Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 938: 579, Efficient Enemy Killing

According to the predictions of the Garrison Forces, after Qing Chen snipes Jindai Yunhe tonight, he will definitely find a place to hide.

They temporarily summoned Jindai Sorajima back, hoping to find this “Daytime Boss” and the people around him.

As a result, how could they have expected that this Daytime Boss, who had just caused such a commotion and escaped danger, would launch another attack within an hour?

When the officer saw Qing Chen pull the trigger in the cloud mirror, he instinctively wanted to take cover.

Though he knew full well that the rooftop where the opponent was located was several kilometers away, not even an Immortal could shoot from such a distance, since the maximum range of an anti-material sniper rifle is only about nine kilometers.

Yet, he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of apprehension.

A few minutes later, a message came through: A high-ranking Time Traveler from the Secret Bureau of the Outer World was dead.

The deceased was once a subordinate of Jindai Yunyi and was en route to the residence of Jindai Yasuhito.

The high-ranking member of the Secret Bureau of the Outer World took an armor-piercing bullet on the road and died in the hovering car.

Coincidentally, when the hovering car fell to the ground, it hit and killed a passing Jindai Time Traveler.

No one is sure whether this was a coincidence, as achieving this would require calculating the flight speed of the hovering car and its drop point.

After the cloud mirror screen went dark, the Garrison Forces immediately sent people to the shooting site.

But Qing Chen didn’t leave; he just turned at an angle on the rooftop, aiming at a window in the opposite building where a Jindai Time Traveler was discreetly pulling the curtain to look outside.

612 meters away, with no stress.

Qing Chen pulled the trigger.

He didn’t stop, but instead turned to the 7 o’clock position and pulled the trigger again.

He fired six consecutive shots, killing six Time Travelers in succession.

From the start, this was his precisely chosen position.

Even that fallen hovering car was just a lure.

After getting facial recognition data from Shadow, Qing Chen located everyone on the number 22 map in his mind and discovered that seven Time Travelers lived near this building.

Finding them one by one was too troublesome, so he created a spectacular car crash to draw everyone to the windows for a peek, and then kill them one by one.

Unaware of the situation, Time Travelers found it hard to resist looking at such a violent explosion outside the windows.

As it turned out, 6 out of 7 Time Travelers took the bait.

This efficiency in killing is much more convenient than going door to door.

Qing Chen put away the black sniper, turned and went downstairs, reaching the 82nd floor of the building effortlessly, opening a door, and using a handgun to shoot the Time Traveler who came to investigate the noise, then continued to go downstairs.

Everything was calculated perfectly.

When the Garrison Forces officer arrived, listening to the report of the dead spread out, he stood there not knowing how to react.

He had been with the Garrison Forces for so many years and never seen an assassin so audacious.

The officer led the team to the rooftop, silently observed through binoculars the shattered windows of several buildings around and the corpses behind them.

A chill ran down his spine.

However, at that moment, he saw a black-clad assassin lying in snow on the rooftop of a building 1200 meters away, pulling the trigger.

“Damn!” At this moment, the officer realized that the people who came to check the scene on the rooftop were also among the prey!

But now, realizing this is too late.

Just as the officer turned to run, a bullet pierced through his chest, going through three people in succession, stopping in the third person’s corpse.

The Garrison Forces of City 22 hadn’t experienced such brutal urban slaughter for a long time.

In the past hundred years, no assassin dared to kill so ferociously on the Jindai’s territory!

Does this calculating ability really exist?

At this moment, the only one who had experienced a precise pursuit, Jindai Yunhe was quite sure that it was all calculated.

This terrifying calculating ability he had experienced before, it felt like falling into a trap right upon entering the battlefield.

A very unpleasant experience.

But none of that mattered; what was important was that this assassin was too bold. Other assassins would flee immediately if they missed their first strike, but this one was relentless.

Completely violating assassination principles.

This reminded everyone of the fear of being crazily avenged by Knights once.

In a hospital room, Jindai Yunhe lay calmly in bed.

Not far away, the somewhat aged Jindai Yasuhito stood by the window with hands behind his back.

Jindai Yunhe, seemingly recalling something, said, “Uncle, Qing Chen was captured, and then Uncle Li Dong along with the Daytime Boss began a frenzied retaliation, even leading to the death of that ancestral figure. I’ve read the clan’s chronicle; 800 years ago when we first came to this continent, someone once gathered troops to kill a Knight, and the remaining 11 Knights destroyed our six military bases. Later, they fought to kill three more Knights, losing eight Directors and a Family Head in return. If I knew you sent me to capture a Knight’s heir, I would definitely not go, at least not be the one to endure all this.”

At this time, Jindai Yunhe was very sure that Qing Chen was a Knight, as only a Knight could cut through his arm with a strand of hair underwater.

But Qing Chen is C-Class, whereas the Daytime Boss has always been seen as strong, even suspected to be A-Class. The difference in their strength is too significant.

Jindai Yunhe had fought with “two people,” and in a short month, their strength was vastly different, and their fighting styles were completely different,

Qing Chen excelled at close combat, never using a sniper rifle even when facing a pack of wolves.

The Daytime Boss was more skilled at long-range sniping, with a sniping ability that was extraordinary.

So Jindai Yunhe concluded that these were two different people, senior and junior brothers from the Knight Organization.

The previous generation of Knights had three people: Uncle Li Dong, Chen Jiazhang, Wang Xiaojiu.

Two people in this generation of Knights is also not surprising.

But no matter what, Jindai Yunhe felt he should not bear the wrath of the Knight Organization alone.

“Regretting it?” Jindai Yasuhito spoke calmly: “The number of Knights has dwindled today; they don’t have as much deterrent power. Even Uncle Li Dong would retreat in front of the Northern Fleet Group.”

Jindai Yunhe reminded, “Uncle, if I were you, I wouldn’t stand by the window under the shadow of a sniper. Better pull the curtains for me, too, please.”

Jindai Yasuhito pondered and said, “The area around the hospital is completely locked down, and within a 4-kilometer radius, there are Garrison Forces. I don’t believe any sniper in this world can kill me at such a distance.”

As he spoke, he pulled the curtains and sat on a chair in the shadowy corner of the ward.

Jindai Yasuhito asked, “You are the person who has fought with this Daytime Boss the most. He is very likely the next-generation leader of the Knights. Tell me everything you know about him. We have inherited enmity with the Knights; there’s no avoiding it.”

Jindai Yunhe said, “Caution mixed with ferocity; he calculated everything and dared to come alone to entrap me. Not only that, he also anticipated that we couldn’t fully confront him now.”

This calculation even included another element: currently, the main forces of the Jindai Consortium were entangled with the Li Family and Qing’s Family in the south; eight of the Ten Eunuchs were with many experts and Garrison Forces in City 21, attending to the Jindai family’s ancestors’ funerals.

In the correlation between the Inner and Outer World, City 22 corresponds to Kobe, City 21 corresponds to Tokyo, City 20 corresponds to Osaka.

The death of the Jindai family ancestors was not just a simple fall of a Demigod.

In the past era, Jindai Chika had always shared power with the Family Head, and now with his death, there must be a power transition.

Just like when the Master of the Li Family, Li Xiurui, was about to die, countless people wanted to take advantage of the power transition to gain their own interests.

It’s the best opportunity for the Patriarch Faction to relentlessly pursue the Onmyoji Faction, even within the Patriarch Faction, there would also be problems with uneven distribution.

This is the best time for outsiders to covet the Jindai Consortium.

Jindai Yunhe was in City 22 because he planned to counterkill the Daytime Boss. The clan wouldn’t allow him to drag trouble to City 21, so he could only use City 22 as the battleground.

Jindai Yunlo was in City 22 because he was a marginal figure in the clan, for example, Jindai Yunxiu and Jindai Sorajima were originally in City 21.

Jindai Yasuhito was in City 22 because, as the son of the Family Head, it was impossible for him to miss out on the division of the spoils, so he was fearless.

In fact, this was also the reason Qing Chen was eager to kill Jindai Yunhe, because after this funeral juncture, it would be difficult for him to leave the Jindai Consortium’s cities unscathed.

Jindai Yasuhito looked at Jindai Yunhe from the corner, “You insist on not going under full anesthesia; are you afraid I might use neural connection to take over your body?”

Jindai Yunhe shook his head, “I’m not afraid of you, Uncle. You are afraid of being taken over, which is why you haven’t cultivated properly and have stayed at C-Class, not daring to advance. What I’m afraid of is the other Director who came with you to City 22, Jindai Jingyan. As far as I know, he’s been looking for a suitable body, and this time when he learned of my injury, he suddenly returned, so how could I not guard against it?”

Jindai Yasuhito remained silent.

Jindai Yunhe said, “Jindai Yunlo said we are a cursed clan. Although I’ve always been at odds with him, there’s some truth to what he says. We betrayed the Genji, cursed by the Genji…”

“Shut up,” Jindai Yasuhito sneered, “The clan’s patience is also limited; it won’t let him defame the family’s reputation like this forever.”

Feeling he spoke harshly, he softened his tone, saying, “Take care of yourself. This time I called back Jindai Sorajima to avenge you. Rest assured. In ten days, I’ll let you take the Daytime Boss’s head to go with me to City 21 for the memorial service.”

Speaking, Jindai Yasuhito turned to leave the room.

Outside the door, an officer said in a low voice, “Director Yasuhito, just now another 12 Time Travelers were sniped. The opponent calculated the route and killed 12 people in one go.”

Jindai Yasuhito: “Gather all the Time Travelers in City 22 and have the Garrison Forces lock down the area.”

“Understood.”

…

…

Outside City 22, a dilapidated off-road vehicle was driving over.

Inside the car, someone was humming a tune, listening to the broadcast where a pleasant-sounding female announcer said, “Breaking news: Recently, a man committed a series of gun murders in City 22. The Jindai Consortium has now released images of multiple suspects and offered a reward of 30 million each.”

The person in the car exclaimed, “Still late! If I hadn’t taken so much effort to calm that boss, I should have come earlier. How could I miss such an exciting event!”

The vehicle arrived at the entry gate of City 22 and slowly stopped. The young man in the car rolled down the window, smiling as he handed over a pass, “Hurry up and let me through!”

However, the young man suddenly noticed that all the entry officials who saw him were horrified.

The young man sighed, “Again!?”

In the next moment, the alloy gates before and after the entry began to slowly descend. Someone shouted loudly, “Suspect spotted! Requesting support! Requesting support!”

Zard sat in the car, a bit helpless, “What the hell did I come here for?!”

As he spoke, the metallic storm above the entry tunnel activated, and in just a second, turned the old off-road vehicle into a sieve. But Zard, sitting inside, suddenly transformed into flowing sand, slipping through the cracks between the seat and the car, and seeping into the ground like a drop of water.
