Guerrilla Warfare

The bar was extremely noisy, with people talking and laughing loudly, so Chen Wang didn't need to specifically inquire about information.

He only drank for a short while inside, yet he already knew a great deal about many current events.

Guo Xiaobai has remained unscathed, regained control, and reclaimed the bar and his former power.

Whether those people in the shadows are plotting something remains to be seen.

Chen Wang also learned a name from these people: Ma Qun.

This Ma Qun belongs to a powerful merchant in the Shelter, with a deep background. He not only has business dealings in Qiongqi Mining, but is also said to have business dealings with the Three Great Powers.

Those who can do business in the Winter all have connections with high-ranking officials, since resources are scarce here.

The sale of food and water is mostly handled by the government, making it difficult for ordinary people to get involved.

This Ma Qun herd was also an arms dealer involved in Black Market transactions, and he and Guo Xiaobai had a long-standing feud.

It is said that Ma Qun was behind this Shadow, but it is unknown whether these rumors are accurate.

Chen Wang also learned from the bar that

There is a high-ranking official in the Shelter who supports Ma Qun behind the scenes, but Guo Xiaobai also has a high-ranking official supporting him, who is said to be making money for them.

As for why the higher-ups behind Guo Xiaobai did not intervene in this turmoil, or how much effort they actually put in, everyone can only speculate and has no idea.

"Sometimes, a power struggle between those in power can lead to those below fighting to the death; this is a common occurrence," Chen Wang thought to himself.

Besides Guo Xiaobai's movements, what interested him most was the situation at the Shelter C.

The Shelter had previously fallen into the hands of the Church, has now been completely recaptured.

However, no one knows the specifics of the personnel changes, including the situation of Old Wang and others.

I heard that many high-ranking officials died, and even more high-ranking officials who came to support the military died in the conflict.

The Church is a professional terrorist organization, but for some reason, they mobilized a large number of military units for this attack, and the fighting lasted a long time without them leaving.

Furthermore, there are rumors that the Church found something inside; some say it was medicine, some say it was research data, and others say it was a book...

Opinions vary.

Chen Wang left the bar, took a deep breath,

The situation at the Shelter was somewhat unexpected for him.

I thought that terrorist attacks by Church were just standard practice, but it seems they need to find something else.

He immediately thought of the documents he had brought out from that abandoned hospital, as well as the documents from the factory he had previously worked at.

Could it be related to those things?

Chen Wang thought to himself.

If it's related to those things, it could involve the issue of conscious Zombies.

There has never been any talk of conscious Zombies.

All those who participated in the operation had signed confidentiality agreements, including Chen Wang. Wang Zheng had even come to see him specifically.

Chen Wang went to Guo Xiaobai's bar and found Guo Xiaobai.

In the spacious office, a tall woman wearing a black pencil skirt, a white shirt, and high heels poured tea for Chen Wang.

It was the woman Chen Wang had saved earlier, Guo Xiaobai's secretary.

She bent over, revealing her long, shapely legs and a curvaceous figure.

"Brother Chen, I haven't properly thanked you for saving me last time," the female secretary said.

"It's nothing," Chen Wang said dismissively.

"Brother Xiaobai is handling something right now, he'll be here shortly. Please wait here for a moment," the female secretary said softly.

Chen Wang nodded.

This person is probably Guo Xiaobai's lover, and they have a good relationship.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hunted down along with Guo Xiaobai; he must know many secrets.

These thoughts flashed through Chen Wang's mind, and he immediately composed himself.

Not long after, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked in. Upon seeing Chen Wang, he smiled and said, "Brother Chen, it's been a long time! I've really missed you!"

Guo Xiaobai at this moment was completely different from the disheveled appearance he had last seen.

His beard was impeccably trimmed, his clothes were impeccable, and he wore an expensive wristwatch.

He looked extremely sharp, like a cheetah.

"How's the medicine coming along?" Chen Wang asked.

"The checks have been particularly strict lately. I only managed to get one dose of a second-tier Eagle Eye potion and one Essence of Life," Guo Xiaobai said.

Chen Wang had already received the second-order Eagle Eye injection.

This problem arises when too many medications are injected; Chen Wang has already been injected with many of the commonly circulated ones.

Further injections will not enhance Genetic Ability; they can only improve physical fitness to some extent.

"How much do you know about the Essence of Life?" Chen Wang asked.

"This is a good thing. It can increase physical functions, help recover from injuries, and repair damage caused by Gene Serum."

Everything he said was extraordinary in the Winter.

After all, there were no Alchemist here, and the fact that the Gene Serum could repair the damage was enough to make people's hearts flutter, but it didn't hold much appeal for Chen Wang.

"I have something I'd like to ask. What's the situation at the Shelter C?" Chen Wang suddenly asked.

Guo Xiaobai clearly knew a lot about this, unlike the rumors circulating in the bar.

He vividly recounted the story to Chen Wang.

He was different now than he had been before, both as a drunkard and as down-and-out.

He was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, full of energy.

Although his previous drunken state seemed a bit strange, Chen Wang felt that it was his true self.

The information Chen Wang had previously received was not entirely inaccurate; aside from some speculations, the major aspects were actually true.

However, Chen Wang learned some more details from Guo Xiaobai.

Guo Xiaobai skillfully lit a cigarette for Chen Wang, then lit one for himself, and said with a smile, "That Old Wang is a ruthless character. When the Shelter fell, he actually led his men to fight Guerrilla Warfare."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. "Guerrilla Warfare?"

Guo Xiaobai laughed and said, "That's right. They fought Guerrilla Warfare for a while, beheaded a few Church members, and then disappeared."

"When he returned, he personally led the team to wipe out the Church Remnants."

Guo Xiaobai sighed, "Usually, when you encounter something like this, you have to take responsibility. It's already good enough if they don't lock him up or dismiss him. This Old Wang managed to hold on and break through the siege, and was even entrusted with an important task, leading the army back. He really has some skills!"

Chen Wang was also somewhat surprised upon hearing this, and thinking of the old man who had experienced so much hardship, he couldn't help but sigh.

"However, everything there is in ruins and needs to be rebuilt. In my opinion, Brother Chen should stay here for the time being. There won't be any resources there in the short term, and things are very tense," Guo Xiaobai said.

Chen Wang nodded slightly, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Guo Xiaobai added, "This Old Wang has been targeted by the Church this time, and is probably already on the kill list. He is still in charge of the Shelter and has not been transferred."
