Hearing Jaffa's confident words, Phillips couldn't help but feel even angrier. Perhaps it was his subjective consciousness. Perhaps it was because Jaffa had gone against Phillips 'wishes the first time they met. Phillips had always thought that Jaffa was the thorn among thorns.
Although he couldn't directly deal with Jaffa due to his status, Phillips was happy to hear that he could suppress Jaffa on some matters.
Hearing Jaffa's words, Phillips couldn't help but snort and say,"I want to see how this skinny shrimp will climb up the flagpole and take down the flag.”
As he spoke, Phillips 'eyes turned to the top of the flagpole not far away. The next moment, Phillips could not help but laugh out loud."Before that, Lieutenant Jaffa, you should think of a way to hang the flag up.”
Hearing Phillips 'words, Jaffa gently waved the flag in his hand and chuckled."Isn't that simple?" As he spoke, Jaffa walked towards the flagpole.
The conversation between Phillips and Jaffa had already attracted the attention of everyone in the assessment. Seeing Jaffa's actions, how could they not know that Jaffa was going to hang the flag on the flagpole? For a moment, everyone stared at Jaffa with bright eyes, ready to see how Jaffa would hang the flag.
Under everyone's gaze, Jaffa calmly walked to the front of the flagpole. He raised one hand to grab the flagpole, and with a sudden push of his arm, Jaffa's entire body rose. The next moment, Jaffa crossed his arms and quickly climbed to the top of the flagpole. With just his two arms, he actually climbed to the top of the flagpole in just half a minute.
Then, Jaffa locked the flagpole with both hands and hung the flag on the top of the flagpole. Throughout the entire process, Jaffa did not move at all, as if he and the flagpole were one.
At this moment, everyone was looking at Jaffa in shock, especially Zero. Zero, who had outstanding physical fitness, understood the difficulty of Jaffa's actions.
If the flagpole on the field was thinner and could be circled with one hand, Zero was confident that she could use Jaffa's method to climb up. At most, it would not be as easy as Jaffa's.
However, this flagpole was obviously not that thin. If it was a flagpole that could be circled with one hand, climbing up like Jaffa would only require the strength of the grip, wrist, and arm. However, the flagpole on the field could not be held with one hand. What was needed was the strength of the fingers, the grip, the wrist, and the arm. Moreover, the strength required was much more than that of a single-handed circle.
Although Phillips wasn't very strong, he had seen a lot of things. Seeing Jaffa's performance, he also understood that this wasn't something that ordinary people, or even ordinary special forces soldiers, could do. Thinking of this, Phillips 'anger towards Jaffa inexplicably dissipated by more than half. He even began to consider how to make Jaffa stay in his army forever.
In this regard, it had to be said that Phillips was definitely a typical American. No matter how much you offended me in the past, as long as you prove your ability, I can forget about the past and even put you in an important position. From this perspective, the rapid development of the United States was not without reason.
However, Jaffa did not know the change in Phillips 'opinion of him. After sliding down the flagpole, Jaffa waved at Steve, the only one who did not take the assessment, and said loudly,"Steve! It's your turn! Don't disappoint me!"
Hearing Jaffa's words, Steve chuckled and said nonchalantly,"Of course not. It's just a flag. I can hand it to you immediately.”
Then, under everyone's surprised gazes, Steve walked straight to the flagpole, squatted down, and pulled out the latch at the bottom of the flagpole. The set of actions was done in one go without any sloppiness.
As Steve stood up, the flagpole, which was difficult for most people, fell down. Then, with a relaxed expression, Steve walked up to the flag and calmly untied it, handing it to Jaffa.
Looking at the dumbfounded Phillips, Jaffa smiled proudly and said softly,"" The power of wisdom!"
Seeing Jaffa's smug look, Phillips, who had just changed his impression of Jaffa, couldn't help but burn with anger again. He stared into Jaffa's eyes and said word by word,"He's just taking advantage of the situation."
Hearing Phillips 'words, Jaffa raised his eyebrows and said indifferently,""I didn't say that this is not good. In fact, this is the correct way in my heart. Sir, you have to know that on the battlefield, it is necessary to cancel this kind of speculation and use the smallest price to obtain the most perfect result.”
Phillips 'expression froze. Jaffa was right. Steve's approach was indeed the best. At the thought of this, Phillips didn't know what to say. After thinking for a moment, Phillips could only snort coldly and run straight to the car to sit down.
Seeing this, Jaffa couldn't help but smile. He walked to another military vehicle, turned his head, and shouted,"Zero and Steve, come over. You can take the bus back to the base with me. As for the rest, run back and prepare for the second assessment.”
Twenty minutes after Jaffa and the others returned to the base, the rest of the soldiers began to return to the base one after another. Other than Zero and Steve who came back by car, all the soldiers were panting heavily. However, they still stood in formation and stood in front of Jaffa.
Sweeping his gaze across the crowd, Jaffa said,""Now, you have fifteen minutes to rest. After fifteen minutes, the second test will officially begin.”
As Jaffa spoke, everyone immediately sat down on the ground, their faces showing signs of fatigue.
Looking at the crowd, Jaffa revealed a wicked smile and walked to the military vehicle not far away.
Just as he walked to the car, Erskine's voice rang in Jaffa's ears."Lieutenant Jaffa, I have to say, you are really too bad.”
Hearing this, Jaffa couldn't help but look at Erskine in confusion.
Seeing Jaffa's expression, Erskine was stunned."If you let them rest for a mere fifteen minutes, it won't be enough to completely relieve their fatigue, but it can relax their spirits. I have to say, this team of soldiers is a pretty good test. "I just don't know what the content of your second test is. According to what you said before, it's a test of temperament. This makes me very curious.”
Hearing Erskine's words, Jaffa smiled and said helplessly,"Dr. Erskine, I have to say, you're overthinking it. As for the content of the second round of assessment, you will know it soon!”
Jaffa picked up a bomb from the military vehicle and pulled the pin. He turned to Erskine and said,"The second round of the assessment has officially begun!”After saying that, Jaffa threw the bomb in his hand at the people resting at the side. At the same time, he shouted,"Run! There's a bomb!"
