Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1869: Chapter 977: Amnesia (Part 2)

The two of them talked intensely for seven hours before they roughly explained Qing Chen’s situation.

Qing Chen stood there, stunned. ”I didn’t realize so much had happened.”

But for a normal person, it felt like he was listening to someone else’s story with no sense of immersion at all.

Those names seemed somewhat familiar, yet inexplicably strange.

At this moment, Qing Chen found it hard to believe that he had established such a large organization, become the Qing Clan House Master, taken a crucial step on the path to becoming a god, and caused his own memory loss...

However, upon analysis, his brain confirmed that during the seven hours of narration by Yi, there was basically no logical flaw.

A seven-hour-long story without logical loopholes is very hard to achieve.

The only apparent flaw seemed to be that the Qing Chen in the story had become a highly illustrious person, influencing others with his actions and doing many selfless things.

Yet, the current Qing Chen remained cautious, selfish, and didn’t feel like he would do such things.

Just like when he first entered Prison No. 18, he only hoped to live well and wasn’t really concerned with whether others survived.

Yi asked, ”What did you experience while you were unconscious these past few days?”

Qing Chen muttered to himself, ”I feel like I’ve lost something very important, but I can’t remember what it is.”

Awakening from a ten-year-long dream, everything in the dream had vanished.

The feeling was like a meteor streaking across the sky, fleeting.

Perhaps there would be other meteors in your life, but it would never be the same one.

Yi and Black Spider exchanged glances. ”What do we do now?”

Black Spider whispered, ”It’s good that the boss has woken up. I’ll go outside and scout the situation. If it’s safe, I’ll find a way to contact Qing Ji and have him come to take the boss back to the Eastern Continent. If... if I don’t return within an hour, stay here with him and keep waiting for the right moment.”

With communications with the outside world cut off, no one knew what was happening outside, making venturing out akin to a death mission.

But Black Spider knew they couldn’t wait any longer.

Qing Chen looked at Black Spider, confused. ”Is it still dangerous outside? Why not wait a little longer until it’s safe to go out?”

Black Spider turned to Qing Chen with a smile, ”Boss, many people are waiting for you to return. I can wait, but they can’t. From the moment I officially called you boss, I was prepared to face danger.”

Qing Chen remained silent, surprised to find that upon waking from this long dream, ’yesterday’s’ self was just a student, while ’today’s’ self was worth others risking their lives for.

It was a bit abrupt for him.

Black Spider turned and walked out, but at that moment, a war robot waded through the dark sewer system with a very clear target, causing rats in the sewer to scatter in all directions with the sound of its movements.

The war robot arrived at the entrance of the safe house and knocked on the wall, saying, ”Open the door.”

Yi turned around suddenly at the sound from outside, looking at Black Spider with a puzzled expression: Did someone else know about this safe house?

Black Spider shook her head in bewilderment, drawing a pistol from her waist and quietly aiming it at the door.

In her understanding, no one should know about this safe house!

Then, the war robot outside spoke, ”Yi, it’s Zero.”

Yi was stunned, and Black Spider said, ”Open the door. If the Drama Master found this place, no matter how much we struggle, it would be useless.”

The door of the safe house opened, revealing the ordinary war robot stepping in and casually closing the door behind it.

One of the greatest advantages of artificial intelligence is their ability to have countless avatars, allowing Zero to simultaneously operate on the West Continent while commanding operations on the Eastern Continent Federation.

Qing Chen’s pupils contracted sharply at the sight of the war robot. A robot!

Despite Yi and Black Spider’s lengthy explanations, he remained skeptical; the seven-hour story wasn’t as impactful as the war robot, looking like Iron Man in front of him!

Standing there, it attested to the differences of this world.

Zero looked at Qing Chen, ”Lost your memory already?”

Qing Chen replied, ”It’s like anyone can tell I’ve lost my memory. I feel like I’ve been played.”

Black Spider asked Zero, ”How is the situation outside?”

Zero shook his head, ”The outside is now blocked by the Central Royal City Garrison, the entire city has gone into signal silencing communication silence, and drones are patrolling everywhere. I’ve lost access to the Sky Eye Network, making it impossible to smuggle you out secretly.”

Black Spider’s heart sank, realizing they couldn’t even send out any message from here.

She asked in confusion, ”How did you know about this safe house?”

Zero responded, ”All clues of the future are hidden in the past. Building such a safe house would inevitably involve removing vast amounts of soil, bricks, and stones, as well as importing supplies and weapons. Moreover, when constructing it, the flow rate in the sewer system would be affected. None of this could escape my observation.”

It was then that Black Spider realized the terrifying capability of artificial intelligence.

”What should we do now?” Yi asked.

Zero said, ”Just wait quietly here in the safe house. The surface cannot be sealed forever, and the entire city cannot maintain communication silence indefinitely. Additionally, Qing Chen is unlikely to remain amnesiac forever. If he can regain his memory, then all problems would cease to be problems.”
