Chapter 996 My Flag Fell "These little brats are not bad!" "They are fighting already? | thought they would drag it out till the end..." "Tsk! The corpse picking work this twill be massive!" "That Turner family girl, she's ruthless and cunning, she has what it takes to be a commander!" Felix watched the stunning and exciting battle on the big screen, his knees sliding forward as he grabbed the instructor's thigh and shouted, "Letgo! Letgo! How can there be a battle without me? | can go without a gun, | can fight barehanded-" The instructor pushed his head away in disgust, "Shon you as a man!" He was actually tricked by girl's beauty trap! Felix cried out and yelled, "I hate it!" The students in the live broadcast room were also shaken by the atmosphere on the scene, all of them restless and spamming the chat at lightning speed.
A battle! What military academy student wouldn't be excited about a battle where they dreamt of facing their rivals in a fight to the death? In the midst of the fierce battle, Thomas walked out of his tent and took one look at the chaotic scene, instantly realizing that something was wrong.
He raised his right hand and shouted loudly, "Form up immediately! Each team counts its members and don't fall into the enemy's trap!" The surrounding area was filled with shouting, and Thomas's words were immediately drowned out.
But the people around him who heard his command immediately repeated it with an even louder voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYasmin ran around in the crowd, holding her gun and shooting accurately. She shouted, "Take out that commander!" Immediately, those who were still standing on her side held their guns and started to retreat quietly.
On the other side, however, the entire team turned around and ran towards Thomas, intending to protect their commander.
The lone soldiers guarding Thomas thought they were going to attack him, so they immediately started fighting amongst themselves.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Richard quietly raised his gun, aimed at the spot where Thomas was standing, and pulled the trigger.
The bullets were fired in rapid succession, but due to the distance and darkness, he failed to kill Thomas.
Yasmin saw that she had lost the best opportunity and remembered Selena's instructions. She made a hand gesture, and those who were still alive and retreating instantly increased their speed.
Thomas noticed the people appearing at the edge of the area and immediately gave the order, "Attack them!" As soon as he finished speaking, a dense hail of bullets suddenly rained down on him from behind. The group of people didn't hesitate to turn around and block the incoming fire from the other side. With Kevin's cover, Richard and Yasmin quickly led the remaining dozen or so people to retreat. Kevin also quickly retreated with the others, not continuing to engage in the fight, successfully leaving the chaos to the enemy.
Half an hour later, the two sides met at the agreed location without incident.
"Hahaha, that was so fun and exciting!" "I took out at least a dozen people!" "I can't even imagine the losses the other side suffered..." As the group excitedly compared how many people they had eliminated, Selena led Hattie out of the woods.
Seeing the delicate beauty once again, the students subconsciously stood up straight and looked as if they were facing the headmaster.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena approached them with a smile and asked, "Did you have fun?" The group replied in unison, "We want to play more!" Suddenly, Selena's smile disappeared, and she said in a low voice, "But my flag fell." Richard asked, "Little sister-in-law, what flag are you talking about?" Yasmin looked at him disdainfully and said, "Her flag was meant to eliminate Thomas." Richard felt like crying! The rest of the group fell silent.
Everyone knew that they had missed their chance to take advantage of the element of surprise, and the enemy would be prepared in the future, making it unlikely that they would have such a good opportunity again.
Seeing the nervous expressions on the faces of the group of teenagers, Selena chuckled and said, "Oh well, flags are meant to be captured. Alright, everyone's tired, let's find a place to rest." As soon as she laughed, everyone's nerves relaxed.
After traveling all day and experiencing a big battle, they didn't feel the exhaustion until Selena mentioned it.
They found a suitable place to pitch their tents, with Selena, Hattie, and Yasmin sleeping in the middle tent while the others scattered around. The enemy suffered heavy losses, so it was impossible for them to force their way through. They had to clean up the mess, and except for those taking turns to patrol, everyone else slept soundly.
Late at night, Selena lay in her tent with her eyes closed, while Hattie snuggled up to her and fell asleep.
While Selena was participating in the competition on the deserted island, the villa was filled with sighs and complaints. Leia couldn't shake off the worry since Selena left with the aircraft.
Ever since the young girl arrived at Selena's side, she had been following her constantly except for occasional departures. It could be said that she had spent more twith Selena than Osvaldo, her official husband. However, the group of old guys from the research institute believed that Leia's presence might affect the fairness of the competition and prevented her from accompanying Selena, which made Leia furious.
Holding her lucky cat, Leia wandered up and down the stairs all day, worrying. Suddenly, a beautiful voice cfrom outside the door, "What's happening here? Why is everyone feeling low-spirited?" As soon as Leia heard the voice, she quickly rushed out and greeted, "Madam." Lady Lauren walked in with a smile on her face, followed by a group of people carrying various delicate gift boxes. She asked while walking, "Where's my daughter-in-law? | brought her something good. Let her cout quickly..." Leia whispered, "The young madam is not here. She's gone to participate in the Union University's practical competition." Lady Lauren blinked her eyes and asked, "The Union University's practical competition?" After carefully considering what the experimental competition was all about, the beautiful lady widened her beautiful eyes and said, "Did my son take the wrong medicine? He threw such a beautiful wife into the wilderness to keep company with wild beasts?" Leia, who was already worried, burst into tears when she heard Lady Lauren's words. "The young madam is so picky about her food. She won't be able to eat the things there and will definitely starve herself... Besides, there are only two girls, Selena and Hattie, in there, and that nasty Diana will surely take advantage of them... Why did the young master agree to let the young madam participate in that competition?" This was something that not only Leia couldn't understand but also Lady Lauren.
