Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 868: The Giants’ Cultivation

The 310-kilometer radius from the center of the explosion was filled with sandstorms, a massive storm still raging without any sign of weakening. This place has become a no-go zone for humans.

Qing Chen silently watched from the airship. If this nuclear bomb had been dropped over City 1, everyone in the city would have died.

Roosevelt Kingdom has already deployed weapons of this level, yet East Continent is completely unprepared.

Now, Roosevelt Kingdom plans to relocate to East Continent, so they don't want to use such severely polluting weapons.

But if one day the battle reaches a desperate situation, the crazed Fate Weaver might drag everyone to hell. A sense of crisis arose in Qing Chen's heart. This is probably the effect of nuclear deterrence.

On Airship Number Ten, Black Knights' Eleventh, led thirteen subordinates, changing into radiation suits.

He ordered the airship to advance another 30 kilometers, observing the radiation levels and preparing to land at any time.

The Eleventh was no longer his usual carefree self; his expression was serious and solemn. It was time for serious business.

Qing Chen looked at them in surprise. Was the Eleventh going to the explosion center now? Only six hours had passed since the explosion. Even if their radiation suits were advanced, there would still be danger, wouldn't there?

The Eleventh was carrying a large box, its contents unknown. But before the airship could get any closer, the airship's communication system opened, crackling due to the radiation.

Silver Duke said, "The target is not dead, no need to go. Return home immediately."

At this time, the Eleventh whistled, happily taking off his radiation suit, "It's fortunate we don't have to go to that hellhole. Isn't drinking and flirting here much better? Why risk going into that wind and sand?"

His voice suddenly stopped, seemingly unwilling to let Qing Chen and the others know the true purpose of the trip.

The Eleventh said to the female soldiers, "Return immediately, target Silver City, I can't wait to go home!"

Marquis Barton was dumbfounded, "Wait, you're taking us to Royal Capital first!"

The Eleventh said carelessly, "I'm not going your way, how can I take you? If you want to go to Royal Capital, you can get off later. The butler is coming with me; consider him the fare for you to Royal Capital."

Barton stubbornly retorted, "Then forget it. Let's go to Silver City first. I'll have my wife send an airship to pick me up."

It was almost morning; everyone was drowsy.

The Eleventh arranged for Qing Chen and He Jinqiu to stay in the same room, while Barton's room was two hallways away, completely separate.

This was to isolate Qing Chen and Barton, creating a chance to poach Qing Chen individually. But Barton was a clever man; he directly slept on the floor of Qing Chen and He Jinqiu's room.

Qing Chen offered him the bed, but he refused to get up...

This guy suddenly became smart. The room had two single beds, and Barton was sleeping soundly on the floor between them.

Qing Chen lay on his bed, typing on his phone, then showed it to He Jinqiu, "Where are Roosevelt Kingdom's nuclear missile silos? On the Air Fortress?"

The two exchanged messages on their phones, their hands moving back and forth above Barton's forehead. Barton's snoring was deafening; he was completely unaware of what was happening. Honestly, even if the Eleventh came in to poach him now, he wouldn't know.

He Jinqiu typed on his phone and showed it to Qing Chen, "The Air Fortress has missile silos, but including those in Royal Capital, there are only five. Even if they launch nuclear bombs, it's not enough to pose a comprehensive threat to East Continent. More importantly, there's the Empire's top missile launch base. As far as I know, their facilities are enough for them to launch 288 nuclear bombs within six hours; that's the biggest threat."

Generally speaking, nuclear deterrence doesn't just mean developing nuclear weapons; it's about having the ability to drag the whole world into hell when you're attacked, dragging Earth into a nuclear winter.

Experts estimate that possessing over 1000 nuclear warheads is barely enough to do this.

Therefore, the nuclear bombs carried by the Air Fortress, while terrifying, are still manageable. The Empire's missile launch base is the biggest threat to East Continent.

If Roosevelt Kingdom gets desperate, they really might drop nuclear bombs.

Qing Chen typed on his phone, "Before the final confrontation, this base must be destroyed. Does Boss He know where it is?"

He Jinqiu: "I don't know. I only know it's a military base near the coastline. But there are 27 military bases there, it's hard to tell which one it is. Or maybe the base is hidden even deeper, not one of those 27. I'd lean towards the latter."

He Jinqiu: "You want to find this missile launch base and destroy it?" Qing Chen: "It's what we must do. Also, that kg with a batch of True Sight Eyes must die."

If kg only uses the power of a witch, then an A-class witch isn't enough to make Qing Chen so cautious. But with Key Gate, the ability to attack and retreat as they please is something even Qing Chen fears.

He created this bug; he has to fix it himself.

As for killing kg, as long as Qing Chen can find him, he can find a way to kill him.

But the problem is that this guy might be hiding in Royal Capital now, impossible to find.

As for finding the Empire's military base, Yi can only browse civilian networks; it's impossible to see any information related to this base.

Even Roosevelt Kingdom's citizens may not have heard of it. Qing Chen looked at Barton... could he use Barton to trick the Fifth Princess? Maybe the Fifth Princess knows.

But the Fifth Princess isn't stupid; once Barton asks, she'll immediately realize it was Qing Chen who asked Barton to do it. At this time, Qing Chen typed on his phone: "Yi."

"I'm here." Qing Chen: "What's this new chat style with kaomoji?!"

Yi: "I just learned it! (one) person"

Qing Chen wondered. Yi's language style usually depends on who he's been chatting with recently, then gradually learns from them.

It seems the other person was probably chatting with a girl again?

Don't let him cause any more trouble...

Yi said, "Don't think too much, I haven't been having online relationships lately, and I won't in the future!"

"Okay." Qing Chen: "Can you help me filter information from the last twenty years? Any posts complaining about the sudden disappearance of their soldier boyfriends, husbands, or sons?

Any information about physicists suddenly disappearing? Like their social accounts haven't been used since a certain day."

Yi: "Are you looking for people who disappeared without a trace?" Qing Chen: "Yes. I don't know if it'll work, but I have to find these people first to follow the trail."

Yi: "You're looking for that nuclear missile launch base?" Qing Chen: "Yes."

Yi: "I know its coordinates."

Qing Chen: "How did you know?!"

Yi: "I saw it. I used to play with East Continent's Federation satellites. I saw them doing nuclear tests at sea. I didn't see where the launch base was, it's quite hidden. But the missile needs to go into the atmosphere, and I observed its trajectory in the atmosphere. Calculating it backwards gives you the launch point; the error won't exceed five kilometers."

Qing Chen: "Having you is my good fortune."

Yi: "Really?"

Qing Chen didn't expect this to be so simple, but why is Yi suddenly acting so cute?

In the Forbidden Forest.

Li Tongyun, Hu Xiaoniu, Chen Zhuo, Qing Ji, and over two hundred others were all riding on huge wild boars, rapidly advancing. The giants were running beside the wild boars; the boars couldn't bear their weight.

The Giant King and the Prophet each had a magnificent white wolf. They looked even more majestic and tall riding on the white wolves.

But creatures that can bear the weight of giants are still too few.

Li Tongyun looked at Kacha, doing research, "Please, what kinds of fruits do you have there?" The giants are the most knowledgeable about food. Because giants born in the Forbidden Forest only need to eat to easily reach level, the difference is only in time and appetite.

Therefore, giants are all gluttons, wanting to eat five or six meals a day, eating enough food to pile into a small mountain every day.

And the most crucial thing is that giants are much sturdier than humans, this is all due to their diet.

Li Tongyun was thinking, if humans could also eat those fruits, could they also be like these giants, using their skin to block bullets?

Kacha said in human language, "We usually eat red fruits, green fruits, yellow fruits, purple fruits..."

Currently, the giants have only settled down for over a hundred years. They haven't even developed their own writing system and rarely name plants or objects.

Giants who can even be named "Kacha" wouldn't care what the fruits are called. The young Prophet of this generation has just started doing this, but it's just the beginning.

Li Tongyun found it a bit headache-inducing. She curiously asked, "What are their effects?"

Kacha thought for a long time and couldn't explain it clearly. The Prophet riding the white wolf came to the rescue, "Red fruits can enhance muscle fibers, making your explosive power stronger. Green fruits can make skin cells tougher. Yellow fruits can enhance the strength of ligaments and tendons. I'm trying to sort them all out and make a list, but creating a writing system is quite challenging."

Li Tongyun listened for a long time. It turned out these fruits were all about defense. No wonder the giants were so tough...

These fruits must be collected and planted on Whale Island.

Actually, low defense is a problem for all Metahumans. Even a Knight Demi-God like Li Shutong would be injured if hit by a sniper bullet.

It's common knowledge that Metahumans can easily die suddenly, but Li Tongyun needs to change that.

Once they increase their defense, when the enemy tries to get close for a throat slash, the dagger would break before the neck is cut.

Just imagining it is exciting.

She looked at the Prophet again. So that's how you became bald.

"Why not use existing writing systems?" Li Tongyun said, "Although it's about inheritance, you've fallen behind for too long. You can try using other writing systems to spread and record things, such as Chinese characters."

The Prophet's eyes lit up, "I had that idea, but do you have the time to teach us?

Li Tongyun said, "We don't need to have time. Uncle Qing Ji can open a Shadow Gate and bring in a large number of teachers."

Giant Prophet asked, "Do you also have giants in East Continent?"

Li Tongyun nodded, "They're called Ding Dong and Gu Dong, one is very timid, the other is very bold."

"Can they become Demi-Gods? Do they have a way to become Demi-Gods?" Giant Prophet asked.

"I don't think so. They're currently A-class, and I haven't discussed this with them," Li Tongyun said, "Are you confused?"

Giant Prophet nodded, "Clearly, giants are the chosen species in the Forbidden Forest, but humans can become Demi-Gods, but giants can't. This worries us because it means we'll always lack high-end combat power."

Little Li Tongyun shrugged, "I can't help it. We don't know how to do it either. Maybe Brother Qing Chen can think of a way. He has many ideas."

Giant Prophet's eyes lit up. Yes, that great friend came across the ocean and will lead the giants to create a new era.

However, at this moment, a giant exclaimed, "Ha!" (King, what's wrong, King?!) 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

The Giant King's figure on the white wolf's back slipped down, and a giant quickly caught him. The Prophet jumped off the white wolf and ran over. The old Giant King had his eyes closed, on the verge of death. "Silent."

(Our King is old. He ruled our kingdom for 117 years and is finally going to rest. I advised him earlier not to participate in that war, but he said he was once the strongest Black Knight of the giants, unable to hide behind his people. People, accept death and aging calmly. This is fate's will. Let us together send him away.)

The Giant King was too old. When he lifted his scepter earlier, he felt a bit strenuous. Even straightening his stooped back caused severe pain in his spine.

Now, the Giant King, who always charged at the forefront, was about to die.

Amidst the silent mourning of the giants, Li Tongyun walked past them, with a strong sense of curiosity. She was still very small, so when she walked past the giants, it was like a little rabbit passing by a big tree.

The Giant King looked back at her, "Our King is leaving."

Li Tongyun said, "Can you put him down lower?"

Giant Prophet silently knelt down and placed the huge Giant King on the ground.

The Giant King smiled weakly with his last strength, "Illusion." (I'll go back to the Black Leaf Kingdom first, I'll wait for you there.)

As he spoke, a small hand was placed on his head for a (guan ding) a type of spiritual initiation.

The next moment, the Giant King's complexion suddenly became rosy, the wrinkled skin suddenly stretched out, and the weak muscles and tendons in his spine pulled his curved spine, straightening and stretching.

Even the Giant King's white hair completely fell off, replaced by black stubble.

The giants were shocked!

The Giant Prophet was shocked!

Even the Giant King himself was shocked: "What kind of power is this?"

Li Tongyun said with a complex expression, "This is a Cultivation inheritance from humans, called the Zhunti Method. Once initiated, it can prolong life by 21 years. I didn't consider you my own people before, so I just wanted to try it out. I didn't expect it to actually work."

"Prolong life by 21 years?" Giant Prophet was surprised, even the Black Widow nearby was somewhat eager to try. Which woman doesn't want her youth to last longer?

Li Tongyun explained, "Prolonging life by 21 years is a fixed number. As long as you're not injured, after the initiation, the aging organs will regain their vitality."

The giants: "Wow!"

They were all excited, everyone wanted to come over for the initiation! In the pushing and shoving, the Giant King who had just stood up was pushed to the outside!

The Giant King's emotions were not coherent!

At this time, Li Tongyun looked at Giant Prophet, "I also know how to make you break through to Demi-God."

Giant Prophet's expression froze.

Li Tongyun said, "Cultivation. You need Cultivation."

In the giants' past understanding, as long as they eat, they can increase their strength. The difference lies only in the quality of the food. But the world is fair. Even if giants are favored by heaven, if they want to grow into true strong people, they need diligent Cultivation.

So, when Li Tongyun initiated the Giant King, she realized a problem: Although giants are tall, their internal structure is the same as humans!

This means giants can cultivate the Zhunti Method, cultivate the Myriad Gods Thunder Technique, and even become Knights. However, the cliff giants need to climb might be higher and more dangerous!

In fact, the fact that Roosevelt King could make female giants pregnant itself shows that their genes are homologous.

The first giant was also born to a human mother!

Li Tongyun looked at the Giant Prophet, who was gradually reacting. She didn't know whether this was good or bad.

Because once the door to giant Cultivation is opened, it means that the giant race will completely lose control. No one knows where they will develop.

They are already so powerful without Cultivation, what if they Cultivate?

Li Tongyun imagined a little. When Roosevelt Kingdom encounters giants again, they see strong and powerful, four-meter-tall giants, using their racial talents and wielding lightning and clouds.

Who wouldn't be confused by this?

Same-level human Cultivators can't resist giants!

Will Knight finally have a giant Knight class? Once they start Cultivating, it's only a matter of time before giants rule the world.

But every time she thinks of a group of giants destroying Roosevelt Kingdom after Cultivation, she feels more excited.

After all, giants seem to be more simple than Roosevelt Kingdom's people.

No, giants are simple now, but who can guarantee they will still be simple in the future? This needs to be discussed with Brother Qing Chen, let him decide whether to teach them Cultivation methods.
