Chapter 162 Weapons with a Perverse Taste
After everyone had confirmed their teams, the instructor began to announce the mission details.
Each trainee will be assigned a weapon, an empty water bottle, and a packet of compressed nutritional biscuits. With these supplies, they must spend two days and one night in the Amas Forest searching for various mission items placed in advance by the school.
The trainees were not allowed to bring any items, and even personal terminals were prohibited. Apart from the captain having an emergency distress signal transmitter, they had no opportunity to communicate with the outside world.
If the team finds the mission item within the time limit, they will receive bonus points for the year-end assessment. However, if they use a distress signal or fail to find the mission item, they will lose points.
Searching for unknown mission items in such a dangerous jungle requires some reconnaissance knowledge, which is why logistics students come in handy.
Xi Yu received the emergency distress device and mission display from the instructor. She casually stuffed the two pin-sized devices into her pants pocket. These items could only be activated after training began. She then looked at the weapons she had been assigned.
A sniper rifle, three electromagnetic rifles, two mini bombs, an explorer, and... a long knife.
Xi Yuzhen was speechless at the instructors' perverse sense of humor. Making the trainees fight mutants with knives? This wasn't some laser energy knife from the future; it was just a longsword!
Xi Yu picked up the sniper rifle and tossed it to Fang Yiqing without even looking at it. He was the best shot among them and the only one besides her who could handle a sniper rifle.
Fang Yiqing didn't stand on ceremony; he took the gun and immediately disassembled and reassembled it.
Xi Yu then distributed the three electromagnetic guns to Ruan Zilu and the Luo siblings, one each, gave the explorer to Luo Youhui, and gave one bomb each to Ruan Zilu and Luo Zuoling.
She took the remaining longsword for herself.
"Xiaoyu, this won't do! It's too dangerous for you... I'll trade with you!" Ruan Zilu gritted her teeth, wanting to trade weapons with her. She believed that Xi Yu's marksmanship was better than hers, so it was only right for her to have a gun.
"You know how to use a knife?" Xi Yu asked instead of answering.
"I...I don't know how..." Ruan Zilu immediately deflated.
“Then I’ll use it; I have experience.” Xi Yu shook her head and then tucked the long sword into her waistband.
The material used in this knife is very special, unlike ordinary military knives. Xi Yu guessed that this should also be a prototype of a future weapon, but it is still a long way from reaching the level of a future weapon.
Fang Yiqing couldn't help but glance at Xi Yu. The other captains had assigned the long swords to the weakest fighters, but she was the only one who had taken the initiative to take the weapon.
After the supplies were distributed, the trainees were immediately herded onto the warship and sent to the skies above the Amas Forest.
The trainees were all taken away without even having breakfast.
The Amas Forest is vast, covering the terrain from north to south, forming a natural border that separates the Allies from the Empire.
The trainees are randomly placed in their locations, and the mission items are also random.
The warship flew deep into the forest, and the trainees descended in groups with parachutes on their backs.
Xi Yu's team was the most peculiar of all, with three of the five members being logistics students, resulting in a severe lack of combat power. In the eyes of others, such a team configuration was tantamount to suicide.
They were dropped deep into the forest on the south side, and luckily there were no traces of any mutated species nearby.
