Atlas of Heaven and Earth
Chapter 454: Recruitment
Chen Chuan heard something through the Boundary Token. He hummed and said, "Mr. Su, I'll wait for your reply."
Soon, he heard the sound of wind and a series of muffled thuds of bodies being hit, mixed with roars and gunshots, but it only lasted for a while before it ended.
Next were some very ordinary instructions. About two minutes later, as the footsteps moved, the noisy sounds gradually faded away, and the opposite side became quiet again.
Then came an apologetic voice: "Sorry, I kept you waiting, we can continue talking."
Chen Chuan then said, "May I ask, why did you hold back?"
Su Wei was stunned. "What?"
Chen Chuan said, "Of the seven people you knocked down just now, five were aiming for the vitals of your companion, but Mr. Su, you simply Controlled them without using any heavy force."
Su Wei was shocked. "How did you..."
Then he realized that the other party had deduced the situation from the sounds transmitted through the Boundary Token, and could not only clearly see the number of people on the opposite side, but also perceive the lightness or heaviness of his attacks.
It seems that this employer is not simple.
He said frankly: "The situation here is very complicated. They are all mercenaries, and they often fight to the death over a disagreement without asking any questions.
I didn't know what was going on just now. Maybe it was someone I knew who started it, but I didn't want to see him die in front of me. All I could do was stop both sides."
"I see..."
Chen Chuan heard a hint of desolation in his words, as if there was another story. He didn't ask any further, but nodded. "Mr. Su, what do you think of what I said just now? I am currently in Central City. If it is convenient for you, let's find a time to talk."
Su Wei thought for a while and said, "Applying for clearance in advance is required. It may take three to five days for me to get to your place."
After he finished speaking, the other side sent a contact signal. "You can use this to contact me when you arrive, Mr. Su. My surname is Chen."
Su Wei cheered up slightly and said, "Okay, Mr. Chen, I will contact you when I arrive in Central City."
After Chen Chuan ended the call, he contacted Base again to discuss some matters before finishing up. More than an hour later, Zou Handan arrived.
He waited here until the two had reached an agreement before bidding farewell to Tan Zhi and leaving with Zhao Ming .
One day later.
Su Wei walked out of the checkpoint at the station. The bright and sunny Central City was more vibrant than the usual gloomy and dim Convergence Zone, and he couldn't help but feel dazed for a moment.
It was difficult to get from Central City to the Convergence Zone, and it was equally difficult to get from the Convergence Zone to Central City.
People born and raised in the Convergence Zone are almost never allowed to enter Central City and cannot return to the normal world. Their worldviews are also very narrow.
Although he was a Third-Limit Martial Artist, he only knew some vague things.
To go to Central City, one must first have no violation records, then sign a Non-disclosure Agreement, not to reveal Convergence Zone information to irrelevant personnel, and submit a deposit while wearing a Boundary Token for monitoring. Any mention of related matters will result in immediate arrest.
He actually had a transit permit, which he had obtained to receive commissions from Central City clients, but even so, he estimated that the review would take several days. However, this time it was very fast, and it was approved almost as soon as the application was submitted, and he didn't even need to pay a deposit.
He guessed that this was promoted by the employer behind the scenes, which made him realize the employer's energy.
After standing in the sun for a while, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and came to the shade of a building. He contacted the employer with the original avatar through the Boundary Token.
After waiting for a while, the call was connected.
"Mr. Chen, I have arrived."
"Okay, please come to this location, Mr. Su. We will meet here."
Su Wei received an address. He checked it with the Boundary Token. A few minutes later, he took a tram, got off at the station, and followed the address to a beverage shop.
As soon as he walked in, he heard a voice: "Mr. Su, here."
Su Wei looked over and saw a handsome young man with an outstanding aura sitting there. He was slightly surprised. Although he thought that the other party should not be older than him based on his voice, he did not expect him to be so young.
However, being a Third-Limit Martial Artist at such a young age and obviously having considerable energy behind him made him more cautious.
He walked to Chen Chuan "s opposite side, greeted him and said, "Mr. Chen, I am Su Wei ."
Chen Chuan glanced at him. Third-Limit Martial Artists actually have their own tempers, and it is rare to see someone as cautious as Su Wei . This may be related to his personal experience.
In fact, few Third-Limit Martial Artists are as down on their luck as Su Wei . In addition to giving the money he earned to the children and brothers of fallen teammates, he would not accept many commissions without principles. In addition, he has always been targeted, so he obviously has strength, but he has never been able to rise.
He said, "Mr. Su, please sit down."
Su Wei pulled out a chair and sat down. He said, "Mr. Chen, I would like to ask, what exactly do you want to hire me to do?"
Chen Chuan said, "Like this, I have been recruiting team members recently to expand the team, so I would like to invite Mr. Su to join my team."
Su Wei was a little surprised. "Team? Aren't you from the command?"
Chen Chuan said, "It is the command. Let me introduce myself," he stretched out his hand, "Jibeidiao Central City Ministry of Defense Command Center, Executive Captain Chen Chuan , is now recruiting suitable team members."
"Executive Captain..."
Su Wei couldn't help but look at him, suppressed the surprise in his heart, stretched out his hand and shook his hand, and said cautiously: "So it is Captain Chen ."
He had dealt with people from the Base Command Center a lot, but this was the first time he had seen such a young Executive Captain, but he did not doubt Chen Chuan "s strength, because he had rarely seen someone who brought him such a direct sense of oppression like Chen Chuan .
He said seriously: "Captain Chen , since you invited me, I need to say a few words first. I said before that I have been targeted for a long time, so if you hire me, you should be prepared for this."
Chen Chuan looked at him and said, "I also said that your problem is not a problem for me, Mr. Su."
If the person targeting Su Wei really had great energy, Su Wei would not be alive now. In fact, even if they have a background, the forces in the Convergence Zone city cannot interfere with the garrison.
He suggested: "Mr. Su, if you are willing, I can arrange for you to join the garrison. The temporary establishment will be placed in my team, so you can have fewer concerns."
Su Wei hesitated for a while, then shook his head and said, "Never mind."
He didn't want to be restrained. If he joined the Army establishment, even if it was only temporary, he would have to abide by the Army's rules. He had no foundation or connections, and he wouldn't know how he would be played to death.
More importantly, he doesn't understand Chen Chuan as a person yet, and doesn't want to be tied to him right away.
Chen Chuan said, "That's up to you." It doesn't matter if he doesn't join. According to the employment relationship, the other party is only responsible to him, that is, the employer, so there is no obstacle.
Su Wei said, "Then I have finished speaking. Does Mr. Chen have any requirements?"
Chen Chuan said, "I only have one requirement, obey orders. You can rest assured that I understand your requirements, Mr. Su, and I will not let you do anything that violates your bottom line."
Su Wei seemed to relax a little, looked up and said, "Then I have no problem."
Chen Chuan nodded, clicked on the Boundary Token, and sent a recruitment form over, which listed various requirements and pre-arranged conditions.
Su Wei looked back and forth several times, confirmed that there were no problems, signed his name on it, and then sent it back. Not long after, the two received a notification from the platform confirming that their employment relationship was established.
Chen Chuan smiled slightly and said, "Welcome to your joining, Team Member Su."
Su Wei also showed a smile. He asked, "Captain Chen , what do you need me to do now?"
Chen Chuan said, "There is no mission now. The action will have to wait until after the New Year. The specific time is not clear. This is a long-term employment. Your salary and benefits will be given to you as usual. During this period, you only need to be on standby at any time."
"Nothing to do..." Su Wei hesitated, feeling uneasy about taking money without doing anything.
At this time, a contact came up on Chen Chuan "s Boundary Token. He glanced at it and stood up, saying, "Team Member Su, I have something to do and I'm leaving first. I have sent some data to you. I hope you can give me some suitable suggestions based on your experience. During this period, please try to maintain a good state and ensure smooth communication at any time."
Su Wei was shocked, stood up, and said solemnly: "Yes."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I have already paid the bill. The hot drinks here are very good. I recommend you to try them." Saying that, he walked out of here.
After arriving outside, he walked towards Wuyi Academy and connected the contact, asking, "Sister Ni, is there anything going on in the bureau?"
Ni Qianxi "s voice rang from the Boundary Token, saying: "It's not a mission. I have something to tell you, Xiao Chen. Recently, we investigated the Ferris Wheel Corporation's attack on Processing Bureau staff and the Fusion Boundary Company. Although we found a clue, Ferris Wheel sent its own team of Lawyers, and there are still no results."
Chen Chuan said, "Is it possible that they will take action again?"
Ni Qianxi said, "Actually, what I want to say is this. We also found out that someone went to Yangzhi City last time to investigate you. It was very likely that it was someone from the Ferris Wheel Corporation. You have to be careful when you return to Yang Zhi this time, especially after you leave Central City. We don't have much support for you."
Chen Chuan turned his mind. Judging from the interrogation of the captured personnel and the subsequent deductions after the attack that day, the other party seemed to be targeting him, while Fusion Boundary was just a side effect.
Only this point is actually a bit strange. Perhaps they think that after getting rid of him, they can target Meng Shu
But even if Meng Shu is eliminated, the Meng family is not without anyone. As long as Meng Lai , who controls the company's power, is still there, it will not be difficult to push another successor up.
In fact, after Meng Huang was eliminated, it was impossible to have any business dealings with Ferris Wheel or the Outer Ocean Islands.
If we put these aside, then maybe he is the focus.
Although he doesn't know the specific reason, he doesn't need to think about it clearly. He said, "Thank you for the reminder, Sister Ni. I will be careful."
