Chapter 1885 Let The Competitions Begin!

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The Great Boss was at it again. Every canine stood at rapt attention, as the majestic Boss stood beside Landon, giving out its speech. And despite the smaller statutes of the dog recruits who had long marched into center field and were now standing at attention, each and every one of them had eyes that burned with determination for success and recognition. Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof~

Boss began his cold speech. "Today will be the day we put your training to the test! Are you DOGS or are you dogs… Those who pass, will be welcomed into the first day of the rest of your lives." Woo-woo-woof~

Landon inwardly laughed, finding the whole thing to be various. But for many in the military, they didn't think so, especially after witnessing what these dogs could do. Some of them were even better than human drivers, especially BOSS who once went out on a mission with 4 generals and 3 lieutenants. There, Boss alone dealt with 70% of difficulties they should have faced. Boss was an excellent tracker, excellent combat dog whose moves were swifter than any assassins. He could also predict dangers from nature, and was trained to never bark loudly when on missions, except if an enemy was invading their camp. On missions, you don't even hear a peep out of Boss, especially with his footsteps being light. Alright, let's forget about supernatural dogs like Boss. The other dogs trained here were also incredible. The things they did, and even their actions of pretending to be regular strays when out of missions was unbelievable to say the least. It was almost as though they could all understand human speech. But what these military soldiers and forces didn't know, was that because BOSS and his subordinates were supernatural (thanks to Landon), Boss and his gang took it upon themselves to teach several training dogs on how to understand humans. These dogs not only relied on intuition, hand signals, smell and all their senses, but could also identify patterns in human behavior. Again, they recognized human words and could put it together, getting a crude understanding of orders without anyone pointing or gesturing on what to do. Most times, humans have to pair both speech and actions to make a dog understand. You say sit, and you point for them to sit. You tell them to chase, and you point where you want them to go. But these dogs can understand and react without any silly gestures. In fact, in their eyes, gesturing to them what you meant was somehow saying they were redundant..

These dogs were indeed taught differently, so underestimating them would be a foolish inkling.

Even when out on missions, they can hear any words, piece them together and rush back to the humans to gesture what the enemies meant. How would these assassins ever imagine that their plans were leaked by mere dogs? You can be talking to your friend with your back facing these dogs and you will be able to hear everything completely!

They also trained these dogs to recognize the spellings of several major words, so that they can write it down with their paws on the ground when telling the humans what they heard. "Enemies… planning… killings.. tonight?" Good boy! What else did they say? For more details, the dogs typically gestured and even played dead to make their point.

Of course, they also memorized different gestures taught to them too. Just like they could now crudely understand human speech in all languages, it was very essential for humans to also understand these dogs. Humans and dogs were partnering here, so just as the dogs had to learn, the humans were also taught how to understand these dogs. Know that there were 7 entire courses made for understanding and communicating with military dogs..these courses were must-do courses that you take at least one training semester a year until you complete the 7th course. Some of these courses were theoretical and some were practical. Still, the tests for these courses were both theoretical and practical, regardless of whether a course was only theoretical. Indeed, it was incredible how much effort both man and dog put into working as a single unit. (^W^)

…

Woof! Woof!

The order was given, and the dogs quickly ran in teams towards the group of humans they had been assigned to.

There were 3 main tests… 1 will be conducted within the barrack itself, another will take place in a place called the Jungle of Trials, here in District B. It was a thick jungle area that spanned for miles and miles and was one of the testing sights used for both dog and human trainees. Most bridges faced this jungle too. During Brigade ranking days, soldiers from various brigades would thread through this vast jungle terrain, hoping to infiltrate each other's brigade's. The forest space was so large and wide, making room for stun grenades, explosives and whatnot to go out cashing a tumble in anyone's turf. There were cliffs, hills, trees, swamps, you name it. It almost looked as if one was outside Baymard in the jungle itself. Landon had left nature to grow to its coolest, never doing anything to disrupt mother nature's growth. For the final test which will be done on the 3rd day, these dogs will have to stay in another fenced forest area that by the way wasn't in District B. No~... That area was in District A, on the far opposite side of the Grand Baymardian Palace. There is a space there… an entire forest region that is fenced with towering walls. Sometimes, soldiers, Marines, the navy, and even police officers use that forest region to train. Landon was truly obsessed with Attack On Titan. The walls surrounded quite a vast landmass. And there were wild boars, rabbits, and several wild animals one could find during missions. The final test was of course, for these dogs to survive on their own for the next 5 days. They were never to attack each other, since they were all military comrades. …

Woof!!! The dogs barked when asked simple questions by the humans who were placing tracking collars around their necks. "Go!!!" The dogs scattered around the barracks in a blink of an eye, and now, everyone watching also scattered around, knowing they were all part of the elaborate first examination. Landon, the top military officials, Boss, and his own top dogs, all headed to the monitoring zone to watch it all unfold. Who do you think will come out on top? Grrr~... Boss growled in pride when seeing his children make their grand debut. And so it begins… (Woof woof woof…)
