The driver was a grumpy Frenchman wearing Hawaiian-style short-sleeved shorts, shorts, an inch of hairstyle, and brownish-black skin.
The passenger with parted blonde hair and a slightly immature face was Lyon, a quasi-investigator.
In terms of
dress and equipment, Lyon's upper body is a black light jacket and short sleeves of the same color produced by his own military industry, his waist seal is full of tool bags and magazine bags, his lower body is dark green multi-pocket cargo pants, as well as leg holsters and military boots, and there is a black backpack in the back seat of the car.
The reason why they did not deliberately hide their identities was because the African country they infiltrated into, that is, the Congo, was in chaos.
Turf disputes between tribes, large numbers of refugees and deserters sheltered by anti-government forces, riots, mutiny, and killings are the norm in Congo and are not uncommon.
It
obviously has a large amount of gold, copper and iron ore, and its natural gas reserves are among the best in the world, but it is one of the poorest countries to "hold a golden bowl and ask for food", with a GDP of only $4.2 billion in 1993.
Air defense is about none, not to mention that Congo has not even established an air force, which is a difference between heaven and earth compared to Atlas, which spends nearly $2 billion a year to maintain military expenses.
Coupled with Leon's skin and hair color, he looked like an outsider, so there was no need to deliberately hide anything, anyway, there were countless mercenaries and criminal organizations operating in the Congo.
A day ago.
The chief instructor Clausa announced the contents of the "graduation exam" to them, and went to the Congo to investigate, try to search for abnormal things, and successfully survived.
Fourteen days.
During this time, the company will not take the initiative to provide them with any support, and everything will depend on themselves.
Of course, if you unfortunately fall into a life-threatening moment and cannot escape on your own no matter what, then the company will still send an ARS company to launch a rescue operation that spares no effort.
But as an investigator, luck is also an invisible and intangible strength, and if you can't get out of trouble on your own, it will seriously affect the final score of this "graduation exam".
However, before Lyon and the others picked up their own equipment and brought enough supplies to board the plane, Clausa also gave a final advice, that is, "stay alive and don't hold on because of the exam".
Because even if the overall score is unqualified, the trainees who have been trained for half a year will still be arranged to the most suitable position according to their resumes, and if they are besieged by some thugs, they will die for the sake of grades... The spirit of
unyielding death is commendable, and the behavior of being too stubborn and not knowing how to adapt is not worthy of praise.
July 16, 00:34.
The ARS aviation company provided a "service" flying from the Kenyan base to the Congo, after which Lyon and his classmates parachuted out of the cabin one by one and landed in their respective survey areas in the dark.
02:20.
Lyon made a successful touchdown.
After folding and retrieving the umbrella, it was determined through the positioning of the individual computer that he was located in the central part of the Congo, and the straight-line distance from the target town of "Loja" in charge was still 30 kilometers.
It may be related to the wind speed, or it may be related to the turbulence of the transport plane when he jumped, but in any case, the distance deviation is really a bit large.
The plan to
hike to the target location was unrealistic, and there was a large area of primeval rainforest in between, so after a short period of trimming and analysis, Leon chose to rush to the nearest town called Longa first.
