When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 253 A Level B Punishment! Head straight to Qiangtang!

"I was wondering why that guy sent me here to find someone named Xu Ge, and even said that I got a good deal this time."

Wan Xiaofei's face immediately turned red. He glared at Xu Ge and said, "So you've been waiting here all this time?"

Xu Ge was taken aback. What did you mean by "I got off easy"?

He knew Thor well; the other person's statement was certainly not because he didn't need to travel a long distance before the selection.

Could it be that Lao Wang deliberately chose the assessment content in a direction that was advantageous to him in order to pass the selection smoothly?
It's unlikely to be that bad. Despite his usual carefree attitude, Lao Wang would never do anything reckless in this kind of situation.

"say!"

Seeing that Xu Ge remained silent, Wan Xiaofei became even more furious.

Xu Ge: "What did I say?"

"Just tell me straight, who are you to?"

In Wan Xiaofei's view, it was absurd for a private first class to participate in the selection of the Hidden Wolves.

What kind of unit is Hidden Wolf? It represents the pinnacle of China's special forces capabilities!
Even if a private first class enlists in the fall, he has only been in the military for a year and a half at most.

What can you learn in a year and a half? I'm afraid you won't even have finished learning the basic subjects.
"You know, with such strong connections, why don't you just go to another unit for a promotion? Why do you have to come here? Is this a place for a rich kid like you?"

Wan Xiaofei had already imagined a whole drama unfolding before his eyes: "I guess you heard about this organization from somewhere and wanted to check it out out of curiosity, right? Logically, this has nothing to do with me, but do you know we're both participating in the selection process together? You'll drag me down..."

Xu Ge couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the other person: "Dude, you've misunderstood. I'm fine. I'm a member of the Wolf Brigade!"

"I don't care where you're from... Huh? What did you say?" Wan Xiaofei was stunned. "You're from the Wolf Brigade?"

"Correct!"

"You got a top-three finish in this year's 76th Group Army's competition? No, your competition was reported, but I didn't see your name."

Xu Ge: "I withdrew from the competition midway."

Wan Xiaofei: "Damn it! You still say you're not a nepotism hire? Where did you get your selection spot?"

Xu Ge was speechless: "The reason I withdrew from the competition was that Wolf Head personally invited me to participate in this selection. He didn't want me to continue competing."

Wan Xiaofei, who is fluent in multiple languages, believes he can understand every word Xu Ge says, but why does it sound like nonsensical when they are put together?
"Could you translate what you just said again?" Wan Xiaofei asked, his face full of questions. "Why did Wolf Head personally invite you?"

"Because if I participated in the grand competition, I would break the entire army's record, and the commander wouldn't let me participate in the selection again... The path to becoming a full battalion commander has already been paved for me, so I voluntarily withdrew from the competition in order to join the Hidden Wolf!"

Xu Ge didn't want to get entangled with Wan Xiaofei on this issue any further, so he was forced to put on a show.

This time, not only Wan Xiaofei, but also Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen were shocked.

They only just learned the real reason for Xu Ge's withdrawal from the competition.

Is it because he's too outstanding that he's being fought over by high-ranking officials?!

Wan Xiaofei was deeply shocked, as he understood the intricacies of the situation far better than Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen.

If what this private first class is saying is true, then it means that the other party is a genius that even the Hidden Wolves would fight over!
hiss!
As expected, none of those who come to Hidden Wolves are simple characters!
Breaking the entire military record? Which record?

Seeing that Wan Xiaofei was about to ask something, Xu Ge spoke first: "Let me remind you, given their way of doing things, the assessment might have already started the moment you arrived! We'd better not waste our time!"

"Really? That person told me you have a satellite phone and that I should contact them after I find you," Wan Xiaofei said.

"Damn it! I knew they were going to pull something!" Xu Ge cursed immediately.

"What's wrong?" Wan Xiaofei asked, puzzled.

Xu Ge: "I've never seen a satellite phone!"

Wan Xiaofei: ? ? ?

"You seem to know them very well?"

"I've met these people a few times, and they don't like to play by the rules."

Wan Xiaofei's face turned ugly: "But that person clearly said you have a satellite phone!"

“I know, but they didn’t give me the satellite phone directly. They must have hidden it in the military station.”

Xu Ge remained calm. He had some understanding of the Hidden Wolves' modus operandi. He turned to Zhou Qiang and asked,

"Stationmaster, while I was away from the station recently, has anyone come here?"

Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen thought about it carefully for a while, then shook their heads: "Apart from the supply deliverymen and the military postal couriers, no one else has come!"

"Let's go check out the supply depot!" Xu Ge said, leading the way into the canteen.

The supply depot was filled with bags of rice and flour, while various cooking oils and seasonings were displayed on the shelves. There was a large freezer against the wall.

After Xu Ge entered, he looked around and then sniffed.

There was a faint, familiar scent in the air.

The supply depot wasn't large; you could see it all at a glance. Seeing that the other areas didn't seem like places to hide anything, Xu Ge went straight over and opened the freezer.

Beneath bags of vegetables and fresh meat, two hiking backpacks were discreetly placed.

"Huh? When were these two bags put in?" Cao Dawen was surprised. "I personally checked them when the supplies were delivered!"

"Don't worry about these things!"

Xu Ge pulled out two hiking backpacks. "Station Chief, Squad Leader Cao, my assessment might be starting soon..."

Zhou Qiang immediately said, "It's alright, you go ahead and do your thing, don't worry about anything else! Xiao Cao, let's make dinner."

"Okay!" Cao Dawen immediately turned around and left.

"Thank you, stationmaster!"

Xu Ge gave Wan Xiaofei a wink and led him directly into the dormitory.

Wan Xiaofei closed the door immediately after entering: "Quickly, check what's in the bag?"

Xu Ge was very familiar with these two backpacks; one was his own, and the other belonged to Li Dongshui. Both were purchased by his nanny when he went on a business trip to the Tash Ancient Road.

“This bag is yours.” Xu Ge casually handed Li Dongshui’s bag to Wan Xiaofei. “Hurry up and see if you can find a satellite phone. All the equipment inside is yours to use.”

Wan Xiaofei's expression was a bit strange as he looked at the Mysterious Farm bag in Xu Ge's hand: "I didn't realize you had such good taste, knowing to choose an expensive bag."

Xu Ge didn't bother to explain to him and directly opened the bag to check. He found that the bag contained the same set of outdoor gear as before, but with two additional wristbands. They were very similar to the ones issued during the last Sirius selection, but smaller in size.

A moment later, Wan Xiaofei pulled a satellite phone out of his bag: "Found it! There's only one number in the contacts!"

Xu Ge: "Call now, put it on speakerphone!"

"it is good!"

Wan Xiaofei started dialing. After a few rings, the call was connected, and the sound of howling wind immediately came through the receiver.

"Hey, cousin, you found the phone so quickly? Looks like Wan Xiaofei has already met up with you!" Thor's voice was as lazy as ever.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Wan Xiaofei glared at Xu Ge and whispered, "You still say you're not a nepotism candidate? Damn it, the examiner is actually your cousin!"

Xu Ge curled his lip: "This guy called me 'Dad' over a late-night snack. Do you believe I have such a grown son?"

Wan Xiaofei: ? ? ?

Thor immediately exploded on the other end: "Xu Ge, you fucking bastard, stop spreading these lies! When did I ever call that?!"

. . .

. . .

"Are you the examiner this year?" After exchanging insults for a while, Xu Ge started to get down to business.

Thor: "Why are you asking this? To bribe the examiner, is that it?"

Hearing the howling wind from Thor's direction, Xu Ge asked, "Cousin, where are you now?"

"Cousin, can you please stop asking around and follow the rules?"

"So, you should tell me what the assessment will cover this time, right?"

Thor laughed: "That's more like it! Let me tell you, this was quite a coincidence, you really got off easy this time!"

Xu Ge's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean?"

"Do you remember that business trip you went on with me during basic training? This time, Tiandu Pharmaceutical Company has sent people again, and their target is still the heart and blood of the golden wild yak."

Thor continued, "Your and Wan Xiaofei's mission is to stop them."

Wan Xiaofei couldn't help but ask, "How many enemies are there? What kind of weapons are they carrying? What is their approximate location and when did they appear? Also, where do we get weapons and transportation...?"

Snapped!
Thor hung up the phone immediately.

Wan Xiaofei stood there, stunned, and looked at Xu Ge: "Why did the call drop? Was the signal bad?"

Xu Ge shook his head: "I got hung up."

"Why? He hasn't answered my question yet!"

"He hung up the phone because the mission had been completed."

Wan Xiaofei was shocked: "What does that mean? He only said 'stop the other side'? Who conveys a mission like that?"

"Go take a shower and change your clothes first."

Xu Ge urged, "I'll tell you when we get back. We might have to leave tonight."

"Row!"

Wan Xiaofei didn't waste any time; he grabbed his clothes from his bag and went out. Xu Ge sat on the bed and summoned the token, looking at the skill data on the front while thinking about what Thor had said earlier.

front:

"Queue: LV4 (5101/9999)"

"Internal Affairs: LV4 (2833/9999)"

Physical Fitness: LV5 (212/99999)

"Shooting: LV4 (2710/9999)"

"Tactics: LV4 (3502/9999)"

"Combat: LV4 (404/9999)"

"Barrier: LV4 (1000/9999)"

"Reconnaissance: LV4 (3/9999)"

Parachute Descent: LV4 (345/9999)

Last month, during my time in the training camp, I trained day and night, and it seems to have had some effect.

Aside from the reconnaissance and parachute skills remaining unchanged, the proficiency of other skills has increased to varying degrees.

I still have 5000 points left in the general proficiency section. I don't know if that's enough to pass this assessment.

Thor was right; he did have some advantages in this assessment.

However, at the same time, as if to maintain balance, the other party provided very little information this time, not even the number and location of the group of foreign poachers.

Xu Ge knew that when Thor answered the phone, it meant that the selection process had officially begun.

Since that's the case, he decided to issue the order first.

As I said before, I absolutely have to pass this selection process; I have no other options.

Point your attention to the "Military Order" button; after the light flashes, a prompt will appear.

Please confirm the challenge details.

"Challenge passed the Hidden Wolf selection!"

The challenge chosen by the host is to pass the Hidden Wolf selection, which has been determined to be a challenge beyond the host's level, with a difficulty level of B.

Completing the challenge will reward you with 500 general skill points or 10000 general proficiency points; failing the challenge will result in corresponding penalties.

[Should a military order be issued?]

"Start immediately!"

[Generating a Level B Military Order]

Please read the following aloud in public.

[I, (Host's Name), solemnly declare that I guarantee to pass the upcoming Hidden Wolf selection. If I fail to do so, I will voluntarily abstain from all food for one week.]

Upon seeing the contents of the pledge in the notification, Xu Ge's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"The punishment for a Level B military order only applies to the individual, and the consequences are quite serious; it could even be life-threatening!"

Actually, there was already a trend in this direction in the previous C-level military order challenge. If Xu Ge remembers correctly, the punishment for himself should be not sleeping for a week.

But at least back then there was a second version to choose from.

Xu Ge believed that with his physical condition, he wouldn't starve to death even if he didn't eat for a week, but what if he happened to encounter a special situation?
You have to understand that if the challenge fails, it means the enemy has won.

I was likely injured and in a weakened state at that time. If I went hungry for a week under those conditions, I might actually starve to death!
The B-level reward is indeed very tempting, but the system doesn't seem willing to give it away so easily.

This forces me to give it my all to complete the challenge!
Xu Ge secretly reminded himself that he could no longer make arbitrary pledges of C-level or higher.

If the punishment for B-level is this severe, then wouldn't the punishment for A-level be even more outrageous?

. . .

. . .

After Wan Xiaofei finished showering, Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen had just finished preparing dinner, and the four of them went to the cafeteria to eat.

Xu Ge didn't rush to pick up his chopsticks. Looking at the food on the table, he suddenly said, "I, Xu Ge, solemnly declare that I guarantee to pass the upcoming Hidden Wolf selection. If I fail to do so, I will voluntarily refrain from eating any food for a week!"

A flash of light appeared on the token, and the military order officially took effect.

The other three: ? ? ?
"Damn! Is it really that serious?" Wan Xiaofei was completely bewildered. "Do I have to say this before we eat? Should I say it too?"

"No need, let's dig in!"

As Xu Ge ate, he said, "Station Chief, Squad Leader Cao, we'll be setting off after we finish eating."

Zhou Qiang was taken aback: "Set off? Where are you going so late at night?"

Xu Ge: "Stationmaster, we can't say that."

Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen immediately understood and stopped asking questions. Cao Dawen put the pickup truck keys on the table: "I just filled up with gas this afternoon."

Xu Ge shook his head: "We don't need a car."

Not only were Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen puzzled, but even Wan Xiaofei looked confused: "Why don't you use the car? Or do you know where we're going?"

Xu Ge nodded: "Yes, from now on you just need to follow me!"

"That!"

After dinner, Zhou Qiang and Cao Dawen stayed in the kitchen to clean up, while Xu Ge and Wan Xiaofei went back to their dormitory to pack their things.

"Where are we going?" Wan Xiaofei couldn't help but ask.

Xu Ge: "The Qiangtang no-man's-land".

Wan Xiaofei thought he had misheard: "Where?"

“The golden wild yak can only be found in the deepest part of the Qiangtang no-man's-land. Since the target of those foreign poachers is the blood and heart of the golden wild yak, they will definitely go there,” Xu Ge explained.

Wan Xiaofei: "I understand what you're saying, but why did you just say we don't need to drive? The Qiangtang no-man's-land is hundreds of kilometers away from here, isn't it?"

“Driving would be against the rules. From now on, the two of us can only use the things in this backpack.”

As Xu Ge spoke, he handed over a wristband. "This wristband has location tracking and vital sign detection functions. Don't press that rescue button lightly; pressing it means giving up."

The backpack contained a complete set of outdoor hiking gear, including clothes, shoes, a tent, a sleeping bag, several days' worth of water and dry food, and various wilderness tools.

Wan Xiaofei put the bracelet on his wrist and asked, "You mean, we're going to walk there tonight?"

"No, you can hitchhike on the national highway. You have experience with that, don't you?"

"There are fewer cars at night, brother! Can't we set off tomorrow?"

Xu Ge looked at Wan Xiaofei: "What if the poaching gang arrives in Qiangtang tonight?"

Wan Xiaofei was stunned. He finally understood the nature of this selection and assessment.

"Xu Ge, you mean that from now on, the two of us are going to the Qiangtang region to fight those poachers, and we have to find them before they succeed, but we don't have any useful information?"

"You finally understand!"

"What are the requirements for the means by which we stop the enemy?"

Xu Ge shook his head: "No, killing them all is fine too."

Wan Xiaofei's expression turned serious: "So, our most important task now is to gather information and figure out the enemy's specific situation?"

“No! Our most important task right now is to find the golden yak in the uninhabited area of ​​Qiangtang,” Xu Ge said slowly.

"Understood!"

Wan Xiaofei nodded and said in a deep voice, "Then let's set off immediately!"

Those who come to participate in the Hidden Wolf selection are naturally not stupid, and Wan Xiaofei immediately understood as soon as Xu Ge said it.

We have no information about the enemy right now, so the best option is to locate the enemy's target in advance and then wait for the enemy to appear around the target.

After Xu Ge changed into his windbreaker, he felt something in his pocket. He reached in and found a wad of cash, about 2000 yuan.

Seeing this, Wan Xiaofei also searched his own clothes and found cash as well.

After getting ready, the two of them carried their bags and left the military station, arriving at the side of the national highway.

It was a little past 7 p.m., and it wasn't dark yet. Wan Xiaofei asked, "Should we flag down a truck or a private car?"

"Anything is fine, as long as it's heading towards the snow area," Xu Ge reminded. "We have money on us, so we can pay for a ride."

"Row!"

Wan Xiaofei stretched out his hand, making a gesture of offering a ride for a fee.

It's already difficult for male backpackers to hitchhike on the national highway; four or five cars passed by, but none of them stopped.

As another Land Cruiser roared past them, Wan Xiaofei's face darkened: "This won't do, there's no one to stop..."

Drip!

With the sound of a horn, the Land Cruiser returned.
