Untouchable: Reaper of the Battlefield

The first training is over.

The exhausted volunteers spread across the white sand. But the vows led to fallen comrades.

“Staying still makes it harder to withstand hypothermia. Let's all run together! ”

Instead of resting like honey, I was reluctant to run around in my heavenly body. However, as some people ran, the rest of them started running reluctantly.

Other participants, who were lying on the white sand and relaxing, were puzzled by the group of vows.

The instructor looked at the vow group in a surprised look.

You know, it's a lot harder than being hypothermic, but it's a lot better to keep yourself moving. ’

The instructor's eyes were fixed on the Eastern people shouting oldies at the center of the group.

* * *

Adapting to the U.S. military in the vow was easy, except that the language was not fluent.

This is because Korean military uniforms and training systems were brought back from the United States. Because of this, the training course of the Seal Instructor was bright in his mind.

As the instructor said, it was true that the vows conspicuously gathered other participants. For yourself.

A vow to look at the logs arriving at the beach to be carried by the truck frowns.

‘You're treating me like a real recruit, damn it. ’

It was a log I had heard boredly through the ROK and the US military.

The volunteers struggle without even screaming properly. Especially the taller one.

The groaning was all I could hear.

“Lift over your head with all your might! If it's hard, the centrifugal force makes it harder. ”

The movement of lifting and lowering over 100 kg of logs in the sand field, which is hard to center because of my feet, caused me to come to hell. Especially for groups with high key differences, it caused even more pain.

There was no mercy on the instructor. He approaches the group in distress and shouts.

“The dropping group is all out! ”

Volunteers gripped and endured it. Over time, however, a group of loggers began to emerge from their hands.

At first, it was quite easy, but over time, the group of vows was also difficult.

“Listen. Hang in there! ”

I hit a similar key, but it wasn't perfect. This is because Logged PT is a system that weighs just as much as someone else when they lose power.

I couldn't help but wish for the perfect teamwork for the first people I met yesterday.

The oath at the front of the line grips without realizing that the balance of the log is completely tied to him. The heavy pressure on the arms and back caused tremendous pain, even with difficulty breathing properly.

“Ugh... Ugh!!! ”

A groan came out of the door.

The deltoid and trapezius muscles on the shoulders seemed to burst in pain, and the spine seemed to break while holding on to the weight of the log.

My legs twisted and my lower back started to burn.

It was the first and worst pain I felt since I came back alive.

A great deal of temptation found him.

What the hell are you doing here? ’

‘Take the easy way. Why do you bring this on yourself? ’

‘Use the Inner Force. This weight is nothing. ’

The vow shakes firmly.

It's impossible to just sit back and do this.

Compared to the pain experienced there, this is not even on the needle's axle right now.

As the posture began to crumble, the vows grasped the remaining strength.

Even though I was running low on strength and would lose my strength and miss the log, his pride did not allow me to collapse.

< Splash! >

With the sound of teeth grinding, the back of the collapsing vow began to stretch.

At that moment, I felt my vows brighten my mind.

* * *

Emit Kaya from Nepal did not know what to use those logs for.

When the instructor instructed me to lift the log, I was as surprised as everyone else.

Everyone worked together, but even the logs were hard to lift.

I put the log on my shoulder with difficulty, but the instructor's instructions are not finished.

“Stick the log over my head according to my wishes. One!”

It was terrible to lift the log overhead and move it to the other shoulder.

I couldn't even afford to look around. I didn't move it a few times, but I was out of breath.

I was confident about how much my heart was beating. I could do it with a few days of ambush while killing my breath. But this wasn't it.

As Emit Kaya's strength ran out, the weight he had to carry spread around.

The weight that was transferred around was directed at one person over time.

In Kaya, Nepal has no oceans. He was also assigned to the Army when he came to England, so the sea was an unknown object to him.

Had it not been for the vows, he would probably have been confused by hypothermia by now. Knowing that, Kaya wanted to help her vow. But standing still was a miracle, and he was exhausted.

The instructor's voice struck my ear.

“The group that dropped the log is all gone! ”

What if we fall from here?

I know he hires a lot of mercenaries in the United States, but he doesn't have the money to buy a plane ticket.

The log on your shoulder is much heavier. I felt the back of the person who had stood firm with him a little while ago start to collapse....

“I can't... do it... ”

Kaya, who was so small and so malnourished, was unable to withstand the pressure put on her body.

The scene in front of my eyes distorted and my legs twisted.

Then a miracle happened.

The back of the person in front of him, who was bent over, slowly began to straighten again.

Along with him, the log, which was pressing Kaya's body, begins to lift up gradually.

* * *

Dropping Logs does not remove them.

It's just a threat to squeeze the power out of volunteers.

Following pressure to cover up weakbones that cause muscle spasms of this degree.

All but one group dropped the log from their hands.

“That was a great strategy. ”

One of the instructors applauded the rest of the vow group.

At that moment, you can see the log leaning and the weight suddenly shifting forward.

At the same time, I saw the vows staggering.

You can hold a 100kg barbell overhead, but everyone knows that logs are impossible because of the center of gravity.

Everyone also knows that the center that starts to collapse once in Rogue PT is never reversible.

After a while, everyone was astonished at the sight of the reversal of the thought of impossible.

The sighing Asian overcame the overwhelming weight of his own body.

“That's a lot of strength. ”

“Can that be done by force alone? With all that tiredness? ”

“How did you do that? ”

Leader of the Instructor who watched this. A bell rings in the head of SAS sniper and yarn native Andrew Yates.

‘He's dangerous. ’

There are very few volunteers who exceed an instructor's competence.

If you treat them wrong, the instructor is embarrassed. To stop the situation, Andrew Yates spoke to the radio.

“Field Instructors, be on the lookout for Candidate 60! ”

* * *

When it was time for a break, the vow tightened his fist and repeatedly withdrew.

The Inner Force was intact, but I felt a tremendous difference. Seowon thought, looking at his hands.

What was that? ’

I didn't draw the Inner Force, but suddenly I developed an unknown power.

It was different from the Runner's High that Marathoners felt when they crossed physical limits.

Runner's High feels at ease in a dying state, but he has a power that he didn't have a moment ago.

"Was there any strength left to me that wasn't working? ’

‘Has the potential not been expressed been demonstrated by strength? ’

I thought deeper and deeper.

‘All functions of the human body are related to the brain. ’

It reminds me of a magazine article I read a while ago.

‘It is said that vision has been restored by simple brain training conducted on elderly people with poor vision. It is said that the function of retinal astrocytes was not restored, but as a result of enhanced brain function interpreting visual information. Maybe... maybe...... all the physical effort I've made has been to train the brain responsible for it? ’

Someone tapped him on the shoulder. But I couldn't feel the vows that were stuck in my mind.

‘Perhaps the ultimate goal of all those practices there was to train the brain? ’

The lower stomach tickles. A little more focus and you'll realize something important.

However, the concentration of vows did not last. Someone grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him hard.

“You don't know what you're calling me? ”

“Ah!”

Sadness swallowed a vow.

Kaya, who interpreted the sadness in a different way, reached out to the vow.

“Thank you so much for earlier. This is Emit Kaya. I'm from Nepal.”

The benefit of vows is that no matter how much you miss your chance, you won't regret the past.

Seowon shakes his head once, expressing his regret and reaching out his hand.

“Seowon Jung. Korean American.”

Seowon smiles, looking at the Oriental with messy skin holding his hand.

“Why is the Gorkhā here? ”

Instead of the word 'gurka,' which is commonly used, Kaya's expression was illuminated by the word 'gorka,' which people say in their hometown.

“Why are you here? I'm here to be a mercenary. ”

“Why is someone here who should be in the British Regular Army? ”

Kaya looks up at Seowon's face. Question He answered, knowing that no impurities were added to the intent of the question.

“I got kicked out for discrimination. ”

“Ah…! ”

In one word, discrimination, vows were able to guess many things.

In the 1800s, the British army, which tried to take Nepal over the Himalayan Mountains, met the Gurka warriors who used the Gouldo 'Kukri' weapon and was incredibly classic. After that, the British occupation of Nepal forced these brave men to join their armies.

Famous mercenaries from World War I, World War II, the Korean War and the Falkland War are paid much less than regular British troops. In addition, there is an indisputable discrimination in terms of welfare and promotion. It is a dark section of the UK that everyone claims to be equal.

There are a lot of anecdotes about Gurka Mercenaries that only hold one sword and there's nothing to be afraid of in the world.

Taking on 40 solo or imploring the prisoners not to hand them over to the Gurka mercenaries alone...

Through his experience, Seowon learned that the courageous anecdotes contain some exaggeration. But at least they knew their courage wasn't a lie. No 1g of seasoning was added to the anecdotes about their courage to throw themselves for colleagues on the battlefield.

Seowon looks into Kaya's eyes.

It was a clear eye with the purity and innocence of Nepalese character.

When I see an opportunity, I don't hesitate. If they think they can leave their backs, they will chase them to the ends of the earth. In the army, it was the way vows made a man in the service of mercenaries.

“I finally have a bed in my room. Would you mind staying in my room? ”

Kaya smiles brightly at the motel where she slept with cockroaches.

“Gather round! This is a Dump Boat! ”

Due to the large voice of the instructor, the conversation between the two could not continue.

* * *

The instructor's prophecy that more than half of the volunteers would quit was not false.

Twenty-one people left the training ground in just two days.

He kept ten when only the group of vows began.

“Do you see a boat ready on the white sand? From now on, we will dive into the sea. ”

The purpose of dump boats is to withstand physical limitations and develop teamwork with colleagues by:

1. Lift the rubber boat up like a log PT, making the volunteers exhausted.

2. Flip the rubber boat over the sea, put it in its place, and then row back onto the boat.

3. Compete between groups.

But the biggest goal of dump boats is to overcome fear.

No matter how much you wear a life vest, the feeling of not being able to keep yourself together in the rushing waves terrifies you.

Salted water comes from the open mouth and nostrils, and the body freezes because of cold water like ice. The goal of this exercise is to overcome this extreme situation.

The vows, which I did not like the training, bowed their heads. Dump boats. It was too obvious.

‘How long do we have to continue this meaningless training? ’

Then the instructor said something interesting.

“If you are a candidate who thinks this training is meaningless to you, come forward now. Candidates deemed qualified are exempt from training. ”

Eight participants stepped forward.

“Anyone who wants to avoid training with an open water credential will be disqualified! Don't move unless it's a minimum instructor. ”

All but two participants returned to their seats.

Then the vow that happened in place slowly walked forward.

Everyone's gaze was drawn to the vows.
