Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 723 Poison Shadow
Chen Chuan looked at Mr. Yang's wound and found that there was an alien substance wrapped around it, preventing him from recovering. It seemed to be some kind of biological toxin.

He had read the intelligence from the Processing Bureau before coming out, so he was not completely ignorant of the situation of the fighters from the Federation who had arrived this time. He had information on some of them.

He asked Mr. Yang about the attacker's attire and learned some information.

If what the other party said is correct, based on the existing intelligence information, the person chasing behind is most likely the fighter "Poison Shadow" from the United Nations.

This person is said to be one of the best fighters in the world.

He agreed to Mr. Yang's request without much hesitation.

"Mr. Yang, I can help you with this matter, because these people can also be considered my enemies. I came here this time just for them."

He had originally planned to raid the enemy's camp. If he could eliminate one of the enemy's strong men outside the camp, he would not refuse.

Besides, he was quite curious about the international rankings, and this time he wanted to take the opportunity to see what level these top fighters in the world were at.

Mr. Yang saw that he was still so straightforward and agreed without asking about the difficulty and danger he would face. In his opinion, the reason here might be simply because he was a veteran of Dashun, so he was willing to fight with him. Suddenly, a long-lost passion surged in his heart, and he wanted to do something for Chen Chuan.

He sat forward a little and asked, "Mr. Chen, are you here to investigate the situation?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "I want to take a look at the camp they have set up."

Mr. Yang nodded and said solemnly, "Mr. Chen, you may not be familiar with this road. I have lived nearby for 25 years. I know some small roads that can avoid trouble and get there very quickly, and it is convenient for observing the situation. After this matter is over, I will accompany you there."

Chen Chuan asked: "Senior Yang, don't you need to escort the people outside to leave together?"

Mr. Yang said: "They are all people who were born and raised here all their lives. If there were no strong men chasing them from behind, it would not be difficult for them to pass through the dense forest."

Seeing him say this, Chen Chuan did not refuse. The situation seemed very complicated now. It would certainly be great if he could have some guidance from people who were familiar with the road.

He looked at the man's wound again, took out a small bottle of medicine from his pocket, handed it to him, and said, "Try it."

Mr. Yang did not refuse. He took it, took a look, and said with emotion: "It's the same style as before." He pulled out the gag very quickly, sprinkled some medicine on the wound outside, then dipped his finger in the medicine, reached deep into the wound without changing his expression, and spread the medicine evenly on it.

After a while, the alienated substances that prevented the wound from healing were obviously contained, and the alienated tissue near the wound seemed to come back to life from death and began to repair itself bit by bit.

Feeling the effect of the medicine, he showed a look of joy, and then thanked Chen Chuan solemnly: "Mr. Chen, thank you for the medicine!"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "Senior Yang, you are too kind. With your status, we can be considered comrades-in-arms. These are nothing."

"Comrades..."

Mr. Yang nodded heavily, stretched out his hand, and said, "Yang Yuncheng, a veteran who has been out of the army for 25 years."

Chen Chuan stretched out his hand and shook his hand. "Chen Chuan, the investigation supervisor of the processing bureau."

"Investigation supervisor?"

Yang Yuncheng was stunned. He didn't expect that an investigation chief would come here. He was a high-ranking officer in the army and would hardly go to the front line again, let alone go deep into this place.

However, he had left the Ministry of Defense for 25 years after all, and his past experience might not necessarily apply to the current situation, so he did not ask any more questions.

He glanced outside and saw that the rain had stopped after a while. He then looked at the old mechanical watch on his wrist and saw that it was already noon. He said with a serious expression, "That man usually attacks during this time. Manager Chen, we have to make preparations."

Chen Chuan hummed and said, "The people are here."

Yang Yuncheng's expression tensed when he heard that, and the next moment, he saw the tent curtain fly up, and Chen Chuan, who was originally sitting opposite him, suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, there was a loud bang like thunder outside, and even the tent shook.

He immediately picked up the bone weapon and rushed out. When he was outside, he heard continuous thunder-like sounds. Sometimes they were in front of him, and in the next moment they seemed to be far away. Every time they sounded, it made his eardrums hurt.

But the noise soon stopped, and the source of the last sound seemed to be in the dense forest where they came from. He immediately followed that direction.

After walking about five or six hundred meters, he saw Chen Chuan standing there with a knife in his hand. The knife was not unsheathed, but wisps of mist were coming out of his empty fist.

A man wearing a cone-shaped mask and a black protective uniform was lying there. There was a dent in his chest, which felt like a whirlpool. His body and limbs seemed to be twisted along the direction of the whirlpool. He suddenly felt his breathing become heavy, and slowly walked over there, looking at the figure on the ground. The figure had a long black thorn in his hand, but the thorn was also twisted into a bend by an unknown force.

With his eyesight, he could tell that the man was trying to use the alienated weapon to resist the force, but it turned out to have no effect at all. As a result, both the man and the weapon were penetrated by the attacking force.

Chen Chuan then asked: "Senior Yang, is it him?"

Yang Yuncheng nodded and said, "It's him."

Looking at the half-dead man lying on the ground, he felt complicated. He really didn't expect that this opponent who seemed very strong and irresistible in his eyes could be solved so easily by Chen Chuan. He suddenly felt that he was old and out of touch with the times.

Chen Chuan took this internationally renowned fighter very seriously in the beginning, but after the fight he felt that this opponent was quite capable and was more than qualified to be an executive captain, or even an investigation supervisor, but that was all.

However, after reaching a certain level, it is extremely difficult to improve your strength a little bit, so you cannot underestimate those people who are ranked higher in the intelligence. It is hard to say what level those people are at now. You have to fight them to find out.

Yang Yuncheng squatted down at this time, stretched out his gloved hand to check, and found that the man's bones and muscles below the neck were almost all crushed by some force. He was secretly amazed in his heart again.

He said, "Manager Chen, do you want to get some information from him?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: "That's right, but it seems that he is not willing to cooperate."

Yang Yuncheng immediately said: "If Manager Chen believes in us, we can help."

Chen Chuan had no objection, but torture was not his forte. If someone from Yang Yuncheng could get something out of him, that would be the best. If nothing could be done, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Yang Yuncheng immediately took out a rope, tied up the man below tightly, then carried him on his shoulders and returned to the camp with Chen Chuan.

He first sent Du Ying to a tent, then turned back and said to Chen Chuan: "Manager Chen, the interrogation will take some time, and it may rain again today, so it's not suitable to go to the joint camp. Why don't you rest here today? I will take you there in person tomorrow morning."

Chen Chuanshuo said: “Yes.”

At this time, Yang Yuncheng reached into the pocket of his coat and took out a palm-sized object wrapped in thick cloth. He handed it to Chen Chuan, "Manager Chen, please accept this."

Chen Chuan did not immediately pick it up, but asked, "What is this?"

Yang Yuncheng sighed and said, "This is the lost item I found that year."

Chen Chuan couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Oh? Didn't Senior Yang's teammates take this thing back?"

Yang Yuncheng shook his head and said, "We were attacked by powerful creatures on the road, and we concluded that this might be because we were carrying this relic, so I left this thing behind when I was leaving.

But based on our analysis, this is most likely just a fifth-level relic, and no more than fourth level at most. It has value, but it may not be that great, otherwise the creature it attracted might have been even more powerful.

This item has been in my hands for all these years, but I haven't been able to figure out anything from it. Director Chen, I want to entrust this item to you. Whether you keep it or take it back to the Defense Department is up to you, but this is not our reward. We will give you what we promised you later."

Chen Chuan didn't care much about the reward, but he didn't refuse it and took it.

"Then I'll accept it."

When Yang Yuncheng saw him take it, he felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from his body and he became much more relaxed.

He asked again whether it was necessary to prepare a tent for Chen Chuan. Chen Chuan said no. Seeing his refusal, Yang Yuncheng did not try to persuade him, because he knew that Chen Chuan must have a way to spend the night since he had come all the way here.

Since he had decided to stay there first, Chen Chuan went to the side to prepare the tent. The place he chose was in the corner of the camp, some distance away from everyone else.

However, the entire camp was surrounded by bonfires, so there was no need to worry about any problems, and he didn't have to light another bonfire himself.

Since he had plenty of time this time, he made the dungeon a little more spacious. After he had made all the arrangements, he found that it had started raining again. So he said hello to Yang Yuncheng and said that he needed to practice and hoped they would not come near him.

Then he returned to the tent and sat down. He picked up the Xuejun Knife and with a light swing, he cut a glowing crack. Then he was ready to start today's practice. But at this moment, he felt something in his pocket getting slightly warm.
