Chapter 167
Marina lowered her head and glanced at her wrist, where she still wore the kerchief Simon Hernandez had given her.
She carefully rubbed the handkerchief, and it seemed to soothe the restlessness in her heart.
“Captain, we’ve arrived,” Brendon’s voice brought her back from her rambling thoughts,
“Hmm,” Marina responded, immediately suppressing her complex thoughts.
Team 793 had already received the notification.
When Marina and the others arrived, the person in charge of Team 793 immediately came forward to greet them.
“Captain Bailey, Mr. Carrell, it’s great to see you both finally !” The man approaching them wore an excited expression.
Times had changed, and the leadership of Team 793 had already changed several times.
But Marina and her team’s legend remained within Team 793, known by everyone.
“You already know the purpose of our visit, right?” Marina didn’t exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point.
“I have everything prepared, and the personnel has gathered in the hall. Captain Bailey can personally make the selection,” the person in charge said with great solemnity.
He knew very well that Matthew Dickson had assigned this task, and he dared not be negligent.
“Take me to see them,” Marina stated firmly.
“Alright!” The person in charge immediately led the way.
“What else could it mean? It means it’s time for us to fight side by side again,” Brendon Carrell approached and patted Frank Wood’s shoulder.
Frank’s pupils instantly dilated.
He looked at Brendon with a face full of disbelief.
Ever since the captain disappeared, their team had disbanded.
Brendon was reassigned to be a mayor.
The army headquarters had originally arranged other tasks for him as well.
However, he declined them all and applied to stay on because he firmly believed that their captain would come back one day.
He did not expect that this day would come!
Brendon knew about Frank’s perseverance over the years. “Brother, you’ve worked hard all these years. I’ll go inside and wait for you. Come over once you’ve sorted things out,” Brendon whispered with a tone filled with emotions, then turned and got into the car.
Frank stood in the same spot and watched them leave.
The excitement in his eyes did not dissipate for a long time.
And now, the other teammates had also snapped back to reality and were frantically untying their comrades who had been captured.
Each of them looked at Frank with some caution.
“Captain, who were those two people just now?”
They seemed to faintly hear their captain calling that young lady “captain,” too.
This couldn’t be their imagination, could it?
“It is the existence that you will fight for throughout your lives,” Frank’s gaze was intense.
“Huh?” Those individuals looked bewildered.
But Frank didn’t say much more. He turned around and looked at this group of inexperienced rookies before him.
“Didn’t you all used to complain that my training was too harsh on you? After this incident, do you have a deeper understanding?”
Once Frank uttered those words, no one dared to say a word.
“I know each of you was selected from the lower ranks as elite soldiers, but when you come under my command, you aren’t even qualified to guard the entrance, let alone enter inside.”
The usually arrogant individuals were now silent, not daring to utter a word.
“Don’t you all want to know who those two people were just now? They were the first captain and vice–captain of Team 793,” Frank’s words shocked the
crowd.
That young lady just now was the first captain of Team 7937
The person was a legendary figure.
They abandoned the glory they had already achieved to become gatekeepers in the mountains, hoping to enter the ranks of Team 793 one day.
And were those two people just now the ones who had created the most formidable force within the army headquarters?
Mon,
Chapter 167
The crowd was reminded of the kick delivered by the young lady just now.
Previously, they had thought there might be some element of acting involved. But now, they believed that kick was absolutely real.
“The fact that you were able to exchange a few moves with them is something you can boast about for the rest of your lives,” Frank said.
“But you should also take it as a warning and realize the huge gap between yourselves and top–notch combat personnel.”
“As for the future training, I won’t make any arrangements. Figure it out yourselves.”
“In one month, if you can’t pass the selection test, every single one of you can roll up your bedding and get the hell out!” Frank’s heart had already followed Marina and Brendon as they drove away.
At this moment, being able to stay behind and speak to this group of inexperienced rookies was a rare opportunity.
It was a chance to give them a good knock and help them realize their potential.
Despite their arrogance and unwillingness to submit to anyone, many talented individuals were still among them.
Tempering their arrogance and cultivating more strength for Team 793 was necessary.
This was Frank’s responsibility as an instructor..
After giving his instructions, Frank did not say much more. He turned around and went to catch up with Marina and Brendon.
Brendon maneuvered the car, driving deep into the mountains.
Marina glanced at the familiar scenery outside the window, her expression carrying a profound depth.
She was born into a top–tier family, but the Bailey family was not extravagant or wasteful.
On the contrary, Chuck Bailey, Marina’s grandfather, employed a method of harsh simplicity in her upbringing.
Almost every boy in the Bailey family was sent to the military for a period of time to temper their character.
However, when it came to Marina, Chuck Bailey had some hesitation.
After all, this delicate young girl was different from those tough boys.
The military was not a place for young girls.
But Marina, who had always been competitive and unwilling to fall behind, refused to believe that there were things boys could do that she couldn’t.
So, she secretly cut her hair short and joined the army headquarters without the knowledge of the Bailey family.
That experience, though exhausting, was undoubtedly the most unforgettable in her life.
She learned many skills during her time at the army headquarters.
Later, when the any headquarters needed to form a secretive yet powerful force, Team 793 was born.
After going through multiple selections, she became the first captain of Team 793, breaking through expectations for a team of only six people.
With her leadership, Team 793 completed one difficult mission after another, establishing its reputation throughout the army headquarters.
Eventually, they became a formidable presence that terrified the enemy.
Marina couldn’t help but think that if that incident hadn’t occurred back then, she might have spent her whole life in the army headquarters.
It was a pity, but there are no “ifs” in this world.
