Chapter 749: Chapter 752: Lin Zitong Goes into Battle

Once Hu Zhengwei had finished speaking, Lei Zhenhu and Lambosky both widened their eyes and exchanged glances.

Unexpectedly, Hu Zhengwei had arranged for reinforcements from the Sanders Mercenary Team and the Giant Stone Mercenary Team!

It seemed that, in order to secure their positioning as a Three-star Mercenary Team, Hu Zhengwei really went all out this time.

”With the help of those two additional people, I think, there’s no real point in proceeding with this final intelligence competition. If we can’t win with this, we truly should go meet God,” he said.

Lambosky looked at Hu Zhengwei with a grateful expression, then touched his chest and forehead three times with his right hand, making a prayer gesture.

Lei Zhenhu took a deep breath and confidently said, ”Captain Hu, rest assured, since you’ve arranged everything to this extent, we will definitely give our all in this last competition. The championship will surely be ours!”

Although the plan was perfect, Lei Zhenhu still felt some regrets.

His regret was that this matter seemed totally unrelated to War Dragon, meaning he couldn’t find a reason to target War Dragon in the final round; he had to prioritize the big picture.

”Hmph, War Dragon, others, just wait. Even after the competition, I won’t let you off easy!” Lei Zhenhu thought fiercely, clenching his fist.

As long as they could secure a rank as a Three-star Mercenary Team, they could practically do as they pleased within the Executive Committee.

What about War Dragon’s presence in the Executive Committee?

They are a minority, useless!

...

The next morning, the fair and unbiased chief referee announced the rules for the final intelligence theft competition in the great hall.

After explaining for about ten minutes, the chief referee added, ”In short, the ultimate goal of this intelligence theft competition is to retrieve a treasure map stamped with the Asian Mercenary Association’s seal from that European Mercenary Team.”

”Also, the rules are, you can’t kill them, but they can kill you, understand? This European Mercenary Team is already on Jungle Island, and they don’t know they are just a sideshow in this competition, so be careful about your personal safety while stealing the treasure map.”

Concluding his speech, the chief referee once more added, ”Let me emphasize the rules again, the competition ends when the sixteen flags and the treasure map are secured, and I will fire a signal flare to indicate. Afterwards, please gather at the Jungle Island pier to register. Remember, the order of arrival may well determine your ranks. This competition lasts for three days. If the flags aren’t completely found within three days, I will personally fire a signal gun. When you see the signal, gather at the port to register as well.”

The elderly chief referee resembled a leader conducting a school assembly, repeating ”Just one more thing” multiple times until he finally concluded his speech.

Then, everyone headed to Jungle Island together.

This time, members of the Observation Team could not accompany them; only the sixteen mercenary teams’ members and the referees and supervisors could go.

All the people traveled on a ferry to arrive at the sole port and pier of Jungle Island.

This vast island, with its undulating hills, appeared completely uninhabited, just like a primitive jungle.

Fortunately, the port pier was well constructed, with four buildings capable of withstanding a category ten typhoon.

The buildings were not tall, only four stories, but they were sufficient to accommodate the accompanying personnel waiting there.

There was a large gate separating the port from the Jungle Island forest, fenced with iron mesh.

The chief referee personally unlocked the gate, warned the competitors not to break the rules, and then had a male and a female staff member search all competitors.

Guns were prohibited to prevent loss of life.

Electronic communication devices were also banned to prevent competitors from communicating with their own teams.

After the inspection was complete, the chief referee gave the order for all competitors to leave through the iron gate and head into the deep woods.

At War Dragon, it was Lin Zitong’s turn to compete last.

She walked through the crowd with a small package on her back, turning her head towards Qin Tian and smiling sweetly.

”Be careful, points aren’t the most important thing—safety first.”

Qin Tian stood in front, shouting to Lin Zitong.

In the sea breeze, Lin Zitong’s hair was blown about, she nodded and smiled even more charmingly.

Indeed, War Dragon had already secured first place by then, there was no need to fight desperately anymore.

After all, Lin Zitong wasn’t originally a mercenary, so she wasn’t as experienced as the others; Qin Tian didn’t even wish for her to take first place by getting that treasure map.

It was too difficult.

Qin Tian knew without thinking that in this last round of the competition, Fierce Tiger and the Persian Gulf Team would definitely fight to the death. There were no communications in the jungle, and if the people from Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf teamed up against Lin Zitong, that would be bad.

Qin Tian stood watching Lin Zitong’s retreating figure, and he realized that although he hadn’t known Lin Zitong for long, he was quite concerned about her safety.

”You care so much about her, why don’t you apply to go to Jungle Island and be her bodyguard?”

Mu Yunxi came up beside Qin Tian, her gaze also on Lin Zitong, she said.

Qin Tian speechless: ”Yunxi, now that Zitong is our teammate, can’t you show a little womanly gentleness and care about your fellow combatant?”

”I lack a woman’s gentleness. As for her, your concern is enough, does she even need mine?”

Mu Yunxi glanced at Qin Tian, called him a ”flirting scoundrel,” then turned away and walked towards the others.

After all the competitors had vanished deep into the woods, those teammates waiting at the port finally returned to their temporary accommodations to wait.

Each team was assigned two large rooms for lodging, but they ate and rested in a large building at the very front.

After the competition started, those waiting in the resting room still chatted incessantly, but by noon, everyone seemed to have stopped discussing and was ready to eat.

”Humph, humph...”

By some twist of fate, Qin Tian ended up sitting at the same table as Lei Zhenhu during the meal.

This guy sat next to Qin Tian and kept giving him cold sneers while eating.

”Humph... humph...”

He was just an idiot.

”Damn, what are you laughing at me for? I’m not a beauty. Are you having a seizure or what?”

Unable to bear it any longer, Qin Tian finally got angry and turned to Lei Zhenhu.

Lei Zhenhu still sneered, ”Qin Tian, although your War Dragon has secured a three-star ranking, what does that matter? I’ll tell you, in this last round, the championship will belong to my Fierce Tiger Team!”

”That beauty you guys sent out, tsk tsk, too bad, if she encounters my team’s members, she’s going to suffer.”

The Fierce Tiger Team had also sent out a tall beauty.

”Your people might not necessarily be able to beat mine,” Qin Tian snorted coldly and continued eating.

Then, Lei Zhenhu leaned in and whispered to Qin Tian, ”Even if my people can’t beat yours, my people have allies, and not just one... heh heh, what do you think the outcome will be? Your person might even die on Jungle Island, who knows? There’s no surveillance there, who knows who killed whom; maybe she’ll be bitten to death by wild beasts? Hahaha...”
