Night’s Nomenclature

Chapter 895: The End of the Battle

No one had ever imagined the extent to which a small piece of rebar from a construction site could be used.

But it was with such a piece of rebar that an Airship was easily pierced with a single throw.

Rebar is too ordinary to suit a Demi-God's status.

Common sense dictates that a Demi-God's spear should at least be made of alloy, perhaps even inlaid with gems. Even if you dislike such flamboyant things, you could still study aerodynamics and have a few intricately designed tungsten rods specially made for you as kinetic weapons.

But Li Shutong didn't do any of that. He abandoned all the flashy stuff and simply used a piece of rebar, yet he wielded it with the feeling of a divine Scepter kinetic weapon.

Simple and unadorned, dull and tedious.

But it is precisely because of this that this Demi-God is so terrifying.

Because you suddenly realize that whatever he holds in his hand is the greatest threat.

Or rather, as long as he is alive, he is the greatest threat to the enemy.

The appearance of this Knight Demi-God was not as splendid as that of a sword immortal; it was even a little rustic… But the moment he appeared, the battle should have ended.

One by one, pieces of rebar flew straight into the sky, piercing one Airship after another. The airships exploded into a shower of sparks in the morning sun, looking exceptionally beautiful.

The most crucial point is that the Airships were actually equipped with missile interception systems. If there were surface-to-air missiles coming, they would use heat-source locking to carry out precise interceptions.

But…the rebar had no heat source.

In fact, Roosevelt Kingdom also had other interception technologies, but no one had really expected the appearance of rebar as a surface-to-air weapon. At this time, the only thing that could limit Li Shutong's strength…seemed to be the number of rebars.

During this process, the more than thirty rebars behind Li Shutong gradually ran out, but there were still more than forty Airships.

The Second Prince roared in the command room, "Bomb him! His rebars are gone, bomb him!" But Li Shutong was too fast for the Airship missiles to hit.

Missiles were indeed slightly faster than Li Shutong, but the problem was that they still had to travel over a thousand meters.

By the time they arrived, Li Shutong had already run hundreds of meters away.

At this time, an operations officer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "His rebars are gone!"

But as soon as the words left his mouth, Li Shutong was seen bending down to pick up a stone…

He tossed it in his hand to check the weight, then suddenly stretched his body, twisting his waist forcefully. The stone, imbued with Knight's Qi, flew like a cannonball across a thousand meters, emitting a buzzing sound, and blew up the Turbine of an Airship…

The operations officer was stunned. This Demi-God could blow up an Airship by casually picking up a stone, and he actually brought a whole bundle of rebars out of respect?!

To strike ground forces, Airships can carry more ammunition and have longer endurance thanks to their micro-nuclear reactors, making them more suitable for long-term combat.

But to kill this kind of Demi-God, you either need supersonic Fighter Jets or directly deploy an Air Fortress.

Relying on the speed of the Airships is probably impossible.

Inside an Airship, the Second Prince roared, "Quick, quick, quick, increase altitude! To 3000 meters! No, 4000 meters! No, 8000 meters!" The Second Prince was scared now; even an altitude of 4000 meters couldn't give him any sense of security.

But at this point, it was too late.

One stone after another flew into the sky, then pierced through one Turbine after another.

The next moment, the Airship the Second Prince was in was pierced. He frantically looked at the operations officer, "Where are the fleets from Blackwater City and Phoenix City? Why haven't they arrived yet?" The operations officer hesitated for a moment and said, "They've lost contact!" The Second Prince froze.

The fleets from Blackwater City and Phoenix City were gone?

He quickly realized something was wrong. This wasn't an opportunity to achieve merit and win back his father's affection; it was a trap laid for him from the very beginning.

The Fate Weaver responsible for targeting him must have seen this scene, but they didn't reveal it, instead letting him die!

The Second Prince suddenly understood many things. In this battle, perhaps the Roosevelt royal family was the biggest winner.

Qing Chen knew that the Silver Duke had the Death's Cup, because Third Brother's memories had it.

In Third Brother's memories, only the Silver Duke knew the whereabouts of the Death's Cup, not even Third Brother himself, because the Silver Duke had to prevent anyone from betraying him.

Therefore, in Qing Chen's view, killing the Silver Duke was a must. As long as the Silver Duke was killed, the ancestral spirits of the Roosevelt royal family would have to rest in peace underground. But what he didn't expect was that the Roosevelt royal family would inform the Silver Duke of his death in advance, and then leave countless blanks in the fragments of fate for the Silver Duke to guess, ultimately leading the Silver Duke, with suspicion and uncertainty, to find the Tenth Brother and make a move for revenge.

In the end, the Fate Weavers eliminated the Silver Duke, eliminated the sword immortal He Jinqiu, killed the Second Prince who was competing with the Storm Duke for position, and obtained the Death's Cup. They obtained the capital for the imperial expedition, solidified the Storm Duke's position, and eliminated the root cause of internal strife.

Now, only the last link of their plan remained.

Looking at the overall situation, the Fate Weavers' actions in this war were like divine strokes. It seemed like they did nothing, yet they seemed to have done a lot.

This ability is called "God's Perspective' by the Fate Weavers, just like He Jinqiu's "Noon," Dayu's "Formless," Zard's "Sky Burial," and Qing Chen's "Divine Cut." God's Perspective is one of the Fate Weavers' most powerful abilities, the other being "Preemptive Strike'.

This is why the Fate Weavers have been able to control the entire kingdom for thousands of years. Throughout human history, no dynasty has been able to stand for thousands of years. The Roosevelt Kingdom is the first.

Of course, this may also be the reason for their short lifespan…the world is fair.

Qing Chen and He Jinqiu didn't have the Fate Weavers' God's Perspective, so they didn't know that their actions would be utilized by the Fate Weavers.

The enemy won't follow your script; fate has its own ideas.

All Qing Chen and the others could do was try their best and do what they should do.

This time they could kill the Silver Duke, next time the Duke of Blackwater, then the Storm Duke, until they killed all the dukes and kings of Roosevelt. Ghosts have their paths, and gods have theirs.

At this time, Li Shutong looked up and saw that more than half of the Airships, after having their Turbines pierced, struggled to fly for a while before crashing.

A small number finally increased their altitude and fled into the distance.

However, before they could completely leave the battlefield, a white dragon and a white figure over two meters tall suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

The white dragon is the Shikigami Bai Rongyi, and the tall woman in white is the long-haired Bai Baimu Gui.

Bai Baimu Gui's arms are now full of eyeballs, seventy pairs, not counting those Qing Chen collected in the West Continent.

In an instant, Bai Rongyi swooped towards the Airships, wrapping them up in its body and lifting them into the sky. After the airships lost their balance, they were thrown heavily to the ground. Bai Baimu Gui blocked the path of the Airships, spreading its arms.

"Ten Directions World."

In the blink of an eye, the world above the sky seemed to be cut open by invisible blades, and seven or eight Airships were instantly cut into pieces, the cuts smooth and neat.

This is just a class-A Bai Baimu Gui.

Li Shutong looked at this scene with some emotion. His apprentice, to say the least, has a lot of friends.

He walked towards the crash site of the Airships, wanting to see if there were any Forbidden Artifacts.

Even if there were no Forbidden Artifacts, there should be class-A or class-B Metahumans, right? Take them back, cultivate them for a few decades, and you can always grow Forbidden Artifacts.

This is Li Shutong's current strategy: if there are Forbidden Artifacts, grab them; if not…then create Forbidden Artifacts.

Anyway, he can live a long time, and Qing Chen can also live a long time. In their lifetime, they should be able to repay their debts to their descendants.

On the other side of the land battlefield.

The Silver City army has shown signs of defeat. The giants even charged out of the forest, and they encountered Silver City's most elite First Field Army, the Silver Duke's direct troops.

The First Army is the elite of Silver City. The soldiers of this field army are all equipped with semi-enclosed exoskeletons, as if they are wearing skeletons outside their bodies.

After wearing them, the soldiers' outer arms, outer legs, chest, and back are covered with lightweight armor.

It can use mechanical transmission to give an ordinary soldier the speed and strength of an E-class Gene Soldier, allowing a special forces unit composed of E-class Gene Soldiers to perform at the level of a full-squad.

This fully mechanized field troop type can even cross mountains and wilderness in a day, traveling 500 kilometers, going where mechanized troops can't go, and being more flexible and ferocious.

Moreover, the exoskeleton armor is equipped with firearms and two 40-caliber grenade launchers, with extremely fierce firepower.

In just one encounter, hundreds of giants were seriously injured by grenade launchers, and some unlucky giants were directly killed by grenade launchers hitting their heads.

The giants' advance stopped for the first time. This is a contest between strength and technology.

A giant roared, "Enough!" (Home Families, we can't win, let's retreat?! Let's call it a day!)

Giants are fierce, but they lack organizational discipline and fighting faith. If they can win, they will fight; if they can't win against human technology, they will run away. It's not that the giants are cowards, but they have been fighting humans for hundreds of years and know when they can win and when they can't.

The commanders with telepathic abilities conveyed the message: Home Families, the king's instructor has taught us how to do this, follow suit! The next moment.

To resist human Firearms, the most ferocious warriors among the giants, under the power of the Zhunti Method, raised armored vehicles as blast shields one by one.

The giants slightly bent down behind the "blast shields', forming a long, advancing team. All the giants put their left hands on the shoulders of the giant in front, advancing rapidly like special forces.

If you looked at it from the front, the First Army soldiers could only see a huge blast shield approaching them.

No matter how they shoot or fire grenade launchers, it's like a game when they hit the blast shield; it has no effect!

The elite of the First Army were immediately shocked. They had never seen such a sturdy, huge, and ferocious special forces…

The key is that they've fought giants more than once or twice. Although giants have terrifying strength and speed, their lethality is not as good as modern technology.

Moreover, giants don't have much tactics on the battlefield; they just charge hard. If they can't win, they run.

So everyone wasn't that afraid. After repelling the first wave of giants, the following waves weren't as fierce.

But this time is different.

Are you afraid of giants who know tactics? We've never seen giants like this before!

This time, the giants didn't run away when they encountered grenade launchers but continued to advance rapidly.

The elites who were accustomed to the previous combat mode didn't know what to do for a while!

Fortunately, elites are elites. They quickly adjusted their strategy, retreated slightly, and prepared to encircle and raid from both flanks, directly cutting off the giant's long dragon formation. However, they had just pulled back a little distance when more tree spears came from behind.

Not only that, before they could raid, they were raided!

Suddenly, more than twenty three-headed and six-armed Demon-Subduing Vajras, flying God Women with red ribbons fluttering around them, Li Shutong in his training suit, and a Qing Chen picking his nose, rushed out from the flanks.

These twenty-plus Class-A experts are too brutal.

When others fight, they will at least weigh the pros and cons; they will at least retreat when they see danger.

They are different. They go wherever the danger is greatest. If they die, they die.

A war is protracted; sometimes it's normal to fight for a whole day.

This battle was also long, with both sides in a tug-of-war, and those twenty-plus Class-A experts would appear once every hour, killing one batch after another, endlessly.

This is the most desperate thing.

Moreover, there's also Zard hiding underground on the other side. The sapling is like a great white shark's dorsal fin, swimming on the ground, occasionally pulling an officer underground, never to be seen again.

Everyone is clearly on land, but they've created a sense of tension like floating in the Forbidden Sea.

Finally, in the fourth hour, the elite of the First Army began to gradually collapse, and they began to want to flee the battlefield.

However, the gendarmerie began to shoot fleeing soldiers in the rear, ruthlessly forcing the soldiers to go back and fight the giants.

The Roosevelt Kingdom has invaded the Forbidden Forest many times over the years, and the gendarmes have always been stationed in the rear to supervise the army. This is something they are familiar with. The soldiers are in a dilemma; there are gendarmes in front and giants in the rear.

The gendarmes roared in the communication channel: "Do you know what the consequences of being a deserter are? Your children, wives, and parents will become slaves! What are you afraid of? We still have main battle tanks!"

The soldiers despaired. They turned around to fight the giants. Even if they didn't survive, they couldn't implicate their parents, wives, and children! At this time, nuclear-powered main battle tanks arrived on the battlefield, and the soldiers regrouped behind the tanks and rushed back.

But the appearance of Zheng Yuandong crushed their last hope. A meteorite carrying a huge flame fell from the sky, and with a loud boom, the entire main battle tank position was smashed into a blazing inferno.

Now, even the gendarmerie was scared and started to run away.

Seeing this scene, Dayu said coldly from behind the crowd: "Chase and kill, giants charge. The purpose of war is to kill as many enemy forces as possible, otherwise, they will be reorganized by the Roosevelt Kingdom and become a threat again! Leave none alive, kill them all!"

This battle, from the moment of crossing to now, lasted 10 hours and finally came to an end.

In the forest, Qing Chen slowly opened his eyes. He wanted to get up, but was held down by Qing Ji: "Lie down, you must rest now. Your body is the foundation of a cultivator. Fighting and bloodshed are good things, but you also need to be methodical."

Qing Chen reluctantly lay down. He touched his ribs: "Is it healed…? Wait, didn't I just break three ribs? Why are there five now?" Qing Ji glanced at him: "You've broken ribs before, but you certainly didn't pay attention to rest and immobilization then, instead letting them heal crookedly. Don't think it's okay,

the chest and abdomen are the foundation of humans. Broken or crooked ribs will affect your strength. So I broke the badly healed ribs again, so that they can heal properly."

Qing Chen: "…You did a good job; don't do it again next time."

At this time, he turned his head and looked at He Jinqiu's body. The latter was lying there quietly, as if the noise of the world had nothing to do with him.

Finally, he could take Boss He home.
