Chapter 1242 - Special Welcoming CeremonyChapter 1242: Special Welcoming Ceremony
Ye Jian, who was preparing to disembark, thanked the lieutenant colonel who sent her off. Then, she clutched the waterproof backpack issued by the Navy Equipment Department and went straight into the water from the stern of the lightweight special warship.
“Do you see the red laser dot flashing on the reef? Someone is already waiting for you. Just swim over directly.” The Navy Lieutenant Colonel who had made connection to the skerry half-squatted and smiled at the female soldier whose face was only the size of his palm and eyes who were as bright as the stars. “It’s less than 30 meters away. Just swim over directly.”
The lightweight special warships were different from air-cushioned landing crafts. The ship could not reach the skerry which did not have a harbor and could only stop at a sea level that the draft allowed.
Ye Jian was thrown forward by a wave the moment she came down. She only managed to wave her hand and swam towards the skerry.

After all, she had also trained at the beach for a month, but she did not train as systematically as the water ghosts.
The tiger on land was the “Snow Region Brigade”, and the dragon in the sea was the “Storm Commando Unit”. As a reserve member of the Snow Region Brigade, Ye Jian entered the sea dragon’s territory. Xia Jinyuan reminded her to be vigilant when she entered the water, in case there was a special welcoming ceremony.
Once Big Whale entered the sea, it was like a dragon returning to the sea. Every day, his feet were tied with sandbags as he made a 5,000-meter cross-country run. Every week, he would swim 5,000 meters twice. His feet had extremely powerful water-breaking abilities. The speed at which he swam 200 meters with just a few breaststrokes was definitely not something one could imagine.
By the time Ye Jian swam to the surface, the lightweight special warship had already left. Their destination was not the skerry, but they needed to pass through Li Jinnian’s training ground.
As the lightweight special warship left, Ye Jian, who was drenched, carried her backpack and swam towards the shore.
Four years of training allowed Ye Jian to remain calm even when facing the unpredictable and dangerous sea. Listening to the sound of the waves, she moved her hands and swam towards the shore at a moderate speed.
After swimming for about five meters, Ye Jian’s calm gaze suddenly turned sharp. She looked at the sea surface that was about three meters away from her left... She has been targeted by a “water ghost”!
Fighting in the waters was her weakness, so it would be troublesome if she was targeted. But, just as Captain Xia said, it suited Li Jinnian’s style!
Big Whale was surprised when Ye Jian’s gaze landed on him. His eyes narrowed and he smiled.

However, being sharp was not enough. He still needed to see her reaction speed underwater. Compared to on land, her reaction speed underwater was several times more demanding!
As the ancient Roman politician Cicero pointed out, “Whoever rules the waves rules the world.” From this, one could see the importance of a nation’s control over the ocean, and from this, one could see how strict the frogmen commando unit was on their members’ physical fitness.
Big Whale was a qualified water ghost who had undergone strict and systematic training. As a soldier trained by the army to become an all-round Special Forces, Ye Jian had lost the upper ground to fight Big Whale in the water.
But it wouldn’t be a reason for Ye Jian to back down.
She took off her inflatable backpack at the fastest speed, drew her dagger, and faced the “water ghost” who was grabbing her ankle.
