Another two days had passed and the exercise had reached a feverish stage.
In the campsite of the Red Team, Austin Shepherd, who spent every day looking at the computer data, massaged his tired brow with a touch of amusement.
"How’s the situation?"
Nathan Foster pushed aside the curtain of the tent and strode in, his question directed at Austin Shepherd.
He didn’t understand this stuff anyway. He had left it all to Austin Shepherd. Even when he was eager to know the situation, all he could do was to stand by and watch.
Regardless, while he might not be responsible for much, he was still worried about those rookies. That alone was enough to keep him awake at night.
According to their plan, being able to last two days in the exercise was enough to continue in the new recruit training. However, only those who could successfully land on B Island could potentially get into their amphibious reconnaissance team. As an instructor, he naturally hoped for more excellent candidates.
"Whom are you asking about?"
Austin Shepherd glanced at him with a hint of a smirk in his eyes.
Nathan Foster’s brows knitted together, "Can’t you say what you have to say instead of incessantly asking me questions?"
As a rough man, Nathan Foster couldn’t grasp Austin Shepherd’s meaning, and he surely didn’t like beating around the bush. In short—he didn’t understand the world of the intellectuals.
Sighing, Austin Shepherd beckoned him to sit beside him and then began explaining while pointing at the computer screen, "Right now, about thirty-five groups can make it to B Island, but only twenty groups may succeed in landing."
Austin Shepherd paused, noticing Nathan Foster’s furrowed brow. Unexpectedly, he chuckled, patting him on the shoulder, "Don’t look so worried, you know what kind of a freak show the Blue Team is. It’s already commendable that we’ve got twenty groups that could land on the island."
"Alright, alright, I know."
Waving his hand, Nathan Foster replied somewhat irritably.
He felt bitter having his soldiers swiftly eliminated by the enemy. Could he not be upset?
He wasn’t as laid-back as Austin Shepherd, who seemed to have accepted the fact that it was normal for all the new recruits to be wiped out.
"Well, that’s about those who would land on the island," Austin Shepherd pointed his eyes, turned his head, and looked at him quite earnestly, "After landing... based on the current data, only twelve groups would be left."
"..." Nathan Foster paused for a moment, then also gazed back seriously, "You know what I want to do now?"
Austin Shepherd blinked, a bad hunch creeping over him.
"I want to slap you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Nathan Foster’s fist flew towards Austin Shepherd. Fortunately, Austin Shepherd’s intuition was quite sharp. Sensing the powerful gust of wind, he instinctively turned his head, just barely dodging the blow as it swept past his scalp.
"Wait a minute, there’s one more thing," Austin Shepherd said, smiling. He halted Nathan Foster’s action with the best possible measure.
There was no way he could win in a physical altercation with a martial adept like Nathan Foster. If he could, he wouldn’t mind having a friendly spar with him, but right now, there certainly wasn’t time for that.
Nathan Foster said irritably, pulling his hand back with a cold huff, indicating Austin Shepherd not to waste any more words.
"It’s about Calvin Ramos’s group," Austin Shepherd sat upright and pointed to a certain point on the screen’s map, "They’re already close to the center of the island."
"Not surprising," Nathan Foster contemplated, frowning slightly.
Judging from the performance of Calvin Ramos’s group in the previous days, there was nothing surprising about them infiltrating the island unscathed.
