Night’s Nomenclature Chapter 179: Master helps you propose marriage?
Countdown to 168:00:00.
In the darkness of Prison No. 18, a warm breath suddenly came from a certain cell.
Gradually, the warm breath turned into burning heat.
The waves of heat were surging outward from the cell, like the evening tide in the equatorial zone.
In the two cells next to this cell, there were prisoners frantically beating the alloy gates and shouting for help.
Their cries for help became smaller and smaller, and the water in their bodies was rapidly evaporated by the high temperature. They entered a state of dehydration in just two minutes.
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was sleeping on the first floor, suddenly stood up. He came to the square and looked up, and looked at Ye Wan who also noticed something was wrong: "The awakening of the elemental system?"
"Yes," Ye Wan nodded: "It's Liu Dezhu's cell."
Lin Xiaoxiao was astonished: "What did this kid go through in the outside world to wake up?!"
The alloy gates on the square opened, and six robot prison guards lined up in two teams and entered neatly. The hive drones in the sky also fell downwards and flew towards the abnormal cell.
"Rescue people first," Ye Wan slightly bent his legs, jumped up and landed firmly on the corridor on the third floor like a tiger. He opened the two alloy gates next door and threw the exhausted prisoners inside. a place far away.
The heat wave in the cell was pouring out through the alloy gate, and the hair on Ye Wan's forehead began to feel scorched.
The next moment, a translucent force field suddenly gathered in front of him. When the heat swept through, he could still see the bell-shaped force field with a tight honeycomb structure.
Ye Wan stood in front of the cell door. There were three mechanical prison guards standing on both sides of the corridor where he was, and behind him was a drone hovering in mid-air.
He waited until the temperature inside began to drop before Ye Wan signaled the mechanical prison guard to open the alloy gate.
With a click, the alloy gate opened, and Liu Dezhu fell weakly to the ground. All the daily necessities in the room were burned to black or white ash.
The strange thing is that Liu Dezhu's clothes are still intact.
This guy was in a sluggish state, but he looked extremely excited and murmured: "I am an awakened person! I have really become an awakened person!"
"Come out," Ye Wan said, "I'll change your cell."
Liu Dezhu suddenly turned around: "Where is the boss? Is my boss back? I have to tell him the news. I succeeded!"
Ye Wan looked strange. He didn't expect that this guy's first reaction was to tell Qingchen about the news of his awakening.
He doesn’t know yet. In Liu Dezhu’s opinion, if his boss hadn’t told him to stay angry, he might not be able to wake up now...
At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao came to the door and said with a smile: "Your boss has no time to talk to you now."
"Then what level am I at now?" Liu Dezhu asked.
"C-level," Lin Xiaoxiao leaned against the door boredly: "Don't be happy so early, you still have a long way to go."
……
……
In the wilderness, beside a lonely bonfire, Li Shutong looked at Qingchen with a smile: "When you go back this time, do you still insist on practicing?"
"Yes," Qingchen nodded and took off his shirt, revealing his muscles.
Li Shutong was a little surprised: "I deliberately didn't remind you to practice, just to see how you were occasionally undisciplined, but I didn't expect you still persisted. It's strange that you have gained so much power after becoming a knight, and you can still Do you like the slow growth of your spiritual practice?"
Just like many people suddenly become rich and worth hundreds of millions, if someone drops ten dollars on the ground, the suddenly rich person may not be willing to bend down to pick it up.
Let alone ten yuan, they won’t appreciate it even if it’s several thousand yuan.
At this time, Li Shutong felt that if Qingchen became a billionaire and saw a penny coin embedded in the concrete pavement while walking, he, a student, would find a way to dig out the coin.
This made Li Shutong a little confused about what to say.
Other teachers expect students to be more self-disciplined, but he expects his students to relax occasionally.
This doesn’t feel right!
Qingchen put his shirt back on, added a few firewood to the bonfire and said, "Master, it's not that I am very self-disciplined, it's just that I remembered something. Lin Xiaoxiao once told me to go there as an ordinary person. I have experienced life and death, so I feel that continuing to practice will definitely come in handy."
Li Shutong sighed: "You are quite smart."
"Then the knight has become a transcendent after being promoted. How can he return to the state of an ordinary person?" Qingchen wondered.
"I also want to let you relax and tell you after you become a transcendent," Li Shutong said: "You try to reverse the frequency of the breathing technique."
Qingchen recalled the frequency of the breathing technique. In an instant, ice-blue lines bloomed on both sides of his cheeks, which were completely different from the previous flame lines.
Just hearing a click in his body, Qingchen felt that the genetic lock that had been opened in his body was re-locked!
The power rushing in the body was also withdrawn to a certain corner after this moment.
He suddenly looked at Li Shutong: "Teacher, do you need to do retrograde breathing every time you experience life and death?"
"Yes," Li Shutong nodded: "And the breathing technique cannot be interrupted, even if it is interrupted for one second, it must be restarted."
"That's it," Qingchen nodded.
He put away his breathing technique, but the gene lock did not reopen.
Li Shutong explained from the side: "Don't worry, after the reverse breathing technique ends, the gene lock will not be re-opened until an hour later. This can be regarded as a price for using the breathing technique. If you fail at the life-and-death test at any time, If the gene lock can be restarted, then the life-and-death barrier will be meaningless."
"In this way, wouldn't it be very dangerous for the knight to go through the life and death test? If someone deliberately obstructs it, the life and death test that was originally a narrow escape will become a ten-death experience," Qingchen asked.
"So, knights must keep secrets when they go through life and death situations," Li Shutong said.
"Isn't there a way to forcibly reopen the genetic lock?" Qingchen wondered: "It's better not to be slaughtered by others."
"Yes, but I hope you will never use it," Li Shutong said: "After you reverse the breathing technique, you can re-open the shackles by forcibly performing the forward breathing technique, but the price is that you will only be able to use it for the rest of your life. Able to stay in the present state."
Qingchen was silent for a moment: "There must be a senior who paid the price for this."
"Of course," Li Shutong said with emotion: "Your uncle Chen Jiazhang's realm was stagnant because of this incident. When he was completing the Emergence of Power, he was ambushed and blocked. At that time, he had no choice but to Able to stay at level A forever."
It turns out that the dangers that knights have to face when going through life and death situations come not only from nature, but also from sinister human hearts.
At this time, Qingchen felt his power after becoming an ordinary person, and it was clearly much stronger than before he climbed the cliff of Qingshan Mountain: "Teacher, I found a friend in the outer world who can control the force field to create a force field for me. Practice in the gravity chamber. How do I feel that after combining the gravity chamber with the breathing technique, the entry speed is several times faster?"
"Control the force field?" Li Shutong thought for a while: "It has been a long time since there has been an awakened person in the other world who can control the force field. Are you sure you control the force field and not the air?"
"Sure," Qingchen nodded: "Do you have any explanation?"
"Awakened people who can control the four basic forces are born to be brilliant," Li Shutong said: "Their upper limit is very high and their combat ability is extremely strong. In the history of the New Civilization Era, almost every such awakened person, All have played a pivotal role."
Qingchen was stunned. He didn't expect Yangyang's ability to be so powerful.
At this time, Li Shutong asked: "Is this friend of yours a boy or a girl? If he can help you build a gravity chamber for practice, you should have a good relationship."
"Girl," Qingchen answered honestly.
Li Shutong fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong, Master?" Qingchen asked.
"Do you know where she is in the other world? Does she have any family members?" Li Shutong looked at Qingchen: "Do you need Master to help you propose marriage?"
Qingchen: "...Master, I have no feelings for that girl, and I am very sure now that she suddenly appeared because she had her own purpose, so don't think too much about it."
"Okay," Li Shutong said.
"Master, where should we go next? Back to Prison No. 18?" Qingchen asked.
"I will definitely go back, but I have to do something in City 18 before I go back," Li Shutong explained with a smile: "How long is your countdown this time?"
"7 days."
"It will take four days to return to city No. 18. If the remaining three days are... enough!" Li Shutong said firmly.
Qingchen was a little confused. Why did this master take him there?
……
……
Countdown to 72:00:00.
District 6, City No. 18, night.
A silver-haired girl walked into the glass elevator of the Luoshen Building wearing white headphones and listening to soft music flowing like a stream.
She raised her slender wrist to press the elevator button on the 132nd floor, then turned around to enjoy the city night outside the transparent glass as the elevator climbed.
The girl is carrying a slanted shoulder bag, which contains her reader and personal belongings.
The bag has some scratches, and her friends always advise her to get a new one, but she always replies that she likes the bear pattern on the bag, so she is reluctant to change it.
In fact, the girl has not received a penny from her family since graduating from junior high school. She has to work part-time to earn high tuition fees, so that she can hope to get into a better university.
And going to college is just a new beginning. You must know that unless she is admitted to the Fire Military Academy or the Northwest Military Academy, she will have to bear higher college tuition fees.
Every university has scholarships, but the problem is that she does not have such a good resume to support her in getting the scholarship.
Thinking of this, the girl was a little confused, and she didn’t know where her future in life was.
Just when the elevator door was about to close, a hand blocked the elevator door.
The girl saw from the reflection on the glass that a middle-aged man and a teenager walked into the elevator. Both of them were wearing brand-new white sportswear and brand-new black peaked caps.
The brim of the hat was so low that the silver-haired girl could not see clearly the faces of the two men.
After the two people came in, they did not press the elevator button. Instead, they stood quietly behind the girl and looked out of the elevator window.
Remembering the rumors that the residents on the 89th floor were burglarized, she gradually tightened her handbag strap, and her clean nails also made marks on the strap.
However, as the girl looked at each other in the reflection, she always felt that the two of them did not look like those lawless club members.
At least she has never seen club members dressed so cleanly.
Yes, the girl’s first impression of these two people is actually that they are clean.
The elevator climbed quickly, and the girl's eardrums felt a little uncomfortable. This was because the elevator was too fast and the floor was too high, just like when a plane took off.
At this time, the elevator has reached the 91st floor. Outside the window, there are intricate overpasses spanning the sky, covering the entire city, connecting high-rise buildings and squares in the sky.
When the street lights are on, the overpass is like a nebula hovering across the city.
The boy behind her looked out the window and said: "With such complicated urban traffic, won't you get lost?"
“I don’t know,” the middle-aged man replied, “Teacher used to have a driver when he went out.”
The girl secretly pouted, now in the era of autonomous driving, who has nothing to do to find a driver?
Although this overpass is complicated, you only need to tell the artificial intelligence your destination when driving.
With a ding, the elevator arrived at the 132nd floor.
The silver-haired girl was too nervous to move, but the middle-aged man and the boy walked out of the elevator first and headed straight into the corridor.
After the other person got out of the elevator, she slowly turned around, only to see the other person pressed the code in front of a door, and with a click, the door lock opened.
The silver-haired girl didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief until then. It turned out that he was a neighbor, and he lived opposite her house!
The two people didn't press the elevator button when they came in, which scared her a little bit.
But at this time, the silver-haired girl was a little curious. No one had lived in the house opposite her house for a long time. She had not moved in with the new landlord after the sudden renovation some time ago. Why did she suddenly visit her late at night?
Strange.
On the other side, Qingchen took off his hat after entering the house: "That girl seemed to be very scared just now. Isn't the security in City 18 too bad? ~IndoMTL.com~ There is nothing like this in the world. In this situation, girls don’t have to worry too much when walking on the street in the middle of the night...at least that’s the case in big cities."
Li Shutong said: "This is a problem left over from history. The federal government once abolished one-third of the police force because of one incident, which resulted in a frequent increase in the crime rate."
"Abolish the police force?" Qingchen couldn't imagine it.
"Not only is the police force abolished, it is even hard to imagine that except for the Shangsan District, most of the traffic cameras in the other districts are in disrepair," Li Shutong said calmly: "It's okay, you can only live here realistically in the future. Feel what a sick country this is."
"Master, what do you want to do is change it?" Qingchen asked.
Li Shutong smiled: "Don't ask so many questions, let's visit your new house first."
Qingchen looked around and saw that the 80-square-meter one-bedroom, one-living-room, one-bathroom and one-kitchen space was very large because there was only one bedroom.
At the end of the living room is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, which offers a panoramic view of District 6 of the city.
The sofas and appliances have been placed in the living room, and everything looks brand new.
