The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

Chapter 968 The Rattlesnake Stole Our Supplies Everyone , be quiet and dont speak ! Minimize your breathing as much as possible , and set off immediately ! Gavin glanced around at the eight Dragon Soul elites and gave the order to depart .

Everyone immediately shut their mouths .

Finished This not only saved energy but also helped prevent the moisture from their bodies from evaporating too quickly .

According to their temperature tests , the perceived temperature under the sun was nearly 140 ̊F .

With the dry wind blowing on everyone , the humidity was almost zero .

The only thing they could do was to maintain their bodys moisture as much as possible .

They had to reach the other side of the mountain in the shortest time possible to avoid prolonged activity in the extreme heat .

Everyone covered their nostrils and mouths to reduce moisture loss and prevent more heat from being -absorbed into their bodies .

In such extreme heat , every step was incredibly difficult And , the slope of the mountain was very steep .

The first section from the foot of the mountain had a slope of nearly 70 degrees or more .

Even worse , the path up the mountain was rocky and treacherous , with almost no section that was easy to walk on .

A slight misstep would send them sliding straight to the bottom of the mountain .

The soldiers had to practically cling to the rocks as they climbed upward .

The frustrating part was the lack of rocks to grab onto for climbing , let alone any footholds to step on .

It took more than an hour to walk the 0.3 mile mountain path .

Every soldier was almost on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion .

Freya signaled for everyone to stop and rest for two minutes .

Although the surface of the rocks was scorching hot , no one cared about that anymore .

They all collapsed onto the rocks , taking a brief rest .

At this moment , Brendon was still full of confidence .

He proudly looked at Maverick and made a triumphant gesture towards him .

It was his way of telling Maverick that even though he had given his energy and water to Dana from the 1/4 09 : 52 / Mon , Feb 3 Chapter 968 The Rattlesnake Stole Our Supplies Maverick smiled but didnt speak .

He knew that the real challenge lay in the second half of the climb .

Standing 0.3 mile into the climb , Brendon glanced around at the neighboring teams .

Finished The members of the Rattlesnake Special Forces , along with the elites from the Autreynia , Demberoa , and Peacock Kingdom Special Forces , were almost all in a similar position .

Dana from the Rattlesnake Special Forces waved from a distance , her stunning face lighting up with a radiant smile .

Instantly , Brendons spirits were lifted , and he responded with an encouraging gesture.

Several elite teams taking part in the competition also paused here for a brief rest .

The temperature continued to rise .

The 0.3 mile mountain path had nearly drained all of their energy .

As the two minute rest time ended , all the teams set off again simultaneously .

Aside from Vailias Rattlesnake Special Forces , who started to pick up speed , the other teams maintained a steady pace .

Seeing this , Catherine became quite anxious .

She signaled to Freya , wondering if they should also pick up the pace .

Freya motioned to keep climbing at a steady speed.

She exchanged a glance with Gavin .

They both knew that Vailias actions were clearly part of a secret plot with the Peacock Kingdom Special Forces , using dirty tactics to target the Dragon Soul Special Forces .

Based on their predictions , the upcoming section of the path was likely to contain more energy than the first area .

At this moment , the sudden acceleration of the Rattlesnake team indicated that they had received information from the scouts ahead and had likely discovered a large supply of energy and water .

According to the competition rules , each area where the elite teams from various countries and regions were stationed had energy supplies .

However , it wasnt explicitly stated that teams couldnt steal energy and water from others .

In this kind of competition , taking someone elses energy and water was considered shameful .

But in many cases , success came from being bold enough to bend the rules and exploit loopholes in the game .

At this moment , Gavin received the information from Bill , who had relayed details from the scouts ahead .

Bill also informed them that two members of the Vaili Rattlesnake team had already discovered the 2/4 09:52 Mon , Feb 3 Chapter 968 The Rattlesnake Stole Our Supplies Dragon Soul teams energy storage location .

Vailias unorthodox actions had raised confusion among the other teams .

Finished At the very least , it was common knowledge that maintaining a steady pace was the best way to conserve energy in such conditions .

The sprinting state of the Vailia team could only be described as a suicidal move .

Unless they could completely disregard their future actions and consume all their energy and water right now , if they didnt get timely replenishment of energy and water afterward , it could be said that their competition would effectively end in the second area .

According to the usual rules of the competition , each teams designated area only provided enough energy to replenish 80 % of each persons needs .

They were either preparing to abandon the competition , or they had somehow acquired enough energy and water through other means , ensuring they would have enough resources for the final two areas , supporting their stamina all the way to the final sprint .

Brendon watched from a distance as Danas graceful figure moved swiftly under the scorching sun , confusion etched on his face .

Suddenly , a sense of loss and unease washed over him .

Perhaps it was because of some kind of spiritual perception .

After running for a while , Dana waved and flashed Brendon a meaningful smile .

Brendon had intended to warn them that such actions were dangerous , but Dana and the members of the Rattlesnake team seemed to be on a kind of adrenaline high , running faster and faster .

In no time , they had created a distance of more than 200 yards between the Dragon Soul Special Forces and the other neighboring teams .

Soon , they crossed the summit and descended to the other side of the mountain .

By the time the Dragon Soul Special Forces and the other teams reached the peak , the Rattlesnake Special Forces members had already sprinted down the slope , having crossed the 5,900 foot high peak .

The other side of the mountain was not scorched by the sun , and the temperature dropped significantly .

Moreover , the path here was much smoother .

The Rattlesnake Special Forces quickly reached the foot of the mountain .

They didnt stop , instead sprinting straight to the base of the second mountain .

There , the temperature was still extremely high , with the sun beating down relentlessly , even hotter than the previous mountain .

Without hesitation , they immediately began climbing the second mountain .

They pushed all the way to the halfway point before finally stopping .

3/4 09:52 Mon , Feb 3 Chapter 968 The Rattlesnake Stole Our Supplies Finished The members of the Dragon Soul Special Forces watched helplessly as the Rattlesnake team crossed the boundary and entered the Draconia teams energy storage area .

The Dragon Soul team was stunned , completely caught off guard ! What are they doing ? Brendon stared in disbelief at the scene , muttering to himself .

Maverick snorted coldly , What do you think theyre doing ? Theyre in our energy supply area , of course , theyre trying to steal all our supplies ! D * mn it , those b * stards ! But the Dragon Soul teams position was still over 300 yards away from the halfway point .

There was no way to stop the Rattlesnake Special Forces from entering the Dragon Soul Special Forces energy supply area .

They could only watch in disbelief as the Rattlesnake team took all the energy and water from ten members of the Dragon Soul Special Forces .

Catherine shouted furiously at the halfway point , Youre shameless ! Im reporting you to the competition committee ! 1000
