To prevent anyone from suddenly rising from the dead and stabbing him in the back, Chen Wang kept his defensive Law Artifact activated, and then cleanly and efficiently severed the heads of everyone present.

"This is all money, damn it," Chen Wang couldn't help but say.

The Bunny Girl on the ground had just attacked Jin Jun, which caught Chen Wang's attention, but by then the Bunny Girl was already dead.

"What a pity, she has a great figure."

Chen Wang sighed for a moment, then looked away; that was all.

He searched the men, and the two Revolver on the old man, whose body was wrapped in bandages, were quite powerful.

What's particularly impressive is the Sniper Rifle in the middle-aged man Ruan Ling's box, equipped with Armor-Piercing Bullet that can penetrate tank walls.

"I've had a feeling that someone is spying on me these past few days, and it must be this guy."

Chen Wang frowned.

Judging from their performance just now, they are all at least Tier 3 in both combat and magic, High-Level Soldier who follow the hybrid strategy, and they are extremely experienced with excellent marksmanship. Combat experience is not just a matter of words; a single moment's judgment can determine life or death.

This requires constant trial and error, and mastery can only be achieved through life-or-death situations, and also requires a certain amount of luck.

"To be able to destroy High-Explosive Hand Grenade with cold air and dodge close-range attacks with the ability to transform, that's fucking professional!"

Chen Wang sighed.

The weapon in the hand of the middle-aged man he killed first was actually the most threatening to him.

The elderly man with bandages wrapped around his body and the pale-faced middle-aged man were both extremely experienced and proficient in firearms, making them very difficult to deal with.

Only Jin Jun, a second-generation elite, is relatively normal and belongs to the capable Tier 3 Soldier.

"Looks like they're having a big meeting. Could they be trying to get rid of me?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

He searched the scene for anything of value and found many sedatives, Damage Relief Potion, and Pain Suppressant.

In addition, he found a small tube of green potion labeled "Essence of Life".

"What is this thing?" Chen Wang used a detection spell and discovered that it contained a vast amount of life essence.

It certainly lives up to its name.

Suddenly, his body trembled. "Could this be the potion that Winter developed to repair the damage caused by Gene Serum?!"

He had never heard of this thing before, but he could tell at a glance that it was extremely valuable, so he immediately put it away.

"It's certain that some things are not open to the public. I'm a freelancer, and even if I joined an official organization, I wouldn't have enough access to certain intelligence."

A thoughtful look appeared in Chen Wang's eyes.

He gradually began to delve into some of the deeper aspects of Winter's power. The Three Great Powers must have some higher-level research, and even the so-called highest-level fifth-tier units might be fake. They might secretly have sixth- or Tier 7 units, or they might be researching them.

"There are quite a few people in the Church who are involved in drug trafficking."

As Chen Wang came into contact with more and more aspects of this world, he gained a deeper understanding of them.

Without exception, all of these people had Identity Copper Tag on their bodies, whether out of arrogance or some kind of special belief, it's unclear.

Among them, Jin Jun's Identity Copper Tag appeared to be the highest-ranking, and it also had a number, "89?"

This was the first time Chen Wang had seen a number on such a bronze plaque. "What does this mean?" he asked.

He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow; the other three didn't have this number on them.

He put these things away and checked the room for any places he might have forgotten. Besides the drinks, food, and cigars, there were some bedding, small blue pills that looked like very potent drugs, and some special medications for addicts.

In the Winter, when the broken order had just been established and many flaws existed, this kind of thing naturally became extremely popular, especially among Gene Soldier, where it was often used to relieve pain.

As Gene Soldier age, their physical functions decline rapidly, and they become plagued by diseases—this is unavoidable.

Taking drugs often becomes an option to relieve pain.

There was also some cash, totaling around 60,000, and three gold bars.

"Interesting, this doesn't seem like a temporary base."

Chen Wang put the money away. This haul was extremely rich, including the communicator on Jin Jun's body. This device was military-grade and likely contained some secrets.

"Apocalypse's request was to kill Jin Jun, but I didn't expect there to be these three people. It looks like they can fetch a good price."

Chen Wang's eyes lit up.

He automatically ignored the two henchmen outside. Although they were special elite soldiers with extremely high combat power, they were worthless minnows in front of Chen Wang.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Chen Wang quickly handed over the task to Wang Wanrong according to prior arrangements. When this seemingly domestic woman, dressed in a dress, heard the news, she looked astonished. "You really killed Jin Jun?"

Chen Wang nodded and took Jin Jun 'Jin Jun head and his Identity Copper Tag out of the backpack.

"Can this thing really fool people?"

Chen Wang said calmly.

"Where is that undercover agent?" Wang Wanrong asked.

"She's dead. Did she have a grudge against Jin Jun? I even stormed in, and she still wanted to kill Jin Jun with her own hands, but she ended up being killed instead," Chen Wang said calmly.

"I don't know. I think I've heard others mention it. I think it's related to her sister. It's normal for someone to want to kill a scumbag like Jin Jun," Wang Wanrong said.

She paused for a moment, then smiled wryly. "People like us, once we join an organization, become the organization itself."

Chen Wang ignored the complex emotions in her words and said calmly, "Jin Jun is dead. It's time to fulfill your promise."

Wang Wanrong nodded, immediately returned to the car to retrieve a box, and without deliberately concealing it, openly stated, "This contains a third-tier potion, Evil Spirit Envoys, produced by Morning Star Research Institute."

"As for the cash, you can consider converting it into cash directly or exchanging it for weapons and equipment."

Chen Wang opened the box and checked it; it was indeed a standard product from the research institute, and it even had a serial number on it.

"Aren't you afraid that if I leave it in the car like this, I'll take care of you and steal the goods before I finish my mission?"

Chen Wang said.

"To be honest, I'm a little scared, but there's nothing I can do. Who made me do this job?" Wang Wanrong said softly.

Chen Wang laughed, "I'm not used to you taking the honest guy route now."

Wang Wanrong smiled and said, "Isn't it said that women should be a little less intelligent?"

Chen Wang shrugged and said calmly, "Do I need to take your head with me?"

Wang Wanrong shook her head. "No need. Jin Jun has a very high status. If he dies, the news will spread quickly. Besides, there's no need for so many restrictions on the transaction."

This woman seemed determined to win Chen Wang's favor, displaying utmost sincerity.

Chen Wang remained silent, stroking his chin, his gaze sharp, thinking to himself:

"This attitude is unusually kind."
