Chapter 683 Blockage
If Chen Chuan punched the place at this moment, with the destructive power of his mental strength, it would be enough to break the barrier above and penetrate the passage below.
If he jumped down again, his speed would be enough to catch up with the other person.
But one has to consider whether there are also explosives buried in this place. It seems that the other party's decision to go to the downtown area was just a sudden decision, and they couldn't have known in advance that they would change direction here.
But sometimes you don't need to know all this in advance, as long as you are prepared in a few key positions. The other party gave him the impression that he was the kind of person who would make all kinds of preparations. So he felt there was no need to take such risks, nor to follow the other party's rhythm.
So at this moment, his body suddenly accelerated, and he didn't pay any attention to that person, but ran in another direction.
Excluding those hidden and intentionally dug secret passages, the main passages in the lower city are now displayed on his map. Judging from the opponent's escape route, they will pass through a larger underground intersection. If the opponent's direction of travel does not change, that is the only way to go deep underground. He can go there in advance to block the opponent.
As for whether this person will go back, most people would never dare to go back, but this person is not certain, he cannot gamble on this possibility.
So he used the boundary pass to send a message to the back, asking them to immediately send the people behind to catch up and bring explosives to seal the pit to the area above.
At the same time, he asked Andun to monitor the entire path above. If anyone came out from the middle, he would immediately inform him in advance. While running, he made a series of arrangements.
At this time, he had already entered the lower city area from an entrance according to Andun's markings, and the city security guards here only felt a whistling sound that broke through the air, and then a louder whistling sound came from the tunnel, like some artillery shell was launched in, and they suddenly became confused.
After a while, a voice came from above, and it turned out to be a blockade order from above. So they hurriedly came out of the guard booth and moved the roadblocks in a panic.
After Chen Chuan entered the lower city area, he quickly passed through the tunnel. After just twenty seconds, he came to an open place and stopped there.
As he paused, a deafening roar suddenly erupted, and the entire tunnel was filled with continuous echoes. Slight vibrations could be felt on the ground and walls, and fragments and stones collapsed from some damaged areas and loose structures. After a while, the noise gradually subsided.
He looked forward. There was no news coming from above, which meant that the other party had not turned back. So if the other party wanted to return to the ground or continue to go deeper into the lower city, they would definitely pass by here.
He just had to wait.
Just at this moment, scattered footsteps and cursing sounds were heard from a distance. These should be gang members from the lower city area who controlled a section of the intersection here. They might have come over to check because of the roar just now.
After all, every intersection leading to the upper part is controlled by someone, in order to monopolize the resources of the upper and lower urban areas. Even people involved in logistics have to pay a toll when passing through these controlled areas.
But he didn't want these people to disturb him. As his spirit expanded outward, an invisible impact spread out, and these gang members suddenly fell to the ground one by one, and then there was no movement.
As the spirit was transmitted, the information in this field was affected, as if it was interfered with by an interfering creature, and all the information fields could not be transmitted.
After dealing with these people, he stood there with a knife in his hand. The sun vine that was originally used for lighting here had already collapsed. Although the plant had not withered yet and still emitted a little light, the light was rather scattered and could only barely illuminate the place, and his shadow stretched out long on the ground.
After waiting for about two minutes, he heard footsteps in the distance. The sound came from the other end of the tunnel, but it was very obvious in the relatively quiet tunnel. At the same time, he imagined a figure in a smock.
He raised his eyes and looked into the long tunnel ahead.
It was just that the footsteps seemed to have discovered something and stopped only three hundred meters away, which happened to be the turning point of a tunnel.
After pausing for a moment, the man continued forward and slowly turned from the corner. He then saw Chen Chuan standing across the tunnel with a knife.
He paused again, but did not retreat. Instead, he continued to move forward because he knew that he had entered Chen Chuan's spiritual range and could no longer move. On the ground, he could still use various buildings and obstacles to hinder him, but here he had no such conditions.
He walked until he was about thirty or forty meters in front of Chen Chuan and stopped, then praised him from the bottom of his heart, "Manager Chen, your reputation is well-deserved."
He got some news about Chen Chuan from the head office, and learned that the latter had recently been instructed by the processing bureau to keep a close eye on him, and that three of his team members were caught not long ago.
He was keenly aware that Chen Chuan was a very capable investigation director and a very tough opponent. If he allowed Chen Chuan to continue his investigation, it would be difficult for him to carry out his planned plan according to the company's instructions. So he decisively decided to use the burrowing queen as bait and tried to plan this ambush.
If Chen Chuan can be dealt with, then most of Lianwei Zhongyu’s troubles can be solved.
But judging from the current results, Chen Chuan was not only unharmed, but also calculated his evacuation route in advance and blocked him here, leaving him with no way to escape. He admired this kind of professionalism.
As an opponent, although he was thinking of getting rid of Chen Chuan, he also admired the strong strength and extraordinary judgment shown by Chen Chuan in the process.
He reached out and took off his hood, revealing a resolute face with thick eyebrows and a bun on his head. He introduced himself briefly, saying, "Fan Mo."
Chen Chuan said calmly, "Chen Chuan."
Fan Mo sighed and said, "Actually, I wanted to avoid fighting with Director Chen at all costs. Because I don't think I can defeat someone as powerful as you without paying any price. Even if I could win, it would be more trouble than it's worth."
The task assigned to him by the company is to enter the fusion area to seize the lost items. This time he will most likely compete with the armed personnel of the Jibei Dao Government, the Union, and the Linax Federation, so he wants to maintain his full combat effectiveness before entering the fusion area.
Chen Chuan's strength cannot be underestimated. Not to mention the information seen before, even if it can be felt in the previous chase, even if he can win, it always feels like half of it is fighting for others, and if he loses, the result is needless to say, in short, it is a loss no matter how you look at it.
Chen Chuan looked at him and said, "To me, it makes no difference. Every one of you is a target for the Bureau to expel and eliminate."
Fan Mo showed a look of understanding. He reached out and grasped the handle of the broad knife at his waist. In a flash, he pulled out the blade and said, "Then I will teach you."
Chen Chuan also held the hilt of Xuejun Knife at this time, but before he could pull out the blade completely, Fan Mo, who seemed to be waiting for him to draw his knife, suddenly stepped forward and slashed at him with the knife!
At this moment, his hair fluttered back, his muscles tensed, and his expression became extremely ferocious. The knife went straight into the center line with such great force that it almost condensed all the alienated tissues in his body into one strand. Combined with that special broad knife, it seemed that even the air was torn to the sides.
Chen Chuan's eyes flashed. He knew that no matter how he blocked or dodged, the opponent would follow up with a move. Although he also had a corresponding countermeasure, he chose not to do so. Instead, he took half a step towards the opponent.
With just half a step distance, the opponent's original strength can no longer be exerted consistently. If he wants to fully exert his strength, he must make adjustments.
This was the method used that day to deal with a member of the opposing team. In fact, it was to use one's own speed, field, spirit and even comprehensive advantages in all aspects to change the rhythm, forcing the opponent to change from active to passive, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the rhythm of the battle.
Fan Mo was obviously much stronger than his teammates. During the process, his body seemed like a self-regulating pendulum. He just made slight adjustments to the alienated tissues and muscles in his body and found the right angle to exert force again.
But at this time Chen Chuan made another change. He held the Xuejun Sword, which had not been unsheathed, horizontally and placed it against his blade first.
Although Fan Mo made some adjustments when the knife came slashing at him after seeing his movements, he was still a step too late. Moreover, the two consecutive adjustments did not allow him to exert sufficient strength because his force was not smooth.
As their weapons collided, the strength of both sides rushed towards each other.
Fan Mo is undoubtedly a fighter who has mastered the power of the mind. For a fighter, unless he has practiced horizontal training of the mind, the power of the mind cannot be directly resisted by the body.
However, fighting with weapons is a different situation, because the force can be borne partly by the weapon itself, but this also means that if you do not have an alienated weapon of a sufficient level, you are not qualified to participate in this kind of battle.
At this moment, in this clash, most of the mental strength was borne by the weapons of both sides. Tiny water droplets appeared on Fan Mo's broad sword, as if the alienated tissue inside was expelling the strength.
Although the Xuejun Sword had not been unsheathed, wisps of light mist emanated from the scabbard, wrapping around the scabbard and also absorbing its power.
Chen Chuan had been prepared to be strongly affected by the opponent's strength, but he was surprised to find that he was not affected at all. He immediately realized that the opponent's strength was almost completely absorbed by the Xuejun Sword. He couldn't help but feel excited. It seemed that the benefits absorbed by the Xuejun Sword over the past few days were not in vain, and now it was showing its due value.
