Chapter 415 Cave
Liang Guanghai raised his hand, and a map of the major central cities appeared on the table. He pointed at a few locations and said solemnly:
"Just last year, a gap appeared in the ring screen, which affected several central cities, including our Jibei Road. We lost a lot of manpower because of this. Not only that, we also had many points that could not be monitored, which led to many unpredictable situations.
This loophole has not been completely plugged yet, and it is clear that some of it has come to us from the other side.
For example, Meng Huang from Fusion Boundary Company, whom you dealt with before, might have been possessed by one of them. We have dealt with quite a few cases so far, but it is hard to say whether there are any that have slipped through the net.
The main personnel from the processing bureau are still responsible for tracking down this matter. When the gap in the ring screen appeared, we suspect that there was an internal problem. "
He raised his hand and waved it again, and a light curtain appeared behind him, with a person appearing on it.
Chen Chuan took a look and saw a man wearing a half-face mask and a protective windbreaker. He had thin cheeks, deep wrinkles around the corners of his eyes, and deep, sharp eyes. He was about forty-five or forty-six years old.
"Chen Bitong is a third-level fighter, and a skilled fighter approaching the level of a martial artist.
He was nearby when the incident happened. He had a small team under his command that had been stationed at the frontier of the World Ring for a long time. They had made many achievements in the past, and he himself had a certain background.
The investigation team has already investigated and found nothing wrong, but his suspicion cannot be completely ruled out. According to the analysis report, even if he himself is not involved in this incident, there are people around him who are very likely involved. "
Liang Guanghai looked at Chen Chuan and said, "Executive Chen, you have a clean resume, a reliable background, and sufficient combat capability, so we will temporarily arrange for you to be near the area where he frequently moves.
You don't need to do anything, nor do you need to deliberately approach anyone. If you interact with him, just observe him closely and record what you see and hear."
Chen Chuan glanced at the man, nodded and said, "I understand."
Liang Guanghai said, "I know you still have some tasks to complete, so I'll give you some time to process them. Please report back before the end of the month."
He gave an instruction using his credentials, and the woman walked back into the meeting room, holding a box in her hand.
After placing it on the table, it was opened and inside was a boundary certificate.
Liang Guanghai said: "This barrier was specially made by the Ministry of Defense. It has strong anti-interference and self-repair capabilities and can adapt to various combat environments.
It contains a lot of information, including various precautions and specific information about Chen Bitong. You can take it home and read it slowly. When participating in defense, you will use this certificate.
After saying that, he looked at Chen Chuan and said, "Executive Chen, do you have any questions?"
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Not yet."
"In that case, let's end our conversation here today."
The woman stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation. After Chen Chuan took the pass, she took him out. After seeing Chen Chuan off, she returned to the conference room.
Liang Guanghai looked at the woman and said, "How is it?"
The woman's eyes were filled with a faint black mist, which then subsided. She said, "No problem. His body is clean and his field is very stable. It is certain that he has not been attacked or infected."
Liang Guanghai said in a deep voice, "Just because it's like this now doesn't mean it will be like this in the future. I hope he won't be misled by the fusionists when he gets there."
The woman said, "Since the commissioner is optimistic about him, wouldn't it be better to let him settle down for a year or two?"
Liang Guanghai shook his head. "I also hope to slowly cultivate talent, but we've already lost a large number of people since the last incident, and those traitorous organizations are rampant again. Even though we've drawn in some personnel from various parties to supplement the situation, it's still not enough. The current situation is very serious, and the talents we can use can only fill in for now."
He thought about it and said, "Well, send a proposal to the processing bureau, and try to be more lenient with him in terms of salary and promotion."
The woman responded, "Okay, Commissioner."
After Chen Chuan walked out of the processing bureau and returned to the car, he received the message from Wu Bei.
"Brother Chen, I've been keeping an eye on the building you mentioned. I saw two suspicious individuals and was planning to follow them, but their movements were intentionally blocked. After tracking them to the Shenwei District, I couldn't find their whereabouts anymore. I tried to track the blocked signal, but couldn't find any results."
He raised his voice, "The people on the other side are very powerful. But I have placed some reaction signals around you, Brother Chen. If they appear again, I should be able to detect them."
Chen Chuan's heart moved slightly, and he said, "Thank you, Brother Wu."
He changed his mind. Even Wu Bei, who had a resonance nest, couldn't track these two people. They definitely had both technology and equipment. The origins of these people must be extraordinary.
The first thing that came to his mind was the warning in the lower city, but he quickly ruled it out because he had not told anyone when he would return to the upper city, and the other party would not have sent anyone to guard here in advance.
Besides, according to the other party, since he has left, there is no need to provoke him, so it is very likely that they are a force in the Upper City.
He thought about it carefully and seemed to have some clues, but he couldn't be completely sure.
But he thought there was no need to take it too seriously. The other party was only observing his movements and attacking him. He just needed to be careful from now on.
After getting in the car, he drove the Gard toward Lulan Lake.
Last time, Secretary Qiu told him that Xu Xianwen had a place to stay hidden in an underground river nearby. Now that he was out this time, he decided to go there and check it out.
Originally, because he was passing by Motie Mountain this time, he planned to visit Senior Cao as well, but when he arrived at the gate of the manor, he saw many luxury cars parked in the open space, and it seemed that there were many guests. He had not informed anyone in advance when he came, so after taking a look, he left directly.
After driving north for a while and crossing Motie Mountain, we arrived in front of Lulan Lake. Because the location was somewhere on the opposite side of the lake, if we walked along the lakeshore, the distance would be too long. Instead, walking on the lake surface was the fastest.
So when he got here, he simply got out of the car, quickened his pace, quickly parted the reeds on the shore, and stepped towards the lake. As a wave split the water, he moved quickly forward.
After six or seven minutes, he approached the location, and his body sank down. With a sound of "thud", he sank directly to the bottom of the water. Then he adjusted his body and swam towards that place.
Following Jie Ping's instructions and comparison, he searched for a while and finally found an underwater cave, but the water flowed extremely fast here.
This did not have much impact on him, and he just went straight in along the stream. Although there were many bumps along the way, it did not cause any damage to his strong physique.
After swimming for about half a mile, he went up the dark river, and when he was close to the top, there were balls of light. He knew that this was probably the place, so he immediately accelerated and finally came out of a small pool.
As he stepped on the ground, white steam came out of his body and his clothes gradually dried up. He looked around and found that it was a cave, but there was a mining lamp hanging above it, emitting a dazzling and hot light. It was obvious that the generator here was still working, and perhaps enough algae oil had been prepared in advance.
He walked around the cave. This place was actually not very big, probably only about fifty square meters, divided into five spaces, three large and two small. There was also a small path at the back, which seemed to lead to a forest. It seemed that because of this, several lizards that specialized in preying on insects and ants were raised here.
In the largest space, there is a wardrobe, a bed for rest and a bedside table, and there are also shelves made of long wooden boards on the wall.
There were several bottles of medicine and a box of nutritional cream placed on top. There were even special medicines, but there were only two bottles. I couldn't tell if they were originally few or if they were leftovers. Judging from the appearance, they should be from the Fusion Boundary Company batch, most likely given by Meng Huang.
He checked the bedside table and wardrobe, where some valuables and identity cards were placed. There was some money, about two or three hundred thousand, a gold note from the Wansheng Group, a spare dagger and a pistol.
It seems that this is just a transit station, so there shouldn't be anything of great value here.
But then he made another discovery.
Behind the wardrobe, if you remove the movable baffle, there is a simple "secret room". When you open it, you will find a set of thick books wrapped in moisture-proof cloth.
He lifted the outer cloth and saw the original appearance of the books. They were three volumes of the Secret Snake Sect's scriptures. They looked a bit old, but every corner was very smooth, and it was obvious that they had been carefully cared for.
Chen Chuan flipped through it and saw that each page was made entirely of a special animal skin, with the words engraved on it and then painted with a pigment similar to cinnabar.
The first one was the doctrine of the Secret Snake Cult, which he skipped directly. This kind of old-time stuff can be searched on the current Secret Snake platform. It is not a rare thing. Even the believers themselves don’t read it now.
The second book had more useful information, which was full of the secret ritual patterns of the Secret Snake Cult. He took a quick look at it and found that the general scope did not exceed the information given to him by Director Lei.
As expected, the third book is about fighting techniques, which contains introductions and practice methods of various secret powers of the Secret Snake Sect, even the Mysterious Snake Power is recorded.
But it's just a look.
Because it only mentioned some superficial things. It didn't mention how to guide the breathing method, which parts of the alienated tissue should be focused on, and what medicines should be taken during the period.
So the real trick is not this. If this thing is lost outside, there is no way you can practice it just by relying on it.
The book did describe the characteristics of each limit and the capabilities that could be achieved. After reading the descriptions of the first three limits, he found that the book was still quite thick at the back.
My heart couldn't help but move slightly, could there be more?
