Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 848: The Corpse’s Mood Is Very Stable
What happens to my merits?" Marquis Barton muttered, "But if I'm going to die, what use do I have for merits?"
Qing Chen was stunned. You're so right. The problem is, if you run away, who will I use as a puppet here? Who will listen to me?
At this time, he also had some understanding of Marquis Barton: he had no intention of harming others, he just wanted to enjoy his life and keep his wife. Although he also had some ambition, he was very self-aware and didn't really take his ambition seriously.
Self-awareness is a good thing; it's just that it feels like mud that can't be supported by a wall. But right now, Qing Chen's job wasn't to make the Marquis energetic again; he just needed to use an iron plate to nail this mud to the wall so it couldn't run away.
Qing Chen felt that he might have scared the Marquis just now, so he lowered his voice and said to Marquis Barton, "I just feel something is wrong; maybe my feeling is wrong? I'm just reporting to you! Listen outside; nothing is wrong."
Marquis Barton patted his chest, "I saw how carefully you deployed the Airships earlier, and then you said something so scary. I thought the outpost was going to be gone today."
Qing Chen smiled and said, "Marquis, please continue playing your Virtual Realm. I'll take care of everything. Don't worry."
"Okay," Marquis Barton was very easy to coax; he really put on his virtual glasses and continued playing the game.
The next moment, Qing Chen's expression turned serious.
He really had a premonition that something was wrong; he didn't know who was coming, but he knew that something dangerous would happen: from 4 minutes ago, the time he received and sent the coordination document had a problem.
The coordination document has a fixed process, that is, the outpost sends a letter to Storm City. After the system there receives it, it will automatically return a "received confirmation" letter. The military system is very strict. Without this return letter, it means that the information has been intercepted.
Qing Chen had just finished the transfer and sent a transfer document to Storm City, such as the transfer of a certain unit from the Storm Duke's main force to another unit.
At this time, the return letter from Storm City was 0.7 seconds slower than usual. 0.7 seconds seems very short, but for Qing Chen, anything unusual is worth noting, and the victory of the war is precisely accumulated by this kind of keen insight.
The outpost uses military optical cables, and Storm City automatically replies. Why is it 0.7 seconds slower?
If it were someone else, they might not notice it, but Qing Chen wouldn't.
So there is only one possibility: his communication has already been intercepted. On the way to Storm City, the transfer letter passed through an information base station that wasn't there before, which is why it was 0.7 seconds slower!
Why is this happening? Because someone wants to intercept the outpost's distress signal!
Qing Chen walked to the window, overlooking the outside of the base through the cracks in the curtains; the distant Forbidden Forest was dark.
He looked into the distance and felt an unusual heaviness there. Usually, even in the Forbidden Forest, birds would occasionally fly out from the treetops, but he had been watching for two minutes without seeing a single bird.
Among the giants, every giant has special racial talents. This is the information he got from Dingdong and Gudong. The giants of this West Continent should also have them.
Qing Chen walked to his desk and picked up the internal phone. Using Marquis Barton's voice, he said, "James, re-check Metal Storm and reply to me once you're sure there's no problem." After saying that, he returned to the window and coldly watched everything.
Qing Chen could issue a level 1 alert in Marquis Barton's name, and even order all the A-Class Airships to take off now, but he didn't issue an early warning.
First, mobilizing all the Airships would inevitably attract investigation. Qing Chen couldn't explain his findings to others; excessive sensitivity would arouse the vigilance of many people, such as the five Princesses.
Second, the struggle between Roosevelt Kingdom, Rebellion, and Giant Dynasty wasn't about the fewer casualties the better? It's okay to escape with Marquis Barton.
But Qing Chen knew that things wouldn't come to that.
In the dark Forbidden Forest, hundreds of huge dark green figures silently walked barefoot.
Their bare, huge feet stepped on the soft soil and fallen leaves, making very, very small sounds. At this time, Kuangfeng silently gestured, and soon a giant with the talent of eagle eyes climbed a big tree, his head emerging from the tree crown, carefully observing the outpost in the distance.
He lowered his head and said, "Dudu."
There are groups of drones intercepting, but it's not certain whether these drone groups have relaxed their vigilance as that human boy said. Kuangfeng: "Feng!" What about the outpost? "Dudu!"
The outpost was very quiet; there were no Airships on alert in the sky, and no Air Fortress!
This is also one of the talents of the giants. They grow in this forest; they only need to make one or two syllables to let their companions understand their meaning.
Each giant makes slightly different syllables, and their names are mostly named after syllables. Only commanders like Kuangfeng will be given names and surnames like "Kuangfeng" by the giant king, and then they will be distinguished by their surnames, becoming clans in the giant race.
The Lei family is a prominent family among the giants.
In the dark Forbidden Forest, Kuangfeng looked at another giant. The other giant listened to the ground for a moment: "Gege!" There was no sound of human conspiracy, no breathing sounds in ambush, everything was normal.
Kuangfeng nodded. He looked down at the defense map given by the young man in the darkness. It recorded the location of all the Metal Storms and the number of Metal Storm ammunition.
It even marked the locations of all the A-Class and B-Class Airships.
Very detailed, and some of the flying airships only arrived at the outpost yesterday.
Kuangfeng pondered for a moment. He waved his hand gently, and the giants ran wildly: "Feng!" Kill, none left! At this moment, eight giants' eyes turned blood-red; behind them were densely packed flocks of birds, quietly on the ground.
As their eyes changed, the eyes of the birds also turned blood-red.
They defecated to reduce their weight and then lowered their flight altitude, quickly shuttling through the trees and gradually exceeding Kuangfeng's speed.
They were like bullets flying in the forest.
The moment the bird flock reached the drone flock, they suddenly rose, like flying fish leaping from the sea, piercing the tree crown like leaping from the sea.
The dense flock of birds took only one second to engulf, dismember, and destroy the drone flock!
What made Kuangfeng feel something was wrong was that in the first 7 seconds, the drones obviously had no defense, so they were destroyed. But in the next 3 seconds, a small portion of the remaining drones immediately activated their self-destruct program, killing a quarter of the bird flock!
Although there were still enough birds left, this response speed was different from what the human boy said; the response was too fast.
However, Kuangfeng didn't think the young man had lied. Among the giants, there are rare beings with telepathic talents. If the young man had lied, he would have been exposed long ago.
In fact, Kuangfeng and his men had also investigated outpost 9; they had long known that this was the breakthrough.
Even the location of the Airship's docking was consistent with what they had investigated yesterday.
Otherwise, how could Kuangfeng attack an outpost based on a single word from a human? But where did it go wrong?
However, the arrow was on the string, and it had to be fired.
The Giant Dynasty had never invaded the outpost before. Kuangfeng, as a small commander, made such a decision. Whether it succeeds or fails, it will certainly arouse the vigilance of Roosevelt Kingdom.
If they can't take it this time, they won't be able to take it in the future.
After the drones were destroyed, Kuangfeng roared: "Feng!" Kill! Those bird flocks flew over the vast Forbidden Forest, straight towards the outpost. On both sides of them, groups of wild boars rushed out, like rolling tanks.
The Metal Storms in the outpost responded instantly; the birds were shot down in the sky, falling to the ground in large numbers.
The bullets of Metal Storm were like red curtains, constantly intertwining in the night.
The flock of birds was like a cloud, gradually dissipating.
Just as the flock of birds was about to be wiped out, a Metal Storm on the city wall stopped.
It wasn't that it malfunctioned; it was that it ran out of bullets!
Kuangfeng used the characteristic that Metal Storm automatically targeted even birds to automatically use up the ammunition in the Metal Storm's magazine with the bird flock alone!
The wild boars were running wildly; they rushed towards the wall without fear of death, even if they died outside the wall, they were not afraid.
The wild boars in the Forbidden Forest after the mutation were extremely ferocious, and they could even jump onto the wall to attack the Metal Storm's base, while the giants led by Kuangfeng took advantage of the moment when the Metal Storm stopped to kill into the outpost on the backs of the wild boars! "Feng!"
First, deal with all the military Airships marked on the map and don't let them have a chance to take off! However, Kuangfeng quickly noticed something unusual, because the position where A-Class Airships should have been parked had become a small civilian Airship!
Moreover, the outermost part of the outpost was neatly parked with civilian Airships.
This is completely different from the chaotic situation they had investigated yesterday.
There was no human playing around, no queuing up at the human force pool, no human holding bonfires in the outpost; there was a scene of killing, as if waiting for the giants' arrival.
Kuangfeng was puzzled. Why is the entire No. 9 outpost completely different from just one day ago?!
No, to be precise, only 13 hours have passed! Everything is completely different!
Why?!
When the giants were fighting inside, Kuangfeng clearly saw human soldiers panicking. This wasn't a prepared look; the other party didn't know in advance that they would come!
Kuangfeng angrily grabbed the soldier and tore him in half with his bare hands!
The next moment, Kuangfeng suddenly felt something and saw a figure in the window of the office building in the distance calmly looking at him.
Most of the figure's face was behind the curtains, and a small part was seen through the crack in the curtain, staring at him.
That look was calm and composed, as if everything was under control.
This human has a problem. Kuangfeng felt uneasy; he continued to kill inside, but he saw cracks appearing under the ground, spreading from where Kuangfeng rushed into the outpost.
Under his feet, there were other giants hiding, with special racial talents. The earth began to crack, and the Airships tilted in the places where it passed. Fortunately, the cracks were not wide, otherwise the civilian Airships would fall directly into the cracks.
The wild boars behind began to ram; they didn't follow Kuangfeng but attacked all the base facilities and civilian Airships indiscriminately.
Kuangfeng was quickly infiltrating the center of the outpost. He suddenly remembered something and looked up again, only to find that the human at the window was gone.
At this moment, 22 A-Class Airships in the center of the base took off at the same time.
Kuangfeng calculated the time; there was still time! "Feng!" Help me! He saw two giants suddenly accelerate and kneel on the ground, using their hands as bridges. During the running, Kuangfeng stepped on the hands of the giant companions in front of him and gave a strong push.
The giant companion gritted his teeth and threw him out, and Kuangfeng used this force to fly towards the A-Class Airship that was slowly rising like a cannonball.
With a bang, when he contacted the Airship, he tore off the engine on the left side of the airship with his bare hands. The Airship slowly tilted to the left and collided with another Airship, falling together!
This Kuangfeng was taller than other giants, about four meters tall, like Dingdong and Gudong, and his explosive power was like having a nuclear fission device on his body!
Like the vigorous vitality of the sun!
However, this was not over yet. The flames burning from the explosion of the Airship engulfed Kuangfeng, but he seemed to have a black hole in his body, absorbing all the flames into himself at a visible speed, and then flame patterns appeared all over his body.
Even the dark green camouflage could not hide it.
Kuangfeng stood on the Airship that was still falling, and a flame spear slowly materialized in his hand. He slowly aimed at the other two Airships in the sky and threw it hard!
The flame was as long as a comet, tearing through the black night sky, drawing long red lines, and piercing through two A-Class Airships in one go.
Qing Chen silently watched this scene and immediately recalled the shocking scene when Gudong punched the giant bear. The racial talents of the giants are too ferocious. No wonder they dare to challenge the border of Roosevelt Kingdom!
What's the difference between this and human A-Class Awakened Ones? There is no difference. Giants also have physiques far exceeding human A-Class masters! If they are both A-Class, humans would be beaten up by giants. Fortunately, not all giants are as strong as this one.
However, the giant who has the ability to open cracks and has been protecting Kuangfeng underground should be the same strength.
Qing Chen felt nothing about these giants; these giants are different from Dingdong and Gudong, who were taught by Knights, and he has no friendship with them.
Therefore, when he observes them, he is not emotional at all, completely objective. At this time, 14 of the 22 A-Class Airships managed to take off in the chaos and escaped danger.
There are more B-Class Airships.
These Airships slowly turned and released their drone swarms, starting to target the giants who had just landed on the ground.
Kuangfeng miscalculated after all. The cracks on the ground did destroy many Airships, but he wasn't well-prepared and encountered too many unexpected events.
Destroying 8 A-Class Airships, 49 B-Class Airships, and hundreds of civilian Airships is their limit.
In fact, if Qing Chen hadn't intentionally delayed the order for one minute, he might not have been able to destroy even one. After all, Qing Chen's main target is Roosevelt Kingdom. If he waited any later, he would be investigated, and he wished Kuangfeng could destroy all the Airships.
Such a wild and powerful teammate, where can you find one on weekdays?
The moment the Airships in the sky opened fire, dozens of giants on the ground were injured. Under the ground, layers of sand and soil walls appeared, protecting Kuangfeng and others from missiles and bullets.
Someone shouted from the crack: "Steady!" I can't hold on for too long! Kuangfeng's eyes were full of unwillingness, but reason still prevailed over impulse: "Feng!" Retreat! Take away your companions, don't leave the wounded to the humans! After saying that, he took the lead in carrying two injured companions and jumped into the crack in the ground, disappearing into the darkness of the abyss. Other giants followed suit, carrying their companions and jumping in; that was their last resort, and they had the final say in whether to fight or run.
At this moment, Qing Chen quietly said in the Marquis' office, "Prevent them from getting close to the injured giants; I want them alive."
The barrage of bullets formed a net, completely smashing the layers of sand walls, completely suppressing the giants under the ground cracks. In desperation, the giants had no choice but to retreat, leaving six companions. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Qing Chen gave another order, "Use tranquilizer darts. Anyone who accidentally kills a giant will be buried with them."
Anyway, neither side is his own person; Qing Chen doesn't feel sorry for them at all.
This battle came quickly and ended quickly. If Qing Chen hadn't shown mercy within a controllable range, Kuangfeng and his men might have half of them die here.
It's a pity that he couldn't gain the friendship of the giants because of this. However, he could gain the friendship of Marquis Barton.
After all, without him, Marquis Barton would certainly be a corpse now.
Qing Chen looked back at Marquis Barton, who was still immersed in the Virtual Realm, "Yes, the corpse's mood is very stable."
