Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 184

Eddie slowly rose from the bushes, looking like he'd just crawled out of a grimy mine.

Lost and confused, he walked towards the four girls.

Hearing footsteps, Eileen opened her eyes, and to her surprise, it was Eddie.

She immediately sat up and anxiously asked, "Where have you guys been? I've been looking everywhere for you!"

Eddie, like a laborer returning home after a long time, was moved to tears.

He choked up, "You were looking for us?"

Eileen replied, "Yes, I've been looking for you guys. Did you see Egbert?"

Eddie was speechless.

He paused, looking bewildered, before asking, "Didn't Mr. Reed leave already?"

Eileen didn't respond. She turned her gaze to the other three men behind Eddie, "What about you guys? Did you see Egbert?"

The three men were stunned, looking at each other before shaking their heads in unison.

Eileen frowned, looking displeased.

Meanwhile, the cans on the fire were smelling pretty good.

The aroma was making everyone's mouth water.

Eddie no longer cared about Mr. Reed, he mumbled, "I'm starving..."

Eileen glanced at him and generously said, "Since you guys are here, let's eat together."

The four men were starving and were thrilled to hear this!

Eileen opened the supplies bag and took out two packs of compressed biscuits, one for the boys and one for the girls.

Eddie didn't want the biscuits, he wanted the warm canned food. So, he walked towards the fire.

But to his surprise, Eileen was already by the fire, eating the canned food with gusto, clearly not planning to share.

Eddie and the other three men were speechless.

Edna and the other two girls, however, were unfazed. They skillfully opened their biscuits and started eating.

The four men looked at their biscuits, feeling a bit wronged.

But they had no choice. They had to follow the girls' lead and started eating their biscuits.

After Eileen finished her canned food, she looked up and found that the others had also finished eating.

She stood up and said, "Let's get ready and continue searching the mountain."

"Searching the mountain?" The men looked puzzled. "Why are we searching the mountain?"

Eileen declared righteously, "Of course, to wipe out the rebel organization. I am determined to eliminate all the pursuers!"

As soon as she said this, one of the "bodies" in the pile of "corpses" rolled their eyes and grumbled, "Haven't we already been wiped out by you? You killed all fifty of us, remember?"

Eileen replied grumpily, "You're already dead, stop talking!"

The "corpse" huffed in frustration but stopped talking.

Eddie figured it out and mumbled, "No wonder we didn't see any pursuers when we came out... If they're all dead, who are we searching for?"

Eileen solemnly said, "The leader of the pursuers."

Another "corpse" couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, "We already told you, we don't have a leader! We don't know Mr. Reed! We were just ordered to chase after you guys! We had no strategy, no plan, this was just a small test!"

Eileen shot at the "corpse".

The "corpse", having already "died" once and unable to "die" again, was very cocky and yelled, "I'm telling the truth!"

Eileen ignored them. She turned to the others and ordered, "Get up, we're wasting time!"

Eileen insisted on leading everyone to search for Egbert.

She firmly believed that there must be a leader. She couldn't accept that there wasn't one!

At eleven o'clock at night.

Eileen squatted on the ground and muttered, "Maybe there really isn't a leader..."

The other seven people stared at her blankly.

Before midnight, Eileen, albeit reluctantly, led the seven people to the meeting point within the designated time.

The staff of the show and the members of the Air Force Battalion were all there.

The moment the door opened, all eyes were on Eileen.

Eileen pretended not to notice and looked away.

Regardless, all eight of them managed to escape within the time limit and passed the test, that was a fact.

The battalion commander didn't say much. It was already late, and everyone was exhausted.

He ordered a car to pick them up and take them to the Air Force Battalion's dormitory.

Eileen spent the night in the dormitory and was woken up by the assembly bell the next morning.

After training with the Land Force Battalion, the celebrity guests were no longer late for training.

The morning exercise at the Air Force Battalion was similar to that at the Land Force Battalion, it was a morning run.

Eileen ran two laps before a trainer singled her out, "Eileen, step out."

Eileen jogged up to the trainer and stood at attention with her hands behind her back.
