Although Michel did not clearly say what the company's crisis was, Fernandez seemed to understand it and did not ask any more. It just cut off the communication with a worried look.
After several days of recovery, Lin Rui and others began to participate in training again. Fernandez has a background in the military and naval forces, so his amphibious combat training can be said to be an enhanced version of the US Navy SEAL training.
Including a lot of physical training and adaptability training to train them to fight under extremely harsh natural conditions. Water and underwater penetration, landing reconnaissance, underwater blasting. Whatever Fernandez requires, the team members must strictly abide by it, and there is no room for negotiation. Slightly disagreeable, the steel-core rubber-wrapped stick in his hand was ready to be beaten up and beaten at any time. However, the quality of Lin Rui and the others was pretty good, and it didn't give Fernandez many opportunities to use that stick.
After the training, Lin Rui returned to the base barracks and leaned tiredly by the bed.
Zhao Jianfei patted him on the shoulder and said, "How do you feel?"
"The soreness and swelling that I have never experienced before, it is so painful to the bone." Lin Rui said calmly.
"Hehe, Fernandez is really an old bastard. However, these trainings are not his original creations. Most of them are copying some training models of the US Navy. Tossing people is true. You can't learn anything real." .
"In fact, a lot of things are fake. I learned it just to watch. The first time I went to the battlefield in the real sense, my mind was almost blank. I basically forgot everything I learned. Under the rain of bullets, I Standing there like an idiot, until the lieutenant kicked me to the ground." Ivan smiled bitterly, "but I'm not bad. One guy even peeed his pants."
"Training can only train technique, but it cannot train courage." Jiang An said slowly, "I'm just a little curious."
"Curious?" Lin Rui frowned.
Jiangshi said indifferently, "This training camp has been out of operation for a while. I don't know why it suddenly started again. And Mr. Michel has indicated that we should come here and receive Fernandez's training. I feel a little strange about it."
"Oh? Why is it weird?" Zhao Jianfei asked in a puzzled way.
"Actually, I had this concern before I came here, but now it's more obvious." Jiang An groaned, "You are an A-grade mercenary with an impressive record, but you are mixed with us. Yelena and Ivan are based on their personal abilities. It's a difficult master to count. Even Lin Rui and Peng Lefeng are among the best of the rookies. Our team is a strange combination, but it is even stranger to be brought here to train."
"We were gathered together for amphibious combat training. There seems to be nothing wrong? At least the daily training subjects are carried out according to the schedule." Qin Fen said.
"But there is no other team here." Jiang An said slowly, "Do you know how much it costs to maintain the normal operation of a training base?"
"I don't know." Qin Fen shook his head.
Jiang An smiled slightly, "It's definitely not cheap. In general, to maintain such a training base, the daily cost of personnel and facilities will cost at least 30,000 to 50,000 U.S. dollars."
"So high?" Qin Fen said in surprise.
"Not the highest. Even the wealthy Morningstar company. It is impossible to operate these training bases normally. So when there are no training missions, most training camps will be closed. This is the case for this sinking island base. And it is just such a training camp that could accommodate fifty or sixty people, but now it is only open for seven members of our team. Do you think this is normal?" Jiang An said slowly.
"It seems a bit unreasonable." Qin Fen frowned.
Lin Rui's expression moved, "Does Michelle have other plans for me to come here?"
"I don't know this yet. However, I know that Mr. Michelle never does anything without reason." Jiang An groaned.
"Then according to your idea, what might be the reason?" Qin Fen said quickly.
Jiang An was silent for a while and said, "It's hard to say. But I can be sure that we are probably here deliberately arranged. And his purpose of doing this is to prevent us from being known. In other words, we are here, it is very likely Only he and Fernandez know. Even if the company knows the existence of our team, it will not know where we are."
"Why would he do this?" Zhao Jianfei asked in confusion.
"Perhaps for protection." Jiang An frowned. "When I was his secretary, he asked to join the combat team several times, but he did not agree. But this time, he took the initiative to mention it to me. And you, I I remember that you have always been his most proud student. You entered the A-level combatant list under the name of the Chinese Gemini a long time ago. But this time, he demoted you and assigned you to an inconspicuous C-level team. . I always feel something is wrong."
"What can be the problem?" Zhao Jianfei shook his head, "Maybe you think too much."
"I hope it." Jiang An sighed.
"Could it be because of Gross?" Lin Rui said suddenly.
Zhao Jianfei frowned, "But Gross is dead."
"But the dead Gross is just a name, isn't the mastermind of the free mercenary group someone else?" Lin Rui thought for a while.
"Even if the mastermind behind the scenes really exists. Michel may not necessarily be jealous of him. You know, that is Michel, the famous Silver Wolf. He played most of the world of the Morningstar Military Security Company. "Zhao Jianfei sneered.
"This is the normal situation. However, maybe Michelle is not only afraid of the free mercenary group, but someone else." Lin Rui said slowly, "the free mercenary group can take that mission, it must be It has a close relationship with the senior management of Morningstar. After the complete failure of Thunder Operation, we are not only offended by the free mercenary group, but also the high-level forces of Morningstar against Michel."
"That's right, even if Michel doesn't care about the people in the free mercenary group, he can't help but consider the threat from the senior executives of Morningstar." Jiang An nodded and said, "If they are in this position, it is not necessary to tear each other out. It is very possible, but secret confrontation is definitely inevitable. It is impossible for them to solve Michelle by hand, but it is possible to warn Michelle by striking other people."
"Who hit?" Qin Fen frowned.
Yelena said coldly, "For example, a young think tank whom Michelle values and relies on, or his protégé, or even a few newcomers who performed well in the thunderstorm just now. And I and Ivan obviously followed Michelle’s people. That’s why Michelle called us here to avoid possible retaliatory actions."
"The power struggle within Morningstar is really like a war in the workplace." Lin Rui said calmly.
