Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1: Chapter 1 [Rebirth of a Divine-Level Superpower User]

Bang, bang, bang... A few gunshots rang out from within the Black Mist Forest at the border.

Ye Tianchen slowly opened his eyes and glanced at his brother beside him who was on the verge of passing out.

During the brief rest, Ye Tianchen wasn’t sleeping. In a situation rife with crisis, where death could come at any moment, no one could afford to feel sleepy.

He tried to stimulate the superpower within his body and found it to be extremely weak.

It must be because his soul was attached to this unfamiliar body which couldn’t withstand the Divine-level superpower. He had fallen from a Divine-level superpower user to Monarch Level, and if a mutated beast appeared at this time, he would surely be doomed.

”Ye Tianchen, the fact that you’ve come to, it’s, it’s really great, are you all right?”

Seeing Ye Tianchen wake up, the man beside him took a bullet in the back, blood flowing freely, and asked weakly.

Ye Tianchen glanced at the man next to him, and rapid flashes of images passed through his mind; this comrade was named Liu Wei and was one of the special forces soldiers on this mission.

However, the Ye Tianchen of present was no longer the same special forces soldier. Now inhabited by a Divine-level superpower user, from the very moment of the cliff fall, his identity had undergone a change, something his brother Liu Wei was unaware of.

”I’m fine, Liu Wei. How about you?” Ye Tianchen came to his senses and asked with concern.

”It’s nothing serious, brother. Listen, according to the map, there’s a mountain ahead. If you can cross it, you’ll be able to bring the female scientist to safety, unlike the other comrades...”

Liu Wei’s words trailed off there. His eyes reddened slightly, and coupled with the gunshot wound, his pale face looked even more haggard.

Thinking of the seven teammates who had set out on the mission together and had all sacrificed themselves, leaving only him and Ye Tianchen still alive—as for how long they could survive, that remained unknown—Liu Wei felt sorrowful.

Ye Tianchen glanced at the woman beside him who had passed out in her military uniform. This woman was named Han Jie, a female scientist from the military district, around twenty years old.

Despite the woman wearing a military uniform, it did nothing to conceal her beauty, especially her shapely figure. The mission of their seven-man special forces team was to ensure the safe return of this female scientist named Han Jie to the military camp.

”Liu Wei, don’t talk. I’ll get us out of here!” said Ye Tianchen.

”No, the three of us can’t escape. The enemy is too strong. Take the female scientist and go, quickly...” Liu Wei shook his head, insisting stubbornly.

Ye Tianchen frowned. Although he was no longer that special forces Ye Tianchen and now hosted the soul of a Divine-level superpower user, he still retained the thoughts of the previous Ye Tianchen.

Abandoning a comrade was something neither the Ye Tianchen of the past nor the present could do.

This time, their seven-man special forces team was escorting the female scientist through the Black Mist Forest across the border from the M country to reach the military camp.

Who would have expected that the M country government wouldn’t dare to act openly for fear of provoking a war and thus offered a large bounty to hire experts from the International Mercenary Organization, the Blood Demon Mercenary Group.

As soon as Ye Tianchen’s seven-man special forces team entered the Black Mist Forest escorting the female scientist, they fell into an ambush by the Blood Demon Mercenary Group. Not only were their adversaries all highly skilled, but they were also armed with powerful weaponry, seeming intent on completely wiping out Ye Tianchen and his team.

Fighting while retreating and facing a number of Blood Demon mercenaries several times greater than their own, coupled with the enemy’s pre-laid ambush, three of their teammates quickly fell.

When driven to a cliff, Liu Wei took a bullet for Ye Tianchen, and with Ye Tianchen protecting the female scientist, the three of them fell off the cliff together. The two remaining teammates, in their effort to cover their escape, had their heads brutally blown off by the merciless bandits.

”Don’t worry, I’ll get you out of here alive!” Ye Tianchen assured with a handsome smile.

Liu Wei was startled because he noticed a change in Ye Tianchen’s eyes.

Ye Tianchen, who had just joined the special forces and was on his first combat mission, was somewhat nervous and scared when they were ambushed.

But now there was not a trace of fear or nervousness left in him, facing this great crisis with an almost playful attitude, which Liu Wei found very strange.

”Tianchen, you...”

”Don’t say another word, kid—take off your clothes. Let me check your wound!”

Ye Tianchen cut off Liu Wei’s words, not wanting him to ask any further, because indeed, he sensed a crisis approaching. As a Divine-level superpower user, his heightened sensitivity told him any further delay might end with all three of them dead here.

”This... There’s no need for that. It’s just a minor injury, I can hang in there!”

Liu Wei, aware of the dire situation, couldn’t care less about treating wounds. The ultimate mission of a soldier is to put orders above everything else—to complete the mission even at the cost of life, embodying the soul of a Chinese soldier.

A minor injury? Boy, your entire back is soaked in blood, and we don’t know where exactly you’re hurt. If it gets to your spine, you might end up paralyzed. Then you won’t even have the strength to get in bed with a woman, and it would be odd if you don’t cry then!”

At Ye Tianchen’s words, Liu Wei couldn’t help but chuckle. He hadn’t expected that even at this point, Ye Tianchen would still have the mindset to make a joke!

Whoosh!

Right when Ye Tianchen was about to check Liu Wei’s injuries, a rocket-propelled grenade shot towards them at high speed, and Liu Wei pushed Ye Tianchen away with a shove.

Bang thud!

Ye Tianchen was shocked; even as a Divine-level superpower user reborn, who had experienced many life-and-death battles in his past life, he was stunned by this scene.

Liu Wei was directly blown dozens of meters into the air and fell down covered in blood. He defended his mission as a soldier with his life, with his flesh and blood.

”Liu Wei...”

Ye Tianchen rushed up, supporting the fallen Liu Wei, and shouted through clenched teeth.

”Run, take the female technician, it’s just you... you left, you must, must, complete the mission...” Liu Wei, covered in blood, stopped breathing after finishing his words.

Ye Tianchen gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly, sensing that several ruthless bandits were encircling him. His urge to kill surged while he also felt regret; having just been reborn into this body, his superpower ability was too weak, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had to watch helplessly as his comrade died.

Carrying the female technician on his back, Ye Tianchen quickly disappeared into the dense undergrowth. He needed time to stimulate the superpower within his body; otherwise, there was no way he could escape the encirclement and killing intent of these ruthless bandits.

As night fell, Ye Tianchen sat cross-legged, his eyes wide open, staring straight ahead, slowly stirring the superpower within his body. Having been reborn into this body, utilizing the powerful force of a Divine-level superpower user was still too difficult, and being able to stimulate even a little bit of that superpower was already quite an achievement.

And the military district’s female technician named Han Jie slowly opened her eyes. When she saw Ye Tianchen, she couldn’t help but ask:

”What about the others?”

”They all sacrificed, only you and I are left,” Ye Tianchen answered indifferently.

Han Jie was startled. This time, her secret incursion into the M country to obtain classified information was discovered, and the Chinese side dispatched seven special forces soldiers to protect her.

But unexpectedly, they were ambushed in the Black Mist Forest, and six of the special forces soldiers had been instantly sacrificed. Now only Ye Tianchen was left, this new special forces soldier. Perhaps she really couldn’t make it back alive.

”Then, what do we do now?”

Han Jie, a female technician from the military district, rarely experienced such life-and-death battles, and as a woman, she felt utterly helpless in such a critical moment, and could only consult with Ye Tianchen.

”Fight our way back, I want to avenge my fallen comrades...”

Ye Tianchen felt the thin superpower starting to stir within him. He couldn’t bear the stimulus of his comrades dying in front of him and was determined to take revenge.

”What? Our opponents are the experts from the Blood Demon Mercenary Group. Now it’s only you and me left, and you still think of revenge, are you talking nonsense?”

Han Jie was somewhat incredulous at what she heard, staring astonishingly at Ye Tianchen.

”I will not let my brothers die in vain!” Ye Tianchen said resolutely.

”Your mission is to escort me back to the military camp. Don’t forget your mission. I order you now, do not retaliate, escort me out of here.”

Han Jie wasn’t cowardly or afraid of death, but she didn’t want to see any more sacrifices. Six special forces soldiers had already died, and she felt heartache. With so many experts on the other side, and yet Ye Tianchen spoke of taking revenge, wasn’t that seeking death?

”Put away your orders. I, Ye Tianchen, will never let anyone touch my family and friends. Whoever dares, pays with their life!” Ye Tianchen said coldly.

”You...”

Han Jie was so angry she couldn’t finish her sentence when Ye Tianchen suddenly pounced on her, pinning Han Jie down in the grass. Pupu, a row of bullets flew overhead. If Ye Tianchen hadn’t been alert, or just one second slower, they would have been turned into bloody holes.

”There are many of them and they have strong firepower, don’t take risks, don’t make unnecessary sacrifices!” Han Jie hurriedly said.

At this moment, though also very nervous, Han Jie was aware they were being ambushed by the Blood Demon Mercenary Group of bandits.

This mercenary group had a reputation internationally, filled with many experts; otherwise, the seven special forces soldiers, including Ye Tianchen, would not have sustained such heavy casualties.

However, Han Jie could still feel Ye Tianchen’s hands pressing on her prominent chest, and his head nestled in the deep valley, instantly making her face turn red.

After the gunshots, before Han Jie could react, Ye Tianchen had already climbed up first, simply saying:

”Stay here and don’t move, wait for me to come back!”

Soon after, Han Jie heard screams nearby—three in total—and she couldn’t help but worry about Ye Tianchen. After all, he was a rookie in the special forces; no matter how strong, his strength was limited, especially facing a group of well-known mercenaries from the international Mercenary Group.

Just as Han Jie was very worried and was about to grope her way there, the underbrush was parted by someone.

Ye Tianchen appeared before Han Jie, dragging a bandit like a dead dog in his left hand, while his right hand held a dagger dripping with fresh blood....
