Monster Among Recruits

...

Early the next morning.

The recruits finished breakfast, and after morning exercise, they dressed neatly in military uniforms and gathered in the square.

However, the training officer wasn't Chief Brandt, but another strong and tall middle-aged officer. The skin of the American was tanned with bronze and had muscles like a bear full of a murderous aura.

"Sir Brandt is off duty for today and let me take the class for recruit combat training. My name is Joseph Kingsley, just call me Instructor Joseph." The substitute class instructor said loudly.

"Understood!" The recruits responded in unison.

"By the way, the star rookie soldier from yesterday's competition will be joining the team." Instructor Joseph asked with a little interest, and now the eyes of the recruits all turned to Kyle in the second row, while Steve looked nervously at his friend.

"Soldier Kyle, step forward!" Instructor Joseph said, and Kyle walked out of the team with military steps.

"Your pistol shooting yesterday was impressive." Instructor Joseph praised halfway, and the conversation changed, "But just being a sharpshooter won't make you a real soldier, if you want to be an excellent American soldier, it's still a long way to go! If you are approached by an enemy, you can be killed with a single bullet!"

It seems to be to suppress my arrogance.

Kyle secretly complained, but asked humbly, "I wonder if Instructor Joseph can show me in person this skill you are talking about."

Naked provocation!

The scalps of the recruits behind Kyle were tingling.

Instructor Joseph's heartfelt secretly angry. No wonder Chief Brandt was acting so strange. This recruit is too bold!

Instructor Joseph laughed instead of being angry and said cheerfully: "Very good, then I'll show you what it means to be close to death."

"What should I do if I accidentally hurt you, the instructor," Kyle asked worriedly.

"Spar without worries, this is an order!" Instructor Joseph waved his hand, motioning for Kyle to do it first.

"Instructor is too kind," Kyle said with a faint smile.

"Start!" A referee yelled with a pistol shot.

As soon as the words fell, Kyle had already moved, he was a few steps away within a single breath. He clenched his fists with both hands, and used a green military boxing fighting skill!

[Military Boxing Fighting Mastery]: Master the practical boxing methods used in the military, focusing on the close-quarters game of boxing. Green Ability Card.

As soon as the fight started, Joseph could not find Kyle and thought he ran off. Instructor Joseph did not expect that Kyle had mastered military boxing perfectly, he could only temporarily defend Kyle in a hurry. Unfortunately, the instructor was being hit over and over.

Kyle doesn't care how big his rank is, Kyle doesn't do anything fancy. A set of military boxing fight techniques are smooth, and he was using instructor Joseph as a training sandbag by sending non-stop punches and kicks.

'Impressive!'

'Still, it's a shame!' Joseph's face changed slightly, and he felt that the eyes of the recruits on the field had changed. Because the instructor is also proficient in military boxing fighting skills, he parried back Kyle's boxing, but on the surface, it seemed that Joseph was pressuring Kyle.

"Are you finished tickling me? You can't fight on a battlefield if you only learn military boxing!"

"Sure enough, there is something I am missing." Kyle breathed heavily while trying to resist the opponent's attack, and focusing on Instructor Joseph's ability card.

[Military Boxing Fighting Mastery], [Endurance Fighting Mastery], [Counterattack Fighting Mastery], [True Fitness]——

There are four green cards for a single physical exercise instructor! There is also a shining green rare card in it!

'It's no wonder that he can counteract me so quickly after falling behind.' Kyle's eyes brightened, and his mind began to extract the cards from the instructor.

The extraction radius for green ability cards is within one meter of the body and needs to be read continuously for three minutes.

This is the real purpose of Kyle wanting to fight with the instructor. There is no better close-up reason than training.

Kyle was still at a disadvantage, but he was stubbornly resisting. Joseph couldn't land a finishing blow for a while. He wanted to stop, but just as his body relaxed, Kyle only started hitting harder with his military boxing.

"Soldier, do you want to force this instructor to hurt you?"

Instructor Joseph gritted his teeth, but Kyle seemed to be getting more and more vigorous the more he fought, just pestering him to continue fighting.

After three minutes, the [Counterattack Fighting Mastery] was successfully drawn.

Kyle felt a special heat emanating from his body, increasing his physique, and at the same time, he mastered the skills of counterattack fighting as if he had practiced it for more than ten years.

"This fight is over!" Instructor Joseph clenched his fists and knocked Kyle to the ground, but Kyle got back up and stared at the instructor with emerald eyes on his sweaty face.

'Counterattack technique! Military Boxing Style!'

Kyle, who has received the green card, continues to narrow the gap with the instructor, allowing this battle that was about to end, time to continue.

Instructor Joseph and Kyle were fighting together for a few minutes now. No one could win, it was up to anyone for a while.

"Captain-level fighting!"

The recruits on the side were stunned, and the continuous melee combat also attracted more troops from the training plaza and soon surrounded the two of them in three circles.

"What happened over there?" Detective Carter, who was passing by, saw this scene and asked the officer who was rushing over there doubtfully. The officer spread his hands and replied helplessly: "A recruit is training in close combat with Joseph in a fight."

"Joseph?" Carter opened her lips slightly in surprise.

"Yeah, Joseph, a training instructor specializing in CQC fighting." The officer smiled bitterly, "I don't know how the recruit did it, but he lasted under Joseph's hands for nearly ten minutes."

"What's the name of the recruit?" Carter opened the document book in his hand.

"Kyle Kell, recruit."

...

The card drawing was successful.

[True Fitness Physique]: Maintaining your own strong and superior body will make you healthier than ordinary people, and improve certain endurance and physical strength. Muscle fibers repair quicker than normal. Green rare ability card.

"Success."

Kyle gasped, sweat-soaked his military uniform, the last physique-like ability was in his hand. Although the power to improve his physique more dramatically flowed into his body, the soreness and fatigue were deeply carved in his muscles. His aches were too much for his newly strengthened body and weak mind.

It felt like he was fighting while being half-asleep in an oven. Suddenly he jumped back and walked backward. Instructor Joseph continued chasing him forward with a low growl. Kyle suddenly raised his hands, "Okay. I'm running out of strength, I surrender."

"Huh?" Instructor Joseph was also panting and covered in sweat. At the last moment, he stopped his fist in front of Kyle's nose, and said with a straight face, "No way? Why?"

"As expected of an instructor, you are stronger in strength, speed, and fighting skills. As a recruit I admit defeat. If you hadn't been going easy, I'm afraid I would have lost my arms and legs as a soldier." Flattery is given to the winning party.

'This guy is too strong for the current me. When I get stronger I can kill him if I get the ability of any of the future Avengers easily.' Kyle thought with a smile on his head.

"You bastard." Instructor Joseph scolded, and then sat on the ground tiredly no matter how many people were watching, "I did go easy at first, but then I was serious about it. Not to mention, soldier, your fighting talent is the first I have seen in the twenty years in the army, and it is already an absolute monster level."

During the ten-minute battle, Instructor Joseph felt that Kyle was slowly learning from him, and his melee skills were copying his movements. How could he not be surprised?

"Well, I'll practice again with you when I have time in the future." Instructor Joseph said with a smile, he liked soldiers who were so quick to learn his fighting skills.

"No problem." Kyle nodded while thinking about getting Joseph's skills. In addition to the three physique cards drawn just now, Instructor Joseph also had a few other green ability cards.

"You soldiers—" Instructor Joseph raised his eyebrows and looked around, roaring directly: "What are you looking at, don't you need to train?! Do you all also want to train with me one-on-one!"

'We're not monsters like Kyle.' Thought the soldiers.

The recruits who were watching didn't dare to answer and ran off thinking about the sparring match.

Kyle started leaving while pondering something.

'I think I'll grab Carter's ability cards by getting close to her and then dump her.'

'Sorry, Steve....'
