Atlas of Heaven and Earth-Chapter 367: The Hill

The Atlas of Heaven Fetal Heart Chapter 137: The Hill. The numbers on the elevator flickered, and as they returned to the 1 floor, the doors slowly opened. Chen Chuan stepped out and glanced outside as he walked down the hallway.

Through his reflection on the glass, he saw the buildings outside and the slightly narrow sky. The azure sky was still bright, but thick clouds were pressing down on it.

As one layer of fog lifted, an even greater haze loomed overhead.

Commissioner Liang had said a lot, but Chen Chuan felt that regarding a world crisis, the Commissioner wouldn't reveal everything, only selected parts.

Moreover, the Commissioner only mentioned the Government's attitude, but the world was actually ruled by both the Government and Companies, and neither could ignore the other. So, what were the Companies thinking?

He needed to carefully consider this matter and the path ahead.

He walked along the long hallway, the light and scenery outside the window slowly receding behind him. Just as he was about to exit, a message popped up on his Boundary Token:

"Executive Officer Chen, an item has been placed in your personal storage locker. Please retrieve it."

Chen Chuan glanced at the route prompt on his Boundary Token and headed that way. Two minutes later, he arrived at a lounge where he received a set of keys from the caretaker.

After signing, he walked to a door at the back. The "storage locker" was actually a small storage room of about six square meters, numbered 0062.

He pushed the door open. Inside was a metal table, and against the wall was a corner cabinet taller than a person. He inserted the key, opened it, and saw that the interior was divided by shelves. In the middle was a long wooden box with a handle.

He took the box out, placed it on the table behind him, removed the seal, and opened it to find a short sword lying on a soft cushion.

The sword was identical to the one he had previously ordered, about sixty centimeters long from tip to end. He took the sword out of the box, gripped the handle, and slowly drew it. The smooth, bright blade immediately reflected his face.

With a "clang," he fully unsheathed the sword, turning it to feel its perfect fit, completely meeting his requirements.

He could also feel that the sword was also a mutated weapon, capable of growing in use. This meant he now had handy weapons for both long and short ranges.

Most importantly, he had a backup weapon.

Previously, when he fought Wei Wusheng, Wei directly grabbed his weapon, leaving him with no choice but to fight with his bare hands.

If he had such a short weapon at the time, he would have had more options.

He returned the blade to its sheath, placed it back in the wooden box, locked the cabinet, and left the Processing Bureau with the box.

He retrieved his car from the parking lot and drove away. As he drove, he couldn't help but think about what Commissioner Liang had said.

But this was based on an average person's situation. His required dosage would definitely be several times that of an average person, only more, not less. This would limit his Anomaly. freёweɓnovel.com

However, with limited information, he felt he could consult others, such as Cao Guiqi, to see if Cao had any suggestions.

Just then, Gao Ming contacted him.

Chen Chuan connected, saying, "Gao Ming, what's up?"

Gao Ming said, "Cousin, people from Fusion Boundary Company contacted me yesterday, saying they wanted to meet you."

"Fusion Boundary Company?"

Chen Chuan searched the Boundary Token. It was a company dedicated to producing high-strength biological materials and components. They seemed to have cooperative relationships with City Patrol, urban security companies, and the Processing Bureau. Many security guard's protective gear and bio-armor on the market were produced by this company.

This company was in the middle tier in Central City. Although it couldn't compare with the top companies and conglomerates, it was comparable to Melan's company before its decline and was currently in a rising momentum.

Gao Ming said with a smile, "The person looking for you is an acquaintance of ours, an old classmate."

Chen Chuan's eyes flickered. If there was an old classmate of theirs in Central City, there was only one person. He said, "Meng Shu?"

Gao Ming said, "It's her."

Chen Chuan knew that Meng Shu used to live in Central City, but she had never mentioned her specific background. It was only clear that her family was quite well-off, and it turned out she had a Fusion Boundary Company background.

He asked, "Why does she want to see me?"

Gao Ming said, "It should be related to you becoming

Also, there is an unconfirmed news that Fusion Boundary's founder, Meng Lai, is said to be preparing for a successor due to his advanced age. Currently, his grandson, Meng Huang, is in charge of the company's main business.

However, Meng Huang has not been officially announced as the heir. It is said that our old classmate is also highly valued by her grandfather, and Meng Lai has probably acquiesced to their competition.

This Meng Huang has been residing in Central City, is already over thirty years old, and has been involved in and managing the company's business for a long time. His power in Fusion Boundary is deeply rooted. It's not optimistic for our old classmate to compete with him for the position."

Chen Chuan nodded. He didn't continue this topic but said, "Gao Ming, I went to the Processing Bureau today and learned some important information. I need to talk to you about it. It's not good to say it on the Boundary Token. We need to talk in person."

Gao Ming heard the solemnity in his voice and decisively replied, "Okay, Cousin, you are my

Chen Chuan said, "I'll give you an address. We'll talk there." After sending the address, he ended the call and drove directly to the area where Instructor Wu's residence was located.

After waiting for a while, a silver-gray car drove over and stopped at the foot of the hill. The door opened, and Gao Ming came out, walking towards where Chen Chuan was standing, pulling at his collar. "Cousin, it's very windy here."

Chen Chuan looked ahead and said, "That means there are fewer things blocking the view, allowing us to see further."

Gao Ming came to his side.

Chen Chuan passed over a prepared agreement. "Sign this agreement. I need to report it upwards when I get back. If you leak it, we will pursue our responsibilities."

Gao Ming signed without hesitation and then looked at the specific content. Finally, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Chen Chuan told him the news he had received today.

This news was allowed to be told to two relatives. He felt that his Little aunt didn't need to know these things, as it would only increase her worries. Gao Ming, as his personal lawyer, needed to know.

After listening, Gao Ming not only didn't show fear or dread, but the eyes behind his glasses became brighter. He said, "Cousin, I always felt that the higher-ups were hiding something, but I didn't expect it to be like this." He smiled. "Actually, I'm looking forward to such changes.

In this world, most paths to advancement are blocked. No matter who it is, they can only walk upwards along the fixed steps, one layer at a time, which is difficult to overcome. Moreover, after reaching a certain step, it is difficult to move forward even a single step.

However, such a crisis makes previously impossible things possible. Under strong pressure, those structures that were originally knotted together, densely intertwined in one place, will begin to loosen and fall off, revealing gaps..."

He and Chen Chuan stood side by side, looking into the distance. "Cousin, you're right. Although it's very windy here, it's because there are fewer things obstructing the view, and we can see further."

Chen Chuan slowly said, "The world's changes will probably intensify in the next few years."

Gao Ming pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. "Yes, a new era is coming. We are fortunate to know in advance and can make some preparations ahead of time. It's not too late now."

He turned his head and said seriously, "Cousin, be sure to seize this opportunity. From the Government's attitude, they are excluding those Martial Artist who were not trained in the orthodox way. They cannot obtain anything from this or in the future.

The closer one is to the center of the crisis, the greater the returns one can obtain. The further away one is, the less one gets, only being tossed about by the tide of the world. Rather than passively accepting it, it's better to actively participate."

Chen Chuan nodded slightly.

He then said, "What is your opinion on Meng Shu looking for me?"

Gao Ming said, "Cousin, my inclination is to meet her. After all, we were classmates. She is now one of the heirs of a large company, and you are a Martial Artist. There is no conflict in identity. Even if you don't cooperate, you can still interact normally.

But now there is one more reason. Cousin, you can inquire from her to see how much she knows about this matter.

If she says she doesn't know about it, it means that she is not valued by her family at all, then just maintain the relationship between classmates and don't get too close.

If she knows, then we may be able to ask her some questions. The same thing is completely different when said in the eyes of a Company and in the Government.

If she really wants to recruit you, Cousin, then she may give you some things that you haven't heard before. At least we can have one more channel to understand."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment and nodded. "Then help me make an appointment."

Gao Ming said, "Okay, Cousin, I'll arrange it for you."
