Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 152 Inside the Cabin

"No way, Chang Ning, you're really planning to skydive right now?!"

As soon as Qiangzi returned to the dormitory, he saw Changning organizing her parachute bag and immediately sat down next to her and asked.

He just couldn't understand it. Mada's suggestion clearly meant putting them at risk of their lives. Chang Ning's reaction was quite intense just now, how could it change so drastically in the blink of an eye?

"Otherwise what? Do you think we can just hide from it?"
I know what you're trying to say. Now that we've joined Wolf Fang, let's be blunt: who can guarantee they'll come back alive every time we go out on a mission?

We're practically half dead already.

After packing his parachute, Chang Ning slung it over his shoulder and ran toward the tarmac.

Qiangzi was left sitting blankly in the chair, lost in thought.

With Chang Ning taking the lead, the soldiers in Group B had no choice but to follow suit.

During the final parachute check, everyone was extra careful. After all, their lives were at stake; being careless could really lead to death.

Ten minutes later, Chang Ning and everyone in Group B stood in front of Ma Da, each carrying their own parachute.

"Very well, I won't say anything more. These are all old topics, and I'm sure you're all tired of hearing them."

After saying that, Mada turned around, grabbed the handle of the aircraft cabin door, and pulled hard. With a "whoosh," the heavy cabin door was pulled open.

The passengers boarded the plane one by one.

After everyone was seated, the engine slammed its hand on the cabin wall near the cockpit, signaling that the Flying Wolf was ready to take off.

"Boom~"

Accompanied by the loud noise of the helicopter's propellers, the aircraft slowly ascended into the air under the influence of lift.

A strong sense of weightlessness slowly overwhelmed Chang Ning's senses. Under the influence of his mind, he kept saliva secreting from his mouth, and his eyelids twitched incessantly.

It's said that a twitching left eyelid means good fortune, while a twitching right eyelid means bad luck. So what does it mean if both eyelids twitch?
Regardless of what the omen was, Chang Ning felt very uneasy.

His fear of heights flared up again, and this time the feeling was particularly strong.

Although Chang Ning's fear of heights has been greatly alleviated after a lot of targeted training, the military doctor also said that he could parachute.

However, it is clear that he is not fully recovered yet. He can still parachute, but the fear is still there. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Chang Ning had no good solution to this, so he could only overcome it through extensive parachute training.

He couldn't keep holding everyone back. Even if his comrades didn't say anything, he would feel embarrassed himself.

Xiao Zhuang, Qiangzi, Lao Pao, and Geng Jihui also felt dizzy to varying degrees, but not as intensely as Chang Ning.

Chang Ning subtly observed the four people's reactions and noticed that they were also very nervous. Some were pursing their lips tightly, while others were gripping their parachute straps firmly.

The only two oddballs among the group of rookie paratroopers were the ostrich and the medic.

Ostriches also have a nickname: paratroopers. Once they get on a plane, they're as relaxed and carefree as if they're back home, without any pressure.

While the medics weren't as extreme as the ostriches, they were still much better than Chang Ning and his group.

So far, the medic has not shown any signs of tension; on the contrary, he seems quite excited.

He grinned and looked around the cabin as if there were bugs under his butt.

"Why don't you seem nervous, medic?"

The ostrich was somewhat disappointed that the medic's performance did not meet its expectations, and couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Hehe, I was a Marine before I came to Wolf Fang," the medic said to the ostrich with a simple smile, his eyes gleaming with wisdom. He had guessed what the ostrich meant by that question.

"I know you're from the Marine Corps, but aren't you a medic? Are you going to come on the plane too?" Ostrich assumed the medic was like a doctor in a military hospital, assuming that medics in the Navy spent their days doing routine training and sitting in an office.

"Who says military doctors can't go on airplanes? I was a medic in the Marine Corps, and I did pretty much the same work as I do now."

Although I've never parachuted, I've rappelled quite a few times.

Seeing that the medic wasn't nervous, the ostrich lost interest in watching him make a fool of himself.

Based on past experience, he knew he wouldn't gain any advantage over the medic, so he might as well ignore him from the start.

Thinking of this, the ostrich immediately closed its eyes and began to rest.

As an outsider, Chang Ning witnessed the antics of the two lively members of the team, which greatly reduced her fear of heights.

In fact, Chang Ning knew in her heart that this skydive was not very difficult in terms of either altitude or technical difficulty.

Except for Ostrich, all of them were skydiving for the first time, and it was obvious that Mada wouldn't make things too difficult for them.

Training for only three days before skydiving is already highly unusual. If the difficulty is increased further, it's not training anymore; it's murder.

At an altitude of 2500 meters, with a fixed parachute deployment, this level of parachute descent is the most basic and easiest part of professional airborne training.

In a grenade throwing training exercise, it would be like a new recruit throwing a real grenade for the first time, with a veteran watching from the side.

Compared to shooting training, it's like shooting at a fixed target from a prone position with support.

As Flying Wolf piloted the helicopter to climb higher, the high school team, which hadn't shown itself for three days, was driving with the remaining members of Group A to the designated landing site. They were responsible for providing ground guidance and necessary medical support to Chang Ning and Group B.

Chang Ning discovered that his fear lessened considerably when he distracted himself, so he turned his attention to Qiangzi, who was sitting next to him.

"Qiangzi, stop shaking your legs, it's not that bad."

Qiangzi's legs, which were being teased by Chang Ning, were shaking very frequently, as if he were stepping on a sewing machine.

"Do you think I want to? I can't control it."

The highest level of deception is to even deceive oneself, but Qiangzi can't even deceive himself now, so how can he expect others to believe his lies?

So Qiangzi wasn't embarrassed at all; he openly admitted that he was a little scared.

He was unsure of himself during his first skydive, and he couldn't believe he wasn't scared.

"You're making too much noise."

Upon hearing Chang Ning's words, Xiao Zhuang first glanced down at Qiangzi's trembling leg, then spoke in a playful tone.

"You may not make a big fuss, but I won't let my mouth suffer."

In response to Xiao Zhuang's teasing, Qiangzi immediately retorted.

It was clear that Qiangzi had noticed Xiao Zhuang's unconscious biting of his lip due to nervousness.

The cabin was not spacious to begin with, and everyone was very close to each other, so you could see what anyone was doing.

Everyone could see how nervous they were. Originally, the eldest brother was not making fun of the second brother, but Chang Ning broke the silence.

The tense atmosphere in the cabin dissipated considerably as the two men playfully teased each other.

Joyful times are always fleeting. As the helicopter's ascent slowed, everyone knew the final push was about to begin.

That's all for today's chapter. Goodnight, everyone.
