Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1435: Chapter 783: So He Wasn’t Lying

“Captain,” Ga Wa lay quietly behind the mountain cover, looking relaxed, “where did this person come from, and why did he hitch a ride with us?”

Jiacuo replied, “He said he ascended from the South Slope and then skied from Mount Everest to the North Slope… At first, I thought he was making it up, but now I’m starting to believe him.”

Ga Wa suddenly said, “Captain, on the road, I told him I’m a sharpshooter. He told me he is too. I said I could hit a coin within ten meters, and he said he could hit one within three thousand meters… I also thought he was making it up back then.”

Jiacuo was stunned for a moment, “Why didn’t you tell me about this before?”

Ga Wa: “I could tell you guys, but you have to believe it first.”

Jiacuo asked, “What else did he say? Did he mention what he does for a living?”

Ga Wa said, “He did. He said he’s a repairman. I asked him what he repairs and if he could fix my tractor. He said he repairs people, not tractors…”

“Repairs people? How does he do that?”

“Factory reset.”

Jiacuo was speechless. Why not just say you kill people so they can reincarnate?

It was the first time he had heard someone describe killing in such a civilized way!

“Captain, there are still more than twenty people over there with De Ji. Sending him alone to pursue them, wouldn’t that be too dangerous?” Ga Wa asked.

Jiacuo recalled Qing Chen’s speed, which was fast enough to leave afterimages in his vision, and replied while lying on the ground, “I’m already wondering if De Ji’s wife will remarry after she becomes a widow.”

…

…

Poachers and the patrol team had a long-standing feud. They gathered more than twenty people here at Zhaxi, certain that the patrol team would pass through.

According to De Ji, the patrol team was small in numbers, and if they could annihilate the entire team here, they could hunt freely from summer to fall this year.

However, everything changed when that black sniper rifle appeared.

The poachers were running down the hillside with their guns. Just a moment ago, the other side had burst the heads of two teammates with two shots, making the scene extremely bloody.

It scared these bloodthirsty criminals out of their wits.

De Ji asked, “Didn’t you notice someone with a sniper rifle just now?”

“We didn’t notice. That person looked entirely different from Jiacuo and the others. I thought he was just a hitchhiking mountaineer,” someone said. “Now that I think about it, he might be a helper Jiacuo hired from elsewhere!”

On this land, the war between poachers and the patrol team had been going on for fifty years, but this was the first time a sniper appeared…

At this moment, De Ji looked at a middle-aged man in the crowd, “Hey, Zhang Cuo, what do we do now?”

But Zhang Cuo, with a calm yet fierce expression, said, “What’s there to fear about a sniper? There’s a gully up ahead. We wait in there for him to catch up. As long as I get a chance to get close, he’s dead.”

De Ji felt slightly relieved. Indeed, this prison buddy he met was skilled and was said to be a rather powerful ‘Time Traveler.’

Time Travelers are scarce in the entire Tibetan region.

After the crossing, due to the geography of the Federal City, Time Travelers mainly gathered in the Central Plains, excluding the Tibetan and Xinjiang regions. After all, in the Inner World, the areas corresponding to these two provinces had already turned into Taboo Land No. 001.

Zhang Cuo, after serving his sentence, originally planned to screw bolts in an electronic factory on the southeast coast, but as soon as he arrived in Guangcheng, he became a Time Traveler and even a Genetic Warrior.

Without hesitation, he immediately bought a train ticket back, planning to return to this familiar territory to strengthen and expand his influence, creating glory once more.

Zhang Cuo wasn’t short on money. When he sold the animal skins abroad, he could casually sell the import and export medications from the Inner World to foreign tycoons, especially Middle Eastern tycoons with exceptionally high offers.

But just having money was boring. He also wanted to establish his own power here.

“Hurry, there’s only a few dozen meters left. Get into the gully quickly, and wait for him to catch up,” Zhang Cuo whispered.

However, as soon as they ducked into the gully, they saw Qing Chen already waiting there.

No one knew how the other party ran even faster than them.

The poachers hurriedly opened fire, but as the bullets flew out, they all halted in mid-air in front of Qing Chen, like a scene from a sci-fi film…

In the blink of an eye, this max-level warrior slaughtered through the poachers…

Zhang Cuo tried to leverage his status as an F-Class Genetic Warrior to fight back, but as soon as he engaged, he was beaten to the ground.

He was a little desperate because, throughout the battle, he never even caught a glimpse of the opponent, nor could he discern his capabilities.

The gap was too big!

Qing Chen didn’t kill anyone else. He remembered Ga Wa mentioning that the patrol team receives a reward for capturing poachers—five thousand dollars per person.

The poachers lay on the ground groaning, while Qing Chen looked down at them: “Who’s the Time Traveler?”

Normally, the physical traits of a Genetic Warrior would be distinct, but since he had taken everyone down at once, he didn’t have a chance to differentiate which one was the Time Traveler…

At this time, De Ji, still struggling on the ground, shouted, “Zhang Cuo, kill him!”

Zhang Cuo looked up to see who this sudden Time Traveler was but was stunned upon seeing Qing Chen’s face. In a heartfelt manner, he exclaimed, “Why would a big shot like you come here!”

Others might not recognize Qing Chen, but as a Time Traveler in the Federation, how could he not?

Who is Qing Chen now? He’s a real big shot in the Inner World. Anyone slightly tuned into current affairs could see him in the news every day!

In front of such a figure, what was he worth?

Zhang Cuo had actually crossed paths with Qing Chen in the Inner World. After his crossover, he became the deputy leader of a syndicate in City 13. Initially, it was quite thrilling to bully and act arrogant.

Until the Parents’ Meeting showed up… Those tough guys from the Parents’ Meeting ran up walls and cleaned up all the gangs in the lower three districts.

If it hadn’t been for the Chen Clan’s crackdown on the Parents’ Meeting, Zhang Cuo would still be working the sewing machine!

Zhang Cuo simply couldn’t understand why Qing Chen would appear in such a place.

You’re such an important person, what are you doing in this backwater!

While pondering, not far away, De Ji was still shouting, “Zhang Cuo, hurry up and shoot him!”

Zhang Cuo shuddered all over, almost getting up to kowtow to De Ji, “I beg you, shut up already…”

Qing Chen looked at Zhang Cuo and chuckled, “Which city’s Time Traveler are you?”

Zhang Cuo hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied, “City No. 13, you might not have seen me before, but your subordinate Xiao Wu definitely has. Please let me off this time.”

“Oh?” Qing Chen looked at him in surprise, “You know Xiao Wu?”

“Yeah, it was him who personally sent me to work the sewing machine,” Zhang Cuo replied.

Qing Chen couldn’t help but laugh, “So you’re slacking off in both the Outer World and the Inner World. Alright, I’ll let Jiacuo send you to prison so you won’t cause trouble for society again.”

He shouted toward the hillside, “Jiacuo, we’re arresting someone, bring the handcuffs!”

In no time, Jiacuo and the others came running over, and were dumbfounded seeing a bunch of poachers lying on the ground.

“Don’t just stand there, I still need to head back to the Mainland,” Qing Chen said with a smile, “Finish up quickly so we can leave early.”

“Got it!” Ga Wa excitedly ran over and kicked De Ji, “That’s for talking big, and for attacking Uncle Zaxi!”

Jiacuo cuffed each person and found the poachers’ pickup truck, stuffing them all into the truck bed.

Feeling a bit sheepish, he returned the gold bar to Qing Chen, “We were a bit ungrateful earlier. If it weren’t for you, we might all be dead by now.”

Qing Chen smiled and pushed the gold bar back, “The ride fee is for the ride; it’s a separate matter.”

Meanwhile, Zhang Cuo was still struggling as he looked back and shouted at Qing Chen, “Give me one more chance, I swear I won’t dare anymore. I’ll voluntarily find Xiao Wu to work the sewing machine when I get back. Please don’t lock me up in the Outer World.”

Qing Chen ignored him, but Jiacuo grew curious.

Before leaving, he leaned in next to Zhang Cuo and asked, “Do you know that guy?”

Zhang Cuo was stunned, “You don’t know him?”

“Is he one of those legendary Time Travelers? Just how powerful is he?” Jiacuo’s curiosity deepened.

Zhang Cuo: “You’re putting me in a tough spot, I’m not even qualified to know how strong he is.”

Jiacuo: “…”

The others helped Zaxi set up his tent again, and Qing Chen asked, “Does Zaxi need to go to the hospital?”

Jiacuo casually said, “No need, we’re tough and resilient, we’ll be fine.”

Qing Chen sat in the pickup truck, setting off again, feeling the spring breeze on his face. He realized that after gaining power, he seemed to always focus on bigger goals and overlooked some beautiful little things.

Like fighting poachers, like being a chivalrous hero.

In the truck bed, Ga Wa asked, “Did you really slide down from Mount Everest?”

Qing Chen nodded, “Yeah.”

“Can you really hit a coin from 3,000 meters away?”

Qing Chen thought for a moment, “The wind speed can’t exceed level 8.”

Amid Ga Wa’s continuous exclamations, the convoy went farther and farther.

Qing Chen asked, “Ga Wa, why did you become a patrol team member? The salary isn’t high, and it’s dangerous.”

Ga Wa scratched his head, “No particular reason, just felt that what those people were doing was wrong, and someone should take care of it.”

Qing Chen chuckled, “That’s great.”

The patrol team members on the truck began to sing, their voices desolate yet robust.

…

…

Countdown 04:00:00.

Nearing the time for crossing, Jiacuo and Ga Wa, along with others, stood at the entrance of Peace Airport, seeing Qing Chen off.

Jiacuo hugged Qing Chen and said, “Come back and visit when you can.”

After thinking for a moment, Qing Chen said, “After I return, I’ll arrange to establish a foundation specifically for combating poachers, to provide you with some financial support. Of course, mainly to help the families of patrol team members who sacrificed, so you can be less burdened.”

“Thank you so much,” Jiacuo said earnestly, “You’re a good person!”

After a moment of reflection, Qing Chen smiled and said, “Being called a good person is too high a compliment, but I’ll try my best. See you!”

With that, Qing Chen turned and walked into the airport.

After a short break, he’s destined to embark on a new journey.

Time to cross over.
