2866 Underestimate
After General Hywell finished speaking, he shook his head and smiled a few more times. He shrugged and said, “Unfortunately, I didn’t see what I expected. Perhaps I had too high expectations of the Chinese soldiers, causing me to be unable to accept the difference for a moment. After a while, when I get used to the combat efficiency of the Chinese soldiers, I think I should have adjusted my mentality.”
General Hywell was very satisfied that his words could make the surroundings silent. He was the one occupying the home ground. After deliberately pausing for a while, he raised his hand and pointed at the special forces soldiers operating on the lake. He teased, “Do they really think that our competition will start at 5 am tomorrow?
“Personally, I don’t think they know what makes the Eka Assault competition different from other competitions. Hence, I really suspect that they don’t know that the competition has already started the moment they get off the plane. Additional assessments are everywhere. There’s no real start.
“If they really think that the competition will only start at five o’clock tomorrow morning, they’ll make a terrible start. It’ll surely be an unforgettable start for them.”
His words made the generals sent by the other countries laugh.
“I think it’s possible. After all, this is their first time participating.”
“Hahaha, it’s all part of the process. We just have to wait for them to get used to it. We’re just waiting to see their exciting reaction. I think it’ll be quite fun.”
“As a big country, China revealed so many self-developed weapons in 1999. Their low-key style of doing things has made us watch them for a long time. Suddenly, there was a huge explosion and the entire world was shocked. Perhaps the soldiers sent by China are the same. They might be keeping a low profile in the early stages but may shock us again and again in the later stages.”
“China has always been humble. They’re obviously very strong in some aspects, but they always like to say that they’re average. I think it’s the same this time. Maybe it’s because they’re humble, so there’s nothing exciting to see in the early stages.
“If that’s the case, I’m looking forward to it again.” General Heywell held his binoculars with both hands and looked into the distance. “I hope the Chinese soldiers who are participating in the competition for the first time and the soldiers from the other three countries will give us a huge surprise.”
The general of an unknown country laughed first. Then, the generals of a few other countries laughed too. This laughter was filled with contempt and a sense of superiority.
They had already decided that the Chinese soldiers would definitely lose terribly in this competition. They wouldn’t dare to participate in the next Eka Assault competition anymore.
It wasn’t that they didn’t believe in the strength of the Chinese soldiers. It was just that this was the first time that the soldiers sent by China were participating. As first-time participants, they weren’t familiar with the uncertainty and changes of the Eka Assault competition. They didn’t understand why the Eka Assault competition was called a death competition without death. Sometimes, the soldiers from various countries wouldn’t have time to react and make mistakes. In the end, they lost points.
These variables and uncertainties were not informed in advance. Even though the soldiers who had participated in the competition several times knew the characteristics of the Eka Assault competition, they might still find it hard to predict what difficulties were waiting for them. They would not know what would happen in the next second.
