Chapter 463 Intertwined
This convoy is composed of security personnel who escort Director Lei to his new post. It can be seen that the Central City's Esoteric Cult Investigation Bureau attaches great importance to Director Lei.
Wu Han was originally listening to jokes on the radio when he turned around and said, "Wow, what a big scene! Is this the person you're waiting for, Chen Xue-Brother?"
Chen Chuan nodded.
As the convoy approached, an extended armored vehicle drove up to the side of Gard's car. The window slowly rolled down, revealing the figure of Director Lei, who was sitting in the back seat.
Sitting next to him was a man in his thirties wearing protective glasses. He was a third-level fighter sent by the Esoteric Investigation Bureau, responsible for protecting Director Lei's safety.
Chen Chuan glanced over there. When his gaze went over, the man felt as if he was pricked by a needle. He sat up straight unconsciously with a look of surprise. Chen Chuan nodded to him in a friendly manner, and the man quickly responded.
Director Lei said, "Student Chen, we have pre-set field creatures here, and the boundary certificate can be connected."
Chen Chuan said hello, took the boundary pass placed aside and put it on, and quickly entered the regional field channel of the entire team, so as to ensure that everyone would be informed at the first time if any situation occurred.
He then said to Wu Han and Wei Dong, "You two should try it on too."
After the two of them put them on after trying for a while, he classified them into a subcategory channel under his own and set the listening mode.
In this way, the two people can hear each other's voices, but cannot speak to the outside.
He spoke with Director Lei again and confirmed that there was no problem. After checking at this checkpoint, both parties started their vehicles and drove forward.
On the back seat, Wu Han and Wei Dong felt it was particularly novel. It was the first time for them to have a long-distance conversation with the help of the interface. They chatted with each other and had a lot of fun.
Chen Chuan understood this; it was true, having never come into contact with anything like this. If he hadn't lived in a world with advanced communications in his previous life, his performance wouldn't have been much better the first time he put on the Boundary Pass. He said, "You two, be careful."
Wu Han perked up immediately after hearing his words. He stopped staring at Jie Ping and leaned forward to ask, "Junior, is... is there something wrong?"
Chen Chuan said: "It's not certain yet, but it's possible."
Wu Han and Wei Dong looked at each other and saw an eager look in each other's eyes. It was too boring to just sit in the car and listen to the programs on the radio, but it would be different if they could participate in the program themselves.
Chen Chuan said, "If there's a situation, I'll handle the strong ones, and you can handle the others yourself, but be careful."
"Don't worry, junior, we have it in hand."
Wu Han said this, and his expression became much more serious.
He and Weidong have carried out many commissions, and they were always at the forefront. If he didn't have eyes, didn't react quickly enough, and didn't know how to judge the enemy's situation, he wouldn't be able to hold on no matter how capable he was.
They are not just good at rushing forward, they can also assess the situation and find better solutions.
The convoy drove forward along the National Avenue, but after driving for nearly four hours, nothing happened. It was already afternoon.
In the sky, Chao Ming was flying along with the convoy. Chen Chuan had tested it before and found that although Chao Ming had not yet fully grown, he had enough physical strength and could fly for eight or nine hours while maintaining a certain speed.
With Chao Ming there, it was like having an extra pair of eyes, allowing him to discover some situations early.
Looking up from the ground, Chao Ming is just a big black dot. Most people would not pay much attention to it. Even if they found it, they would be helpless at a far enough distance.
The afternoon sun was bright, the road was extremely empty, and the monotonous scene made people feel lazy. At this time, a neither loud nor low cry came from the sky.
Birds often fly over this area, so the sound wasn't unusual. However, after hearing it, Chen Chuan realized something was wrong. He put his hand on the fence and said, "Director Lei, we need to pay attention to the front."
After he notified the team, the security consultant next to Director Lei informed the entire convoy without hesitation, and all armed personnel immediately became alert.
Not long after, they could see from afar a convoy coming towards them. They could vaguely see that there were several large transport vehicles in it. It was usually difficult to see such a convoy on this national highway, especially when coming from this direction.
At this time, two armored vehicles came out of the escort convoy, sped up, passed Chen Chuan, and headed towards the vehicle in front.
As escort vehicles sent by the Central City Esoteric Cult Bureau, both vehicles are equipped with monitoring equipment that can detect whether there are shielding devices and field interference creatures on the opposite vehicle. If so, it means that the other party may have problems, and a message can be sent immediately to the rear to let them pay attention.
But everything was normal, the other party's speed didn't even slow down much, and the driver in the lead just glanced at them a few times, then looked calmly ahead again.
The combatant consultant next to Director Lei used his boundary certificate to ask the team member in front of him: "Can you recognize the other party's origin?"
Someone replied: "Judging from the license plate number and markings, it's most likely a Central City Lianwei Zhongyu vehicle."
Chen Chuan's eyes moved slightly. Lianwei Zhongyu's main business is security hiring and cross-regional transportation services, so it seems normal for them to walk on the National Avenue.
But because of his previous efforts to deal with Zhao Qian, he had some knowledge of this company. Their business generally only took place between central cities, and they rarely went to peripheral cities.
The back of this road only leads to Yangzhi City. Although Yangzhi City also leads to a distant port on the east side, if you want to transport goods to the open sea, you can just go directly through Jiyang District in the central city. There is no need to go around here.
He spoke to Director Lei privately through Jie Ping.
At this time, the other vehicle came from the opposite direction and passed by them, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong.
A little later, Director Lei came back with a message: "I've already spoken to Consultant Yao, and he said he's made arrangements."
Chen Chuan nodded.
The convoy continued to move forward, and another half an hour passed. At this rate, they would reach the last checkpoint in less than half an hour, and then enter the central city area.
It's not completely safe there, but at least the communications with the city can be connected. The personnel stationed in various areas of the processing bureau are mainly responsible for protecting government officials like Director Lei. If there is any problem, they will rush over immediately.
Just then, Chen Chuan heard another call from Chao Ming, this time a shorter and more urgent one. He didn't see anything in front of him, but he believed that Chao Ming must have seen something unusual from his observation in the sky, so he said to Jie Ping without hesitation, "Director Lei, perhaps we should stop first."
Director Lei trusted him very much and immediately asked him to stop the car.
Although the escort convoy also did not discover it, Chen Chuan had just discovered that convoy in advance. They thought that they might have seen something this time. For their own safety, they would rather stop and wait.
It’s best if there are no problems, but if there are any, you can be prepared as early as possible.
So after the message was sent, the entire convoy gradually slowed down and slowly stopped one after another. Only the two leading cars in the front did not stop, but went to the front to check the situation.
At this moment, about three kilometers ahead of them, on both sides of the National Avenue, two teams were lying in ambush. They were hiding in pits dug in advance and observing the movements of the convoy with binoculars.
At this time, they found that the convoy that was originally driving normally suddenly stopped, and only two cars came forward. Not knowing what was going on, they immediately used gestures to notify the people who were ambushing farther behind, and they also used the radio to report the situation here.
After waiting for a while, clear instructions came back from the other side, telling them not to wait any longer and to take action immediately.
On the National Avenue, the two cars ahead were observing their surroundings vigilantly. Just as they were about to reach the ambush on both sides, they heard movement in front of them and saw another convoy coming from the distance on the opposite side of the road.
Their attention was immediately drawn to it, and they became alert, speeding up slightly and moving forward to meet it.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed a rustling sound coming from the boundary. This was not a communication barrier caused by the long distance, but a field interference creature.
There is indeed a problem!
They immediately activated the radio to send a message to the rear.
At this moment, a group of fighting creatures suddenly jumped out from the guardrails on both sides of the National Avenue. They all looked like fighting mantises from the Compound Eyes Company.
It seemed like it arrived in front of the two cars in the blink of an eye, and the sharp blades slashed towards the car bodies and windows. However, before they could cut through the car bodies and windows, they fell powerlessly from mid-air one by one and landed on the ground like raindrops.
Those who rushed forward slid down along the car body and were then run over by the reinforced wheels. They were crushed with a creaking sound, and blood and tissue fluid spread all over the ground.
The vehicles sent out by the Central City Esoteric Bureau this time are heavily armored, and Esoteric ritual patterns are implanted inside the vehicle walls. Once activated, any living organism that approaches will be subjected to various physiological and even psychological effects. Therefore, when the people in the vehicle saw these combat creatures coming, they were all very calm.
But then their faces changed, because as more combat mantises jumped over, they saw implant fighters holding long swords, wearing goggles and protective armor jumping out from both sides of the protective fence.
One of the particularly agile figures suddenly jumped down in front with a bang and raised the knife in his hand high.
The driver's expression changed and he tried to turn quickly, but the next moment, the man seemed to have crossed a distance of dozens of meters and suddenly appeared nearby, then chopped him down with a knife!
The entire car body seemed to be cut apart like paper, and after moving forward for a while, it slid to both sides and hit the side of the road.
The man who drew the knife saw the convoy in front of him reflected in his protective goggles. He swung the knife and made a spinning motion, while the implanted fighters and biological weapons behind him quickly passed him and rushed forward.
