Chapter 369: Treacherous start

After the meal, they were summoned to a hall. A middle-aged man in a suit walked out and said to them, "Welcome to the contestants. First of all, on behalf of the Military Professional Committee, I would like to welcome everyone here. You represent all private individuals. The military company's participation in itself represents your extraordinary strength. The Waynes Competition has been established in the 1990s and its sole purpose is to push individual abilities to the extreme during the war."
The middle-aged man paused for a moment and looked at all humanity, "War is initiated by humans, and promoted by humans. No matter how advanced our technology is, and how advanced our weapons and equipment are, humans are always the subject of war. Pursuits. The ultimate individual combat capability, the real meaning of the Waynes competition lies in this. In this competition, you will encounter unimaginable difficulties, even the best fighters may not be able to reach the end. But please keep one in mind. The noblest qualities of a military professional: courage, perseverance, wisdom and responsibility."
The forty-five participating members were silent below, most of them from major private military companies. With rich combat experience, many people are even veterans on the battlefield for more than a hundred battles. They all seem to disagree with the scenes of the man in the suit.
In their view, this man in a suit is just another soft guy who relies on slapstick and flattery. If he really got on the battlefield, he would definitely be a counselor. What qualifications does he have to discuss with these true men here about courage and tenacity? So most people seem to be indifferent.
The man in the suit smiled at them and said, "Well, we have prepared a single lounge for everyone, with hot water baths and warm beds. You can rest there according to their numbers, and then prepare for tomorrow's formal The game. I hope you will do well." The man in the suit nodded with a smile, and walked away.
"It's really a bullshit, we don't know what to compare with tomorrow's game. This Waynes game is really abnormal." Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"Forget it, let's go back and rest early. No matter what the situation is, there is no harm in maintaining physical strength." Lin Rui nodded and said, "No matter what content they are compared to, they must have a good body and a good spirit. ."
Both An and Zhao Jianfei nodded. After separating from them, Lin Rui went back to rest. He found the room marked No. 42 and looked at the seal he put on the back of his hand during the physical examination, which was also No. 42. He smiled bitterly and sighed. This practice of stamping the back of his hand is a bit funny, just like inspecting live pigs in a slaughterhouse, and they are the batch of pigs that passed the inspection.
Pushing open the door of this room is a single room. The so-called hot bathroom of the man in the suit is just a simple shower head, and the so-called warm bed is just a camp bed and a military blanket, everything is extremely crude.
Lin Rui was lying on the bed, and he suddenly felt a little sleepy. If it is an ordinary person, then it should be natural to sleep. But Lin Rui was different. He was a person with strict schedules. When there is no task, he rests at ten thirty on time every night. And now it was just after eight o'clock in the evening, and the sudden surge of sleepiness made him a warning sign.
wrong! Lin Rui was suddenly excited, and he jumped off the bed. But the feeling of drowsiness didn't seem to alleviate, and it even got worse. Lin Rui immediately realized what was wrong, and he immediately thought of the great dinner just now. With a sudden twitch in his heart, these people drugged the food.
All mercenaries know that the next game will be very difficult, and may even be unable to obtain food for a few days, so just now almost everyone is eating as much as possible. And if the organizers of the competition prescribe drugs in these foods, it is simply impossible to prevent.
Lin Rui felt a panic. He understood that this cruel Waynes competition had actually begun when they had dinner. Stay alert at all times, this is the first rule of mercenary survival. And just now, many people have committed this taboo, including Lin Rui and Zhao Jianfei.
"Damn!" Lin Rui scolded fiercely as he struggled to get up, but the dizziness became more and more obvious. He walked quickly to the shower head, planning to flush his dizzy head with cold water. But at this moment, a white mist suddenly sprayed from the shower head, and it couldn't be turned off. This pungent smell immediately made Lin Rui understand—tear gas!
Lin Rui's heart jumped suddenly. Immediately clutching his nose and rushing to the door, he suddenly stopped at the door. All this has a purpose. If medicine is used in food, it is to make them sleepy and unresponsive. So what is the purpose of the shower head that suddenly emits gas? The purpose was obviously to force him to rush out of the room.
Lin Rui's heart was bright. He covered his mouth and nose and wrapped the shower head with a military blanket. Although this could not prevent the tear gas from spreading in the room, it could at least slow it down. He took a quick look at the room again, there must be surveillance cameras somewhere here. Otherwise they would not suddenly turn on the tear gas when he rushed to the shower head.
Lin Rui smashed the lamp in the room without hesitation, and the whole room was dark. He hid at the door and forcibly endured tear gas, and the Silver Wolf gave them special training in this regard. Lin Rui's best record is staying in this environment for five minutes. This time he has to take a gamble.
He knew the purpose of tear gas to force him out was because someone outside was waiting for him to take the bait, and there must be an ambush outside the door. What he bet is how much patience these people have to wait after the other party loses his surveillance, if they don't rush in within five minutes. So no matter how dangerous outside, Lin Rui didn't want to rush out.
And if these people can't bear to rush in, then his chance has come.
Lin Rui took off her camouflage short sleeves, covered her nose and mouth to reduce the influence of tear gas, and squatted quietly at the door. Sure enough, after two minutes, the opponent lost patience, and an armed man wearing a black combat uniform and a gas mask rushed in. His movements were very professional, he broke the door with one foot, and then immediately raised the submachine gun in his hand, without any pause.
That's what Lin Rui was waiting for. He took advantage of the man's kicking and raising the gun, and suddenly slashed the opponent's knee with a palm. The opponent was caught off guard, his legs softened, and his body staggered backwards. Lin Rui immediately followed, and hit the man's neck with a single palm. After the blow was successful, Lin Rui took down his gas mask and buttoned it on his face.
At this moment, other people outside had discovered that the situation was not right. They raised the submachine gun in their hands and fired a round. The 9mm rubber bullet hit Lin Rui and could only retreat, and was forced to give up the idea of ​​picking up weapons on the ground.
