Atlas of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 305: Departure



After Zhao Qian returned to the Company Building, he immediately summoned the Resonator and a trusted Implant doctor into his office to conduct a comprehensive inspection of his Boundary Token.

After the two examined him, they concluded that there were no issues with him.

The Resonator said, "Supervisor , the person who attacked you used a projection fitting technique and did not directly tamper with your Boundary Token. Your Boundary Token only served as an observation and reception device.

I have checked and found that the other party concentrated the energy field resources of the entire street, but doing so in such a short time is only possible for Resonators with Resonance Nests and similar equipment, which is usually only owned by large companies, organizations, and the Government."

Zhao Qian asked coldly, "With such a big commotion, he couldn't have left no trace. Can you track him down?"

The Resonator replied, "I investigated afterward, but it may have been too late. The other party used many Boundary Points to transmit. If he erased the traces in time at the backend, it would be difficult to find him. Judging from the technique, it's not the Government's style, but we can't rule out it being a deliberate misdirection."

Zhao Qian looked at him, "If similar things happen again, how can we prevent them?"

"You only need to add an instruction to reject SimulationField data. There is no need for Implant surgery or to replace the Boundary Token."

Zhao Qian immediately issued an order, "Add it for me now!"

The next important transport mission was about to begin, and he couldn't allow any more abnormalities to occur. Although today's scene was nothing much, it must have been recorded by some security personnel and secretly transmitted to the head Company and competitors, so there must be no more mistakes.

The Resonator immediately walked up to Zhao Qian , then pressed his hand on the Boundary Token and the other on Zhao Qian "s shoulder. Blue bioelectric light began to flash in his eyes.

Zhao Qian could feel a tingling sensation like an electric shock surge up. This was necessary for a strong instruction transmission, and the same could be done on Boundary Points, the difference being that this was only temporary and could be canceled at any time.

After about half a minute, the Resonator said, "Okay." He then stepped back to his original position.

Zhao Qian looked at his assistant again, saying, "If anyone asks about today's events, your answer is that I had an inspiration in Martial Combat and am seeking a breakthrough."

The assistant quickly agreed.

Zhao Qian knew that this explanation was far-fetched, but before the upcoming transport mission, he absolutely couldn't be labeled as irrational or problematic. Once the immediate matter was dealt with, the negative influence could be slowly eliminated later.

He waved for the Resonator and assistant to leave. After the two left the office, he got up and paced around the room.

He hadn't participated in a mission for nearly five months. The recent operations below had nothing to do with him, as if it didn't matter whether he was there or not. If he didn't show up this time, there would really be no point in sitting here anymore.

Although he had expressed his willingness to give up his position after this mission, that was to stabilize certain people in the Company. If he could solve both the internal and external problems this time, it wasn't impossible for him to return.

Just as he was thinking, a communication suddenly came through his Boundary Token. Seeing the contact person, he quickly connected, using a respectful tone, "Director Xing."

A voice came from the other side of the Boundary Token, "The Escort time has been confirmed. Remember to handle it well."

After a single sentence, the call ended.

Zhao Qian then realized that the conversation was a prerecorded message. This director didn't even have the interest in a proper conversation with him, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his eyes.

He tried to calm his breathing and looked at the time on his Boundary Token. He immediately contacted his assistant again, "The specific time has been confirmed. Arrange the convoy for me, and contact the municipal government…"

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

On April 24th, Wu Bei , who had been monitoring the city's transportation network, suddenly perked up. After carefully examining it a few times, he immediately contacted Chen Chuan , "Brother Chen, it's happening. The municipal traffic department will adjust several road sections tomorrow at the request of United Power Heavy Industries."

Chen Chuan replied, "Received, thanks for your hard work, Brother Wu."

"No problem."

In the apartment, Chen Chuan ended the call and said to Gao Ming in front of him, "It seems that United Power Heavy Industries' transport is tomorrow."

Yes, they couldn't know the specific departure time of United Power Heavy Industries, but the armed vehicle team must report to the municipal government one to two days in advance.

The municipal government has no obligation and will not hide this, and from this, they can accurately deduce the time of departure, so they can prepare accordingly.

Gao Ming said, "According to the intelligence analysis recently disclosed by An Tan Company, United Power Heavy Industries' convoy should depart at the end of this month or the beginning of next month, which is also very accurate in terms of timing."

Chen Chuan asked, "Is it possible for them to change the time?"

Gao Ming replied, "Even if they adjust, it won't be more than two days before or after, but there is no need, because once this kind of transport operation, the convoy will be known by various large companies as soon as it moves out. It can't be hidden anyway."

Chen Chuan said, "Then let's wait for tomorrow."

On April 25th, early in the morning, a convoy consisting of twenty-five armed vehicles and three heavy transport vehicles drove out of the United Power Heavy Industries Company.

United Power Heavy Industries, as a large company, has a temporary weapons permit granted by the Government. In reality, once they leave Central City, no one will supervise these matters at all.

Zhao Qian sat in the middle armed armored vehicle. This vehicle was equipped with a small Field Entity, which allowed the entire transport convoy to conduct simple signal transmission with Boundary Tokens even after leaving Central City.

He was also accompanied by a Third-Limit Martial Artist named Chi Du, who was cultivated with family resources during the Zhao Family's heyday. He was usually responsible for handling some matters that were inconvenient for Zhao Qian to handle himself, and he would bring this person along for every transport mission.

The Security guard Captain "Peregrine," who was in charge of the entire convoy, was sent by the head Company.

Although, nominally, everyone, including Peregrine, was required to obey the orders of him, the supervisor , in reality, the specific command of the Security guard team rested with this person. Even if there were any problems along the way, he would contact the head Company via radio in the first instance, rather than seek his opinion.

Looking at the two-wheeled Motorized vehicles following on both sides of the convoy, Zhao Qian inexplicably felt that this Escort transport might not be so peaceful, but the powerful armament of the convoy gave him confidence.

He looked at the scenery constantly moving backward through the car window and tidied his gray-white dyed hair. Even if there were some problems, he believed he could overcome them.

On the forty-ninth floor of the Mysterious Palace Tower, in dormitory number one, Chen Chuan was standing in front of the window, looking at the dazzling sunlight in the early morning. At this moment, his Boundary Token rang, and Wu Bei "s voice came out, "Brother Chen, they've come out."

"Okay."

Chen Chuan left the window, turned his back to the light from the morning sun, and put on the protective gear that he had placed on the table in advance. Then, he put on the windbreaker, mask, top hat, and scarf that the General Affairs Bureau had distributed to him, and finally pulled on and tightened his protective gloves.

He reached out and picked up the Snow Emperor Blade from the knife rack, drew the knife and looked at it. After a moment, he slowly pushed the gleam of cold light back into its sheath, then left the dormitory, took the elevator directly to the underground garage. When he came out of the elevator, he pressed his hand on his Boundary Token and said to Wu Bei , "Brother Wu, I'm going over now."

Wu Bei replied, "I'm keeping an eye on them."

Chen Chuan walked to the Jiade car, pulled open the door, and sat inside. With a burst of muffled engine noise, the car drove out of the underground garage. After getting on the road, he quickly drove towards the west side of the city.

Although United Power Heavy Industries' convoy had departed earlier than him, he was not impatient. Even though there was a certain distance limit to when a Supernatural Entity could be activated, an hour's drive was not a problem. This time, he planned to wait until this armed team was far enough away from Central City before taking action.

When he and Gao Ming were formulating the plan, they originally wondered whether they could choose to ambush them on the way back, because the team was undoubtedly in its most vigilant and best state when it had just set off.

Gao Ming , however, told him that after his analysis, Zhao Qian was decisive and dared to give up at critical moments. When Molan Company had not yet been destroyed, he had cut ties with the Zhao Family. He basically didn't get the Zhao Family's wealth, but because of this, the collapse of the Zhao Family didn't affect him.

Now that all aspects were unfavorable to him, if Zhao Qian simply chose not to return, or stopped in another Central City, then it would be difficult to deal with him.

Moreover, even after Zhao Qian arrived there, he could still continue to hire assassins through a certain platform to deal with him, and even wait until the Influence disappeared before returning, so it was best to take action when he set off, which these people would never expect.

Chen Chuan finally agreed with this suggestion, although he had previously been more conservative in front of Gao Ming . However, he still had some confidence in using a Supernatural Entity to deal with Zhao Qian .

He had previously seen the scene where You Xing killed his target after accepting a commission. This person had targeted middle-level managers of certain Companies more than once before.

The results were all successful at once. Clearly, Company managers at this level were difficult to resist the invasion of such Supernatural Entities.

Admittedly, after his contract modification, the power of the Supernatural Entity might not be so strong, but even just a serious injury would be enough, because the medical conditions of the convoy were, after all, not as good as in Central City. All they could do was send him back in time for treatment.

However, since the convoy had set off, it was impossible to turn back for just one person, which would have the effect of breaking up the convoy, which was the only opportunity they could exploit.

However, because Zhao Qian was a Class B customer of city security, once he returned to the city, a security team would immediately come to take over.

At the same time, this person was also a Level 3 customer of Parallel Emergency Rescue. No matter how severe his injuries were, as long as someone was found, the emergency team could possibly save him, so he must not be allowed to return to the city and must be blocked outside.

However, there was also a possible extreme situation, which was that the Supernatural Entity had no effect, or that even if he was seriously injured, he would hide in the convoy and not come out.

Although it was possible, it didn't mean it wouldn't happen at all. If that was the case, they could only choose to give up temporarily, because a strong attack was not a wise move with the resources they currently had.

Chen Chuan drove all the way, and after more than an hour, he arrived at a prepared house on the western edge of the city, stopped the car, and walked out with the Snow Emperor Blade in hand. Just now, he had received news that the transport convoy had left Central City for more than twenty minutes. In a while, he could launch the attack.
