flag. The symbol that represented their mecha clan was painted next to the numbers.

Two soldiers stood below the flag. Once they saw the recruits, they looked at the time on their communicators and said something to each other with a smile. They seemed happy to see the recruits reached here on time.

The recruits realized that they had reached their final destination. They were elated. There were 10 more minutes before the appointed time. They had completed the recruit test.

Unexpectedly, there was no scary ambush on the last part of their journey. They managed to successfully pass the test easily.

All the recruits jumped around happily. Although this was just a temporary team, they went through the toughest journey together. Such an experience drew everyone together, many of them hi-fived each other. Some of them even hugged the person beside them.

Guo Rongqi felt relief too. He hugged Chen Yifan excitedly. “Chen Yifan, we pass. We pass. In the end, there is no ambush. We just scared ourselves.”

On the other hand, Chen Yifan just stared at the two people standing at the field. He was in a daze. Did they really pass? Was the last ambush just an illusion that their opponents gave them?
