Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1683: Chapter 888: Though Faced by Millions, I Go Forward

This is a forest, full of leaves; you can just pick them up... Can we not pull our own hair?!

Just when Qing Chen was leading the puppets in the counterattack against Silver City, he felt that having six Knights simultaneously wield the Autumn Leaf Knife was probably the most efficient way to harvest.

But bending down to collect leaves would greatly reduce marching efficiency, and it wouldn’t look good.

At such a thrilling moment, a group of people constantly bending over like old ladies picking up bottles, does it seem right?!

Moreover, isn’t the munition depot right on top of the Black Knights’ heads?

Each person’s head has about a hundred thousand hairs; how long would it take to collect a hundred thousand leaves?!

So, just after advancing forty kilometers, every Black Knight’s back head was bald with a large patch, blood oozing painfully.

If they keep fighting, surely nothing will remain on their heads.

But, gradually.

They followed Qing Chen all the way through the killing, watching this youth getting closer to the front lines; they felt deeply that this boy never planned to turn back.

Actually, now the world’s attention is all on He Jinqiu; Qing Chen could turn and run, and nobody would care.

But Qing Chen truly had no intention of turning back.

Just like on Laojun Mountain, he walked barefoot through bloodstained paths, desperately smashing the huge rock he held against the business car about to leave.

Back then, he could risk his life for two deceased Kunlun members; now, he can do the same.

In a fleeting moment, Qing Chen led the puppets out of the forest, accelerating further!

At a certain moment, Lao Er suddenly felt as if they had returned to a battlefield centuries ago, charging ahead with their eldest brother, also so fearless.

Those times were exceptionally beautiful.

...

...

The aerial fortress did not fall.

The most stable system in all aerial fortresses is not the nuclear reactor but its anti-gravity system.

During the initial design of the aerial fortress, humans had to ensure: it would not casually fall from the sky.

Unless someone penetrates 40% of the anti-gravity components behind the protective armor horizontally, it will not fall.

He Jinqiu knew this, which is why he chose to pierce through it from top to bottom.

Though he detested this continent, he didn’t wish for it to fall and crush the residents below.

However, the nuclear reactor of this aerial fortress has already been destroyed, making it impossible to navigate anymore.

Inside the fortress, the officer responsible for security yelled frantically: "Hurry! Quickly retract the control rod into the reactor, push the coolant inside! Prevent a steam explosion! Block the graphite channel, stop a secondary explosion!"

The Roosevelt Kingdom has a complete set of safety procedures and optimized design structures to prevent nuclear plant and reactor explosions.

But even so, they never expected someone would completely pierce the nuclear reactor from above.

This kind of attack method has already exceeded common sense!

Does this person freaking not fear nuclear radiation?

Simply inconceivable!

At this moment, the Silver City Duke, with a face ashen, hurried out of the command room; he couldn’t stay here anymore.

Although now the nuclear reactor hasn’t exploded and everything remains under control, it’s impossible to guarantee it won’t explode in the future, so they must leave.

On the fortress, Lao Shi said: "Big brother, the escape transport airship is ready and can take off from the deck anytime."

The Silver City Duke nodded: "Evacuate!"

However, at this time, a combat advisor in the shaky fortress looked at the occasionally visible holographic sand table and suddenly said: "That Sword Immortal... that enemy isn’t dead! He’s just below the aerial fortress!"

The Silver City Duke’s pupils suddenly contracted.

He hadn’t expected someone could pierce through the aerial fortress and the nuclear reactor and still remain intact!

He thought for a moment and said: "Lao Shi, command all soldiers to evacuate and activate all transport airships, fighter jets, and armed helicopters on the deck! All transport airships must take off together! After we take off, swiftly land outside the city, and don’t become targets in the sky!"

The Silver City Duke had made a judgment: he himself is a demigod, so he understands that even if He Jinqiu is now burning life, he can’t fight endlessly.

If all the airships on the deck depart simultaneously, the opponent can’t determine which one he is on.

Absolutely can’t become targets in the air; if the airships get shot down, everyone will be crammed in an ’iron can.’

If they land, facing the worn-and-exhausted He Jinqiu, he has absolute confidence in victory.

They’re all demigods, and he’s prepared to succeed without reason of failure. Besides, this is his turf; as long as He Jinqiu can’t deliver a fatal strike, he won’t die.

After speaking, the Silver City Duke didn’t look back and walked towards the deck.

At this moment.

Below the aerial fortress, the shattered protective armor by He Jinqiu fell like pieces of a LEGO toy hit, falling down one by one.

On the ground, Silver City residents screamed and fled.

A wreck as large as a car fell, its shadow gradually enveloping the ground, increasingly larger.

A little boy stared blankly, even forgetting to escape.

The boy’s mother had already run several meters away; when she turned back and saw this scene, she ran back heart-wrenchingly.

But before she reached, a streaming light flew from the horizon, blasting the wreck into dust.

As the fortress wreck shattered, the boy’s raised sight just caught sight of the drifting Sword Immortal standing on earth: "Mom, he’s awesome."

The woman had no time to marvel; she picked up the child and quickly fled.

Yet, as she ran away, she couldn’t help but glance back at He Jinqiu.

At this time, He Jinqiu rode the sword in the wind, gazing at the returning Silver City Air Fleet, his eyes filled with weariness.

The Silver City Duke wasn’t dead, but his opponent, the Silver Star Sky Fortress, was already ’dead.’

As Qing Chen expected, even with the life-burning He Jinqiu, it’s impossible to fight endlessly until the world’s end.

However... he can fight until the end of his life.

The next moment, He Jinqiu once again transformed into a meteor, in an unbeatable manner, and greeted the returning Silver City Fleet.

Stars moved in the sky; those transport airships summoned forcefully by the Silver City Duke were pierced one by one by He Jinqiu.

The airships, once formidable and intimidating, were akin to ordinary thin tin cans used in daily life, pierced effortlessly with a knife.

At the same time, the Silver City Duke, waiting for this moment all along, immediately stepped onto the deck, along with thousands of soldiers inside the fortress, flying out on separate airships heading beyond the fortress.

He even chose a nondescript transport airship to hide.

The Silver City Duke’s purpose was clear: to exhaust He Jinqiu’s spirit and will at all costs until this glorious East Continent Demigod becomes completely drained!

This approach was quite shameless, devoid of demigod dignity, but in the Silver City Duke’s view, as long as he could win, it was meaningful.

However, just 700 kilometers west of Silver City, an air fleet was flying swiftly.

This fleet didn’t have a large number of ships, but they were all Royal Family elites.

After realizing the third sibling’s death, the Duke of Storm City immediately organized this unit to head to Silver City, the fastest speed to join the battle with the available airships... Numerous airships still docked at the edge of the Taboo Forest, unable to return in time.

At this time, the Second Prince of the Royal Family was leading the operation.

In his airship, combat advisors swiftly reported intelligence transmitted by informants: "The Silver Star Sky Fortress has been destroyed."

"Silver City has suffered the loss of 39 airships; the unknown demigod continues to fight with no signs of exhaustion."

"Numerous airships have departed from the aerial fortress; the specific location of the Silver City Duke cannot be determined."

The Second Prince listened silently; he carried significant duties this time; the father had issued an order mandating the deaths of Joker and the Silver City Duke.

The Second Prince felt inner joy, believing it was a chance to win his father’s favor back as long as his battle performed brilliantly.

Today, there are only two Chapters, requiring a day’s adjustment, then attempting to conclude this plot tomorrow. The plot has reached a brief moment of peace, not really a cliffhanger.
