Of course, no matter what the situation was then, even if Nathan Foster screamed his lungs out, she absolutely wouldn’t do the duck-walk.
She wouldn’t be bothered with unnecessary circumstances.
In the end, she just wanted to improve her physical fitness. She had many ways to do that and wasn’t in a rush. She never felt impatient because this place was much safer than her previous life—there was no constant threat of death.
She didn’t necessarily have to join the recruit training. The reason she made a lot of effort previously was largely due to Squad Leader Lin.
His expectations and wishes were, in her view, as simple as lifting a hand.
Becca Reyes was unclear about Flossie Wright’s thoughts. She pondered for a while and then looked at Flossie in doubt, "When Instructor Foster comes over, are you planning to resist him?"
Shrugging, Flossie glanced at her, "Possibly."
"You really are..."
Gazing at her dumbfoundedly, Becca was at a loss for words.
Just then, Little Yan, who had run away in a cloud of dust, stopped by their sides in time. He couldn’t help but complain to the two of them, "Hey, your Instructor Foster is really terrifying on the training ground, just saying a few words feels like he wants to eat people."
"Tough job." Becca gestured him over. When he approached, she asked with a smile, "How did you know we were in trouble?"
"I’m not that great," Little Yan waved his hand and a mysterious smile appeared on his face. He glanced sneakily at the back door of the kitchen, and then glanced at them, "It was Squad Leader Lin who was worried about you two causing trouble. He sent me to watch over you. Just as I arrived at the training ground, I saw you two wanting to confront Instructor Foster."
As he spoke, Little Yan amusingly gave them two a thumbs up, he exaggeratedly praised, "Impressive, truly worthy of being our cooking class heroes. Only after spending a few hours elsewhere, you dare to confront others, and after just a few days, you’ll have taken over a whole group of people?"
"You little..."
Becca’s mouth twitched, she raised her fist and aimed it at Little Yan. But he was already prepared and quickly jumped several meters away, running away after speaking.
Her punch fell through and Becca watched as he darted into the kitchen, feeling a little ticklish and wanting to laugh and cry at the same time.
When the soldiers had their meals, the canteen had just finished a busy period, so Little Yan was clearly making an excuse. However, the treatment Flossie and Becca got wasn’t too shabby, they received many fruits and vegetables in the kitchen and got to enjoy the meat and egg soup Squad Leader Lin prepared in ten minutes. The small stove was blatantly lit, but only for their squad, the other soldiers did not even have a chance to drool over it.
After breakfast, Flossie and Becca helped to cut some vegetables during their break. They arrived back at their squad just in time for the recruit assembly. Even though they had already been the object of envy from many recruits because they did not have to do the "duck-walk" in the morning, they calmly participated in the training as if nothing had happened.
If the morning exercises could only be considered a warm-up, then the formal training session during the day could be described as "hellish".
From morning to evening it was all about training, not special trainings, such as the five-kilometer military swimming, 100-meter sprint to improve explosive power, basic boxing skills, resistance to sun exposure, shooting training...
Speaking of laying a foundation, it means repeating the same training countless times. They underwent military swimming twice a day, practiced 100-meter sprints hundreds of times, repeated uphill charges dozens of times, and even their rare moments of rest were during shooting training. They waited for the intervals between rounds of shooting, breathing steadily while reassembling their guns, firing bullets while their hearts were pounding.
