The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

Chapter 967 Helping the Enemy is Like Shooting Your Own Comrades! Catherine, Maverick, and the others’

accusations left Brendon feeling irritated.

He wanted to continue arguing with them, but he stopped himself.

"I'm not going to argue with you narrow-minded, selfish, and small-minded people!"

Then, he turned around to pick up the broken boards Maverick had damaged and tossed them onto the shore,

but Freya snapped, "Stop!"

"Brendon, if you keep acting like this, I'll request your conceptual disqualification from the command center. You

can drop out of the competition right now!" "Colonel Wright, I'm just promoting humanitarian support and

showcasing our image to everyone."

"Shut up!" Gavin said coldly. "This is a battle! Helping the enemy is like shooting your own comrades!

"Brendon, I'll tell you now. If this continues, | will directly request Commander-in-Chief Ramsey to issue an order

to disqualify you from the competition!"

As soon as the words were out, Gavin's earpiece transmitted Robin's command, "If there's any more of this

behavior, you don't need to request it. I'll directly follow battlefield protocol and declare him KIA!" Robin's order

was broadcast to every Dragon Soul Special Forces member's earpiece.

Brendon immediately fell silent, though his heart seethed with dissatisfaction.

However, Robin's words clearly showed his stance.

If he continued with this behavior, he would be disqualified from the upcoming competition.

Robin immediately issued a second command.

Everyone was to give a quarter of their supply and water to Talia.

Talia would then carry out the role of the vanguard in the third phase, responsible for finding and securing supply

and water, as well as scouting the terrain and environment. Everyone immediately followed Robin's orders,

giving a quarter of their supply and water to Talia.

However, Brendon gave all of his supplies to Dana from Rattlesnake Special Forces, unable to spare any for his

own comrades. "Colonel Cross, I'm sorry, but I've run out of supplies. Once we reach the next area and | get

more energy, I'll replenish yours." Talia smiled coldly. "The front is full of unknowns. Whether you can survive

without supplies is still a question.

"My extra supplies were given by my comrades, but | can't share them with you.

"Because my mission isn't finished yet. | must stay responsible for our teammates and the ultimate mission of

the entire squad." Freya handed another quarter of her supplies to Talia. "Take it, don't refuse! Remember, you

must complete the mission!" Talia nodded seriously, then turned and sprinted off.

She knew that after passing through the second area, without enough water and energy, it would be impossible

to continue forward.

According to the rules and assessments of the competition, their goal was undoubtedly to select the true

warriors who could survive in extremely harsh conditions.

In other words, the upcoming environment would be even more brutal, and the team's journey would become

even more challenging.

Out of the 80 competing teams, half would likely be eliminated directly by the environment.

Therefore, as Robin had emphasized before they entered the mystic realm, ensuring the accumulation and safety

of energy and water was the fundamental core of the first stage of the preliminary round. Watching Talia's figure

disappear into the distance, a sense of inexplicable guilt welled up.

After all, when his comrades needed help, he felt powerless to assist them.

Because the little supply he had was given to Dana from Rattlesnake Special Forces.

However, the brief moment of guilt quickly faded.

Brendon firmly believed that the urgency of saving others was the greatest duty in the world! Crossing this river,

they entered the second area of the mystic realm-a vast mountain range. The temperature in this area suddenly

changed drastically.

In the previous plains area, the weather was calm and sunny, and there was no sense of danger.

But just across a river, the temperature here suddenly soared by more than 36°F!

The sun scorched the parched mountains, with no shade in sight and no water sources.

The hard stones on the mountains were so dry that they seemed ready to crack open.

The raging mountain winds, carrying scalding dust, seared everyone's skin, almost causing it to burn and peel.

In front of them stood a 5,900-foot-high mountain.

According to the information Bill had sent, they would only have a chance of finding water or energy after

crossing this mountain.

Freya measured the temperature, noting that under the sun, it had already reached a scorching 136°F.

As tpassed, the temperature continued to rise.

To minimize the delay in such extrheat, they had to cross the mountain as quickly as possible.

Before climbing the mountain, Gavin issued an order, "No one is allowed to use any water or supplies in their

water bottles until reaching halfway up the mountain.

"Only when we reach the halfway

point can you take a sip of water to

replenish. A second sip will be allowed once we reach the summit, to ensure we have enough strength to get

over this mountain."

Gavin's command was aimed at preventing anyone from giving in to thirst and drinking their stored water too

early.

If that happened, they would collapse before even reaching the top.

In such scorching weather, with a

blazing sun and dry winds, crossing a 5,900-foot-high mountain in these extrconditions would be an

incredibly difficult and intense challenge.

The water and energy the body naturally stores would not be enough to sustain the effort.

If they couldn't effectively control the use of their carried water and supply, it would result in a disaster.

Maverick watched Brendon wiping the sweat off his forehead and chuckled, "Brendon, I'm wondering, without

any energy or water, how do you plan on getting over this mountain?" Brendon smirked, "Maverick, today I'll

show you what true endurance looks like.

"My grandfather trainedfrom a young age to withstand the limits of energy and water deprivation.

"This little mountain, with just over 136°F heat, isn't enough to stop me."

Maverick shook his head. "Brendon, don't forget, my grandfather and yours both trained with the smethods.

I've got the sskills.

"What matters is, can you guarantee that you'll still have energy supply left in the even tougher conditions

ahead?

"The water in your bottle-no matter how much you can endure should never be consumed easily.

"This is the basic knowledge for us special forces!

"I believe, with Commander-in-Chief Ramsey's character, you definitely won't make it to the next round of the

competition."

Brendon shrugged indifferently. "By

doing this, I'm proving it to

this."

Maverick shook his head, no longer paying attention to Brendon.
