Atlas of Heaven and Earth-Chapter 239: Revival

Someone is specifically handling it?

Chen Chuan was slightly surprised to hear Old Qi's words. Ordinary people can't withstand the invasion of a Supernatural Entity, especially with long-term exposure, which is even more dangerous. But it's hard to say, after all, this is Central City, and there may be some methods to deal with it.

He asked, "Are they from a Government Agency?"

Old Qi replied, "Not really. These unusual requests always involve strange things, and our clients know to avoid them. But there is a group of people who specialize in taking these commissions.

However, what they do doesn't seem to be very good. I know of one place where they went, but they failed to resolve the matter. Yet, the commission record shows that the commission was completed."

Speaking of this, his tone carried a bit of disgust and rejection, "And in some places they've been, people have simply disappeared, but no one investigates. Yet, they are still able to continue doing these commissions."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment. Judging from this, these people have a lot of power and may be very unconventional in their methods. The unusual request he saw earlier has suddenly disappeared, possibly taken by these people.

Old Qi asked with a bit of anticipation, "Little Chen, can you really handle these unusual requests?"

Chen Chuan said, "The origins and conditions of Supernatural Entities are complex. I can't handle all of them, but back in Yangzhi City, they would always come to me first to deal with these kinds of incidents."

"That's good then."

Old Qi thought for a moment and said, "There are many unusual requests. We can find ways to pick up some leftovers. Little Chen, you don't have to worry about these trivial matters; I'll take care of them all for you. You just focus on handling the Anomaly."

Chen Chuan looked at him, seeing that he seemed very excited, and reminded him, "Old Qi, I didn't know anyone was doing this before. From what you're saying, this group of people should not be simple. You need to think carefully about this."

Old Qi knew very well that these people must have monopolized the unusual request business, not allowing others to interfere. Doing a few deals secretly might be okay, but if they do too many, they might come looking for trouble. Chen Chuan might not be affected, but he could be targeted.

But he had debts, and he still owed his daughter's tuition fees. Chen Chuan had also paid his fine for him. Because of this incident, the Company would have a record, and clients would probably avoid him if they checked. He definitely wouldn't have any work to do recently, so he might as well follow Chen Chuan to earn a few bucks first, to get through the immediate difficulties.

He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Little Chen, I've thought about it. They won't notice if we only do a few deals."

Chen Chuan said, "Old Qi, you're more familiar with things in Central City than I am. Be careful yourself."

Old Qi chuckled and said, "I've been in this business for almost twenty years. I know what I'm doing." He pressed his neck again, and an orange light flashed in his eyes, "Little Chen, let me treat you to a meal. I'll check for these commissions and get back to you soon."

Chen Chuan didn't refuse and said okay.

Old Qi was short on money and couldn't afford anything too fancy. He ordered a few snacks from a roadside food truck. Chen Chuan didn't care about these things. He could even eat tasteless Nutrition Paste. Anything with a little flavor was delicious to him.

Old Qi was a little embarrassed at first, afraid that Chen Chuan would dislike it. But seeing Chen Chuan eating one bite after another, he himself felt hungry and started to gobble it down. After a bowl of fried noodles, he felt alive again. He then started a conversation, "Little Chen, how old are you?"

Chen Chuan said, "Seventeen." Counting the Chinese way, he was actually eighteen, but he didn't care about a year or two. People who dealt with him often overlooked his age.

"Seventeen years old, so young. I have a daughter, thirteen years old, already in middle school. Her grades are very good." When he spoke of his daughter, this originally dejected middle-aged man showed a smile on his face, and his eyes lit up.

As he was speaking, he saw a contact person flashing on his Boundary Token. His Spirit perked up, and he said, "It's here." He immediately connected, and a voice sounded in his ear, "Old Qi, what are you looking for these unusual requests for?"

Old Qi said, "I'm looking for them for a client. He's interested in them and wants to satisfy his curiosity. If you have any confirmed ones, send them over."

"Is that so? Old Qi, I'm telling you, don't get involved in these commissions. The Golden Shrimp gang is not easy to mess with. They have the shadow of the Moss Gang behind them, and they also have connections with the higher-ups."

Old Qi said in a relaxed tone, "I know, I'm just satisfying my client's curiosity."

The voice on the other side softened a little, and he said earnestly, "Old Qi, you're not alone now. Think about Xiaoqi before you do anything."

"Okay."

After Old Qi finished the call, he immediately received several unusual requests, which he then forwarded to Chen Chuan's Boundary Token.

"Little Chen, look, these are all unusual requests. I had someone look at them; they're definitely genuine."

Chen Chuan said, "Let me take a look first."

Old Qi looked at him, smiled, and said, "Little Chen, I know what you're afraid of. Don't worry, Anomaly is Anomaly, and Secret Cult is Secret Cult. I can tell the difference."

Chen Chuan was a little surprised, "Old Qi, you know about this too?" Most people can't tell the difference.

"Hey, everyone has a young age, right? Back then, I was trendy, and I went to the Secret Cult circle and even learned a few tricks from people. Later, I felt it wasn't good, so I quit." Old Qi's tone was a bit melancholy when he spoke of these things.

Chen Chuan looked at the commissions. They had both the exact location of the incident and the description of the events. They were much more detailed than what he had seen before. Just from what he saw, he could judge that they were likely related to Supernatural Entities. Now, the target was very clear.

He said, "Old Qi, thank you."

"Little Chen, you're being too polite." Old Qi said to him, "You've helped me so much and pointed out a way to make money. I should be thanking you."

Now that he had decided to do it, he wouldn't hesitate. Moreover, he felt that Chen Chuan was reliable because he was willing to pay to get him out. Besides, he had seen Chen Chuan take out an Unlimited Self-Defense Permit that day, so he dared to take a gamble.

Chen Chuan said, "Let's go to one of the places first. If it's confirmed, we'll take the commission and try to handle it."

Old Qi was also quick. He stood up and said, "Okay, I have a car; I'll take you." He ran out and soon drove the car over from the outpost parking lot, picked up Chen Chuan, and drove towards the location that the latter had given him.

Chen Chuan noticed the map. They were currently in the Majestic Light District, and the location of the commission was at the junction of the Majestic Light District and the Martial Determination District. If things went smoothly, they would be able to go back to Wuyi on the way.

Three quarters of an hour later, the vehicle approached the location. This was a shantytown located in a low-lying area, with simple board houses built everywhere. Looking through the Boundary Token, most of the residents here did not have citizen status.

As he drove along a downhill road, Chen Chuan glanced to the side and saw a bright Secret Cult symbol on a wall.

Old Qi also noticed it. He explained, "This thing is everywhere in the city. The upper levels are still okay, but the lower levels are already flooded…" He chuckled, "There's no way, after all, they can't see a way out, and if they don't do something like this to find some spiritual sustenance, they can't survive."

Chen Chuan knew that the lower levels he was talking about were the vast underground slums. No one knew how many people lived there. The order of Central City simply couldn't reach there, and it was conceivable that the Secret Cult was rampant there.

After driving for a while, the car finally couldn't go any further. The two got out of the car and walked along the uneven road covered with various boards and gravel.

Following the instructions of the Boundary Token, they advanced three or four hundred meters and came to a circle of simple shacks. Chen Chuan's footsteps paused slightly because he saw a trace of fading appearing on Second Self.

Although Secret Cult can also cause fading, it is not like this. He tapped his ear, turned off the Boundary Token. There should be no record of what happened next. After all, it was a commission that bypassed the platform. It is better to have less trouble.

Although his previous conversation with Old Qi may also have been recorded, he knew the regulations. Chatting is just chatting and cannot be used as evidence. Without proof of implementation, it is not a violation.

Of course, this was just in case. In fact, no one would investigate this kind of thing except for the relevant stakeholders. Even the people who resold organs that he had encountered before had not been arrested.

Old Qi spotted one of the shacks and said, "This is it. The commission was issued by the people living here. Little Chen, I am the client, I am professional at this kind of thing, come and talk to them, you just wait outside."

Chen Chuan said, "Okay, then I'll wait here."

Old Qi gave him a reassuring gesture, straightened his clothes, and walked inside. After ten minutes or so, he came out again.

He returned to Chen Chuan's side and said, "Little Chen, I have asked clearly, it is the same as the description in the platform commission."

Chen Chuan nodded. To put it simply, this commission involved two brothers whose parents had died early. The older brother dropped out of school to join a gang to take care of his younger brother's studies. The younger brother's grades were also good, and he was about to make it, but the older brother died in a gang fight.

This was undoubtedly a blow to the younger brother, but a few days later, the younger brother discovered that his dead older brother had come back to life. Although he couldn't speak or move, he just stood there watching him every day.

He knew that this was very strange and initially wanted to hide it, but it was soon discovered by his neighbors, who noticed that the surrounding plants had begun to wither on a large scale, and the cats and dogs they were raising had also died. They came to persuade him to bury the person.

Although the younger brother was reluctant, he also knew in his heart that something was wrong, so he buried the person with his neighbors, but the matter did not end there. The previous signs still existed. Now the people in the shantytown refused to let it go and demanded that he burn the corpse.

However, the younger brother firmly disagreed and picked up his brother's gun to guard the place. In order to solve this matter, the neighbors had to find someone who used to live here and now had citizen status to issue a commission on the public platform.

Chen Chuan had never seen this kind of Supernatural Entity before, but he had seen similar Supernatural Entity files. As long as he found the root of the problem, he would have a way to solve it.

Old Qi hesitated at this time and said, "Little Chen, that Xiaoman's child is very pitiful. He encountered this kind of thing at the age of fourteen. Will it really have an influence on outsiders?"

Chen Chuan looked at him and said, "Not only is there an influence, but the influence is very large. It's okay in the short term, but problems may occur in the long term."

"What problem?"

Old Qi asked subconsciously. Chen Chuan did not answer, but he actually knew it already. He sighed slightly, "Okay, then I'll go up and tell them that we've accepted it."
