CHAPTER 1003: CHAPTER 1010: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

At this moment, the sound of footsteps gradually approached from afar. Ling Chen leaned against the wall, watching the shadow appearing on the ground, silently counting the time in his heart.

As soon as the figure appeared in front of him, before the person could react, Ling Chen swiftly moved forward, locking the person’s throat and pressing him to the ground. Then, with a swift punch, Ling Chen knocked the person unconscious.

"Boss Tang, let’s go!"

Ling Chen called out softly, his pace instantly accelerated. Soon, a spacious area appeared before Ling Chen’s eyes.

Is this... an air-raid shelter?

Observing the surroundings, Ling Chen immediately recognized it. This air-raid shelter was quite old, probably buried by the police station when it was built. However, the God Organization somehow discovered its existence and used it as a temporary base.

Under the modification of the God Organization, the spacious air-raid shelter was divided into several areas. However, Ling Chen only saw rows of computers and equipment, not a laboratory yet.

Their goal this time was clear: to find those scientists and rescue them from the God Organization’s hands.

For a quick resolution, Ling Chen didn’t waste energy on stealth tactics but came directly to the door.

Seeing Ling Chen and Tang Guolun suddenly appear, the staff were stunned for a moment and didn’t react.

Seeing this situation, Ling Chen didn’t hesitate for a moment, quickly rushing forward and knocking down several security personnel on the ground. At the same time, Tang Guolun didn’t idle either. After dealing with a staff member, Tang Guolun occupied the person’s computer, searching for the information he needed.

Soon, Tang Guolun’s eyes lit up, watching Ling Chen handle the security personnel, he said, "The laboratory is to the north."

Hearing Tang Guolun’s instruction, Ling Chen’s gaze shifted to the north of the air-raid shelter, where there was a door, presumably leading to the laboratory.

"Boss Tang, I’ll leave this to you." After saying that, Ling Chen punched aside a security officer blocking his way and quickly headed north.

Passing through the door, Ling Chen swiftly moved forward. Before long, he saw several scientists in white coats ahead.

At this moment, those scientists were gathered around a workbench, seemingly assembling something, with scattered electronic equipment and parts nearby.

Beep beep beep!

At this moment, the red alarm above the laboratory suddenly emitted a piercing sound. Simultaneously, the door outside the laboratory swiftly descended, ready to seal the entrance.

Not good!

Ling Chen’s expression darkened, sensing trouble, he urgently pushed his speed to the limit. Instantly, his body moved like a gust of wind, sweeping forward. As the door dropped, Ling Chen swiftly slid forward and slipped under the door, almost grazed by the heavy door as it hit the ground.

Phew... Ling Chen exhaled, silently relieved. Thankfully, his speed was fast enough; otherwise, if the door had crushed his body, he’d be seriously injured if not dead.

At this moment, the scientists looked at Ling Chen, who broke into the lab, with shock and picked up tools from the workbench to defend themselves.

Ling Chen glanced at the scientists, then shifted his gaze to the workbench. Staring at the machine being assembled, Ling Chen asked, "What is this for?"

Facing Ling Chen’s question, the scientists exchanged looks, none of them speaking.

"No answer, huh?" Ling Chen went to the workbench, picked up a tool, and flung it hard. The tool hit a scientist’s forehead, knocking him out instantly.

"Gentlemen, you’ve heard the alarm, so you should know my purpose. I suggest you cooperate, don’t waste my time. Otherwise, I don’t mind taking more lives. Now, I’ll ask again, what is this for?" Ling Chen pointed at the machine.

A scientist hesitated, stammering, "It’s a chip implantation machine."

"You mean for implanting chips into the brain? So, the previous prototype was made by you?"

"Yes."

"Great." Ling Chen grinned; finally, his effort paid off.

"Pack up, you’re coming with me."

"Go? Where to?" a scientist asked.

Ling Chen replied impatiently, "Just go when I tell you to, stop with the nonsense. Hurry, I don’t have much time, don’t make me wait too long."

Under Ling Chen’s coercion, the scientists dared not resist, obediently opening the lab’s door and following him out.

Soon, they returned to the control center.

Seeing Ling Chen bringing scientists in white coats, Tang Guolun immediately approached and asked, "These are the ones?"

Ling Chen nodded, "They should be. Boss Tang, I’ve found everyone, take them out, have Fatty meet you outside."

"What about you? Aren’t you coming with us?"

Ling Chen smiled, "I can’t leave; if I do, someone might trouble me. Enough questions, go quickly; if you’re delayed, you won’t be able to leave at all."

"Alright, take care of yourself."

After seeing Tang Guolun and the others leave, Ling Chen stayed alone in the control center, watching over the staff. Minutes passed, and suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded from outside.

Ling Chen turned to see a fully armed SWAT team rushing in.

"Nobody move, hands up!"

Ling Chen smiled faintly, raising his hands compliantly, addressing the SWAT team, "Don’t shoot, I’m one of you."

Since the security personnel in the base were taken care of by Ling Chen and Tang Guolun, the SWAT team quickly took control upon arrival.

Before long, Ling Chen saw Xia Mutong approaching with several SWAT officers.

"Ling Chen!" Xia Mutong angrily demanded, "What’s going on here? You must give me an explanation."

"Officer Xia, as you saw, there’s a group of dangerous elements hiding beneath the police station. I was just fulfilling my duty as a good citizen, helping you successfully destroy the criminals’ base. Officer Xia, both publically and privately, you should be thanking me."

"Thank you? You..."

Xia Mutong was about to reprimand when a deep voice suddenly came from behind.

"Officer Xia."

"Chief?" Seeing the newcomer, Xia Mutong was surprised, not expecting the chief to be alarmed by this.

Immediately, Xia Mutong cast a fierce glare at Ling Chen and quickly went to the chief.

"Chief, what brings you here?"

"With such a big incident, how could I not come? Officer Xia, tell me what happened."
