Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1675: Chapter 885: Human Dignity

Qing Chen opened his eyes in the darkness.

He was still at the Wing Suit Flying Training Base, while outside, there were screams, cries, and chaos.

Those Time Travelers who entered the Taboo Land along with the Black Water City Corps had already been eaten by the beasts in the Taboo Land, leaving only bones.

Due to the short time since their death, the bones were still stained with flesh, and several trainees who saw it vomited for a full hour.

Outside were cries, and someone even called the police, but all of this seemed unrelated to Qing Chen inside the room. The first thing he did was to call Boss Zheng: ”Boss Zheng, Boss He had an accident.”

He knew that if there was anyone in the world who would unconditionally help He Jinqiu, it would definitely be Zheng Yuandong.

Zheng Yuandong asked solemnly on the phone: ”What do you need me to do?”

Qing Chen thought for a moment: ”We must find him first.”

At this moment, Boss He must have returned, but for some reason, he hadn’t proactively contacted Qing Chen and Zheng Yuandong.

There must be a problem here.

If He Jinqiu really had confidence to escape, he should immediately contact Qing Chen and reveal the plan.

Two police cars arrived at the training base, and even Qing Chen was recorded in the incident.

However, the European police seemed accustomed to these Time Traveler death incidents, handling it perfunctorily before leaving.

The next day, many trainees chose to temporarily withdraw from the training base due to the death incident.

The originally bustling training base suddenly became quiet, leaving only seven people.

Alice drove her pickup truck, sending the trainees off to Coleshwale International Airport. She felt a bit lost seeing the now quiet training base upon returning.

Entering the classroom, she saw Qing Chen quietly packing his parachute, and Alice was curious: ”Tager, why didn’t you leave?”

Qing Chen smiled: ”I haven’t mastered the wing suit flying skills yet, so naturally I didn’t leave.”

Alice was momentarily surprised: ”Actually... you’re a Time Traveler too, a very powerful one?”

Qing Chen did not answer: ”By the way, I introduced you to a new customer, his name is Zhang Jian, and he’s very wealthy, he’ll be learning with me.”

Previously, what happened with 29 during the rescue had been relayed by Li Tongyun, and after being confirmed by the giant, 29 indeed had no issues.

Qing Chen decided to include 29 in the Knight Reserves, learning alongside him.

Additionally, the matter with the Black Knight Corps served as a warning to him.

Maybe in his generation, no knights would stray, but what about in the future? So many knights, would there be those like the Black Knight Corps, lost in power, authority, and wealth?

The current Black Knight Corps, none of them could pass the mental induction for sure.

But what about back then? When they were passionate and sincere, could they pass? Qing Chen believed at least one or two could pass the induction.

Mental induction is only for a moment, but people can fall.

How many have their hearts set on sincerity and great ideals, only to ultimately betray those ideals? Too many.

Thus, future knights should also have internal review mechanisms, the giant’s mental induction seems like a good method.

Throughout the day, Qing Chen diligently followed Soler in learning parachuting, and for the first time, rode the helicopter at the base, making his first jump accompanied by Soler.

Everything went smoothly, Soler had never encountered such an obedient trainee.

At night, Zheng Yuandong called: ”Couldn’t find him, all Kyushu members couldn’t contact him, only said after the attack on the Kingdom, future headquarters, he stayed alone in New York and never appeared again. He hasn’t returned to Whale Island for training, nor has any consumption record, he must have activated his backup identity information, and Kyushu’s safe houses in New York.”

Qing Chen asked: ”Do Yu Cheng and Jiu Ran in Kyushu have information on the safe houses? Establishing a safe house surely wasn’t done personally by He Jinqiu, let’s follow this clue.”

Zheng Yuandong: ”That’s exactly my intention, I’ll arrive in New York tomorrow to inspect all of Kyushu’s safe houses.”

”Waiting for your update.”

...

...

In a suburban villa in New York.

He Jinqiu opened the fridge, took out a piece of freshly thawed steak. He stared at the steak for a while, even wanting to find the feeling of being an experimental subject, but after a long time, he didn’t feel a strong desire for flesh.

He tried to bite it raw. Immediately, he felt the raw beef was too slippery, spitting it into the trash.

Strange, does he count as an experimental subject now?

At this moment, He Jinqiu’s wrist had no vines, his movements were normal.

The whip marks on his body had healed cleanly, showing no signs of past injury.

Unexpectedly, he would have permanent life just like all those experimental subjects because cancer cells don’t ’die’ of old age.

”Isn’t this like King Kong Wolf then?” He Jinqiu mocked himself: ”But even King Kong Wolf has a day of aging and death, I’m better than him.”

With that, he turned to the bedroom, opened the wardrobe, picking and choosing his white shirts and gray suits.

But every piece he tried felt incompatible with his skin tone...

Helpless, he could only pick out a more casual black jacket, making himself look more relaxed.

He Jinqiu at this moment had already shed his decadence, the whole person was calm like a warrior prepared to die, knowing what choices to make, knowing what to face, making everything tranquil.
