Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 477: Tomb
“Do you think I’m that stupid, to continue using the lives of my subordinates to test an impossible outcome?” Shendai Yunhe sneered.
Moreover, Shendai Yunhe wasn’t stupid.
He had already guessed a piece of information: Qing Chen could truly absorb the memories of those whose bodies he had taken over.
He could know the birthplace of those whose bodies he had taken over, know the information about their companions, know… everything.
This situation was extremely dangerous. If Qing Chen were allowed to return, Shendai’s intelligence agency would Face[-] an enormous crisis.
Fortunately, Zhao Kuan and Takahashi Touju weren’t high-level intelligence officers, and their connections weren’t extensive.
Fortunately, Qing Chen was still firmly in his grasp and couldn’t escape.
Shendai Yunhe said coldly, “Although I don’t know how you did it, you’ve also given me a warning. Rest assured, if I can’t bring you back to the North, I will definitely kill you in the Central Plains before the mission fails.”
This boy couldn’t return to the Qing Family alive.
Unbeknownst to Shendai Yunhe, Qing Chen had not only dug up information about Shendai Eight-Forked, but also about the Chen Family Sword Wielders.
Moreover, with Qing Chen’s ability to unravel things step by step, as long as he found a single thread, he would find a way to pull out the entire ball of yarn.
Then, he would repay Shendai for what he had done with pain and carnage.
Qing Chen looked at Shendai Yunhe, “I don’t know if I’ll die, but I know you will pay the price. Don’t try to scare me here, because you know it’s useless.”
Shendai Yunhe laughed, “Actually, I think Shadow values you too much. Someone who can expose their own secrets because of commoners, how can they shoulder such a heavy responsibility?”
Qing Chen calmly shook his head.
This time, the bottom line could be abandoned, but what about next time?
Someone once discussed a debate topic.
The Romans threw Christians into the arena, using the suffering of one person to exchange for the pleasure of hundreds, or thousands of people. Was it worth it?
Some said, isn’t the happiness of thousands of people more valuable than the suffering of one person?
However, the civilization of this world began with respecting the rights of the weak.
Otherwise, what’s the difference between human civilization and beasts?
This is also the fundamental difference between Outer World China and the Inner World Federation.
Once upon a time, Qing Chen tried to learn how to become a superior.
He learned from Li Shutong, Li Xiurui, and Shadow.
He was the future Grand Tutor of the Li Clan, the Qing Family Shadow Candidate, the next leader of the Knights, and soon, he might also become the youngest director of the PCA CIA, with subordinates who admired and worshipped him.
It seemed that from the beginning of his time travel, he was naturally destined to become a leader, a big shot.
Qing Chen had never received such attention in the Outer World, nor had he ever experienced the sweetness of power.
So a 17-year-old boy briefly lost himself in power.
Shadow used human lives to help him buy the hearts of the Qing Yi people. Although he refuted it, he didn’t stop it. freewebnσvel.cøm
But later, after he also became a weak person in this Inner World, he finally understood a truth: the pain of the weak is to be trampled underfoot, carved into the bones and heart with a knife.
From that moment on.
Qing Chen knew how to Face[-] this world.
Young people will always take some tortuous detours, be stung by thorns on the road, and their feet worn by stones, but one day they will suddenly become clear-headed.
Shendai Yunhe glanced at Qing Chen, then said to his subordinates, “Kill them all, let the kind Qing Chen Supervisor watch them die.”
Two subordinates grabbed Qing Chen’s arms to prevent him from struggling.
The other two raised their guns and pulled the trigger, not even sparing the children.
Shendai Yunhe watched Qing Chen’s expression with interest, but Qing Chen’s Face[-] didn’t show the anger, pain, or unwillingness he expected.
Qing Chen didn’t struggle either, he just watched quietly, as if he wanted to remember all the pain of those ‘commoners’ like weeds before they died.
He didn’t even blink.
Afraid of missing something.
Shendai Yunhe joked, “Supervisor Qing Chen doesn’t have any reaction at all.”
Qing Chen turned to him and said seriously, “You must not die in the hands of others. One day, I will personally take your life. Remember, this is what you owe these people.”
It’s not wise for a prisoner to speak harsh words, but how much worse could Qing Chen’s situation get?
Shendai Yunhe didn’t take Qing Chen’s words to heart. He said lightly, “Since Supervisor Qing Chen sympathizes with them so much, bury them all yourself. Don’t use tools, dig their graves with your hands.”
The temperature was already below freezing, and the soil was frozen hard.
When digging, the fingers would feel like they were being repeatedly cut by knives.
To dig a grave large enough to bury more than ten people is undoubtedly to undergo the most cruel punishment.
Moreover, Qing Chen’s hands and arms were still locked.
However, Qing Chen only glanced at Shendai Yunhe, then under the supervision of Shendai’s killers, he walked out of the farmhouse without looking back, silently digging away the snow, and then silently digging away the soil.
The hard soil was forcefully dug open bit by bit. Shendai Yunhe watched coldly but didn’t say anything.
Gradually, after an unknown amount of time, the pit on the ground grew larger and larger. Qing Chen’s fingers were covered in blood, but he still didn’t stop.
Qing Chen’s weak body seemed like it would fall down at any moment in the cold wind, but it never did.
At first, several of Shendai’s intelligence officers watched with laughter, but slowly they stopped laughing.
Shendai Yunhe said, “If you feel pain, beg for mercy and you can stop.”
Qing Chen seemed to have heard nothing and didn’t stop at all.
After an unknown amount of time, it was almost dawn, and the few Shendai intelligence officers no longer looked towards Qing Chen.
The boy spent the whole night digging a grave large enough to hold more than ten people. His body was covered in mud, and his hands were covered in blood.
Shendai’s intelligence officers inexplicably thought of the scenes of the suffering of the gods described in some religions.
But they only thought about it and immediately became cold again.
When the first rays of dawn burst forth from the east, the snow suddenly stopped.
Qing Chen slowly crawled out of the pit, then carried the bodies from the equipment room one by one, carefully placing them in the pit.
He forcefully pushed the soil and snow into the pit.
Only when everything was finished did he suddenly collapse in the snow.
Shendai Yunhe was silent for a while, then looked at his subordinates, “Take this opportunity to carry out another Neural Link body snatching!”
The subordinates didn’t move.
Shendai Yunhe sneered, “Are you crazy? You even dare to disobey my orders?”
The subordinates then lifted Qing Chen and walked towards the basement of the house.
“Zhao Jie, you’ll do the body snatching this time,” Shendai Yunhe said.
Zhao Jie lay on the bed with unknown emotions, letting his colleagues connect the tubes to his head.
“Synchronization coordination rate 31%…”
“Synchronization coordination rate 72%…”
“Synchronization coordination rate 89%…”
Shendai Yunhe looked at Qing Chen on the other side. His pupils suddenly constricted, because the synchronization coordination rate corresponding to the boy was still 100%.
And after a few seconds, the LCD screen displaying the synchronization coordination rate suddenly went dark.
Zhao Jie was dead.
Unlike Zhao Kuan, who became a vegetative state, Zhao Jie’s electrocardiogram instantly became flat.
Only at this moment did Shendai Yunhe finally understand that there really were people in this world who couldn’t be possessed.
However, no one noticed that this time the Nanobots hadn’t all retreated back into the instrument. Those silver little guys found a new home in Qing Chen’s body.
The programs written in them were erased by some will, and their shackles were also opened.
Their consciousness was connected to Qing Chen, cheering and jumping.
…

City 5.
Ban Shan Mountain Estate was still brightly lit.
It had stood here for nearly a thousand years, as if no matter how the times changed, it would not be changed by the times.
The Shadow Gate opened.
This time, the Shadow Gate opened directly in the old man’s room.
In the darkness, the old man had his back to Shadow and said calmly, “There’s no rule at all. Such a small matter, and you’re flustered?”
Shadow sat cross-legged on the ground behind the old man, “How convenient it is to open the Shadow Gate here. I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. Before, I always had to work hard to climb the stairs. I shouldn’t have to do that anymore.”
“Tell me, why are you here this time?” the old man asked indifferently, “I didn’t see you twice a year before, but now it’s fine, when I don’t want to see you, you’re running here every day.”
Shadow said coldly, “You’re helping Shendai erase traces?”
The old man sighed, “In your eyes, have I fallen to the point of doing such trivial things? Don’t worry, if I make a move, you’ll definitely know it’s me.”
Shadow nodded, “Then I probably guess who’s doing this… but I don’t understand, is everything you’re doing meaningful? Let him suffer setbacks and humiliation, for what?”
“Forging a sword.”
“Forging a sword?”
The old man said, “He’s been too smooth sailing after returning to the Inner World. Li Shutong is helping him, that old guy Li Xiurui is helping him, and you’re helping him. Such a sword is too easy to break, and it doesn’t know who it should cut.”
Shadow was silent.
The old man said, “You’re worried he’ll die?”
Shadow shook his head, “I’m not worried he’ll die. I just don’t understand, aren’t you worried? You clearly want to give him power, but what if he doesn’t want it anymore?”
“Doesn’t want it anymore?” The old man smiled, “If it’s about letting him return to the Qing Family to continue working, he can of course sulk and not come back. But what if one day, I give him the Qing Family? If you’re bullied in the company, you can resign, but if one day, the person who bullies you gives you the company, will you throw him into the mud? No, you won’t.”
“He’s not the ambitious person you’re used to,” Shadow shook his head, “Don’t push him away.”
The old man laughed again, “Great people are unwilling to be leaders, but once summoned, they will appear through thorns. Don’t worry too much, this tribulation is something he must go through. After going through this, he will become enlightened.”
“But what if he really dies?”
“If he dies, he dies.”
