The Favored Son of Heaven

Chapter 152: Perfection That Is Impossible to Believe

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

From the depths of the jungle, a seasoned soldier, who was carrying out his duties of conducting assessments, used his finger to gently rub his shiny scalp. He stared quietly at the scenes on the dozen or so monitors before his eyes.

Static...

One of the dozen or so monitors suddenly turned into the black-and-white snow of static.

“How interesting. Not only had he robbed the X2 of its loaded weapons, but this recruit can also use them in individual operation. Plus, he’s able to discover the hidden cameras. Which family did this baby come from? He just arrived at Happy Paradise Island, and he already gave me a show of strength? It looks like I need to properly entertain these... huh?”

Before the seasoned soldier could complete his words, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes. A soldier from a different landing location had actually destroyed a camera.

The seasoned soldier smiled in delight. “It looks like the higher-ranked commanding officers finally feel that they can’t hang onto their face any longer. This time they really did get some decent quality babies over here.”

Qin Fen and Du Peng followed instructions on the map. They hurried to the so-called concentrated training location, and they looked at the surrounding situation. They couldn’t help but be stunned by what they saw.

This so-called training ground contained only a small room. Looking at its size, it looked like it would be extremely cramped for three or five people, let alone a dozen or so people, to be living here at the same time.

They looked at the sign that hung on the door to the small room: Commanding Officer Quarters.

This clearly showed that the building wasn’t the dwelling place provided for the recruits.

Rainforest surrounded the entire area. Qin Fen was unable to find even the training ground, let alone whatever housing there was.

This place was totally different from recruit camp. It had been three hours since the two had arrived at this place, and no one had yet to come out and receive or guide them. If it weren’t for the fact that this place didn’t contain the hidden building and was clearly marked on the map, Qin Fen and Du Peng would have really suspected that they had gone to the wrong place.

With no one receiving them, naturally, there wouldn’t be anyone providing them food. Qin Fen utilized this chance to reveal the wilderness survival skills he learned from his drill instructors.

There were simple materials around that were quite common in raw materials. Qin Fen was able to make a meal that smelled quite decent.

A slight disturbance in the brush of the rainforest could be seen, and two soldiers who wore camouflage, having quite a bit of vegetation hanging on their bodies to act as cover, walked out.

“Smells so good...”

The person who walked in front had eyes that carried quite a bit of shock. Qin Fen had actually been able to use such simple tools to create food that smelled this good.

Qin Fen raised his head and saw the person who had first walked out. Shock arose in his heart. The soldier that had made an appearance was over seventy percent similar to Du Peng.

He turned his head to look at Du Peng. This comrade of his rarely showed even the slightest ripple of emotion in the past. However, the instant the soldier appeared from the rainforest, an extremely hostile air bubbled forth from Du Peng’s body.

“You two are recruits who are here to participate in the training, right?” The soldier whose appearance was very similar to Du Peng arrived before Qin Fen. “Hello, I am the drill instructor here. This workmanship is quite decent. I will also give it a taste.”

Rumble!

The six pitch-black gun barrels of the M134 Vulcan Cannon instantly aimed at the soldier who sat boldly on the ground.

“What do you think you’re doing to your commanding officer?”

The drill instructors’ complexion darkened when having the gun aimed at him. Not a hint of confusion could be seen in his eyes. Instead, he possessed a mighty and oppressive aura that was authority seeped out of.

Buzzzzzzz...

The electric motor of the M134 Vulcan Cannon buzzed in its high-speed rotation. Qin Fen had a tranquil face as he looked at the soldier. “You are very calm, and you really do possess an excellent aura. Perhaps if it were any other person, that person would be scared by you. But when faced with me? It is hard for lies to be effective. You are identity is not that of a drill instructor. You are a soldier like us who are also taking part in the training. As for wanting to eat the food here? That is even more of an impossibility. This is because my comrade doesn’t seem to welcome you.”

Having his identity exposed, not a hint of embarrassment or awkwardness appeared on the soldier’s face. His eyes flickered with the glow of admiration. “Interesting. You actually saw through my lies in an instant. Can you tell me at what parts I went wrong just now?”

Qin Fen shook his head and didn’t say a word. He brought the meat stew, which had finished cooking, to Du Peng’s “bowl”. The bowl was actually something that was made ad hoc out of flexible wood.

Du Peng looked at the person who arrived with full hostility. He said not a word and was completely silent as he took the meat stew that was handed to him.

Qin Fen could feel a faint tremor in Du Peng’s hand when he took the meat soup.

A martial artist of the peak four-star strength wouldn’t tremble the slightest bit even when lifting a hundred-pound object. How was it possible for a tiny bowl of meat stew to cause him to shake?

Qin Fen understood the situation very well. Du Peng’s hand had shaken not because of his lack of strength, but because of the man who had just appeared before them. There was an extreme change and fluctuations in his emotions, and only in this way could such a situation happen.

The fact that Du Peng didn’t talk caused Qin Fen to think about his good friend Enzo Rota. These two quiet men might be hard to get close to from the perspectives of others, but in Qin Fen’s eyes, they possessed a sort of indescribable intimacy. Even if he nearly rarely interacted with Du Peng, he could still feel that Du Peng didn’t have any negative feelings towards Qin Fen gaining the title of being the number one strongest recruit in fighting. At most, Du Peng just felt a desire to do battle, something that a martial artist should possess.

It was very rare for Qin Fen to have malice towards someone he was unfamiliar with. Today perhaps it was because of his relationship that was like loving the house and its crow. He didn’t have a good impression of this the person that had newly appeared.

“Hey, Young Master Du is asking you something.”

The other recruit had finally lost his cool. Were not for the fact that the M134 Vulcan Cannon in Qin Fen’s hand could fire at any moment, there was a possibility that this other recruit would come charging with punches and kicks just based on his behavior.

“Xing Wuyi, it’s okay.” Young Master Du’s smile was one of good nature, reaching from his mouth to his eyes. “Everyone here is a recruit. We all have a common enemy, and that is none other than the drill instructors here. We should get to know one another. How about it? My name is Du Zhanpeng. I don’t know what I should call you by?”

His last name is Du? Qin Fen looked at Du Peng by his side. He secretly speculated to himself. It looks like these two are very likely to be related to one another.

Rustle...

A female soldier wearing a recruit uniform bore her way out from the dense foliage of the rainforest. She was by herself, and she didn’t hold any sort of weapons whatsoever in her hands.

The female soldier didn’t go looking at Du Zhanpeng as she entered this odd encampment. She didn’t look at Qin Fen either, even though the food was quite fragrant. It was as if not a single person existed within her sight.

She chose a random large tree. She climbed it quite nimbly and skillfully. A tropical rainforest viper just so happened to be sleeping on the top of the tree. Its body twisted in fright. Like an arrow that left a bowstring, it opened its mouth to bite at the throat of the female soldier.

Bam!

The female soldier didn’t even spare the viper a glance as it shot out. She just extended a hand very casually and grabbed onto seven inches of the viper in a deathly grip. With a subtle force of her fingers, the snake’s body looked just like a balloon being inflated. It was quickly expanding...

In the end, there was a large popping sound. The snake’s entire body exploded, and ice-cold snake blood sprayed on the trunk and surroundings of the tree.

Qin Fen, who had as head lowered all this time as he gazed at his food, cast a glance of praise toward the female soldier atop the tree.

On the routes Qin Fen and Du Peng took to get here in a hurry, Qin Fen also discovered quite a few traces of ambushes. Though he didn’t know why they had withdrawn ahead of time, they illustrated that the roads here weren’t equal in nature.

For a woman to move by herself and possess not a single weapon in her hands... to seemingly not have any injury at all and be able to arrive at this place... this was not something that easy to do.

Her skills in killing the snake might have appeared to be a display of internal strength. Actually, this was the easiest way to prevent other poisonous insects and animals from getting near to her.

Nature possessed its own rules. When it comes to poisonous animals in the realm of killing, her actions were tantamount to announcing to all the poisonous animals in the surroundings that there was a new master in this piece of territory.

After Qin Fen cast over a gaze of praise, his eyes didn’t whip back to his own food like it would normally. Instead, he took his gaze and parked it on the female soldier’s body.

Xing Wuyi looked at Qin Fen’s expression. He spat out some saliva quite disdainfully. “You’re acting like such a pig when seeing this woman. Could you be lovestruck?”

Qin Fen ignored Xing Wuyi’s provocation. The woman atop the tree caused him to have a very odd feeling.

Just based purely on good looks, this female soldier was a bit lacking when compared to song Jia. However, if one were to say that there was some sort of shortcoming with the female soldier’s appearance, there was nothing to be picky about.

According to what the expert of concealment Gale Riley once said, there is no such thing as a truly perfect existence in this world. Even the world’s number one beauty would have flaws in her appearance. It was just that these shortcomings were often completely covered by her beauty and allure.

As a top-notch master of concealment and a master of anti-concealment, finding those shortcomings that others conceal in their appearance was a sort of difficult practice and cultivation.

In this field, Qin Fen really did go through quite a bit of practice and cultivation. And things really were like what Gale Riley said. There were none whose shortcomings in appearance he couldn’t find.

However, today he really couldn’t find any shortcomings and appearance of this female soldier. She wasn’t the most beautiful girl, and her figure wasn’t the sexiest, but she was the most perfect and most harmonic.

Her perfection was such that it was very easy to overlook. Her perfection was just like something out of virtual reality. Just like the most perfect and harmonic NPCs with Golden proportions created meticulously by mankind.

It was as if the female soldier didn’t sense that someone was observing her at all. She leaned against the trunk of the tree and slightly closed her eyes, looking like a child sleeping soundly in peace.

However, all the people present knew that if any sort of breeze or stir of grass were to occur, it would all be hard to escape this female soldier’s attention.

Du Zhanpeng sat across from Qin Fen’s bonfire very indifferently. Xing Wuyi also squatted down with his body. He advised, “Young Master Du, there is no need to sit together with them, right?”

Du Zhanpeng’s eyelid didn’t even raise a millimeter. “Wuyi, you need to remember something. There is no need for me to avoid anybody. I will sit wherever I want to sit. I will never get angry because of someone else’s behavior. This is because the number of people who are qualified to make me angry in this world are very few.”

Qin Fen continued to gaze at the food atop the bonfire. There were far too many people who took themselves far too seriously in this world. He had met Ge Bing from the State of Korea; he too was such a person. Qin Fen was not one to wonder at strange sights. He was used to it by now.

The hostility that Du Peng’s body emitted grew stronger and stronger. Du Zhanpeng acted as if he didn’t even sense it. He just stared at Qin Fen with great interest as Qin Fen prepared his food.

Of course, Du Zhanpeng wouldn’t actually touch the delicious food. He got the signal that the M134 Vulcan Cannon aimed at him was ready to fire at all times.

The atmosphere in the area gradually grew stranger.
