CHAPTER 164: 117. ARREST IN THE BUSY MARKET_2

The number of people in the slum is large; it’s truly a natural hiding place hidden in the bustling city.

The Peruvian Slums next to the Peru Market is the largest slum in the entire Earth Special Zone, with nearly a hundred thousand impoverished residents.

It’s a chaotic mix of characters, akin to the Lower City District among the Upper City District.

It can be indirectly understood as a village within the bustling city.

The second stronghold of the Apocalypse Society is established within the Peruvian Slums.

The ones most easily brainwashed and deceived are always the ignorant and foolish impoverished; throughout the slum, the Apocalypse Society has a large number of followers!

These followers can offer their lives for the Apocalypse Society at critical moments.

It’s for this reason that the escape route leads to the Peru Market.

When survival is at stake, Arabic only needs simple single-line communication to gather a large number of followers at the Peru Market to provide cover and support. Should any accident occur, these followers will hold back the unknowns at critical moments.

Zhou Shaoyang instructed the followers accompanying them to store their data carefully.

This data is his treasure; it’s his experimental material for studying the gift!

After more than an hour of traveling, the group finally reached the designated drainage pipe entrance below the Peru Market.

...

Angduo stood at a high point in the slum, observing the entire Peru Market below; he furrowed his brow and picked up the radio to call Chen Che and Kainan.

"There’s something slightly off; the number of people at the market today seems a bit high. A large number of people have mingled into the market. In just the past half hour, according to my observation, at least around 500 people have entered the market.

The population density is off; there shouldn’t be this many people entering the market at this time."

Sitting at the pumping station, Chen Che heard this and furrowed his brows. He quickly understood and said, "Zhang Quan mentioned that beside the Peru Market is the Peruvian Slums, with the second stronghold located there. In the entire Peruvian Slums, there are a large number of Apocalypse Society followers.

If I were the two yellow-robed priests fleeing, to ensure safety, I would inform my followers in advance to enter the Peru Market to cover for me.

It’s getting a bit troublesome. In this Peru Market, the majority of people are definitely followers of the Apocalypse Society. If chaos breaks out..."

Chen Che couldn’t help but tut. If chaos breaks out, it really would be like stirring a hornet’s nest.

"How many people have you deployed here?"

"A total of 180 people, dispersed in various parts of the Peru Market."

Chen Che pondered for a moment and said, "Catch the leader first; ignore the other small fries. The intelligence I’ve received indicates that the two yellow-robed priests are the key figures. Focus on capturing those two leaders!"

That’s all we can do now.

Observe the whole situation in the Peru Market.

Chen Che didn’t plan to stay here any longer; he went to the residential area on the outskirts of the Peru Market, stood at a high point, and observed the entire Peru Market through binoculars.

Chen Che spoke to Bobby and others through the radio: "Withdraw the people you assigned to monitor the slums and deploy them all into the Peru Market."

"There are a large number of followers in the slums. If you don’t set a blockade there, when chaos breaks out, the followers rushing out from the slums will only cause the entire scene to become chaotic!" Angduo responded, furrowing his eyebrows.

"You don’t have enough manpower now. There are already hundreds of cameras mixed in here; if chaos really breaks out, the less than 100 people you’re deploying on the outskirts will be utterly useless.

To capture the leader, you must redeploy.

As for the blockade there... I’ll dispatch my men to intercept those followers."

Just a chance for me to practice my troops.

Chen Che didn’t say the last part out loud; he had already notified Bobby in advance to bring Johnny and others over.

Training is for coordination, but without combat experience, no matter how much training is done, it’s worthless.

Though combat might have casualties, without the trial of blood and fire, the troops created will never be sharp.

Chen Che is deploying his private army to participate in this operation, partly to show An Nishang.

After all, An Nishang has plenty of good things, like the beggar’s bowl given to him last time, which he constantly carries, even though it hasn’t been used yet.

This thing can save lives.

If he makes a significant achievement before An Nishang returns, the rewards will surely be considerable.

Not to mention, the maid outfit should be An Nishang wearing it, not himself, right?

Recalling the forced process by An Nishang to wear the maid outfit, Chen Che felt a wave of embarrassment!

The maid outfit should be worn by women!

Moreover, An Nishang knows he’s keeping private soldiers; he must let her see his capabilities.

Perhaps he can gain more authority.

Upon hearing Chen Che’s words, Angduo hesitated only for a moment before choosing to trust.

After all, the favorable situation for the entire Special Operations Department at the moment is all thanks to Chen Che’s efforts.

"Alright, I’ll pull the people back immediately."

At Angduo’s command, all Special Operations Department members responsible for the blockade on the outskirts were called back to monitor the entire Peru Market.

Meanwhile, Chen Che used the radio to instruct Johnny to bring his men to set up defenses.

Under his command are 180 people, organized into nine teams, each guarding different streets and intersections.

Johnny and others’ shooting skills visibly improved after Chen Che spent a great deal of cost purchasing a large amount of ammunition for constant practice.

Dealing with these followers is almost like a piece of cake.

After all, although the Apocalypse Society is wealthy, it’s not limitless; otherwise, they couldn’t rely on exploiting followers to maintain the operation of the entire Church.
