Night’s Nomenclature

Chapter 908: Redefining Blitzkrieg

The moment Shendai Yunluo got out of the car, the experts nearby, clad in grass-camouflage suits, all stood up and silently gathered around.

Yunxiu looked around. These people were the elite young generation of the Ittō-ryū lineage, who should have died in espionage and small-scale warfare operations.

And now, they were all standing here, alive!

"Why?" Yunxiu questioned, "Since when?"

"Thirteen years ago, when I was still in the army, everyone felt that even if we cultivated, we would one day be possessed by the old fellows. Even if they didn't possess you, they would threaten you and make you die in an "accident." So, we started planning our faked deaths from that time. It's better to die on our own terms than to be killed by others," Shendai Yunluo said with a smile.

Thirteen years, 471 experts. This was a ghost army.

They lived in the deep mountains, eating wild animals, living a life neither human nor ghost, barely surviving in this desolate wilderness.

Shendai Yunluo thought for a moment and said, "I was actually a little tired of it and wanted to leave. These ghosts tried to contact me, but I didn't respond. Until Qing Chen told me that the war about to erupt in this world is unavoidable. I think he's right."

He continued, "So, I'm back."

The ghost army looked at him quietly. They didn't seem to mind that Shendai Yunluo had abandoned them. As long as Shendai Yunluo returned, they were still there. Kongyu whispered to the side, "Why didn't Yunxiu and I know about this?"

Shendai Yunluo pondered, "Of course, the fewer people who know about this, the better. We can't reveal anything until it's done."

Yunxiu sighed inwardly. Perhaps many people underestimated this young master's scheming. Such a big event, even his childhood sweetheart, Shendai Kongyu, was kept in the dark. How much self-control did he have?

Only, Kongyu was a little disappointed.

Even when she saw Shendai Yunluo sitting among women, she had never felt this way.

Shendai Yunluo didn't care. The Casanova never explained anything to anyone. He smiled at the ghost army, "Let's go, you should return to the human world. Now that Hyakumegami is complete, let's call our old friends and celebrate at the Heart Realm Dojo!"

He sat back in the car, and the ghost army lifted the green canvas not far away, revealing the vehicles inside. This time, however, Kongyu didn't drive for Shendai Yunluo, instead turning to another car. Shendai Yunluo was dumbfounded, "Hey? Where are you going! Hey!"

Yunxiu chuckled, "I'll drive."

"Ah, women," Shendai Yunluo sighed, "She was so cute when she was little."

At this moment, Kongyu sat calmly in the car behind, Mutou Taka looking at her in the rearview mirror, "We once suggested that you join the ghost army, because some old women also coveted your body, and in the city, Shendai Yunxiu could act with him."

"Then what?" Kongyu asked.

Mutou Taka smiled, "He said that girls should wear pretty dresses and walk on bustling streets. How could they mix with us, these wild ghosts, and become neither male nor female warriors. Later, he spent three years killing those four old monsters who wanted to possess you."

Takahashi Ryosuke said calmly, "We are all going to die, but you and Yunxiu are different. The day the real plan begins will be a day when you are far from Shendai, perhaps sunny, perhaps cloudy. We may die in battle, or we may not, but you and Yunxiu will definitely not die."

Kongyu was stunned. She opened the car door and jumped out, walking to Shendai Yunluo's car and saying to Yunxiu, "I'll drive, he gets carsick easily."

Yunxiu raised his eyebrows and silently moved to the passenger seat.

Shendai Yunluo pouted, "Little girl's temper, now sunny, now rainy. What, not angry anymore? If you have the guts, don't come over! Just let me die of carsickness in Yunxiu's car!"

Yunxiu: ... Kongyu ignored him, "Where to?"

"Oh, let me die in this car!" Shendai Yunluo cried out dramatically. "Where to?!"

"Ahem," Shendai Yunluo straightened up and said seriously, "It's a waste of time to go anywhere else. Let's start with City 2."

At this moment, Yunxiu asked, "Yunluo, you had already decided to be a recluse, why did you suddenly come back?"

Shendai Yunluo said, "Shendai has an Air Fortress." Yunxiu was stunned, "Huh?

Shendai Yunluo lazily said, "The Boss said that there are four Air Fortresses in the West Continent, and we only have two, including the Li Clan, and our technology is behind theirs, and our speed is slower. How are we going to fight? Then, he told me to get Shendai's Air Fortress too. I said, Shendai's Air Fortress... before I could finish my sentence, he said, "What Shendai's Fortress, it's our Fortress.""

These words plunged Shendai Yunxiu into deep thought...

This Boss's way of thinking seemed quite different from others.

Moreover, he suddenly realized that this Qing Chen Boss wanted to somehow turn the hostile forces in the East Continent into his own forces. Zard and Dayu were doing the same, but the Chen Family still had a Demi-God, Chen Yu, to hold them back, so they couldn't move for now.

But Shendai's Demi-God was already gone!

At this time, they were gradually seeing the outline of City 20.

"How do we get in?" Kongyu looked at the city defense system nervously, her hands sweating as she gripped the steering wheel. "We only have so few people, we can't break through, right?"

Shendai Yunluo thought for a moment and said, "The Boss said to just drive in."

"Huh?" Kongyu was stunned for several seconds, "That can't be right, the three of us are wanted criminals, and behind us are ghost troops who have been purged from the records. How can we just drive in?"

Yunxiu added beside him, "We'll be shredded by Metal Storm."

"I'm not too sure either," Shendai Yunluo hesitated, "But let's try it."

Kongyu was stunned, "Try it? If it doesn't work, we'll die at the border gate. Even Hyakumegami can't withstand more than 30 Metal Storms."

At this time, Mutou Taka and Takahashi Ryosuke in the vehicles behind also opened the car communication system and asked, "Wait, we're just going to charge in like this? I thought there would be a better plan! Don't we first infiltrate through the sewers, then quietly infiltrate, take advantage of the night to control those few powerful old men?"

Shendai Yunluo thought for a moment, "That's too much trouble."

"Huh?" Mutou Taka was deeply puzzled, "But we'll die if we go in like this." Then, Shendai Yunluo made a call, "Hello, Boss, we're at the gate." On the phone, Qing Chen said, "I know, go in."

The call ended.

Kongyu was dumbfounded, "What now?" "Whatever the Boss says, we do."

However, as they drove cautiously into the gate, they found that the border management bureau here was already a river of blood. The great demon Qing Ji stood beside the road, quietly watching them drive past.

There were screams in the distance. The Shadow troops had infiltrated without them knowing and had directly broken through the city's defense system!

The city defense system, which should have identified Shendai Yunluo's identity, remained motionless, completely silent.

"Praise the Boss!" Shendai Yunluo waved to Qing Ji with a smile, "Uncle Qing Ji, thank you! I'll forget about you taking my drunk photos the other day!"

Qing Ji nodded. His face was still stained with blood, looking exceptionally cold and different from the great demon Qing Ji who liked to collect people's embarrassing moments.

Kongyu gripped the steering wheel, "We just came in like that? The city defense system was too easy to break."

Takahashi Ryosuke also murmured in the vehicle behind, "We just came in like this? If I'm not mistaken, that was Qing Ji of the Qing Family! The Qing Family attacked, and Shendai didn't react at all?"

Shendai Yunluo smiled, "You've been in the mountains for too long, so I'll take you out to see the world. Everyone, times have changed!"

It wasn't that Shendai was too weak, but they still hadn't fully adapted to the new way of warfare.

With the Key Gate in Qing Chen's hands, war was like suddenly transitioning from the 2G era to the 5G era.

In the 2G era of war, everyone still fought positional warfare, steadily advancing troops, considering supply lines, and logistics. The blitzkrieg of that era was only about advancing 300 kilometers a day.

It's like you're still struggling to brush up a picture, while other people's live streaming industry has already taken off.

For Qing Chen's troops now, they had redefined blitzkrieg.

True blitzkrieg is that one hour ago, everyone was thousands of kilometers away, eating hot pot and singing songs, and the next second, everyone wipes their mouths and kills you at your doorstep.

This efficiency could be called a subversive revolution.

However, throughout human history, people have always been slow to realize the arrival of such revolutions. Just like after firearms became widely used, the Qing Dynasty troops were still riding horses trying to charge into gun emplacements. At that time, the Qing soldiers looked at the iron steamships at the harbor and were stunned.

Now it's Qing Chen's turn to lead the era of change, and those old city defense systems haven't figured out how to deal with this kind of direct attack on the control center.

In the city, the Garrison Troops couldn't react in time.

Shendai Yunluo sat leisurely in the car, smiling at Mutou Taka and the others, "Slowly experience the magic of this battle. It will subvert your worldviews. This is our new Boss!"

However, even with this war efficiency, they still couldn't beat the Roosevelt Kingdom, which was Qing Chen's biggest concern.

Before, they could hide in the Blackleaf Royal Court to avoid the curse of black magic.

But when the Roosevelt Kingdom's fleet arrived in the East Continent, would they still hide in the Blackleaf Royal Court? When 100,000 levels of black magic descend, they could kill 100,000 elite Guardians' Union members from 12 kilometers away.

What then?

At this time, the Garrison Troops' armored vehicles were approaching from the end of the long street. Mutou Taka shouted in the communication channel, "Boss, we can't go head-to-head with the Garrison Troops' mechanized troops. We'll abandon our vehicles and escape now. We've infiltrated, and those old guys' troops can't support us in time. We'll directly kill their officials; once they're dead, the battle will be over."

Shendai Yunluo rested his elbow on the car window and summoned the Hyakumegami, intending to directly crush them with the Ten Directions World.

However, before he could do anything, he saw a huge floor-to-ceiling window on the 7th floor of the skyscraper where the Garrison Troops passed being smashed.

The next moment, a giant fell heavily beside the armored vehicle, lifting the armored vehicle and starting to ram it.

Moreover, more and more giants jumped from the windows. They seemed to have calculated that the Garrison Troops would pass by here to support the border gate, so they had been ambushing here early.
