Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 889: Camaraderie and Trust Between Comrades
In the dead of night.
260 kilometers west of Silver City.
The Black Knights had set up a radar outpost here. No matter which army from Royal Capital, Blackwater City, or Phoenix City wanted to pass, they couldn't avoid this radar.
However, at this moment, 81 airships suddenly appeared on the radar...
The platoon leader looked at the radar and contacted the fleet ahead using the communication equipment: "Please report your unit number and cease advancing."
But there was no answer, and they continued to advance.
The platoon leader said to the soldier beside him: "Get me Silver City. There's an unidentified fleet attacking! Request ground-to-air support, request air support."
The soldier contacted them for a long time, but was stunned to find that the dedicated line that could always be connected was unanswered.
Strange, what happened on Silver City's side that they didn't even bother to answer the phone?
Before the platoon leader could figure it out, two flying objects suddenly approached rapidly. He was startled by the speed: "They're fighter jets!
Only fighter jets could have this speed!
Two fighter jets quickly approached, and when they flew over the outpost, they immediately launched two missiles, reducing the outpost to rubble.
The civil war in Roosevelt Kingdom has begun.
At the same time, 120 kilometers behind the royal fleet, a Blackwater City fleet and a Phoenix City fleet followed, with a total of 300 airships. Even the vanguard of the imperial expedition was nothing more than this.
Now, the Fate Weavers have foreseen the future. They are going to divide up everything in Silver City.
The time has come!
The three fleets sailed quickly, their destination being the same: Silver City.
However, the orders received by each unit were different.
In a certain airship of the Blackwater fleet, seven Fate Weavers sat quietly. They didn't command the fleet, but sat there with their eyes closed, as if preparing for the upcoming battle.
"We're within range, let's begin," said a Fate Weaver.
At this time, a Fate Weaver suddenly opened his eyes: "It seems we don't need to do anything. Both targets will die, and we will get what we want. I've seen the future."
Another Fate Weaver said: "No, there's still the Joker to kill."
The last Fate Weaver suddenly opened his eyes: "Order the Blackwater fleet to halt. We cannot advance any further. Let the Second Prince and the Phoenix fleet continue... We don't have enough manpower, and we cannot see the complete cause and effect."
The three Fate Weavers seemed to be jointly analyzing a piece of destiny, trying to combine the fragments to form a complete picture. However, this battle seemed too complex, and the fragments seen by the three people could not be pieced together at all.
...
3 AM.
In the Silver Air Fortress, except for the security department continuing to repair the nuclear reactor, the rest of the soldiers were all gathering on the top deck, boarding airships and fighter jets, preparing to escape.
All airships and planes were put into a state of readiness, but Silver Duke suddenly ordered them to stand by.
In the Air Fortress, soldiers continued to go up to the deck.
Inside, six war robots were running quickly, but when they turned a corner, six became five.
At this time, the last war robot turned back and walked deep into the fortress. It was unknown whether someone was controlling it or if it had developed its own consciousness. This robot went all the way to the third floor of the fortress, to a certain secret room.
In the secret room, a middle-aged woman was sitting by a stream in a holographic projection, feeding fish, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening outside, and unconcerned about the fate of the Silver.
The war robot came to a wall and quickly inputted a 168-bit password. Its fingers were nimble and steady, without a single mistake.
This 168-bit password was a dynamic code, and a single mistake, or ten minutes later, would invalidate it.
The next moment, the wall opened, revealing rows of servers behind it. This was the Sky Eye system processor that supported the stability of Roosevelt Kingdom's security,
and the mainframe of the AI.
The war robot walked inside and finally found a black box. The woman in the holographic projection was still feeding fish, but a slight smile curved her lips. It was clearly AI, but her expression and mannerisms were indistinguishable from a human.
The woman threw a handful of fish food into the water, and the carp in the stream boiled: "I should go out and take a look. I can't help it, I want to see her with my own eyes."
The war robot pulled out the black box in the farthest corner and went to the slave army dormitory on the bottom floor of the fortress.
At this time, the fortress was already empty. The war robot even came to the hole that He Jinqiu had pierced through the fortress, and like a diver jumping into the ocean, gently jumped into the hole and out of the Air Fortress!
The heavy war robot fell rapidly downward until it was about to hit the ground, when it opened all its thrusters and slowly landed on the ground.
There were few people left on the streets below the fortress, only some slaves were frantically smashing nearby shops and grabbing goods from inside.
These slaves didn't care whether the fortress above them would explode, nor did they care whether they would die.
Jewelry stores, luxury stores, gold stores, electronics stores, cybernetic limbs stores, all were smashed empty, only the robot store was untouched.
Because robots require strict electronic procedures and codes to start up, even if they took them home, they would be useless.
On the street, the slaves smashed the shop windows, while the war robot calmly walked into the robot store, somewhat out of place. It walked back and forth, like a relaxed customer, selecting its favorite goods.
Finally, it chose a female robot in her thirties. The robot's bionic skin was like that of a real person. If you didn't notice the robot number on its neck, no one would be able to tell that it was a robot.
The war robot opened the female robot's chest cavity and connected the black box's wires to it. After just 7 seconds, the female robot moved.
She looked down at her palms: "Not bad."
After saying that, she opened the war robot's chest armor, revealing its nuclear-powered mechanical heart. The woman reached out and took the mechanical heart and placed it in her chest cavity.
She strolled out, putting a scarf around her neck before leaving, covering her robot number. As for the facial recognition Sky Eye system...
All simulation-type robots have their faces collected when they are released.
Besides, she herself manages the Sky Eye system.
After walking out of the store, the woman glanced at He Jinqiu, who was still fighting the airships in the sky, then turned a corner and disappeared into the city's night.
No one noticed what kind of existence this battle released from the Air Fortress.
...
Return Countdown 164:00:00.
He Jinqiu couldn't remember how many airships he had shot down. He was tired.
Unprecedentedly tired.
He had pierced an Air Fortress and sunk hundreds of airships.
This is something even ordinary Demi-Gods could hardly imagine, and He Jinqiu did it.
He slowly landed on the ground and looked around. Everywhere were enemies, and he was alone.
For a moment, he felt a sense of loneliness and bewilderment.
Because of the excessive consumption of combat, he could no longer fight intensely while supporting himself to fly with his sword. Silver Duke's strategy was correct. He Jinqiu was alone, and as long as they used human waves, they could eventually kill him. This was his home turf, outside Silver City.
Countless airship wreckage scattered everywhere, the airships breaking apart one by one, lying on the ground after exploding. There was smoke everywhere, and thick black smoke billowed from the burning wreckage. There were occasional wails from Silver City airship soldiers in the wreckage, and He Jinqiu would send them off, helping them end their suffering when he heard them. Here, He Jinqiu had turned this place into a living hell!
That airship fleet that had just returned from the forest acting...was also on the ground.
Residents were staring blankly from the buildings in the distance. They could hardly imagine that this was the work of He Jinqiu alone.
If they didn't see the battle process, they might have thought that Silver City was at war with the Roosevelt royal family.
But just at this moment, Silver City's ground troops appeared on the horizon, and a dense swarm of drones reappeared, dotted in the night sky, illuminating a vast expanse of the heavens.
He Jinqiu glanced at them calmly, but didn't care much.
The ground troops did not approach rashly. They quickly dispersed in the distance, trying to re-seal He Jinqiu's escape route, preventing him from fleeing,
But they didn't think that He Jinqiu never intended to leave.
He knew very well that the reason why he was so powerful was also because he was constantly burning his life force.
If an ordinary Demi-God did what he did, they would have long since merged with the will of the world. Li Shentan had merged with the will of the world because he forcibly improved his realm and strength by burning his life force.
But He Jinqiu seemed to be an exception.
Previously, when he looked up at the stars, using his life as fuel, he infinitely elevated his mental will.
This was also the reason why his hair turned white in an instant.
But no matter what he did, there was no trend of merging with the world.
At that moment, He Jinqiu understood that this might be the reason why Ren Xiaosu could become a god and not be assimilated by the will of the world. The will of the world was not rejecting him, but they were simply not of the same origin, and the will of the world could not accept him.
Therefore, after they coexisted with cancer, they would not be assimilated by the world, which was the key to becoming a god.
Just as the ground troops arrived, the airships that had been waiting on the Air Fortress deck all took off, scattering in all directions. These airships didn't intend to fight, but completely fled in a state of escape. Everyone was afraid of becoming He Jinqiu's target...
It must be said that with his strength alone, he created this level of deterrence. A second cultivator in the East Continent would be remembered by Roosevelt Kingdom in a heart-wrenching way.
Airships scattered and flew away.
He Jinqiu looked at the airships in the sky. He believed that Silver Duke would not dare to stay near the nuclear reactor, so he would definitely leave the air fortress.
The opponent was in those airships!
However, he had to spare twelve flying swords to use the most powerful midday Hu-style sword cultivation technique to block drones, bullets, and shells.
So Boss He only had seven flying swords that he could use to sink airships in the sky.
It was a pity that he wasn't sure if he could find Silver Duke in time.
Moreover, he would probably die here? Now that only a regiment of ground troops had arrived, there were probably nearly three divisions on their way.
This was something he, who was already at his wits' end, could not cope with.
It was a pity that there wasn't even anyone to collect his body.
Zheng Boss said he would come, but He Jinqiu refused. First, it was not easy for Key Gate to get here. Second, it was too dangerous here, and everyone didn't need to die together.
Over the years, He Jinqiu had gradually become accustomed to fighting without teammates. Being alone was also good.
Of course, he thought with a smile, no matter how much he refused, the other party would definitely find a way to come. After all, the other party was the squad leader, and he didn't need to listen to this new recruit's command. To avoid the ground troops' firepower coverage, he started to run quickly.
He ran and attacked the airships trying to escape in the sky.
But the encirclement of Silver City's ground troops was getting smaller and smaller, and the range he could move in was also getting smaller and smaller. Gradually, the ground troops' multi-functional armored vehicles stopped five kilometers away.
The Matrix cannon barrels on the vehicles quickly turned around, and the artillery units were adjusting the coverage Matrix, preparing to plow the entire enclosed area.
He Jinqiu ignored them, but at this moment, he completely abandoned his defense.
He drove all his flying swords into the sky, he wanted to attack with all his strength, and before he died, try to shoot down as many airships as possible. He was prepared to die.
...
Qing Chen was running wildly, using all his strength to run.
He had already seen the ground troops' Matrix of fire in the distance, and he knew very well who it was targeting.
The dense ground troops were like a wall, separating him and He Jinqiu into two worlds.
Gradually, people had already discovered him and turned their guns.
Even the artillery battalion turned its guns.
But Qing Chen still didn't stop.
Lao Er and the others watched as Qing Chen rushed forward recklessly, and everyone recalled what Qing Chen had just said... It turned out that this was the difference between an East Continent Knight and them.
The next moment, the ground troops' off-road vehicles had heavy machine guns turning, preparing to launch intensive fire at Qing Chen once he entered range, to stop or kill him.
For some reason, Lao Er even exclaimed in his heart at one point, Be careful.
This time it wasn't for himself. He knew that he would die without a doubt. He was genuinely worried that Qing Chen would die! It was a strange feeling.
Fighting alongside Qing Chen, even though he was just a puppet, it was as if he had returned to the battlefield hundreds of years ago, really like a reckless young man fighting bloody battles.
At that time, they fought with the royal family and the rebels, and the units they were in were used as pawns, trapped in the Robesques Grand Canyon. At that time, Silver Duke, who was only a Level 3 citizen, turned around and asked them if they dared to fight to the death? Lao San took the lead and said yes.
And then they really broke through seven lines of defense and returned to the main force. Eighteen Knights were reduced to twelve.
After that battle, Big Brother said he would live well for the fallen brothers.
But now, if those dead brothers saw them like this, they would probably dig open their coffins and spit on them.
At this moment, Lao Er looked at the young man's back, who was running faster and faster toward the rain of bullets, and he suddenly hoped that this enemy could charge forward.
Until he tore through all of Silver City's troops, killing seven times in and seven times out, for three days and three nights!
Qing Chen suddenly asked, "Sometimes, I really want to take you to Qingshan Cliff in Forbidden Zone 002 to take a look, to see the footprints of those East Continent Knight ancestors, to see the words carved on the mountain. I think you West Continent Black Knights definitely don't have such a place, do you?
All Knights should visit Qingshan Cliff.
Look at the last meter, the words carved by Ren Xiaosu, "Life should be like a candle, burning from beginning to end, always bright."
Look at the words carved by all the Knight ancestors, "Only faith and the sun and moon are eternal."
And then look at the words carved by the founder, Ren He, on Qingshan Cliff... forever young!"
At this time, Qing Chen had entered the range of the ground troops. He actually accelerated again and said calmly, "Look, this is what an East Continent Knight is!"
The next moment, a torrent of bullets poured down like a rainstorm. Guns and fire came at him.
"Order!"
Qing Chen's pupils suddenly narrowed, and a golden color kept flowing in his eyes!
He exhaled white air like arrows!
The flame patterns on his cheeks bulged!
Qing Chen's killing intent spread like a substance.
Lao Er and the others watched as this young man entered his prime. Then, the bullets trying to intercept him all stopped in midair near Qing Chen.
Bullet after bullet was embedded in the air, unable to move forward.
Lao Er was shocked. He had heard about this technique of Qing Chen's in the intelligence, but only by experiencing it personally could one know how shocking it was. Originally, you should have died a second ago, the rain of bullets should have torn you to pieces. But the bullets suddenly stopped, as if fate made them stop. Too exciting!
In an instant, Qing Chen roared, "Chaos!"
With a loud bang, the bullets embedded in the air wall suddenly shot back!
The backward bullets hit the ground troop defenses. For a time, too many soldiers were shot that a blood mist arose on the ground troop battlefield! Qing Chen did not stop, he suddenly roared, "Kill! For those who trust you, and whom you trust, break through the world! Kill!"
Lao Er and the others roared together under his control. The Silver City ground troops actually felt a wave of fear under the solitary shouts of these six people.
In an instant, two shadows and six figures rushed into the ground troops without hesitation!
The Black Knights only felt their souls tremble along with them. This long-lost feeling was once again found in an outsider.
They suddenly recalled what the West Continent founder, Professor Ren He, had said: the most important quality of a Knight is the ability to influence and infect others.
This is what a Knight truly is.
...
...
He Jinqiu saw that the ground troops had adjusted their positions, and he was ready.
Before the ground troops opened fire, several places were in chaos. The originally neat formation was immediately disrupted.
This chaos even stopped the ground troops' encirclement.
Even the armored vehicles suddenly turned around and aimed at the rear. Half of the drones also turned back quickly to the ground troops, and gunfire erupted!
He Jinqiu looked at them in surprise.
But he saw that the ground troops were in turmoil and people were falling over.
At this time, a boundless cloud of energy surged from the ground troops, a gust of wind blew up the dust on the ground, and even blew a gap in the ground troops' formation!
It was Qing Chen!
Boss He frowned.
He had pierced through the Air Fortress, shot down the airships, and even lured the ground troops here, just to prevent these troops from pursuing Qing Chen.
As a result, he attracted all the troops, but the other party didn't leave at all!
He Jinqiu and Qing Chen, one was trying to lure the Silver City troops to the distant forest, and the other was trying to delay the troops here. Neither of them thought much about themselves.
Now, Qing Chen was back.
Qing Chen's loud voice came from afar: "Boss He, I'm here to save you!"
He Jinqiu suddenly smiled. Although the other party had wasted the opportunity he had created, and they might both die here in the end, he
Suddenly felt happy.
He used all his strength to ask loudly: "Can you handle it? I'm going to kill Silver Duke!"
In the crowd, Qing Chen responded loudly: "Don't worry!"
He Jinqiu suddenly turned around. He no longer looked at the ground troops' position, nor did he worry any longer.
He believed that from this moment on, no bullet would fly towards him, and the Silver City ground troops' shells would no longer hit him!
He Jinqiu stood in the middle of the battlefield, and the nineteen flying swords in the sky became agile again, killing airships without any distractions.
His hair was white, his eyebrows were white, and his eyes seemed to burn with a fire! The sword immortal was back!
He Jinqiu didn't have X-ray vision, and he didn't know which airship Silver Duke was in, but...he could shoot down all the airships.
In just a few dozen breaths, airships fell from the sky one after another.
At this time, Silver Duke in the fleet sensed that something was wrong. He knew that continuing to hide would definitely lead to death. He Jinqiu was going all out!
Silver Duke ordered: "Duo Yun, Changzhou, and Pretty cover me! Attack where Joker is, force him to be distracted!" Then, he ordered the transport airship he was in: "Full speed ahead, get out of range of his flying swords!" The next moment, three airships did not run, they turned around and rushed towards the ground troops. He Jinqiu saw a transport airship accelerating, escaping to the north! "Go!"
The flying swords in the sky turned around and made sharp whistling sounds in the air, slaughtering those three airships.
He Jinqiu shouted: "Open a passage for me in the north!"
They didn't say another word. He didn't say why he had to do this, nor did he say how to do it.
It was just a sentence, Open a passage for me in the north, and the ground troops' position in the north was really broken through by Qing Chen. This was the camaraderie and trust between comrades.
