Chen Chen followed the man and got into an off-road vehicle. As the engine started, the off-road vehicle began to drive inland.
Along the way, Chen Chen saw a city.
Although it was called a city, it was actually the ruins of a dilapidated city. It was indeed a city in the past, but now the city had long been dilapidated. Buildings with more than five floors had long collapsed due to years of disrepair, and the remaining buildings seemed to have been transformed into residential areas.
Around the city were fields that had been developed.
The other party did not invite Chen Chen into the city. After all, Chen Chen's origin was still unknown. They could only take Chen Chen to a military base and use this as a place to welcome Chen Chen.
Although this military base stationed in the wilderness seemed a little lax, Chen Chen's Field swept across and immediately saw rows of snipers and hidden troops in the dark.
"It's a little shabby, please don't mind."
After arriving at the military base, Anderson personally received him and asked his lieutenant to leave the room.
Chen Chen glanced at the layout of the room and sat down on the sofa on the side.
Anderson also sat on the other side. He went straight to the point. "Your Excellency Chen Chen, may I ask if you have any relationship with Chen Chen of Blacklight Biotechnology?"
Chen Chen answered without thinking, "Maybe you don't believe me, but I'm Chen Chen."
Anderson was silent for a while when he heard this, but he did not seem too surprised. "I wonder if you have any evidence? Please understand, it's not that I don't believe you, but as far as we know, Chen Chen of Blacklight Biotechnology died 378 years ago... "
"Actually, I have some doubts too."
Chen Chen smiled. "If I remember correctly, I shouldn't be so famous when the disaster of the Consciousness Stealer broke out."
Anderson immediately felt a little strange when he heard this. He glanced at Chen Chen. "Didn't you come from the Divine Fusion Empire? Don't you know that the name Chen Chen has long spread over there? Any believer of the Consciousness Stealer knows that Chen Chen is synonymous with the devil."
As he spoke, Anderson shouted towards the outside, and a guard walked in. Anderson then asked him to get a few books.
Ten minutes later, a book titled "The Legendary History of the Divine Fusion Empire" was delivered to Chen Chen.
"This is it."
Anderson put on his glasses, flipped to a page, and handed it to Chen Chen. "This is it."
"War of Gods and Demons?"
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes when he heard this. He only saw that the page was a painting in the style of an oil painting. There were two figures painted on it. Only one-fifth of the figure closest to the camera was shown and it did not seem to be human. Opposite this figure was the figure of a man.
Although the image was a little blurry, Chen Chen could tell at a glance that the figure seemed to be himself...
Seeing this, Chen Chen could not help raising an eyebrow.
"As expected, your appearance is indeed very similar to the one on the surface."
Anderson carefully observed Chen Chen. "If I only believed thirty percent of it before, now I'm fifty percent convinced. According to the legends of the Divine Fusion Empire, Chen Chen was the first psionicist among mankind and the first human to pledge allegiance to the Consciousness Stealer. Later, he betrayed the empire and fought the Consciousness Stealer in the sky in pursuit of greater power. In the end, he was killed by the Consciousness Stealer...
"Is it based on the Bible's story of Jesus and Judas?"
Chen Chen asked with a smile.
"Yes..."
Anderson nodded. "Of course, few people in the Joint Army believe this legend, but the name Chen Chen has become a household name all over the world because of this."
Seeing that Chen Chen did not continue to speak, Anderson suddenly turned his eyes and said again, "If you're really Chen Chen, then Blacklight City should be able to confirm your identity."
"Blacklight City?"
"Blacklight City is one of the five major forces of the Joint Resistance Army."
Anderson seemed to understand why Chen Chen did not know anything. He just explained decisively, "The reason why we're called the Joint Resistance Army is that we're composed of the four major continents and Blacklight Biotechnology before the epoch, and Blacklight City is one of the human cities built by Blacklight Biotechnology."
"Say no more."
Chen Chen took a deep breath when he heard this. He stood up decisively and said, "Give me the location of Blacklight City."
Anderson's eyes flashed. He asked the guard at the door to bring a map again. Chen Chen looked at it and saw that the so-called location of Blacklight City turned out to be in Greenland.
"Only the harsh cold can resist the invasion of the Consciousness Stealer."
Anderson said in a low voice, "Although after the Great Fusion 378 years later, all the fusion death epidemics have disappeared, the Consciousness Stealer has also become extremely powerful. After the world has lost more than three billion people, they still have to face a mature Consciousness Stealer...
"I've heard from my grandfather that the war between mankind and the Consciousness Stealer lasted for three months. Mankind's most powerful weapon, the nuclear bomb, fell on the land under the feet of the Consciousness Stealer like rain, but none of this could stop the Consciousness Stealer. It destroyed all human civilization and plowed through the entire human world. After that, it stopped near the Hawaiian Island in the Pacific Ocean and sank into the depths of the sea, lurking there …"
"However, just as the remaining humans climbed up from the ruins and rejoiced that they had escaped the disaster, we found that among the earliest infected people in Africa and Europe, there was a group of people who did not die in the Great Fusion. The Consciousness Stealer seemed to have let them go and made this group of people its believers...
"So, a force called the Divine Fusion Empire was established."
Chen Chen listened silently. After listening to the other party's story, he stood up, turned around, and walked out.
However, just as Chen Chen walked to the door, he suddenly paused. "General Anderson, which force are you under?"
"I..."
Anderson opened his mouth, but he did not suddenly fall silent.
Seeing this, a murderous intent appeared in Chen Chen's eyes, and at the same time, the atmosphere of the entire office suddenly became oppressive.
"Crack crack..."
Anderson found that the glass on his window, the photo frame on the table, and the water glass all had cracks spreading. At the same time, he suddenly felt his heart skip a beat as if something extremely terrible was about to happen in the next second.
Seeing this, Anderson finally smiled bitterly. He quickly said, "I was born in Liberty City under the jurisdiction of the Northern American Region. I was appointed by President Morrison, one of the five speakers of the Joint Resistance Army Supreme Council..."
Hearing this, Chen Chen did not speak again. He walked directly out of the office.
As Chen Chen left, the atmosphere of the entire room suddenly returned to normal. Anderson looked at the cracked water glass on the table with some shock. If he had not said what he had said just now, he was afraid that the other party would have killed him...
"Is he really the ancestor of the Chen family of Blacklight City?"
Anderson's eyes flickered. "In that case, the legend of Blacklight City is probably true. Chen Chen didn't die back then. He just chose to freeze himself, waiting for the day when he would make a comeback.
"And now, that day has come..."
...
Chen Chen ignored the many people in the military base who were staring at him. He just walked outside while thinking silently.
From his superb psychology, he could analyze that the supreme commander of the South American subdivision did not lie and everything he said was true.
However, there were some points that were very problematic. He very decisively exposed the location of Blacklight City, but did not provide Chen Chen with the location of other cities.
Coupled with the flickering eyes of the other party, Chen Chen could basically guess that there might be some internal strife involved.
Yes, the sorrows and joys of human beings were not interconnected. As long as there were people, there would be strife. Even if they were in the same force, there would be constant internal strife.
Obviously, in the case of confirming Chen Chen's identity, he decisively exposed the location of Blacklight City, taking advantage of the situation, and pushed himself toward that city.
As for what his plan was, it could not be clearer.
Therefore, Chen Chen asked which faction Anderson belonged to. Since he used Chen Chen as a spear, he should also be prepared for a backlash. If he did not even tell Chen Chen his own faction at that time, Chen Chen would indeed immediately attack and kill Anderson.
If he did not mind, he would even directly raze the entire military base as a show of authority for his return.
Although all of this was indeed very unreasonable, Chen Chen did not intend to reason with anyone because he had given the other party enough courtesy before.
"Blacklight City, huh?"
Chen Chen murmured silently. His expression flickered twice, and then his entire figure flew up directly in front of the shocked eyes of many soldiers, then accelerated with a bang, and disappeared at the end of the sky a few seconds later...
One day later.
Chen Chen came to Greenland, which was the largest island in the world, with an area of 2.17 million square kilometers, but the entire island was covered with snow all year round. It was the place closest to the North Pole in the world, even closer to the North Pole than the North Sea Continent.
The temperature in the coastal areas could reach above zero in summer, and the inland parts were frozen all year round. More than 80% of the entire island was covered by ice sheets. It was such a harsh environment. In the southernmost coastal area here, there stood a city.
Unlike the cities Chen Chen had seen in the Divine Fusion Empire before, although this place was remote, it was more civilized. Whether it was the huge civilian port here or the tall buildings along the inner coast, they all had a more civilized atmosphere.
Chen Chen stood high in the sky, silently looking at the brightly lit city below him. He did not expect that electricity was still running here, and at the same time, he could see cars passing through the city.
It was just that unlike reality, the cars here were very small, more like the old people's scooters.
Chen Chen did not disturb the city. Under the cover of the night, he slowly descended from a high altitude, landed in a dark corner, and then observed his surroundings.
The streets here were also made of cement, but both sides of the street were piled with snow. The pedestrians on both sides of the street were also in a hurry. They wore bulky winter clothes and shuttled through the city. Many of their faces showed signs of hardship.
Although it still could not be compared to reality, it was much better than the world in the Divine Fusion Empire.
Moreover, there was a very eye-catching place here, that was, a large number of Asians lived here. Chen Chen glanced around casually. Most of them were Caucasians and Asians, and the minority was black.
"Heh, interesting."
Chen Chen whispered. He walked onto the street, then followed the traffic, walking toward the city center.
A few kilometers away from him, there was a huge building. According to the plan, that should be the location of the city hall. Chen Chen could also see a familiar logo on the top of the building.
It was a black circle with a yellow shimmer on the outside. All of this was the logo of Blacklight Biotechnology.
...
"Beep, beep, beep..."
The moment Chen Chen appeared in the city, deep in the underground of the city hall, in a room filled with thousands of screens, there was a sudden burst of urgent notifications.
This room seemed to control the surveillance of the entire city. At this time, these surveillance images disappeared one after another, and at the same time, they turned into a unified image. Chen Chen's face appeared on the screen, then it was quickly zoomed in, and then a grid was swept across, intercepting Chen Chen's face.
"Important personnel discovered, X-112 beginning analysis."
A female voice sounded from the speaker. "Starting database comparison... Comparing..."
Then, another three-dimensional face of Chen Chen appeared on the side and began to compare it with the intercepted image. "Comparison similarity 95%... Target confirmed, target is the chairman of Blacklight Biotechnology Ltd., the highest authority in Blacklight City — Chen Chen."
At this time, the people working in the monitoring center suddenly made a commotion. Everyone's face showed a look of shock and surprise. One of the older men immediately ordered, "The central control computer X-112 has detected an anomaly. Report it immediately. Little Zhang, go inform the director, hurry!"
Hearing this order, a young man on the side immediately nodded and then ran out of the monitoring room.
After a while, an old man with white hair and beard walked in with a frown. "Old Hu, what's the matter that's so urgent?"
"Director, look at the surveillance."
The man quickly pointed to the rows of surveillance cameras. At this time, thousands of surveillance cameras were still broadcasting live images of Chen Chen. When he walked across a road, the surveillance cameras on the road immediately turned to Chen Chen and watched him leave. Then, the next set of surveillance cameras continued, and even other images of the city were no longer played.
"This is..."
Seeing this, the old man showed a look of surprise. He looked to the side and the man immediately explained, "Just now, X-112 has sent a prompt. It said that this person is the highest authority in Blacklight City, called Chen Chen!"
"What?"
Hearing this, the old man's expression suddenly changed. "This is impossible. Chen Chen died more than three hundred years ago. How could he appear here?"
