Chapter 108: Second Lieutenant Harrier
Looking at the prompt on the computer, Chu Feng was a little nervous.
“Brothers…”
"I just got promoted and will be leading people into battle soon."
"Then I can't mess around!"
"After all, I can stay dead forever, but my comrades can't! They have emotions!"
"If I lose these two precious treasures, I won't be able to be the captain anymore."
Chu Feng controlled the character to lie down and turned to look at the two scouts beside him.
The two of them just lay there quietly, looking around vigilantly.
Chu Feng immediately assigned tasks to the two of them.
"You guys are responsible for watching the road, marking points, and I'll be in charge of luring poison gas, stepping on mines, and detecting mines."
In the game, Chu Feng controlled the character to slowly crawl out of the edge of the woods.
System prompts:
You are entering a potential area of toxic gas.
Chu Feng didn't move, but instead rushed forward.
"Go!"
"I'm here to test the wind direction for you!"
The character rushed forward two steps, and a green filter immediately appeared on the edge of the screen.
The image began to distort, accompanied by violent coughing and fuzzy sound effects.
You have inhaled a high concentration of toxic gas.
[Suffocating…]
You've been killed
[Time is rewinding...]
One second later, the picture returned to normal.
Chu Feng once again appeared in the outer trench of the gray forest area, lying at the original point. Henry and Brent were still there.
He blinked and let out a breath.
On the team channel, Brandt has already given the record location.
Your team members recorded: The point of the sharp increase in poison gas concentration is twelve meters northeast, and the wind direction remains unchanged.
Chu Feng looked back at the two NPCs, they were still silent.
But the gaze towards Chu Feng's character became even more fiery!
Chu Feng chuckled.
"Look, I really touched the robot."
"But don't worry, I will personally test all high-risk terrain like this from now on."
"You are responsible for noting the location of my body."
He simply gave one order to each person.
He asked Henry to stay and observe, and Brandt to record the distribution range of the surrounding poison gas, while he went to the test area again.
This time, he changed his strategy. Instead of rushing straight ahead, he tried to go around the side to confirm whether the poison gas was released in a point-like manner or spread in a belt-like manner.
Five meters, safe.
Seven meters, fluctuations appeared.
Nine meters, the green mist rises again!
As expected, high toxic concentrations were triggered again.
Die again.
Come back again.
Start again.
The barrage is completely messed up:
"You are crazy, Brother Chu, you are really crazy."
"I can't believe I'm watching a gunfight."
"Intelligence flow is not a routine, it is a belief!"
"Luckily, my teammates are responsible for recording, otherwise there would be too much information!"
“…”
Five times.
Ten times.
The twelfth time.
Chu Feng successfully marked five delivery sources, two launch platforms, and one poison gas storage barrel.
Brent and Henry began to automatically follow Chu Feng's footsteps, execute his orders, and silently record every data, every inch of the map, and every change in wind direction.
Fourteenth time.
Chu Feng controlled the character to climb up a semi-sheltered platform and saw a camouflaged bunker in the distance.
Screen prompt:
[You discovered the enemy's poison gas and ammunition depot]
Chu Feng smiled.
At this moment, Chu Feng was silent, calm, and steady as an old dog.
Chu Feng controlled the character to slowly retreat, hid in a bush, and reopened the map interface.
He didn't rush forward immediately.
Instead, take a deep breath and start reviewing:
"Brothers, the situation is now clear."
"The source of the poison gas is located, the wind direction is fixed, there are three patrol points, one sentry tower, and the ammunition depot is exposed."
"We don't need to fight, and we shouldn't fight."
"What we have to do is to send these back alive."
He switched to the team command interface, marked the evacuation route for Henry, and asked him to leave the gas belt first and return to the front line to wait for his return to the team.
Brandt was assigned to continue observing on the spot, recording the frequency of poison gas fluctuations and the time of sentries' changing of guards.
And Chu Feng himself...
"Brothers, I plan to die one last time."
"Just this once."
He controlled the character to crouch down, go out from the bushes, and enter the outskirts of the bunker.
The shelter was silent, but the edges of the screen had begun to fade slightly green.
With his rich experience of death, Chu Feng is very clear.
The screen turned green, and he didn't have much time left.
Only six seconds at most!
"That's enough."
Chu Feng accelerated forward!
He kicked the ground hard and rolled into the bunker through a collapsed hole.
The screen quickly dimmed and an alarm sounded.
[Poison gas ammunition identification: GH-7 type, containing chlorine mustard/blue phosphorus mixture]
[You discovered the enemy's highly corrosive gas bomb storage cabin]
Chu Feng directly pulled out the flare,
The next second, a ticking sound came from above my head.
It was leaked.
It's thick fog.
You have inhaled a high concentration of toxic gas.
Severe poisoning
You've been killed
The screen went black again.
[Time is rewinding...]
Chu Feng returned to the ground, with two team members behind him.
On the map, the coordinates of the storage compartment that Chu Feng had newly marked were flashing a faint red light.
Chu Feng directly clicked "Submit task information".
A prompt pops up on the screen immediately:
[Poison gas bomb core coordinates are being uploaded...]
[The impact of this point on the battlefield is detected: extremely high]
[Affected Area: The enemy's poison gas attack plan will be interrupted and delayed]
[You completed the mission: Poison Gas Investigation]
Chu Feng was silent for a moment.
He looked at the prompt on the screen and sat up straight unconsciously.
Not long ago, he was a ghost-like newbie who couldn't even tell which way the gun was pointing.
Now, his character "Falcon" has become a key figure in the entire front-line intelligence system.
Chu Feng immediately began to lead the team to retreat.
Chu Feng controlled the character and walked in front.
He said nothing, and Henry and Brent remained silent, but at this moment, the movements of the two on the screen were always half a beat slower than Chu Feng.
They took the initiative to fall behind him, on his left and right, forming a standard screen triangle.
Brant occasionally turned his head to look in the direction of the patrol line in the distance, his finger on the trigger, ready to fight at any time.
Henry would occasionally look down at the record book, sorting out and categorizing the points marked by Chu Feng along the way.
There was no dialogue between the two, but every action showed a kind of respect.
"This is our captain. We will escort him home."
The war-torn wilderness gradually receded, the messy footprints in the mud were flattened by the wind, and the camp was just ahead.
On the screen, Chu Feng's character was the first to climb over a small slope and return to the outskirts of the camp.
Back to the safe zone,
Chu Feng looked back at Brent and Henry behind him.
The two men were covered in dust, their expressions solemn but not tired. They still looked taciturn and dull, but their footsteps always followed Chu Feng closely.
Chu Feng didn't say anything.
As soon as I stepped into the center line passage, I saw a familiar figure standing at the door of the command tent from afar. It was Lieutenant Colonel Murray.
The adjutant next to him was reporting something in a low voice, but the lieutenant colonel raised his hand and interrupted him.
He raised his head and locked his eyes on Chu Feng.
His eyes are as sharp as a knife.
Chu Feng controlled the character to walk over, stop, and look up.
The air seemed to be stretched taut.
After a while, Murray slowly raised his hand and took out a small hard leather box from the inside of his military coat.
It was a badge.
Shiny, silvery-white, and shaped like an outstretched eagle's wing, with a dark grey mark in the middle that looked like a burnt battle scar.
Murray didn't say anything, but handed the badge to Chu Feng.
There were no other options, so Chu Feng clicked "Accept".
The game character silently took the badge and slowly lowered his head.
He pinned it on the left side of his chest with a quick and smooth movement.
You obtain the title: Harrier Second Lieutenant.
You have been promoted to: Second Lieutenant, Official Reconnaissance Officer of the 13th Regiment.
[You have the authority to: formally dispatch teams and formulate regional tactics]
Chu Feng came back to his senses, his hands trembled slightly, and he controlled the character again to open the tactical map.
This time, he clicked on the "Officer Authority" column.
A new interface appears on the map.
He can start applying for tactical support points, command low-level patrol teams, mark areas for ambushes and mine laying, and even coordinate with reconnaissance units.
Murray nodded slightly, turned and walked into the tent.
No language.
No praise.
No hugs or encouragement.
But there was something that Chu Feng had never felt before, quietly rising up... it was recognition.
It is a tacit understanding between officers that does not require words.
After a long time, Chu Feng narrowed his eyes and stared at the word "Second Lieutenant". He was stunned for three seconds.
"I……"
"Promoted again?"
