Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1022: 634, Black Coffin_2

Later, someone used it to fight against an A-Class, and after both sides were engaged in close combat, the owner suddenly used the lighter to ignite a single hair of the opponent.

In just 2 seconds, that A-Class superhuman turned to ashes.

Of course, the conditions for using this taboo are a bit harsh. Battles between A-Class experts change in an instant; for example, a master like Jindai Yunhe would definitely avoid you if he saw you suddenly take out a lighter.

The third taboo object that can sacrifice a superhuman is ACE-015, the Wooden Fish of Jiyun Temple.

This item is somewhat sinister. It sacrifices corpses in a manner of transcendence, and even lets the sacrificed corpse’s soul float out.

The soul displays a pained expression yet has a vacant gaze, answering any question posed.

It lasts only five minutes.

The person who discovered this taboo was a high monk from the once-thriving Federal Temple of Global Cloud, which used to be one of the most popular temples.

Later, after the high monk died and left this taboo behind, people felt that it lacked any Buddhist nature and was, instead, quite cruel.

Subsequently, hundreds of human skeletons were discovered in the dungeon beneath Jiyun Temple, with knife and axe marks on them…

This incident led to an anti-monk movement within the Federation, during which the Mechanicus was born.

Initially, the public simply stopped trusting the monks, but later, some people instigated further, wanting to replace new beliefs with the Mechanicus to control the masses, ultimately benefiting the consortiums once again.

The last one, the taboo ACE-019, the Puppeteer.

These four taboo objects can be used to sacrifice superhuman corpses.

Three of them are in the hands of the Contraindicated courts. At this time, they encountered someone who could sacrifice a superhuman corpse, which meant the other party held the only one outside, the “Puppeteer” that could sacrifice superhumans.

This process of elimination is very simple…

Li Dongze pondered and asked, “What do you make of Jindai Chika’s situation?”

March calmly replied, “I suspect Jindai Chika has always carried the taboo ACE-039, ‘Beyond the Three Realms.’

This taboo is quite interesting; it’s a string of Buddha Beads extracted by the first abbot of Jiyun Temple. It has no active ability but can exempt all taboo judgments.

For instance, if you carry this string of Buddha Beads named ‘Beyond the Three Realms,’ even if you sing to the Hunter every day, they won’t bother with you.

Someone may try to burn you with the village’s best lighter, but you’ll remain unharmed.

Qing Xing may arrange your destiny on the spot, but your fate won’t change because of him.

The magic of this item lies exactly in this. If Jindai Chika was carrying it before his death, he could avoid the judgment of the six-eyed crow.

Li Dongze said, “Beyond the Three Realms has disappeared for over a hundred years. How did it end up with the Jindai Consortium?”

“That, I don’t know,” March shook his head. “I have tried using taboos to search for it before, but unfortunately, it’s exempted from all taboos and cannot be found.”

This taboo, Beyond the Three Realms, is the most suitable for the Contraindicated courts, given that they face all sorts of strange taboos.

What a pity.

“Strange. Is someone deliberately concealing Jindai Chika’s body, and why?” Li Dongze frowned. “Could it be that the Jindai Consortium has gained control over some other sinister item?”

“This cannot be determined,” March shook his head. “Tomorrow, I’ll take April and the others south. This time, the six-eyed crow’s cawing has lasted unusually long. Five eyes are bleeding, and even Hawthorn has stopped eating… Another demigod is bound to fall.”

Li Dongze said, “I’ll go with you.”

“Why?” March asked.

“The Contraindicated courts have not been so peaceful these years,” Li Dongze said. “You have too many taboos in your hands, which always draw covetous glances. Even though you all are doing something beneficial for the world, the consortiums think that they can do the same things if they get their hands on your taboos. So, from now on, you must be careful; I’ll accompany you this time.”

“Can you leave?” March gave him a sidelong glance, “If you could leave, you would have done it already.”

“It’s different,” Li Dongze shook his head. “Now, the two people arranged by my little boss are already competent in the daily management of Heng Society, especially that Zhang Tianzhen, who seems harmless but is full of craftiness. With him and Hu Xiaoniu here, maintaining a balance, I can leave.”

“Oh,” March paused for a moment. “Then pack your things and leave early in the morning. Also, don’t wear this outfit when going to the wilderness; it feels very out of place.”

Li Dongze raised an eyebrow, “Didn’t you say I look great in this outfit?”

March rolled his eyes, “There has to be an appropriate occasion.”

…

…

On the wilderness, a convoy carrying frozen meat, consisting of a total of 11 trucks, slowly made its way from the north to city No. 10.

The sides of the trucks bore the logo “Northern Divine Altars Meat Supply Group.”

This meat-supply company was a monopoly enterprise, belonging to the Jindai Consortium.

Due to natural environmental factors, they vigorously developed cattle and sheep farming in the north, then transported the beef and mutton to various southern cities.

As the convoy neared city No. 10, it began to slow down.

Without any abnormalities, the drivers awaited the border inspection by the immigration authorities, and all transport documents were in order.

An official from the immigration authority glanced at the documents, which indicated that all goods had been inspected in city No. 20, with no cases of diseased sheep since each had an embedded electronic beacon for traceability.
