Atlas of Heaven and Man

This convoy was composed of security personnel escorting Director Lei to his new post. It was clear that the Central City's Secret Sect Review Bureau placed great importance on Director Lei.

Wu Han was originally listening to jokes on the radio when he turned his head to look and said, "Wow, what a big show. Is this the person you've been waiting for, Junior Chen?"

Chen Chuan nodded.

As the convoy approached, a stretched armored vehicle drove alongside Gard's car. The window slowly lowered, revealing Director Lei sitting in the back seat.

Beside him sat a man in his thirties wearing protective glasses. He was a Third Limit combatant sent by the Secret Sect Review Bureau, responsible for Director Lei's personal safety.

Chen Chuan glanced over. When his gaze passed, the man straightened up involuntarily as if pricked by a needle, revealing a look of surprise. Chen Chuan gave him a friendly nod, and the man quickly responded in kind.

Director Lei said, "Cadet Chen, we have pre-set field organisms here, and the Realm Device can already connect."

Chen Chuan said okay. He picked up the Realm Device placed aside and put it on, quickly entering the area field channel of the entire convoy. This would ensure that everyone would be informed as soon as possible in case of any situation.

He then said to Wu Han and Wei Dong, "You two should also put it on and try it."

After the two of them fiddled with it for a while and put it on, he classified them into a sub-channel under him and set the listening mode.

This way, the two of them could hear the voices of others, but could not speak to the outside.

He then talked to Director Lei to confirm that there were no problems. After the inspection station checked, both sides started their vehicles and drove forward.

In the back seat, Wu Han and Wei Dong felt particularly novel. It was their first time using the Realm Device to achieve long-distance communication. The two of them were having a great time, chatting back and forth.

Chen Chuan understood this. If he hadn't been in a world with advanced communication in his previous life, his performance when he first put on the Realm Device probably wouldn't have been much better. He said, "You two, be careful later."

Wu Han immediately perked up upon hearing this and stopped staring at the Realm Device. Instead, he leaned forward and asked, "Junior, is something… up?"

Chen Chuan said, "Not sure yet, but there's a possibility."

Wu Han and Wei Dong exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of eagerness in each other's eyes. Sitting in the car was too boring, only able to listen to the programs on the radio. But if they could participate in the program themselves, that would be different.

Chen Chuan said, "If there's a situation, I'll deal with the strong opponents. You guys handle the others yourself, but be careful."

"Don't worry, Junior. We know what to do."

Wu Han said, his expression becoming much more serious.

He and Wei Dong had carried out many commissions, always being on the front lines. If they weren't sharp-eyed, didn't react quickly enough, and didn't know how to assess the enemy situation, they wouldn't be able to withstand it no matter how capable they were.

They weren't just good at charging; they were also good at assessing the situation and finding better solutions.

The convoy drove forward along the national highway, but after nearly four hours, they didn't see any signs of trouble. It was now afternoon.

In the sky, Chao Ming had been flying along with the convoy. Chen Chuan had tested it before. Although Chao Ming hadn't fully grown, he had plenty of stamina and could fly continuously for eight or nine hours while maintaining a certain speed.

With Chao Ming above, he had an extra pair of eyes, able to detect some situations early.

Looking up from the ground, Chao Ming was just a large black dot. Most people wouldn't pay much attention to it, and even if they did, they couldn't do anything about it from a sufficient distance.

The afternoon sun was bright, and the road was empty. The monotonous scenery made people's spirits sluggish. At this moment, a cry, neither high nor low, came from the sky.

Birds often flew over this area, so the sound wasn't abrupt. However, after hearing it, Chen Chuan realized that something was up. He put his hand on the Realm Device and said, "Director Lei, need to pay attention to the front."

After he notified them, the security consultant beside Director Lei immediately notified the entire convoy, and all armed personnel immediately became vigilant.

Before long, they could see a convoy approaching from a distance. They could vaguely see several large transport vehicles. It was usually rare to see such convoys on this national highway, especially coming from this direction.

At this time, two armored vehicles came out of the escort convoy, accelerated, and passed Chen Chuan, heading towards the vehicles in front.

As escort vehicles sent by the Central City Secret Sect Bureau, these two vehicles were equipped with monitoring equipment that could detect whether the vehicles opposite had shielding devices and field-interfering organisms. If so, it would indicate that the other party might have problems, and they could immediately send a message to the rear to make them pay attention.

Someone answered: "Judging from the license plate number and markings, it's likely a vehicle from Lianwei Chongyu of the Central City."

Chen Chuan's eyes flickered slightly. Lianwei Chongyu's main business is security employment and cross-regional transportation services, so it seems normal to be on the national highway.

However, because he had to deal with Zhao Qian before, he had some understanding of this company. Their business generally only travels between central cities and rarely goes to marginal cities.

And the road behind only leads to Yangzhi City. Although Yangzhi City also leads to a distant Wang Port on the east side, if you want to transport goods to the outer sea, you can go directly from the Jiyang District of the Central City. There is no need to go around here.

He spoke a few words separately to Bureau Chief Lei through the boundary token.

At this time, the other party's vehicle drove over from the opposite side and passed by them. It seemed that there was no problem.

After a while, Bureau Chief Lei sent a message back saying: "I have already told Consultant Yao, and he said that he has made arrangements."

Chen Chuan nodded.

The convoy continued to move forward. Another half an hour passed. If this continues, they will be able to reach the last checkpoint in less than half an hour, and then they will be able to enter the central city area.

Once there, it's not completely safe, but at least communication with the city can be established. The personnel stationed in various areas by the Administration are mainly responsible for protecting government officials like Bureau Chief Lei. If any problems occur, they will rush over immediately.

Just then, Chen Chuan heard Chao Ming let out another cry, this time a shorter and more urgent sound. He didn't see anything ahead, but he believed in Chao Ming's observation in the sky. It must have seen something unusual, so he said to Jie Ping without hesitation: "Bureau Chief Lei, perhaps we should stop first."

Bureau Chief Lei trusted him very much and immediately ordered the car to stop.

Although the escort convoy also did not find anything, Chen Chuan had discovered that convoy in advance. They believed that they might have seen something this time as well. For their own safety, they would rather stop and wait.

It's best if there are no problems. If there are problems, they can prepare as soon as possible.

So, after sending a message, the entire convoy gradually slowed down and stopped slowly one after another, only the two leading cars in the front did not stop, but went to the front to investigate the situation.

And at this moment, about three kilometers ahead of them, on both sides of the national highway, two teams of people were ambushing. They were hiding in pre-dug pits and observing the convoy's movements with binoculars.

At this time, they discovered that the convoy, which was driving normally, suddenly stopped, and only two cars came forward. They didn't know what was going on, so they immediately used gestures to notify the people ambushing further behind, and reported the situation to the radio there.

After waiting for a while, the other side sent back clear instructions, telling them not to wait any longer and to take action immediately.

On the national highway, as the two cars that had gone ahead were cautiously observing the surroundings, just as they were about to arrive at the ambush location on both sides, they heard movement in front of them and saw another convoy coming from the opposite side of the road in the distance.

Their attention was immediately attracted, and at the same time, they became more vigilant, slightly increased their speed, and went forward to meet them.

And at this moment, they suddenly noticed a rustling sound coming from the boundary token. This was not a communication obstacle caused by being too far away, but an encounter with a field interference creature.

There really is a problem!

They immediately activated the radio to send a message to the rear.

And at this moment, combat creatures suddenly jumped out from the guardrails on both sides of the national highway. They were all combat mantises from the Compound Eye Company.

It seemed that in the blink of an eye, they were in front of the two cars. Sharp knife feet slashed towards the car body and car glass, but before they could actually slash, they all fell weakly from mid-air, falling to the ground like raindrops.

Those who rushed a little further slid down against the car body, and then were crushed by the reinforced wheels in a crunch, with blood and tissue fluid splattering all over the ground.

The vehicles dispatched by the Central City Secret Sect Bureau this time have solid armor, and secret sect ritual patterns are also implanted inside the car walls. Once activated, any living organisms that approach will be subject to various physiological and even psychological effects, so the personnel in the car were very calm when they saw these combat creatures coming over.

But then their expressions changed, because as more combat mantises jumped over, they saw implanted combat personnel holding long knives, wearing goggles, and wearing protective armor jumping out from both sides of the guardrail.

One particularly agile figure suddenly landed with a bang in front of them, and raised the knife in his hand high.

The driver's expression changed, and he quickly tried to turn, but in the next instant, the person seemed to have crossed tens of meters and suddenly appeared close, and then slashed down with a knife!

The entire car body was torn apart like tearing paper, and after advancing for a while, it slid to both sides and smashed into the roadside.

The person who struck the knife shook the blade, turned the knife flower, and behind him, implanted combatants and biological weapons quickly crossed him and rushed forward.
