Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Legend

This is an unknown planet and land, but here, there is civilization and history highly similar to Earth's, and here, miracles abound!

On the southwest border, amidst the continuous mountains, there is a desolate place where a huge building stands. It is dark, and enormous, and gives off a terrifying and eerie feeling, as if a giant beast is lurking here, instilling a sense of dread in anyone who sees it. Even the air seems to be filled with an unsettling and intense hostility, enough to make one's scalp tingle with fear at just a glance.

This place is the most terrifying in the entire Chenyun domain, without exception! It is affectionately called the "Extreme Mental Hospital" by people because everyone imprisoned here is considered extremely wicked and all are extreme maniacs with mental disorders!

Such a place is often equated with death and demons. Once imprisoned here, it means losing one's freedom for a lifetime or becoming a plaything in the hands of death!

Because anyone sent here for imprisonment can never leave again, either for the rest of their life or to silently disappear from the world!

It's such a place, situated in the desolate southwest region and filled with evil energy, that today, a few people who shouldn't be here have arrived.

A green off-road vehicle with a special license plate abruptly stopped outside the main entrance of the huge building, resembling the mouth of a beast ready to devour people. Two individuals got out, a man and a woman.

This pair, not to mention in this remote place, even if thrown into a bustling metropolis, would attract attention.

The man was dressed in a sharp suit, tall and extraordinary, exuding a strong and resolute aura, indicating his extraordinary status.

As for the woman, she was incomparably beautiful and captivating. Wrapped in a professional suit, her figure was graceful and exquisite, belonging to the kind that could cause turmoil among the inmates of this "mental hospital".

As soon as they got out of the car, they followed a middle-aged man who had been waiting at the main entrance for a long time into this terrifying stronghold.

This middle-aged man leading the way was the director of this "mental hospital"!

The man and woman following behind the director appeared anxious and uneasy, especially the beautiful woman, whose attractive eyebrows were tightly furrowed, indicating a heavy burden on her mind.

"Director, where is the person?" The middle-aged man in a suit asked solemnly. The three of them quickly arrived at the director's office.

"I have already sent someone to fetch him. He will be here soon," the director said casually.

"Fetch? him? Director, are you sure you're fetching him and not interrogating him?" The beautiful woman raised an eyebrow with a hint of sarcasm.

Hearing this slightly mocking remark, the director just smiled and sat alone by the window, smoking a cigarette, unwilling to explain further. The person they were going to see today was someone the director understood better than anyone else. His past glory and experiences were enough to be called a legend.

He never saw that person as a wicked criminal deprived of lifelong freedom!

"Wanyue, after meeting that person, be sure to curb your disdain," the middle-aged man in the suit reminded with a frown.

"Uncle Liu, can that person save my father?" Su Wanyue asked with some skepticism. Many batches of strong individuals had failed, and she couldn't believe that one person could reverse the situation, especially when that person had been deprived of freedom and imprisoned in such a sinister place.

If it weren't for several clues indicating that the person imprisoned here was extraordinary, she would have turned around and left.

"In the entire southwest region, if even Chen Liuhe can't do it, then we must prepare for the worst," the middle-aged man said.

At his words, Su Wanyue trembled slightly and said, "Uncle Liu, this concerns the life and death of my father. It's not a joke."

After thinking for a moment, the man looked at Su Wanyue and said solemnly, "Wanyue, with the status of your family's Green Source Group, I believe you should also know about some sealed information. A year ago, there was a sensational incident. Have you heard of it?"

"I know, there was a massacre overseas, with thirty-eight people dead or injured overnight," Su Wanyue said, her expression shaken, staring in disbelief.

The man nodded. "You guessed right. It was done by Chen Liuhe. If it weren't for the huge impact of this incident, this legendary figure, Chen Liuhe, wouldn't have ended up being sent to this hellish place."

"The legendary aura surrounding him is undeniable at any time. To this day, there are many legends about him within the Green Camp. His abilities are unquestionable. If he can't handle this matter, then in the current situation, no one can."

The man said firmly.

"But why is he detained here? I always thought he would be in—" Su Wanyue was surprised. She had heard rumors about the incident a year ago, which was a sensational event.

Before Su Wanyue could ponder the immense information in that statement, The office door suddenly swung open, revealing a tall and slender young man.

The young man sported a short buzz cut, appearing to be in his mid-twenties. He wasn't exceptionally handsome, but his sharp features gave off a rugged vibe.

"Are you Chen Liuhe?" Su Wanyue asked, feeling somewhat disappointed upon seeing him in person. She didn't sense the heroic aura one would expect from a soldier in Chen Liuhe. Instead, he seemed to exude a lazy and indifferent demeanor, far from the heroic figure she had imagined.

"Heh, rare guests indeed. Both of you seem extraordinary, not your average folks, huh?" Chen Liuhe casually glanced around before nonchalantly taking a seat in the director's chair and lighting a cigarette.

"Cut to the chase, Chen Liuhe. We're facing a very urgent and tricky situation this time, and we need your help," the middle-aged man stood up, getting straight to the point.

Exhaling a smoke ring, Chen Liuhe's gaze briefly swept over Su Wanyue's graceful figure before he casually responded, "If I'm not mistaken, you must be from the Green Camp, and your position must be quite high! Are you asking for my help? Did I hear that right? Aren't I just a 'patient' here with a long list of crimes? If it's about that, you can go back. I'm not interested nor do I have the time."

Undeterred, the man fixed his gaze on Chen Liuhe. "This matter is of utmost importance. Only you can accomplish this nearly impossible task."

Pausing, the man leaned forward with both hands on the table, emphasizing each word. "Foreign forces are attacking. After committing heinous acts, they plan to leave. You were once a soldier, the finest warrior. Has this short year of despair erased the valor in you?"

"Foreign invasion?" Chen Liuhe raised an eyebrow. "That's easy. Just mobilize strong firepower and bombard them to oblivion, right?"

"If it were that simple, we wouldn't be here seeking your help," the man sighed, then nodded towards Su Wanyue. "This is Su Wanye, the only daughter of Su Weiye, Chairman of the Green Source Group. The foreign forces are here in our country to kidnap Su Weiye, who holds crucial business secrets and technology. We cannot allow Su Weiye to be taken and let these foreign forces succeed."

"Now, Su Weiye is in the hands of a mercenary group, currently at the southwest border, ready to leave the country at any moment. The loss won't be just the valuable secrets but also our national pride!" The man's words were resolute.

Upon hearing this, Chen Liuhe nodded in realization. "So, besides killing, we also have to rescue. This adds quite a level of difficulty. No wonder you came to me."

"The enemy is formidable, aren't they?" Chen Liuhe inquired.

The man nodded solemnly, pulling out several photos from his briefcase. Chen Liuhe grinned as he glanced at them. After sizing up Su Wanyue once again, he remarked, "Looks like your family has made quite the enemy. They even hired the 13th-ranked Blood Wolf Mercenary Group. It takes at least ten million dollars to get these guys to set foot on our land. Quite a hefty price."

Su Wanyue furrowed her brows, feeling disgusted by Chen Liuhe's gloating tone. She coldly demanded, "Can you do it or not? If not, don't waste our precious time!"

Chen Liuhe didn't bother with her, instead saying, "Let's talk about the terms."

"To complete this mission, we'll grant you your freedom," the man said solemnly.

Chen Liuhe was taken aback for a moment, then turned to the director beside him and smiled. "Old Tang, give me back the things I handed over when I came in. It's about time for me to be free, buddy."

"Sure thing." The middle-aged man, serving as the director, grinned and immediately ordered someone to fetch the items, without saying much throughout.

Chen Liuhe had very few belongings, just a set of ordinary clothes and a peculiar blade shaped like a crescent moon.

"Aren't you going to ask anything? Aren't you afraid I might deceive you?" the man from the Green Camp, with a strong military aura, asked curiously.

Chen Liuhe smiled faintly. "You wouldn't dare. You might deceive others, but you wouldn't dare deceive Chen Liuhe!" This simple statement revealed his arrogance and audacity!

"Need any support or weapons? We can provide whatever you need without conditions," the man offered.

Chen Liuhe waved his hand, weighing the crescent moon blade in his hand and smiling. "No need. Those Blood Wolf brats are nothing. Once they find out it's me, if they don't wet their pants, that's their skill."

With that said, Chen Liuhe stood up and swaggered out of the office, followed hastily by Su Wanyue and the others.

Outside the eerie and terrifying psychiatric hospital, watching Chen Liuhe drive away carelessly until he disappeared from view, Su Wanyue couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Can he do it?"

"Wanyue, legends aren't just casually mentioned. Believe in him," the middle-aged man said, also feeling uncertain.

"Uncle Liu, I'm curious, why did he go there to massacre that place in the first place? Causing such a catastrophic disaster." Su Wanyue was intrigued.

The man with a special identity seemed to know something and sighed. "For a woman. A woman who, after his accident, abandoned him without a second thought, choosing to prioritize her safety and well-being."

Ah, the age-old tale of how beauty often brings calamity—hateful, angering, and yet, pitiful!
