Night’s Nomenclature

Chapter 934: Harvest

At 4 a.m., inside the Chen Family Conglomerate manor in City Seven, Dayu and Zard simultaneously opened their eyes in a dimly lit room.

Zard whispered, "They should be asleep now."

"Mm," Dayu got up and calmly replied, "Let's go!"

He was already very tired, but he dared not fall asleep, fearing that the next time he woke up, it wouldn't be him, but Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu was incapable of handling crisis situations:

Previously, when he brought Zard back to the Chen Family, not many people knew that Chen Yu was fighting Qing Chen in Forbidden Zone 001; only his grandfather and mother.

Others only knew that Chen Yu had left City Seven, but didn't know where he had gone.

So when the Black Widow's informant beside Kg learned that the Puppeteer clearly knew the whereabouts of Qing Chen and Chen Yu, Qing Chen's heart sank.

Dayu's grandfather and mother had probably already been made into puppets.

Thinking of this, Dayu's anger burned. But Dayu knew very well that they might have already fallen into a den of thieves and must not act rashly.

They had to leave here first, contact Qing Chen, and then figure out a solution.

The two got up quietly, moving silently towards the outside. However, as soon as they opened the door, laughter came from the dark corridor: "I'm curious, how did you find out? Did something go wrong on Kg's side?"

Dayu turned abruptly, only to see more than ten people already standing in the corridor, all looking at them with the same strange smiles.

The Chen Family head, the butler, and many master painters had all become puppets, and Dayu's mother was being held hostage, speechless.

Zard turned to Dayu, "What do we do?"

At this time, a young painter said with a smile, "I generally don't like making elderly people into puppets, because the process of making puppets is quite complicated, and the time cycle is also very long, so making elderly people into puppets is not cost-effective. But this one is different, his status is relatively special, and the cost-effectiveness is very high. Especially now, Qing Chen has actually helped me eliminate his biggest obstacle within the Chen Family."

As he spoke, another young painter also said with a smile, "I know Qing Chen has been promoted to Demi-God, and I believe in his magic, so there's no way Chen Yu could have walked out of Forbidden Zone 001 alive. The Chen Family is the first Conglomerate I control. Perhaps, there will be another one soon."

Dayu: "F*ck you."

The young painter laughed, "You've also been to the underground base, you should know very well that I don't have a mother, and I can't understand the meaning of you cursing like this."

Dayu looked at his mother, Chen Ningzhi. He couldn't determine if his mother had also been made into a puppet.

Logically, the entire manor had already been controlled by the Puppeteer. His mother had lived here for many years and couldn't possibly have escaped.

If his grandfather and mother had already become puppets and things were beyond saving, then what he should do was fight his way out.

The young painter laughed, "I know what you're thinking, but do you dare to bet?"

Dayu looked at his mother, "Mom, are you alright?"

Chen Ningzhi calmly said, "Xiaoyu, don't be indecisive. I'm done for. You go."

But the more Chen Ningzhi said this, the more Dayu's heart felt like it was being tightly grasped.

He looked at the young painter, "What do you want?"

The young painter said with a smile, "I want you to cooperate with me and lure Qing Chen here. Your grandfather is beyond saving, but your mother is not yet a puppet. You just need to summon Qing Chen, and I'll return your mother to you."

Dayu frowned. Now that Chen Yu was gone, the Puppeteer had already seized control of the Chen Family. The Chen Yu faction was now leaderless and couldn't compete with the head family at all.

Even if Qing Chen had been promoted to Demi-God, he couldn't possibly directly lead the Qing Family to war with the Chen Family at this time. If he was really tricked, he might die in the south.

On one side was Qing Chen, on the other side was his mother.

Chen Ningzhi said, "Xiaoyu, don't betray your friend."

Zard suddenly said from the side, "Calling my Boss here for what? Everyone else avoids him, I've never seen you so brave."

The young painter fell silent, he thought for a long time before replying, "Qing Chen is just an ordinary person, he is not omnipotent."

Zard: "You're going to die!"

The young painter burst into laughter, "Please, the two of you, stay in the manor's secret prison for a while. I think you might figure out what to do there."

Dayu suddenly said, "You don't actually want Qing Chen, you just want to keep us here, and turn us into your puppets."

At this time, the Gene Soldiers beside Chen Ningzhi exerted a little force, and a thin line of blood was cut across Chen Ningzhi's neck.

Dayu originally wanted to fight his way out, but ultimately gave up, "Zard, you go, I'll stay. Tell Qing Chen what happened here."

Zard shook his head, "I still want to see how Boss kills this thing. I'm not going."

"You get the hell out of here!"

"You're not my Boss, why should I listen to you?"

Dayu: ".."

The two were escorted to the dungeon together, which was made entirely of alloy. Zard wouldn't be able to escape with his awakened abilities.

On the way, Zard mumbled, "I wonder what Boss is doing."

At this time, Qing Chen was sorting through his spoils of war.

First, the biggest trophy of this battle was Chen Yu.

He estimated that it was the first time the Marionette had controlled a Demi-God since its creation. As a result, after the silk threads wrapped around Chen Yu's wrist, the Marionette had fallen into a state of complete excitement, and several silk threads danced back and forth like the tentacles of an octopus.

Those tentacles swayed around Qing Chen, attentive like a dog, almost bowing and scraping to Qing Chen.

Probably no previous owner had ever seen the Marionette in this state.

Qing Chen took out rice paper and a brush from the satchel on the back of the green ox, and controlled Chen Yu to quickly paint a picture, then tore it up.

But nothing happened.

Chen Family painters' painting is a very complex process, it's not something Qing Chen could paint whatever he wanted.

He controlled Chen Yu to take off all his clothes and stand naked in the maze.

"Left arm, right arm, left thigh, right thigh, left chest, right chest," Qing Chen sighed, "Not even a single tattoo. He checked the satchel on the green ox's back again, confirming that the other party had destroyed all the paintings, and then muttered in annoyance.

He checked the satchel on the green ox's back again, confirming that the other party had destroyed all the paintings, and then muttered in annoyance.

He had painstakingly plotted with Chen Yu for several days, paddling around in a kayak and performing magic tricks for Chen Yu, and in the end, he only got an empty shell.

Qing Chen mumbled, "What's the use of a Chen Family painter without paintings? At most, his physical fitness is better than that of an A-Class Gene Soldier, but his fighting ability is greatly reduced; he's not as good as my Shadow."

You know, puppets controlled by the Marionette can still maintain their own thoughts. After Chen Yu lost control of his body, he was enraged to the point of hearing this, but he could do nothing.

Not only that, in addition to Qing Chen's constant nagging, there were also more than 200 fathers around him constantly scolding him for being stupid!

The key is that this time, he couldn't even retort.

He could only take the scolding!

Chen Yu's mental pollution worsened.

Qing Chen suddenly had an idea, his eyes lit up, and he quickly left the maze and came to the place where Chen Yu had previously torn up the paintings: Chen Yu had been in this amusement park, tearing up four paintings of Flying God Woman, two paintings of Subduing Demon Vajra, the fragments should still be scattered on the ground.

Dayu's paintings could be restored with the Restorative Shroud,

Chen Yu's could too!

With six Demi-God paintings refreshing once an hour, Qing Chen could take Chen Yu to collapse Storm City.

Coming outside the maze, he saw that some fragments were still intact, but some had been soaked in aqua regia.

He used Chen Yu's coat to spread on the ground, carefully picking up the intact fragments, not willing to let go of even a little bit of the edges, the number of paintings that could be restored depended entirely on luck.

Secondly, the secondary spoils of war were Chen Yu's pair of eyeballs; Bai Bai Mugui kept calling him "master" and helped him sink so many Fighter Jets; such good things must be given to the right person.

Bai Bai Mugui originally lacked 7 pairs of eyeballs; her request to Qing Chen was that she hoped each subsequent pair would be A-Class, but she certainly didn't expect Qing Chen to be able to find her another pair of Demi-God eyeballs.

Each pair of Demi-God eyeballs could greatly increase Bai Bai Mugui's strength; previously it was cutting in front of one kilometer; perhaps after getting Chen Yu's eyeballs, it could cut two or three kilometers.

This is also one of the most important top combat forces on Qing Chen's side, making up for their air combat capabilities.

Then there are the Forbidden Artifacts.

Qing Chen found three Forbidden Artifacts on Chen Yu's body: a small jade green ox pendant, a jade finger ring on Chen Yu's thumb, and a green bamboo branch "Chest full of confidence'.

The first one was definitely taken by Qing Chen himself; this green ox directly made up for the Knight's lack of flight ability; being a Demi-God, not being able to fly is a bit unreasonable.

The second finger ring is a defensive barrier used to prevent people from getting close; it's not very useful for Qing Chen, it's better to give it to Yang Yang.

The third one is used to enhance memory, which can make the Chen Family painters twice the result with half the effort; this kind of thing must be given to Yang Yang.

What does it matter if Yang Yang isn't a Chen Family painter?

Of course, Qing Chen was just thinking; in the end, it still had to be left to Dayu.

Finally, the greatest gain was Chen Yu's identity.

The Chen Yu faction was deeply rooted in the Chen Family, firmly suppressing the Chen Family head's faction; two Chen Family air force units and four main army corps; these were all forces that could be used to fight against Roosevelt Continent in the future.

Chen Yu is now Qing Chen's tiger talisman; with Chen Yu, he can command those people to smoothly transfer power to Dayu.

He just didn't know how Dayu and Zard were doing now, whether they had escaped danger.

However, at this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from the maze. Qing Chen was stunned, and someone else came in.
