Atlas of Heaven and Man

After beheading him with a single strike, Chen Chuan walked over and used his blade to pry open the burly man's coat, revealing a thick, black protective armor underneath.

This armor looked quite high-end, seemingly capable of deflecting blades without requiring any force. Clearly, the man intended to catch him off guard with this feature. An ordinary person might not have been able to react in time.

Although he hadn't used the Heavy Severing Blade Force at the time, the fact that only a corporate team possessed such protective gear suggested that the Blood Ink Guard of Mo Lan Company undoubtedly had even better armor.

Encountering them would make fighting difficult, so he needed to carefully consider how to fight them.

During their brief exchange, the An Tan Company people didn't hesitate to retreat. In a fight of this level, others couldn't help much; they wouldn't know where to aim their guns. Besides, they had just made a profit and were eager to return and enjoy it. Why risk their lives?

On the high slope, the captain, witnessing the situation, asked, "Special Envoy, should we pursue them?"

The team member nodded and immediately went back to send the telegram.

At the same time, gunfire erupted on the opposite slope, as two flanking squads launched an attack on the unknown armed group.

From the sound of the gunfire, Old Feng could tell that his side's attack was very rhythmic, with well-coordinated short and long-range attacks, leaving gaps for those skilled in close combat to assault.

In contrast, the enemy was chaotic and uncoordinated, with some people simply firing continuously, on par with some wasteland teams.

Such teams could only survive if they had skilled fighters or well-equipped implants.

But it was useless. His team had plenty of ways to deal with such people, especially with Chen Chuan's squad among those flanking. These people, wearing protective armor, were excellent for surprise attacks.

So, after listening for a while, he stopped paying attention to that side and led his men down to the battlefield below.

First, several team members stepped forward to finish off those on the ground, then he personally went to inspect the goods. Opening the back door of the cargo truck, he saw a whole truckload of high-energy nutrient solutions.

It seemed all the high-energy nutrient solutions ordered from outside were here. As for the combat mantises, there weren't as many as expected, only ten stacked boxes, placed in the corner. This was normal; no matter how many combat mantises you bought, they couldn't move without high-energy nutrient solutions.

After confirming there were no problems, he felt relieved. The mission was successfully completed. At this moment, everyone turned their heads, and he turned back to see Chen Chuan returning.

He praised, "Little Brother Chen, well done!"

Chen Chuan said, "It was Special Envoy Feng and everyone who created the opportunity for me."

Old Feng smiled. This was one of the reasons he favored Chen Chuan. The latter didn't have the arrogance of someone who thought they were so great that they didn't need to care about others. He didn't care about such things, but many people did.

He then turned around and said, "The mission is successfully completed. After returning this time, I will recommend everyone for merit in front of Commissioner Cao."

The team members immediately responded, "Thank you, Special Envoy!"

This mission was actually very easy. Although it seemed that Chen Chuan was the main force, and it was clear that Old Feng was intentionally promoting the young man, they weren't dissatisfied.

What was wrong with completing the mission without doing too much? Risking their lives might earn them more bonuses, but if they lost their lives, what they received would be a pension.

They would step up when they needed to, but they would also save effort when they could.

At this time, the two flanking squads that had been sent out returned. The captain reported, "Special Envoy, the unknown armed group has been completely annihilated, with thirty-four killed on the spot and five captured."

"What about the prisoners?"

The captain waved his hand, "Bring them up."

The five prisoners were immediately brought forward, Xiao Xiao was restrained with special bindings. Both of his hands had been severed, exposing the cross-section of the implant tissue, with tissue fluid still flowing.

His eyes were originally defiant when he came, but when he saw Chen Chuan standing there with a knife, and thought of what he had just seen, he showed a look of fear and lowered his head.

Mr. Zero was obviously the leader, so he was brought before Old Feng, who asked, "Which company are you from?"

Mr. Zero gritted his teeth and didn't speak.

Old Feng said, "We have many ways to make you talk, but it's easier if you say it yourself. Even if you don't say it, I can find out with a little effort." As he spoke, a team member took out a pistol and pointed it at Mr. Zero's head, as if he would shoot if the answer was wrong.

Mr. Zero wasn't a very resolute person, but if he answered immediately, it would seem too cheap. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately replied, "Ferris Wheel Company."

Old Feng thought for a moment, he had some impression. This was a newly emerging small company that had produced a lot of various things. Currently, the Bureau of General Affairs' attention was focused on large companies, and such small companies were not worth paying attention to, but since they had run into them, they couldn't pretend they didn't see them.

He said, "Take them all back, create a file, and pay more attention to this company in the future."

After the man was dragged away, he asked, "Has the team that attacked Molan Corporation been investigated thoroughly?"

"It's been investigated. They were just a hired team, but they don't know who their employer is."

Old Feng said, "There must be a person in charge coordinating from the middle, otherwise this kind of armed team would pocket the money and disband. Old Zhao, you need to find a way to dig him out."

"Yes," a capable team member responded.

At this moment, a telegraph operator came over and saluted him: "Special Envoy, Commissioner Cao sent a telegram asking if it has been dealt with?"

Old Feng looked at his watch and said, "It's only just past four o'clock and he's already sending telegrams. Old Cao is too anxious. Send him a telegram back saying that the matter has been dealt with. Everyone else, clean up this place quickly, and we'll go back."

The team members responded in unison.

Half an hour later, after the scene was processed, everyone began to return. By the time they returned to Yangzhi City, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.

This time, the Bureau of General Affairs established a temporary stronghold inside the General Bureau of the Patrol Bureau. There are complete fortresses and underground works preserved from the Great Development Era. Even in unexpected situations, they can hold out for a long time.

When Old Feng brought Chen Chuan in, it seemed that they were discussing strategies against Molan Corporation. They heard a deep voice saying, "My opinion is to concentrate our forces and attack the Molan Corporation Building. That way, none of them can escape, and we can solve all the problems once and for all!"

Commissioner Cao's voice then came out: "The Molan Corporation's building is in the city center, and it's only one kilometer away from the government affairs hall. This is also a densely populated area. Choosing to start a war here will cause a lot of casualties."

"Wouldn't it be fine to evacuate in advance? Besides, doing this kind of thing inevitably involves sacrifices. The sooner we solve it, the fewer sacrifices there will be. If you keep dragging this on, I think the higher-ups will replace you sooner or later."

"I still insist on the original suggestion I submitted, which is to let Molan Corporation come out of that turtle shell themselves, and then encircle and suppress them outside."

"How are you going to get them out?"

Commissioner Cao only said, "They will come out."

"I'm waiting. You only have ten days. If you can't handle it within ten days, then I will launch the second plan at any time. At that time, the sacrifices you are worried about will only be greater."

After the argument ended, the person who spoke walked out from inside in large strides. Chen Chuan saw that this was a burly man about two meters tall, around fifty years old, with a vertical scar at the corner of his eye, his lips tightly pursed, and the uniform on his body was tightly stretched by the muscles on his body. When he walked, he felt that the floor was shaking.

This person met the two of them, his gaze first swept over Old Feng, and then fell on Chen Chuan. After looking at him, he said, "You are Chen Chuan? I have read the speech you gave in the Judgment Court, very good! To deal with those unstable elements, we should take the initiative to attack and leave none alive! After the national conscription ends, you can come and find me. I have a stage here suitable for you to perform."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Chen Chuan to reply, and strode away.

Chen Chuan asked Old Feng: "Who is this?"

Old Feng said: "A member of the National Temporary Special Action Committee. This time, he was entrusted by the higher-ups to be specifically responsible for supervising our work. This person is a bit extreme, try to stay away from him. Those who follow them rarely have a good ending." He gestured inside, "Let's go in."

The two walked in and saw that the inside was a spacious combat conference room. A huge map of Yangzhi City was hanging on the front wall, with some places specially marked with black lines and red dots. In the middle of the conference room, there was a proportionally scaled terrain sand table, the most conspicuous of which was the Molan Building.

Commissioner Cao was standing by the sand table looking at it, seemingly studying something. After the two came in, he said without raising his head, "The mission was completed very well. Molan Corporation should have received the news now. I think they will start taking action at the latest tomorrow or the day after."

Old Feng asked: "Old Cao, are you sure they will leave?"

"Staying here is a dead end, why wouldn't they leave?"

Old Feng said: "Ten days…" He pondered for a moment, "Even if you force them out, how are you going to deal with them outside? The difficulty of encircling and suppressing them like that will undoubtedly be higher."

Commissioner Cao said: "I already have a plan." He looked at Chen Chuan, "I received Old Feng's telegram just now. You did a good job this time. There's another mission, you'll participate."

Chen Chuan asked: "What is it?"

Commissioner Cao said: "Participate in the attack on the Molan Corporation Building. Even if they leave, they will leave some people behind to guard the house, so as to hold back part of our strength."

Chen Chuan said: "Commissioner Cao, can I ask about the time?"

Commissioner Cao said with great certainty: "Within three days, go back and prepare well. During the national mission, the country will provide you with the things you consume. Take advantage of this opportunity."

Chen Chuan nodded. It seemed that this was a benefit of participating in the national mission. He said, "If there's nothing else, then I'll leave first." After saying goodbye to the two, he left here.

Only Commissioner Cao and Old Feng were left in the conference room for a while.

Old Feng looked a little worried: "Old Cao, annihilating Molan Corporation is important, but whether we can get the thing is equally important, and even the higher-ups value this more. If you let them go out, it will be many times more difficult to find."

Commissioner Cao calmly analyzed: "Even in the company, they have ways to send it away. It's better to let them take it." His gaze fell on the sand table, and he said coldly: "They can't escape."
