Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 887: A Difficult Journey, a Return Home

In the dungeon.

Lao Er watched He Jinqiu's imposing manner, and boundless fear surged in his heart.

But the problem was, this He Jinqiu was also A-Class. Why was he so afraid of him? Lao Er didn't know why, but he was just scared.

He slowly backed away: "The people who caught you were Old Five. I'm here to let you go. Do you want me to bandage your wounds?" He Jinqiu raised his hands, silently looking at the wound on his wrist, then laughed: "Anyway, I don't need hands to kill people." There are many choices in life.

Zhang Mengqian gave up his mechanical eye-brain; he embarked on another, further path in life. He stumbled and fell along the way, but he got up again, all for the day he could finally exhale a breath, like Master Li Ban, a breath that would dispel all the unhappiness in life. Qing Zhun gave up his limited life; all for a love; and for his younger brother.

The choices in life will always make people feel somewhat sad, like standing at a crossroads; ultimately turning your head without looking back and choosing left or right, bidding farewell to another life.

And now, He Jinqiu had given up his arms. He was back, standing in this dungeon; what was he here for?

It seemed to be for Qing Chen, who had twice risked his life for him.

No, actually he was doing it for himself.

For the self he was on the banks of the Baili River.

He had walked through the mud there, been drenched in the rain,

More than ten years had passed in the blink of an eye, the past was still vivid in his memory. He thought he had forgotten.

But he hadn't. A difficult journey, a difficult journey, many diverging paths, where am I now?

He Jinqiu laughed loudly and walked forward, not at all like someone who had just lost his arms.

Lao Shier took a step back, he took a step forward; he asked: "Is the Silver Duke in the mansion?" Lao Shier was shocked, he finally knew why he was so afraid. The other party's opening remark was to look for the Silver Duke, the master swordsman. This showed that the other party was willing to challenge the master swordsman, so the other party was also a master swordsman?

What kind of person did Old Five bring back this time?

Seeing He Jinqiu walking towards him step by step, Lao Shier hurriedly backed away and said: "My eldest brother went to the Air Fortress. He's going to use the Air Fortress to hunt down Joker! I can take you up there, but without my identity verification, the Air Fortress won't let you board!"

"No need," Boss He said lightly.

As soon as the words fell, a jade flying sword, like a meteor, passed through Lao Shier's heart.

Lao Shier didn't even have a chance to react.

This absolute speed, he had only seen it in Yin Hang.

With a thud, Lao Shier slowly fell to the ground, blood flowing from his eyebrows.

He Jinqiu strode past Lao Shier's corpse without lowering his head to look at him: "Leave the corpse here! I'll borrow you for a while, wait for someone to collect it." His jade sword shone brightly in the dark dungeon, moving back and forth like a swimming dragon. The next moment, He Jinqiu walked faster and faster in the dungeon, gradually breaking into a run.

That streak of jade flying sword, before him, merged into one, with a loud bang, cutting through the dungeon door.

The reunited sword flew back quickly after passing through the door, while He Jinqiu leaped up with great effort and the sword, as if it had eyes, flew back just as He Jinqiu landed, appearing under his feet. He Jinqiu stood tall on the sword in the wind, all the way to the Air Fortress, but the more he moved, the faster he went. The Air Fortress was never known for its speed, so its speed was like a slow-flying bird compared to He Jinqiu.

Silver Duke had just boarded the Air Fortress and was still sitting in the command seat when a combat staff officer in charge of the information sand table suddenly looked surprised: "Sir, someone is chasing us from behind!" Silver Duke looked at the battle reports from the front line: "Lao Shier's floating airship?" "No," the combat staff officer had someone turn on the high-definition long-range camera of the war sand table and launch six flares into the sky. The flares slowly descended.

Purple-red persistent light illuminated the night.

Silver Duke looked up, his eyes slightly raised.

He Jinqiu!

Silver Duke finally knew where the problem lay. This prisoner, who seemed to have no way out, had actually killed his way out!

He sent Lao Shier to kill He Jinqiu, and now that He Jinqiu was still alive, Lao Shier was probably dead. "Release the drones, indiscriminate killing," Silver Duke said fiercely: "The drones are faster, let them adopt the self-destruction mode, don't hold back. Also, take this time to adjust the trajectory of the main artillery." Then, the 72 main guns at the bottom of the Air Fortress, under the guidance of the trajectory, quickly slid to the side. Once in place, the magnificent pulse could achieve indiscriminate, no-dead-angle firepower coverage in a single direction. The white light that spanned 600 kilometers in an instant, was this means; 600 kilometers was not far in modern warfare, but it was specifically designed to shoot down the Air Fortress. At the same time, around the entire Air Fortress, thousands of protective armors opened like scales; inside were countless hexagonal nests, where the standby drones were.

In the Air Fortress, dozens of soldiers put on neural interface goggles.

Connection 10, Connection 38, Connection 100.

With a hum, the countless drones were all activated!

Soldiers controlled the dense drones flying out of the hive, forming a terrifying dark cloud in the sky. Silver Duke silently stared at the sand table.

The moment He Jinqiu appeared, he knew that in the Fate Weaver's prophecy, the biggest variable was probably He Jinqiu.

He had been cautious enough, and from the moment he saw Yin Hang's figure, he released enough drones to wipe out an air fleet.

To use this number of drones to target a single person. Even the soldiers on the Air Fortress had never seen this kind of battle.

Wasteful, too wasteful.

This was no longer saturation attack; this was a mad dog attack, regardless of the cost, just to kill one person.

But then, the Holographic Sand Table suddenly showed: "His speed hasn't decreased at all! He's still accelerating!"

So, even in the face of an Air Fortress, the other party still had no intention of retreating.

Was he crazy, or did he have the confidence? No one could be sure.

Silver Duke shouted fiercely: "End the attack!" At this time, the Silver Air Fortress had not yet had time to fly out of the city.

Many residents heard the sound of the Air Fortress moving and were startled, lying down to watch. Was a new war about to break out?

But what they saw was not war, but under the light of the flares, one man, alone in the sky, flying on a sword, charging at a huge Air Fortress!

In the night, the signal lights on the drones twinkled, forming groups of star-like structures, engulfing He Jinqiu like a galaxy.

Like the sea was about to engulf a lone boat,

That lone boat looked particularly small and alone.

The city's residents stared with wide eyes, they couldn't understand why anyone would try to challenge a mountain-like Air Fortress alone.

They couldn't understand why the Air Fortress would attach so much importance to one person.

But He Jinqiu looked at the vast "stars," and he felt the same feeling he had when facing the flood—the swarm of drones seemed to be a surging flood, he stood in the flood with his red vest, hearing the sergeant's call and the shouts of his comrades.

He seemed to hear someone shouting,

"The west bank is breached! Where's the second squad?!"

Yin Hang suddenly laughed, a bitter laugh. The next moment, another stream of light flew out from his mouth, it was not his painstakingly crafted flying sword; but his ten fingertips.

This wasn't flying, but soaring.

After He Jinqiu coexisted with pain, the paths of life he had walked through countless times in his dreamlike life were not useless. Those dreams agitated his mental will, time and again merging with the will of the world.

The will of the world had agreed to the transformation; but that mental will remained!

He was a master swordsman, but he had no sword to use:

Since there was no sword to use, then use his ten fingers!

At this moment, the boundless swarm of drones had entered the eight-hundred-meter range!

"Noon has arrived."

He saw that the sword under his feet also split into two, and the two bone swords flew into the night sky together.

The twelve Demi-Gods became faster and faster.

The flares in the sky gradually faded, but the twelve Demi-Gods produced an overwhelming starry light in the sky!

The airflow swirled, and the drones turned into fireballs and fell.

At noon, within an eight-hundred-meter radius, everything withered and flourished!

The soldiers in the Air Fortress slowly fell into shock. In just ten breaths of time, the seemingly overwhelming swarm of drones was gone! Was this still a human?

He Jinqiu stood on the sword, gazing at the mountain-like Air Fortress in the sky.

Was it over? Not yet!

In the night sky, he seemed to hear the old sergeant roaring:

"Second squad, those who are not afraid of death, follow me!"

He Jinqiu turned, but there were no comrades around him, only the empty sky. But it didn't matter, he had nineteen Demi-Gods.

The next moment, the twelve Demi-Gods returned to He Jinqiu's side, and once again launched a charge at the Air Fortress!

Earlier, Lao Shier said that without him, He Jinqiu would never be able to enter the Air Fortress,

He Jinqiu replied, no need,

Because without anyone else, he could still kill his way in.

Seeing He Jinqiu turn into a meteor, he sped across the sky, leaving a winding path. Because of his speed, even the Air Fortress's electromagnetic sensors could not lock onto him. Silver Duke coldly said: "Let the main artillery fire at full capacity."

The main guns were originally pointed downwards, because in non-air-to-air warfare, their deterrence was mainly aimed at the ground.

But the cautious Silver Duke had already ordered their adjustment. They were already at the designated trajectory!

This combat method was very costly. After one shot, the Air Fortress would not be able to provide sufficient power to the surrounding thrusters due to the nuclear reactor's overloaded operation, and the flight speed would be greatly reduced. However, now, Silver Duke didn't need to consider this issue, he only needed to face one person: kill this person.

However, when the soldiers operated the main artillery to prepare to fire, they found that He Jinqiu had disappeared from the Holographic Sand Table.

"Disappeared?"

"No, he flew directly above the Silver Air Fortress!" A combat staff officer shouted.

The soldiers were stunned. What to do? The Air Fortress didn't have any firepower for anti-air combat.

This wasn't a design flaw.

But the Air Fortress could fly to an altitude that almost no aircraft could reach; it could even cruise at an altitude of 15,000 meters, ready to strike ground targets at any time.

At this altitude, even Force field type Awakened Ones couldn't fly up.

In the command room, everyone stared at the figure on the Holographic Sand Table. He Jinqiu stood on the ten swords, looking at something.

"Wait, why isn't he moving?" "He seems to be in a daze?"

He Jinqiu in the clouds was looking up at the sky. He saw the vast silver river flowing in the light, saw the stars in the sky within reach. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Vast, magnificent. Untouchable.

No one expected that in this fierce battlefield, this lonely and proud swordsman would suddenly gaze at the stars and become lost in thought.

Actually, he had been able to fly on a sword for two months, but he had never seen this breathtaking scene.

Only now did he realize what he had missed in his life.

"So beautiful," He Jinqiu exclaimed, a tear flowing from the corner of his eye.

Not sad, not tragic.

He only marveled at the vastness of the world and the narrowness of life.

At this moment, the black hair on his head turned white, overnight!

He Jinqiu laughed and sighed: "Flowers will bloom again, but people will not be young again." In his life, he had stumbled and stumbled, missed, cried, laughed, restrained, let go, looking back, he had taken so many wrong paths.

On that road, there were fierce tigers in the morning and long snakes in the evening, sharp teeth and blood, killing like hemp.

But it didn't matter. It didn't matter.

He Jinqiu suddenly fell, driving the nineteen Demi-Gods around him, the Demi-Gods becoming faster and faster, to the point where it was impossible to distinguish which was sword and which was person.

After becoming a master swordsman, the flying sword became exceptionally brilliant.

The residents of Silver City only felt that a meteor seemed to fall from the sky, drawing a straight line of brilliant light, piercing the clouds with unimaginable speed and striking the Air Fortress.

The clouds seemed to have a hole pierced in them, and the clouds poured downwards.

That brilliant light continued to fall, falling, straight, sharp, unstoppable, with a loud bang, the light exploded on the deck of the Air Fortress.

A second later.

That unique light in the world, pierced from the sky above the Silver Air Fortress, then pierced from the bottom, countless pieces of the black fortress falling from the sky, heavily crashing onto the ground.

That huge war machine was actually pierced by Yin Hang!

Immediately afterwards, a huge fire erupted from the hole that had been pierced!

Unprecedented, unparalleled!

Since the birth of Air Fortress in human history, it has never experienced such a blow!

After all Metahumans become master swordsmen, people must judge their true strength and position in the food chain based on their battles with other master swordsmen.

But Yin Hang did not fight any master swordsmen after he became one, he chose a more terrifying opponent.

A difficult journey.

A return home!
