Special Forces: At the beginning, An Ran pulled him to get his certificate.

Chapter 1393 3 month later

Time flows like a gentle stream, and before we know it, the Mid-Autumn Festival has quietly arrived.

In the traditional culture of Yan, this day is a time for family reunion, symbolizing warmth, harmony, and happiness. However, for soldiers, this special holiday holds a different meaning. It is precisely on such holidays that they are often busier than ever.

The same goes for law enforcement officers. They gave up time with their families and stayed at their posts to protect this hard-won peaceful era, so that more people could enjoy the joy of family reunion in peace.

These selected elite members have already spent three months in secret training.

Three months of rigorous training have brought about a complete transformation in them, both in appearance and in spirit. Now, they are more mature and composed than when they first arrived, their eyes revealing a kind of determination and courage—a quality honed through countless arduous training sessions.

Their gazes were like drawn blades, filled with murderous intent, sharp and chilling. Even dogs on the street would instinctively feel afraid when they saw them.

In the training program meticulously designed by Chen Jun, the ability to perceive danger, also known as the sixth sense of war, played a crucial role. This ability was key to navigating the jungle obstacle course; without enhancing this sixth sense, it would be impossible to pass the severe test of the jungle.

Fortunately, after three months of grueling training, everyone successfully passed the test, and the completion time was generally kept to around three minutes. Behind this achievement lies countless hours of hard work and dedication.

Their lives during those three months were incredibly difficult. They only got four hours of sleep a day, and all they did was train intensely.

They are not awakened by their ideals each day, but by the pungent smell of tear gas. In the morning, they are not greeted by the warm sunrise, but by the biting frost and the cold moon. Eating has become a luxury for them; they often miss out on hot meals, sometimes even having to eat hastily in the mud or beside stinking ditches. As for sleep, that is an even greater dream. Sometimes, they are too exhausted to even climb into bed, and they simply fall asleep right there on the edge. In addition to this, there is the mysterious medicinal bath.

Every day after dusk, as night falls, howls like those of wild beasts can be heard from inside the tents. They are enduring the immense pain brought on by the medicinal bath, yet they are constantly transforming themselves in the midst of that pain.

On the afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, after a day of rigorous testing, everyone's scores met the standards. Chen Jun stood calmly before them, his gaze sweeping over each person, and said in a calm yet powerful voice, "Not bad. After three months of special training, in my mind, you are barely qualified soldiers. Tonight, you are given a leave of absence. Go back, take a shower, change into clean clothes, and have a good meal tonight. The food is ready. Meeting adjourned..." After saying that, Chen Jun turned and left, leaving a group of team members still immersed in surprise and joy.

Upon hearing Chen Jun's words, the team members stood frozen in place for several minutes, none daring to move. They were already accustomed to high-intensity training and all sorts of unexpected tasks, and at this moment, they were all wondering if this was another "trap" with extra training or other "programs" to come.

Seeing this, Lao Fan walked over and pulled the team members hard, shouting in a low voice, "What are you standing there for? Go back and take a shower. We'll have extra food tonight."

Upon hearing Lao Fan's words, everyone finally realized what was happening and cheered.

"Take a shower, take a shower, holy crap, I haven't had a proper shower in three months, I'm dirtier than Ji Gong!" one of the team members shouted excitedly, his face beaming with anticipation.

"It smells awful, everyone, let's not laugh at each other, let's go." Another team member responded with a smile, and then, like wild horses, everyone excitedly rushed towards the base's bathhouse.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lao Fan approached Chen Jun and respectfully reported, "Commander, the special program has been arranged as you instructed."

Chen Jun nodded slightly, his expression softening, and said, "A balance between work and rest is necessary. As soldiers, on such special days, home is the best place to be."

Old Fan sighed softly, a hint of melancholy appearing on his face: "Yes, sir, I envy these bastards. It's a pity my ex-wife doesn't want to come. Even after I became a general, she only changed her address; her attitude remained the same." On this moonlit night, the autumn thoughts in Old Fan's heart surged like a tide, year after year, yet he could never let go of them.

Night fell within the mysterious cave base, where all members of the future national strategic security department, dressed in brand-new military uniforms, sat neatly in the base's mess hall. At this moment, they resembled well-behaved children, their eyes revealing their appreciation for this rare moment of relaxation. A festive atmosphere permeated the mess hall, with colorful ribbons and balloons adorning every corner, and soft music flowing gently in the air, as if whispering the warmth of this special night.

After the steaming hot food was served, Chen Jun walked into the canteen, looked at everyone with a gentle gaze, and said, "Eat up. After you finish eating, you'll have a day off tonight. Get a good night's sleep." This was the only holiday they had received in three months. Hearing Chen Jun's words, the team members present were immediately excited, and their previously tense bodies completely relaxed.

They eagerly picked up their chopsticks and began eating quickly. However, before they had taken more than a few bites, one of the team members suddenly stopped, making a "whoosh" sound, his expression extremely strange...

"There's something wrong with this food..." someone said with a strange expression.

“Yes, I tasted it too, it’s poisonous…” Another soldier, looking astonished, took another bite of the food. “Yes, this taste…”
