Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1709: Chapter 899: Duck Boat

”Illusion!” the Second Master of the giants shouted loudly.

(All adult giants, gather here!)

Unlike humans, in the eyes of giants, being twelve years old is considered adulthood.

At first, the humans who just arrived here said that twelve is too young, still just a child.

Then, when everyone turned their heads and saw a ’child’ twice as tall as themselves, they were completely shocked!

Standing before them, that twelve-year-old child was like an iron tower...

At this moment, all the giants stopped playing around and stood in front of the palace... speaking of the palace, actually, it’s more accurate to say it’s the largest stone house in the village, which looks more magnificent than any human palace.

At this time, the Second Master opened his arms wide: ”Illusion!”

(One hundred and thirty-two years ago, on his deathbed, the first generation Prophet made a great prophecy. He said one day, a friend from across the ocean would come here, guiding us to defeat the Roosevelt Kingdom and move towards a new era, and now he has arrived. Under his guidance, we have achieved an unprecedented victory and made some new friends. We giants have unanimously decided to make him the new king so that he will not leave us.)

Giants: ”Wow!”

Qing Chen was dumbfounded... so straightforward? The key point is just this last sentence, right!

He actually realized that the former King of Giants and current Second Master looked very elder-like, but in fact, was very cunning.

The other side says it’s abdicating to the worthy, but in reality, it’s about firmly tying his fate, the Eastern Continent, and the giants’ fate together.

In the next moment, the Second Master pulled out a bone saber, cut a wound in his palm, then walked to Qing Chen, bent over, and let the blood drip onto Qing Chen’s feet.

Then, he handed the bone saber to the Giant Prophet.

The Black Spider and others looked solemn; they suddenly realized this was not some useless ritual but was helping Qing Chen to contain this Royal Court of Kurobahara!

One by one, the giants let their blood drip from their palms, seeping into the stone slab beneath Qing Chen’s feet, staining it a purplish-red.

Qing Chen silently watched, not hypocritically refusing.

He was not a saint, nor did he believe in the nonsense of captivating everyone with personal charisma; only by containing this land and making the giants its subjects could he collaborate with them with peace of mind.

The ceremony continued from noon to afternoon until suddenly, Qing Chen felt as if he had merged with this world, with every tree and grass in his heart, including those giants.

He could even... if he wanted, sense what the giants were thinking.

As if he had a talent for mental synchronization.

Wait a minute.

This is not the state of containing a Taboo Land... he contained a Taboo.

A Taboo similar to Whale Island!

Back then, Jinguji Maki could also perceive everything beneath the sea, hear the call of the Seabed Shikigami over several kilometers, as well as that evil aura.

Now, it’s the same for him.

The Seabed Shikigami were subjects of Whale Island, just like the giants now.

The residents of Whale Island were also subjects.

However, because Whale Island was brought from the Inner World to the Outer World by Boss Zheng, those subjects were bound by rules and could never leave.

Kurobahara is different; it has always been in the Inner World, so the subjects can leave.

No wonder the Giant King said that once Qing Chen contained this place, he would be able to demand that giants must return here for childbirth, allowing him to always be the king of all giants.

Previously, Qing Chen was wondering, he is the container of Taboo Land No. 002, but he couldn’t command the Qing Shan Falcon to do anything.

If he only contained a Taboo Land, there would be no reason to be able to restrain giants.

Now he finally understood, Kurobahara... is a Taboo.

No wonder the Roosevelt Kingdom couldn’t find the trace of the Giant King Court, because here, like Whale Island, was obscured by an invisible force.

At this time, the young Giant Prophet said gently, ”This is a Taboo derived from my grandfather, the first generation Prophet. He hoped even after death, he could still protect his people. His entire life was devoted to this, and even in death, he continues to do so. Therefore, the condition for containing this Taboo is obtaining the recognition of all adult giants of Kurobahara, not one less.”

This is probably the hardest Taboo to contain in the world.

In the next moment, Qing Chen, with a thought, saw stone houses rise in the Royal Court, brick and tile added to the houses built by giants, finally no longer leaking wind.

Kurobahara was contained for the first time, surprising even the Second Master and the Prophet with its changes.

Qing Chen carefully felt that Kurobahara’s area is larger than Whale Island, even four to five times as large.

However, it cannot accelerate plant growth like Whale Island.

Qing Chen realized the crux: energy conservation.

Beneath Whale Island was a well continuously absorbing water to convert into primal energy, supplying the island with needed energy.

But Kurobahara doesn’t have such a structure or function; the food and animals the giants consume are obtained from outside.

Kurobahara’s primary function is providing giants with a hidden sanctuary, enterable only through special methods.

Qing Chen took a deep breath; it was time to plan how to integrate giants into a life with technology.

He looked at Qing Ji: ”Uncle Qing Ji, are the Qing’s Family weapon experts ready? Have them start designing weapons for the giants, like handheld 155-caliber howitzers, or handheld self-aiming metal storms; try to figure it out.”

Beside him, Black Spider felt a chill down his spine. The 155-caliber howitzer, capable of firing up to 120 kilometers, usually requires a vehicle for transportation.

But... it seemed like the giants had no problem carrying it by hand.

At this moment, Qing Chen felt something was wrong.

His train of thought seemed a bit off.

He suddenly looked at Zero, ”Uh... Auntie, shouldn’t you be more skilled at this kind of thing?”

Indeed, what weapon expert in this world could surpass artificial intelligence?

Missile parameters, various gunpowder parameters, alloy parameters; once provided, the AI could perform tens of thousands of simulation experiments in a heartbeat.

This was the entity capable of building the Superconductor World.

This was the entity that could research and develop the S-Class ultimate move God Cutter within the Superconductor World and apply it to reality.

Such a powerful being should contribute to the beautiful New World!

Take Zard, for instance. With just that one move, Sky Burial, isn’t it time for an upgrade to version 2.0?

And Liu Dezhu, couldn’t his flame-based abilities have new uses? Shooting fireballs every day, what’s the difference from shouting Avada Kedavra?

And Yangyang, couldn’t her Power Field System abilities be fiercer?

This Zero, she could solve all of this. She could fully help White Day, Parents’ Meeting, and the giants to enter the 2.0 era.

An elder at home is like a treasure!

Zero looked at the expectant gaze of Qing Chen and frowned.

At this moment, Yi whispered from the side, ”Help him, won’t you...”

After a long silence, Zero turned to Qing Chen and said, ”Alright, I can help you design it.”

...

A young man was drifting on the Forbidden Sea.

He was sitting on a small duck boat, pedaling continuously with his legs.

Yes, it was the kind of duck boat that tourists play with in the park.

But this duck boat was a bit different; despite the young man not pedaling particularly fast, it could sail swiftly across the waves.

It was so fast that the seawater seemed to slice apart, revealing waves surging on both sides.

”What a splendid scenery,” the young man marveled, seeing seagulls flapping their wings, the sea and sky merging into one, filling him with a sense of grandeur.

Just as the young man was feeling relaxed, a massive dark shadow began to slowly surface beneath the duck boat.

The shadow emerged on the water, vast and boundless.

The duck boat on the shadow was as small as a sesame seed on a winter melon.

The next moment, enormous tentacles erupted from the seabed, attempting to drag the duck boat into the depths as a prize, yet before the tentacles could reach the duck boat, the young man propelled himself with effort!

With a booming sound, the duck boat suddenly accelerated as if on steroids, escaping the danger zone.

The speed was astonishing, as if the boat was flying across the sea.

The enormous tentacles slapped the water, creating massive waves and whirlpools, but by the time they attempted to locate the duck boat again, it had already dashed several kilometers away.

The duck boat navigated the tumultuous seas safely and finally sighted the coastline of the West Continent.

The young man smiled, ”Finally, I’m here.”

He pedaled forcefully, landed ashore!

The young man hid the duck boat among a pile of palm leaves and began to leisurely make his way inland; his landing spot was remarkably close to where Qing Chen first landed.

He hadn’t gone far when several patrolling floating airships quickly descended.

A voice echoed from the floating airships, ”Get down, hands on your head, stop resisting!”

The young man muttered, ”I’m not resisting.”

He obediently got down, his hands on his head.

Combat personnel descended from the floating airship via ropes, pressing a knee against his neck and placing handcuffs on him, ”Who are you?”

Due to Joker’s successful infiltration, Storm City had tightly sealed the entire coast, with over five hundred drones and twenty-four floating airships patrolling daily to prevent Eastern Continent people from smuggling in.

The young man had unwittingly walked into their grip. He sighed, ”Kind of unlucky, others all snuck in safely, but how come I failed?”

Then, spitting out a mouthful of sand, still smiling unperturbed, he spoke in English, ”I don’t know who’s in charge here, but could you report that my name is Zong Cheng, a Puppet Master from the Eastern Continent, and someone will be very interested in me.”

”Because we have a common interest.”

Another Chapter will be up in the morning
