Atlas of Heaven and Man

A rapid sound echoed in Chen Chuan's ears: "They've all gone to find you."

On Chen Chuan's Realm Beacon, the graphic structure of the entire building showed that the figures originally inside were all emerging from the rooms, some rushing towards him quickly.

They were very fast. As he turned and walked away, chaotic footsteps already sounded outside. When he reached the corridor, about to exit into the corridor hall, smoke grenades and nerve paralyzing grenades were thrown towards him.

Chen Chuan glanced at them, instantly overlapping with his second self. He charged forward, creating a gust of wind that sent the nerve paralyzing grenades and smoke grenades back before they even hit the ground.

Once outside, he scanned his surroundings and saw six people ahead, scattered around the corridor. They were all raising their guns, aiming at him. With a flick of his wrist, the blade flashed a few times, and he swept past them.

"Bang, bang, bang…"

The smoke grenades and paralyzing grenades finally landed. Before the people could react, they were engulfed in explosions and smoke.

Wu Bei saw the field signal there flicker, then the life field signals in the corridor hall all weakened and disappeared. He shuddered and revealed a look of shock.

After a long while, he recovered and excitedly transmitted the biological field signals of the other people to Chen Chuan's Realm Beacon.

Chen Chuan had already reached the fifth floor. A resonator there was constantly trying to interfere with and damage his Realm Beacon. Although Wu Bei blocked them all, the light kept flickering, indicating he was under attack.

A guard here immediately drew his gun upon seeing him.

Chen Chuan's eyes were deep and calm. As expected of the Central City, it seemed like anyone could have a gun. If they weren't a Wu Yi student, they couldn't have a firearms license, so this was likely a long-term authorization.

With a flick of his wrist, the blade flashed quickly. The two people with implanted armor instantly separated, their heads falling at the doorway.

He walked inside, first passing through a spacious and luxurious main hall, then arriving at a tightly locked door. The Realm Beacon indicated that the source of the attack was here. He reached out, grabbed the doorknob, and turned it to push the door open. But he didn't go straight in. Immediately, a series of gunshots rang out from inside.

He stood patiently, waiting. The moment the gunshots stopped, he stepped out, facing the door. He flicked a pebble, sending it flying. With a 'pop,' the resonator's head inside instantly exploded.

He didn't look at it, but naturally closed the door again, then calmly walked out with the Snow Monarch Blade.

At this time, the security team patrolling downstairs had been alarmed and rushed into the building. One team guarded the elevator, and another team rushed up the stairs.

But the resonator who supported them had been killed by Chen Chuan, so now Wu Bei was taking over. He secretly adjusted Chen Chuan's location.

As a result, while they were rushing upstairs, Chen Chuan, who was supposed to be on the fourth floor according to the markers, suddenly appeared in front of them. When they saw each other, the distance between them was less than three meters.

The security captain at the front was shocked, but the company's long and strict training allowed him to react in time. He didn't use his gun, but abandoned his center of gravity and charged towards Chen Chuan with all his might.

In his mind, his own weight and the weight of his equipment would be enough to knock this person off balance! Then, the teammates behind him would quickly step forward to help suppress him or blow his head off at close range with a pistol!

Chen Chuan's eyes were calm and unwavering. He raised his hand and casually brushed it aside.

With a bang, the security captain, over two meters tall and weighing over two hundred kilograms, was easily brushed aside like a stuffed toy and pressed against the wall. The bricks cracked, showing spider web-like fissures, and his whole body sank into it.

A security guard who rushed up behind him was flicked away by Chen Chuan's blade, flying out and hitting the wall, quickly rebounding and blocking the path of the people behind, causing chaos.

Chen Chuan then lowered his center of gravity slightly, and suddenly lifted his foot, directly crashing through the group. In that instant, these people were like being hit by a speeding vehicle on the highway. The people who were gathered together were scattered, flying out and crashing into the walls and ceiling.

With a thud.

Chen Chuan stopped, the bricks under his feet cracking. Then, the security guards fell from the walls and ceiling, landing on the ground with thuds.

Meanwhile, the security guards below, deceived by Wu Bei's information, were still rushing up. A security guard rushed to the stairwell in the corridor hall and saw his figure, immediately drawing his gun.

But before he could shoot, a light flashed, and the tip of the Snow Monarch Blade directly pierced his shoulder. A hand reached out and pushed away the gun in his hand, while the blade tip pushed him forward, forcing him to retreat down the stairs. The security personnel behind him scattered.

After retreating to the wall at the bend, Chen Chuan brought the blade back, and his head flew up. In the instant after he exerted force.

With a whoosh, a security guard leaped forward, seemingly wanting to tackle him. But while still in mid-air, Chen Chuan reached out and grabbed his collar with a *smack*. The man froze there, his feet dangling in the air.

Chen Chuan simply flung him against the stairwell wall. With a crash as the brickwork shattered, the man lay there motionless.

After dealing with those two, Chen Chuan walked down the stairs step by step. None of the other security guards dared to step forward, only nervously aiming their guns at him as they watched him leave.

Wu Bei couldn't help but feel his adrenaline surge. The security team hired by Gold Shrimp Company to protect their assets was full of capable individuals, including fighters at the first and second limits. Yet, even this security team couldn't stop Chen Chuan's advance.

Chen Chuan had now reached the second floor. His gaze swept across the area, and he saw a man wearing a baseball cap with a sinister expression standing there.

He remembered that face. This was the true culprit who killed Xiao Man and Chong Da Ge. Seeing Chen Chuan, the man's pupils constricted. He slowly took a few steps back, then ran away without hesitation.

Chen Chuan stood still. He drew the Wu戟 gun from his windbreaker and fired several shots at the man. The man's legs were instantly shattered, and he involuntarily knelt on the ground. But he immediately used his hands to support himself against the nearby wall, still trying to crawl away.

Chen Chuan slowly walked over. He raised his hand and gently tapped the top of the man's head. Immediately, a series of faint cracking sounds transmitted from the man's entire body.

From his skull to his spine to the bones throughout his body, everything was penetrated by a force that shattered them in an instant. Immediately, the man collapsed like soft mud that had lost its support, but he hadn't died just yet. His flesh slumped softly, and even his head and face were deformed.

At this moment, Wu Bei's voice urgently transmitted again: "Brother Chen, the main members of the Gold Shrimp team have received the news and are heading your way. Should we leave first?"

Chen Chuan said, "No need to leave, I'll wait for them."

Wu Bei was even more excited. "Okay, I'll think of a way. We can't let them understand the situation right now."

After saying that, he immediately found the daily communication information from the company's boundary point, quickly identified who was in contact with those outside, and used these people's boundary credentials to transmit several false messages outward.

At this time, on a road not far from the Gold Shrimp Building, a sleek, shell-branded luxury car was driving along the road, followed by several security vehicles.

Jing Li, the captain of the Gold Shrimp entrusted team, was on his way to the company.

Because it was still during the New Year holiday, the team headquarters only had some duty personnel and the security team left behind, while the elite of the team were almost all by his side.

When he heard that the company's base had been attacked, his eyes became sharp, but he was still very cautious and instructed the resonators who were following him.

Moreover, under Chen Chuan's stimulation, Wu Bei now felt in incredibly good condition, every cell in his body was in high excitement, and he could pull out all kinds of operations at any time, rubbing his hands and preparing to launch a contest with the other party's resonators at any time.

Jing Li asked: "Confirm?"

"Confirmed. The other party should also have a resonators, so they just delayed the messages sent from the building, but their level is just so-so."

Ten minutes later, Jing Li's motorcade arrived at the bottom of the building. In addition to them, other company personnel also rushed over after hearing the news, and more than a dozen cars gathered here.

After the vehicles stopped, with the sound of the car doors opening, Jing Li and the elite backbone of the Gold Shrimp team all came out of the cars.

There were sixteen of them, each wearing stab-proof vests and military-grade implants. Each of them was holding a submachine gun. The money Jing Li had earned over the years had been invested in these people.

As long as these people were here, it didn't matter how many other members died, they could be recruited again.

Jing Li looked towards the lobby on the first floor and was about to let someone in when he saw a figure appear there. In the flickering light and shadow, it changed from blurry to clear. It was a young man with a long knife, wearing a windbreaker and a scarf, slowly walking out of the building.

Seeing this, he ordered: "Fire!"

All the team members raised their guns without hesitation, stood in the square, and pulled the trigger towards the gate.

"Bang bang bang bang..." Countless gunshots spread outward from the square.

Chen Chuan didn't dodge. He just raised his hand to block in front of him, standing firmly there. The bullets that landed on him all slipped off one by one.

After the gunshots vented for a while and finally stopped, he slowly lowered his hand. In his protective gloves, bullets also fell down one by one, clanging and jumping on the floor tiles.

"At least a level three protective suit..."

Jing Li's expression changed. This situation... was not right!
