Chapter 146 Decision
More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was already mid-May.
In the training hall, Chen Chuan, wearing a green Wuyi training suit, sat on a cushion, using breathing techniques to guide the alienated tissues while also regulating his own state of mind.
During this period, he has been here to consolidate his achievements and has only returned to school once.
The company had already informed him of this, using the instructor's request as a pretext for his self-cultivation. As a Wu Yi student, this was of course his top priority. Ren Shu and the others understood and even sent him a few sets of training clothes and a few cans of fine tea, a generous favor.
After sitting for about three quarters of an hour, he slowly calmed down his breathing.
He has now gradually realized the impact of the secretions stimulated by the alienated internal organs on himself. This is actually one of the sources of a fighter's power. If it can be used well, it can also gain more powerful power under certain conditions. Therefore, the way to deal with it is not suppression, but self-regulation and surrender.
His previous Shocking Soul Fist was actually somewhat related to this, but at that time he had not yet developed a strong enough alienated tissue. Even ordinary people could use this technique, but with a strong alienated tissue, the effect would be different.
The simplest example is the alienation that Duma used that day, which is one of the methods of applying this kind of self-regulation, but it is a gamble and not worth learning.
However, some records from the old times have extremely rich experience in this regard, especially some religious scriptures, which describe this in great detail. He has also been reading materials on this subject recently. Putting aside those superstitious things, he is indeed very good at harmonizing the mind and communicating the inside and the outside.
However, the simplest and most brutal method is to use medication, but once you stop, it may cause various problems and rely more on logistics, so it is better to control it yourself.
After the meditation, he stood up and began to practice each move of Zheng San Shou in a methodical manner.
Although it still looks the same, this is only what appears on the outside. In fact, the movement of the internal alienated organization is no longer the same as before.
The original alienated fascia and skeleton, in conjunction with the alienated tissues of the internal organs, could allow for more subtle adjustments and variations in the power of each move, resulting in a rich and varied attack. However, this was only for routine practice, intended to stimulate the internal organs and promote the growth of the alienated tissues.
When actually entering into a battle, unless it is necessary, he will only allow the alienated organization to concentrate its strength and make itself faster in order to quickly finish off the enemy in front of him, whether it is one against one or one against many.
Now, when the same move is released, the power contained may be several times more than before, mainly because the strength and speed have been greatly enhanced. Coupled with the overlap of the second self, it is much stronger than the average person who has just entered the second limit.
If he were to face Duma again now, even if facing the final transformed Duma, he would be confident that he could end the battle within three moves and two styles.
After finishing the free-hand fighting practice, he picked up the Xuejun Sword and began to use the sword moves, also in order to allow his alienated tissue to adapt to the use of sword moves as quickly as possible.
After the day's training, he went to take a shower, returned to the second floor, sat down at the desk, reached out for the briefcase handed to him by the review team, took out the map inside, and spread it out on the desk.
His eyes first fell on the location of Yangzhi City, but as he moved up all the way and crossed Zhang Mountain, the sign that came into view was an endless wasteland, which was also the northernmost part of the Dashun territory.
Although Yangzhi City was formed during the great development period, it cannot be considered the frontier of Dashun, because at the top of the wasteland, at the easternmost end, there is a port city called Hangu City.
This is not a normal city, but a city where an unknown number of troops are stationed. It is usually connected to the inland through the railway that runs through the wilderness and the waterway on the northern ocean, and has almost no intersection with Yangzhi City.
But he knew that there was a military academy there, where his cousin Nian Qian joined the army and studied, so it was particularly difficult to travel back and forth, and news could only be delivered by telegram.
But this wasteland is not empty. It is filled with a large number of wanted criminals fleeing from the inland, smugglers and bandits who sneaked in from the sea, as well as members of resistance organizations and national wanted criminals.
Some people even escaped from giant companies and possessed certain technologies and channels. Some were spies and bounty hunters sent by overseas countries. There were even many overseas political prisoners. In addition, there were also some unknown secret cult organizations.
After some organizations banded together, they also established large and small forces in the wilderness and gathered underground information networks from all over the world. Compared with these people, the bandit gangs in the wilderness of Yangzhi City were nothing.
If this place was not at least two thousand kilometers away from Yangzhi City, and there was no water or plants in between, and if there was no threat from the army, the tentacles would have extended to Yangzhi City long ago.
This time, his assessment target is at the edge of this wasteland. Not only is the situation extremely complicated, but it also takes a lot of time to go back and forth.
In a place like this, it is almost impossible to think of checking in advance, and there is no one there to help him. Although it seems that there is still plenty of time now, in fact, part of the time is given to the students for advance and retreat preparations, so he does not have much time to delay.
He thought about it and realized that it was already mid-May. He decided to spend another half a month to consolidate his knowledge. He could not wait any longer and needed to take the assessment as soon as possible.
After thinking it over, he put the map away, locked the information in the safe, then went downstairs and rode his bike to school.
In less than half an hour, he returned to school. After parking his car, he walked towards the dormitory. However, as he stepped onto the stairs, he saw someone waiting there. When he saw him coming, his eyes lit up, and he walked over and greeted him, saying, "Xiaodi Chen, long time no see."
Chen Chuan recognized that this was his senior sister Min Lan who had invited him to dinner last time and wanted to recruit him into the client company. However, after he joined Ren Shu's company, she had not contacted him again.
He said, "Senior sister, it's been a long time since we last met."
Min Lan smiled and said, "Junior, I came here specifically to see you. I'll only keep you for a few minutes. Is that convenient for you?"
Chen Chuan was not in a hurry, and seeing that this person was waiting here specifically, as he had not been back for a while, he must have been looking for him for more than a day or two, so he said, "Then senior sister, let's talk by the lake." The boys' dormitory could not accommodate the other party, not to mention that this person had graduated a long time ago, so he had to find another place.
Min Lan happily said yes.
The two of them walked down the stairs, crossed the open space in front of the dormitory building, came to the edge of Chunqiu Lake, and walked along the trail of Chunqiu Lake.
Min Lan looked at the green willow trees by the lake and the shimmering water, and said, "I've been away from the academy for so long, and sometimes I miss the life back then. As long as you have enough ability and focus on training, you won't have so many worries."
After sighing, she turned around and said to Chen Chuan: "I am sorry for being so presumptuous this time, but the company I work for is currently facing a problem and is looking for a solution.
Time is tight for you, so I'll make it short. This problem comes from a larger commission, in which several companies are involved. It involves a secret sect, and we need to get something from this sect. We have previously arranged for many people to be sent in, but they always disappear or lose contact inexplicably.
Last time, our company spent a lot of money to recruit one of the members, but she lost contact that night. This reaction was too quick, and other companies also made no progress, so we think this may not be our problem, but the other party has some means.
Considering that they are a cult, there might be something beyond common sense, so we can only consult experts in this field, but so far no one has been able to explain it.
I figured that since Junior Chen often deals with ghost stories, he might know something about this, so I came here specifically to ask for your advice. If you could help us solve this, that would be great, and we're willing to pay you a reward that would satisfy you."
Chen Chuan thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Strange stories are strange stories, and cults are cults. The two cannot be confused."
Min Lan's eyes lit up. "So, classmate Chen knows about the cult, right?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "The flying head monsters I've dealt with are related to a very ancient flying head cult. I know a little about it, but that's all I know. Cults are different from each other. If it's not confirmed to be related to ghost stories, I can't give any effective answer."
"I see."
Min Lan nodded and thought for a moment. "Then we need to first determine the nature of this cult." She extended her hand and shook hands with Chen Chuan. "Sorry to bother you, junior. Anyway, thank you for today."
After saying goodbye to her, Chen Chuan thought for a moment. Speaking of cults, Director Lei of the Esoteric Cult Inspection Bureau must have known about them, but he couldn't possibly bother anyone else with this. Besides, if the news got out, other companies would get wind of it and come knocking. Most importantly, he needed to prepare for the assessment, and he didn't have time to deal with it right now.
I can only wish this senior sister good luck.
At this time, he took a look and because he was close to the administrative office building, he simply stopped going back to the dormitory and walked towards the office building.
After entering the building and arriving at Cheng Zitong's office, he saw the door was open and two people were talking to him. He waited outside for a while, and only walked in after the two people, who were obviously from other schools, left.
Cheng Zitong said, "You've been waiting for quite some time, haven't you?"
Chen Chuan said: "Not long ago, just arrived."
Cheng Zitong shook his head and said, "Every year, these people with connections come to the school and stuff things in. Forget it, let's not talk about them. Xiaochuan, what's the matter with you coming here?"
Chen Chuan closed the door, came back, and said solemnly, "Teacher, I plan to leave at the end of this month."
"So soon?" Cheng Zitong looked more serious and said, "It seems you have thought it through. Do you need anything? I can prepare it for you."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "The assessment content has regulations. There are restrictions on weapons, belongings, and how to deal with opponents. So I can only bring some necessary supplies and items to the wasteland."
He understood this very well, because in that area, many things could be obtained. If there were no restrictions, the students would definitely perform all kinds of unimaginable operations.
He even thought that there might be examiners watching him secretly.
Cheng Zitong thought for a moment and said, "Let me prepare it for you." He opened the drawer and handed him a form, "This is the travel form, please sign it.
The teacher is not sure how long you will be back, so the only way I can cooperate is to use the excuse of taking you out for training. That way, I won't be staying in school during that time. If you want to call, please call this number..."
Cheng Zitong gave him another phone number and gave him one final word: "Before you decide to leave, you can come to the school again. But during this time, try not to get involved in other things. No matter who calls you, ignore them."
