Chapter 693 - 693: Finding The Others!

Yan Zixuan made a gesture, and the soldier in charge of communications immediately climbed down from the tree, wiping his sweat as he came over.

“Captain, I don’t know why, but I can’t get through on the phone!”

Yan Zixuan asked, “Is the channel correct?’1

“Yes, and after failing to connect with the command center, I tried to contact our Yan family’s military satellite phone, but I still couldn’t get through. The signal was interrupted! What can we do?11

This statement caused everyone’s heart to sink.

Yan Zixuan also furrowed his brows and suddenly looked at Shen Ruojing.

Shen Ruojing pondered for a moment and immediately said, ’’This must be Jing Yi’s doing!”

This time, none of the soldiers below refuted her.

Something had happened, so how could it still be fake?

Everyone turned to Shen Ruojing and Yan Zixuan*

“So captain, what do we do next?”

“We can’t leave this island if we don’t win, right? That’s too dangerous! I heard there’s a snake here, a big one that can swallow a person whole!”

“What is Jing Yi doing? Didn’t the military district notice that something is wrong with us?”

Yan Zixuan took a deep breath* “The command center only roughly monitors our vital signs from a distance. Unless we send a distress signal, they won’t know we need help*”

With that said, Yan Zixuan looked up at the sky*

The small island was located in a tropical region, so there was a layer of white mist floating in the sky. Especially now, as it was getting late, even if they fired a flare, the command center might not be able to see it..*

What to do now?

As everyone was pondering, Shen Ruojing suddenly spoke, “We need to find the other two teams immediately to face the unknown on this island together! Otherwise, I’m afraid well all perish here!”

At critical moments, unity was the most important.

If there really was such a snake on this island, then thirty of them would not be enough. But ninety of them could put up a fight.

Moreover..,

The person Jing Yi really wanted to deal with was her.

This martial arts competition could be considered the best opportunity for Jing Yi to got rid of her in a justifiable manner.

And if all ninety of them died on this island, no one would know what happened afterward* Even with regard to the bad quality of their equipment, Jing Yi could say that they were attacked by unknown creatures on the island*.,

A perfect crime scene.

It could be said that the other two military groups were also implicated by her. She had to save them!

Compared to the Yan family’s army, those two teams were in the most danger because their supplies were the most lacking!

With these thoughts, Shen Ruojing looked at Yan Zixuan intently.

Yan Zixuan frowned.

He was silent for a while before he looked at the rest of the soldiers and ordered, “Turn around immediately and go find them for a rendezvous!”

The current situation was not too serious. It was just a loss of contact, which might only be temporary. Perhaps if they tried calling again in a while, they would get through. But Shen Ruojing’s solemn expression made Yan Zixuan genuinely believe her.

As the captain, once Yan Zixuan spoke, everyone immediately packed their things and prepared to turn back.

Someone whispered, “So what are we going to eat?”

This remark was immediately met with a nudge, followed by a whisper. “Compressed biscuits, what else can we eat?”

The person’s face immediately turned red.

Thinking about how he had been self-righteously saying that he wouldn’t eat compressed biscuits and that he would stay in line with the other two armies, he had to eat his words now. It was really embarrassing.

However, he still quietly took out the compressed biscuits, ate a few bites, and took a couple of sips of water…

They then followed behind Shen Ruojing and Yan Zixuan, walking back to their parachute landing point in the dark.

Luckily, the scouts had left traces along the way, and they were very convenient for this group to follow.

Shen Ruojing originally planned to go find Luo Jian’s team first. After all, they had secretly returned and were waiting at their parachute landing point to reap the benefits. However, they unexpectedly ran into Ji Shuai’s people first.

As the group was moving forward, they heard voices not far away.

A camp of thirty people still made quite a lot of noise.

Shen Ruojing and Yan Zixuan then exchanged a glance, and the two of them led the team toward the noise. As soon as they got there, they saw a group of people by a small stream, setting up a pot rack to cook.

Next to them were the corpses of small animals they had hunted.

There were rabbits and so on.*.

The animals on this small island were slightly larger than those on the mainland.

As soon as Shen Ruojing and the others arrived, Ji Shuai’s people noticed them and immediately became alert, “What are you doing? We found this stream first, don’t come over!”

Ji Shuai and the others thought they were here to dispute the water source.

Yan Zixuan immediately had the Yan family’s army stand their ground and went over to negotiate. “We arc now out of contact* We must join hands to get through this.*.’’

Ji Shuai didn’t believe him. “What are you up to? Do you have ten female soldiers that you can’t handle, so you want to take advantage of our army? If you’re seeking refuge, that’s fine. But if not, Yan Zixuan, I warn you, don’t try any tricks.”

Yan Zixuan,.**lf you don’t believe me, then try contacting someone on the satellite phone!”
