Cross-country running, ten kilometers.

Armed swimming, three kilometers.
Those who are punished, double the amount honestly.
"That way..." Joshua Bailey pointed toward the mountain road and spoke with ease, "Run!"
No sooner had his voice faded than everyone looked in the direction he was pointing.
It was a succession of mountain roads.
Plus the vast white snow.
There were traces of people walking on the mountain road, traces of off-road vehicles passing by, but the snow wouldn’t simply melt away, and with the freezing weather, they were in for a really tough time.
Wait a minute—
Armed swimming?! In this cold weather, they have to swim with equipment?!
"What, you don’t feel like running?"
Seeing the changing expressions on everyone’s faces, Joshua Bailey’s face showed a hint of a smile, looking incredibly sly.
Was it necessary to be this harsh for just a morning exercise?!
Collective silence.
But, while most people were hesitant and faltering, a few who were determined had already started running towards the mountain road one after another.
This time it was just cross-country, not armed cross-country, so their burden was relatively lighter.
It was still very tough.
Not to mention the physical exhaustion and hunger, just dealing with those snow-covered roads alone made it incredibly hard to run, requiring three to four times more effort than running on an ordinary road.
The worst part was, it was still very dark!
And from time to time, they would fall quite hard.
They were wearing regular military boots, which had no ability to resist such snow, and they could easily slip and fall with one misstep.
Along the way, Flossie Wright and others saw the group of spectacular falls and felt both amused and speechless.
"I finally understand why they woke us up so early," Becca Reyes said while jogging slowly along the vehicle’s tracks, taking the opportunity to complain to Flossie Wright, "With this level of training, by the time we’re done, it’ll just be in time for breakfast."
As soon as she finished speaking, Iris Dukes, who had turned her head to check on the situation, suddenly let out a yell and fell flat on her face.
In front of her was none other than Glenn Hutchinson’s junior—Devina Millet.
Unfortunately, Iris Dukes fell right on her back, and Devina, who was already lacking in strength, inevitably plunged forward.
She crashed heavily into the snow.
Seeing this scene, Becca Reyes felt a headache coming on and hurriedly sped up to go help Iris Dukes get up.
"Who’s the blind one?"
Devina Millet, with a grimace from the fall, turned her head irritably and yelled back.
"Sorry about that."
Iris Dukes looked at her with tear-filled eyes, waving her hand that had hit a rock.
Her back of the hand was harshly struck, leaving several bloody marks, with fresh blood slowly seeping out.
Devina Millet glanced at her hand a few times, and although she still felt pissed off, she eventually pursed her lips and got up from the ground on her own.
With each step, she quickened her pace to run forward.
Wishing she could get even farther away from them.
"Becca, has she forgiven me?" Iris Dukes asked with her watery eyes, full of unease and anxiety.
"Don’t worry, she has forgiven you," Becca Reyes patted her head, providing reassurance.
Who cares if she forgives or not! It wasn’t on purpose.
