Chapter 602: Chapter 599: Entering Lonely Wolf

As the three Buick cars stopped, six or seven men in suits got out and carefully approached the Volkswagen to check the situation inside.

In the driver’s seat, Ling Chen’s head rested on the steering wheel, his forehead bruised from a severe impact, and his cheeks still bore scratch marks from which blood profusely flowed, dripping down his neck.

"He’s passed out."

One of the men in suits sighed in relief and gestured to his companion to pry open the deformed car door, then they dragged Ling Chen out of the driver’s seat and transferred him to a Buick car.

...

It was unknown how long had passed when the groggy Ling Chen finally came to. He opened his eyes and struggled to sit up, looking around to observe his surroundings.

This was a small dark room, less than ten square meters, with an iron door at the entrance that featured a service window in the middle, but it was now closed. The room was pitch-black and dimly lit, but fortunately, Ling Chen’s vision was good enough to see clearly.

He moved his arms and legs, noticing that his wrists and ankles were shackled with heavy chains. One end of each chain was connected to a wall fixture, and they were only two meters long, just enough to reach the iron door.

It seemed he had been detained at the Lonewolf Base.

In the darkness, Ling Chen’s mouth curled into a faint smile. Regardless, his plan had been quite successful.

Pang Jiulin refused to disclose the location of the Lonewolf Base, so Ling Chen had thought it over—if he couldn’t figure out the exact location of the base, he might as well let the Lonewolf people bring him in. After all, he was a wanted criminal, and Tang Guoxiong was eager to capture him.

Previously in East Sea City, it would not have been so easy for the Lonewolf people to catch him if he hadn’t made a phone call with specific arrangements.

Pulling on the chain he held, Ling Chen turned his left hand over, then pinched the skin with his fingertips. With a motion of his arm, a thin wire was extracted from under the skin. This trick he learned from Liu Dongsheng: hiding a wire underneath the skin where nobody would notice.

When deciding to execute his plan, he had already made thorough preparations.

With the wire in hand, Ling Chen located the keyhole of the chain lock, inserting the wire and gently maneuvering it. Shortly after, the lock clicked softly, and the lock opened. After unlocking the handcuffs, he used the same method to unlock the shackles on his feet as well.

Now free, Ling Chen stood up from the bed, walked over to the iron door, and pressed his ear against it to listen carefully to the sounds outside.

Despite the barrier of the iron door, Ling Chen could still hear breathing, indicating someone was guarding the door.

Just one person... Ling Chen felt relieved and nodded silently.

If there were multiple guards, it might be troublesome, but one guard... that made things much easier.

Immediately, Ling Chen took a couple of steps back, then forcefully kicked the iron door. Instantly, the door made a loud ’clang’ and trembled slightly. Ling Chen did not pause, continuously kicking the door, creating sufficient noise.

Finally, after a minute or two, the guard outside became impatient, pulled open the door’s service window, and looked down into the dark room shouting, "Behave yourself."

However, as the guard’s head appeared outside the window, Ling Chen swiftly extended his arms through the window, tightly gripped the man’s neck, and forcefully pulled back, pinning him against the iron door.

For a moment, only hoarse screams could be heard from the guard as he frantically struggled, trying to break free from Ling Chen’s grip. Unfortunately, facing a prominent fighter on the Dragon List, he was no match.

"Hand over the keys," Ling Chen leaned in and said coldly.

The moment the words fell, seeing that the guard remained indifferent, Ling Chen increased the force in his hands a bit more.

"Hand over the keys in exchange for your life, isn’t that worth it?" Ling Chen coaxed.

No one doesn’t cherish their own life, even the members of Lonewolf cherish life. Finally, unable to endure the pain, the guard reached towards his waist, unclipped the keys, and handed them to Ling Chen.

After receiving the keys, Ling Chen pulled the man’s hands toward him, causing the back of the man’s head to smash against the iron door, knocking him out cold.

As he escaped from the dark room, Ling Chen glanced at the corridors on both sides, and stepped toward the left. Lonewolf Base was different from the previous Ghost Base; it was his first time here, and he had no understanding of the environment, so he could only try his luck. noveldrama

However, Ling Chen hadn’t gone far when he heard a voice coming from one of the dark rooms.

Someone?

Ling Chen approached, knocked on the iron door, and asked, "Who’s in there?"

"Is that you, Tang Yuan?"

Hearing the voice from the dark room, Ling Chen’s spirits lifted, and he quickly took out the keys to unlock the iron door.

Indeed, the person imprisoned inside was Tang Yuan.

"Old Tang!" Ling Chen exclaimed with a smile: "I finally found you."

"Forget about catching up, let’s get this thing off me first," Tang Yuan pointed towards the chains on his wrists and feet with his mouth.

A few days had passed, and Tang Yuan’s face looked somewhat haggard, but his eyes were bright and gleaming with energy. Judging by his bruised face, it seemed he had endured brutal torture.

"Old Tang, are you okay?" Ling Chen asked with concern. If it weren’t for him, Tang Yuan wouldn’t have had to suffer this way.

Feeling Ling Chen’s guilty gaze, Tang Yuan nonchalantly patted his shoulder, smiling, "Do I look like I’m in trouble? Come on, stop looking at me that way; although we are close, I’m not into that sort of thing."

"Get out of here."

After joking for a moment, Ling Chen put on a serious face and asked, "Old Tang, where are Mr. Han and the General? Where are they?"

"Mr. Han was imprisoned next to me but was taken away yesterday and hasn’t returned since; as for the General... I don’t know his whereabouts, he wasn’t imprisoned with us. The General’s identity is different from ours; even if he did something wrong, Tang Guoxiong wouldn’t dare treat him as a common prisoner."

"You’re more familiar with this place, what should we do next?"

Tang Yuan thought for a moment and then said, "Let’s go find Mr. Han first. Tang Guoxiong is a vicious bastard, and I’m afraid he might brutally torture Mr. Han. I can withstand it, but Mr. Han can’t endure that kind of torture."

Ling Chen nodded: "You lead the way, I’ll follow."

Leaving the cell, Ling Chen closely followed behind Tang Yuan, heading directly toward the secure passageway. Along the way, the observant Ling Chen noticed that there were few surveillance cameras in the base, with only a few important junctions equipped with cameras, which undoubtedly made their operation more convenient.

After hearing Tang Yuan’s explanation, Ling Chen learned that since the base was newly constructed, security measures had not yet fully covered the area. It was precisely because of this that they had so many loopholes to exploit.
