#683 - Chapter 683 No Matter Who You Are

Hongmeng Academy is under the control of the council. Asking others to intervene won't yield clear answers.

Therefore, the best approach is to extradite Zhang Jue to Barto City for a remote, personal interrogation.

"Old Qin, I need you to coordinate the extradition of Zhang Jue, who caused trouble at Hongmeng Academy, to Barto City," Dongfang Chen said over the phone.

"Alright, I'll arrange it. Send someone over," Old Qin replied.

He was even more concerned about this matter than Dongfang Chen, because he was also curious.

...

"Old Qin, I just don't understand. What kind of magic does Dongfang Chen possess that makes you so obedient to him? You initially told me that everything was under his control. But what's the situation now? Eighty percent of the bases have been out of Huaguo's management for over three years, and the Huatong Chamber of Commerce and the Mercenary Guild have completely broken free."

"May I ask, what exactly is he controlling?"

"Right now, he's like he's vanished from the face of the earth. He doesn't show up, doesn't make a statement, and leaves behind a pile of mess. And you, instead of holding him accountable, you've disappeared along with him."

"I don't understand, what is the reason for all of this?"

Bai Li Ji was under a lot of pressure, and his emotions were somewhat agitated.

"What? Are my words no longer effective?" Old Qin asked.

"Of course your words are effective. But..." Bai Li Ji said reluctantly.

"Then that's settled. Execute it! The people Dongfang Chen sent will be arriving soon."

"Yes!"

An hour later, the special operations team members arranged by Dongfang Chen arrived in Kyoto.

After completing the handover and just walking out of the temporary command headquarters detention center, a group of people rushed directly towards them.

Without saying a word, they immediately attacked.

Judging from their power, they were all in the late 9th stage.

"Don't be impulsive, run!" Zhang Jue shouted.

"Dad!"

"Master! We're not leaving. We'll die together if we have to!" These people refused to leave, fighting and shouting at the same time.

This time, Dongfang Chen only sent five special operations team members, while the opponents had at least twenty.

Without wearing mecha armor, these five people were at a complete disadvantage against twenty opponents.

The team members tightly surrounded Zhang Jue, unable to leave.

Under the frenzied attacks of this group of people, they were struggling to cope.

Fortunately, they carried special tools, which were special metal rings to capture Zhang Jue: Immortal Binding Necklaces.

"Bind!"

Five Immortal Binding Necklaces flew out instantly, directly cuffing five people.

"Careful!" The woman who had just called "Dad" shouted.

But she didn't expect that one of the unidentified objects was flying towards her.

"Ah!"

The five people shouted almost simultaneously.

They dropped the weapons in their hands, trying to pull open the necklaces on their necks with their hands, but to no avail.

The reagent that suppressed energy flow quickly took effect, and their abilities rapidly disappeared within 30 seconds.

The security team members knew that the woman's identity was special, so they grabbed her directly.

"Don't move!" A special operations team member held a dagger against the woman's throat and shouted.

Logically speaking, official institutions are not allowed to use threatening methods.

But now the situation was urgent, and there was no other way.

The remaining dozen people stopped attacking, somewhat at a loss.

"What are you doing? Put down your weapons, all of you!" Suddenly, someone shouted from a distance.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was the security team members from the base.

"This is Kyoto, and it's right in front of the command headquarters. You dare to engage in a public brawl, it's simply outrageous!" The security team member continued.

After saying this, he led his men into the crowd.

Neither the people who came to rescue Zhang Jue nor the special operations team members put down their weapons.

"Put down your weapons, did you hear me?" The security captain shouted.

"Hello, I am..."

"Did I ask you? Put down your weapons first!" The special operations team member was just about to state his identity, but the security captain didn't listen at all, and shouted to the others:

"Don't you know that fighting is prohibited in the base? If you don't put down your weapons, everyone will be immediately imprisoned!"

The special operations team members looked at each other, feeling that the situation was not right. These security team members clearly knew their identities, but they were acting like they were just doing their jobs. This was very unreasonable.

They had just completed the handover, and they were going back on their word as soon as they left the door? Wasn't this just acting like a hooligan?

"Put down your weapons." A special operations team member gave the others a look.

The other team members didn't waste any words and quickly dropped the daggers in their hands.

The people who came to rescue Zhang Jue had no choice but to do the same when they saw the other side put down their weapons.

"Take them all away!" The security team captain nodded and didn't say anything more.

"Comrade, we are carrying out a mission..."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Do you know that you have committed a crime? I don't care who you are or what mission you are carrying out. Fighting in the base is a violation of the rules, and I have the right to detain you. Besides, can public officials use hostages? Whether you are a public official or not still needs further verification."

"Take them all away!"

The security captain didn't leave any room for negotiation.
