Naming Technique of the Night - Chapter 1926 - 991: The Final Journey (Part 3)
However, when the soldier fell, the Arbiter elder was already aware something was wrong and swiftly dodged.
The bullet grazed past his temple, striking the corridor ceiling, bouncing twice, and hitting who knows where.
The Arbiter elder instinctively felt something was amiss: although soldiers inside the fortress carried firearms, they were required to engage their safeties.
Now the soldier just happened to fall, conveniently forgot to engage the safety, and the bullet came directly at him. How could there be such coincidences?
Not good!
There’s a problem!
The curse went awry!
Just as the Arbiter elder was about to rush to the command room to report the situation, he saw not far away a sealed pipe deformed by a bullet strike, with a screw slowly being forced out by intense air pressure!
With a bang, the sharp screw ricocheted off the corridor wall and directly pinned into the Arbiter elder’s temple…
How unlucky!
Such misfortune, like death shadowing you, perhaps you can escape it the first time, but the shadow of death will always appear in a stranger way in front of you, ultimately taking your life.
A curse of inevitable death within 24 hours!
A commotion erupted inside the Storm, and the Duke of Storm City ordered an investigation into the Arbiter’s situation!
However, without exception, all the Arbiters had died in their rooms. Some accidentally tripped and died, some mistakenly consumed something they were allergic to and suffocated after their airways swelled, some asthma patients couldn’t find their inhalers, and some lay in the bathtub, their carotid arteries sliced by falling lamp fragments from the ceiling…
Their deaths were bizarre, yet the commonality was that none survived.
The Duke of Storm City stood in the command room with a grim face: “It’s black magic backlash; they chanted the curse of life and death and suffered the backlash.”
A Drama Master frowned: “Why would it backlash? Is it because the Parental Guild has some taboo items we don’t know about?”
“No,” the Duke of Storm City shook his head: “It’s their level of cultivation, all higher than or equal to the Arbiter’s level!”
No one expected, in just a short time without seeing the Parental Guild, their power had ascended another tier.
The Duke of Storm City finally understood why the Parental Guild, after just passing through Jian Menguan, could immediately launch a surprise attack on the orc army in the north. It’s because the Parental Guild had emerged with a large number of A-Class experts!
Last time, black magic forced the Parental Guild into exile, they were compelled to abandon City No. 10. Everyone hid in Kuroharara like turtles.
This time, the Parental Guild did nothing, yet led to the complete annihilation of the Arbiter.
In fact, when the Parental Guild embarked on its long march, the old man on Ginkgo Mountain had been waiting for this moment.
The Parental Guild’s revenge truly begins at this moment.
On the distant wilderness, Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu were confidently leading their team through the mountains.
Xiao Qi teased with a limp: “You’re the Xiao Jiu of our Parental Guild, but see, boss’s martial aunt Wang Xiaojiu is already a Demigod, and you’re only A-Class, that’s not quite there yet.”
Xiao Jiu retorted irritably: “Is that even comparable? She’s a legitimate Knight… By the way, after those reserve knights inquired about our intentions, where did they go?”
“I don’t know. Boss’s mentor Uncle Li Dong took them; maybe they went on to challenge another fate-bending hurdle,” Xiao Qi replied: “I’m worried about whether the Arbiter has cursed us now. Those bastards pushed us to run away before, and we should reclaim the ground now.”
“Hahaha, I guess they’re suffering a backlash. If circumstances allowed, I’d definitely check out their bizarre deaths!”
“Having won a major victory, where next?” Xiao Jiu asked.
“Of course, fight another victory. Ni Ergou mentioned he found another orc troop, let’s go take them down!” Xiao Qi shouted in the setting sun: “Sun sets behind the western hills, red clouds fly, the warrior shoots the target and returns to camp, returns to camp~”
The song echoed far, and the gloom in everyone’s heart at the Parental Guild had dispersed.
…
…
The atmosphere inside the Storm was especially heavy, the Duke of Storm City sat silently in the command seat while the Drama Masters had already departed on an airship; they were to infiltrate the orc troops, foretelling fortune and misfortune for each orc army.
At that moment, a soldier cautiously spoke: “Your Grace, we’ve located the Qing Air Force. I’ve locked onto them on radar. Judging by the number of airships, it should be the main force of Qing Yu’s Troops, and Commander Qing Yu should be in the Scepter Sky Fortress!”
The Duke’s visage slightly improved: “Annihilating them, swift victory!”
While the orc army on the ground drew everyone’s attention, the Storm had already disengaged from the orc army, appearing before Qing’s Air Force!
They aimed to eliminate Qing’s last aerial threat at the fastest speed possible!
Thus, the orc army can charge unimpeded.
As for the Parental Guild… the Duke of Storm City believes that mere reliance on the Parental Guild isn’t enough to balance the orc army.
