Chapter 1291: Underwater Operation
The sea was a little turbid due to the ocean currents. Ye Jian turned on the flashlight and nodded. Her head was facing down and her legs were facing up. She had already dived into the water.
Time ticked by and Ye Jian finished clearing the obstacles below the sea. She didn’t even have time to change her posture when she came out of the water. She immediately met up with the water ghost codenamed “Big Eel” and entered the next sea area.
Not only was the seawater dark, but it was also very muddy. Big Eel led the way while holding a navigation board. This time, he slowed down and took care of Ye Jian as they moved forward.
The navigation board was a type of hand-held equipment with a graphical compass and underwater depth displays. It could help divers to navigate accurately underwater without getting lost due to the dark environment.
The two of them continued exploring the bottom of the sea. For three hours from 5 am to 8 am, Ye Jian didn’t appear on the surface of the water. She stayed in the water and under the lead of Big Eel, she steadily completed the combat training and missions.
Big Eel shielded her and stayed alert. Ye Jian took action and completed the mission. Three hours later, she finally sneaked into the enemy’s boat. Ye Jian started to cut in from the back. The water ghost that she cooperated with was responsible for luring. The maritime combat training had entered its most crucial moment.
Li Jinnian, who had been lurking in the water, was like a sea monster hiding in the depths of the sea, quietly waiting for his prey to arrive.
He was waiting for Ye Jian. He wanted to test the results of this female soldier’s underwater training.
However, Ye Jian didn’t want to fight with Demon King Li at all. She was confident that she could fight with Demon King Li on land but when she was underwater, she knew her limits and didn’t dare to fight with him.
She carefully avoided the detection range of the ultrasonic waves and moved her feet towards her target.
“She doesn’t plan to fight with the enemy.” Three hours had passed. The navy commander, who had been observing on the surveillance screen, pointed at the figure that had been hiding in the sea for three hours. He said proudly, “Li Jinnian, the sharp knife of the unit, is on par with Xia Jinyuan.”
The major general was a little protective. “Your Li Jinnian is not bad. Our Xia Jinyuan is not bad either. Add Ye Jian to the equation and I feel at ease, Old Dong!”
The navy commander’s surname was Dong.
“That’s why I said that you really won this time. Back then, you even wanted to win Li Jinnian over. You were so ruthless that you didn’t leave a single soldier for our navy. Old Yang, it’s been on my mind all these years.” The navy commander laughed. This Old Yang was still the same as before. Whenever he saw a good soldier, he would try to recruit them.
Who didn’t want them? Everyone wanted them!
Undeniably, there were more top soldiers in the army than in the navy.
Major General Yang adjusted his military cap and felt that he needed to change the topic. He restrained his expression and said solemnly, “I’m very grateful to you for taking care of Ye Jian. I know that her training time is short so I specially arranged for her to undergo three days of individual training. Old Dong, thank you for always supporting our army’s work! Thank you very much!”
“There’s no need to be so polite. Our main reason is that Ye Jian is indeed a good seedling. Even if she’s a soldier in your army in the future, she’s still a soldier of our country.” On the screen, Li Jinnian suddenly turned around like a sea monster. One could feel his fierceness even through the screen. He sped through a few meters and the navy commander interrupted the conversation. “He has found his target.”
