2990 Pain
It was naturally painful to cut off the fabric that stuck to the wounds. It was equivalent to tearing open the scab again.

Ye Jian endured the pain. The wounds were still alright. There were friction wounds around the main injury. In the middle of her knees were dime-sized blunt wounds. They were a little inflamed, and the surroundings were red and swollen.

Cleaning, disinfecting, bandaging… Xia Jinyuan handled everything alone. Li Jinnian looked at the wounds and felt much more at ease. He kept massaging Ye Jian’s calf muscles with his hands. Every time he massaged, Ye Jian endured the pain. It was even more painful than getting her wounds treated.

“You just need to relax your muscles. It’s very easy for your muscles to get tired now.” When Li Jinnian saw this, he didn’t relax his grip. Instead, he massaged harder. After a while, Ye Jian felt that her calf muscles were as hot as if they were being roasted by a fire. It was really painful but also enjoyable.

Both knees were injured in the same spot. Xia Jinyuan quickly treated the wounds and bandaged them. Then, he massaged Ye Jian’s muscles with Li Jinnian. When they reached the spot above the knees, Li Jinnian handed the task to Xia Jinyuan.

At this moment, Ye Jian didn’t feel awkward anymore. It was just a massage, so it was fine. Xia Jinyuan didn’t touch her inner thighs.

He couldn’t apply any ointment on Ye Jian and could only massage her legs with his hands. She focused her attention on the topographic map again and combined it with the large map in her memory seriously. After confirming that her deduction was correct, her slender fingers slid across the simple topographic map given by the control station. She said firmly, “This is right. This is the correct route.”

Ye Jian said that passing through the last swamp was the correct route. No one doubted her deduction.

After the map in their hand was ‘snatched’ the night before, it was all thanks to the large map that Ye Jian had memorized in her mind that they could still make it this far. Coupled with the topographic map given by the control station when they received the mission, Ye Jian’s deduction wouldn’t be wrong.
The imaginary enemies that appeared the night before came for the map. The rules clearly stated that the map could only be carried by the captain. After Xia Jinyuan saw their intention, he resisted symbolically before handing over the map so that he could conserve his energy for the next battle.

Ye Jian had already memorized the map in her mind. It didn’t matter if they had a primitive map or not.

As expected, every time she received a mission from the control station and received a topographic map, Ye Jian would be able to accurately find the correct route.

Now that she said that the swamp was the only correct route for China, who would question it?

Ye Jian’s legs relaxed. She didn’t let Xia Jinyuan massage her anymore. Instead, she massaged his legs to relax them. They had been helping each other along the way and didn’t feel that there was a need to avoid suspicion.

Xia Jinyuan said, “There are only three courses left. The last one is to attack the base. The first four teams to reach the base are the main defenders. We don’t know our rank now. We might be the main defenders or the main attackers.”

“Whether it’s the main defender or the main attacker, we’ll have to face the SFS border defense soldiers. They’re very hostile toward us now. Be careful when we meet.”

“We’ll be drawing lots. We’re also allowed to use cold weapons. We’ll have to be careful. Blades have no eyes. If you get injured, you can only surrender.”

The finals between the soldiers of the various countries were coming soon.
