Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1646: Chapter 874: Betrayer of Ideals (2)

So, when the Black Knight Legion learned through the Kingdom organization intelligence that the Eastern Continent had a complete knight legacy and a demigod who could live over two hundred years, they couldn’t help but be tempted.

This is something they must obtain, the Knight’s Breathing Technique.

After hearing Number Twenty-Nine’s voice, Viola asked in return, ”Who are you?”

Bolton said, ”He’s Lao Shiyi’s disciple!”

Number Twenty-Nine thought for a moment and said, ”I’m Joker’s old friend, Zhang Jian.”

Qing Chen had once met this captain on a crab fishing boat, helped him preserve the boat, and together they obtained gold coins from a sunken ship below, starting a new life.

But after personally witnessing the wonders of Qing Chen and Yang Yang, Zhang Jian no longer longed for crab fishing.

Zhang Jian once told Qing Chen that he also wanted to travel the world and find a way to become a Time Traveler.

Thus, he truly left his crab fishing boat and traveled across North America, finally fulfilling his wish in New York to become a Time Traveler and a member of the Black Knight Legion, Number Twenty-Nine.

Number Twenty-Nine initially didn’t know Qing Chen’s identity on the floating airship until Lao Shiyi and Bolton revealed the truth.

After a long separation, Number Twenty-Nine was not very excited because he was clearly aware that Qing Chen was already in danger.

He knew that Qing Chen must have recognized him.

But Qing Chen did not acknowledge him, instead silently pretending not to know him.

Until before leaving, Qing Chen slipped him a note: Find the Fifth Princess.

Upon receiving the note, Number Twenty-Nine hesitated, knowing that the Black Knight Legion’s power was too great, and doing this would inevitably lead to him being hunted by the entire Roosevelt Kingdom.

However, when he recalled his time spent with Qing Chen and Yang Yang, he ultimately made his choice.

Might as well continue hiding back on his crab fishing boat to catch crabs. How bad could life get? Or perhaps, go to the Eastern Continent.

If the Parents’ Meeting was the first answer time gave to Qing Chen, then Number Twenty-Nine might be the second answer time provided.

Everything has a cause and effect. The cause Qing Chen casually planted before is now bearing fruit.

Viola caught the key point after hearing Number Twenty-Nine: ”Since Joker gave you a note to find me, he actually knows he will be in danger, right?”

”Looks like it,” Number Twenty-Nine replied, ”Lao Shiyi’s actions are too obvious. He knew Joker was going to the Empire TOP Military Base, so he used hunting as an excuse to park the floating airship near the base. With Joker’s intelligence, he’s bound to notice something wrong.”

Number Twenty-Nine didn’t mention that he had lived with Joker for a period and knew very well what kind of person Joker was.

Someone so formidable, how could they not see through such flaws?

”Wait, how did Lao Shiyi know Joker was going to the Empire TOP Military Base? Who told him!?” Viola’s voice became stern.

He Jinqiu.

Logically, only He Jinqiu knew Qing Chen’s plan.

And only He Jinqiu could convey this matter to the Black Knight Legion.

There’s no other answer!

The lab was raided, He Jinqiu betrayed Qing Chen, linking this series of causes and effects: when Bolton called, Lao Shiyi overheard it and knew He Jinqiu’s value, thus temporarily acted to seize the agent.

And to exchange for the agent he desired, He Jinqiu betrayed Qing Chen’s identity, giving the Black Knight Legion a chance to capture Qing Chen alive, ushering in a new era for the West Continent Knight Legion!

An era of knights aided by the Breathing Technique!

This sharp-minded Fifth Princess had already guessed a certain truth, and this truth might push Qing Chen into the abyss.

But there was another problem... When the floating airship landed near the military base, Qing Chen should have identified this clue, yet he chose to go anyway.

Why?

Seeking death?

Viola couldn’t understand.

She said to the attendant, ”Head 120 kilometers north of the military base.”

The attendant paused for a moment, ”Not directly going to the military base?”

”Do as I say.”

After speaking, Viola lay back into the Golden Coffin, and the War Robot closed the lid again.

On the other side, Bolton suddenly put on the Virtual Glasses.

Number Twenty-Nine curiously asked, ”Entering the Superconductor World at this time? You still have a mood to play?”

Bolton said, ”I’m not going to play; I’m going to call people.”

...

...

Outside the military base.

The rain poured heavily.

Qing Chen let the rain wash over his body, looking at the nearby military base, then turned to He Jinqiu: ”He Boss, can I trust you?”

He Jinqiu looked at the military base in the rainy night, seemingly touched, ”Yes.”

Qing Chen smiled, ”Time’s up, then let’s go!”

The next moment, the two simultaneously charged forward.

”The hour has come!”

He Jinqiu’s nine Jade Heart Swords flew around him, instantly cutting through the electric grid ahead.

The two rushed through the huge opening.

The military base was quiet, yet over a hundred War Robots closed in through the rain.

Half of the War Robots surrounded from the ground, while the other half flew in from the sky.

He Jinqiu’s Jade Heart Swords quickly swept across the surface of the War Robots, but none of his Jade Heart Swords collided head-on with the War Robots; instead, each cut and left quickly.

Just like gently touching, sparking tiny flashes amid the raindrops.

After a brief confrontation, none of the War Robots were damaged.
