Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1158: Chapter 681: The Beginning of Disaster (Part 2)

This intimidating title corresponds to a mere D-class superhuman.

In an instant, the transparent threads in Qing Chen’s hand suddenly split apart, skillfully wrapping around the wrists of the three fighters.

The Puppeteer was exuberant.

Every thread end opened like a tiny snake’s mouth, fiercely piercing into the vein vessels in the wrists of the fighters.

For the past few months, Qing Chen had been using it like a knife.

Among the Puppeteer’s previous owners, two of them had split the threads into 18 strands, which was its peak state.

Now, the Puppeteer wants Qing Chen to remember its original function, it even eats rats!

It’s been so hard!

This thing finally remembers its original function as a taboo!

Amidst the panic of the crowd, no one noticed what Qing Chen had done, and soon after, the three fighters volunteered to charge out of the crowd, patrolling around it, protecting everyone.

As the rat swarm surrounded them, these three people remained unflinching, shouting for everyone not to be afraid, while fighting separately at an astounding speed, unexpectedly halting the rat swarm.

The gambler, who had just been interrogated by Qing Chen, suddenly felt the three fighters had become formidable...

It’s not that they had suddenly become brave, but genuinely became skillful.

Their strength and forces matched a certain rhythm and pattern, their breathing frequency and movements perfectly synchronized, even outsiders found it aesthetically pleasing.

The gambler thought, you guys are actually this strong, damn it, you were genuinely rigging matches before!

But what the gambler didn’t know was, the sudden prowess of the three fighters wasn’t due to their own strength but because Qing Chen was multitasking, controlling them.

At this moment, a rat jumped up, attempting to bypass the three and dive into the crowd, forcing them to scatter.

But when the rat was airborne, an unidentified sharp object suddenly sliced it in half, and in the next second, its corpse turned to ashes midair.

Sacrificed.

Several more rats jumped, but in the night, it seemed someone had crafted a net of threads cutting lives, with Qing Chen as the center and the three fighters as pivot points, securely guarding the refugees inside.

All this happened in the darkness, Qing Chen was like a player holding three pieces multitasking.

The skill of multitasking, perfected by practicing the Rubik’s Cube, finally came in handy.

Qing Chen shouted: ”Don’t panic, just like us, actively defend against the rat swarm. They’re only slightly faster, not as terrifying as you think! All grown men stand out, if I see anyone hiding behind children and the elderly, I’ll kill them immediately!”

At this moment, City No. 10 was wrapped in darkness and fear. The refugees, upon hearing Qing Chen’s words, felt as if injected with a stimulant, finally, over ten men were willing to stand out and help in the rat fight.

Among them, 12 were young men, only 2 were middle-aged.

The rest of the middle-aged men still chose to hide in the crowd and watch others fight.

Qing Chen felt a rising unease, as more and more rats filled the street, they had laboriously fought for half the day, yet the crowd had barely moved forward a few meters.

At this moment, someone rushed out of a private club on the street, panicking and screaming.

The first to come out were the attendants, followed closely by a middle-aged man in a suit, accompanied by two women wearing gold-sequined evening gowns and high heels.

Four bodyguards protected these people alongside them, looking hurried, using candlelight to guide their employer.

Refugees, by the light, saw the women and shouted in surprise: ”Wang Wenwen, Zhou Jieyi!”

Both Wang Wenwen and Zhou Jieyi are famous actresses in the Federation’s film industry, akin to leading ladies. No one expected to meet these celebrities escaping alongside them.

Qing Chen recognized the middle-aged man beside the two celebrities, the congressman of the 13th city district, Chen Luwen!

This congressman was a part of the Chen Clan’s branch, and one of the representatives of Chen Clan in the Federal Political Center, known for his inspiring speeches with considerable persuasion, he had just passed an employment bill a few days ago.

On television, Chen Luwen had passionately stated that the Federation’s employment rate would immediately rise, and people’s lives would become happy.

Four bodyguards escorted the employer and the two ladies into the crowd, cautiously hiding.

Qing Chen didn’t need to look to know the rat tide must have also erupted inside the private club.

Those private clubs in the Federation, to prevent rats and cockroaches, have specially treated reverse drains, rats generally can’t climb up.

But they underestimated the rats’ ferocity and intelligence, which had forcibly opened the sealed drains and invaded the private club.

Qing Chen glanced at the four bodyguards, judging they were probably equipped with firearms, and shouted: ”Bodyguards, come and help, let’s fight our way out together!”

The four bodyguards had just started moving when Chen Luwen sternly said: ”Whose bodyguards are you? Stay by my side, don’t go anywhere.”

Qing Chen frowned, shouting across the distance: ”If we don’t help, we’ll all die. Our best bet now is to fight our way out!”

Chen Luwen, with a cold smile, told the bodyguards: ”Don’t listen to him, just protect the three of us. When the blackout happened, Li Ling already went to alert the garrison forces, they should be arriving any moment!”

During the blackout, instead of panicking, Chen Luwen promptly, using his status as a congressman, had someone go seeking the garrison forces.
