Chapter 376: Defense Setup
Chapter 376: Defense Setup
The armed convoy encountered no further attacks on their journey and smoothly entered the Mo Tie Mountain Estate. After a thorough inspection by the security team, confirming no issues, the personnel settled in.
The security team members dispersed and set up patrol points around the estate.
In addition to the brought security team, the estate also had its own security setup, and the combined force numbered around eighty, forming a considerable armed group.
However, the estate itself was vast, occupying an entire hilltop, so it had not only personnel but also a large number of bio-weapons and three Resonators responsible for countering and disrupting field domain information.
Moreover, the estate was equipped with electrified isolation nets and fixed firing points at various locations, forming a relatively tight defense system. Without sufficient manpower and firepower, penetrating this defense would be nearly impossible.
Not to mention, Mo Tie Mountain was a gathering place for the wealthy and upper class, with a significant number of patrol and defense personnel in the surrounding areas, making it even more challenging for a large force to be mobilized.
Indeed, this place was relatively safe.
Upon entering the estate, Chen Chuan walked around, observing the defense setup from the perspective of a Tier Three Fighter.
In the end, he concluded that this defense system was sufficient to deal with ordinary threats. Even if a Tier Two Fighter donned protective armor and faced a swarm of bio-weapons and a web of firepower, they would only meet their demise.
However, for a Tier Three Fighter, the defense was full of vulnerabilities. With just a casual thought, he identified numerous breakthrough points. Ordinary people would struggle to react in time under such an assault. Even with the ability to enhance their state through medication, it was only useful for sudden situations and not sustainable for extended periods.
When it came to the struggle for inheritance rights, it was a matter of life and death. Meng Huang would undoubtedly persist, and stronger forces would likely be dispatched. Chen Chuan was unsure of their nature, so strengthening the defense was necessary.
Although he lacked expertise in defense arrangements, he had the support of the Processing Bureau. Even if they couldn't provide additional manpower, they could offer professional guidance and suggestions. After contacting them and conveying his requirements, they promptly promised to send over a set of renovation plans.
As Chen Chuan walked around, the security team members he encountered respectfully saluted him. The reason for their respect was straightforward: his display of power in the square. Even those who hadn't witnessed it directly had heard about it from their colleagues.
At that moment, in the main residence of the courtyard, Meng Shu witnessed this scene. Yan Yi, standing beside her, said, "Miss, this is the role of a Tier Three Fighter."
"In the entire team, the presence of such fighters ensures high-level combat power. They can defend against master-level assaults and possess countermeasures within the team."
"With Mr. Chen's presence, even if he does nothing, the team's safety and deterrence against internal and external threats will significantly improve."
Meng Shu said, "But I think replacing him with someone else might not achieve the same level."
Yan Yi agreed, "Yes, that's why we had to invite Mr. Chen. Based on our assessment and comparison, Mr. Chen is the most suitable candidate. We are fortunate that you have such a classmate, Miss. If we can continue our cooperation in the future, it will greatly benefit the company's development."
Meng Shu replied, "That's a matter for the future. It's too early to discuss it now."
Yan Yi confidently said, "After today's experience, I feel more confident. We took the right first step, and that's a good start."
At that moment, a communication sound came from the Boundary Vessel. She said, "Mr. Chen is looking for me. He believes our defenses are inadequate, Miss. I'll be back shortly."
Meng Shu nodded slightly, and after Yan Yi left, she remained standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing outside.
Yan Yi exited the residence and took the internal tram to a stone pavilion, where Chen Chuan was waiting for her. Upon her arrival, he directly transmitted the document just received from the Processing Bureau.
"These arrangements need to be implemented as soon as possible. I can't predict when Meng Huang will take action, so the sooner you complete this, the safer it will be."
Yan Yi responded solemnly, "Alright, I'll arrange it immediately."
She promptly used the Boundary Vessel to assign tasks. In addition to the security team, the estate also had a dedicated maintenance and repair crew, and the necessary materials were readily available for independent completion of the task.
After making the arrangements, she returned and said, "Mr. Chen, I just obtained some information about that Fenyajin through certain channels, which might be useful to you."
"He is a master from the Outer Ocean Islands with connections to the Ferris Wheel Company. It seems he entered Dashi through their channels, and Meng Huang might have found him through them. If more enemies arrive, they might also be those skilled individuals."
Chen Chuan pondered for a moment. It wasn't surprising that the Ferris Wheel Company had ties to the Outer Ocean Islands. However, this company's presence was remarkably strong, almost ubiquitous.
He asked, "Does this company also have connections to Fusion Boundary Corporation?"
Yan Yi said, "Previously, there was no business interaction because the government had regulations prohibiting the export of Biological Components and protective materials to the Outer Ocean Islands."
However, over the past few years, Meng Huang has been closely associated with them. I suspect that he secretly sold some of the company's prohibited export products to them, obtaining benefits and, in turn, indirect support from the Ferris Wheel Company."
Chen Chuan contemplated for a moment. He thought that if they encountered enemies again, it might not necessarily be people from the Outer Ocean Islands. Yan Yi could investigate, and so could the Processing Bureau.
He speculated that this information might have been intentionally leaked by Meng Huang to divert the Processing Bureau's attention to the Ferris Wheel Company. After the Fenyajin incident, the Processing Bureau would undoubtedly intensify its surveillance, possibly overlooking other areas.
Chen Chuan said, "I understand. Please keep me informed if there's any further news."
Yan Yi replied earnestly, "I will inform Mr. Chen immediately if there's any news."
After their conversation, Chen Chuan returned to his residential area, which was located in a villa. On the hilltop above was the courtyard where Meng Shu resided.
The villa was spacious, with various well-equipped facilities and a separate training ground, resembling a private training field modeled after the academy.
Tier Three Fighters actually required a larger space, but this was sufficient for their daily cultivation. Moreover, there was an even more spacious field outside.
Chen Chuan placed the Jade Blade aside, removed his combat suit, and began his daily cultivation. After an afternoon of practice, he took a shower and changed into casual clothes.
He proactively contacted the Resonator squad assigned to him by the Processing Bureau and Wu Bei. After their initial communication, the subsequent transmissions were blocked for a while until a newly generated internal frequency password was provided, ensuring uninterrupted external communication.
A message arrived via the Boundary Vessel, and upon connecting, Yan Yi's voice sounded, "Mr. Chen, are you available? I've brought the promised medication for you."
"I'm available now," Chen Chuan replied.
Within ten minutes, Yan Yi arrived, pushing a small cart into the room after opening the door. Metal boxes were neatly arranged on the cart.
She stopped in the middle of the living room and said, "These are the special medications Miss promised to Mr. Chen. All the supplies for the remaining three months of the year are here."
Chen Chuan glanced at them and asked, "Where do these medications in the company come from?"
Yan Yi replied, "I don't know about this. Duke Meng Lei still controls this part, and all the medications Miss possesses are also provided by Duke Meng Lei.
"Although Meng Huang has sufficient personnel and holds considerable company power, the medication resources of the two heirs are consistent. Meng Huang's supply is no greater than Miss's."
"He can recruit and retain experts solely through these resources. However, according to Miss's instructions, all of these resources belong to you, Mr. Chen, for personal use or distribution to others. Miss does not interfere."
She paused for a moment and added, "But, if I may be so bold, I personally hope that Mr. Chen will use all of these for himself. It would benefit our team if Mr. Chen personally utilized these resources."
Yan Yi bowed slightly and said, "I won't disturb Mr. Chen any further." After saying this, she exited.
Once she left, Chen Chuan approached the cart and opened one of the boxes, revealing glass tubes containing a glowing, fluid substance.
These medications resembled the ones he had obtained from You Xing.
Indeed, there were slight differences, possibly due to different sources, grades, or other factors. However, the actual effects could only be determined through use.
For now, he didn't need them as the alien organization was still in its ascending phase. He estimated that it would take over a month for this phase to conclude, and only then would these medications be required.
Currently, his primary focus was on Essence Blood Gathering and Spirit Anchoring.
He had been working on the essence blood spirit's containment and had almost completely stabilized it. The next step was gradual cultivation.
As for essence blood accumulation, it required the extraction and storage of essence blood from the alien organization into the heart after consuming the medication. Essence blood is continuously consumed during combat, especially for unique techniques that require essence blood to enhance their power significantly. However, this is not typically employed so casually, as it is also essential for enhancing one's foundation. Additionally, in the event of severe injuries, utilizing essence blood can help maintain combat effectiveness.
The robust vitality of Tier Three Fighters can be partly attributed to this.
Taking advantage of the current absence of intruders and the abundance of medication, Chen Chuan dedicated himself to the next stage of cultivation, striving for further improvement before the next enemy encounter.
