Night’s Nomenclature

Chapter 896: 6 Li Shutongs

Old Five collapsed.

He thought he had a sure win.

Three field armies totaling 30,000 men, including self-propelled artillery and main battle tanks, with the First Army being the elite, there was no way they could lose, no matter how you think about it.

However, the situation reversed too suddenly. Somehow, they lost.

"Retreat, retreat quickly," Old Five sat in the command vehicle, looking at the devastation on the battlefield, and said weakly, "Don't go back to Silver City, we'll go straight north."

Old Five, with his own service company, quietly left the battlefield.

Returning to Silver City at this time would mean being killed by giants, and going to the royal city would mean being killed by the Fate Weaver. He could only go to the northern coast, board his prepared Airship, and start over on a deserted island.

This deserted island must be remote, even in the harsh northern lands, it must be a place that no one would want.

Otherwise, when the Roosevelt Empire launches an expedition, they might sweep him away as they pass by.

However, of the four Airships along the coast, two are transport airships that are always stocked with various supplies, and the soldiers on board are all trained female soldiers. The relationship between Silver City and the Roosevelt royal family was always delicate, so he was always prepared for a retreat if things went south or they were defeated. Old Five acted generously, but he was much more cautious than his other brothers, which is why he lived to the end.

The troops quickly headed north. After driving about 120 kilometers, they saw a small military base hidden among dense coconut groves.

The convoy arrived, Old Five got out of the car, and hurried towards the military base.

But strangely, there were no guards outside the military base.

Old Five instinctively stepped back, but at that moment he heard the female soldiers inside laughing and talking, not at all like there was any danger.

Could it be that the guards he stationed here were embezzling and playing with his female slaves? The thought angered him.

With a bang, he kicked open the door and went inside, followed by his service company. Old Five roared, "Who the hell is so bold?!"

Entering the luxuriously decorated military base, he froze.

He saw a young noble dressed in a white hunting suit sitting on the sofa, surrounded by female slaves.

The young noble said something, and the female slaves sitting or leaning beside the sofa burst into laughter.

This scene stunned Old Five. These female slaves were the ones he had painstakingly collected. Asian and Black slaves were fine, but those white female slaves were family members of white people who had committed crimes, making them difficult to deal with.

He had never seen these female slaves smile so genuinely at him…never.

Old Five looked to both sides. There were two young Asian men and women in black suits standing on either side of the sofa, coldly looking at him.

"Who are you?" As soon as Old Five finished speaking, a sound of gun bolts being pulled echoed from his service company behind him.

"Daybreak, Shendai Yunluo."

The military base was immediately tense. The female slaves panicked and tried to get up and run, but they heard Shendai Yunluo comfort them: "Don't be afraid, I'll take care of him for you…no, not for you, but for Boss He."

Old Five narrowed his eyes: "He Jinqiu?"

"Yeah, we heard from Boss Zheng when we were on Whale Island that you plotted to arrest Boss He and tortured him," Shendai Yunluo said with a smile, "Actually, I don't know Boss He well, but you shouldn't have, you absolutely shouldn't have provoked our little Boss."

Old Five froze: "Shendai Yunluo, I've heard of your name. When did Joker become your boss?"

"Ah…it was only a few days ago. It was just a joke, but after seeing him working so hard to collect eyeballs for me, I thought it would be nice to have a boss like that," Shendai Yunluo explained with a smile.

Shendai Kongyu on the side pouted, making excuses for himself.

At this time, Old Five slowly backed away. He already knew who these three were: three A-ranks, including two Yin-Yang Masters, he couldn't beat them. As everyone knows, one A-rank Yin-Yang Master is equal to six A-ranks…although Shikigami have their strengths and weaknesses, the Shikigami in the hands of these two were clearly not weak.

But just as Old Five was backing away, he heard a clatter of bronze rings behind him. He turned around and saw a Horse-faced Rakshasa over three meters tall standing there, holding a huge nine-ringed knife.

Looking around, Bai Rongyi and Hyakumegami had also returned without anyone knowing, sealing off the airspace of the entire military base. Outside the military base, he could hear the screams of the driver, and there were Shikigami there too.

Old Five was utterly dejected and said bitterly, "Give me a way out."

Shendai Yunluo laughed, "That has to be approved by the little Boss. Don't worry, I'll let you live until you're in front of him, and then let him kill you personally."

…

…

The pursuit continued.

The balance of victory in this war completely tilted with Li Shutong's arrival on the battlefield.

This Demi-God simply waited on the path of the Silver City army, single-handedly encircling them.

The soldiers saw Li Shutong alone on the road, holding two stones in his hands. They said angrily, "That old man, scram…" before they could finish, they were gone.

The giants were pursuing from behind, and Li Shutong was blocking the way ahead. This was simply leaving the soldiers no way out.

However, Li Shutong was happily reaping the battlefield. His eyes inadvertently caught sight of something, and he froze.

His gaze pierced through layers of soldiers, and he clearly saw Qing Chen there…picking his nose with one hand while holding an automatic rifle in the other hand, firing bursts of shots.

Li Shutong was shocked. When did his disciple become like this?!

Huh?

Qing Chen wasn't particularly meticulous before, but the point is, he wasn't this slovenly?!

At this moment, Li Shutong suddenly saw even farther away, six more of himself, each with a heavy machine gun, charging and firing bursts of shots…Li Shutong: "???"

Then, he saw six more Demonslaying Vajrayana, and quickly realized what was going on.

At this time, he suddenly remembered his strange encounter in Forbidden Zone 008, and everything came together.

This must be the work of the Chen Family painters, but the problem is, isn't the Chen Family's painting skill passed down from generation to generation as a divine skill of painting Buddhas and Gods? Who had the time to do this to ruin his reputation?

Li Shutong felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.

The next moment, those Vajrayana, the God Woman, Qing Chen, and Li Shutong, also saw him. More than twenty paintings froze simultaneously, as if time had stopped.

Then, the painted Qing Chen turned around and looked back, using his index finger to count the number of Li Shutongs, counting them one by one: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6…no, let's count again! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6!"!!!

Danger!

Li Shutong frowned and asked through the air: "You are…"

But he saw more than twenty paintings turn and run, not even killing the deserters!

This is called a fake Li Shutong encountering a real Li Shutong. Fakes can't be real, and real can't be fake! It's over!

In the woods, Dayu's cold sweat poured down. Who would have thought that Li Shutong would appear here? Aren't you supposed to be strolling around in the East Continent Federation? Why did you secretly sneak here?!

Give a heads-up!

Li Shutong looked at the backs of the paintings and frowned. He didn't waste any more time. He simply blew the deserters into dust and bones with a gust of air, and turned to chase after the paintings.

The national front battlefield won a great victory.

This was the second great victory of the Giant Dynasty's expedition. All the giants were joyous. Everyone picked up a few guns from the ground, ready to put them at home as souvenirs, or as toys for their little giants.

Giants certainly can't use these things. Their fingers can't even fit into the trigger guard. A normal automatic rifle looks like a toy to them.

Some giants even picked up shells and shell casings from the battlefield. Men just can't resist the appeal of these things, whether they're useful or not, it's fun to hold them.

There were also giants holding the barrel of a main battle tank, dragging it on the ground like leading a donkey, intending to take it back as a souvenir.

It was only when the giant prophet stopped them that the giants gave up the main battle tank, destroyed the tank, and then pulled out the barrel to hold in their hands.

…In the Forbidden Forest, it's not easy to find such straight sticks; they are very handy.

Once upon a time, the giants didn't even dare to walk out of the Forbidden Forest casually. Once they came out, they were very likely to be bombed by fighter jets and airships. Now it's different; they've won every battle.

The giants felt that if they continued to fight like this, they would be able to reach the Fate Weaver's palace soon.

In the woods.

"Your Majesty, you're finally awake. I thought you would never wake up again," the second-in-command said, sitting beside Qing Chen, "We were so worried."

Qing Chen found the title "Your Majesty' rather novel.

The second-in-command continued to chatter: "Your Majesty, this time you have to go back to Black Leaf Plain with us and take care of things there…"

At this time, Dayu hurried back from the battlefield with his head down, as if he was trying to run away.

Qing Chen got up…and was pressed back by Qing Ji.

Qing Ji said, "With your recovery ability, you won't be able to walk for another 48 hours."

Qing Chen shook his head, "No, I have a better way…Dayu, where are you going?"

Dayu said in a panic, "Ah? I'm not going anywhere, I'm going to the toilet. If someone comes later, just say you haven't seen me."

Qing Chen couldn't help but laugh and cry, "Don't worry, let me use the Forbidden Artifact Restorative Shroud."

"Is it important? If it's not important, we can talk about it later." "Very important."

Dayu struggled for a long time, but stayed, "What for?"

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "Please wrap Boss He up. He was hit by Silver Duke, his muscles and internal organs are shattered. I want to see if it can be restored."

His hands could not be restored because they had been refined into bone swords by He Jinqiu, but Qing Chen still wanted to make a final attempt.

After listening, Dayu silently spread the Restorative Shroud on the ground, and Li Tongyun and Black Widow carefully placed He Jinqiu inside.

Black Widow said, "This is a West Continent Forbidden Artifact. I know it, it's called the Restorative Shroud of the Saints, a tribute from Blackwater City to the royal family."

"Tribute?" Qing Chen was puzzled.

"Yeah," Black Widow said, "Sixty-four years ago, the royal family suddenly demanded that the four dukes must pay tribute to a Forbidden Artifact every year. This is one of the tributes from decades ago, which can restore objects. It was originally bestowed by the previous king to the previous seven princesses, and later disappeared."

"I see," Qing Chen only understood one thing: the royal family has many Forbidden Artifacts…just talking about the tributes from the past sixty-four years, there are 256 Forbidden Artifacts!

Qing Chen looked at Black Widow, "Do you know what those Forbidden Artifacts are and who has them?" Black Widow said, "I know some."

"Good."

At this time, Dayu had already wrapped up the Restorative Shroud, and everyone waited for the result after an hour.

At some point, Qing Chen still had hope, after all, Boss He had special cancer cells, which gave him some illusions.

But Qing Ji said beside him, "I know what you're thinking, but even if cancer cells are separated from the human body, they will die immediately unless they are placed in special culture blood or in some animals with low resistance. Once a person is dead, they are dead, it's impossible for the cells to be alive."

Qing Chen didn't speak. Of course he knew this, but he just wanted to try.

While waiting, zard's voice came from afar, "Uncle, come with me, he's right here, I just saw him."

Dayu's face changed!

He lowered his voice and said to Qing Chen, "I'm leaving, don't contact me if nothing happens, I'll leave this idiot zard to you!" Saying that, Dayu turned and ran.

However, he couldn't outrun Li Shutong…

In the blink of an eye, Li Shutong suddenly disappeared from beside zard, and everyone only felt a gust of wind blow by.

When Li Shutong reappeared, he had already grabbed Dayu's ear and was leisurely walking deeper into the woods, "What's your relationship with Qing Chen?"

Dayu roared, "Let go of me! You're not qualified to mention her name! Hey! It hurts! My ear is going to be twisted off!"

Li Shutong wasn't so sentimental. He was really ruthless when dealing with Dayu. Qing Chen and the others were stunned.

The cold and arrogant Dayu was being dragged away by his ear. This was such a rare scene. Qing Chen turned to Qing Ji, "Do you have your phone? Please help me take a picture."

Qing Ji: "I've already taken it."

Li Shutong took Dayu further and further away, until even Qing Chen couldn't hear their voices.

After a brief moment of relaxation, Qing Chen asked, "Is it an hour already?"

Qing Ji said, "Yes."

Qing Chen took a deep breath, "Open it."

Qing Ji gently lifted the Restorative Shroud, but Boss He was still lying quietly inside, no heartbeat, no pulse, no breathing, nothing. Qing Chen was silent for a long time. He suddenly said, "Wrap me up with the Restorative Shroud. My ribs will heal in an hour."

"Okay."

Qing Ji gently hugged Boss He, and then had someone wrap Qing Chen in the Restorative Shroud.

The deep black Restorative Shroud was like a black curtain on a stage, covering the light and brightness, and also covering Qing Chen.

No one could see Qing Chen's expression under the Restorative Shroud.
