Atlas of Heaven and Man

Inside the Defense Department's command center, everyone stared blankly at the scene on the screen.

To be honest, they hadn't clearly seen Chen Chuan's final counterattack, as the displayed images were blurred. However, based on the final result, they all felt something indescribable—utter destruction!

What about holding out for three minutes?

Who exactly needed to hold out?

There was an absurd feeling that the roles of the two sides had been reversed.

Someone looked at the time and couldn't help but feel dazed, because from the confrontation to the end of the attack, it hadn't even taken twenty seconds.

Liang Special Envoy looked up and said, "Connect me to Captain Chen."

"Yes… yes!"

The liaison officer's mind seemed to still be reeling from the scene on the screen. After hearing the order, he paused for a moment before reacting, and then hurriedly established contact between the two.

Chen Chuan responded forcefully, "Okay!"

Immediately, he saw the method for handling the split-off transmitted from the interface device. First, he needed to use a capture device to find and control the split-off, then find a way to kill it, and finally sprinkle a unique liquid medicine on the remains to ensure that there were no remnants.

These items could be found in the reaction team's vehicle, as each team was tasked with destroying split-offs when necessary, in addition to their recovery mission.

He walked to the front and searched the overturned vehicle, quickly finding what he needed. Then, he carried the box to the rift.

The split-off was behind it. Because a stable opening had formed here, he could still return the way he came after entering. After taking a few glances, he walked inside.

At this time, those hiding around, the mercenaries hired by various companies, all breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they all pointed their guns at the rift, they hadn't fired a single shot from beginning to end.

Because they were all intimidated by the destructive power of those few people and the almost invincible power of Chen Chuan's final attack, no one dared to fire a shot.

If it weren't for the fact that the other side didn't seem to be paying attention to them, they would have already prepared to evacuate. In fact, some people had already begun to retreat quietly.

After Chen Chuan crossed the rift, he saw a bright scene in front of him, as if filled with strong light. Standing here, he could clearly feel the essence pouring in.

However, he also knew that this place was very dangerous, and something could come over from the other side at any time, so he shouldn't stay for too long. So, he lifted the sensor light on the briefcase and shook it. Soon, there was movement in a certain direction, the light began to flash, and it also emitted a buzzing sound.

Following the guidance of the indicator light, he soon found the location, discovering that it was a shrunken, gray-white, sponge-like thing, only the size of a fist, with some wrinkles on its body, and wrapped in a layer of crystal-clear, translucent liquid, looking like it was suspended there.

Chen Chuan could feel that after arriving here, a lot of essence poured toward this thing. It turned out that not only was he absorbing essence, but this thing was also gathering it.

But thinking about it, the 蝜蝂 (fù mǔ, a mythical creature that only knows how to accumulate things on its back until it dies) and similar things were originally used to resist external invasions, especially after being modified. They might instinctively make such a move, because the essence also included deep-level contaminants.

He opened the capture device on the briefcase and placed it on the ground, then walked up with the Snow Sovereign Saber.

At this time, the split-off seemed to sense something and trembled slightly, but it didn't have any intention of escaping to other places. This was because after the mother body was modified, the split-off would not struggle when facing the capture device, so even ordinary reaction units could complete the recovery and destruction.

Chen Chuan arrived in front and decisively slashed down, directly cutting it in half.

But the moment the blade passed over the split-off, the blade buzzed and trembled. Wisps of radiant light mist, like silk threads, emerged from the Snow Sovereign Saber. They fluttered forward, entangled the split-off that had been split open, and finally completely wrapped it.

At this moment, everything seemed to slow down, there was an illusion of time stopping, but only for a moment. Then, the light mist retracted again, and the two halves of the split-off, dried up and withered, and obviously lifeless, fell to the ground.

Chen Chuan held the Snow Sovereign Saber and took a look at it in front of him. This saber seemed to have undergone some kind of change, and he felt that the saber was currently in a state of dormancy.

He turned his thoughts. Initially, the things inside were brought out from Xiong Jianyi, and were very likely related to the Ferris Wheel Company. He just didn't know what exactly it was, but he intuitively felt that this change was beneficial to him.

But now was not the time to investigate.

He glanced at the remains left by the split-off, then returned to the briefcase. After opening it, he took out the bottle of destruction liquid, unscrewed the metal cap, and poured the liquid on it, and also sprinkled a circle around it according to the instructions. As soon as this thing came into contact, it seemed to be slowly dissolved, and then completely disappeared into the pool of liquid.

At the same time, the Great Rift seemed to have undergone some changes. Not only did it stop expanding outward, but it also felt like it had shrunk inward a little, but the speed was relatively slow.

Inside the Defense Department's command center, the active consciousness sentry tower spoke, "Split-off field detected to have disappeared… Rift generation stopped… Split-off judged to have been destroyed."

The people in the command center couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and smiles appeared on their faces.

Now, almost all the other split-offs have been recovered or destroyed, and this place was the most affected by this wave of splitting. If it continued, it was very likely to cause a major crisis, but now it has been eliminated.

After confirming, Special Envoy Liang immediately instructed that one of the two emergency response teams sent here for rescue should return, and the Defense Department should arrange for another reaction unit to come over.

Then, he looked at the screen again, staring at the Great Rift.

After a moment, Chen Chuan's figure walked out of the rift. At this moment, he carefully felt that his mental strength had greatly increased under the impetus of this battle.

And what deserves the most attention is that through these few battles, his Second Self has already crossed the boundary of the Third Limit in one fell swoop!

Although his Second Self doesn't have his current strength, there is no doubt that he has steadily reached the level of the same limit.

Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ In ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ Book ⊥ ⊥ Bar ⊥ ⊥ First ⊥ Issue!

Once the two merge, although the power cannot be said to double, the physical fitness is indeed greatly improved. If it is raised to the current level, the mental strength should also be superimposed, but he feels that the higher the level, the more difficult it seems to be, but fortunately, there is no shortage of opponents in this world.

At this moment, the sound of armored vehicles came from outside. He looked up and saw two armored vehicles driving towards here, which were the two vehicles of his teammates.

Yuan Qiuyuan's voice rang out in the interface device, "Captain! We're here… Alas, Captain, have you already finished fighting?"

At this time, everyone in their team heard a rustling sound from the interface device, and then the liaison officer said there, "Captain Chen, and several executors, because the rift in your area is detected to be the largest in the central city, please be stationed here first. Later, a troop will come to deploy defenses and interception works. Please cooperate."

Chen Chuan said, "I understand."

He looked outside. This rift was indeed very conspicuous. Later, some people might come here, so it was indeed necessary to guard this place well. But this was also good, he could have more time to absorb essence.

At the same time, in the Weiguang District of the Central City, on the seventieth floor of the training group's building.

Chen Bitong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scene outside. The splitting rifts flickered from time to time, overlapping with the bright red glow on top, just like twisted fireworks.

Fang Zhixin and Yu Lie were standing behind him, one leaning against the wall, and the other standing with his hands in his pockets, tossing a coin with his other hand.

Yu Lie looked very casual at the moment, but his eyes glanced at Chen Bitong from time to time. However, this action didn't make people suspicious, because everyone knew that he was a fanatical admirer of Chen Bitong, and he usually had this habit, and everyone was used to it.

At this time, a notification sound came from Fang Zhixin's interface device. He stood up straight, looked at it for a while, and raised his head and said, "Teacher, the Political Affairs Office has returned your application for battle… Chairman Quan… he hopes you can stay in the Weiguang District, saying that this place needs you more."

At this time, there was another sound from the interface device. He switched over to take a look, but this time it was from the Defense Department, and said again, "The Defense Department has also replied. Because the situation is tense, the Weiguang District needs to maintain absolute stability, so it is not recommended that you go out, teacher."

Chen Bitong hummed, he said, "Are you ready?"

Fang Zhixin replied, "Ready."

There was no reaction on Yu Lie's face, but his heart was shocked.

What is ready? What is Chen Bitong going to do? Why doesn't he know? Should he report it there at this time?

Or wait?

Just as he was thinking this, Chen Bitong stood for a while and said, "Let's go." With that, he turned and walked out, and Fang Zhixin followed behind. At the door, he turned his head and called out to Yu Lie, "Let's go, what are you standing there for?"

Yu Lie grinned, said okay, grabbed the coin, and followed. His face was still the same indifferent and interested look, but his heart suddenly became a little nervous because of some unknown.
