Chapter 561: Chapter 557: Port Rescue (1)
"Stay here, I’m going out for a bit," said Ling Chen as he got up, ready to leave.
"What are you going to do?" Su Mei quickly caught up to Ling Chen, obstructing his path and asked.
"Elder Zhou and the others must be trapped on the ship, I’m going to scout out the situation and see if I can rescue them."
"No! You’re so severely injured and can barely take care of yourself, how can you go and rescue them? Don’t end up risking your own life too."
"It’s okay, no need to worry about me. People from the God Organization know that the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has sent reinforcements, most of their manpower must be intercepting Song Ge and the others, the manpower at the port should be less, this is a good opportunity, we cannot miss it."
"But..." Su Mei still hesitated. Her hesitation mainly stemmed from her concern for Ling Chen’s safety. He was covered in wounds, and she did not want his condition to worsen. As the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master, she had some knowledge in medicine and knew very well that as a martial artist, if one cannot control their injuries, the condition might worsen and possibly lead to long-term complications.
"Right!"
At that moment, Ling Chen seemed to remember something, hurriedly reaching into his pocket, rummaging left and right, and finally pulled out something wrapped in plastic paper.
"I have this."
"What is that?" Su Mei asked curiously.
Ling Chen smiled as he peeled off the plastic wrapper, revealing a small white orb, immediately dispersing a faint fragrance throughout the room.
"Heavenly Mechanism Pill!"
As the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Master, Su Mei would naturally recognize it.
Ling Chen nodded, the pill in his hand was a quality Heavenly Mechanism Pill, obtained from the Heavenly Mechanism Great Ceremony. There are three types of Heavenly Mechanism Pills: ordinary, quality, and superior. However, only those who have reached the level of Dragon List could consume the quality Heavenly Mechanism Pills. Ling Chen, who was previously ranked in the Tiger List, had used an ordinary Heavenly Mechanism Pill before and found it effective, but he had never used the quality ones.
After securing the first place in the recent rookie competition, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion awarded him four quality Heavenly Mechanism Pills. He kept three at home and carried one all the time, just in case.
He had just recalled that he still had one with him.
"Heavenly Mechanism Pill isn’t a healing medicinal pill, at most it can only alleviate your pain, not have much effect on the injuries," said Su Mei.
"Alleviating the pain is enough." With that, not waiting for Su Mei to say anything more, Ling Chen swallowed the quality Heavenly Mechanism Pill.
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, its effect began to work in his body. The quality Heavenly Mechanism Pill indeed had a much stronger effect than the ordinary ones. Soon, the pain in his chest was significantly alleviated.
"Alright, I’m fine now, I’ll head out now," Ling Chen patted his chest, showed Su Mei an OK sign, and then turned towards the door. Reaching the doorway, Ling Chen slapped his forehead, quickly turned around, took out his phone, and placed it in Su Mei’s hand.
"Keep the phone so we can easily stay in contact."
"Then take care of yourself."
"I know."
After leaving the hotel, Ling Chen drove the stolen car straight to the Jinhai City port.
In less than half an hour, Ling Chen arrived outside the port. He parked the car at the roadside, stood outside the gate, and glanced around. Although it was already 4 a.m., many workers were still loading and unloading goods.
It is normal for a major port to operate 24 hours with staff working shifts. Ling Chen observed for a while, but did not notice any suspicious individuals or questionable ships.
Right then, Ling Chen slipped past the workers and quietly went into the port management center. While nobody was paying attention, he picked up a work uniform and put it on, ensuring that his identity would not be discovered.
In the harbor, a large area is piled with containers. Ling Chen wore a work cap, pulled the brim down, and discreetly moved among the workers, searching for the whereabouts of Zhou Jun and his companions.
At this moment, a large group of workers were operating machinery, loading cargo onto a cargo ship, and more than ten large containers were successively transported to the ship.
After spending more than ten minutes, Ling Chen walked a big round in the harbor. He searched every suspicious place, but still came up empty-handed.
Strange!
Ling Chen frowned secretly, wondering if he had come to the wrong place.
Just as he was thinking, his eyes were suddenly drawn to several vehicles parked side by side not far away.
Range Rover!
It was indeed here!
Ling Chen thought to himself. If he had any doubts before, he was sure now that Zhou Qi and his people must be detained somewhere in the harbor.
However, apart from a cargo ship, there were more than ten fishing boats and several yachts around the port. He had checked the fishing boats and yachts and found no signs of anyone, all dark and deserted.
Cargo ship!
Ling Chen looked up at the cargo ship not far away and nodded secretly. Except for that ship, he had checked everywhere else. However, searching such a large ship might be problematic.
After thinking for a while, Ling Chen blended in with the port workers, picked up a woven bag, and followed the team quickly onto the cargo ship.
Once on the cargo ship, Ling Chen carefully observed the people around him. Soon, he identified several suspicious targets. Although these people were dressed in work clothes, they were not working. Instead, they stood around, monitoring the actions of others.
Moreover, under their clothes around their waists, Ling Chen saw bulges, likely lethal weapons.
Having identified the targets, Ling Chen pressed his cap down, lowered his head, and walked towards a man. Approaching him, Ling Chen glanced around, noticed that no one was paying attention to them, and without hesitation, he took action, knocked the man down to the ground, covered his mouth, and dragged him behind a box.
"If you don’t want to die, you better cooperate with me." Ling Chen coldly threatened.
"Tell me, where are all the people you’ve captured?"
The man quickly raised his hand and pointed to a stack of containers not far away.
"Are you sure?"
The man hastily nodded, indicating he was not lying.
"You better not be lying to me; otherwise, I’ll come back for you."
With that, Ling Chen raised his left hand, turned it into a knife-hand, and severely chopped at the man’s neck, knocking him unconscious. To avoid detection, Ling Chen pulled a cloth from nearby and covered the man’s body, hiding his tracks.
He then continued to disguise as a worker on the cargo ship, walked through the busy crowd, and headed straight towards the containers.
Upon reaching the area, Ling Chen walked past the containers, carefully listening to any noise inside.
"Hey, what are you doing over there?"
Suddenly, a man in charge of patrol noticed Ling Chen’s actions and hurriedly called out reprehensively.
