The Soft and Cute Omega Male (ChatGPT translation)

Chapter 31

The map is composed of several parts, including dense forests, rivers, and the mountain that they previously passed through. The mountain road is roughly marked, so Ji Yuezhi can tell where the ambushes are set up.

As for the destination village, the map only shows the name and a rough direction. When they come down from the mountain road exit, they see a signpost with the direction to the destination village, which matches the direction on the map. After walking for so long and seeing a village with people, they naturally assume that they have reached the end point.

Ji Yuezhi has had a strange feeling since he came in, but he couldn't figure it out until an idea flashed through his mind: although the map shows the direction here, it never indicates the distance. What if this is not the real destination village?

This is when he finally connects all the details together.

There are too many people in the village. A normal village does not require much manpower for planting, and a few machines can solve the problem. The "busyness" seen everywhere here, coupled with the fact that the houses are too clean with no traces around the corners and doorways, as if no one has ever entered them, is suspicious. In October, the capital city has a lot of rain, and the village has land, so there should be some traces left behind. These people seem to have dropped from the sky and are only now active in the village.

The most crucial point is that if you look carefully at the crops in the fields along the way, you will find that they lack vitality. It is neither insect damage nor yellowing. Combined with other deductions, the only reason is that they have been temporarily dug up.

At this point, the people in the village have already surrounded them. Some of them are clearly hunchbacked old people with white hair, walking with their legs swaying on the road. But now, their backs are not hunched, and their feet are not shaking. They don't know where they found the sticks, but they swing them fiercely.

The group of people who are gradually being surrounded: "..."

"These people..." Jiang Hong swallowed his saliva, "are probably third or fourth-year students."

"Oh, did the junior discover it?" The nearest "old man" with gray hair, twirling his stick in his hands, smiled and said, "The instructors said that hitting you with a stick earns one point, so I specially brought two sticks!"

The instructor unexpectedly gave out a task at school, and Jiang Hong's vision suddenly went black. These animals would do anything to get the Medal of Valor, and he could already imagine the scene of them being chased and attacked by this group of people later.

"If you don't capture the flag and just leave, we won't get any points." The old man with white hair pulled off his wig and grinned at Ding Wuming. "You're a freshman, right? Your senior sister has to thank her junior brother for providing us with this opportunity."

Ding Wuming's face turned ugly, and he forgot about the pain in his thigh, feeling guilty as he looked at the other members of his team.

"Instructor?" Guan Xue suddenly shouted behind them, as if she had seen Jia Hailan and the others.

Some of the third and fourth-year military academy students who had surrounded them fell for the trick and turned back to look behind them.

"Let's go!" Zuo Luohuan decisively whispered to the others.

She and Ji Yuezhi led the way, and Yan Yan immediately lifted Ding Wuming onto his shoulder, following closely behind with Qian Mao. Guan Xue and Jiang Hong guarded the rear.

Many of the third and fourth-year military academy students were experienced and didn't fall for the trick. They swung their sticks at them, but as long as they didn't kill them, it was fine according to the instructor's instructions.
