CHAPTER 1023: CHAPTER 1030: A SCHEME WITHIN A SCHEME (PART 2)

Zhu Hong thought he was very clever, but how could Ling Chen not be aware of what he realized? Moreover, Ling Chen had much more experience than Zhu Hong, a half-baked amateur.

Since Ji Gang had already been successfully controlled, it was time for a major sweep of the base.

Picking up his phone, Ling Chen made a call and walked straight towards the main gate of the base. At this moment, there were more than a dozen members of the God Organization guarding outside the main gate.

Seeing Ling Chen approaching from a distance, the crowd’s expressions slightly changed, and they quickly picked up their walkie-talkies to call their companions in the base.

Ling Chen’s lips curled slightly, and with a light tip of his toe, the Nine Yang Qiankun Step was instantly deployed, charging straight into the crowd ahead.

In just a blink of an eye, the dozen men guarding the main gate were all easily taken care of by Ling Chen. After taking out the blockers, Ling Chen walked to the main gate, gave it a slight push, and the heavy door immediately opened.

Since Hu Fei had already shut down the base’s systems during the retreat, all facilities were in a dysfunctional state. Therefore, the doors of the base were all automatically unlocked, allowing free entry and exit. This was also done to facilitate their counter-attack.

At this time, a large group of people approached the base, led by Jiang Yunkai and Bai Huanjun, and apart from them, all others were combat personnel from the Secret Society.

Although there were many enemies inside the base, numbering in the hundreds, due to Ji Gang’s disappearance, everyone was leaderless. Faced with the sudden attack, the people of the God Organization were dumbfounded and completely clueless about what to do.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Chen led everyone to launch an offensive. Before long, the people of the God Organization were either dead or injured, and the rest were forced to the second level of the base.

"Kai, I’ll leave the rest to you."

Jiang Yunkai nodded, saying, "Don’t worry, they’re just small fry that can be taken care of in no time."

Upon arriving outside the laboratory, after Ling Chen and Hu Fei spoke on the phone, the sealed explosion-proof door of the laboratory instantly opened.

Entering the laboratory, Ling Chen immediately saw Ji Gang lying on a bed, connected to various IV tubes and instrument wires. Beside Ji Gang’s head, several doctors in white coats and masks were performing surgery.

"Fatty, how’s it going?" Ling Chen stepped forward and asked.

"Everything is going smoothly so far, no surprises," Hu Fei said with a smile. "Old Ji Gang must never have imagined that as a dignified expert on the Heavenly List, he’d be taken down by an ordinary person."

"That’s because he was unguarded. Still, he has no one to blame but himself for being so careless. Fatty, tell them to finish the surgery quickly, I have more important things to do."

"I know, I’ve already spoken to those neurosurgeons, and the surgery should be done in about ten more minutes."

"Good."

More than ten minutes passed, and news came from Jiang Yunkai’s side that the people sent by the God Organization had been completely dealt with.

"Kai, cut off their communication, make sure they don’t contact Lin Guodong."

"Don’t worry, I know what to do."

"Fatty, are you done?"

"Almost," Hu Fei stood by a computer, typing quickly. Meanwhile, lying on the bed, Ji Gang slightly twitched his eyelids, showing a look of pain, his body trembling slightly.

Moments ago, the surgery had been completed. According to the doctors’ instructions, Ji Gang was to rest until he woke up naturally. But Ling Chen was racing against the clock and didn’t have time to waste.

As Hu Fei finished inputting the code, Ji Gang lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, staring at the ceiling. At this moment, his gaze exuded a sharpness, not at all like that of a controlled person. However, after over ten seconds, a hint of struggle flashed in Ji Gang’s eyes, and gradually, that slightest sliver of consciousness was overtaken by dullness.

Watching Ji Gang sit up, Ling Chen walked over, scrutinized him carefully, and asked, "Do you recognize who I am?"

Hearing Ling Chen’s question, Ji Gang looked at him dumbfounded, slowly opened his mouth, and said, "Ling Chen."

On the side, Hu Fei said, "Don’t worry, although his brain has been implanted with a microchip, it won’t damage his memory. However, his brain has become a simple memory storage without any thinking or judgment ability."

Ling Chen nodded and asked Ji Gang, "Where is Lin Guodong, tell me."

Tonight, the God Organization’s personnel had been completely wiped out, including Ji Gang now under Ling Chen’s control. At this point, as long as Lin Guodong was caught, the God Organization’s forces in East Sea City could be uprooted.

All these days, Ling Chen had painstakingly planned to wipe out the God Organization and completely put an end to them.

...

Time ticked by, Lin Guodong held a glass of red wine, sitting on a sofa, watching the clock on the wall ticking, frowning slightly, with a hint of unease in his eyes.

"Mr. Lin."

At this moment, a young man walked in quickly from outside.

Seeing the newcomer, Lin Guodong stood up from the sofa and asked, "What happened, have you contacted them?"

"I’ve called Mr. Ji and the others, but no one is answering."

Lin Guodong said in a deep voice, "It’s been so long, could something have happened?"

"I don’t think so. Previously, Mr. Ji called in, saying the base had already been taken over, right? So what could possibly go wrong?"

"The base is taken, but the people weren’t caught. Ling Chen and his people know full well that the ownership of that base means control, so they shouldn’t give up easily. Ji Gang not answering means the situation hasn’t stabilized yet." Speaking of this, Lin Guodong changed his tone, instructing, "Immediately send someone to the base to find out the situation."

"We still have people in the city, I’ll arrange it immediately." Saying this, the young man took out his phone and began contacting his subordinates.

After making the call, the young man turned to Lin Guodong and said, "Our people are on their way to the base, but it may take some time."

"Why?"

"Tang Shiyun’s concert just ended, and the roads are jammed with traffic, moving very slowly."

Lin Guodong said coldly, "If driving doesn’t work, have them run over there. I don’t care how they do it, I must have news within fifteen minutes."

"Yes." The young man replied hastily.

"By the way!" Lin Guodong asked, "How many usable people do we have left?"

"Only the twenty-something security staff in the villa, and besides those sent to the base, a small portion are active in the city, roughly around forty people. Mr. Lin, do you want me to summon them back?"

"Over forty people? That’s too few!"

The young man said helplessly, "That’s the way it is, although we have quite a few people, many are overseas handling the aftermath, and they can’t come to East Sea City on short notice."
