Eight days later, only seventeen people were brought out alive from the forest. Besides Xiaofan and the other two, everyone else looked pale and dispirited, their eyes bloodshot.

The simultaneous mental and physical blows gradually made them accept the Red Butterfly's indoctrination. This training method is certainly cruel, but it is very effective.

"Seventeen? So few? Let them rest for three days and then start basic training again. Don't torture them to death; I'm short of people here."

"Yes, boss."

"By the way, how are Black Mantis and Caterpillar doing?"

"They're completely fine, and when they came out, they even brought a young guy. These two are pretty strong."

"Did they kill anyone?"

"Yes, fifteen people died at their hands. In the last two days, everyone without pills targeted them, and nine died at once."

"Looks like this training is child's play for them. Alright, keep a close watch, and continue reporting to me about anything. In three months, I want these seventeen people back here working for me."

"Yes, boss."

Although only seventeen survived, many newcomers were brought in from other places, and they seemed to have endured special training and survived.

After passing that stage, these people are basically backup members for the Red Butterfly.

How many people are in this training base is something Xiaofan hasn't determined, but at least not less than two hundred. Such a scale is not much less than last year's new recruits for Yanhuang Soul. No wonder after so long, Yanhuang Soul still hasn't been able to do much against Red Butterfly, and excellent assassins from Red Butterfly keep appearing endlessly.

Zhu Fan once said that as long as there is money, he can create any kind of master, because with money, you can have everything.

The following training seems more normal, though normal only compared to surviving in the forest.

Training in physical abilities and skills is also grueling. They need to produce a group of excellent combat members in these three months, using any method to make these people grow quickly.

Every group has a phased training, even Li San complains all the time through it.

Wang Ziyang seems to be sticking to Xiaofan and Li San, living and eating with them, not leaving their side. To him, everyone else is too dangerous; only these two are trustworthy.

This is an unusual change. As qualified assassins, they can't afford to trust anyone. There's mutual vigilance, and normally, it's impossible to have any kind of exchange.

"Mantis, how long do we have to stay here? I'm bored to death with nothing around."

"Be patient."

"I told you from the start not to act with you, it's gotten me killed."

"You're pretty slick."

"Even if you keep flattering me, I'm still going to complain. Meanwhile, I'm sure Ren Ying and the others are enjoying good food and drink, maybe even having girls accompany them at night. Why did I agree to you in the first place?"

"The capable do more work."

"You... alright, even though you keep telling these harsh truths, I'm still not happy. What are you doing?"

"Migratory Bird Signal Device, parts just stolen from the command center. We don't have any communication equipment here, but this base must be destroyed."

"Destroyed? No way. You want Huaxia's planes to drop bombs on this place? What about me then?"

"Of course not now. I'll let Li Kuo record the coordinates first, and when the time is right in the future, this place won't escape."

Xiaofan had already made full plans; such a place shouldn't exist. The training facilities are comparable to Yanhuang Soul's, including a bullet-dodging training hall. Before finding Red Butterfly's headquarters, let's allow this place to stay for a while.

"Alright, let's go."

Saying this, the two quickly returned to their dormitory. This kind of signal device can evade interference. Li Kuo's invention is truly remarkable.

In the dormitory, Wang Ziyang was startled awake by nightmares at midnight, saw the two just returning, was full of confusion, but didn't ask and instead laid back down to sleep. He's smart enough to know some things should not be asked.

At the same time, inside a large truck belonging to XG.

"Brother Han, I received the signal sent back by Xiaofan."

"Oh? Where?"

"Wait a second. Cambodia? How could it be here."

"Did he say anything?"

"No messages at all; this kind of signal device can only do positioning, not communication," Li Kuo said casually.

"What do we do then? Is it a distress signal?" Han Shengjun asked urgently.

"No, I told him before, if it's a distress signal, he should use a triple-flash frequency. But this is just a normal flash. I'll mark it first. If Xiaofan needs us, he'll definitely have his way of contacting us."

"Alright. In that case, this is all the way in Cambodia? Could it be the Red Butterfly headquarters?" Han Shengjun asked again.

"Pointless guessing, wait for news. After all, he asked us to keep a close watch on Zhu Fan's movements, looks like we're in for a long haul."

"Then, can I go for drinks tonight?" Han Shengjun smiled slightly.

"Sure, just keep your phone on."

"Are you going?" Han Shengjun asked again.

"Not going," Li Kuo said faintly.

"Your phone can connect to a computer, right? If there's any news from Xiaofan, you can know first-hand as well. If you keep staying like this, you might really become suffocated. If you need a woman, I can turn a blind eye, don't worry, I won't tell my sister."

"Hmm? Are you a real brother?"

"Of course, but I'm also a man, I know what men want."

"Nope, not in the mood. Let's talk about it after this business is over." Li Kuo really wasn't in that mood.

"Relax when you need to, c'mon." Han Shengjun seemed determined to drag Li Kuo along.

"Brother Han..."

"Before Xiaofan left, he said not to let you suppress yourself so much. If you still want to marry my sister, get out more, don't be like a sick man after leaving Yanhuang Soul. Let's go..."

Xiaofan's specific instructions before leaving. Among these brothers, Li Kuo is who he feels most at ease about. Facing an old enemy with burning rivalry, searching tirelessly for news about Red Butterfly, surely he would wear himself out.

In preparation for the coming battle, everyone must maintain their best state.
