Chapter 548 Cooperation
Chen Chuan saw a head with bone hammers at both ends poking out from the crack, followed by a slender neck wrapped with circles of shells, and then a huge body that was solid and thick and covered with gray skin.
He recognized it at a glance; it was a ring-necked rhinoceros.
The members of the response team stationed at the back all saw the thing. Its tall size was very intimidating, and they all became nervous.
Yuan Qiyuan and the other two immediately prepared to fight back, and their expressions were very serious. The creatures that had appeared before were not big in size and were easy to deal with, but they didn't think this thing could be solved in a few moves.
Facing the huge creature that came out, Chen Chuan had no intention of retreating. He flashed and suddenly appeared in front of it.
He clenched his five fingers into a fist, with his index finger slightly protruding forward, and punched his chest. It seemed that because of his abundant strength, his entire forearm was sunk into the fist.
The ring-necked rhino's forward momentum suddenly stopped, and it let out a series of wheezing sounds from its mouth. Then its head and four legs lost strength and slammed down on the platform in front of the fissure with a loud bang. The front part of its head hit the brick floor heavily, and the bone hammer on the edge of its head even knocked out a small hole.
Everyone in the back watched with wide eyes, and could hear the rapid breathing around them.
Chen Chuan was much smaller than this creature, which was at least three meters tall. The sizes of the two were even more incomparable. The contrast was even more obvious when they got closer. But with just a simple punch, this huge creature was killed.
This scene was so shocking that it made their hearts beat wildly.
Yuan Qiyuan, Qin Qingque and Su Wei looked down at their feet. The armored rhinoceros was only a few steps away from them. They could clearly see the tightly closed eyes and the thick, wrinkled skin. Just by looking at the solid bone hammer, they could imagine the power it would have when it was swung.
Then he looked up at Chen Chuan who was standing in front of them with his back to them, with a little excitement on his face, and a feeling of admiration arose in his heart.
Chen Chuan, however, seemed to have only done a small thing. He stood there, connected directly to the Ministry of Defense, and said, "I am Chen Chuan."
A familiar, steady voice came from the other end of the line. He said, "I'm Liang Guanghai."
"Commissioner?"
Commissioner Liang said in a deep voice, "Captain Chen, there is a task that needs to be assigned to you now."
Chen Chuan looked up and said, "Commissioner, please speak."
Commissioner Liang said, "Chen Bitong has opened a rift near Hongsheng District, and a split body has landed there. There is reliable information that cavalry from the old imperial family have appeared among them.
Therefore, the involvement of the old imperial family in this matter cannot be ruled out. A large number of cavalry from the old imperial family appeared in Jiyang District. Our people are confronting them, and the main force is also there.
The city is relatively empty now, the situation is urgent, and the situation is dangerous, so I need you to cooperate with an emergency team to stop Chen Bitong. You can discuss the specific steps with your team members."
Chen Chuan said: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
After ending the call, he looked at the rift in front of him and found that this mission was just what he wanted.
Although he is the only one who has cultivated spiritual power here and the essence here can be enjoyed exclusively by him, this is not enough. His spiritual height cannot be pushed higher due to the lack of opponents. Only a strong enough opponent can push his spiritual power to continue to rise.
Chen Bitong...
He thought for a moment, turned around, walked down from the height, and said to Yuan Qiyuan and the other two, "The Defense Department has a mission to arrange. You three will continue to guard here."
This kind of mission to deal with Chen Bitong cannot be joined unless you reach a certain level. It is more appropriate for the team members to stay here to deal with these creatures coming from the opposite direction.
"yes!"
Yuan Qiyuan and the other two saluted in response.
Chen Chuan checked the equipment at hand, and then, under the admiring gaze of the garrison personnel, he got on the armored vehicle holding the Xuejun Sword and drove towards Hongsheng District according to the map instructions given by the Defense Department.
At this time, there was a sound on the boundary. It was a simple information about two people sent by the Ministry of Defense, but it only had the name, appearance and age, nothing else, even the positions they held were not marked.
This should be because the two of them have a certain level of confidentiality.
He then took out a small bottle and looked at it. This was the potion that the Ministry of Defense had sent to him to restore his strength. It was sent to him with such solemnity, so it must be very rare. Therefore, he did not use it at that time, but now he carries it with him.
On the way to Hongsheng District, although the situation was urgent, the frequent cracks and occasional exchanges of fire on the road made it impossible to speed up the car. It took more than an hour to reach this area.
After the car stopped, the driver in front wiped his sweat and turned around and said, "Captain Chen, we're here."
Chen Chuan thanked him and pushed the door open to get out of the car.
He stood outside and looked. It was now five forty-five, but the sky was still the same as it was at midnight, with almost no change. The only difference was that the bright red glow in the sky was even more intense, like blood smeared on the sky.
At this moment, a rustling sound came from the boundary, followed by a flashing communication signal. He immediately connected it, and a mature and indifferent voice came: "Go forward, turn south after 200 meters, the first building on your left, go up to the 13th floor."
Chen Chuan glanced forward and walked towards there with the Xuejun Knife in hand. When he arrived at the said location, he saw an abandoned commercial building.
After walking in, he went up the stairs to the thirteenth floor and saw two people waiting for him in the empty and deserted floor. So he walked forward, but before he took two steps, he felt the presence of one of them pressing towards him.
However, this action is actually not very polite, because even if the other party wants to test and confirm his strength, the two sides can still feel each other when they are close. So taking the initiative to let go and showing a domineering momentum has the intention of showing off his power.
He looked calm, as if he had no feelings at all, and walked in front of the two people.
Nie Guanshan and Yang Shen were slightly surprised to see him endure the pressure without changing his expression, but at the same time they were also quite satisfied.
This shows that Chen Chuan is a person who masters spiritual power and is capable of being their assistant. He is not even qualified to stand in front of Chen Bitong when facing him.
Of the two of them, Yang Shen has been serving and garrisoning in the fusion area all year round. He doesn't care about the affairs of the central city and doesn't know Chen Chuan.
Nie Guanshan was the security guard for important figures in the Government Affairs Department and was more attentive to the situation outside. He had seen the video of the battle between Chen Chuan and Wei Wusheng, but this kind of battle was almost nothing to watch for him, who was almost at the top of the three limits.
So when he saw the information about Chen Chuan that was passed to him just now, his impression was still stuck at that time. Now it seems that he has made great progress.
Yang Shen waited for Chen Chuan to approach before getting straight to the point. "Since you're here, let's talk about the mission. Let's talk about what you need to do next. We've confirmed that Chen Bitong has the ability to hide in the rift, making it almost impossible to accurately capture him before the rift."
When Chen Chuan heard what he said, he couldn't help but think of Astrid's performance just now. The so-called hiding in the rift might be such an ability.
"...So we need someone to distract Chen Bitong at the critical moment, or to bear his offensive.
Because a fighter's weakness usually occurs when he thinks he has an opportunity and chooses to attack. Once this happens, we hope you can hold on. We will deal with him before he can cause you more damage. Do you understand?"
He looked at Chen Chuan and said, "If you have no doubts, then follow this plan."
Chen Chuan raised his eyes and looked at the two of them. "I think there is something wrong with this plan."
Yang Shen said impatiently, "There's nothing wrong with this. This is the plan, and there's no room for change. Since the Ministry of Defense asked you to come and cooperate with us, you must follow this and obey orders. Do you understand?"
Chen Chuan said calmly, "Then may I ask your ranks?"
Yang Shen narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a while before saying, "A member of the Defense Ministry's Exploration Team, Yang Shen."
Nie Guanshan said in a deep voice, "Government Affairs Office, Senior Security Officer, Nie Guanshan."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Executive Captain of the Processing Bureau, Chen Chuan."
Yang Shen and Nie Guanshan were both stunned. Executive captain?
In this case, judging from their job ranks alone, Chen Chuan and the other two are on the same level as them.
However, when I think about the information about Chen Chuan that was sent to them just now, it didn't show any specific situation or position. They didn't care about it at first, but now it seems that this is probably the reason.
An executive captain who is under 20 years old?
The two looked at each other and realized that Chen Chuan was not simple. It seemed that the Ministry of Defense had indeed sent them a powerful partner this time.
The two of them discussed it privately.
Yang Shen said, "What do you think? Do you want to change people?"
"It can't be changed." Nie Guanshan immediately denied it.
He comes from the Government Affairs Office and is more politically sensitive. If they had proposed replacing him earlier, it would have been fine, but now that the person has come to them, regardless of his ability, at least his rank is the same as theirs, which shows that the Ministry of Defense respects their request.
If you ask for a replacement at this time, the people above will think that you are just looking for trouble and shirking responsibility. If the mission fails, they will definitely try to make them take the blame, or at least bear part of the responsibility.
He said in a deep voice, "We can make some concessions on the surface, but when it comes to fighting, it won't be up to him."
Although they could not force Chen Chuan to do anything, when the real fight came it would all depend on strength and experience.
At Chen Chuan's age, even if he has outstanding talent and can barely catch up with them in strength, his experience is incomparable. They have plenty of ways to guide and utilize it and create a situation that is beneficial to themselves.
