Lin Mo stood on the edge of the training ground, watching the sunset dye the Gobi desert blood red.
He is the deputy captain of the "Sharp Sword" special forces. He has served in the army for 12 years and has participated in 17 cross-border secret operations. He has four gunshot wounds and a scar extending from his left shoulder to his ribs. At this moment, he had just completed a ten-kilometer cross-country trip with a weight of 30 kilograms. His training clothes were soaked with sweat and clung to his strong body.
