Chapter 105: Chapter 105 Defense Line Deployment_1

When Li Huosheng and his men, carrying a heavy machine gun, got out of the vehicle, Ye Xiangfeng, standing at the door, was instantly stunned.

As for Wang Shuwen, who had just arrived at the door to inquire about the situation, she was scared pale.

After all, anyone who saw 15 strong men armed with guns getting out of a vehicle and blocking your house would panic.

“Hello, I am the head of the security team, Li Huosheng. From now on, I will be fully responsible for your safety,” Li Huosheng quickly stepped forward, offering the couple what he thought was an appropriate smile.

However, upon seeing him, Ye Xiangfeng and his wife Wang Shuwen became even more anxious.

Previously, Chen Dalong, in order to maintain the image of a good boss, was suited and booted.

But Li Huosheng was different; the weather was so hot that he only wore a vest, his arm tattoos of fierce tigers were on display, and the red hair he had previously dyed made it clear he was not to be trifled with.

There was a reason why Li Huosheng was valued by Chen Dalong, at least in terms of reading people and situations, he could score full marks.

Seeing the couple’s expressions, he immediately dropped the pleasantries and said seriously, “If you don’t have any other business, please stay indoors, lock the doors and windows, and if anything happens, just shout, and we will be standing guard outside until the crisis is over.”

With that, he waved to his men behind him.

The rest understood immediately, swiftly deploying into a defensive formation centred around the old house.

They paired up, guns pointed outward, vigilant in all directions, and even formed a patrol team; everything was so orderly.

Li Huosheng couldn’t help but inwardly praise them, feeling that they were truly like retired soldiers. If it were the other security guards from the company, they might not even have been able to stand correctly.

The Ye couple saw this too, and while the so-called head of the security team in front of them made them somewhat uneasy, the crisp actions and perfect postures of the other team members made them seem so professional.

After exchanging a glance, the two quietly closed the door.

“Old Ye, do you think this is real? The scale of this operation is just too big! How much did Xiao Feng spend?” Wang Shuwen said as she couldn’t help but start sobbing.

“It should be real. With so many of them, if they really wanted to harm us, they could just rush in without firearms, and we wouldn’t be able to stop them.”

“Don’t cry. Xiao Feng has done so much because he wants us to live well,” Ye Xiangfeng comforted her.

The situation at the Ye family was naturally noticed by the neighbors.

After all, there were so many of them, and they were all armed.

What was more extravagant were the heavy machine guns and rocket launchers placed at the door; such weaponry should not be in the possession of ordinary people.

So, it wasn’t long before concerned neighbors called the police.

Before long, a City Guard Team arrived, but their expressions were fairly calm.

If there was a group of people, with only one or two carrying firearms, that might be dangerous.

But fully 15 people with uniform firearms, along with heavy machine guns and rocket launchers, one could figure using common sense, that even if it wasn’t an official agency, it must be a registered security company.

They came to reassure the residents nearby.

Indeed, after they arrived, they simply learned about the situation, explained the circumstances to the resident who had called the police and then left.

When the neighbors learned the truth, all were amazed; although they didn’t dare to visit personally, Ye Xiangfeng and Wang Shuwen’s phones were continuously ringing.

…

On the other side, Chen Dalong had arrived at West Tai Street.

This street was one of Yang City’s main thoroughfares more than a dozen years ago, but with the gradual development of the New Urban Area, the once bustling scene was no more.

By the time Chen Dalong and his team arrived, the area had been cordoned off with barbed wire fences, forming a quarantine zone.

At that moment, over a thousand members of the City Guard Team were busy setting up defenses, but Chen noticed with a furrowed brow that less than a third of them were armed with firearms, and most had anxious expressions on their faces.

Clearly, although there were many people here, the vast majority were new recruits without combat experience.

These freshly recruited members had not even completed basic training, and their combat and organizational abilities couldn’t even compare to those of his security company’s personnel.

As Chen furrowed his brow in worry, an excited voice called out beside him, “Brother Chen, I didn’t expect you to come to West Tai Street as well. I feel much more at ease with you here.”

Hearing the voice, Chen turned his head and saw it was Commander Feng Jun from the 7th Battalion.

Previously, after being attacked by a group of Mutated Monkeys and calling for help, Chen went to eliminate the group and the commander’s attitude made a 180-degree turn, immediately adopting a familiar tone.

“It’s Feng! I really didn’t expect to be so fated as to meet you here again.” Chen quickly went over with an enthusiastic greeting.

Meeting an acquaintance at a time like this was quite good, as at least there would be someone to help out when it really mattered.

“Heh heh, I wouldn’t count it as fate. When the battalion commander was assigning tasks, I went to complain that our 7th Battalion had suffered too many casualties to handle a very tough mission, and then I was transferred here,” Feng Jun explained.

“When I first heard the news, I nearly cursed out loud because this is a key defensive line! However, after arriving and seeing you here, Brother Chen, I instantly felt relieved. It seems the battalion commander still takes good care of me,” Feng Jun said with a proud look on his face.

Chen had been listening quietly, but when he heard the words “key defensive line”, he suddenly became uneasy.

“Wait a minute, Commander Feng, did you say this place is a key defensive line?” Chen hastily inquired.

“Yes! Back in the day, West Tai Street was so prosperous that the sewers built were wide and large, and they’re connected with the sewer system of the nearby areas, which is why there’s an especially large number of Mutated Creatures here,” Feng Jun elaborated.

In conclusion, he didn’t forget to give Chen a compliment. “But with you here, Brother Chen, I feel reassured.”

The corners of Chen’s mouth twitched involuntarily; he really wanted to say: You’d better stay on your guard.

Because he wasn’t even confident in himself, especially since the circumstances here were nothing like those in the Donglin Mountain Range.

Although it had been more dangerous in the Donglin Mountain Range, there were messengers secretly protecting him, so in fact, he was quite safe.

But here, he truly only had his own abilities to rely on for fighting, even if he wouldn’t have to face Mutated Creatures that were too powerful.

But as the saying goes, even ants can bite an elephant to death, and facing the overwhelming number of Mutated Insects, he was panicking!

Furthermore, those Mutated Mice that had reached the Second Stage were certainly capable of injuring him.

The more Chen thought, the more he worried. And just at that moment, the members of the City Guard Team began to retreat.

And it wasn’t just a team or two, but nearly 800 people started to withdraw.

This time, Chen was genuinely alarmed.
