Chapter 1545:

It was the recruits’ first encounter with the vipers, and their panic was evident. Their movements were frantic, their knife strikes too slow, too clumsy. Within the first hour, more than a dozen soldiers had been bitten.

Though the female soldiers tried to remain cautious, they still faced the immense challenge of striking at the vipers’ weak points while keeping an eye out for any nearby snakes. Their focus was razor-sharp, but even so, exhaustion crept in, and after an hour, they were nearly spent.
