The next afternoon, Chen Chuan left the dormitory and first t up with two teammates before heading to the tea party venue.
Although he was the only one invited this ti, invitees were allowed to bring a few people. Yuan Qiu Yuan, upon learning of his invitation yesterday, expressed a desire to co along. Considering they were a team and highly likely to be transferred to Chen Bitong's side together in the future, he simply invited Qin Qing Que as well.
When the three arrived, many people were already there, chatting in small groups with wine glasses in hand.
These people were both male and female, all wearing low-ranking officer uniforms. They were probably the ones who had arrived by train. A common characteristic was that they all looked very young, and the aura of military offspring was evident on them.
Chen Chuan could discern from their energy fields that many of them had implants, which was clearly not the normal path for Martial Artists.
This further confird his previous judgnt: these people weren't disciples to be instructed by Chen Bitong, nor did they particularly need it. They were simply a faction showing their support and endorsing Chen Bitong.
The reason for choosing this location for the eting was that Chen Bitong would be leaving Convergence Zone in a few days for a vacation in Central City. This was his last stop before leaving Convergence Zone.
Yuan Qiu Yuan glanced around, noticing the long table filled with delicate pastries and fine drinks, the air thick with a sweet aroma. These were all delicacies not usually seen in the Base cafeteria, undoubtedly transported from Central City by train.
He also recognized the characteristics of these military disciples. He asked Qin Qing Que beside him, "Executive Officer Qin, do you know anyone here?"
Qin Qing Que shook her head. "I don't know anyone."
The crowd noticed Chen Chuan and his companions entering. Although there were many people present, few were as young as Chen Chuan yet already wearing the uniform of an Executive Captain, so he imdiately attracted attention.
The handso officer walked over and shook hands with Chen Chuan. "Captain Chen, hello. I'm Zhan Yi."
Chen Chuan examined his uniform and epaulets. He was also an Executive Captain, but he was over ten years older, appearing to be in his thirties. He replied, "Captain Zhan, hello."
Zhan Yi said, "My teacher would like to et you. Please co with ."
Chen Chuan said, "Then I'll trouble you to lead the way."
He turned to his two teammates to let them know, then followed Zhan Yi to where Chen Bitong was. The latter was talking with the Garrison Commander, Lai Wu, surrounded by several Base officers and staff. However, like yesterday, none of the Base's main leaders were present.
"Teacher, this is Captain Chen," Zhan Yi announced as he approached Chen Bitong. The officers and staff also turned to look.
Chen Bitong sized up Chen Chuan and said, "Young man, we t yesterday."
Those around were surprised. t yesterday? When did that happen? He seed to have entered the room and not co out again yesterday.
Chen Chuan knew he was referring to the contact in the spiritual field yesterday. He said, "I was indeed present when welcoming Instructor Chen yesterday. I didn't expect Instructor Chen to be able to see from so far away."
The others were now enlightened.
Chen Bitong slowly said, "Outstanding young people, even in a crowd, can be noticed at a glance."
At this mont, a Base staff officer smiled and said, "Instructor Chen's eye for talent is indeed accurate. This Captain Chen is the hero who recently brought Iron Demon to justice, solving a major problem for our area's Base. He's a rare talent."
An officer asked curiously, "Captain Chen, how did you defeat Iron Demon? The report wasn't very detailed. Now that you're here, can you tell us about it?"
The surrounding people also showed interest, and so younger officers moved closer.
To be honest, most of them weren't interested in specific Martial Combat Skills and wouldn't understand them.
They directly used implants to gain strength. High-level implants had fewer side effects and were difficult to detect on the surface. Except for those with exceptional talent, most people preferred the convenient path rather than training and cultivating diligently.
However, this didn't prevent them from being interested in stories of fighting powerful enemies, especially when it happened right before their eyes, and one of the parties was a notoriously famous enemy like Iron Demon.
Chen Chuan saw that Chen Bitong's gaze was also on him, so he said, "There's nothing I can't tell you."
He briefly described the process, from the ambush on that night to choosing to take the initiative, and finally defeating Iron Demon in a direct confrontation.
He didn't deliberately embellish or modify the process, but simply stated the facts, making it sound unremarkable. However, he emphasized the role of the intelligence departnt.

"If it weren't for the intelligence departnt's deceptive information, Iron Demon wouldn't have returned so easily to fight us. Therefore, I believe the intelligence departnt deserves at least half the credit here."
A staff officer present said, "That's probably because Captain Chen and your team were the only ones pursuing him at the ti, so Iron Demon thought he had you cornered." He turned to the crowd, smiling. "But he never expected Captain Chen's strength to be so extraordinary, ultimately falling there."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and clapped gently. The surrounding people also politely applauded. To be honest, many people present were disappointed because just listening to Chen Chuan's description, it didn't sound as thrilling as they had imagined; it wasn't exciting at all.
Standing to the side, Zhan Yi noticed sothing else. "Captain Chen, I heard you say that Iron Demon underwent a mutation at the end?"
Chen Chuan said, "Yes, his Mutated Tissue grew outside his body, granting him strong defensive capabilities and strength. However, this also caused an imbalance in his body, making him overall weaker than before."
Chen Bitong then said, "Iron Demon should have been a Demon Ghost."
"Demon Ghost…" Zhan Yi frowned.
The staff officer then said, "Captain Zhan has been abroad for a long ti and has just arrived in Convergence Zone, so he may not be familiar with the situation here. The Old Imperial Family of Convergence Zone has long colluded with Demon Ghosts. In the past, they would grant promising mbers of the Imperial Family the status of Demon Ghost, allowing them to gain strength beyond ordinary people.
Well, it's also active Activation. According to reports, this Activation technique is controllable. Not only can people maintain their original rationality, but they can also gain higher potential.
However, the situation may have changed now. Not only so mbers of the Imperial Family, but also so samurai who have been granted titles, and so who are valued, can also undergo Activation modification. They see this as an honor.
However, I guess this Iron Demon either didn't have a long Activation ti, or there were so technical issues, and he didn't truly integrate well, so that's why he had those problems."
A young officer seed very interested in the Demon Ghost matter and couldn't help but ask, "Staff Officer Fa, does our Da Shun have this kind of technology?"
Staff Officer Fa smiled and said, "Our Great Shun Governnt would never do such a thing, but so companies are different. They would probably conduct research in private."
He didn't seem to want to talk more about this topic and smiled at Chen Chuan. "Fortunately, this Iron Demon was dealt with by Captain Chen, otherwise, if his integration level was higher, he would probably grow into an even more difficult opponent in the future."
This ti there was applause again, slightly warr and more sincere than before.
However, at this mont, another discordant voice rang out, "Captain Chen, I noticed in your report that you stayed outside overnight while pursuing Iron Demon. You used Secret Rituals to resist the nightti Anomalies of Convergence Zone at that ti. That's not easy. Captain Chen seems to know a lot about Secret Rituals."
Everyone turned to look at a tall officer in a disciplinary departnt uniform standing there, wearing round glasses and a parted hairstyle, smiling at Chen Chuan.
Seeing this person raise this question, everyone exchanged glances, revealing playful smiles.
Because Secret Rituals were tightly controlled within Da Shun. So rituals were explicitly prohibited, but Chen Chuan knew them. Where did he learn them from? Had he ever joined certain sects?
Chen Chuan said frankly, "I do know so. When I was in school, I ca into contact with so Anomaly cases and received the Commission and care of the Secret Cult Investigation Departnt, so I learned sothing about this.
In fact, if I hadn't been admitted to Central City Wuyi later, I might be working in the Secret Cult Investigation Departnt today, rather than coming to Convergence Zone to fight people."
"Is that so…" The tall officer stared at him for a few monts, then smiled again and didn't say anything more.
Chen Chuan then looked towards Chen Bitong's direction, took two steps forward, and arrived in front of the latter. "Instructor Chen, can I ask you a question?"
Chen Bitong wore a half-face mask, his face deeply wrinkled. He was a very serious person on the surface, but his tone was gentle at the mont. "Captain Chen, you can ask whatever you want to ask."
Chen Chuan said, "When I fought Iron Demon, I discovered that he had so kind of premonition of impending danger. The Base also knew that this person could often avoid the most dangerous places. I would like to ask, is this ability so kind of Martial Combat ability, or is it brought about by his Demon Ghost identity?"
Everyone who heard his question was also interested and wanted to hear his interpretation.
However, Chen Bitong did not directly answer this question, but said, "Captain Chen, after I return this ti, I will concentrate on recuperating in Central City. I will probably open a training and guidance class with the support of a friend. If Captain Chen has ti, you can co to , and I will give you an answer then."
Chen Chuan looked at him. Putting aside his position and the problems behind him, this person definitely had genuine skills. If he could learn sothing, it would be beneficial to him. So he said, "Instructor Chen, I will co."
