Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1913 - 989: The Final Journey (Part 3)

Luo Wanya stood in front of a military tent, puzzled, and asked Qing Yi, ”Don’t we need to keep going?”

Qing Yi shook his head, ”No, you need to keep going forward. Twenty kilometers ahead, the prepared Key of Gate will connect you to another place.”

”Why didn’t we use the Key of Gate before?” Luo Wanya asked bitterly.

Qing Yi shook his head again, ”This is Ginkgo Mountain’s decision, we have no rights to question it.”

Luo Wanya asked, ”How long can we rest at Jian Menguan?”

”No rest,” Qing Yi replied, ”There are over ten thousand war robots outside Jian Menguan, and no one knows when the barrier holding them will loosen. We will monitor the barrier constantly, and if it loosens, we will launch missiles immediately... But if the missile bombing fails, everyone here at Jian Menguan will have to buy you more time so you can successfully pass through the Key of Gate.”

Parent Association Members glanced at each other, not expecting to have to continue their journey after reaching Jian Menguan.

At this point, many people’s physical strength had already reached its limit.

Or rather, everyone had reached their limits long ago and couldn’t remember how many times they’ve broken through their limits.

”Where is behind the Key of Gate?” Luo Wanya wondered.

”I don’t know, it’s also the old man’s decision,” Qing Yi calmly said, ”Keep moving forward, your destination is not here.”

Luo Wanya seemed to feel something, ”Your destination... is here?”

Qing Yi grinned, ”I don’t know.”

Luo Wanya took a deep breath and turned to Xiao Qi, ”Keep moving forward!”

Tears were heard from Jindai Sorajima in the team, only Jindai Yunlo patiently comforted.

Xiao Qi, carrying the little monk, continued toward their unknown fate, and the vast team set out once more,

...

...

Qing Yi watched the Parent Association’s retreating figure, while Qing Kun came up behind him, grumbling, ”Why aren’t you leaving?”

Qing Yi turned and looked at his father, ”I came with a task, I can’t leave without completing it.”

Qing Kun hesitated, ”What is your Spy Bureau doing here, gathering intelligence?”

”You might have forgotten, the Spy Bureau’s duties aren’t just gathering intelligence, but also infiltration, assassination, decapitation,” Qing Yi said, ”The most dangerous tasks of Qing’s Family have always been done by the Spy Bureau.”

Qing Kun cursed, looking around, and suddenly noticed a hovering airship’s hatch that had never opened since Qing Yi arrived, ”What’s inside that?”

Qing Yi shook his head, ”Please respect yourself, even though we’re of the same rank, the Spy Bureau’s confidentiality level is higher, please don’t pry.”

Qing Kun became anxious, ”Is there something inside comparable to the Tyrant?”

As a high-ranking member of Qing’s Family, Qing Kun knew well that the Tyrant that blasted the 18th city and Black Water City Fleet into the sky came from Qing’s Family, and it’s likely the hovering airship held something similar.

Qing Yi thought for a moment and said, ”This one’s power isn’t as great.”

Qing Kun grabbed his son’s shoulders and roared, ”Do you know I am guarding Jian Menguan to let you live to see victory, and now you’re sent to die? Then what’s the point of me guarding Jian Menguan?”

Qing Yi looked his father in the eye, ”Aren’t I part of Qing’s Family? Others can die, but I can’t?”

”Of course not!” Qing Kun said, ”I can’t manage others, but I can manage you.”

At this moment, Qing Kun suddenly realized that his son had somehow grown taller, tall enough to look him in the eye.

Qing Yi said, ”Someone, take away Commander Qing Kun. Now issuing order from the Command Headquarters, all Qing’s Family troops in Jian Menguan area begin evacuation. After the Parent Association passes through the Key of Gate, Qing’s Family troops will follow.”

As he spoke, Yan Chunmi brought people to quickly restrain Qing Kun.

The Faceless Army, as Qing Kun’s guards, quickly confronted the Spy Bureau, and Qing Yi looked at the Faceless Army’s captain, ”Follow orders!”

Qing Kun, held by his arms, shouted, ”Don’t listen to him, grab this kid and evacuate together!”

Qing Yi looked seriously at the Faceless Army, ”In times of life and death, there’s no room for sentiment. These twelve thousand war robots are a key component of the West Continent, they must be permanently stopped here. Qing Hua, prepare two hovering airships, we’re ready to leave.”

Qing Kun asked blankly, ”You kid... can’t you remotely bomb them with missiles? Or we just pre-place bombs besides the barrier, once it loosens, explode them.”

Qing Yixiao said, ”Yes, that’s my plan. I never said I’d die, why are you flustered? After placing the missiles I’ll retreat to a safe distance, no need for this dramatic farewell.”

Qing Kun paused, ”Then let me do it, it’s simple, I can handle it.”

Qing Yi shook his head, ”Not safe. Since this task is assigned to me, I must complete it.”

He boarded a hovering airship as he spoke.

Before closing the hatch, Qing Yi turned back to Qing Kun, ”Father, thank you.”

Three hovering airships took off, including the one carrying the micro-nuclear warhead ’Greedy.’

They flew straight towards the direction outside Jian Menguan, against the flow of the evacuating troops, heading to the barrier direction.

The Faceless Army beside Qing Kun said, ”Young master has grown up.”

...

...

Inside Jian Menguan, Qing’s Family troops suddenly noticed the Parent Association’s team neatly divided into thousands of units, each with their own captain and vice-captain, and each unit was lined up perfectly without chaos.
