Chapter 891: Fate Weaver Beyond the Stage, The Nomenclature of Night
“Silver Duke is dead!”
In the flagship of the Blackwater City fleet, a soldier observed the battlefield from a satellite perspective. He didn't look anywhere else; his gaze followed He Jinqiu the entire time. After Qing Chen joined the battle,
the three Fate Weavers on the flagship also began to pay attention to the fight.
A combat staff officer looked at the Holographic Sand Table. They saw He Jinqiu shoot down the transport airship, they saw Silver Duke shatter He Jinqiu's nine flying swords, and they saw He Jinqiu sever Silver Duke's tendons and hamstring.
This battle started at the Air Fortress, at an altitude unimaginable and unreachable for ordinary humans! It continued until He Jinqiu's life force was exhausted, and Qing Chen took Silver Duke's head with three divine slashes.
The combat staff officers were speechless in astonishment. A duke of the Roosevelt Empire, actually dead!
But when they turned to look at the Fate Weavers, they found that these people showed no surprise, as if they had known the outcome all along.
This was the ending they had already written in the fragments of fate!
At this time, a commander of the Blackwater City army suddenly asked: “If the three of you have seen this battle in the fragments of fate, then we should have long ago used Silver City as a reference point to determine their approximate location… roughly 2 kilometers east of Silver City. If we had dropped a missile earlier, not only would Silver Duke die, He Jinqiu would die, and oker would die too.”
The commander's implication: oker is still alive. But one of the older Fate Weavers gave him a sideways glance: “If the fate you see is a result you can accept, then don't try to change it. Because you don't know what kind of gift fate has prepared for you after you change it.”
Another Fate Weaver said: “Besides, there are reasons why we don't change it.”
Just then, a combat staff officer said: “An airship from Silver City is requesting communication.”
The next moment, the tenth Black Knight appeared in the holographic projection. His eyes were slightly red, and his spirit was somewhat listless: “This is Old Ten. I want to make a deal with you.
Fate Weaver asked: “What kind of deal?”
Old Ten said: “My elder brother told me before leaving the Air Fortress, that if he really died, I should use the location of the Death's Cup to trade with you. I know that the Blackwater Fleet and the Phoenix Fleet are at the outpost, and the Second Prince's fleet has already arrived at Silver City. If you go kill oker, I will immediately tell you where the Death's Cup is. That He Jinqiu is already dead, oker doesn't have an airship and can't run far, it won't be difficult for you to kill him!”
The Fate Weavers looked at each other again. One of them calmly said to Old Ten: “We can begin.” Old Ten was stunned; he didn't understand what these Fate Weavers meant by this nonsensical statement.
What can begin?
But in that moment of distraction, Old Ten only felt a sharp pain in his neck, as if a needle had been inserted.
He looked back in astonishment, only to see his apprentice behind him, somehow producing a syringe and injecting it into his neck. “You betrayed me?” Old Ten couldn't believe it.
But the young apprentice looked at his master, who slowly fell to the ground, expressionless.
He replaced Old Ten in the holographic projection: “He's been anesthetized. I'll send you the coordinates. Come get him.”
At this moment, the soldiers and officers in the Blackwater City airship were shocked. They hadn't expected such a turn of events, and when they looked at the Fate Weavers, they found that this event was also in their predictions.
The other party had been waiting, waiting for Old Ten to personally tell them that they already knew the whereabouts of the Death's Cup.
The reason why these Fate Weavers didn't interfere with the course of fate was precisely because they had seen this scene long ago. That's why they had previously said, “It seems we don't need to do anything. Both targets will die, and we will get what we want. I have seen the future.”
The two targets, Silver Duke and He Jinqiu, were already dead, and they had obtained what they wanted.
Soon, the Blackwater City fleet and Old Ten's airship converged.
All the airships landed on the ground, and two Gene Soldiers carried Old Ten onto the flagship of Blackwater City, then carried him to the bottom of the ship.
Here, there was a device used for body snatching.
A Gene Soldier and Old Ten lay down at the same time. Just ten minutes later, Old Ten opened his eyes: “Silver Duke actually buried the Death's Cup in the Royal Capital. No wonder we haven't found it for so long.”
Fate Weaver nodded. He turned to the commander and said: “Immediately transmit the intelligence to His Majesty the King. We are returning now.”
The commander was stunned: “Wait, the Second Prince is still pursuing oker, and this oker is also the kingdom's number one target. Don't we need to participate in the pursuit together?
Fate Weaver glanced at him: “The Second Prince has dozens of airships, that’s enough. No matter how powerful oker is, he has already used up his awakened abilities, and used up his Knight True Qi,
leaving only an A-class shell.”
The commander asked again: “Now that Silver City is leaderless, and the Black Knights are almost wiped out with only Old Five left, doesn't anyone need to take over here?”
Fate Weaver replied: “Storm City will take over here next, but not now.” One minute after the return order, the Blackwater Fleet and the Phoenix Fleet simultaneously left.
Three minutes later, the Royal Capital Imperial Guard surrounded a residential building. They sealed it off tightly, even forbidding the Imperial Guard itself from entering the building!
Five minutes later, a Fate Weaver came alone. He entered the elevator, reached the first floor, and finally opened the room at the end of the corridor. In the compartment behind the wardrobe, he found a goblet made of pure gold.
The goblet was luxurious and elegant, inlaid with 36 captivating rubies on the outside, looking like the eyes of venomous snakes.
For some reason, while staring at this goblet, the Fate Weaver thought, if he were to drip his blood into it, the blood would surely be delicious.
The Fate Weaver chuckled, he was already A-class, yet he almost got tempted by a Forbidden Artifact.
He took the Death's Cup out of the residential building and returned to the palace under the escort of an entire Imperial Guard unit.
Actually, the Roosevelt royal family had a plan for a long-term expedition, but because the Death's Cup was lost, they never had the confidence to cross the ocean and defeat a country.
They had been waiting.
Now, the most important link in the Empire's expedition plan was finally in place.
…
Outside Silver City.
Qing Chen was gouging out Silver Duke's eyeballs. He said to Boss He: “Shendai Yunluo will be overjoyed now, the eyeballs of a Demi-God! How could he get such a good thing by himself? I'm really looking forward to seeing Byakumegami evolve into its complete form. If one hundred pairs of A-level eyeballs can make Byakumegami rival a Demi-God, then adding a Demi-God eyeball and a dozen A-level eyeballs, what will the effect be? Boss He, do you think it can stand up to you?”
Qing Chen put the eyeballs into a formalin bag while continuing to say to Boss He: “Did you see my divine slash just now? Wasn't it magnificent? Just say, with this ability, even a Demi-God was killed. Isn't it cool? When my awakened ability reaches Demi-God level, it won't just be seven divine slashes. I feel like there will be more, maybe three times, amazing right? Next time I meet Silver Duke, I can blind his eyes and beat him to a pulp. Of course, you contributed half to this, what? Be realistic, okay? Alright, alright, you contributed 9%.”
Qing Chen suddenly became chatty.
However, Boss He sat slumped on the ground, paying no attention to Qing Chen.
Qing Chen suddenly felt a little down: “I know that you’ve burned your life force and won’t live long, so you had to kill Silver Duke before you die. But at least hold on a little longer, let Zheng Boss see you one more time. Why are you in such a hurry to go?”
As he complained, his mood became even worse.
He knew that war is not a dinner party, it's a bloody sacrifice in exchange for true victory.
He knew that a victory without bloodshed and sacrifice is a false victory.
But even though he knew all these reasons, when Boss He left, Qing Chen was still heartbroken. He looked at Boss He, who was now completely silent, and calculated which Black Knights were still alive.
Calculating, twelve Black Knights only Old Five and Old Ten were left, the others were all dead.
But how could Old Five still be alive? It was Old Five who set the trap for Boss He, bringing Boss He back to Silver City. How could this person continue to live?
Qing Chen sacrificed Silver Duke's body. Marionette, as if eating this kind of food for the first time, flew happily. Marionette, who originally had seven threads, actually grew an eighth one!
Qing Chen said to Marionette: “This is considered an early celebration, an early taste of something good. Your previous master never gave you such treatment, did he?” If Marionette could cry now, it would definitely cry.
So many mice weren't eaten in vain, and so many grievances weren't suffered in vain!
Qing Chen lifted Boss He's body, put him on his back, and slowly walked towards the west.
He wanted to take Boss He home, and didn't want him to stay in this place, the ground was quite cold.
But just then, he heard the sound of engines in the sky.
Qing Chen suddenly turned his head, only to see a fleet speeding towards him, the target was extremely clear!
“This damned thing,” Qing Chen turned around and ran with Boss He on his back. He didn't have the ability of a sword immortal, and when he encountered enemies in the air, he was completely helpless.
If he were at the Demi-God level, he could directly use divine slashes to cut airships. All electronic components in the path of the divine slash would explode.
But now, he could only run.
But before he could run far, he heard a roar from the front. Just a few seconds later, he saw the shadows of Silver City's army appearing on the horizon.
The three divisions of the army finally arrived…
West, north, south, all army troops, and the royal fleet from Silver City to the east!
At this moment, Qing Chen also felt what Boss He felt before, the feeling of looking around and feeling lost and surrounded by enemies!
