Apocalypse: Starting with an infinitely evolving luxury RV

Chapter 1154 Cleaning up the portal

However, hearing Lu Benwei mention Russia piqued Su Chen's curiosity.

According to his understanding, many countries in the world no longer exist.

For example, many island nations to the south of China have been submerged by the vast ocean due to sudden climate change and rising sea levels.

Apart from that, no news has come from other countries.

This includes the Russian country, which borders China.

Prior to this, Su Chen had never heard of Russia.

"The Russian Bear Country? Does that country still exist?"

"Of course it exists."

Lu Benwei explained,

"They sent people to contact us several years ago."

"At the time, they meant that the environment for the bears was too harsh, and they wanted to migrate to our territory to live."

"But Boss Su also knows that we absolutely cannot agree to such an unreasonable request."

"After being rejected, they didn't do anything excessive."

"It wasn't until the appearance of raw stones and spirit stones that the Russian Bear Kingdom began to stir again."

"They repeatedly organized forces to invade Kunshan, Ningxi and other places."

"Fortunately, the local survivors' organization fought back, and with the support of Suzaku, their plot was thwarted."

Even before the apocalypse, the propaganda consistently promoted the friendship between China and Russia.

But we must understand that between nations, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests!

The reason why China and Russia are on friendly terms is entirely due to the existence of the United States.

If given the chance, Russia would definitely swallow China without hesitation.

"So you're saying that Russia is planning another invasion?"

Su Chen asked.

"Yes, according to the intelligence from the Kunshan Society, the Russians have organized a group of people, seemingly preparing to attack."

The Vermilion Bird is still the official organization of China in name only.

However, Wei An, as the head of the headquarters, reported his work to Su Chen.

It must be said that this situation is rather strange.

Su Chen nodded thoughtfully.

"General Manager, Minister Lu, don't you think the invasion by the Russian Bear Country is a bit too coincidental?"

Everyone was slightly taken aback, not understanding Su Chen's meaning.

"You just dismissed Cheng Kun from his post, and news of the invasion by the Russian Bear Kingdom came from the Kunshan Society."

"Cheng Kun used this as an excuse to go directly to the Kunshan Association..."

A meaningful expression appeared on Su Chen's face.

Everyone present was shrewd and immediately understood what he meant.

"You mean, Cheng Kun plans to defect to the Russian bear?"

Lu Benwei's expression turned serious.

"Of course, this is just my guess."

Su Chen shrugged.

"No, I think Boss Su's guess is very likely!"

Zhan Wei's expression was rather unpleasant.

"When Cheng Kun left, he took a large number of elite combat troops with him!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen looked at Lu Benwei in surprise.

Lu Benwei looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Minister Lu... how should I put it?"

Su Chen sighed helplessly.

Since they intended to suppress Cheng Kun, they not only failed to control him, but also allowed him to leave with his men.

"This is my dereliction of duty, and I won't do it again."

Lu Benwei said with self-reproach,

"Boss Su, what do you think we should do next?"

"This is an internal matter for your Suzaku clan, so it's best if I don't interfere."

Su Chen waved his hand.

"Oh, Boss Su, you're too kind."

Wei An said with a smile,

"Since Master Bai values ​​you so much, we should still hear your opinion on the Vermilion Bird matter."

Just as Su Chen was about to decline, a system notification sounded in his ear.

"Task: Clean house."

"Kill Cheng Kun, the traitor who killed Zhuque, and Liu Hailong, the leader of the Kunshan Society."

"Mission reward: unknown!"

???

Su Chen was immediately filled with a look of utter confusion.

After the system automatically upgraded, it actually learned to proactively issue tasks?

Seeing Su Chen remain silent, Wei An assumed he was unwilling and quickly said...

"Since Boss Su is not willing, then forget it."

"No, I'd be happy to."

Su Chen snapped out of his daze and immediately agreed.

Wei An was slightly taken aback, but then breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, as long as Su Chen agrees, that would be the best outcome.

"Boss Su, what do you think we should do next?"

Lu Benwei asked Su Chen for his opinion.

"Based on my guess, Cheng Kun most likely wants to defect and go to Russia."

"However, this should be a hasty decision on his part, as he has not yet reached an agreement with Russia."

"We can take him down quietly before he completely defectes!"

Su Chen said slowly.

"Boss Su is indeed brilliant!"

Wei An immediately began to flatter Su Chen, praising him.

"I have no objection."

"I agree with Boss Su's proposal!"

Lu Benwei, Zhan Wei, and the others nodded in agreement.

Although there is no substantial evidence yet to prove that Cheng Kun defected.

But for most people, it's no longer that important.

Cheng Kun's fate was sealed long ago, after he offended Su Chen and Su Chen became a guest of honor at the Dao Yi Sect!

"Alright, I'll personally go north and take charge of this matter."

Su Chen's words surprised everyone again.

"Boss Su, isn't that really unnecessary? We can just send someone to deal with Cheng Kun, who is nothing more than a mere mortal."

Zhan Wei quickly advised.

"Yes, why bother you with all this trouble?"

Wei An and Lu Benwei were also quite puzzled.

Although Su Chen and Cheng Kun had a falling out before, it wasn't a big deal, and Su Chen didn't need to get involved personally.

"Since I have nothing better to do, I'd like to go out and travel around."

Su Chen didn't explain much.

This was a task assigned by the system, and he was still a little uneasy about entrusting it to Zhuque.

"Well... alright, Boss Su, just let us know what kind of help you need, and we'll be happy to assist you!"

Seeing Su Chen's resolute attitude, Wei An could not stop him and could only nod in agreement.

After some discussion, the group decided to split into two groups.

Led by Zhanwei, the elite troops of the Vermilion Bird secretly headed towards Kunshan Province.

The other group, led by Su Chen, went alone to investigate the Kunshan Association.

It is not too late.

To prevent Cheng Kun from actually defecting, Su Chen decided to set off the next day.

After the meeting, he returned to Normadison and told the women about his trip to Kunshan.

The women were all somewhat downcast after hearing this.

It should be noted that recently, Su Chen has been either busy cultivating or handling affairs outside.

They hadn't spent time with Su Chen for a long time.

"Boss, can't you just not go?"

Zhou Qing held Su Chen's hand, saying reluctantly,

"Wouldn't it be better to leave that matter to someone else to handle?"

“I don’t trust the others. We must deal with Cheng Kun as soon as possible, otherwise the war will spread to the interior.”

Su Chen explained.

He personally went north, not only because of the system's mission.
